Superman's End Manual

She paused. "As a price, only one family member will die, your albino vampire sister. I need her heart; it's a last resort."

Blue Owl remained silent for a long time: "So she's a vampire?"

“Still pretending. It seems you’re the one who truly can’t distinguish between reality and fantasy.” Stroll shook her head.

"Whether I'm faking it or not, I will refuse."

The blue owl spoke slowly, its tone indifferent.

“As expected… I knew you would refuse.” Stroll lowered her eyes. “This only proves that we have something in common. If you had told me, ‘Hand over the heart of Flinx, and our struggle will end,’ I would have refused as well. There’s no way around it.”

"So we have no choice but to fight," Blue Owl said.

“Yes, the kind that’s deadly,” Stroll said.

The two spoke as if they were having a casual conversation, avoiding each other's gaze.

After a long pause, the blue owl whispered, "You have no chance of winning. Leave now while you still have time."

"What makes you think I have no chance of winning?"

"Close to zero".

Stroll said, "Do you think I've fallen for your trap? Bringing you here has only exposed my own location."

The blue owl looked up at her intently. "Otherwise what?"

Sterling said, "You're too naive. I was just playing along."

"Play along?" Blue Owl pondered.

"You think I've fallen into your trap, but actually I'm just trying to lure your family away. If they come to rescue you, then that apartment building in the old Jingmai neighborhood will be easier to breach. That white-haired vampire should be isolated and helpless right now. Don't worry... even if I find your true form, I won't attack you for the time being, because I believe that no matter what, you will ultimately stand by my side."

She paused for a moment, then continued, "So, after we capture that white-haired vampire, Flinx and I will leave this city. We might meet again in about six months."

The blue owl was silent for a moment, then said dismissively, "It seems that the memories you read from my mind are not complete enough."

"Do you mean?"

“My family…” Blue Owl paused, then sighed softly, “They are all monsters. Even if you lure some away, it won’t help. The rest are still monsters among monsters.”

“Then, if I may be so bold, my ‘family’ are all monsters too,” Stroll laughed. “I don’t think they’ll lose to your family.”

"Well, from this point of view alone, we do have some similarities."

“Aren’t you afraid?” Stroll said jokingly. “Afraid that I’ll tell your family your true identity, since they’re on their way to rescue you right now.”

“What’s there to be afraid of?” the Blue Owl said calmly. “If they’re already here, they’re probably fighting your companions right now. So, you’re the one who’s all alone.”

He paused. "You'll die here before they even reach this floor, by my hand. That's why there's no chance my identity will be exposed."

“That’s cruel. Don’t you think you sound more like a ‘villain’ compared to me?” Stroll said innocently. “I’m the one who’s been giving in at every turn.”

"Like you, I was forced into this situation too."

"Then there's no other way. Let's settle this here..."

Stroll paused for a moment, then said softly, "To the death." As she spoke, a hint of mockery suddenly appeared on her pretty face, and she changed the subject, "Although I'd like to say that, is there a possibility?"

"What's possible?"

“What’s here is just my puppet,” she said slowly.

"Impossible." Blue Owl sneered. "I've already verified it with an item. The person here is a player. This means that the person in front of me is undoubtedly the real you. Is bluffing fun?"

According to the identity determination of the anchor sunglasses, the person within eight meters of the blue owl is "Gastro (player)". Others may lie to him, but the system's judgment will not be wrong.

At this moment, since ten minutes had already passed, Ke Mingye's sunglasses no longer reflected Stroll's location.

However, until now, Stella's location has remained unchanged in this abandoned building, so he can be sure that the girl in front of him is indeed Stella herself.

“It was definitely me here just now, but didn’t I say a few minutes ago… I went to the bathroom?” Stroll suddenly said.

The blue owl paused slightly upon hearing this.

"That's right, I just switched to a puppet and put on a show in front of you, but you were so clueless that you didn't notice."

As she spoke, Stroll slowly tore off the human face mask, revealing another face—the face of a strange girl.

A look of disbelief crossed Blue Owl's eyes. He then frowned and took a deep breath.

"Good for you……"

The girl possessed by Strom said, "My true form is already heading towards your home. You should start praying now. Pray that the few people left in your house can stop us from taking that vampire away."

"So, you deliberately played along with me here for so long," Blue Owl whispered.

Stroll shook her head: "We're in the same boat. Neither of us has the right to judge the other."

As she spoke, she manipulated the parasite-controlled puppet to rise from its wheelchair, approached Blue Owl, and gently touched his cheek.

Then, he bent down, picked up the blue owl mask from the ground, and gently put it on his face.

"What a pity, I thought we were together." She stared at the eyes behind the Blue Owl mask and said softly.

"That was just a delusion you had before you died," Blue Owl said expressionlessly. "You can't beat my family, don't even think about it."

Upon hearing this, Stroll leaned close to his ear and whispered, "But I can expose your identity and make you an executioner in front of your own family, a big liar who killed Ke Mingye and tried to take away his family."

"So what? The worst outcome for me is just leaving this city and never living as Ke Mingye again." Blue Owl paused. "But you... you will die no matter what, and die a complete death."

“Who knows until the very end…” Stroll said expressionlessly. “But I was just lucky. If your original body didn’t have the vampire oath mark left by your vampire sister, I might have really fallen for your trick and died on this floor… I must say, you are indeed more skilled, but fate is on my side.”

Don't be too confident.

"No one has beaten Flinx, he is the best."

“Then let’s wait and see,” said the Blue Owl.

“Oh, right, I have some good news to tell you at the end,” Stroll said. “Actually, when I went to that underground bar, it wasn’t to control Che Zhengchen, but to meet the president of the Superhero Association’s branch, ‘Li Qingyao.’ He was about to meet Che Zhengchen, so I also planted a parasite in Che Zhengchen’s brain.”

"and then?"

“Then…” Stroll paused for a moment, then slowly curled the corners of her lips into a smile, “I’ll let you in on a secret: Li Qingyao has a nuclear bomb in her possession.”

The blue owl's pupils contracted slightly, and it asked, enunciating each word clearly: "A nuclear bomb?"

Stroll gazed at his face and said softly, "That's right. I haven't used this trump card yet, precisely to prevent those around him from noticing anything amiss. He's worked diligently for decades, climbing the ranks step by step, with no hidden dangers. It must be said, he truly enjoys the deep trust of the government and officials; otherwise, how could he wield such power?"

The blue owl met her gaze and swallowed slightly.

"The nuclear missile is probably about to launch. Hurry up and send your crowman father to save the day. He's the only one who might know where the nuclear detonator is."

As she spoke, Stroll turned her head to the side, her gaze empty, looking out at the city in the distance.

"To be honest, I never thought of using this nuclear bomb... After all, if it's not handled properly, it could cause a lot of casualties, but you forced me to..."

At that moment, her words came to an abrupt halt, as a figure suddenly emerged from the shadows behind her and delivered a chop to the back of Stroll's neck, knocking her unconscious.

Immediately afterwards, Ke Xiaomo realized something was wrong, and then frowned slightly. He used his internal energy to strike the girl's back, forcing the parasites out of her internal organs.

He extended a thin shadow blade from the tip of his finger, slicing up the parasite that the girl spat out.

Afterwards, only he and Ke Mingye remained conscious in the abandoned building.

"are you OK?"

Ke Xiaomo took a deep breath, shifted her gaze from the girl, and turned to look at the blue owl.

“I’m alright… but she’s got her eyes on our family.” Blue Owl slowly raised his face and said haltingly, “Second Brother… you should go back quickly.”

"Our family?" Ke Xiaomo frowned.

“I don’t know…it might be swimming bamboo.” Blue Owl shook his head.

"Yongzhu again?"

Ke Xiaomo was slightly taken aback at first, then quickly used the shadow blade on her finger to cut open the chains on the blue owl.

"Stop talking...Go now!"

The blue owl freed itself from the pillar, knelt on the ground, and spoke in a hoarse voice.

"I understand, be careful."

As soon as she finished speaking, Ke Xiaomo vanished into the shadow beneath her feet and disappeared into the building.

No sooner had he left than a jet-black crow swiftly flew into the building, its feathers scattering across the floor. Immediately afterward, a dark figure appeared amidst the fallen feathers.

"only you?"

The crow glanced at the blue owl wearing a tattered mask and asked in a low voice.

"That player is infiltrated among the vampire hunters! She's used a parasite to control the president of the Superhero Association, 'Li Qingyao,' you need to hurry... the president has the authority to activate a nuclear missile!"

After speaking, the blue owl collapsed to the ground, exhausted, and remained motionless.

"Li Qingyao, a nuclear bomb..."

Upon hearing this, the crow paused slightly, murmured to itself, and then quickly vanished from the spot, leaving only a single crow feather swirling in the cool breeze.
