I love you, brother, but you, the evil god, must fall into good.

Mu Mu'en spoke subconsciously, but the next second, she denied the guess.

"No……"

"It's not a dragon."

A passage I had once seen in historical records quickly surfaced in my mind.

[Among the dragon-like creatures is the clam, which resembles a snake but is larger, with horns like a dragon. It has red manes, and its scales below the waist are all reversed. It eats swallows.]

[It can conjure up images of towering buildings and city walls with its breath, appearing before rain; this is called a mirage, also known as a sea market.]

[Their resin and wax, when used to make candles, produce fragrance that travels a hundred paces, and the smoke even forms shapes of pavilions.]

Mu Mu'en's expression gradually froze.

They also recognized the thing in front of them... it was definitely not an ordinary stealth-type superhuman.

Instead, it's Calamity Sequence 173, [Mirage]!

Then a flood of information flashed through her mind.

"etc……"

Then a very ominous possibility came to mind.

He glanced down at the [Mirage] he had just used.

Then he thought of the source of that contained object, which was the corpse of the escaped [Mirage].

"..."

No, no way?

What a coincidence?

Mu Mu'en's expression gradually became strange.

"It's not because of your ancestors..."

"It's in my hands now, isn't it?!"

Mu Mu'en was somewhat bewildered as she looked at the mirage before her.

The opposing [Mirage] also did not immediately launch an attack.

It just stared intently at Mu Mu'en.

Just like you think... it's the mirage on her body.

The aura emanating from the contained object caused [Mirage] to show obvious hesitation for the first time.

It was originally planning to run away.

That's right.

It had already realized this during the exchange.

The little girl in front of me is only at level three.

However, there was also a Judgement user who had just broken through to the sixth rank.

Continuing to argue with it will not do it any good.

Although it is a calamity, it is not without brains.

Those who have survived to this day, who among them doesn't know how to seek advantage and avoid harm?

Especially for calamities of the illusionary type, what they truly excel at is never direct confrontation.

But...

escape!

Create illusions, disrupt perception, and use the environment.

Then look for an opportunity to escape.

It had even just figured out its next plan.

Just keep running towards crowded places, and then the illusion will suddenly unfold.

Whether they are ordinary people or low-level superhumans, once they are trapped in the illusion, they will instantly lose their ability to move.

At that time...

It can even deliberately create chaos to make those humans appear to be severely injured or even self-harming.

When the judges arrived and had to provide rescue and treatment... they took advantage of the chaos to escape!

This is the safest solution.

That's why it kept weaving through the crowd.

only……

Just as it was about to execute the plan, the mirage sensed an extremely familiar presence.

That was the aura of bloodline, the bloodline of the [Mirage].

Then it suddenly stopped, its cold, beastly eyes fixed on Mu Mu'en.

that moment.

Something seemed to explode in the mirage's mind.

Familiar with.

So familiar!

That feeling... was like a call from the deepest part of my blood.

Although that item has undergone countless processing steps.

But as a member of the same race, it could still sense the aura of the [Shen] race.

"..."

【蜃】It did not speak, because it could not speak human language.

But its emotions changed at that moment.

All the initial caution and apprehension, and the thought of fleeing, vanished.

Instead, anger took its place.

And a fury that comes from the depths of one's blood!

As is widely known, the [Mirage] lineage, like the [False Humans], belongs to a racial type of calamity.

It is not like the [Nuo Yao], which exists as a single, unique individual.

They have their own groups and bloodlines.

So.

They place far greater importance on the inheritance of bloodlines and the existence of their own kind than on ordinary calamities.

especially……

The belongings of one's own kind, left behind after their death, were turned into containment objects.

And now, this containment object is hanging on the little girl in front of us.

Just like...

Someone dug up your ancestor's ashes and turned them into a toy.

They might even hold the toy and wave it around in front of you.

Aren't you angry?

Of course I'm angry, I'm absolutely furious!

The body of the [Mirage] trembled slightly. It looked at Mu Mu'en, and then at the [Mirage].

At this moment, he no longer cared about any ruling.

They no longer cared about the escape plan they had just devised.

It's going to take this back!

This guy in front of me! He dares to desecrate my bloodline! I must completely annihilate him!

"……Um?"

Mu Mu'en also sensed something was wrong; she could clearly feel that the aura on the other side was changing.

Just a moment ago it was barely there, even deliberately hidden.

but now……

It's skyrocketing!

Third order...

Fourth tier...

next moment.

boom!!!

A terrifying mental force suddenly erupted from [Mirage]'s body.

The air in the entire mall seemed to freeze in that instant.

The crowd that was originally around them, and even their voices, seemed to be swallowed up by some invisible force.

Mu Mu'en's pupils suddenly contracted.

"etc……"

"This aura..."

"Fifth tier?!"

Mu Mu'en's expression instantly turned serious.

"This calamity..."

"It's actually Tier 5!"

And at this very moment.

【蜃】Moved.

Without any unnecessary movements, the massive body suddenly vanished from its spot.

next second.

A terrifying force is already hurtling towards Mu Mu'en!

Although [Mirage]'s physical strength is not particularly outstanding.

Strictly speaking, after all.

As a calamity of the illusion type, its truly terrifying aspect has never been close combat.

But at this moment, it deliberately did not dodge, and even let Mu Mu'en's attack fall on it.

"Touch of Ten Thousand Dragons!"

boom!

As black and purple tentacles instantly wrapped around it, one of the tentacles, which had merged with the [Hungry Mouth], opened its hideous maw.

It bit down hard on the body of the [Mirage].

Blood splattered, scales shattered.

Upon seeing this, the Thousand Machine Hand in the distance fell into a brief silence.

"???"

As she watched this scene, a question mark slowly appeared in her mind.

"no……"

"Is this mirage dragon an idiot?"

It is clearly a calamity of the illusionary realm.

So you ended up trading blows with a melee-type superhuman?

What kind of operation is this?

However, the next second, the Thousand-Machine Hand's expression changed.

"wrong!"

"It was intentional!"

That's right, from the very beginning, [Mirage] never intended to fight head-on.

Its goal is to get closer!

Because only when the distance is close enough can its capabilities be maximized.

At this moment, Mu Mu'en's [Touch of Ten Thousand Dragons] had successfully hit its target.

The distance between the two... has become dangerously close.

The next moment, [Shen] suddenly raised its head, and its eyes, which were originally hidden under its scales, suddenly opened!

"Buzz—!"

Mu Mu'en's body stiffened.

This guy in front of me... has more than one pair of eyes!

Beneath the scaly face of the [mirage].

One, two, three...

More eerie eyes slowly opened, each reflecting a different illusion.

Then all eyes simultaneously locked onto Mu Mu'en.

A mental shock!

Illusion!

A sudden burst of power!
