94: Chapter 94: Turns out it was a top assassin in disguise, what a clever move.

"Clang!"

A shrill metallic vibrato.

That was the wail of a rapier under immense force.

The black short sword, thin as a cicada's wing, was tightly gripped by Alice's two silver fingers.

Even though the Thousand-Faced Person desperately exerted her strength, the blade remained motionless, unable to shift even a fraction.

"Is that all the strength you have?"

Chen Yuan leaned against the doorframe.

He slowly exhaled a smoke ring, his eyes filled with disappointment.

"Fourth on the Dark Web, it sounds impressive. But this is it?"

"Who exactly are you!"

The Thousand-Faced Person's emerald eyes contracted violently, her heart rate instantly exceeding 150.

She felt that what she was holding wasn't a human hand.

It was some kind of hydraulic clamp.

It was a power that simply shouldn't exist in a carbon-based lifeform.

"You talk too much."

Alice's tone was icy.

She exerted force with her fingertips abruptly.

"Snap!"

That short sword, forged from a special alloy and touted as indestructible, was snapped like a biscuit.

The remaining tip of the blade spun in the air, reflecting the Thousand-Faced Person's terrified face.

"Damn it!"

The Thousand-Faced Person reacted extremely quickly.

Leveraging the force of the sword snapping, she flipped backward violently.

In mid-air, she raised her left hand.

A black sphere hit the ground.

"Bang!"

A dense purple smoke exploded instantly.

This wasn't an ordinary smoke bomb.

This was a high-concentration neurotoxin.

If an ordinary person inhaled just one breath, their lungs would instantly fail.

"Die!"

The Thousand-Faced Person's figure vanished into the toxic smoke.

She quickly pulled out a pair of infrared thermal imaging goggles from her waist, wanting to lock onto Chen Yuan's position.

But the moment she put on the goggles, she was completely stunned.

In the infrared field of view, it was completely blank.

There was no human heat signature.

No Chen Yuan.

And no blonde secretary.

"Looking for me?"

A playful voice sounded from behind her ear.

The Thousand-Faced Person's hair stood on end, and she struck back with her palm.

Hidden in her palm was a high-voltage stun device.

Enough to electrocute an elephant.

"Zzzzt!" Blue electric arcs jumped.

But her palm struck a cold, hard chest.

Chen Yuan was standing behind her.

He had actually walked straight through those lethal neurotoxins, unharmed.

He didn't even cough once.

"How is this possible... You aren't wearing a gas mask!"

The Thousand-Faced Person completely broke down.

"That thing is too stuffy."

Chen Yuan reached out and grabbed her wrist, his smile playful, "Besides, is this stun device of yours... giving me a massage?"

The Thousand-Faced Person screamed.

She slammed the button on her waist.

"Hum—" That was an ultra-high-frequency infrasonic interference device.

This was her final trump card.

It could instantly cause all creatures within a hundred meters to lose their sense of balance.

In severe cases, the brain would turn into mush.

However, Chen Yuan remained motionless.

He even casually helped her straighten her messy bodysuit.

"Quite a high-end toy," Chen Yuan commented.

"Too bad, for someone like me who has undergone genetic evolution, it's just a bit noisy."

He turned his head and glanced at Alice, who was equally expressionless.

"Alice, did she just try to run?"

"Yes, Boss."

Alice's figure was like a phantom.

She instantly appeared on the Thousand-Faced Person's flank and lifted a foot.

"Boom!"

The Thousand-Faced Person was kicked away like a bowling ball.

She slammed heavily into the cleaning tools.

Mops and buckets clattered all over the floor.

"Pfft—" A mouthful of blood sprayed from the Thousand-Faced Person's mouth.

She felt that at least five of her ribs were broken.

Her internal organs had all shifted out of place.

"I don't believe it... I am the Dark Web's 'Thousand-Faced Person'... I am God's Judgment..."

She struggled, trying to activate the self-destruct device on her wrist.

But Alice was faster.

"Snap!" A crisp breaking sound.

The Thousand-Faced Person's wrists were crushed directly by Alice, hanging limply on the ground.

"You really know how to play."

Chen Yuan stepped in his leather shoes, slowly walking up to her.

He looked down at this top-tier assassin, who looked like a dead dog.

"First a human-skin mask, then neurotoxins, then high-frequency oscillation."

"Pfizer really went to great lengths to kill me."

He squatted down and used the still-lit cigar to gently press against the Thousand-Faced Person's cold, beautiful face.

The searing temperature made the female assassin tremble uncontrollably.

"What... what do you want?"

The Thousand-Faced Person asked through gritted teeth, a hint of viciousness still in her eyes, "Just kill me. The people on the Dark Web will keep watching you. Your head is worth 200 million USD. There will be an endless stream of assassins coming for you."

"200 million USD?" Chen Yuan couldn't help but laugh.

"That was the old price."

"Now, even I have a bounty on my own life."

He stood up and stepped on the Thousand-Faced Person's head.

He ground his sole hard against her cheek.

"Kill you? What a waste."

Chen Yuan turned his head to look at the end of the deep, dark corridor, the direction leading to the deepest underground laboratory.

"Dr. Zola has been complaining lately."

"He says the Tyrants' brain nerves are too dull, lacking sufficient combat instinct."

"Since you can rank fourth on the Dark Web, your brain nerves must be highly developed."

Chen Yuan's tone became extremely gentle, yet it made the Thousand-Faced Person feel as if she had fallen into an ice cave.

"Since you want to play so much, I'll take you to the lab to play something big."

"Boss, should I notify the medical team?" Alice walked over, her eyes cold and sharp.

Chen Yuan waved his hand. "No need."

"Drag her down directly."

"Tell Zola that I've sent him an extremely precious 'raw material'."

"Tell him to use it sparingly."

The Thousand-Faced Person widened her eyes in terror, a plea for mercy emitting from her throat that was unintelligible.

She would rather be shot in the head than go to that legendary underground hell filled with monsters and slime.

But it was useless. Alice was already dragging her by her legs towards the depths of the darkness like a sack.

"No... don't..." "Chen Yuan! You demon! You will go to hell!"

Her screams echoed in the empty corridor, sounding shrill and desperate.

Chen Yuan lit another cigar. He looked at the pool of blood that hadn't dried yet, a satisfied curve appearing at the corner of his mouth.

"A demon?" He whispered to himself.

"If I am a demon." "Then those guys at Pfizer probably don't even have the qualifications to enter hell."

He slowly followed behind Alice. That was the staircase leading to the pinnacle of sin.

"Let's go." "I also want to see what kind of 'masterpiece' this fourth-ranked Dark Web assassin can become."
