But she dared not make any rash moves, and could not even stop Harley's hands that were running rampant on her buttocks. She could only look at Su Hui.
The two of them just stared at each other.
Su Hui ignored Harley's ravings. His gaze was deep and unfathomable as he calmly watched Bayonetta, the witch whose body was stiff in his arms.
Harley's proposal was undeniably tempting to Su Hui.
He is indeed considering this proposal.
The Seed of Loyalty.
This was a trump card he had specially prepared to deal with the current situation.
Once the seed is planted, this mysterious and powerful woman will become his most loyal servant, and all the secrets she knows, and the organization behind her, will be revealed to him.
The temptation is undeniably great.
However, the Phantom Troupe organization behind Bayonetta made him wary.
Does this woman still have a backup plan?
What kind of powerful figures are hidden within that organization?
Controlling her with force is certainly simple and direct, but will the power of the [Seed of Loyalty], which involves the soul, be detected by the more powerful beings in the [Phantom Troupe]?
Once the "Seed of Loyalty" is discovered, it will inevitably lead to conflict with the "Phantom Troupe" organization, attracting even more powerful enemies, and things will become more complicated.
Su Hui's gaze toward Bayonetta unconsciously carried a hint of scrutiny and contemplation.
Bayonetta was incredibly perceptive; she immediately noticed this subtle change.
Bayonetta could sense the complexity in Su Hui's gaze as he looked at her. It wasn't desire, but the look of a hunter eyeing its prey, ready to capture it.
Bayonetta's alarm bells rang, and her expression instantly became extremely solemn.
The Bayonetta glanced sideways at Harley, who was beaming with excitement, and finally admitted that she had been too overconfident this time.
Next second,
She stopped struggling and instead reached out her slender hand, clad in a white lace glove, and gently placed it on Su Hui's firm chest.
That spot was right in his heart.
This gesture, though seemingly affectionate, is actually full of warning.
“Mr. Su Hui, it seems that my joke earlier was indeed a bit too much.”
Bayonetta's voice regained its composure, the previous frivolity gone, replaced by the calmness of a strong person.
“I admit that I underestimated you and your team.”
She paused, her gray eyes, behind her glasses, looking directly into Su Hui's eyes, and said, word by word.
"However, I still have to remind you of something."
“Our [group] doesn’t just have Tier 3 members like me.”
"Do you really want to... give it a try?"
"The power of the [Tournament] far exceeds your imagination."
Upon hearing this, Su Hui narrowed his eyes.
At present, his strength is far from being able to ignore everything.
Moreover, since her appearance, Bayonetta has maintained a friendly attitude and a sincere desire for cooperation, despite her flippant remarks.
Just then.
"What's going on!"
"Chairman! The Chairman, he..."
"Quickly! Seal off the scene!"
A sudden commotion and shouts erupted outside the meeting room, with chaotic sounds continuing to emanate from the room.
The sound of hurried footsteps approached from afar, indicating that someone had discovered the body of the chairman of Huanyu Group.
This sudden turn of events instantly attracted everyone's attention.
Taking advantage of the moment when Su Hui turned his gaze to the door, Bayonetta twisted her waist and, like the slipperiest fish, finally broke free from his iron-like embrace.
She took two steps back without making a sound, creating a safe distance between herself and Su Hui, and regained her elegance and composure, as if the embarrassment she had just experienced had never happened.
Su Hui glanced at her but did not stop her.
If Bayonetta hadn't changed her mindset, she would never have escaped her own control.
"I agree to the cooperation."
Su Hui's voice was calm yet powerful, drawing everyone's attention back to the present.
Su Hui glanced at the chaotic corridor outside the door, then turned his gaze back to Bayonetta, his tone calm but carrying an undeniable authority.
"However, I want to see the leader of your [Brigade] and talk to him in person."
Upon hearing this, Bayonetta's delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly.
"I can make contact for you."
She hesitated for a moment, then said frankly, "But I can't guarantee that I will succeed."
“Our commander… has more important things to do, and she may not even be in America right now.”
Seeing a slight flicker in Su Hui's eyes, Bayonetta changed the subject.
"However, given the potential you've shown, Mr. Su Hui, I can inform Merlin on your behalf."
"Perhaps she'd be interested in coming to New York to meet you in person."
"can."
Su Hui didn't insist, knowing that these things couldn't be rushed.
"I can wait."
"But before that, I need you to tell me everything you know about this world, about dimensional disasters, and about your [group]. There can be no secrets."
"make a deal."
Bayonetta readily agreed.
Su Hui nodded, then looked at Emma.
"I'm leaving this place to you."
He instructed, "You stay here with Claire and Harley, deal with these high-ranking officials, control the riot, and also have a good talk with Miss Bayonetta."
Emma understood and nodded slightly.
Although Su Hui was extremely eager for the information Bayonetta had mentioned, he knew even more clearly what was most important at the moment.
"I must go to the underground research facility with Ava. As for leading the way..."
He turned around, his cold gaze falling on Cole, who stood to the side like a puppet, completely controlled by his mind.
"Cole, take us to the underground research facility," Su Hui ordered Cole, who was standing beside him.
Cole nodded expressionlessly and turned to lead the way.
Ava followed behind Su Hui, and when she heard the words "underground research institute," a barely perceptible change finally appeared on her cold face.
Robin.....
Am I finally going to see my sister again?
.......
As a secret area of the Universal Group, the Pandora Research Institute is located in an extremely secure location, with various high-tech security systems in place at every level.
Led by Cole, Su Hui and Ava passed through the luxurious conference floor, ignoring the chaotic crowd, and took a private elevator, descending straight into the depths of the earth.
The elevator descended at an extremely fast speed, and the numbers representing the floors on the cold metal walls jumped rapidly before finally settling on a negative number.
Ding.
The elevator doors opened, and a blast of air mixed with the smell of disinfectant and cold metal rushed out.
Before me was a pure white alloy corridor, so shiny it was like a mirror. Every few meters, a team of fully armed security personnel with cold expressions patrolled with guns.
Countless surveillance cameras, like indifferent eyes, are everywhere.
"This is the core research base of the Huanyu Group,"
As Cole walked, he explained, "The security level is S-level. Without special authorization, you're not even allowed to get close."
"The underground research institute adopts the highest-standard 'honeycomb' defense structure, with independent energy and an air circulation system that is completely isolated from the outside world."
“Each gate requires both specific permissions and biometric verification.”
Ava followed Su Hui's side, proactively providing him with additional information.
“Master, we are only in the outer area now.”
"Here, we are mainly responsible for routine material analysis and data processing."
Through the thick bulletproof glass, one can see people in white lab coats rushing about in individual laboratories, operating various precision instruments with blank expressions.
Fully armed security personnel were stationed every three steps and sentries every five steps, creating a tense atmosphere.
"The underground research institute of Huanyu Group is mainly divided into two parts, inner and outer. The real core secrets are all in the inner area."
However, with Cole, a high-ranking official within the company, leading the way, no one stopped them along the way.
After walking through a long corridor, the three arrived at a huge alloy gate.
Cole stepped forward, placed his palm on the scanner, and underwent iris and voiceprint scanning. After a series of complex verification procedures, the heavy gate, as imposing as a city gate, slowly slid open to both sides with a muffled hydraulic sound.
"This is the core area inside the company, and it's also the most heavily guarded place in the entire Huanyu Group."
As the gate opened, a strong stench of disinfectant, blood, and decay hit us.
The scene before my eyes was completely different from the orderly world outside.
This is what truly feels like hell.
The enormous glass container was filled with the dismembered remains of various dimensional monsters and the distorted corpses of mutants.
Rows of monitors hung on the walls, displaying shocking data on human experiments.
From outside some semi-transparent isolation laboratories, one can even see experimental subjects bound to operating tables convulsing in pain, emitting beast-like howls. Occasionally, out-of-control experimental subjects will crash into reinforced glass, emitting shrill screams or uncontrolled roars.
This is where the most core and bloodiest secret of the Universal Group lies.
Cole's arrival immediately drew the attention of those inside the core area.
An elderly man with gray hair, a sinister look in his eyes, and wearing a blood-stained white lab coat walked over quickly, surrounded by a group of researchers.
When he saw Su Hui and Ava behind Cole, his face immediately revealed undisguised disgust and arrogance.
"Cole! What's going on? Who gave you permission to bring unauthorized personnel into the core area!"
The old man, with a hoarse voice, questioned in an unfriendly tone, his manner full of the imperious air of someone in a superior position.
"And what exactly happened up there? Why is the entire safe zone in chaos?! I can't get in touch with the chairman!"
Cole stopped, turned to the side expressionlessly, and introduced Su Hui.
"Sir, he is Dr. Royce, the principal of the Pandora Institute."
"If you want to know about Miss Robin, you can ask him directly."
"Furthermore, regarding the most important secret in the laboratory... the location of that hidden singularity space is known only to him, the chairman, and a very few others."
Dr. Royce frowned even more deeply upon hearing Cole's respectful attitude towards Su Hui, his eyes filled with dissatisfaction and doubt.
He finally turned his sharp gaze to Su Hui, looking him up and down with displeasure.
And who are you?
An ominous premonition rose in his heart, and he quietly made a subtle gesture with his hand behind his back.
The armed men who appeared to be bodyguards around him instantly became wary, secretly manipulating the still conscious mutant experimental subjects in several cages, subtly forming an encirclement around Su Hui.
Dr. Royce's gaze then turned to Cole, his expression growing even more somber.
"Didn't I say long ago that Robin is crucial to our research and that no one is allowed to visit her?"
