Death filled up Shen Luo’s brain. He recovered only after a long time. But when he climbed up from the ground, other than Crow and Guinea Pig, all the other members took a step back. “Welcome to the club.” Crow’s hand hung in mid-air. He kept his eyes on Shen Luo. Facing such a devious monster, even the core members didn’t dare to put their guard down. Shen Luo didn’t shake hands with Crow as if the core members were still not on the same level to speak to him.

His red eyes swept through all the members. Shen Luo wiped away the blood tears from his face. He desperately wanted to ask for help, but a voice in his head stopped him. Shen Luo was no longer affected by the butterfly pattern. Instead, his brain was dominated by monsters. The souls of the thirty consciousness made his brain their home. Shen Luo didn’t need to worry about hallucinations anymore. Mad Laughter used only one minute to fix everything.

“He…” Shen Luo’s face was ghastly. Veins popped on his forehead. He wanted to call for help, but everything became a mad cackle. Everyone thought Shen Luo was crazy. None dared to say that this was how Shen Luo really was.

“All the info on him is here. He’s unique.” A woman with a raccoon mask handed a document to Guinea Pig. After he read through it, he carried a black box to Shen Luo.

“God is waiting for you. Tonight, you’ll be one of the main characters.” Guinea Pig stepped on the broken glass and held the box with both hands. Crow seemed to know what Guinea Pig was planning to do. He was very cooperative as he helped Guinea Pig open the black box. A strange fragrance came out of the box. There was a butterfly mask inside the box. Compared to the other masks, this mask was light, colorful, and pretty. Its material was unique too.

“Shen Luo, this mask has been waiting for you.” Shen Luo remembered asking in the car why he didn’t have a mask. Now he got his mask. Shen Luo reached out his hands. He was like a boat caught in a thunderstorm. He could capsize at any moment. Crow and Guinea Pig clearly didn’t understand Shen Luo. From their perspective, the murderous aura on Shen Luo kept growing. The death in the mirror was absorbed by this one person. This supercriminal might kill them for fun. The two core members handed the box to Shen Luo. When Shen Luo put on the butterfly mask, the butterfly tattoo on his body was triggered. The mask appeared to fuse to his face. Shen Luo sensed a special presence from the mask. It was fear that was unique to the cryptic world. Mad laughter came from underneath the mask. Everyone could hear the joy in it.

“Others will go crazy when they put on this mask. He still retains his rationality. All these prove that he is Butterfly’s inheritor.” Crow closed the black box. “Xin Lu’s guard dogs might be coming soon. We need to move him to the intelligent city. God will be pleased to see him.”

“Are we sure?” Guinea Pig had no reason to reject. Everything they did was for God’s plan. “Then, I’ll go to contact that person now.” Bald Eagle heard the conversation between Guinea Pig and Crow. He was shocked. God he had not seen was already in the intelligence city!

The city was controlled by a supercomputer. He had no idea how God managed to slip into it. Guinea Pig picked out a strange communicator. After he keyed in a series of codes, the communicator’s green light lit up.

“Little Ghost already knows. We need to move now!” Guinea Pig put the communicator away. The hand behind his back bent, and he moved towards Shen Luo. He raised his arm. There was a mini syringe hidden in Guinea Pig’s finger. It was filled with some kind of drugs. Guinea Pig moved very fast, but Shen Luo appeared to have anticipated this. The laughing mouth bit at Guinea Pig’s face. This sudden reaction shocked both Guinea Pig and Shen Luo.

“I’m sorry. I just want you to calm down.” Guinea Pig twitched his fingers, and the syringe had been swapped. “This is just a normal tranquilizer.” To prove that he wasn’t lying, he injected the tranquilizer into his body. He had to be very careful around supercriminals. One careless move and they would be dead. He knew that very well.

“The ride is here. We need to prepare to leave.” Crow waved. The elevator doors opened. They took the elevators back to the surface. The four modified cars moved in four different directions. Shen Luo and Guinea Pig took the car heading to the northern countryside. Everyone was nervous. When they arrived, Shen Luo realized he had been sent to the pharmaceutical factory Immortal Pharma built there.

‘These people are all from Immortal Pharma?’ They exited the car and crawled into a low-temperature container box used to store medicine. “We’ll arrive in the intelligent city in three hours. Hold on in the meantime.”

Guinea Pig closed the door. Then, Shen Luo felt like the container started to move. They had been affixed to a vehicle. Humans were stored with medicines. The temperature dropped. Shen Luo’s brain slowly woke up. He was sure that something had crawled into his mind, but he had no evidence. ‘The laughter sounds just like Han Fei. The biggest mistake of my life is getting to know him.’ Other than unlucky, Shen Luo had no other weakness. As the ‘top’ economic analyzer in Xin Lu, his IQ was high too. After combining things that had happened, he came to a conclusion. Han Fei had two personas, one good and the other evil. The normal Han Fei had been saving him, but the evil Han Fei had been using him. Evil Han Fei wanted to summon all the dead children, but normal Han Fei couldn’t sustain it, so he chose Shen Luo to be the vessel.

‘What can I do? This is despairing.’ Two hours later, the car stopped. Shen Luo heard the door open. He looked over, and it was complete darkness outside the container. “Walk forward. Open the red door.” A robotic voice rang beside Shen Luo. He moved his body. “This is so dark. I can’t even see.” Shen Luo walked for a long time before there was a ray of light. He moved quicker, but when he approached, he felt uncomfortable. The light was emitted from the eyeball of an abandoned intelligent robot. Behind the robot was a mountain of failed half-bionic, half-robotic products. It was a dead mountain.

“You still have five minutes. Four minutes and five nine seconds later, this whole mountain will be demolished.” The robotic voice said again. Shen Luo dug out the eyeball and climbed up the mountain. Not far away, there were three doors. A grey metallic door with a sign that forbade entry because experiments were ongoing; a pure white door that only allowed entry to those with worker’s pass; there was a red door, and the sign was clear. This was a passage used to destroy dangerous failed products.

Time was ticking. Shen Luo had no choice but to open the red door.

“Now you need to do three things. Find the black box at the door, change into the clothes inside, enter the third passage on the left, and then throw the box into the incinerator.”

Shen Luo lowered his head. There was indeed a black box by the door. Shen Luo reached for it and was electrocuted. He collapsed and then felt his body being moved. When he opened his eyes again, his clothes had been changed and his body cleaned.

“Where am I?” He crawled up blurrily. There were doodles on the walls and oil-painted windows. He had no impression of this place. “Am I at a kindergarten?”

Shen Luo didn’t dare to touch anything in the room. He walked to the door. He turned the doorknob, and the door opened. There was a corridor outside the door. There were signs everywhere that said things like building a warm home, spreading love and sunshine, and so on… The signs were fine but the red letterings of the signs smelled like they had been written in blood. “Am I hallucinating again?”

Shen Luo’s heart pumped as he walked down the corridor. He had no idea whether it was a problem with his brain or something was just not right with this place. The orphanage had many hidden bloodstains, like some massacre had happened here not too long ago.

“Is anyone there?” Shen Luo shouted, “I’m Butterfly! Please answer!”

The only reply was Shen Luo’s echo. It was like he was alone in the building.

…

The heavy metal door closed. Guinea Pig stood at the door with his head lowered. His gaze was fixed on his shoes, afraid that he would see things he shouldn’t. There was a man standing before Guinea Pig. He wore a ghost mask and Immortal Pharma’s uniform.

“The target has entered Immortal Pharma’s sealed-up lab room. The deepest despair will be slowly awakened. I’m surprised the person I’m looking for will appear like this.”

“Little Ghost, I’ve sent Butterfly to you. I’ll leave you to handle the rest.” Guinea Pig didn’t even dare to lift his head. He could feel the hatred and anger in the man’s heart. The negative emotion was strong enough to swallow everything.

“The thing my father wanted to do the most is to kill Butterfly, and you dare to send it to me?” The robotic voice said and caused Guinea Pig to shiver.

“He’s God’s flower.” Guinea Pig held the syringe in his hand and tried to remain calm.

Ghost walked behind Guinea Pig. “He’s God to you, but to me, he’s just a child.”

Guinea Pig didn’t dare to speak anymore. In the three organizations, only Butterfly and Little Ghost dared to speak of God like this.

“I will make this twinflower bloom again. The bloodred night will reappear in the intelligent city.” Ghost walked out. Everything about him was a mystery. “The bloodred night is imminent. Come. We’ll go welcome God together.”
