Pacifica's Holy Bible Church.
This is the church where Pacifica's Haitian residents often gather.
It is also where the Voodoo Boys perform their rituals.
When Luoqi and the other person attacked the Bati Grand Hotel, several Voodoo Boys members in the church received the news.
"The base has been invaded, hurry and go support."
Several Voodoo Boys netrunners immediately prepared to temporarily halt their rituals and head to the Bati Grand Hotel for support.
But just as they were about to leave the church to rush to the rescue, a communication voice in their minds stopped them.
"Don't go for support, notify the others in the church, return to the secret underground base, immediately, quickly."
The voice of the Voodoo Boys leader, Brigitte, came through the communication.
She instructed these netrunners not to get involved in the Bati Grand Hotel matter but to immediately gather at the secret base.
Although Brigitte had just been handling Blackwall-related matters in the secret base.
But when Luoqi and the other person invaded the Bati Grand Hotel, she immediately received information.
As the gang leader, she clearly knew the situation on the other side through the Haishen Subnet.
So she knew very well that the Voodoo Boys were really in trouble this time.
Judging from the images returned from Haishen and the speed at which the Voodoo Boys were dying.
Brigitte understood that no matter how many more people she sent, it would just be sending them to their deaths.
Therefore, she could only immediately gather the remaining forces and temporarily seek other breakthrough methods in this secret base.
At least this secret base located in the abandoned underground intercontinental maglev tunnel is unknown to anyone except the Voodoo Boys.
Brigitte believed that Ascension Technology would temporarily not be able to find this place.
After all, even Network Surveillance hadn't been able to find this place during their long confrontations with the Voodoo Boys.
Brigitte was quite confident in the Voodoo Boys' secret base.
Soon, the remaining Voodoo Boys members gathered in the secret base.
"What is the situation with these two people! And what happened in cyberspace, why did they find us so quickly, and where did these guys' ICE come from."
In the base, a core member of the Voodoo Boys asked a series of questions in an angry and fearful tone.
They had all witnessed the tragic state of the Bati Grand Hotel.
Now the entire Voodoo Boys gang is in a state of panic, fearing that this incident is the beginning of the Voodoo Boys' demise.
But fortunately, Brigitte, as the leader, maintained a certain degree of composure.
"Calm down, what we need to do now is solve this matter, not ask these meaningless questions here."
At this time, Brigitte was operating the terminal, while disconnecting the Haishen Subnet from the Bati Grand Hotel to make their network independent and prevent the enemy from tracking them, while also calming the emotions of the gang members.
"Then how do we solve it? If they find this place, none of us will escape."
"Don't worry, they won't find this place, don't panic yourselves," Brigitte comforted.
But just as she was confidently saying that the Ascension Technology people wouldn't know about this place.
A dissenting voice sounded in the base.
"As expected of the Voodoo Boys leader, so optimistic even at a time like this."
Brigitte recognized the voice; it didn't belong to any member of the Voodoo Boys.
It was from that hateful man who had killed a group of Voodoo Boys with a single punch at the Bati Grand Hotel.
As the words fell, Luoqi and Rebecca's invisibility devices shut off, revealing their figures.
After dealing with the Voodoo Boys members at the Bati Grand Hotel, Luoqi followed his memory and found this place.
The Voodoo Boys' self-proclaimed secret base was no secret in Luoqi's eyes.
After all, the V he controlled was once led here by Brigitte; he had a deep impression of this place.
Facing the sudden appearance of Luoqi and Rebecca, the Voodoo Boys members in the base immediately raised their guns in alert.
But Brigitte waved her hand, signaling them to put them down.
Because she knew that using these weapons against these two was completely useless.
Their appearance here meant either a peaceful resolution or their deaths.
"Ascension Technology, L and Rebecca, right? I think I haven't mistaken you.
Let me introduce myself, I am the leader of the Voodoo Boys, Brigitte."
Brigitte calmly introduced herself.
Then she continued.
"The Voodoo Boys accidentally invaded Ascension Technology's data fortress, so you've come knocking.
I understand the reason you're doing this; there's a cause and effect, it's normal.
But I think this matter might not need to be so absolute. Is there a peaceful way to resolve our dispute?"
Luoqi didn't expect Brigitte to be so calm after the enemy found their lair, and he couldn't help but look at her with higher regard.
"Tell me about it," Luoqi said, somewhat curious, motioning for her to continue.
"Regarding the invasion of your company, the Voodoo Boys did not gain any data, and we paid the price with the lives of many members.
I hope this matter can be settled here. Furthermore, the Voodoo Boys can help Ascension Technology with a few things for free, as an expression of our apology.
I believe you should understand the Voodoo Boys' network capabilities. Many dirty and difficult jobs that are inconvenient for your company to handle can be entrusted to the Voodoo Boys, and I believe you will achieve a satisfactory result.
Isn't a gang that can help you do things more valuable than a dead gang?"
Brigitte spoke at Luoqi's signal, putting forward the conditions she considered reasonable.
And facing the peace terms proposed by Brigitte, Luoqi first smiled slightly.
But just as Brigitte thought the peace talks were successful.
Luoqi spoke words from his mouth that made her despair.
"Your condition is very tempting, but I refuse."
What Brigitte said was very tempting. First, she said that the Voodoo Boys did not steal Ascension Technology's data, and then she said they could help Ascension Technology do things.
She put herself in a very low position, and what she said made a certain amount of sense.
Every company will have dirty and difficult jobs that are inconvenient to handle themselves. At this time, they will use these gangs in Night City or mercenaries.
So the existence of these gangs is not a bad thing for companies, because they rarely dare to provoke them directly, and they can help them do things at critical moments.
If it were a normal company, they might not really go for a complete wipeout but would choose to keep a helper who is beneficial to them.
But unfortunately, the Voodoo Boys encountered Ascension Technology.
Ascension Technology doesn't need the Voodoo Boys to help them do things.
As for compensation for this invasion, Luoqi will personally retrieve it from the Voodoo Boys' server.
