Seeing that he had no chance of winning, the Blood Handprint Monster climbed the wall and fled.
Its hands and feet could stick to the wall, allowing it to run on walls, even ceilings. This peculiar yet flexible mode of movement had saved it from danger multiple times, but as it ran, it began to feel something was amiss.
It looked back and saw the human who had just broken its arm following it in the same posture. Then, to its horror, the human grinned and thrust the slightly blackened steel bar directly into it from behind.
Attacked, the Blood Handprint Monster fell straight from the ceiling, ensnared by surging chains and crushed into pieces.
Wen Wen jumped down from the ceiling, looking at the red and yellow steel bar with a strange odor with some disdain. After a moment's thought, he decided to give it to Heng An, who didn't have a suitable weapon yet…
"Now that your two competitors are dead, it's time for you to fulfill your promise."
"Don't rush, there's one last step."
The monster Wen Wen slowly led Wen Wen to the hall with the metal plate statue. Wen Wen didn't enter the room, just stood at the entrance, worried the monster might play a trick.
"Don't worry, I won't trick you. There's no need for me to stir up trouble now."
Wen Wen pouted; he often said such things himself.
Seeing that Wen Wen refused to enter, the monster Wen Wen wasn't annoyed. It knelt directly before the statue and recited the words on the metal plate.
"Here, under this red moon, we offer ourselves to the Great Lord of Deathly Stillness and Void!"
After reciting, the statue actually stood up and began to knead the metal plate. Simultaneously, the areas in the mental hospital illuminated by the red moonlight began to shrink and eventually disappeared, with all the red moonlight concentrating on the metal plate.
The metal plate melted and dripped onto the monster Wen Wen, gradually forming a red, bizarrely shaped armor.
The monster Wen Wen looked at the armor and let out a wild laugh. Its goal had been achieved, and it was about to embark on a broader life.
Wen Wen was also happy. After the red blood light disappeared, the containment facility became more active, greatly boosting his confidence. It seemed the containment facility feared that round of red moon.
Most importantly, the containment facility now transmitted intense desires, directed at the monster Wen Wen. It seemed the monster Wen Wen truly possessed a part of the containment facility, and the containment facility also wished to become whole.
With newfound confidence, Wen Wen interrupted the laughing monster Wen Wen, his dead eyes glaring. "Hey, give me what you promised."
The monster Wen Wen waved its hand, and the siblings Liu Zhi and Liu Jiaojiao were placed beside Wen Wen, bound by chains.
Wen Wen frowned and said, "We agreed on more than just this."
The monster Wen Wen laughed wildly, "I'll give you the rest later, if you can survive that long!"
"You plan to renege?" Wen Wen prepared to thrust the foul-smelling steel bar into its mouth.
The monster Wen Wen pointed to the edge of the mental hospital, saying, "Everything here, including you and me, will eventually be sent to the realm of the Death Sovereign. All beings here will be my subordinates from now on… You're finished. If you submit to me now, I can spare your life."
Wen Wen walked to the window and saw the edges of the mental hospital rising into the sky. He extended a finger and released a beam of light.
The light, upon contacting the edge of the mental hospital, was bizarrely deflected, shooting towards the moon.
The monster Wen Wen swaggered to Wen Wen's side and said, "Don't try to resist. Even light cannot escape from here, and neither can you."
"You are much stronger than me, perhaps you haven't even used your full strength yet. But before the Death Sovereign, your power is merely that of a strong ant."
It spread its arms and said to Wen Wen, "Join me. We will become complete, and together we will become even stronger… until we stand at the pinnacle."
The monster Wen Wen didn't actually know what awaited it, which was why it wanted to recruit Wen Wen. It understood its own capabilities, and there was no better assistant than Wen Wen.
Wen Wen's face immediately fell, "Get lost, you pervert! I like women!"
"You're rejecting me? You will regret it!" Upon hearing Wen Wen's words, the monster Wen Wen gave up on recruiting him. They were once one, so much so that a single sentence could reveal the other's thoughts.
It grinned sinisterly, "Whether you submit to me is not up to you. When we get up there, I will make your life a living hell, and your death a torment."
Wen Wen shrugged, "We'll see about that."
The monster Wen Wen continued, "Also, I dislike people having the same name as me. From today on, I'll call myself Wen Wen."
Wen Wen was silent for two seconds, "What's the difference?"
The monster Wen Wen was speechless, then furiously said, "Then I'll call myself Wen Li!"
"It's not as good as calling yourself 'hot spring egg'…" Wen Wen sighed. At least in terms of being bad at naming, they were the same.
From now on, besides Wu Wang, there was another name that would take the blame for Wen Wen: Wen Li…
Seeing that the edges of the mental hospital had completely disappeared, and they would soon ascend, Wen Wen no longer hesitated. Taking advantage of the monster Wen Wen, now Wen Li, not paying attention, he placed his right hand on its chest.
"What do you want to do? I am now a favored servant of the Death Sovereign. You cannot kill me here," Wen Li said, looking at Wen Wen strangely.
Wen Wen's lips curled into a smile, "One must be honest. If you promise something, you must fulfill it. If you don't give it, I'll take it!"
A powerful suction appeared from Wen Wen's hand, and black chains wrapped around him. Then, something indescribable began to surge from Wen Li's body towards the Disaster Containment Facility.
"What is this? What did you do?"
Wen Li looked at Wen Wen in horror. He felt something in his body constantly draining away, and he had lost the ability to control those chains…
Soon, Wen Li's body was drained of its essence. He collapsed to the ground, powerless, and glared at Wen Wen sinisterly.
"So what if you took something from me? I am the victor of this duel. You will ultimately belong to me. Then, I will subject you to the most terrifying torture! I will…"
"Eat shit!"
Wen Wen directly thrust the steel bar into Wen Li's mouth, pinning him to a wall.
But even so, Wen Li was still mumbling curses at Wen Wen.
"Tsk tsk, it really can't be killed."
Wen Wen tilted his head, observing Wen Li for a moment, then said to him, "Just like you, I don't like another me. Even though you changed your name, you still look very much like me…"
"Therefore, I'm going to give you a makeover!"
