Apocalypse Regression's

Behind the Angel Mask

Three days have passed.

After spreading the invitation, Ark and his comrades returned to the headquarters of the Golden Maple Group. Each team had invited two groups, so in total there were ten groups. Three large groups were worse than the Golden Maple Group and seven middle-level groups.

“Hey Ark! I have completed the task well, even hitting and rubbing their faces to the ground to convince.”

Ark looked at Aisha who was walking towards him with a smile. It seemed to be waiting for the praise of the young man.

“Good work, Aisha. You guys too, Roxanne, Angelica, Jay.”

Hearing Ark's praise, the four of them nodded.

Unlike the usual Jay, Ark knew that the three women must have gotten into a bit of trouble negotiating. After all, now women are seen as inferior because they are considered to have no power.

That was also the reason why Ark let Roxanne, Aisha, and Angelica use their powers. There is absolutely no need to speak in a friendly manner as it will only be humbled.

Arriving at the headquarters of the Golden Maple Group, they were all greeted with an unexpected sight.

“What happened here?”

Looking at the many pale-looking people, Jay immediately asked with a worried look on his face.

“Nobody knows for sure, Young Master. It seems we are food poisoning or something.”

“Hah? Is it not cured immediately?”

Hearing the man's explanation, Jay immediately asked. I didn't think I would get an answer like that.

“Meet your father and mother directly.” Ark interrupted immediately.

“Understanding.”

They all went straight into the building. After Ark asked the other members of Sword of Sufferings to rest, he followed Jay to meet Chris and Lara.

Entering the office, they both saw the figures of Chris and Lara who looked very pale.

“What happened to you Mom, Dad? Why are you so pale? Have you taken any medication?”

Hearing the endless questions from Jay's mouth, the two looked at each other with wry smiles on their faces.

“Diam Jay. Let your father and mother explain everything.”

Hearing Ark's words, Jay finally became calmer. He looked at his father and mother with worry. Waiting for answers from both of their mouths.

“Actually, we just think that everyone is food poisoning because they mistakenly ate the fruit. However, there are some issues that make us suspicious.

It seemed, the high-ranking poisonings were quite severe and the ordinary members were not too severe. In addition, Chelsea suddenly disappeared when needed. I don't know what really happened, but ..”

Obviously, they suspect Chelsea are disappearing all of a sudden.

“It's impossible right? Chelsea is a very nice girl. He also helped the Golden Maple Group a lot over the years. How could the girl have betrayed you? He doesn't even have a place to go.”

Jay immediately denied the thoughts of his parents. He has a good impression on Chelsea, so doesn't want to think about anything bad about the girl before there's any evidence.

“We also don't want to blame Chelsea, Son. It's just that all the clues lead there. Even without clear evidence, we can guess that he was the cause.”

Lara said with a wry smile on her face. The woman already considers Chelsea as her own son-in-law. So what happened now left him pretty devastated.

“For a while, forget that kind of thinking. I'll provide you with medicine to drink. After that, Jay and I will check it out. Could have, we found a clue about the disappearance of Chelsea.”

“Good.”

Chris and Lara nodded.

Ark then gave them a type of antidote and a parasite killer drug. Because according to her conjecture, their illness had something to do with those two things.

Afterwards, Ark summoned the people from the Sword of Sufferings to hand out the diluted antidote and parasite killer to the poisoned members of the Golden Maple Group.

As the number is still somewhat lacking, Ark only gave it to people who seem to be quite ill. He also sent letters to the headquarters via Huginn and Muninn to convey important information as well as to request supplies of antidotes and other drugs.

Until there, Ark and Jay saw many types of plants stored, completely untouched at least in the front of the small house. The refreshing aroma of various herbs spread throughout the house, but the house itself still looked silent and gloomy.

“We have to check his room!”

After saying that, Jay went straight to Chelsea's room.

Arriving there, Ark and Jay only saw an empty room with a cold bed. It looked dusty as several days had been left behind.

“Truly no.”

Checking room by room without occupants, Jay looked tired. Despite wanting to believe that Chelsea had nothing to do with the problems that happened to the Golden Maple Group, the reality is so bitter.

“Do you think Chelsea really do that kind of Ark?”

“Most possibilities yes.” Ark nodded lightly. “Again, all the clues lead there.”

“Although she's a good girl?”

“Can it be a trick.”

“...”

Hearing that, Jay took a deep breath. They both then checked every corner of the house.

A few hours later, Ark suddenly spoke.

“Smart girl.”

Hearing that, Jay looked confused.

Just then, Ark opened a small crack under a large bench in the lab room. Just then, the stairs leading to the dark room appeared.

A strong aroma instantly appeared, but it soon disappeared due to the scent of herbs in the lab. Jay who knew the source of the scent instantly turned pale.

“This ..”

“Yes. Scents of carrion, rotten meat, and such things.”

Ark shrugged with a careless expression on his face. The young man then went downstairs, into the dark passageway.

Jay followed. The two of them then walked down the hallway. A short while later, the two arrived at a spacious room with a shocking sight.

There was a large room illuminated by an oil lantern. There, there appeared to be many cages containing many human corpses. From young to old, whether it's a boy or a girl. Their appearance was obviously very pitiful.

Those people were clearly the subjects of the experiments used to develop various potions. Not only evolutionary herbs, but also other herbs such as antidotes, stamina enhancers, and the like.

In addition to rotting corpses that had human appearances, there were also some corpses that had mutations. It was similar to the cannibals.

“Proof has been found. You can see it clearly Jay. The girl you thought the angel turned out to be the devil.”

“...”

Jay did not answer, but his hands clenched tightly. He clearly saw the vile behavior Chelsea had done to his victims.

Looking at the dark hallway on the other side of the room, Jay glanced at Ark.

“Are we going to check it?”

Hearing that, Ark nodded lightly. He then replied.

“Because it has arrived here, then we will check it until the end.”

Ark actually already had his own conjecture. But he kept checking it again. Not only to ascertain the truth, but also to make Jay see everything more clearly.

Let it grow by absorbing more experience.
