Chapter 28 Establishing a Persona

Nighttime, Brooklyn, New York. On the second floor of a large villa covering hundreds of square meters, a brown-haired man in his forties or fifties lies leisurely on a sofa, completely relaxed, enjoying the automated service of a blonde woman in front of him.

The room wasn't just occupied by the two of them; four fully armed bodyguards stood guard nearby, their eyes fixed straight ahead.

As the leader of the Counter-Strike Gang, Brown Rodrik had finally climbed to this position, so of course he had to cherish his life. Therefore, even in such a private moment, he had to be careful, for fear that he wouldn't live to see the end of his life.

His bodyguards were all high-paid veterans, each a muscular man capable of taking on three men unarmed, and equipped with bulletproof vests and pistols to ensure no one could threaten his life.

Standing respectfully before Brown Rodrik was a man with a fierce face, who was his second-in-command.

"Has the AK Party been acting a bit too restless lately?" Brown asked casually, glancing at his deputy.

"Recently, they have indeed had conflicts with us in business dealings, and their methods haven't been very clean. Three or four of our underlings have already been sent to the hospital," the deputy explained.

"Damn it, we agreed to develop the underground drug business together, but lately they've been getting increasingly greedy. Looks like we have to take them down." Brown said, but his bodyguard suddenly moved aside to block his way.

"What's going on? Why are you all so tense all of a sudden?" Brown asked, puzzled. But then he heard a slightly heavy footstep growing louder in his ear. Someone was coming upstairs.

"Where are the bodyguards downstairs? Why didn't they stop him?" Brown thought with a hint of panic.

This sudden change brought Brown back to his normal size, and the blonde woman in front of him got up and huddled in Brown's arms in fear.

"Thump! Thump! Thump!"

The dull thuds of footsteps reached Brown's ears, and his bodyguards warily raised their pistols, aiming them at the stairs. Soon, an unmasked head slowly rose from the stairs.

Brown's eyes widened as he looked past the bodyguard's figure to the newcomer's head, a sense of fear creeping into his heart.

What a face it was! It looked like it had been burned by a raging fire. Even the hair was gone, and the entire face was covered with scars, with not a single patch of intact skin. It was impossible to see the original appearance.

Only a pair of pitch-black eyes stared intently at them, like a demon that had been slain from hell.

The moment the man's appearance appeared, a piercing scream came from the blonde woman in Brown's arms.

The scream was like a signal, and the four bodyguards, who were on high alert, fired their pistols almost simultaneously at the man's exposed head.

"Bang!"

The bullets fired at the same time were aimed at the man from four directions, but were blocked by a heavy iron door the next moment. In Brown's eyes, his nearly ton stainless steel blast door had been removed at some point and was being held in front of the man.

No wonder the footsteps sounded so heavy earlier; how could it not be heavy carrying such a large door?

The man raised the iron gate in his hand and continued to slowly walk up the stairs. During this time, the bodyguards fired bullets continuously, but none of them could penetrate the defenses of his own gate.

"Who are you? Talk to me." At this moment, Brown threw the blonde woman in his arms aside and backed away while trying to communicate.

In response, the next moment, the man grabbed the iron gate and threw it at the gate with terrifying force, using it as a hidden weapon.

"Boom!"

The unstoppable iron gate, carrying terrifying kinetic energy, struck the two bodyguards who had fired their guns. With a dull thud, the gate continued its force, pressing down on Brown and killing all three of them instantly.

As for the other deputy and two bodyguards, they all had fruit knives stuck in their foreheads, piercing their skulls, and lay silently on the ground, lifeless.

Judging from the brand label on the end of the handle, this fruit knife was smuggled from their store.

The entire process, from the man's appearance to the deaths of six people, took no more than five seconds.

The blonde woman, a plaything, and a survivor who was still alive, huddled in a corner in fear, afraid to make a sound.

What awaited her was the man's hoarse voice finally speaking: "Don't worry, I don't kill innocent people who can't resist. Get out of here."

After she finished speaking, the blonde woman finally dared to look up, only to see the man drawing a giant S-shaped bloodstain on the ground with the blood of several dead people, resembling the scene of some cult ritual.

After doing all this, the man, just as he had said, didn't even glance at her again. As he had come, he silently walked down the stairs and disappeared into the villa.

……

Name: Bai Ye

Lifespan: 18/500

Strength: 1.6+0.2

Physical fitness: 1.6+0.2

Spirit: 1.6+

Charisma: 0.3+

Attribute points to be used: 0.2

……

Description section:

Total attribute points exceed 6; Talent 2 [The Composure of the Strong] activated; Attribute points to be used +0.1

You used sulfuric acid to damage the skin on your head and hands; the complete recovery took 184 minutes...

Repeat 781 times, physical fitness improves by 0.1.

Repeat 215 times, mental state improves by 0.1.

……

Looking at the description on the attribute panel, Bai Ye, who had just killed someone and walked out of the villa, scratched his face, which was covered in burns from the corrosion.

The process of his skin regrowing after being disfigured with sulfuric acid was excruciatingly itchy for him.

That's right, sulfuric acid disfigurement. Just now, after Bai Ye secretly returned home, he was going to get the sulfuric acid he used to disfigure himself.

Only by completely altering his appearance and fingerprints can he prevent people from associating him with the murderer who annihilated the gang.

Before this, Bai Ye had conducted some experiments on his own body and successfully understood what it meant to reach a physique of 1.5—it was a leap in the level of life.

If someone's physique before level 1.5 could only be considered as having a very strong recovery ability, then after reaching level 1.5, Byakuya could be considered as Tomie who cannot split herself.

As long as the injury doesn't kill him on the spot, given enough time, he can slowly recover to his original state through eating. Even if he's cut in half at the waist, given enough time, he can grow his lower body back.

The above are reasonable inferences that Bai Ye came to after a series of destructive tests on the body.

Just as described on the panel, Bai Ye only needs three hours for her face, which was disfigured by sulfuric acid, to return to normal, her charm will return to its normal level of 1.4, and even her hair will grow back.

Tonight is the first step for Bai Ye to kill Uncle Li. He will kill a gang leader as a sacrifice to create a vengeful evil god in other people's minds. This person is unrelated to Bai Ye, has a disfigured face, and is full of hatred for the underworld.
