Kill them in Cyberman!

Although she felt somewhat guilty for dragging Jeanne into danger, the insecure Pochi-chan still told Jeanne about their situation.

“Psychic power…”

Hearing this word, Joan of Arc remembered the reason why the Illuminati wanted to get rid of Albert Hermes in the first place:

The psychic research led by Albert Hermes has seriously disrupted the normal development order of human society, and it must be cleared up!

(As for the other protagonist of this psychic revolution: Kaguya Shinomiya, the Illuminati did not let its own members handle it, but handed the matter over to an organization in Japan.)

This is also what Joan of Arc questioned. After seeing what the Illuminati has done in modern times, she couldn't help but wonder whether the Illuminati is really maintaining the normal development of human society, or whether they are just suppressing dissidents and maintaining their own authority.

Her master, who was also the previous supervisor, once said, "Humanity must act in accordance with the Lord's revelations."

As the supervisor of the Illuminati since ancient times, Joan of Arc understood that she not only had to monitor abnormal situations in the human world and the work of the Illuminati subordinates, but also had to supervise the Illuminati in the name of the Lord she believed in. If there were any problems with this organization that was enough to influence the human world, she must correct them and get it back on track.

Because of this thought, Joan of Arc placed herself in a desolate loneliness and could not fully trust anyone's words.

With the one-sided information from the Illuminati, she couldn't even be sure whether her judgment was correct.

Therefore, Joan of Arc must personally confirm whether the psychic revolution brought about by Albert Hermes will really endanger the development of human society.

And this matter is exactly where she can start. Hermes Technology has indeed started research on psychic power many years ago.

Countless thoughts flashed through her mind, and Joan of Arc once again determined her next goal.

"Pochi-chan, this is a dangerous matter, leave it to me... just let me act with you guys."

She originally wanted to take on all of it, but in order to take Pochi's feelings into consideration, Jeanne chose to become Pochi's companion.

"Thank you, Sister Jeanne. I'm sorry to drag you into this, but..."

Pochi really wants Jeanne to join, but every time she thinks about her lost relatives and friends, even Yamada Ryo is now injured because of her...

"Ula Ula..."

At this time, the sound of the trauma medical team's whistle came into the church. They were here to pick up Yamada Ryo.

Looking at Yamada Ryo lying on the stretcher, Pochi wanted to stay by her side and deal with their affairs later.

"No, don't do this, Pochi. Now is not the time to give up. Besides, today's attack has proved that someone else is also eyeing this matter."

"We have to hurry..."

"That lady is a reliable person. If possible, use her help."

Yamada Ryo shook his head, helping the indecisive Pochi to make a decision.

"Okay, I understand. Liang, you should take good care of your injuries."

"I will definitely find out the truth."

Pochi made a promise to Yamada Ryo. This has been the obsession of these people for many years. Now there is no reason to back down!

Pochi-chan clenched her hands and looked at the medical team going away, and she felt the power of faith that Yamada Ryo conveyed to her!

"Pochi-chan, the torture is just..."

At this time, Jeanne came to Pochi's side, and now it was time to make use of the remaining value of the gang leader.

"No, Sister Jeanne, I'll go with you too. No matter what he can tell us, I want to hear it from him in person!"

Chapter 107 Three Parties

The low-key black car passed through the bustling city center and streets and arrived at Development Park No. 4 on the edge of Newland City. This place was abandoned by Hermes Technology due to an accident six years ago, and no other contractor wanted to take over the reconstruction afterwards, so it has been in a deserted state.

This area should have been a frequented place for all kinds of vagrants and homeless people, but in fact it is a deserted area because there is an urban legend among the people living here that the ghosts of those who died in the accident still remain in the park, ready to take innocent people with them to die.

After many unbelieving people tried many times, the various accidents that happened to them further proved that there really was something indescribable in this place. Therefore, the local residents regarded it as a forbidden area, and the government departments were too lazy to care about this place whose ownership was still in the hands of Hermes Technology.

Coupled with the recent interest in psychic research, ghosts, which were originally just legends, have been confirmed to exist. Although they have been explained by scientific methods, the fear that has been deeply rooted in the human mind for many years is still difficult to overcome in a short period of time.

As mentioned above, the ruins of Development Park No. 4 have really become an area hated by both humans and dogs. Even those desperate outlaws need to think twice before coming here.

"Mr. Albert, it should be just ahead."

"Wow cool wow cool ~ so spooky!"

Tiny Anya lay on the car window, looking at the abandoned park buildings outside.

"Don't do that, Anya. You'll fall if the car door opens."

We parked the car at the entrance of the park. It was already late in the day and the slightly cold wind blew through the low grass that grew tenaciously in the cracks in the metal.

"What's wrong, is little Anya scared?"

"Woo woo, with Mother Yoel and Brother Albert by her side, Anya is not afraid!"

After Albert had his hair cut short, the little girl finally recognized his gender.

"Stop it, Anya."

After locking the car, Joel took Anya away from Albert. She didn't want her adopted daughter to always stick to Albert. This was not an act of respecting a savior.

"Mr. Albert, this place gives me a weird feeling. Is there really no problem?"

"It's okay, Joel. Hasn't Anya always wanted to go to a haunted house? This is just a naturally oversized haunted house."

Albert didn't care about this. He took two strands of his hair and wrapped one of them around Anya's wrist.

"Okay, Anya, this is a gift from big brother. You can't take it off."

"Yeah, Anya always listens to Brother Albert."

Anya put her round little face close to the hair on her wrist and sniffed it cutely, then blushed as she thanked Albert.

Then, Albert handed another strand of hair to Joel and said, "Joel, wear this too. It is a blessing."

Although Joel did not understand Albert's intention, she obeyed his orders 100%.

"Yes, Mr. Albert."

After taking the hair, facing a strand that was neither too long nor too short, Yoel thought for a moment before tying it together with the hair hanging by his ear, adding a bit of gold to his black hair.

Although she is more mature than other children, Anya is just a child after all. She naturally feels excited and scared in such a gloomy and terrifying environment, just like someone who wants to watch a horror movie at home but doesn't dare to.

The three of them entered Development Park No. 4 through the dilapidated and unattended gate. This park, which already had a large number of plants growing there and had not been maintained for six years, was now overgrown with weeds. With the dim sunset, a strange atmosphere emerged.

"Mother Yoel, Anya feels weird..."

Holding Joel's hand along the way, Anya suddenly said to her mother.

"Well, is Anya feeling unwell?"

"Ania feels like there is something there..."

As she spoke, Anya, whose mental strength exceeded that of an ordinary person, sensed a certain presence deep in the park.

"Oh, where does Anya think that thing is?"

Albert suddenly interrupted, he wanted to see the potential of this little guy.

“Over there, Brother Albert…”

The little hand pointed to a ruin deep in the park.

The three of them looked in the direction Anya was pointing.

Joel didn't feel anything, but she was still a little nervous about the atmosphere.

Albert only smiled and said nothing.

"Mr. Albert, why don't we..."

"It's okay. It might be something interesting, but it's definitely not dangerous. I can guarantee that."

With Albert's assurance again, the two of them had no choice but to go deeper into the park.

Various abandoned station stalls and collapsed performance stages all show how lively and glorious this place once was.

But everything at the moment has become a thing of the past and has become a meaningless background, except for the door of the passage that opens from the ground platform in front of the three people and goes all the way down.

"Interesting, someone actually found this place before me."

This was something that even Albert had not expected. Someone would actually investigate such an old matter at this time, and it happened to happen to him. This couldn't be a surprise...

"Brother Albert..."

"Mr. Albert, we——"

Joel and Anya looked at Albert together, waiting for this unreliable backbone to make up his mind.

"Well, things are getting interesting..."

"Let's go in and have some fun too."

…………

At this time, outside the park, several light armed vehicles stopped at the gate. A group of fully armed uninvited guests got out of the vehicles and then lined up in an orderly manner.

It was as solemn as welcoming a leader.

Finally, a luxury car drove in slowly, and a somewhat fat middle-aged man hurriedly walked up to these people.

"So are you all ready? I will lead the operation personally this time, and we will not allow failure. We must find the research data for me even if we have to dig deep into the ground. As long as we accomplish this feat, Mr. President will definitely reward everyone greatly. Do you understand?"

"Yes sir!!"

"Okay, action, action, go! go! go!"

Under the command of the fat man, the armed men quickly poured into Development Park No. 4. Both their movements and formations showed that they were professionally trained soldiers or agents.

If Anya saw the standards of their clothing, she might recall some bad memories, the night of the massacre that gave the child nightmares for several days.

Chapter 108: Remnants of the Past

After Pochi and Jeanne took the verification key from the cemetery, they returned to the apartment at Pochi's suggestion.

"Little Pochi, why do you want to bring your guitar?"

Jeanne couldn't help but feel strange when she saw Pochi coming down from upstairs carrying a guitar bag.

"Ah, Sister Jeanne, this isn't actually a guitar..."

As he spoke, Pochi opened the guitar bag in his hand and took out an XM10 assault rifle from it. "Because there is no bag specifically for guns, I used the guitar bag instead..."

Pochi waved the assault rifle in front of Jeanne, then scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.

"..."

Joan of Arc didn't know what to say. This was the first time she had seen someone carrying a rifle in a guitar bag. For some reason, a strange picture emerged in her mind: the guitar singer who was performing on stage did not take out a guitar but an assault rifle from his backpack, and then started shooting...

"Little Pochi, you should be able to use a gun."

"Yeah, Ryo has already helped me train."

Pochi held the gun and performed the shooting movements that Yamada Ryo taught her, and it seemed that she really meant it.

"Now that we have come to our senses, let's set off."

Since their previous car was damaged in the attack, the two had no choice but to call a taxi through an online car rental app.

When the two arrived at Development Park No. 4, it was almost dusk. According to the information provided by the gang leader, a big shot from Hermes Technology hired him to steal something from the old man named Eddie, and the fact that Pochi and his friends had intercepted the things in advance had also been reported.

As for the subsequent attacks on Pochi and Yamada Ryo, they were all done by this man on his own initiative.

So time is very tight for the two of them now, because the unknown big shot must have discovered that the gang leader is missing, and the things are in someone else's hands.

If the other party also wanted to find the underground laboratory in Development Park No. 4, they might have already ambushed them in the park.

Facing the desolate and eerie atmosphere around him, Pochi held the XM10 tightly in his hand, keeping a close eye on the situation around him. If Jeanne had not been by her side, the gun would have probably gone off many times.

Joan of Arc just moved forward in silence, holding a map that came with the verification key, looking for the entrance to the underground laboratory.

According to the map, the official entrance to the underground laboratory is not inside Development Park No. 4, and what they are going to use now is an emergency passage.

In the tense atmosphere, Pochi subconsciously let his mind wander to ease his mood.

"How about writing a song based on your recent experiences?"

As a musician whose main job is almost becoming a detective and a gunman, Bochi thought of this instinctively.

"If I can successfully find the truth, I can also write a good song about the feelings during this experience..."

"It seems like I want to play this song with them."
