"There's movement inside, be careful." Talulah, signaling FrostNova to prepare.

She took a deep breath, held the Originium Sword horizontally in front of her, and the scorching Originium energy began to slowly gather.

The two squeezed through the crack in the door.

The corridor was a mess, with bullet holes and scorch marks from the explosion on the walls, and weapon parts and still-wet bloodstains scattered on the floor.

Several people dressed in Chaos Insurgency uniforms were secretly doing something.

"They are Chaos Insurgency!" Talulah cold, and without the slightest hesitation, she ordered, "Eliminate them!"

Before she finished speaking, she had already transformed into a crimson meteor and charged into the enemy ranks!

The Originium Sword flashed with a scorching arc of light, precisely grazing the neck of a Splinter who was firing his gun.

The splitter was cut down in one blow before he could even react.

FrostNova concentrated her chilling aura at the tip of her staff, and an ice spike instantly froze another Splitter, turning him into an ice sculpture.

The remaining Chaos Insurgency, realizing they were under attack from behind, were thrown into chaos.

Under the attacks of Talulah and FrostNova, this small rearguard was quickly wiped out.

Some low-threat anomalies thrown out by the Chaos Insurgency were also incinerated into ashes by a few flames casually flicked by Talulah.

The corridor fell silent for the time being, with only the faint hum of the emergency lights flashing.

"This is the end." Talulah flicked her sword, her gaze fixed on the heavy gate at the end of the corridor leading to the core area of B Sector, which was now tightly shut. "The target is just ahead. Prepare to break through."

However, before she could finish speaking, an extremely ominous premonition instantly chilled her to the bone.

It was a shiver that stemmed from an instinct for survival.

What's in front of me is a monster!!

At the end of the corridor, in the shadows before that tightly closed gate, the air began to Distortion slightly, emitting a mind-numbing buzzing sound.

Suddenly, a petite figure slowly and silently emerged from the shadows.

Finally, under the Distortion lights, Talulah and the others could see clearly what was in front of them.

A girl covered in blood, with almost half of her body hollowed out, stared at them.

"Disappear... you will all disappear..."

Entity...239.

An extremely powerful Reality-Warping Ability appeared here; she was completely different from Reni.

Upon seeing Talulah and the others become alert, the monster resembling a girl simply lowered its head and slowly flew towards them.

And so, Demon Girl 239 skipped over this squad.

There was no fighting, no explosions.

In the silence, Talulah and the others vanished, as if they had never existed.

They died, they vanished.

However, their souls were forcibly preserved by the company amidst the Reality Warping and incorporated into Phoenix Project.

Angela, who was also closely monitoring the log, also changed her expression.

"Why are the containment objects from Site-17 located in Site-19? What happened? How could the Chaos Insurgency manage to bring this thing here? Do they have that kind of capability?"

Since Ku Tang was already a full-time employee of the company, and she was also a former A-level supervisor before her death, this part of her memory was not erased.

Therefore, Angela was very clear about the Foundation's affairs.

How could a demonic little girl have breached containment? What happened?!

Angela frowned deeply.

239 also noticed Xiao Huasheng and the others.

Those souls that should have disappeared broke through her abilities and left directly, which 239 clearly sensed.

She looked in the direction where Xiao Huasheng was, his bleeding head twitching, with a lot of tubes trailing on the ground connecting to his body.

These were originally the Foundation's methods for permanently silencing it, so this is tantamount to containment failure.

"Yes, you're just like me... Why, why are you so smug?"

Chapter Twenty-Six: Forever Trapped in the Cage of Dreams [1 Update]

Angela and Xiao Huasheng instantly felt an extremely strong sense of threat.

The opponent truly possesses the ability to threaten the two of them, and it's not impossible for them to be trapped permanently.

This was a feeling neither of them had ever experienced before.

Inside the containment room, the red-haired Angel placed her tablet on the sofa and sent a final message to the employees, urging them to stay away from the facility and confirming that Talulah and the others' souls were still within the company.

She placed her hand on Angela's shoulder with a serious expression.

"Angela, leave this to me."

"Careful."

Angela opened her mouth, but in the end, she only uttered this one sentence.

Then, Angela's figure disappeared from Xiao Huasheng's sight.

Bathed in the light surrounding the Angel halo, something eerie and strange was approaching from outside the pitch-black room.

The red-haired Angel abandoned her playful mood, letting the Vector dangle from her hand as she stared at the doorway.

She stood in the darkness, confronting something.

She could sense that the anomaly, its reality- Distortion domain, was spreading like an invisible tide.

However, the anticipated direct impact did not materialize.

Suddenly, the solid alloy floor beneath her feet rippled with colorful waves, like water ripples on the surface of a lake after a pebble has been thrown in!

"This is?!"

Xiao Huasheng only had time to let out a cry of surprise before he felt his feet sink into the ground!

This is not a floor collapse, but rather the concept of 'below' itself has been Distortion. This area has directly lost the concept of 'below', causing this space to be infinitely stretched.

She instantly lost all support and plummeted straight into the abyss!

"Ugh--!"

The feeling of weightlessness suddenly gripped her, and her heart felt like it was about to leap out of her chest.

She tried to stop herself and hover in the air, but this didn't fall into the category of 'falling' because there was no 'below'. Her attempts to fly were futile.

"This guy..." This is definitely the strangest guy Xiao Huasheng has ever encountered. The other party has not shown up yet, and there is no way to attack him.

Looking up, what should have been the ceiling had now become a swirling vortex of Distortion colors.

Looking down, she saw the ceiling appear 'below' her, and her original location seemed to be stretching further and further away.

The sofa she had been sitting on was now distorted and suspended in a bizarre way on one side of the path of the fall, torn to pieces.

Color loses its meaning here, or rather, all the colors that shouldn't appear at the same time are forcibly mixed together, which is beyond the scope of human understanding.

Whose world is this?

This is the shattered world in Entity 239's heart, her spiritual world riddled with holes.

She simply brought her inner thoughts to life.

The air was thick with the pungent smell of urine mixed with medicine, and the stench of blood and tears.

This is the only sense that Entity 239 can smell; under her constant Reality Warping, beauty has long been lost in her reality.

Unlike Xiao Huasheng, who can voluntarily shut down his Reality-Warping Ability, high-level Reality-Warping Ability are forever trapped in their own cages, never able to see the true nature of the world.

Seeing the world Distortion by them, all she saw was a bizarre world altered by themselves.

Or perhaps, they will forever live in their own dreams, unable to wake up.

Unlike Xiao Huasheng, who woke up from a dream and saw the truth of the world.

It is both a tragedy and a misfortune.

The Large Reality Stabilization Anchor is vibrating at an increasingly rapid, dull, and urgent frequency, clearly operating beyond its capacity, attempting to "nail" this collapsing reality back into place.

Even Large Reality Stabilization Anchor couldn't pull back the plummeting Hume Index here; the very center had been transformed into a reality vacuum.

The structure of reality shatters like fragile glass.

She keeps falling, never knowing where the end will be.

"Stop."

Under these circumstances, Xiao Huasheng spoke, and her Reality-Warping Ability was activated simultaneously.

At this extremely low Hume Index, this Reality Warping instantly brought the tactile sensation of the ground back to her senses.

As if his back had fallen into some kind of sticky soil, the red-haired Angel sank deep into it.

Unsurprisingly, she simply climbed out and looked up.

The space that was originally the size of a single room has now been expanded to an infinite size.

The wings of light behind her had already unfolded, their holy radiance illuminating the surrounding darkness.

But with half her leg still embedded in this strange, muddy substance, Xiao Huasheng did not attempt to change the ground beneath her feet.

Her energy is limited and cannot be wasted on these pointless things.

This time, her situation was far more serious than before. She had truly encountered a high-level Reality Bender, someone on a completely different level from Reni, who was just a half-baked one.

"Angela... what should I do?"

[...]

There was complete silence; not a sound could be heard.

Her connection with Lobotomy Corporation was severed in this space; was this also one of their capabilities?

Angela also said that the Lobotomy Corporation is in her soul, it is a part of her soul.

How could she possibly sever her own soul and divide it into pieces?

How could someone possess such an ability?

Believe it or not, this is the reality.

Xiao Huasheng could only purse his lips and activate his own Reality-Warping Ability.

With a soft "poof," as if a membrane had been pierced, reality once again flowed into this void, and the connection was re-established.

Angela's urgent voice echoed in Xiao Huasheng's mind.

[Manager, that thing is right behind you! Her hand is on your head! Stop her! She's going to take everything from you!!]

"What?!"

Xiao Huasheng's blinded eyes finally saw the truth.

The sight that came into view made her pupils shrink, and a chill ran down her spine to the top of her head.

Unbeknownst to her, Entity 239 had silently appeared behind her, so close they were almost touching.

239 That petite body, half-hollowed out and dripping with dark red viscous liquid, was pressed tightly against Xiao Huasheng from behind in an extremely intimate yet incredibly bizarre posture.

Her pale, stained little hands were tightly clasped around Xiao Huasheng's head, and her head was pressed against the red-haired Angel's head.

His fingertips dug slightly into the fragrant red hair.

It was because of that smell.

In this world unique to her, a strange fragrance had also appeared, mingling with the stench of urine and medicinal filth, making it even more nauseating.

239. That face, which should have belonged to a child, revealed a terrifying smile filled with pain.

She grinned, her mouth almost stretching to her ears, revealing her gleaming white teeth.

"I...like...you." 239 uttered only a few words.

Chapter 27: 239 is now live [1 update]

Xiao Huasheng could clearly feel a malevolent force, like countless tiny venomous snakes, trying to burrow into the depths of her consciousness through those hands!
