"Here you go. Recover the data from these." Theo brought a bucket filled with the storage chip of the technologies. Because they were small, it was hard to destroy them since the design of the Skylink was protecting the mory chip.
Hence, they wouldn't be destroyed unless they burned the whole ti. Of course, there were so that got destroyed by luck since the other party hit the right spot.
However, Theo managed to save more than half of them, so it should be enough to get whatever data inside.
"Are you serious?" Maya frowned. "We're still getting quarantined here. There's no way I can do it now. At least wait until the quarantine is over, and I'll get the information as soon as possible.
"Of course, we can do it now if you're willing to work for it. But the fact that you're giving this ans you have another important thing to do, right?"
"Yeah. If you need help, you can ask Millie about it."
"Don't worry. I have a few talented subordinates who can crack sothing like this." Maya winked her right eye.
"Alright then, I'll leave everything to you. anwhile, I'll be visiting another place."
"Where is that?"
"The Vice President."
"Hoh? You're doing sothing interesting now. To think you would et the guy you locked up… The Vice President would surely be frustrated."
Theo shook his head helplessly before disappearing without replying to Maya.
…
In the basent of the hotel, they had made a reinforced isolation room where they locked the Vice President up. He had to undergo quarantine like the others, so the trial for him was pushed back for a mont.
He sat on his table with a ssy shirt while glaring at the front. There was no resistance from him as if he had accepted his fate.
However, his body suddenly shuddered when he felt soone's presence.
There were two guards standing in front of his cell, so they should have noticed him. But when he saw the identity of that person, he realized that there was no way the guards would have noticed.
He must have used his illusion to make them think there was no one here.
In other words, he was acting like a ghost.
"Ha… Haha…" The Vice President chuckled. "I thought my plan was perfect. It turned out you were the one ssing with . I guess that's the only reason why I'm like this, right, Theodore Griffith?"
Yes, the one visiting him was Theo. He looked at the Vice President coldly, asking, "Why are you collaborating with the monsters?"
"It's funny to hear it from you. You also have collaborated with the demons."
"Indeed. But my cooperation is different from yours since I'm not harming humanity in any way."
"No, Theodore Griffith. We're doing the sa thing." The Vice President snorted. "I'm not harming humanity. Instead, I'm allowing them to grow even stronger so that we won't face our extinction!"
Theo shook his head. "You're crazy. Do you know what you have done? You're literally allowing the monsters to enter the city and beco one of us. When everything is ready, there will be no telling how many people would have died because of this."
"You don't know anything, Theodore Griffith. I'm going to say this because it's you, and not anyone else. Our vision is the sa. I, too, want humans to flourish. I simply don't care about the thod."
The Vice President stood up and walked toward Theo, glaring right in front of him. "Do you know why I accepted their collaborations? I had three purposes.
"The first would be gathering their data. What kind of creatures are they? What is their ability? I need to know everything about them so that I can prepare for their attack.
"The second reason is because I want to gather them in one spot, trying to expose all of them at once. After this event, there will be a gathering where those monsters will co together to discuss their future plan. Because they're going to act separately for a while, they will surely hold a eting to discuss their future course.
"And that's where I was planning to eliminate them. Unfortunately, you were ssing with my plan.
"Last but not least, the reason I cooperated with them is simply their strength… Humanity has no chance of winning against them. Do you know how they reproduce? They're splitting themselves…
"And their strongest monster is splitting itself to create a few King Class Monsters and those evolved monsters in your mouth.
"That's why I was researching them! How did they produce another life that imdiately got the strength of Supre Rank right after they were born? I was curious because this might be the chance for humanity to rise.
"I'm sure you rember the ti you solved the experint about goblins. It was said that you could mix a human's blood with a goblin's to create even stronger blood.
"And this ti, those monsters are the perfect test subjects. I'm planning to examine them to fuse them with human blood so that in the future, we will be able to raise a child whose strength is already a Supre Rank after they were born. This is the only way for humanity to survive because we no longer have the ability to level up.
"Don't you think this is a perfect opportunity, Theodore Griffith?"
"Well, that was easy. I thought I had to torture you to get the information from you." Theo frowned as if he was still skeptical about this old man.
"I'm saying all this because I recognize you more than anyone else. We even have the sa vision, which is to save humanity from extinction."
"If you talk about this with other people, they will surely think you're crazy."
"That's why I'm talking to you. Only you can understand ."
"Well, I understand you… I understand that you have beco crazy."
"…" The Vice President was speechless for a mont before grabbing the bars. "Theodore Griffith. I know you understand . Let's cooperate!"
