The young man continued, "That guy suddenly became incredibly powerful. The three limbs he lost have now been transformed into complex steel prosthetics that can not only deform at any time but also release powerful electric currents."

"The other guy, for some reason, is completely immune to the suffocating grip."

"Impossible! How long has it been? How could a near-death cripple become a superhuman who can defeat Depp!?" Donald exclaimed in disbelief.

Keep in mind that only a few hours had passed since they last met.

What kind of power could turn a dying ordinary person into someone capable of killing a level 30 superhuman? It's like a dream!

Mason stood up and said, "Kid, I told you, Arkham is more complicated than you can imagine. You're making a move without even finding out who's behind Los Arkham. That's just asking for death!"

Donald's face immediately showed some annoyance, especially after being reprimanded by Mason.

“Where are they now? This time I’ll take direct action!” Donald said, taken aback.

The young man said in a low voice, "They've disappeared."

"Disappeared!?"

"Yes, they disappeared after entering the second floor of Clover Company. I guess they already suspected that there were other people around us."

"waste!"

Donald cursed angrily, scratched his head in frustration, making a strange rubbing sound.

"I'm going to bring Los Arkham back right now!!" he said, turning to leave.

Mason immediately rebuked, "You need to understand our objective here. We don't have the resources to start a war right now."

"Then what's your plan?!" Donald asked impatiently.

Mason paused for a few seconds and said, "Let me contact an old friend and see how things go."

Chapter 0196 Meeting with an Old Friend

Jenny walked around the streets to make sure there were no other threats before returning to her shop to continue operating.

The place where the battle just took place is only about 200 meters away from here, which is not far.

Fortunately, the residents of Arkham are now well-prepared and experienced in dealing with such events, so after the brief disturbance, everything returned to calm.

Jingle Bell

The sound of the wind chimes hanging on the door indicates the arrival of guests.

"Welcome!" Jenny is a very dedicated and hardworking person. As long as she can continue this peaceful life, she is even willing to work harder.

Hundreds of years ago, Jenny, who had been constantly persecuted, loathed her vampire identity and longed to be an ordinary person and live a peaceful life.

Now that she has finally found her own place, she cherishes her current environment all the more.

The door was pushed open, and under Jenny's gaze, an old woman wearing a hat walked in.

"So many years have passed, and you haven't changed at all," the old woman said, looking at Jenny, who was still youthful and beautiful.

Jenny looked at the old woman, her previously enthusiastic smile gradually fading: "You've gotten even older, Mason."

Mason smiled, his voice somewhat sinister.

“I really envy you immortal beings, able to maintain your perfect appearance forever,” Mason said, walking in and sitting on the sofa.

Jenny stood by the counter without moving: "What brings you back at this hour?"

Mason smiled and said, "Can't I come to see you even if there's nothing wrong? You're one of the closest people I have in Arkham. After all, we went through the most difficult and dark times together."

About forty years ago, Arkham was a relatively crazy era.

That year, a large-scale plague suddenly struck Arkham, killing many people. In that desperate era, people who were collapsing and going mad longed for an outlet for their frustration.

Just then, the empire launched a large-scale witch purification campaign, and thus a crazy feast began.

At that time, at least several women were burned alive every day in Arkham.

Most of them did indeed commit unforgivable sins, but some were wrongly accused young girls.

At that time, all women were subject to strict examinations, and people of dubious origin like Jenny and Mason naturally became the focus of attention.

The persecution inflicted on the two was naturally terrifying.

During that dark time, Mason helped Jenny conceal her vampire identity, while Jenny helped her heal her wounds.

Both times she was to be burned at the stake, Jenny helped her escape by sheer luck.

The two of them were like two lone wolves who had come together, licking each other's wounds and getting through that time.

Jenny looked at the frail old woman with a hint of sadness in her eyes: "I remember the first time I saw you, you were a twelve-year-old innocent girl. Seventy years have passed in the blink of an eye, and you have changed from that innocent girl into this."

Mason chuckled softly: "No human can resist the erosion of time, which is why I envy you."

"So, five years ago, you secretly planned to eat me and steal my ancestral blood?" A cold glint flashed in Jenny's eyes.

Mason did not deny it, but said directly and frankly: "No one can resist the temptation of immortality."

After a pause, Mason sighed softly, "Unfortunately, no one can truly live forever."

"Is that so?"

At that moment, a dignified, elegant, and mature older sister's voice came from inside.

As the wind chimes rang, a mature and elegant woman dressed in a women's suit and a professional long skirt walked in.

The well-tailored clothes hugged her perfect body to an extreme degree.

A woman with a firm chest, slender waist, perky buttocks, and long, shapely legs is the mature, sophisticated woman that countless men dream of.

Upon seeing this woman, Mason's eyes, almost completely obscured by the wrinkles of old age, flashed with an incredulous look of shock.

Lilith walked in, looked at the old and hunched Mason, and said with a sneer, "Ten years have passed, and it feels like you've already stepped one foot into your coffin, Mason."

“How are you still alive? With your bizarre life form, you should have died long ago! No woman can stay young forever! No one!” Mason stood up and said with certainty.

Lilith stretched out her hand, and you could see that her skin was as white as snow, as smooth as jade, and full of pink and luster, just like the flawless skin of a baby.

"Your thinking is still so narrow-minded, and you are still so arrogant."

As Lilith spoke, she sat down on a chair to the side, her long, shapely legs sticking out, captivating countless men and fueling the jealousy of countless women.

"You're not Lilith! Who are you?!" Mason suddenly asked in a deep voice.

Lilith smiled slightly: "I am indeed not the same Lilith as before. Now I am called Lilith Arkham, and I am the wife of Mayor Arkham."

"How shameless! You're almost fifty, aren't you? You could be his mother." Mason sneered sarcastically.

Lilith wasn't angry. She said calmly, "That's your narrow-minded and superficial thinking. You'll never understand. For someone like Mayor Arkham, time has lost its meaning."

Mason was naturally not provoked by this kind of provocation.

“How did you know I was here?” Mason asked.

She came through the monster at an angle; normally, no one would know that she would suddenly appear here.

Lilith reached out and ran her fingers through her dark hair, saying, "Mason, in the years you've been gone, Arkham is no longer the Arkham you know."

"Times have changed."

Mason sneered after hearing this: "No matter how things change, as long as you have enough power, you can stand at the top."

“Lilith, I witnessed firsthand how you mutated, and I know you even better than you know yourself. Now that you've degraded yourself by marrying that boy, you must be here to deliver a message to Arkham, right?”

Lilith shook her head: "No, the mayor has a lot of things to do. I came here simply because I wanted to."

"I want to see what the guy who looked down on me more than a decade ago looks like now."

As she spoke, Lilith stood up, a smirk playing on her lips, "Looking at you now, you're still that filthy old woman, unchanged. It's quite disappointing."

"You're asking for death!" Mason's tone instantly turned incredibly sinister, and waves of dark energy swirled around her.

"Behave yourself!" Jenny frowned slightly and hissed in a low voice.

She wouldn't allow anyone to disrupt her peaceful life.
