Jason stepped on it, slipped, and hit his forehead on the mirror, also getting his eye pierced by a disposable toothbrush.

Since the nature of Death's existence and whether it possesses self-awareness are still unclear, Russell decided to bring Jason over to act as a scapegoat for now. It would be best if Death possessed intelligence; Immortal Body would be a challenge to Divine Authority, and in a fit of anger, Jason might forget about the toilet paper incident.

Pfft!

Jason pulled the toothbrush out of his eye socket, removed his eyeball, and stuffed it back in. Seeing Russell finish getting ready and leave, he wisely followed him stealthily.

Outside the hotel, Russell rode his motorcycle to a newsstand, bought a copy of all the newspapers for the day, found a coffee shop at an intersection, ordered breakfast, and ate while reading.

The most feared America is the IRS, but the most omnipresent and ruthless in exposing the truth are journalists. For example, if a celebrity stays out all night, who they were with that night, how many umbrellas they used, the next day's newspapers can write it all down clearly, even down to the second the duration of each incident.

In contrast, the FBI is incompetent; they only issue a warning in bright red lettering before the movie starts!

It's nothing serious; I've never heard of anyone turning off their media player because of a warning!

Russell flipped through the newspapers, especially the local ones, and soon found news about the cemetery and warehouse.

Both the giant dragon and the sword shadows were too conspicuous, and coupled with the continuous explosions, the police couldn't hide it no matter what they wanted. In fact, by the time the police arrived at the scene, they were already a step too late. Reporters from more than a dozen newspapers were watching and taking pictures, and a television station had even deployed a helicopter to interview eyewitnesses.

Sword Shadow is not popular in the America people do not understand it, but Fire Dragon caused a sensation!

An eyewitness captured the precious scene with his mobile phone while driving past the cemetery. Due to the low resolution and distance, the image quality was not very clear, but the ferocity and brutality of the fire dragon were still clearly visible through the screen.

Dragons are synonymous with power and evil in the West, an indispensable part of the mythological system, and sightings are frequent, but there has never been conclusive evidence to prove the existence of such creatures. Finally, someone produced a video, which was confirmed not to be fake, and traces of damage left by a dragon were found in the cemetery, immediately pushing the America people to a fever pitch.

Myths are true, dragons exist, then Wizard, magic, giants, devils, and God must also exist!

As the incident unfolded, the America national machinery also sprang into action...

The fire dragon is dead, America government could search the land but it would never be found. However, the subsequent impact of the incident will definitely affect the Reincarnator, making the Team Battle even more difficult.

Russell was alone and a small target, so the increased difficulty of the Reincarnator's Team Battle was a good thing for him. With a "let's watch the show" attitude, he continued to read the news and found a piece of information worth paying attention to in the gossip section.

A gang shootout broke out on the street yesterday. When the police arrived, both sides had already fled. The scene was a mess, riddled with bullet holes, and contained seven or eight bodies.

The search did not end in vain. After a patient search, the police found a suspect in the alley, an Asian man covered in blood!

The suspect reportedly refused to surrender when faced with gunfire, choosing to fight back and sustaining nine gunshot wounds before collapsing. That's not the key point; the crucial point is that he's still alive and is being held in isolation at a city center hospital by police.

"Poor guy, he actually got caught alive by the police. You're definitely the most miserable Reincarnator." Russell silently noted down the hospital's name. If he could see the news, other Reincarnator would naturally see it too. This hospital was about to get interesting.

Russell decided to join the fun; there was nothing else of interest in the newspapers, so the only place to boost his online presence was here...

Waaaaah————

The urgent, continuous siren blared from outside the window, and a black minivan sped by. Immediately afterwards, four police cars appeared at the street corner.

As the van drew closer, its front wheel suddenly exploded, and before it could turn around, it crashed violently into the coffee shop's entrance.

Splash!

Bang!

Amid screams, the van crashed through the dining table and chairs, slamming straight into the bar. The speeding car came to an abrupt stop, and a burly man flew out of the passenger seat, slamming heavily into the liquor cabinet.

The car door opened, and four thug-like men rushed to the bar. "Captain, are you alright?"

The burly man, soaked in alcohol, ripped the glass shards off his face, slapped one of the men to the ground, and cursed, "Hey, you bastard, how the hell did you drive? You always brag about how Old Driver never crash, well, the car didn't crash, but I flew right off the wheel."

The second brother, who had been knocked to the ground, seemed a bit dim-witted. He stubbornly insisted, "Captain, my driving skills are fine, it's the tires that had no grip. We were tricked by that black guy. Also, I told you to fasten your seatbelt, and you didn't listen..."

"You dare to talk back? I'll slap you across the face until you're dead!"

"Captain, stop messing around! The police are blocking the way outside, what should we do?"

"Third brother, go find the back door, steal a car, and the rest of you come with me to block the police."

The five men had a clear division of labor: one man searched for an escape route, while the remaining four herded the people in the coffee shop into a corner to take them hostage and confront the police outside.

Russell stayed quietly in the crowd, initially judging that these five people should be Reincarnator, not because of their fluent Mandarin, nor because they magically produced AK rifles, but because the system gave him a hint.

[Ding! Host has come into contact with the story character Hao Xun, triggering Lottery Draw. Do you wish to draw now?]

The burly captain's name was Hao Xun, and as his name suggested, his dark and ugly face was indeed quite unattractive.

Outside the coffee shop, police formed a defensive line with patrol cars, evacuated the crowd, and contacted their superiors for backup. Inside the coffee shop, the hostages were either sobbing quietly or trying to pay to stay alive. They were very familiar with their police's tactics; after a fierce battle, the fate of the ruthless criminals was uncertain, but they were definitely doomed.

"Damn it, why isn't the third brother back yet?" Captain Hao Xun was getting impatient as time dragged on.

At that moment, the back door of the coffee shop was pushed open, and Hao Xun turned his head, only to have a flash of silver light brush against his neck.

Blood splattered as he fell backward to the ground. The sound of him falling woke the other three, who turned around and saw Jason wearing Hockey Mask.

The atmosphere froze instantly. The three were stunned by the familiar appearance and stood there dumbfounded. Before they could even fire a shot, Jason swiftly cleaved them all in half at the waist.

Screams erupted in the coffee shop as the hostages scrambled to escape, and Russell ran away with the crowd. Just as he ordered Jason to disappear, the dead Hao Xun suddenly rose from the ground, grabbed an AK, and began firing wildly at Jason.

Upon hearing the gunshots, the police officers lowered their heads, dared not show themselves, rushed to the coffee shop entrance, then retreated, continuing to call for backup.

"Resurrected!? The Reincarnator have quite a few tricks up their sleeves. Even a brainless brute like him can be a formidable opponent." Russell stood at a distance, leaning against the wall, letting Jason quickly finish the fight.

However, this time Jason met his match.

After Hao Xun finished firing his AK, he spat fiercely at Jason's mangled ear corpse, then turned and ran away.

After Jason finished repairing his body, he got up and chased after Hao Xun, his Blade slamming heavily into Hao Xun's shoulder. Blood splattered, and with a crisp clang, the blade cracked, splitting Jason's hand and Great Cleaver causing him to drop the cleaver.

Hao Xun cried out in pain, clutching his shoulder. The pain fueled his ferocity, and his eyes turned bloodshot as he glared at Jason, charging towards him. Six sharp claws extended from his fists, three piercing Jason's chest and three sinking into his eye sockets, shoving him against the wall.

Reincarnator whose abilities have been enhanced by Wolverine!

Meanwhile, the police heard Ak's gunfire stop, tentatively fired a few shots into the coffee shop, and then broke down the door. Finding Hao Xun and Jason at the back door, they opened fire without hesitation.

Are there hostages?

No, I didn't see it!

Thud! Thud! Thud—

Hao Xun was shot in the back, cried out in pain, and abandoned Jason, running towards the alley entrance.

Jason recovered and wanted to get up and chase after them again, but Russell ordered him to lie on the ground Feigning Death. Only after the police had all chased after them did he stand up and activate his stealth ability.

With his stealth ability, Jason won't lose track of a target once he's identified one. During a chase, he minimizes his presence, so even passersby will subconsciously ignore his existence, let alone the target.
