Kill them in Cyberman!

"Really? It seems we are in the right place."

The man chuckled and lowered his hat again to hide his movements.

"boom!"

Sparks flew in the dark night, startling Anya, who was bored upstairs. She quickly climbed to the window to see what was happening below.

Because in the slums, there is an unwritten rule that no matter how urgent or lawless it is, you should not attack the "public toilets".

The so-called public places are apartments like Xia Li's, where you can move in unconditionally as long as you pay and they provide you with shelter.

Once someone violates the rules, they will be attacked by the locals. As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake. No matter how powerful you are in the city, when you arrive in the slums, it is best to abide by the rules here.

Of course, to the company, these rules are bullshit. Does your boss need to report to you rubbish when performing his duties?

joke!

The man in black fell to the ground, a big hole was punched in his chest, and a mixture of white prosthetic fluid and red blood flowed on the ground.

"Huh, huh, I'm old, still old~"

At this time, the black cloth on Xia Li's legs was removed, and a high-powered shotgun was emitting flames and smoke.

"Little Anya, I'm sorry to bother you with your rest. Grandma will solve the problem soon. Please don't come out yet, good child."

As if she knew Anya was watching from above, Xia Li stood up tremblingly and gave an order above her head, her voice sounding like a kind old grandmother.

At this moment, the gun is her crutch, because in this seemingly civilized world where the strong prey on the weak, power means the right to speak.

Seeing their companion lying on the ground and still twitching, the other intelligence team members who had been hiding in the dark did not feel any sadness.

"No. 4 has fallen. It has been confirmed that the other party is armed. Please give orders."

“Capture that little girl to me at all costs. If you can’t do it, you will die there.”

Colen's cold-blooded voice rang out.

The troop members who were hiding all emerged from the darkness and surrounded Xia Li and the apartment.

"Follow my instructions, shoot together, quickly eliminate the enemy, and complete the mission!"

Faced with an enemy force that outnumbered her by more than ten times, Xia Li did not feel the slightest bit of despair, because she knew, or everyone in Slum No. 7 knew, what the gunshots just now meant.

"shooting!"

The captain of the intelligence unit waved his hand and the order was immediately issued.

"boom!"

But before he could finish, another gunshot interrupted him, followed by continuous gunfire around them.

"Report! The left wing was attacked!"

"Report! Enemy contact on the right wing!"

"Report! A large number of hostile signals have appeared. It's an ambush!"

Flashes of gunfire, screams and shouts, as well as the sounds of flesh breaking and blood splattering, created an extraordinary scene on this ordinary night.

Chapter 21 Martha? Anya!

On the second floor of the apartment, Anya was squatting in the corner, shivering and holding her head. Although she was mentally mature and energetic, she was only an elementary school student after all. In addition, she had been living a comfortable life after being adopted by Joel and had never seen such a cruel scene.

Just as Colen had calculated, it was because he was certain that Joel would not be able to come back in time during this period that he dared to blatantly send out an elite team to attack Slum No. 7.

After a fierce firefight, the sounds of killing finally died down and tranquility once again enveloped the night.

"Is this the last one?"

"Yes, Captain, all hostile signals have been cleared!"

"Very good, move quickly, go and count the wounded, and those who can move will return to the headquarters on their own. As for those who can't... well, it's no use now."

"understand!"

Although they had the advantage of time and location, there was still a huge gap between the residents of the slums and the regular army in terms of equipment and combat capabilities.

Therefore, there is no doubt that the winner is the elite combat force of the Hermes Intelligence Department. As a combat force directly under Colen, although their frontal combat capabilities may not be as good as the elite security forces led by Jackman, they are already quite terrifying for those who can only survive in the slums.

Even Mrs. Xia Li did not escape. As if in response to her unexpected killing of No. 4, her body was shot in the middle by the combat troops, turning into stumps soaked in scarlet blood.

"Sir, we have cleared out the resistance. Shall we continue with the plan?"

"Of course, continue to execute it. Also, do it cleanly and don't leave any traces other than the target."

Colen responded calmly, feeling very proud in his heart, "As expected, I am the only one who can be trusted. What the hell is Shinomiya Kaguya? Sooner or later, I will..."

"understand!"

Soon, the combat troops massacred everyone in this two-story building, regardless of whether they were related or not, and no resident was spared. When they captured the terrified Anya, the place had already turned into a raging sea of ​​fire.

Except for the burning flames, there was no light in Slum No. 7 at the moment, and a deathly silence prevailed here.

Fear, grief, anger and other emotions are like phantoms swaying in the flames, and will eventually turn into ashes.

At this time, Joel, who was completely unaware of all this, ended a day of odd jobs in a club in Newland City.

You want to ask why Joel is doing odd jobs?

"Ah~, Master Albert, I am just a woman who is good for nothing except killing people. If I accept your help like this, I don't think Anya will agree."

As a "gift" given to Albert by Kaguya Shinomiya, although Joel, who still has free will, cannot resist such an order, she does not want to admit that she is an object placed by everyone, especially after adopting a daughter. She absolutely does not want to instill in Anya the idea that her mother is being taken care of by others.

"Well, it seems that she is completely into the role."

With this attitude, Albert did not force Joel to stay by his side. After all, what he needed now was a killer who was available at any time.

Moreover, Albert, as the largest capitalist in Newland City, knew very well that after a while, Joel would come to him and beg him to stay with him.

To sum up, in order to establish the image of an independent and strong single mother in front of Anya, Joel declined Albert's invitation to be a maid and chose to find a way to make a living in Newland City.

Although he had a series of "unquestionable" identification documents provided by Albert, Joel, who was unfamiliar with Newland City, was unable to find a decent and stable job.

In addition, Kaguya Shinomiya cut off the funds for the operation, so without asking Albert for help, Joel could hardly make a living in this high-consumption cyber city in just over a week.

So, our top killer, the nightmare of countless people - Miss Joel Blair gloriously became a temporary worker in a club, barely making a living on daily wages.

Just as Joel was about to leave the city and return to the slums, a communication was connected to her terminal.

"Good evening, Miss Princess Thorn."

The sharply recognizable old voice instantly alerted Yoel.

It's Colum!

But at this time, Joel was a little confused. She had used encrypted communication with Colen before, so why could the other party find her private number now?

"The master has issued an order. Our partnership has been terminated, Mr. Coren."

With a cold face, Joel walked into a dark alley and found a hidden corner.

"Haha, of course I know that, Miss Joel Blair..."

Joel was shocked. It seemed that Colen had investigated her. The next moment, a terrible idea came into her mind.

His heart rate rose rapidly and Joel began to feel uneasy. The person standing here was not a top killer, but only a mother who was worried about her daughter.

"It seems that Miss Yueer has guessed my intention. I don't like beating around the bush..."

As Colen finished speaking, a video automatically played on Yoel's terminal.

“Ania!!”

In the picture, in a dark factory, strong light shines on a small figure.

The girl with shoulder-length pink hair and a cute little wizard hat is none other than Anya, Joel's adopted daughter.

At this moment, she was tied to a chair, her eyes and mouth covered, and she was trembling with fear.

"You...you dare to touch a hair on her..."

Seeing the scene in the video, Yoel suddenly burst out with astonishing murderous intent, and his burgundy eyes were shrouded in darkness.

"Haha, I know your abilities, Miss Youer. Although your master has abandoned us, how about you make a deal with me in person?"

"What...do you want?"

Joel squeezed out a few words from between her teeth, and with every word, the murderous aura around her increased.

"It's very simple. Kill Albert Hermes and I will return your daughter to you intact. Of course, the time limit is tonight. If it's too late, this lovely girl will..."

"as you wish!"

"Crack!"

Yoel crushed the terminal in his hand and walked out of the alley with a dark face.

Just then, several people who looked like thugs suddenly came into the alley and blocked Joel's way.

"My beautiful lady, could you please have a drink?"

The punk asked in a flirtatious tone.

"Step aside!"

Joel didn't want to bother with these dregs of society now.

"Hey, Xiaoni, don't be so angry. Our boss just wants to buy you a drink. How can you get so much..."

Before he could finish his words, the dirty blood of several people sprayed into the air.

At this time, Joel had disappeared, leaving only bloody and flesh fragments on the ground.

Chapter 22 No, you came at the right time

There is less than a day left before the board meeting, and now the junior directors of Hermes Technology are already considering the issue of taking sides.

After all, although this period seems calm, there are actually undercurrents within the company, and Colen and Jackman have been at loggerheads.

Coupled with the incident at Institute Zero, I'm afraid Dr. Helen, who has always been aloof from worldly affairs, will also be involved.

Although most people are not aware of this problem, there are still smart people who have seen some clues, that is about the current puppet president Albert.

Generally speaking, these low-level executives who basically will never have access to the core power, as long as the workers stand on the right side in the struggle, they can rise to the top, get promoted and get a raise after the losers are eliminated, and continue to enjoy their life as corporate dogs in peace.

In the mansion at night

Albert was playing chess with S. in the courtyard.

Of course, if Albert hadn't asked her to wear a bikini, I think the scene would have been more serious.

However, as their relationship progressed, S was no longer so averse to this kind of interaction, which he thought was a bit excessive (and maybe even pleasant).

"S, you are such a wimp. You lost again."

Albert had undoubtedly won again. He picked up the teacup beside him and drank it all in one gulp.

"...Master, it's so late, and there is an important meeting tomorrow..."

S looked drunk. He picked up the wine glass beside him with trembling hands and drank it reluctantly.

This was the rule set by Albert at the beginning of the chess game. The winner drinks a sip of tea, the loser drinks a glass of wine, and S is not allowed to use the alcohol filtering and decomposition ability of the prosthesis.

S, who knew that Albert was a non-human creature, naturally understood that this was a completely bullying rogue rule, but for some reason, just like playing chess in a bikini, she finally agreed, and even felt a little inexplicably happy in her heart.

Seeing the housekeeper, she was already drunk and cute

I know S can’t drink anymore. If he drinks again, I’m afraid we’ll need to ask someone to carry him away.

Albert also reached out and held S's pretty face.

"Master... I like you so much..."

S hazy eyes

"Come on, let me reward you."

Albert was also a little overwhelmed at this moment. Who made his housekeeper so cute?

What's more, she is his personal secretary. Hasn't he heard that secretaries do things when there is work to do, and do nothing when there is nothing to do... cough cough cough...

"Snapped!"

As the two men approached, the chess piece trapped in the middle fell to the ground unable to bear the humiliation.
