“Be quiet.” Bald Eagle sat on Shen Luo’s left side. He was the most nervous. He had been dragged into the cryptic world to be brainwashed by Han Fei, but now he was just desperate to contact Han Fei.

“Okay. We get down.”

The sky was darker. A helmet was put on Shen Luo. He was held and moved in the dark for forty minutes. When the helmet was removed, he noticed he was standing inside an enclosed room.

“Is anyone there? I need to use the bathroom!” Shen Luo looked around. There was no furniture other than the giant mirror facing him. “I really want to join you!” Shen Luo shouted, but there was no answer. He felt a bit afraid. He wanted to hide in the corner, but he felt it would be too embarrassing. As a good economic trade, he knew that he had to appear more confident when he had less confidence.

About 10 minutes later, Shen Luo realized something. He slowly turned his head to the mirror. As he turned, his reflection was still facing him and didn’t move. “There’s something very wrong with this mirror!” The room had no door. Shen Luo felt like the door was behind the mirror. He resisted the fear, walked to the mirror, and touched its surface. When his fingertips landed on the mirror, Dream’s consciousness and Mad Laughter’s memory boiled at the same time!

The mirror sensed something, and it started to bleed!

Shocked voices came from outside the room. The ritual hadn’t officially started, but the mirror had already reacted. This had never happened before!

After a short pause, Guinea Pig’s voice came from outside the room. “Bite your fingers and use your blood to write your name on the mirror.”

“That will require a lot of blood. Can I have a red pen instead?” Shen Luo asked softly. But as he said that, the wall behind him started to move forward to squash him. “Okay. I’ll do it.”

After Shen Luo bit his finger and wrote down his name, Guinea Pig’s voice rang again, “God has made a decision. We have no time to waste. I will ask you a few questions. Your answer will decide whether you will leave here alive or not.”

“Ask.” Shen Luo rubbed the wound on his finger.

“To become our core members, you have to pass this test.

“Death is blooming, you’ll become the most beautiful flower. When Xin Lu becomes a sea of flower, you will be reborn in a new world.

“I’ll send you across the bridge.”

Guinea Pig’s voice had some magical powers. Death surfaced in the mirror. The surface turned into the water like there was a deep lake behind the mirror. When he mentioned the bridge, Shen Luo, in the mirror, lifted his head. It grabbed Shen Luo’s hand, which was on the mirror surface, and held him in place.

“Damn! Am I hallucinating? This world is haunted!” All the members of the murderer’s clubhouse looked in the mirror. This was the most dangerous and crucial time. This unique mirror would show everyone Shen Luo had killed. If the shadows of those victims could join with Shen Luo, then he’d be promoted to a core member and become the new Butterfly. When everyone was worried, the mirror echoed with the laughter of children.

Small handprints appeared on the mirror surface. A boy about ten appeared in the mirror. He wore the orphanage’s clothes, stood inside the mirror, and looked around curiously.

“It’s here!” Bald Eagle was stunned when he saw the image on the surveillance camera. “The first person he killed is a child… No! Why is this scene so familiar?”

The boy didn’t seem to realize that he was dead. He moved around in the mirror until more children appeared…

Bald Eagle stared at the screen until the mirror was filled with 30 children. The other members also held their breath. “He has killed 30 children, and this is just the beginning?” Honestly, not only the members but also Shen Luo were scared. He felt like all the children wanted to crawl into his brain.

“To reach the other side of the bridge, you will lose something. Are you ready? Are you willing to lose your happiness and your smile?” Guinea Pig’s voice came from outside the room. Shen Luo wasn’t really listening. He tried to pull his hand away, but his hand was fixed to the mirror. The children grabbed Shen Luo’s arm. The latter almost pissed his pants from fear.

“I don’t know any of you!”

The children slammed on the mirror. They wanted to find someone to share their pain and despair! “I really don’t know you!” Bald Eagle had seen the same scene before. But that person shed blood before the mirror, and Shen Luo shed tears.

“Are you willing to be taken by anger and accept god’s blessing?”

When Guinea Pig saw the dead people in the mirrors, his suspicion lowered. He suspected that Shen Luo was not the real Butterfly. But other than Butterfly, who would kill 30 people when he was still a kid? Shen Luo was more than just a murderer, and he was an evil monster. Many members who looked down on Shen Luo were now silent. What was a supercriminal? Shen Luo was a supercriminal. God’s choice was never wrong.

“Are you willing to embrace death, chase after death, and spread death?”

Guinea Pig followed the ritual instruction and asked the next question. Then, everyone saw something scary. The 30 children started to mutate. The scariest monster grew out of their souls! Other than that, a theme park made from death appeared in the mirror. Dead bodies were laid under the monsters. It was uncountable how many people had died because of him. Even Guinea Pig sucked in a cold breath. Things were getting out of hand. God’s ritual had a whole process. One would see death, accept death, spread death, and become death.

The ritual hadn’t reached the last step, but the most important mirror in the club couldn’t sustain it anymore. These mirrors were bridges to the cryptic world. Once they were destroyed, many things would be very complicated. Guinea Pig was conflicted. His fingers were white. His lips opened to ask the last question.

“Are you willing to become your real self?”

The monster made from the 30 children raised its head. They looked at Shen Luo outside the window as if they wanted to take over his body.

“No. Save me!”

“No, you are willing.” Shen Luo in the mirror smiled to reveal mad laughter. Mad Laughter’s lingering memory in Shen Luo’s mind was openly welcoming the monsters back! The shapes of the 30 monsters charged at the mirror surface!

The mirror at the clubhouse shattered. All the death crawled into Shen Luo. Dream’s consciousness was awakened. Shen Luo’s eyes bled, and he couldn’t stop laughing. He was a perfect madman, but no one in the club, including Guinea Pig, dared to say that he was mad. Shen Luo pounded the ground with his hands. The butterfly tattoo on Shen Luo kept growing. But this was just on the surface. In his mind, the dead children were slowly awakening. The mirror was a bridge the clubhouse used to bridge to the cryptic world. Now Shen Luo had become a bridge himself.

“Is this a success or a failure?” Crow looked at Shen Luo. His eyes were filled with caution. Now he understood the difference between himself and supercriminal. The monster was more than simple evil. They were walking tragedies.

“I don’t get it either, but…” Guinea Pig thought back to what had happened. “Many years ago, 30 children were killed at the orphanage owned by Immortal Pharma. The night is called the Bloodred Night.”

Crow’s expression slowly changed. “The blood debt of 30 children? Do you think… this Shen Luo is the flower God is looking for?”

“Yes.” Guinea Pig was shocked by his own prediction. “He might become a special presence that surpasses the first creation in the future.”

“Thankfully, I didn’t kill him as you told me to.” Crow touched his mask. “But how can blank not know? Isn’t Sunday Night School the best at gouging out people’s brains to get their information? Why did they take pity on him this time?”

“I can’t read him anymore. He looks younger than all of us, but he’s much older than us.” Guinea Pig pressed a button, and the wall sunk. They looked at Shen Luo in the room, and no one dared to approach.

“The thing we need to do now is to send Shen Luo to God so that God can complete his last creation. I know he has been looking for this most unique flower.” After a long hesitation, Crow was the first to enter the room and extend his hand to Shen Luo.

“Supercriminal Shen Luo, welcome for joining us.”
