I am the former civilized hero.

Ryan dealt with several groups of guards and captured two alive, but when questioned, they knew nothing and only said that their boss asked them to guard the place.

"It seems that I have to go back and have a good talk with the trafficker. I hope he won't be scared away."

Ryan did alert the enemy, but the force he used was within the range of human resistance, and the enemy was not so scared as to run away overnight when encountering an elite special forces soldier.

He looked around with interest and saw some mysterious sculptures, or a big tree covered with tumors and bearing fruits that looked like human heads, or a giant snake with a cow's body and human legs. The dark and silent atmosphere gave him goose bumps.

"Cricket gas, meaningless."

Ryan was certainly not frightened, he was a scientist, although Honkai energy was 'all-powerful', it was scientific in general, there was nothing that was impossible to look at or understand.

It's obvious that this is a fiction based on the Honkai beast, and it has no artistic value at all. However, it's very strange to see it displayed in a research institute.

When did the Fire Moth change to being a god? Well, I can't be so sure. On Earth, it is studied and utilized with science, but maybe in some other world it has become swords and magic.

This is a kind of energy that can be used in more than one way, and it can also be used for spiritual practice.

As he was thinking, Ryan arrived at the bottom of the building. There was a hall here, surrounded by houses. He walked around and found that all kinds of facilities were complete.

There were iron cells, living quarters, and broken pieces of glass jars, but all the equipment had been emptied out, leaving only the guards’ leftover garbage.

"You don't really think of this place as a safe haven, right? Although it's easy to defend and hard to attack, it's very suitable as a secret base."

Ryan was a little disappointed, but soon he smiled again. This place could deceive the naked eye, but it could not deceive the air that was everywhere. He looked inside and felt the air flow passing through the surface and bouncing back inside.

Secret passage.

Ryan walked slowly, stretched out his hand and pressed the wall, his palm immediately penetrated, and the shadow washed over his forearm.

"Independent power supply, mirage system, it seems to be of very high level."

He took a deep breath, took a step forward, and like a magic trick, he penetrated the wall and saw a steel corridor, at the end of which was a tightly closed alloy door.

The A-class explosion-proof door is comparable to the secret laboratory of the Honkai Beast in Mobius Pass. It is strong enough to withstand the shooting of depleted uranium armor-piercing bullets and is connected to a self-destruct device. The key is the pattern on the door.

When a moth spreads its wings, isn't it a moth chasing the fire?

Ryan felt his heartbeat quicken slightly. Apparently there were some secrets here that he didn't know about. Judging from the wasted time, perhaps even Mei didn't know about it.

This door cannot be opened by force. If explosives are installed, the entire laboratory will most likely fly into the sky. But humans cannot do it, but the Herrscher can.

Ryan first pressed his right hand on the door. The flash of electric current was fleeting and directly burned the control chip. Then he poured out the kettle he carried with him. The hot water floated in the air and then flowed rapidly.

As long as the liquid flows fast enough to cut the steel, there won't even be any noise. Ryan snapped his fingers, and the water jet touched the alloy, bursting into dazzling sparks, and then slowly cut out an entrance.

A disgusting smell suddenly rolled out from the gap. Even Ryan covered his mouth and nose. It felt extremely smelly. He calmed himself down for a moment, then bent down and crawled in.

There was a huge hole inside, it was pitch black and nothing could be seen. In the darkness, Ryan had a blank expression on his face, but his gray eyes were filled with a hint of anger.

He took out a glow stick, unscrewed it and threw it forward. His pupils quickly contracted at the faint light.

In front of him was a large pit like a reservoir, filled with layers of corpses. Because it was sealed, the corpses had not yet decayed too much, but they had lost moisture and took on the characteristics of dead wood.

Men, women, old and young, were piled up densely, and the faces howling in pain looked like mental pollution. Even though Ryan had seen countless tragic scenes, he instinctively closed his eyes.

"This is the secret research institute of the Fire Moth, and it has nothing to do with Mobius. She is not so shameless."

Ryan had almost made his decision, and now there were only three questions left.

Who does the institute belong to? What results did it produce? Why was it abandoned?

At this moment, Ryan almost forgot why he came to Northern Europe. His curiosity even overwhelmed his desire for power. He turned on the flashlight, walked onto the iron bridge above the pit, and looked down.

A rough estimate is that there are tens of thousands of people, and the last one died a few months ago. Judging from the sculptures, this place doesn't look like a normal research institute.

Ryan knew that the Fire Moth had never stopped its research on the combination of humans and Honkai, and the current result was the Mobius Fusion Warrior Project, but this did not mean that there were no other ways to go.

Some will not be made public, such as the obscure faction within the Fire Moth. Then he remembered what Mei had said to him when he took the Herrscher core.

Mei only mentioned it briefly at the time, but he kept it in his heart. When he encountered it now, it immediately came to his mind.

There are secret institutes in inaccessible places...

"As expected, the possibility of the Faith Party is higher. With so many deaths, there must be some results. If there are any results, Mei should grasp them, unless she deliberately conceals them, or the result will not be accepted by humans."

Ryan walked calmly over the corpses, scanning the painful faces. Suddenly, he stopped and raised the flashlight.

someone.

The flashlight was just a cover. Ryan was integrating trace amounts of Honkai energy into the flowing air and constantly detecting the surroundings, so he reacted immediately after discovering the abnormality.

In just a few tenths of a second, Ryan saw the man, who was wearing a linen robe, like an ancient monk, but a moment later, the man disappeared without a trace.

Ryan slowly lowered his raised toes, because the opponent disappeared, as if melting into the ground. At that moment, Ryan knew that he could not catch him even with the power of thunder.

There was silence all around, Ryan put down his foot, but his tense muscles did not relax for a moment, and his scalp even felt numb.

Although it was just a fleeting glimpse, Ryan had a familiar feeling at that moment.

The feeling of a lawyer.

......

"The Fire Moth has indeed sent someone to investigate."

There was no one in sight in the dark room, but a voice suddenly rang out amid the flickering electronic lights.

"Is it a fusion fighter?"

"No, he must be a secret agent of the Intelligence Department. My people can't find the relevant information. It must be a very confidential mission, reporting directly to Karius."

There was silence in the room for a while, and then an old voice slowly sounded.

"Find a way to drive him away. If you can't, just kill him. We can't lose Northern Europe. It's a precious testing ground. It's the key to whether we can end our childhood. But be careful. I don't want to be targeted by the parliament."

"Then we will try our best to ensure the success rate. Also, sir, how is the progress of the experiment?"

"He is still uncontrollable, but the authority he displays is exactly what we desire. This will take time." The old voice paused, with infinite longing, "I firmly believe that this is the only way for mankind. Destiny is our ally, just like sweeping our mortal enemy, the Purebloods, into the garbage dump."

"Those fools don't know anything."

"There is no way out of this confrontation. They have twisted the Fusion Warrior Program."

"The only way is to become one with God."

"Through the birth of the Fourth Herrscher, we have mastered the laws. There is a supreme will watching over the world."

"That's right. This is something that the mortals in the research committee cannot understand."

"Through this experience, we can even call upon new Herrschers!"

Sparse voices were heard, sounding crazy and persistent, and soon fell silent.

The dark room remained silent for a long time until the dial tone sounded, followed by a few busy tones, and then an elegant and proper voice came.

"What do you want?"

"A file. I want to know what missions all fusion fighters are on and where they are located, no matter what their classification level is."

There was a long silence on the other end of the phone, followed by a sigh of relief.

"As you wish."

Chapter 164 Bang!

In the early morning, Ryan went straight back to the room. The girl was gone, and no supplies were lost, which made him feel a little surprised.

Human nature is indeed stubborn. In order to survive, one can go against morality, but one cannot lose the most core things. Otherwise, one will just be a monster in human skin, just like he has always warned Mebius.

Christina is a person who saves herself. As long as she saves herself, she is worth being saved.

"Now that this matter is settled, send her to Gothenburg. It doesn't matter if she becomes the savior of one or two people."

Ryan thought to himself, then put the gun on the table and waited until noon, but no one came. This was the second surprise.

He actually didn't come to find me. He's smarter than I thought.

Last night, he went to look for the leader of the human traffickers, but couldn't find him. After catching him, he found out that the man had gone out and had not returned.

This is normal, but I left enough clues and no one came to check the water meter, which proves that the secret here is deeper than I thought.

Underground research institute, the Faith Sect, the shadow of the Herrscher...

Ryan sat there blankly, peeling the "onion", but he lacked any clues and was unsure about many things.

"The thing I can't understand the most is the Herrscher. It's definitely not the Herrscher of Ice. How could it be born under the nose of the Fire Moth?"

"Could it be the Sixth Ruler? No, that's not right. The Sixth Ruler is the Ruler of Death. His authority should not include such tricks."

Ryan tapped his fingers on the table and thought about it. There were probably two possibilities.

First, it was my own illusion, after all, there was no data or images to support it.

Second, the Sixth Herrscher is not the Herrscher of Death at all. Honkai has already adjusted the order, and it is possible that the Herrscher of Domination will be brought out in advance.

Judging from the current situation, the second possibility is more likely, but how could a lawyer be related to an abandoned research institute?

He couldn't figure it out, so he took out his cell phone and used the satellite signal to dial a number.

"Hey?"

"Mei, is it convenient to talk now?"

It was evening in Mu Continent. Mei, who had finally spared some time, glanced at Kevin who was waiting at the door, lowered her head and walked towards a secluded place, leaving someone helplessly clutching the rose hidden behind her back.

"It's convenient now, you say."

"I met someone who looked like a Herrscher in Northern Europe. He wasn't the Herrscher of Ice who escaped, but something was a little strange."

Ryan briefly explained the situation and mentioned what they had casually talked about last time at the bottom floor of the headquarters. Mei's expression suddenly became serious.

"You found an abandoned research institute of the Fire Moth. The coordinates are..." The girl muttered while searching her memory. She quickly shook her head: "It's not in the archives. The Fire Moth has never set up a research institute in that area, unless the relevant information has been deleted."

"According to your description, this institute is not small in scale and the cost is also high. It should not have disappeared from the archives."

Of course Mei knew that the Fire Moth was not clean and all kinds of human experiments were being carried out. There was nothing she could do as this era could not tolerate the existence of a saint.

"So it's very strange that unless this research is of great significance to some people, the results are not appropriate to be published."

some people?

Mei thought about it and immediately understood who Ryan was referring to, her face expressionless.

"Got it. I'll try my best to check it, starting with the flow of funds."

She hung up the phone immediately and gestured to Kevin, who was immediately deflated, knowing that he had waited in vain again tonight.
