The leader found it strange that if Nanzhu was really as troublesome as Shiyin said, Shiyin wouldn't have kept Nanzhu indefinitely.

"I'm sorry, I don't know either. As I told you, I have not only led the world but also been a zombie. In fact, I have never met him in either of these factions, and I have never had such a deep interaction with him before."

Shiyin didn't understand this either.

"When I was human, I paid attention to him a few times and planted a mark on him. In fact, he was always normal until he died under various circumstances, and he never had any contact with the new world."

"It should be said that this life, with him following me, is the time when he has the most contact with the new world. At other times, he has always been a qualified and ordinary working man."

"Is that so..." The Commander-in-Chief pondered, "So you still felt something was off this time, which is why you wanted to observe more closely?"

“That’s true. But as you’ve seen, for an ordinary person, he does indeed possess the talents that an ordinary genius should have.” Shi Yin expressed regret: “But that’s all. So far, he hasn’t shown any talents that exceeded my expectations.”

Lin Beiyue, Gu Changge, Ye Shaoheng, and Guan Nianshan were all geniuses who exceeded Shi Yin's expectations. Shi Yin had repeatedly tried to find ways to stabilize their condition.

Clearly, their performance was outstanding once again.

Lin Beiyue was the first to obtain the mark of diligence this time. Qin Jin didn't even have to sacrifice Gu Changge before he awakened his second ability. Ye Shaoheng didn't get the mark of ability but evolved three times. Guan Nianshan's ability changed again...

As for Nan Zhu, Shi Yin acknowledged that he was a good secretary, but that was all.

Even so, even for that vague and illusory illusion, Shi Yin could not ignore it.

Shion could keep this item to herself, even if she never knew what use it was and let it rot on the ground as a table cushion, she would never give it to the enemy.

"As for the others, as long as Ye Shaoheng comes to his senses, he will definitely be able to bring them out." Shi Yin said, "There is no time left, we can't wait any longer. Ye Shaoheng must obtain the Mark of Valor, or he will die inside and perish together with Belphegor."

When she said this, Shion had no expression, and her eyes even carried a coldness and impatience. This was the first time that the leader had a real feeling about the villain that Shion claimed to be.

"Sigh." The leader shook his head, still choosing to stand on Shi Yin's side.

"Please give the order, Commander." Shi Yin took a deep breath and regained her composure.

“Alright.” The leader said solemnly, “I command my puppet, Shiyin, with my puppet ability. I command you again to break through Belphegor’s power and enter the Mirror World. Bring out the people you want to bring and do what you want to do… Try your best to ensure your own safety.”

"...I obey your command, Lord Commander."

Whether it was the leader's imagination or not, he seemed to see a helpless smile on Shi Yin's face.

Immediately afterwards, Shi Yin disappeared. When she reappeared, she was already at the top of the black substance, with a red flag fluttering in the wind atop a golden spear.

Seemingly sensing the danger, the black substance became somewhat agitated, and several black, cloud-like tentacles swept over and circled behind Shi Yin, as if to pierce through the back of Shi Yin's head.

Shi Yin's flowing long hair roamed like a serpent, incredibly resilient, like a whip that would lash out at any approaching black mist.

To put it bluntly, for Shion, the head is the least likely place to break through.

In the long night, the golden spear tore through the sky like a meteor, turning into a dazzling light, and crashed hard into the black substance. The golden-red light and blackness surged, and in just a few seconds, it "spit" Shi Yin out again.

It failed?

The commander-in-chief's eyes widened; it was the first time he had ever seen Shi Yin fail in a single attack.

In the past, Tokine only needed a few moves to achieve her goal.

The black substance was dispersed by the golden-red light, then gathered again. This time, it seemed to solidify a little, transforming into a small black old man, appearing and disappearing in the gray mist.

"Are you Shiyin?" The old man was not big, only about the size of a small house, but his voice sounded muffled, as if he had just woken up.

Tsk, this method still doesn't work. Shi Yin was too lazy to pay attention to Belphegor; she really hated this kind of power, the World Domain.

That's too xenophobic.

There are only two ways to get in: one is to merge with the same kind, and the other is to use completely opposite attributes. Shion just used the latter method.

However, the force was insufficient; any stronger force would have affected the buildings below.

Belfinger was indeed a brilliant choice of location, sleeping right above the most densely populated area.

Try again.

The golden spear in Shi Yin's hand shone even brighter. This time, she changed her angle and charged upwards from a low angle. The golden light, with a dazzling trail, once again rushed towards the black substance.

Belfinger, however, was as soft and unfixed as a cloud. It suddenly transformed from the shape of an old man into a pocket, swallowing the golden light directly into its belly.

Immediately afterwards, Belfinger and Shion were like water poured into a bottle, the black and gold colors shaking wildly together, and finally, as if water was being poured out of the bottle, Shion was poured out again.

Moreover, this time Shi Yin was "spit" into the air, and the overflowing energy was leaked to the ground by Belphegor. Fortunately, Shi Yin controlled the power, and the golden light only made a few small craters when it hit the ground.

This time, however, it clearly caused considerable damage to Belphegor. Belphegor dissipated for quite some time before slowly gathering back together, and after gathering, it was obviously even more agitated.

"Shiyin, why are you resorting to violence right from the start? I haven't caused any irreparable harm to you." Belfinger didn't want to fight Shiyin: "I was just sent here to sleep, and I only swallowed a little over a hundred of your people. What difference will it make if you give up?"

“I’ll leave in three months. We’ll have a ceasefire. Don’t worry about me. I’ll go to sleep and ignore you. You can take the humans to recuperate. It’s a win-win situation for everyone.” Belfinger suggested, “I hate fighting and killing the most. I’ve overdone it.”

“There’s another suggestion: spit out the people you swallowed,” Shi Yin sneered.

“I can’t just come here and do nothing. I’d be hard to explain. You have nearly a billion people left. Losing a hundred or so people won’t matter, right?” Belfinger said discontentedly. “Agreeing to my proposal is equivalent to buying humanity more than three months of time.”

"Heh, so the negotiations have fallen through." Shi Yin casually tossed the spear aside.

“Remnants of the old world, don’t be ungrateful.” Belphegor was displeased: “Your power was indeed strong just now, but…”

Belfinger's voice stopped abruptly, and the commander-in-chief also stopped abruptly.

The sky had become filled with countless crows, circling around Shi Yin with their crimson eyes.

The commander couldn't tell whether the black things on Shi Yin's body were scales or feathers. It was too dark, and he could only see the sharp claws on Shi Yin's raised hand in the dim light of the red moon. Behind her were the wings of crows.

"Impossible, this is impossible!" Belphegor finally panicked. "How could you possibly be on the side of the Old World? You, you are!!"

Before it could finish speaking, Shi Yin moved even faster, rushing into Belfinger's body along with the flock of crows. In an instant, Belfinger's voice stopped abruptly, dissipating into clouds, and there was no more sound.
