Taiping Prefecture, Galaxy Tower.

Moon God reluctantly bid farewell to Miss Hell, returned to her apartment, and then uploaded a photo of herself and Miss Hell snuggling together in a wicker chair.

In the photo, since it was the Moon God Goddess who suggested taking a picture, Miss Hell slightly raised her head and looked at the camera with a puzzled expression.

"!?! Mengmeng?!"

"So cute... looking at the camera with a blank expression."

"What do you mean I was just arguing with Hell fans for ages, and you're off having a nice vacation with Miss Hell?"

"Hmph, this debate doesn't diminish my love for Miss Hell in the slightest!"

Miss Hell glanced at the Moon God's comment section, shook her head helplessly, put down her phone, left the apartment, and went home.

The girl deactivated her transformation behind the curtain.

Upon entering the house, since it was still early, not yet noon, Bai Xiaoxiao and Mo Xiaochuan were playing a two-player puzzle game.

"Seriously? Why don't you just jump over that?"

"How dare you say that to me? You died several times just now, and I was the only one who didn't fail!"

The two of them clearly disliked each other.

Upon seeing Mo Zhen return home, Bai Xiaoxiao tossed the controller aside and handed it to Mo Zhen: "Brother! You handle this one!"

"Stuck on a level?"

Mo Zhen sat down in front of the television and began controlling the character in the game to solve the puzzle.

During this time, Bai Xiaoxiao squeezed behind him, watching her brother's long, slender, and fair fingers easily skip over the parkour obstacle that she had been struggling with. The white-haired kitten looked at its own fingers in frustration. Could there be some difference between their hands?

Suddenly, a strange expression appeared in Bai Xiaoxiao's eyes. She lowered her head and, like a kitten, carefully sniffed Mo Zhen's neck.

"Wrong...!"

Alarm bells rang in the girl's heart.

How could my brother have such a gentle perfume scent, and it wasn't just a lingering fragrance, but rather something that only became apparent upon close contact?

The kind that's left behind?!

In other words... my brother had close contact with other women outside? Even if it wasn't hugging or kissing, it was still at the level of a date!

Bai Xiaoxiao suddenly panicked, wishing she could bite Mo Zhen's neck right now like a vampire and taste it.

Mo Zhen, who was deciphering the code, suddenly felt a chill on her neck.

At the same time.

In a sewer in Taiping Prefecture, a severed finger, discarded in a garbage heap, suddenly trembled slightly and began to frantically grow flesh and blood.

In less than a few minutes.

The Joker Man has regained his freedom.

The body he was imprisoned in by Red Owl died there due to a sudden heart attack.

"Shit, that damn Red Owl, why is the security at the prison so tight? I'm speechless. You can't get out without committing suicide."

The Joker Man, cursing and swearing, walked his bird to his sewer hideout, grabbed a wrinkled suit, and put it on.

Superior.

His ability is very special; he can be reborn or transferred according to the Joker Man's own will.

However, the losses and time involved can fluctuate.

For example, he transferred from a complete body to a severed finger, and then restored the severed finger back to a complete body.

This process will consume a lot of time and energy.

The Joker Man calls this ability: Never-Ending Entropy Increase.

In his sewer hideout, he pulled out a vinyl record and played the classic "Billie, Jean – Michael Jackson".

Boom! Boom!

"Overcome with emotion, the Joker Man couldn't help but let out a howl. Anyway, no one in the sewers could hear him, so it wasn't considered disturbing the peace."

He followed the rhythm of the music, shuffling his body to the mirror, wiping away the dust, revealing a handsome face.

Only the corners of his mouth were torn open, making him look gruesome and terrifying.

The Joker Man took out various foundations and lipsticks and started applying and patting them onto his face.

Soon, he reverted to his crazy, clown-like self.

He nodded in satisfaction.

Then the Joker Man took a chilled pizza out of the refrigerator and stuffed it into his mouth, not caring whether it had gone bad, while taking out his phone to make a call back.

"He's alive?"

The voice of Commander Kong middleman in the underworld, came through the phone. "Take this job? Someone's paying you to assassinate a senior executive at Colossus Company."

The Joker Man licked his fingers and sat up from the sofa. "Colossus Company? Playing this big? Great, great, I'll take the job."

"What time? Who is the target?"

"You must complete this week. Your target is the superhero agent named Tang Wenjie, and you'll be working with the supervillain codenamed 'Lumberjack.'"

The Joker Man smiled slightly, "OK, I'll take the job."

The more difficult the task, the more he liked it.

As the Joker Man took out his phone, he preemptively sold all of Colossus Interactive Entertainment's shares at their peak, knowing that the stock would definitely experience a sharp drop after the assassination.

With insider information, selling at the high and buying at the low makes it hard not to make money.

The Joker Man chuckled sinisterly, "Hehehe, sorry Miss Hell, you'll have to find a new manager."

While grinning foolishly, the Joker Man opened Moon Studios ' social media and began catching up on Miss Hell's recent videos.

"Holy crap, Little Devil Hell?!"

"Collaboration Set?"

"Oh, I've bought it! Perfect timing, I'll need this lipstick."

The Joker Man happily placed an order for the Miss Hell collaboration lipstick, and judging by his lipstick consumption, he seems to have become the biggest beneficiary of the collaboration.

So the Joker Man bought ten sets and immediately posted pictures of them on the Madhouse.

Joker Man: "You bunch of bumpkins! Have you even bought the Hell Lord collaboration outfit? If you haven't bought the Lord Hell collaboration outfit, get out of here! You're not worthy of my attention!"

Fans immediately started flooding the screen with comments:

"I have no objection, Lord Hell is the cutest person in the world!"

"What Joker Man?"

"Wasn't the Joker Man from the construction team captured by Red Owl? Looks like Uncle Red Owl's stun gun wasn't powerful enough."

"If it were me, I'd just use the Joker Man's brain to make a brain soup to go with my drinks. Anyway, no matter what I do, this guy always manages to escape."

"Red Owl, I know the Joker Man has a hideout in the sewers, the opera house, and the clock tower. I suggest you check them out."

This user has been blocked.

The Joker Man cursed, "A bunch of little black wretches! Can't take a joke, huh? Giving Red Owl pinpoint positions!"

As he said this, his body betrayed him; he quickly got up, packed his belongings, and ran away. He couldn't stay in this sewer hideout any longer!

Throughout the journey, the Joker Man kept praising Miss Hell's great achievements, saying that she truly deserved to be the magical girl he had his eye on, she was indeed amazing!

Early morning of that day, Taiping Prefecture Military Prison:

The piercing alarm blared throughout.

The Joker Man sat on the prison guard's corpse, slowly lit an imported Zhonghua cigarette, and smoked it all in one go before exhaling a long puff of smoke.

"Phew, that's great! Ah, although it's not as strong as Western tobacco leaves, the imported cigarettes from Dongda University just taste different."

"Boom!"

With a loud explosion, the prison gate behind him was blown open.

"You...!"

The seriously injured prison guard beneath him tried to speak, but the Joker Man quickly hissed, "Shh, shh, shh, can't you just pretend to be dead? You'd survive if you pretended to be dead, wouldn't you? How much do you earn a month? Why are you risking your life like this?"

With that, the Joker Man shook his head regretfully, grabbed the other man's head, and slammed it against the ground again, finally killing him completely. Or perhaps he was just unconscious?

Ignoring all that, the Joker Man stood up abruptly, looked at the two people who had been released from prison, and raised his hand to applaud.

"Welcome, both of you. Welcome to my 'Madhouse Squad'."

The criminals they released were none other than the previously captured Jumbo and the Demon Wolf.

Beside the gate, a man with a full beard and carrying two axes cracked his neck and looked at the Joker Man: "Your squad—?! I killed the prison guards, I blew up the gate, what are you pretending for now?"

The Joker Man chuckled, pointing to his head. "Everyone has their specialty, Mr. Lumberjack. I rely on my brain and command skills."

The man codenamed Lumberjack rolled his eyes. "Come on, hurry up and get out of here, or I won't save you when the superheroes' reinforcements arrive."

Soon, the group hijacked a military prison vehicle and shook off the pursuing soldiers and several low-level superheroes.

We arrived at an abandoned dam.

This place was temporarily converted into their base by the Joker Man.

Upon entering the stronghold, the starving Demon Wolf and the Jumbo immediately grabbed the pizza and bread prepared by the Joker Man and devoured them.

The Joker Man sat on the sofa, looking at their state, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, "Poor guys, they must have gotten plenty of electric shocks in prison, right?"

Upon hearing this, the Demon Wolf's eyes immediately filled with murderous intent. "After this job, I'm going to wipe out those guys' entire families!"

There were four people in the hideout at this time: the Joker Man, the Lumberjack, the Demon Wolf, and the Jumbo.

This makeshift team they formed was significantly better than the previous one, thanks to the military scientists.

[Demon Wolf: Previously at the Reynolds Group, he easily overpowered Scarlet Spider, a half-human, half-wolf superhuman.]

It's been a week since we last saw each other.

His danger level has actually been raised to B.

After being questioned by the Joker Man, everyone learned that the military had secretly conducted Subspace radiation experiments using the Demon Wolf and the Jumbo.

As a result, this Subspace radiation experiment not only failed to kill the Demon Wolf, but also granted him complete werewolf abilities, at the cost of losing his sanity during the transformation.

The same is true of the Jumbo; when enraged, its body can become even larger, like a heavy tank.

The Joker Man then pulled over a blackboard and explained their plan, "Listen carefully, our mission is to kill Tang Wenjie, a high-ranking executive at Colossus Company. This guy is no ordinary person; as you all know, he's currently the most famous superhero agent."

The Demon Wolf and the Jumbo exchanged a glance, clearly not recognizing Tang Wenjie.

The Joker Man didn't care whether they knew each other or not, and directly assigned them a task. "Assassinating Tang Wenjie is not an easy task. Colossus Company's security is extremely tight, and he and his family live in an apartment building under Colossus."

"Furthermore, there are many superheroes under the command of the Colossus within the building, each one of whom is formidable."

"So, Demon Wolf, Jumbo, I need you to use your abilities to create chaos on the streets and attract the attention of those superheroes."

"Of course, it's not just you. I've actually hired a lot of criminals, big and small, on the black market. They'll create a riot together this afternoon."

Joker Man spoke, he took out a stack of anonymous bank cards containing $100,000 and distributed them to Demon Wolf and Jumbo; these were common "salary cards" among criminals.

"Now, you're free to do as you please. Once you've finished your work, the remaining balance will be automatically deposited into your account."

"That's what the Joker Man announced."

The Demon Wolf and the Jumbo were already impatient; the thing they wanted to do most after being released from prison was to take revenge on the superheroes who had captured them.

This coincides perfectly with the Joker Man's mission.

Unlike the Demon Wolf and his gang, the Lumberjack stayed at the hideout. He sat on a single sofa with his feet propped up on the coffee table and asked the Joker Man, "So, what's next? What do we do?"

The Joker Man grinned and pulled out a bottle of tequila. "It's simple. Tomorrow, find some time to go and kidnap Tang Wenjie's daughter."

"As long as we have his daughter under our control, we're not afraid he won't show up."

The biggest obstacle to their mission is the superheroes active in the Whale Sea and Jinniu Districts, and the large group of criminals hired by Joker Man will keep those superheroes busy to the greatest extent possible.

That will be the best time for them to make their move.

The Lumberjack laughed, picked up his rum, and took a big gulp. "Looks like you're not entirely useless after all, Joker Man."

The Joker Man rolled his eyes and sat down on the sofa. "What do you think I became a criminal godfather by? Just like you guys who only know how to fight and kill?"

"Completely wrong. In Taiping Prefecture, I relied on my intelligence and social skills."

All supervillains know that Joker Man has the widest network of connections and relationships, and he always gets the most expensive jobs.

The Lumberjack lit a cigar and asked curiously, "So, who's the person who gave us the commission? Why would they suddenly want to kill a superhero agent?"

"Could it really be an internal power struggle among the Colossus?"

The Joker Man grinned. "You're wondering because we only received half the mission. The other half is most likely to be the assassination of the Magical Girl Hell."

"And this most difficult task has most likely been assigned by Commander Kong to that guy known as the Sorcerer Killer.'"

Upon hearing this, the Lumberjack scoffed dismissively, "Why didn't you just assign the task to me? What magical girl? The Ministry of Magic's ratings are always ridiculously low. She's just a sixteen-year-old brat. I can take her out with two swings of my axe."

The Joker Man smiled without saying a word.

The Lumberjack's arrogance was not unfounded, for he already had a notorious reputation in Taiping Prefecture.

But in the Joker Man's eyes, he wasn't qualified to kill Magical Girl Hell alone.

[Code name: "Lumberjack"]

[Danger Level: B+]

[Abilities: Savage Strength, Bronze Walls and Iron Ramparts.]

[Background: Formerly a Lumberjack in Siberia, he later enlisted in the army during the war, achieving victory in the Battle of Berlin and earning the nickname "Iron Chariot." He is one of the pinnacles of B+ class superhumans.]

[But after retiring, the Lumberjack became addicted to killing and was eventually sentenced to exile by the government. He later swam across the Pacific Ocean by himself and smuggled himself to Taiping Prefecture, where he became a legend among criminals.]

The following day was a Friday in Taiping Prefecture.

Mo Zhen, unusually, did not ask for leave again, and instead spent an ordinary day at school.

School ends early on Fridays, with the last class ending at 2:30 p. m., allowing students free time to participate in club activities and other events.

At that moment, Mo Zhen also received a message from Bai Xiaoxiao.

Bai Xiaoxiao: "Brother, our club is planning a haunted house adventure, are you interested in coming?"

Bai Xiaoxiao and Wuhua are members of the school's paranormal club, so they can always use this as an excuse to openly go to places where witches and familiars appear.

Mo Zhen thought about it and agreed.

He arrived at the agreed-upon coffee shop near the school, where Bai Xiaoxiao was already waving to him through the glass.

Mo Zhen ordered a matcha latte before sitting down next to them, and found Tang Xiaoyu among them.

Bai Xiaoxiao introduced, "Brother, this is Tang Xiaoyu, the girl who's with me. She came especially today to thank you."

The girl with short, dark blue hair was a little shy. Upon hearing this, she nervously looked up at Mo Zhen.

The boy was wearing a high school uniform, with a calm gaze and fair, delicate features that stood out even behind his black-rimmed glasses.

And those blue eyes, just as beautiful as the ones she saw yesterday.

Wow, so handsome...

Tang Xiaoyu, who is already somewhat socially awkward, became even more nervous and speechless when facing a handsome, aloof guy of this caliber.

With a blush, she managed to stammer, "Yesterday, thank you... Senior Mo Zhen."

"It's nothing, I just happened to be passing by."

Wuhua chuckled softly beside her, "Come to think of it, Mo Zhen has helped us twice already, including the last time on the tram."

Once Mo Zhen's latte was ready, the three of them got up and left the coffee shop.

Shortly after they got up, a man dressed in blue overalls, disguised as a construction electrician, also got up and followed them.

Soon, Mo Zhen and his companions arrived at an abandoned mansion overgrown with weeds in the suburbs. It seemed to be a building from the last century, with the entire house constructed of wood.

From the outside, the mansion was dilapidated, with weeds growing taller than a person.

"If the intelligence is correct, this should be the place where the witch's energy was detected. Let's go in."

"Wuhua said."

After Lin Xiaohong was promoted to head of Tianhe City, Wuhua was included in the candidate list for head of Jinghai District.

All that's missing is a signature from the president's office, and she'll be in charge.

Therefore, the current Magical Girl Squad of the Jinghai District can now be called the Wuhua Squad.

Although Wuhua's strength is only C10, she has only been a magical girl for less than two months.

The future is promising.

The group climbed over the fence and arrived at the mansion's half-open gate. They pushed open the creaking gate and went inside.

As soon as they stepped into the mansion, Mo Zhen felt a chilly wind blowing past, and the three girls instinctively shivered.

"It's so cold in here...!"

The girls, still wearing their school uniforms and skirts, all chose to transform, hoping to cover their entire bodies with magic.

Mo Zhen, caught between three glamorous magical girls, felt somewhat helpless. "I can't transform now because I'm isolated, right?"

If I really transform, I'll scare you to death.

Cough cough...

"This place doesn't seem to have witches; it's more like it contains traces of Subspace?"

He spoke somewhat uncertainly and walked forward.

Three girls followed behind him, looking around warily.

The group entered the living room and began exploring the possible remnants of the Subspace.

Suddenly, Mo Zhen heard a series of undisguised footsteps coming from the doorway, so she subconsciously looked towards the door.

"Whoosh!"

The axe tore through the air and flew head-on towards Mo Zhen, who was closest to the door.

Mo Zhen tilted his head slightly, easily dodging the opponent's axe, and asked with some surprise, "Human?"

"Of course it's a human!"

As they were talking, a tall, bearded man in a dark blue uniform walked in from around the corner of the entrance.

He seemed to have been drinking; his face was flushed, and his eyes revealed murderous intent as he scanned the three magical girls.

"Which of you is Tang Xiaoyu?"

Strange, Tang Xiaoyu could clearly recognize it just now. Is this the Cognitive Interference of a magical girl? How amazing...

"Whatever, it doesn't matter. As long as I take you all out, that's all that matters."

The Lumberjack sneered and pulled a second axe from behind his back.

"Danger level... B+?!"

Wuhua stood in front of the two little ones, feeling a little nervous.

Mo Zhen then raised his hand to take off his glasses, and walked unhurriedly to the three of them, blocking the Lumberjack's view.

The boy's gaze was cold.

"I'm a little curious, who sent you?"

The Lumberjack grinned. "None of your business, kid."

Without exchanging a single word of pleasantries, the two launched an immediate attack.

The Lumberjack trampled the wooden floorboards and swung his axe at them.

But in Mo Zhen's eyes, his movements were as slow as a snail.

Sizzle!

Amidst the deep blue lightning, Mo Zhen slightly turned her body, letting the Lumberjack's axe miss its mark, and then kicked him away.

Bang!!

The Lumberjack crashed through the mansion wall and tumbled into the overgrown backyard, clutching his axe tightly in his hand.

He patted his head in confusion. "A speedster...?!"

The Lumberjack immediately became angry.

"Damn speedster?!"

He despises speedsters, superhumans who can run even faster than Hakimi, and never dares to confront them head-on!

"You're quite sturdy."

At this moment, Mo Zhen walked step by step to the broken wall, tilted his head slightly, and looked at the Lumberjack in the weeds.

From that kick, Mo Zhen realized that the man's body was extremely stiff, almost like a solid lump of steel.

But perhaps this is... a good thing?

The black-haired, blue-eyed boy suddenly smiled and raised his hands, and deep blue lightning immediately shot out from his hands.

"How about we practice? I promise I won't use my hands in the chop, okay?"

Mo Zhen want to use Black Flash.

"Sukabul!"

Enraged by the slight, the Lumberjack picked up a second axe from the ground and charged at Mo Zhen once again.

Mo Zhen deliberately slowed down, maintaining a pace only slightly faster than the Lumberjacks.

To the Lumberjack, his level of contempt was nothing short of an old man toying with a child!

Bang!

Mo Zhen dodged the axe and landed a solid punch on the Lumberjack's chest, sending the man flying as if he'd been hit by a truck.

Then, back out.

His feet dug two deep furrows in the ground.

I'll kill you!

Ignoring everything, the Lumberjack, his eyes bloodshot, swung his axe again!

His physical defenses are indeed very impressive.

It can be said that if Mo Zhen does not transform, does not use the Malevolent Shrine, does not Domain Expansion, does not use the Speedster's Hand Chop, and only uses magic to enhance himself, it would be very difficult for Mo Zhen to break through the Lumberjack's defenses.

However... his Black Flash might make up for this.

As the battle between Mo Zhen and the Lumberjack intensified, the Lumberjack was surprised to find that the boy's smile became increasingly undisguised.

"Are you looking down on me? I won't allow it!" the Lumberjack shouted.

It was during the sixth round of their fight.

Mo Zhen felt that at this moment, his attack was perfectly coordinated with the magic power within his body.

"Black Flash!"

In that instant, jet-black lightning shot from his hand, distorting the surrounding space.

Mo Zhen aimed his punch at the Lumberjack's waist and abdomen, causing the latter's hair to stand on end as he sensed something was wrong.

"Black Flash: When the time error of a physical attack is within 0.000001 seconds, there is a chance that space will be locally distorted, and jet-black lightning will appear, hence the name " Black Flash ".

In the original work, the power of Black Flash was 2.5 times that of this attack, not 2.5 times.

In other words, if the power of Mo Zhen's punch is 100, then when he unleashes Black Flash, the power of his punch will be 100,000!

"Bang!!"

The Lumberjack had no time to react; he was blasted into the air by a single punch.

"Puff!!"

The man was struck dumb, his pupils trembled, and he spat out a mouthful of bright red blood in mid-air, the axe slipping from his hand.

Meanwhile, Mo Zhen's fist ignored all his defenses and blasted a hole the size of a bowl into his abdomen.

You. You--!

The Lumberjack opened his mouth, as if to speak, but only lowered his head and spat out mouthfuls of blood, staring incredulously at Mo Zhen before him.

Mo Zhen slowly withdrew her blood-soaked hand. "Ah... I'm sorry, I didn't control my strength well."

Although the black-haired, blue-eyed boy apologized verbally, the wicked smile on his lips proved that he felt no remorse whatsoever, but was genuinely mocking the other party.

"Pfft!" The Lumberjack spat out another mouthful of blood.

He staggered back a step, then collapsed to the ground, his eyes filled with resentment, his voice hoarse and gasping for breath. "Cough cough..."

Are you fucking human?

The Lumberjack's greatest asset was his flesh and bones, which were as hard as steel. But against the 2.5-power Black Flash, his defenses were as helpless as a naked little girl.

Mo Zhen, her face smeared with blood, smiled without changing her expression, "To be honest, you're weaker than I thought."

I'll probably forget about you when I wake up tomorrow.

Thump!

The Lumberjack's body lay on the ground.

Blood instantly stained the grass beneath him.

Inside the mansion, Wuhua and her two companions stood frozen in place, staring at the young man with blood on his hands and a carefree smile.

This was the first time Bai Xiaoxiao had ever seen her brother's smile so unrestrained.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm just in a really good mood right now."

Mo Zhen noticed that he was a bit out of sorts, so she smiled apologetically, gently clenched her fist, and shook off the blood.

He felt a real sense of exhilaration when he unleashed the Black Flash.

Every organ in his body, every breath he took, was perfectly coordinated with his attack.

How can this feeling be described? It's like a mathematical conjecture that has puzzled scientists for decades being proven by a sudden flash of inspiration.
