God Of Tricksters

Ronald was driving continuously without rest. Felix offered some help, but Ronald refused since he wanted to settle it with his own hand.

He knew the government was at fault right now, so he wanted to bring some justice to the wronged people.

While he was driving, Felix kept looking around to check whether people were following them or not.

Theo had told him about the tracker, so he believed they wouldn't go as far as following them.

At the very least, they knew Ronald wouldn't destroy the evidence. So, they could simply retrieve it and buy some time from Ronald before they published the evidence first.

This way, they could justify that Ronald had stolen the evidence.

They waited patiently as Ronald finally went off the road, indicating they were already close.

Without hesitation, their teams immediately went on stand by, preparing to retrieve it right after Ronald left the area. They also tried to pinpoint the location by using the tracking device.

Ronald arrived in a small field covered by dried leaves. It was already spring, so the area was covered by orange leaves.

After that, Felix immediately worked by utilizing his Magic Power to blow the leaves away. According to the information, there was a secret entrance in this area, and it didn't take too long for Felix to find it. 𝚋e𝚍no𝚟𝚎𝚕.𝚌om

"This way." Felix waved his hand while pushing the dirt with his control.

"This is…" Underneath the leaves and dirt hid a small trapdoor. He never expected the entrance would be this visible. But since they were quite far away from the road and nearest building, they could understand it wouldn't be that easy to find unless they found some clues about its location.

After opening the trap door, Ronald saw stairs leading to an area fifty feet underground. He hurriedly went down to check the evidence.

"Hmm?" They immediately found a big hall after descending. The hall was plain white and had nothing but a few tools to sanitize themselves.

Since the equipment didn't work anymore, Ronald continued with Felix while bringing out his Skylink.

They stopped at the junction where he had to choose one of the three paths. Though, Ronald was sure he had to go to the right first since his reporter's instinct was telling him he would get a huge scoop in this area.

As he expected, there was a huge room waiting for him. When he entered the area, they could see a few humans' skins. There was no flesh, bone, or anything to fill the inside, just like the skin the monster used to occupy their body.

It would grant them a perfect body that could almost fool everything, but unfortunately, Theo was there to stop them.

Ronald took a picture of the skin hanging on the rail. It seemed they were drying the skin up.

As long as he could get their information, he might be able to find traces of missing people.

Felix also gathered the evidence by recording their entire journey.

"This is… How can they even research something like this?" Ronald gasped. "Look at these skins… They don't seem to be skins made completely from scratch. Instead, it looks like they were ripped apart from the original person.

"Don't tell me… The Vice President captured the people and skinned them alive? And this facility patched their skins so that those monsters could use them?

"Just looking at these skins alone, I could see around one hundred skins… Sir King of Fighters had found more than one hundred people as well.

"I can't imagine what would happen if they weren't found. The operation would continue and their number would increase every day. As a result, we would have an army that was ready to backstab us.

"When that happens, we won't know how we fall. No wonder Sir Theo wanted me to publicize everything."

Ronald gasped and started taking pictures again. There were so many pictures that could be used as a headline. It showed how important each shot was.

After that, he went in the opposite direction and found a similar place. But this time, it wasn't the skin. Instead, it was the slimy red liquid that seemed to be filling the body.

"This… Don't tell me… The liquid itself is not a monster? Instead, it's a human? They're formed by human blood that has been extracted from their bodies. After that, they're using it to create a living creature like that of a monster?

"The Vice President is still in custody, so we don't know if there's a chance this operation will restart or not. Still, there might be another place like this that is still operating… Is the Vice President trying to create a monster? No, if I have to say it, it's more like the Vice President is trying to find a way to turn a human into a monster.

"That was why the monsters attacked the base. Then, don't tell me… The red liquid we hunted were humans? I don't know how to say this anymore, but this experiment is pretty screwed."

After getting all the pictures he wanted, Ronald continued to the last path, which seemed to be an office area as well as their dining area. He didn't find much about them since he didn't understand what they were talking about in the papers.

There was no way for a normal person like Ronald to hack the system as well. So, he could only grab a bunch of papers lying on the ground along with some Skylink that could fit in his arms.

"Well, I could find some technicians to crack open the Skylink to get all the information."

Ronald believed this was a treasure chest for a journalist like him. However, all the words he had spoken earlier were transmitted directly to the agents that brought him to Theo's territory.

And all of them were stumped, knowing how worse the condition would become if the evidence came out from Ronald instead of them.

Without saying anything, all of them agreed to make sure they got the evidence and publicized it before Ronald.
