Kill them in Cyberman!

Even so, as a mother, Joel still hopes that Anya will remain unchanged as she is now and live with her in peace.

"Really? Take me to see it."

Albert is obviously very interested in this, what kind of ability could it be?

Since psionic power is a non-material energy, if you want to influence reality you need to go through some specific forms, such as the so-called wizard chanting spells. This is through systematic mental training and powerful self-suggestion that psionic power can affect reality in the form of certain spells.

Anya's situation belongs to another category. That is, without systematic mental training and self-suggestion, her psychic power can affect reality in a natural and specific way, which becomes the so-called super power.

When I opened the door, Anya was sitting obediently on the bed.

"Little Anya, it seems that you have woken up. Is there anything different?"

Albert walked quickly forward, sat next to Anya, and stroked her soft pink hair with a smile.

"Ah."

Anya nodded slightly, her big green eyes blinking.

"Ania, if you feel uncomfortable, please tell me, okay?"

Yoel came up to the two of them with concern and said to Anya.

"Yeah, I'm fine, mom, don't worry."

Albert, who was caressing Anya, smiled slightly.

"Little Anya, you just used your ability on Yoel, right?"

After hearing this, both Joel and Anya looked surprised.

"Can you please tell me the result? What's different from usual?"

Hearing Albert's question, Anya said in confusion: "I heard Yoel's mother talking, but her mouth didn't move. How strange!"

"interesting."

Albert looked at Joel and said, "Joel, please don't speak yet."

Then he said to Anya, "Aniya, what is Joel talking about now?"

"Mother Yoel said that Aniya and Lord Albert are both very strange, and Yoel's brain is not enough..."

It seemed like she was simply repeating what Yoel was thinking, and it was a little strange to hear such words coming from Anya's mouth.

"It seems that Anya has awakened the ability to read minds. That's amazing!"

Albert praised Anya like an older brother (sister?) next door.

"Eh!"

Yoel was shocked. Anya could read minds, so wouldn't that mean his own thoughts...

"If...if Anya knew that I had improper thoughts about Albert-sama, my life would be over!"

A horrifying thought involuntarily flashed through Joel's mind. Her face instantly turned red and she looked at the two people who were interacting with sweat all over her forehead.

"Mom, why are you blushing? Is Anya's room hot?"

"Sister Albert, is Mom sick?"

Anya seemed to have regained her lively self, and she once again inadvertently activated her ability.

As a slightly precocious child, Anya's eyes widened when she heard what Yoel was thinking and understood the meaning.

"What's wrong, Anya, and you, Joel, you don't look right."

Looking at Albert who was still "kept in the dark", Anya, as a good daughter of her mother, naturally noticed that Joel was desperately winking at her.

"Ahhh...Sister Albert, then...then can you let me and mom be alone for a while?"

Seeing how nervous the two were, Albert roughly guessed what was going on and stopped asking questions.

"Well, of course. I'll give you and your daughter some privacy. I just happen to have something else to do."

So saying, Albert got out of bed and left the room.

As soon as Albert left, Joel and Anya breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. Joel instantly rushed to Anya and kissed and hugged her.

"Wow, my dear daughter, my Anya, thank you for helping your mother keep the secret."

When Albert left the room, he saw S, who had changed into a butler's suit and had been waiting for a long time.

"Change your clothes for me too, S."

Albert held up his little hands in front of S, stood on tiptoe, and motioned for the other party to take him away.

"Understood, Master."

"By the way, Master, the astronomical tide is coming soon, please keep warm."

S gently picked up Albert and felt the long-lost warmth, and his face couldn't help but turn red.

"Master's body is so soft and smells so good. It feels like I could hold it in my arms forever."

Hearing the voice coming from S's heart, Albert smiled with satisfaction.

"Mind reading? Is this ability really that simple?"

That’s right, just now Albert copied Anya’s ability by absorbing the overflowing psychic energy, and now he can also use the ability of mind reading.

Chapter 33 Lucy's Feelings

As one of the important economic centers of the United States, the central area of Newland City is so prosperous that one can imagine how prosperous it is. It is a steel jungle formed by countless luxurious high-rise buildings, as well as the horizontal and vertical skytrains and tunnels. They are like the blood vessels of the city, truly connecting this prosperous commercial capital into a whole.

If someone wants to ask which is the most luxurious building in Newland, then the Hermes Building is the most consistent answer given by Newland people.

This skyscraper, which is the tallest and largest in the city, is the best proof that Hermes Technologies is the actual controller of this city.

The building was completed in 2045, 35 years ago, and has undergone several repairs and renovations during this period.

Well, why is repair necessary, you ask?

As the actual controller of Newland, Hermes Technologies faces many enemies. In addition, this building, which is so conspicuous, has naturally become a thorn in the eyes and flesh of various forces.

After all, the saying "Free America, shooting every day" is no joke. If Hermes Technologies had not upgraded the building's security system and armed defenses several times, some people would probably want to come here every day to cause trouble for Hermes Technologies.

Leaning against the smooth marble wall, Lucy was casually wearing a loose dark green work coat, and underneath was still a white combat tights made of nanomaterials.

While waiting for Albert, she was also observing everyone who entered and left the building. Although Lucy could have checked everyone's identity clearly through the Internet, she did not do that.

Because Lucy wanted this feeling of seeing with her eyes, she blocked other functions of the prosthetic eye and only retained the most basic vision so that she could see like a normal human being.

"How ironic..."

Lucy found that no matter how hard she looked, she could not see the people in front of her as the same as herself. This feeling had been lingering in her mind since the moment she woke up.

“I am different from them.”

Although they had the same appearance (human), Lucy had a very clear feeling - they were different.

This is a feeling I have never experienced before, a feeling of loneliness as if I have been cut off from this world called human beings.

As she thought about this, Lucy felt bitter.

At this moment, Albert's figure suddenly flashed by.

"he?"

Lucy let her consciousness freeze at this moment.

When facing Albert, Lucy always had an inexplicable feeling, a feeling completely different from facing a normal human being.

Is it something to do with emotions?

Maybe, but is it really?

During the rare quiet time, Lucy carefully recalled the feeling Albert gave her. As a cyborg, she only needed a thought to cut off her emotions and keep herself in a completely calm state.

"wrong."

Even so, Albert's strange feeling did not disappear, but became more distinct after being separated from his emotions.

Albert is like a torch burning in the darkness, and he is an existence completely different from the world they live in.

The feeling that Albert gave Lucie was not the kind of lonely feeling of being stripped away, but it was as if he had never entered this world. It was like a painting within a painting, a box within a box, placed in this world, but itself a completely independent existence.

"Oh, I didn't expect you to come so early."

A familiar voice interrupted Lucy's thoughts.

Lucy looked at Albert in surprise. He was wearing casual clothes. When she saw the person she was thinking about, she had a strange feeling that he shouldn't be there.

She is shy...

"I thought you were going to wait until this building was razed to the ground."

Lucy quickly put on a cold face to hide her inner shyness.

"Damn it, what's going on, why do I care so much about this bastard!!!"

Lucy strongly condemned her own thoughts in her heart.

Albert, who could read minds, smiled but said nothing.

"So have you found any clues?"

Under the respectful gazes of the security guards and front desk clerks, Albert and Lucy walked into Newland's most luxurious office building.

"No, I just took a break while waiting for you slow guy."

Lucy looked disgusted.

"You need a rest too?"

"If you continue to talk about this topic, I will sue you for violating labor laws!"

"You should know my abilities!"

Seeing that the other party was like a cat with its fur standing on end, Albert stopped teasing him after making such a weak threat.

"Then where do we start? There are seven underground floors in the building. Who knows where the bomb with a 74.63% probability of existence is?"

In his heart, Albert still hoped that this thermonuclear bomb really existed, because he could get what he wanted from it anyway.

"I thought you would call a professional team to handle it. Now there are only two of us, and one of us is a powerless burden?"

Lucy directly questioned Albert. She really didn't understand whether this guy was conceited or confident. He actually came here to die in such a matter of life and death. If Colen knew about it, he would probably detonate the bomb right away, and they would both die together.

"Then what do you think we should do? Invite a professional team with great fanfare and make Hermes Technology, which is already at the center of controversy, the focus of everyone's attention again?"

"Let Colen, who is far away on an isolated island, know that we are looking for the bomb he planted thirty-five years ago?"

Seeing that Albert was still insisting on his own way without any self-reflection, Lucy had no choice but to follow him into the elevator.

"Well, you're the boss and you have the final say. Anyway, if the bomb explodes, you, a person of inestimable value, will be buried with me."

Lucy said speechlessly. Perhaps she herself did not realize that she spoke a lot more than usual when she was with Albert.

"According to previous data, we calculated that the problematic foundation at that time was closest to the current sixth underground floor. In other words, if we want to detect whether there is a bomb, the sixth underground floor is the easiest area..."

"Wait a moment," said Albert, suddenly interrupting Lucie.

"You'd better give me a good reason!"

"What are the prerequisites for the explosion result you calculated earlier?"

"I simulated the consequences of detonating the building at its location."

"The whole of Newland will be buried with me."

"That's a harsh remark from Colen."

Albert said thoughtfully.

"Of course, I know. I've said it before. If the entire Newland East District 67% is blown up..."

"not enough."

"what?"

"I said it's not enough. Only half of the East End area is not enough to be called the whole of Newland."

“But what about the nuclear contamination afterwards?”
