The Demon in the Mirror!

Nanchang.

The convention center.

A group of armed soldiers guarded the outside of the convention center, their expressions highly tense.

"Captain, what do you think is being held inside?"

"I don't know, but if you value your life, take my advice and don't be curious."

"Not even a little bit?"

"...I don't know either."

"I heard someone say that we're escorting a rare animal this time, and the organization seems to want to use it for some kind of experiment."

As one of them spoke, a human face was reflected on the barrel of his gun.

Seeing this, the man suddenly turned his gun, but there was nothing behind him.

"Captain, what's wrong?"

The man spun his gun around, "Strange, I clearly saw something..."

Snap.

Before the man could finish speaking, his neck was suddenly twisted by something!

Blood mixed with bone turned into a twisted mess. Another person saw this and immediately retreated. Unexpectedly, the moonlight reflected, and the man's head exploded.

Bang!

Blood gushed out, and a figure brazenly pushed open the convention center doors and entered an underground facility.

The underground facility was brightly lit, and Wang Haonan's figure was constantly reflected on the polished walls and floor.

Several armed soldiers walked by, their reflections appearing in the mirrors.

A line of blood flashed, and several people were instantly decapitated.

Wang Haonan's figure continued to weave through the reflective walls, quickly reaching the deepest part of the underground building.

In the deepest part of the building, a large snake was being held captive.

Wang Haonan approached the large snake, "It seems this isn't the place either."

Just then, a man with snake-like eyes suddenly appeared behind Wang Haonan.

"Look who it is?"

"003, you walk right into hell's gates when heaven's path is open to you."

Wang Haonan turned around. Behind him was a Class A containment specialist, the Nine-Tailed Fox.

The guy had snake-like eyes, fish-like scales on his arms, and a long, strange tongue.

Wang Haonan took out the information he had found in another building earlier.

"You're Cobra, right?"

Cobra chuckled, "Ah, it's me. Not being able to contain you last time was a waste of all my specialized abilities for dealing with you."

"Do you know, all our abilities come from a piece of candy."

"When our hearts desire something, the candy will respond to our expectations."

"For example, I desired the ability to deal with an invisible person, so I gained eyes like a snake's that possess thermal sensing."

Wang Haonan touched his chin upon hearing this, "So, your abilities all originate from a so-called piece of candy."

"And the content of the ability depends on each of your requests."

"Then why don't you wish for invincible power?"

Cobra shrugged, "There are many kinds of invincibility. For example, a certain guy wished for invincible power, but he only gained the ability to phase his body."

"On some level, he is indeed invincible because in a phased state, he cannot be killed or attacked. No one can match him."

"But this kind of invincibility is clearly fundamentally different from the invincibility we envisioned. Fundamentally, it's also possible that the candy box itself has limited abilities, so the abilities it can grant are also limited."

Wang Haonan smiled, "Then why not try eating a few more pieces of candy?"

"Eating more candy, of course, would be good, but a certain guy has already turned into pus and blood from eating two pieces," Cobra said, a small snake appearing on his arm.

"Alright, alright, if you want to chat, we can go back and talk slowly."

"Aren't you going to go invisible?"

Wang Haonan smiled faintly and then instantly disappeared from his spot!

Cobra grinned, his eyes widening. He immediately began sensing heat sources nearby!

But strangely, there were no heat sources in the vicinity.

"Where is he?"

Cobra was stunned for a moment, and the next second, his head was violently severed by something, falling directly to the ground!

Gush!

Blood sprayed, and Wang Haonan appeared behind the Cobra.

"Your information is a bit outdated."

"Who even uses invisibility these days?"

With that, Wang Haonan swaggered out of the club.

After Wang Haonan left, a rift suddenly tore open in the space before them.

Chen Ye emerged from the rift, grabbed the Cobra's corpse, and then looked at the large snake in the cage before him.

"Hmm... I think I can make something good out of this."

Upon seeing Chen Ye, the large snake shriveled up, its body trembling instinctively, as if it had seen something abominable that threatened its very existence.

Gazing at the trembling snake, Chen Ye's hand passed through the cage and gently stroked the large snake's head.

"Don't be afraid, he is the material."

"And you will evolve, achieving unparalleled beauty."

With that, Chen Ye directly grabbed the cage, tore open a rift, and vanished into the void with the large snake.

At the other end of the rift.

It was a bizarre, black hall.

This place existed at the boundary between reality and spirit, not belonging to any corner of the material world.

Chen Ye's flowers, along with his test subjects and the Double-eared Pot, were all piled here.

Now, a large snake and the corpse of a snake-man had been added.

"No need to be nervous, relax, this won't hurt at all."

Chen Ye cut open the snake-man's corpse and threw it into the pot. From top to bottom, not an inch was left out.

But miraculously, no matter how much he threw in, the potion always remained at 100 milliliters.

Nine-Tailed Fox Headquarters.

"The Cobra is dead."

"What?"

"Who did it?!"

"According to the undamaged surveillance footage, it should be 003."

"Impossible, the Cobra's abilities are a direct counter to 003. Even if that idiot was careless, he couldn't have done it this easily..."

"Unless 003 evolved."

"006 is already dead. According to our assumptions, no new monsters should be produced, and therefore no monsters should evolve further."

"Have you forgotten the other hypothesis we proposed earlier?"

"The one that 006 wasn't the one creating monsters, but something else was."

"Even though 006 is dead, that something else hasn't disappeared. Someone has taken over 006's work."

"Do you remember the question Chu Yang asked before he died?"

"Chu Yang asked 006, 'Will there be no more new monsters if I kill you?'"

"006's answer at the time was, 'Are you really sure?'"

"This is... troublesome..."

One person walked directly to a containment cell.

This cell's designation was 002.

He looked inside through the glass and saw Li Yuan imprisoned within.

Sensing someone watching him, Li Yuan looked up.

"What, you're not going to execute me yet? Friendly reminder, you guys are running out of time."

One person asked through the glass, "What do you mean?"

Li Yuan grinned, "Literally. The Death God has arrived."

As he spoke, a figure suddenly appeared reflected in the mirror.

Before the two could react, their reflections in the mirror had their heads severed!

Wang Haonan stepped out of the glass. "It seems I've found the right place this time."

"Li Yuan, long time no see."
