Reincarnated As The Diabolic System-Chapter 141 140. Totally Drunk!

Shane looked around at the bloody mess created because of the attack. His eyes opened wide in surprise. Such a powerful spell! Now, he didn't even have to purchase anything because he basically knew all the kinds of weapons and spells that could be used through his thousand-year-old memory!

Didn't it mean he was all-powerful and couldn't be defeated anymore

For a moment, his heart sped up as he glanced at his hands. Power surged as he thought about it for a mere second. Dark energy flooded through his veins and appeared in the palms of his hands. It brightened up in his eyes as he stared at it for a moment. ｆ𝓇𝘦ℯ𝙬𝑒𝐛n𝐨νe𝙡.c𝑜𝗺

Just as he was busy staring at his power, he heard Hope's voice: "Tsk. Calm down. You're not the only powerful person who knows cultivation, you know?"

Shane came back to himself as the power also disappeared inside his body. He blinked and took a deep breath. Just as he was about to ask something, the other girl spoke in his brain.

"Congratulations. You have just passed your first mission in this world."

Shane raised his brows. "You found the old man's last wish so soon?"

"That man is pretty predictable." Hope's voice was laced with disdain. "He wants you to destroy the entire righteous cultivation faction. He specifically focused on the word 'hypocrite.' That is, the righteous faction is made up of people who have two faces. You know what I mean, don't you?"

"Now that I think about it, he really hasn't destroyed anything just yet. Also, why did he call the righteous faction hypocrites? I don't have any complaints. I have indeed seen pretentious people who like to call themselves righteous, but in reality, they were scheming even in my university days."

"Are you talking about those good-looking girls with blackened hearts?"

"Exactly."

Hope went unnaturally silent for half a minute before she opened her mouth. "Let's think about how to destroy the righteous faction first. The old man must have several enemies. Let's visit them one by one."

Shane also agreed with this, but before this, he had to do something else. "From what I understand, there must be a hidden mole in the demonic faction who allowed the spy bodyguards to enter and even get this close to the demon king."

He didn't think the main officials and the old man's father were responsible for this mess. Someone in the bodyguard company must have allowed the spies to cross the border. They were also demon cultivators, but they worked for the righteous faction. So Shane could tell they weren't the only ones who had been sent to the imperial palace by this old man.

"Okay, I know where we have to go."

"To the bodyguard company?"

Shane smiled and said nothing about that. "Show me the way."

He arrived at the location with his fast-speed technique after a few minutes. These powers were really awesome. He didn't even have to travel very far on foot to get anywhere. He could just take his sword and travel at the fastest speed possible.

He should try this after he gets back.

When he reached it, he silently took out the invisibility cloak that also helped him pass through the walls and wore it on his body. He also covered up his cultivation and hid in the shadows, walking steadily toward the main office.

No one could notice him at this time. It was almost like he had become invisible in front of everyone else.

"Eh? You want me to get drunk in the middle of my job?" asked one of the soldiers stationed at the main gate.

The man wearing black robes had half his face covered with a cloth. So only his eyes were visible at this moment. The man standing on the other side of the door also had a similar getup. Even their eye colors were the same: a deep red. If it weren't for their foreheads looking a bit different, Shane wouldn't be able to tell them apart at all.

Shane noticed the other man pick up the bottle of wine and drink it all at once while pulling up the cloth. He wiped his mouth and leaned back against the wall.

"This is what I call a dream job. You won't get to drink in the middle of a job elsewhere. You try it too."

The other person hesitated before he sighed, grabbed the bottle, and drank it all himself. "That's so good. No one can see us in this endless dark corridor."

Shane looked around. The place was indeed dark, with only one corridor in front of the guards. There wasn't even a door or another room to enter, which made Shane wonder whether this place was filled with hallucination arrays. Nevertheless, he stepped forward and started walking ahead. Since he knew that he wouldn't find anything anytime soon just by walking through the dark corridor, he directly entered the wall adjacent to him and looked around. It was another corridor.

He raised his brows.

Even with this invisibility cloak, it was easy to get lost in this messy place.

So he started walking directly from wall to wall, only to find endless corridors at the end. He frowned when he reached the end of the corridor. He could only see the outside scene of the dark sky and cold buildings of the demonic realm. He turned back and frowned.

No, it shouldn't be this way.

He simply sat on the ground and closed his eyes. He would use the dark cultivation technique to look through the entire place. He spread his awareness everywhere in the entire building. From the outside, he had seen that this bodyguard's office looked rather like a posh palace filled with quiet and darkness.

After he spread his senses throughout the place, he sensed that this place was indeed filled with an array that was meant to confuse anyone, even an invisible person like him. He silently praised the creator of this place and started finding a loophole in the array, and he found it.

He smiled and opened his eyes. He had been wrong all along. He shouldn't have gone out of his way and entered through the walls. He didn't even manage to enter the right place yet!

He sighed and walked all the way back to the place with two bodyguards. They were still silently standing in their place. If you looked carefully, it could be seen that their eyes were clouded with confusion.

They were totally drunk.

Shane ignored them and walked outside the door. He glanced around only to find a small, narrow opening on the side that he had ignored before. When he entered the place, he felt like he had just passed through a thick wall and paused.

He raised his brows. It seems there was a formation here that blocked others from entering. If it weren't for the invisibility cloak he wore, he wouldn't have even entered this place so smoothly.

After putting his feet inside, he took a look around.

It was a hallway filled with several black-robed people who wandered here and there. A giant rectangle-shaped wooden table was placed at the center. Several of these black-robed people sat on either side, eating their food. Some of them just strolled around the stalls and tasted foodstuffs.

Shane walked forward and passed through every single one of them without turning back.

"I think you'll find the stairs," Hope said after a while.

"Thank you for the information. I would have appreciated it if you had spoken sooner."

"I tried, but for some reason, the array even seemed to have blocked my voice."

"Huh?" Shane frowned as his steps came to a halt as he turned to enter a door at the far end of the hall. "You were blocked?"

"Yeah, no worries. I think the array was powerful enough."

Shane frowned deeper. He didn't think so. The only person who could do this was probably another person with a system. So it seemed he wasn't the only one coming here.

Interesting. So two systems would clash like this. He hadn't expected this to happen.

It seemed even Hope realized it; as she said, "I have a feeling that the other system isn't that powerful. Otherwise, they would have realized that others might enter using an invisibility cloak and would have made probable arrangements."

Shane also thought for a while and nodded. Still, he didn't let his guard down. He silently took out the kinslayer and walked upstairs all the way to the topmost floor. The other floors weren't that important. They appeared to be filled with various types of residences and training rooms. He wasn't interested in strolling around this place.

He quickly went upstairs and directly entered the room that looked like the main office.

As soon as he entered the place and saw the other person sitting on the chair, he frowned.

Wait, wasn't this person one of the officials who had bowed back in the palace hall when he just entered this world?
