---------

In the deep night of Dream City, a maiden in a maid's outfit walks alone quietly in an alley, as if on her way home.

The neon lights from the skyscrapers above scatter down, elongating the lonely shadow of the girl.

This girl is 86, the key to attracting the serial killer through emitting a "servant machine" signal fluctuation, a task 86 found easy after deep interactions with a servant machine like Control Number One in Dream Zero.

Now, 86 not only mimics a servant machine herself but also amplifies her "servant machine" signal significantly to increase efficiency.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Renji, hidden in the dark, notices a shadow swiftly moving across the building opposite, rapidly approaching.

Every time this shadow flickers past an area, the lights there flicker and go out as if malfunctioning, giving a chilling sensation akin to a horror movie.

The shadow's target is clear - the solitary 86 in the alley. She quickly jumps down from the building, landing under the streetlight in front of 86, which promptly goes out, plunging the surroundings into darkness, and then,

*Clang!*

A loud clash and the sparks from high-speed metal friction brighten the dark alley for a moment,

Renji sees 86 has turned her hands into steel blades, and facing her, with hands weaponized into gleaming cold bayonets, engaging in close combat, is undoubtedly the serial killer.

Upon seeing the killer's appearance, Renji was stunned, not only because she looked very similar to 86, but he also felt a sense of familiarity, as if he had seen her before.

As 86 begins to grapple with the killer, Renji finally recognizes the source of this familiarity.

It was the maid who impersonated 86 in the "trap dream" set by the Old Alliance!

'So, the killer is with the Old Alliance?'

From what Bal had revealed, the Old Alliance has its representatives in various countries, with Bal, a werewolf, representing the Dragon Nation. For the Mechanical Alliance, the likelihood of it being cyborgs or a Robot is high.

On Kael Square, the gangsters who launched a terror attack using the Tainted Miasma had a control over the Miasma that gangs shouldn't possess, plus, during a casual conversation with William, the Old Alliance was mentioned again.

Putting together various clues, it's very likely that the crisis of Dream Zero and the Old Alliance are inseparably connected.

However,

'What is their purpose?'

'Like Bal, is it to take revenge on "Them"?'

'Instead of guessing here, the best way is to capture the serial killer, and then everything will be known, which was my original plan'

From the current stalemate, it's apparent that the serial killer's strength is a bit more formidable than expected, actually on par with 86, who is at the peak of the "Danger Rank."

Unfortunately, for an Eclipse, status strength is one part; the other part includes skills and brands.

As Renji steps out from behind the scenes, activating his power and triggering the "armor" ability on 86, the Mech of the Bright Leftover Woman, which appeared at the press conference in Kael Square a few days ago, reappears.

This time, however, it's a mini version.

The characteristic of mechanical species is observational learning, so they don't comprehend skills on their own like Eileen but acquire empty skill slots, the so-called "Classic" vacancies.

The Witch's Brand couldn't be used after summoning Suthia, but 86 had already copied the ability, which in mechanical terms, is etched into the "Pseudo-Classic."

Although it's a knockoff "Pseudo-Bright Leftover Woman," it's more than enough to deal with the current serial killer.

When seeing 86 transforming into a mecha armor and then being entered by a human, the face of the serial killer across shows extreme shock.

Clearly, unlike those low-emotion quotient servant machine in Dream Zero, as a wrong BUG, she possesses a very rich emotional system.

[Impossible]

[Humans cannot possibly breach our]

[Target confirmed, the mecha has been defiled, execute the destruction command]

[Filthy humans, come out from her body!]

The serial killer, in the end, seems to heat up directly, her eyes emitting dangerous red light, her energy furnace inside quickly operating, activating the killing mode at maximum power.

Unfortunately, this time the serial killer encounters Renji controlling the Bright Leftover Woman to place the large shield in front, her dual blades simply cannot break through the holy shield. Then, Renji raises the mech's cross sword towards the sky, and in the next moment, the summoned holy light directly descends from the sky, covering the serial killer like a flood.

The serial killer clearly did not expect that the mech, instead of using bullets and lightsabers, would attack with special abilities. Her energy shield could defend against physical damage, but was helpless against the holy light.

Under the flood of holy light, the serial killer was forced to kneel on the ground, as if a powerful faith prevented her from standing straight, forcing her into a praying posture towards the holy light.

In the next moment, the defenseless serial killer, kneeling on the ground, was grabbed by Renji's mechanical hand. The serial killer struggled, but in the face of the strong grip of the Bright Leftover Woman, there was no way to escape.

Afterward, Renji, holding the serial killer with one hand, aimed the cross sword at her chest with the other.

*Whoosh!*

After stabbing the cross sword fiercely, this was not to kill her but a means to restrain the serial killer.

Under 86's control, the cross sword acted more like a USB virus. Once stabbed, the serial killer's body immediately seemed to have its circuits scrambled, sparking electricity everywhere.

[Damned human]

[Warning! Warning! Limb module error! Action module failure! Core power system damaged, entering low power mode]

The serial killer's body began to report errors non-stop. When Renji finally released his mechanical grip, the serial killer collapsed to the ground, limp and powerless, similar to a human injected with full-body anesthesia, conscious but almost unable to move.

This non-threatening state of the serial killer was exactly what Renji wanted.

After disengaging 86's Holy Mech, Renji took the paralyzed serial killer back to the safe house and began the interrogation.

….

The first thing he naturally asked was,

"Do you still recognize me?"

The serial killer did not answer but expressed defiance with her stubborn eyes, which was in a way an indirect answer; she did not recognize him.

Indeed, judging from the rich emotions the serial killer displayed, not inferior to humans, she was indeed different from the fake 86 in the previous dream.
