After that revenge, time slipped away like the sands of an hourglass, and three full days had already passed. This bustling and bustling city was still immersed in its former bustle and bustle, but the evil hidden beneath the surface of peace gradually surfaced.

Finally, during a routine patrol, the city's security personnel stumbled upon something unusual. Following the faint scent of blood in the air, they eventually arrived at the warehouse. The sight before them made everyone gasp—blood splattered across the ground, bodies scattered everywhere. The scene was horrific beyond imagination.

And after that, the dead bodies in the mental hospital were also discovered.

Due to the high death toll and the extremely brutal and brutal methods used, this series of murders attracted considerable attention. The warehouse, in particular, became the focal point of the entire case. After a preliminary investigation, police were surprised to discover that one of the victims in the warehouse had been frightened to death! This horrific death was chilling.

Meanwhile, a solemn atmosphere pervaded the administrative building in the city center. In a spacious, brightly lit office, a short, stout, middle-aged man stood respectfully, reporting on the progress of a case in detail to another middle-aged man, who lay in a recliner with his back to him.

"...According to our current investigation, we've discovered that among the patients missing from Qingying Mental Hospital, one named Lin Nuo stands out as particularly suspicious. It's understood that he was once employed by one of the victims of the warehouse massacre."

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man, who had been lying quietly, stirred slightly but remained silent. The short, stout man continued, "Not only that, we've also discovered that Lin Nuo's adoptive parents reported him to the police for theft and ultimately committed him to Qingying Mental Hospital. However, to everyone's surprise, nearly every staff member at this mental hospital, including the director, suffered brutal retaliation."

At this point, the short, fat middle-aged man's voice trembled, clearly terrified by the scene he was describing. After a brief pause, he cautiously glanced up at the middle-aged man, who hadn't turned around yet, and tentatively asked, "To sum up, we believe that Lin Nuo is a strong suspect..."

At this moment, the middle-aged man who had been silent all this time suddenly turned his recliner around, stared at the short and fat middle-aged man expressionlessly, and said coldly, "Director Qiao, is this all you have found out?"

Upon hearing this, the short and fat middle-aged man called Director Qiao immediately broke out in a cold sweat. He said tremblingly: "Mayor, based on the current evidence, Lin Nuo is the biggest suspect. And there is also proof from Lin Nuo's adoptive parents that it was Lin Nuo who made them disabled..."

"Haha, a young boy can make people like this?"

The short, fat middle-aged man, also known as the mayor, interrupted the other person rudely. At the same time, he threw a stack of photos onto the table. The photos scattered, revealing a horrifying scene—people with bodies twisted and deformed like spheres!

"How could such a thing be achieved with human power? This is simply beyond imagination. Moreover, according to the clues we have at present, not long after the warehouse murder occurred, Lin Nuo showed up at his adoptive parents' home and tortured them to disability. Even if Lin Nuo had wings and could fly, it would be impossible for him to rush from the crime scene to his adoptive parents' home in just a few minutes." The middle-aged man spoke, tapping his fingers on the table.

"Therefore, the person who committed this crime is definitely not a single individual, but a group of people. Moreover, I dare to assert that this group of people must have a very powerful background and are probably backed by an extremely powerful force."

Then, he raised his hand again, banged the table a few times, and asked, "So, Director Qiao, what is the origin of this Qingying Mental Hospital?"

A brief silence fell in the room. After a moment, Director Qiao responded, "Based on what we've learned, it's highly likely a major corporation is secretly manipulating this operation. Reliable sources report that many people in this mental hospital have been detained under various pretexts, and patients frequently disappear inexplicably."

"In my opinion, these missing patients were most likely secretly transferred out to serve as consumables for human experiments or as a source of spare organs."

"Among the oligarchs in the Federation, the one involved in the pharmaceutical industry is Qinglan Pharmaceutical, right?"

"Yes."

"Take this opportunity to feel upwards and see if you can get some leverage. If you can do it well, you and I can climb up and leave this damn place."

"This is a rare opportunity. If you don't want to rot in this sinful city for the rest of your life, find some capable people to handle it for me!"

"Yes! I will—"

Before the short and fat middle-aged man could finish his words, time stopped as if the pause button had been pressed.

"Mortals are truly ignorant and fearless!"

With a sneer, a young man in a black suit, a top hat and monocular glasses suddenly appeared in the office.

I saw that he was holding a golden pocket watch, but the needle on it was not moving.

After this young man appeared, the photo on the desk suddenly flew to his side.

The young man looked at the photo and said, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, killing is beyond measure. Crushing a living person into a meatball is a cruel thing."

"But ultimately, they're just mortals. No matter how many of them die, it has nothing to do with me. But I'm sure his abilities have great potential. If he's properly trained, he'll be a capable general in the future."

As he spoke, the young man suddenly stretched out his left hand, and the next moment, golden butterflies suddenly flew out from his left hand. "My dears, go find him and bring him to me."

.....................

At the same time, on the other side, in a huge warehouse, Wang Bai was instructing Lin Nuo on how to strengthen the true immortal essence in his body.

After Lin Nuo completed his revenge, he released other people who were imprisoned in the mental hospital for various reasons like him.

Afterwards, Wang Bo built a large place to guide him in tapping into the power and memories within his bloodline. With Wang Bo's help, within three months at most, Lin Nuo would be able to gain all of Wu Quan's power and figure out what had happened to Wu Quan and the others.

.................................

"It seems that someone who possesses extraordinary power in this world has taken action." Wang Bai looked at the motionless scene around him and thought to himself.

"Time stop? It looks like it can affect the entire world, which is pretty good. But it's useless to me."
