The guards at the gate were startled and quickly ran into the house. When they saw what was happening, they were all shocked and were about to shout when...

Lin Muchen opened his mouth wide and spat out a mouthful of viscous liquid.

When everyone saw the gaping mouth, they realized it was no longer human-like and that this person was definitely not normal. While they were still in shock, the slime flew towards them, and before they could react, they were stuck to the wall.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Muchen stepped forward and knocked them all unconscious with a single punch each!

Then Lin Muchen ran quickly away, trying to escape before alerting more people. Soon, Lin Muchen disappeared into the night.

Before long, the alarm sounded, alarming many people that night, including Emperor Mysterion.

After hearing his assistant Liu Yunzhe's report, he was furious. He was very upset that Lin Muchen had escaped despite such tight security, but there was nothing he could do but ask his assistant to send people to keep a close eye on Lin Muchen's movements.

Misterian couldn't sleep that night either. He paced around the room, feeling that something was wrong, as if he had overlooked something.

Then he suddenly realized that he hadn't seen the actual situation in the surveillance video yet, so he quickly pressed the button on his personal terminal and called his assistant Liu Yunzhe over.

"Yun Zhe, could you please go and check the surveillance footage from the room where Lin Muchen is being held? I want to see how he escaped."

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Actually, it's fine to look into it tomorrow, but he can't sleep right now, and this matter is giving him a real headache!

He had a feeling that there was something else going on that hadn't been discovered yet, and he had to find out as soon as possible, or something serious might happen later.

Twenty minutes later, Liu Yunzhe returned.

"Your Highness, I've retrieved it. Would you like to see it now?"

Misterian nodded. "Release it. I'll see it now."

Mister Ryan sat down opposite the video feed and waited for Liu Yunzhe to play the surveillance video he had retrieved.

Liu Yunzhe saw that Mister Ryan was already sitting in his seat waiting for him, so he quickly raised his hand, pointed his personal computer at the projection screen, and pressed the switch. The video started playing shortly afterward.

When Mister Ryan saw Lin Muchen, he was sitting there perfectly fine at first, but when he saw Lin Muchen stand up and remove the door, he realized something was wrong.

He said to Liu Yunzhe, "Play that scene again!"

Although Liu Yunzhe was curious about Mister Ryan and noticed something amiss, he could only hold back for now. He stepped forward and replayed the scene of Lin Muchen removing the door.

This time he played it in slow motion, and heard Misterian say, "Stop, this is it."

The two unconsciously leaned forward, observed carefully, and finally noticed that something was wrong with the scene.

When they saw Lin Muchen forcefully shoveling the door open, and his eyes turned red, they were startled. This was definitely not normal for Lin Muchen; they had never heard of Lin Muchen having any strength-based superpowers before.

Even if he himself hid this superpower, no other superpowered person would have their eyes turn red when exerting force like he did.

Then, they continued to look behind them, and when they saw the guards rushing towards him, Lin Muchen's mouth gaped open in astonishment.

Liu Yunzhe stammered, "This, this, Your Highness! He..."

Mister Ryan didn't wait. After Liu Yunzhe finished stammering out his complete sentence, he added, "I think Lin Muchen is not human, but we don't know what species he is."

The two then watched as Lin Muchen spat out clumps of viscous liquid from his wide-open mouth, sticking the rushing guards to the wall one by one. He then quickly rushed over and knocked them unconscious with a single punch.

Finally, there was Lin Muchen rushing out of the house, his figure disappearing into the night.

After watching the video, the two fell silent. Misterian broke the silence first, "Yun Zhe, this matter must not be publicized. We must investigate it secretly."

Liu Yunzhe quickly replied, "Yes, Your Highness! But where should we begin our investigation?"

Mister Ryan pondered for a moment, "Let's start with the people around Lin Muchen and see if we can find any clues."

"Yes, Your Highness! It's very late now, you should get some rest!"

Misterian glanced at the time on his personal terminal; it was indeed getting late. He nodded and said, "Okay, you should go and rest too. We'll talk again when it's light!"

"Yes!"
