Villain: Ultimate Mutation System in the Alternate World

When Reign was finished, he returned to his car and drove away, ignoring the bullet holes dotting its surface.

He had only borrowed it, so he didn't bother checking for damages.

Twenty minutes later, he exited the Slum area and entered another neighborhood, eventually finding a modest two-story home.

With no parking lot available, he parked the car on the side of the road.

CLICK!

Opening the door with the key provided by Delon, he stepped into the clean, albeit sparsely furnished, home.

He scanned the room, noting the lack of personal touches, but it suited his needs perfectly.

Settling onto the sofa, he opened his phone and began methodically selecting items he deemed necessary for the mission.

He spent the points provided by Delon without hesitation, ensuring he had everything he might need until he was fully satisfied with his purchases.

Though he was powerful enough to bulldoze his way inside, Reign aimed to carry out the mission with subtlety, avoiding unnecessary fights.

His goal was to access the virus storage room without raising any alarms.

All the killing would come later when his plan took effect. When that happened, the whole city would plunge into chaos, and he would reap all the benefits in one go.

What he was doing now was planting the seeds first. By sacrificing immediate rewards, he was playing the long game.

'Done,' he thought, clicking the final item for purchase. He would retrieve everything later from the base.

This was one of the perks of having access to the Veiled Nights App—he could acquire items that weren't available for public used.

In addition, he accessed useful information like city maps and other important data.

Unfortunately, when he checked for the blueprint of the facility, there wasn't much available.

The mission was too new, so only the obvious details visible from outside the facility were provided.

Next, he decided to gather useful information about the current military movements within the city.

As expected, the number of combat-ready armed forces was increasing daily.

Other high tier cities were sending more reinforcements to protect this area, as low-tier cities acted as resource nodes for the larger ones.

Unlike High Tier Cities, Tier 4 cities have more open and untouched space.

High Tier Cities, due to overpopulation, use all available land for infrastructure, leading to densely packed environments.

This difference makes Tier 4 cities valuable for resources.

Now fully prepared, he allowed himself a moment of calm before the storm .

One day later : 9:00 pm

From his lookout located among the branches of a distant tree, Reign's eyes scanned the opposite hill using a newly bought Binoculars, where the heavily guarded research facility loomed over the landscape.

Spanning roughly 30,000 square meters wide, the facility resembled more of a fortress than a mere research institute.

His gazed was caught by the imposing walls filled with red laser detection systems on top, ready to detect any intruder stupid enough to approach .

Access was restricted to three points: the main entrance, leading the road to the highway; three helipads providing a landing area; and a heavily fortified entry through the sewer system.

'This place is too secure," he thought to himself, tallying the number of combat-ready security guards armed with advanced rifles and exoskeletons designed to enhance their physical powers.

Alongside the imposing walls and vigilant guards, he spotted anti-air missiles strategically positioned, their presence signaling how tough the defense was in this place.

"Just as expected from a Tier 1 corporation," he mused inwardly

Before coming to the facility, he had gathered intelligence on BioGen Corporation.

Armed with the knowledge of its status in the global business world, he discovered that it was one of the largest corporations in the medical and science industry.

Normally, the Veiled Nights didn't entertain requests against huge corporations.

It was too much of a risk, as these companies could spend billions to make their lives a living hell.

However, Reign received insider information from Delon revealing that BioGen had recently severed ties with the Chamber of Commerce and aligned itself with a rival group of companies, Light Rock Capital.

This strategic move had stirred up conflict, forcing other medical companies from the Chamber to engage in a showdown with BioGen, aiming to set an example and assert their dominance.

A move like this showed the seriousness of the competition between conglomerates, emphasizing that despite the threat of the corrupted, businessmen would always prioritize protecting their own interests first.

But Reign couldn't care less about their corporate drama; he was solely fixated on the viruses within those walls.

His goal: to boost the potency and lethality of his own virus.

He knew his plan depended on a powerful virus. Strengthening it was key.

The virus he possessed was powerful and deadly, but the technology in this world was also advanced.

He remembered his old world, where a virus could be easily countered in just a matter of days, so pandemics no longer existed for decades.

It's clear that in this world, the potential threat of the virus Reign possesses could be mitigated by advanced medical technology.

Back in the present, he began memorizing the patterns of the CCTV cameras as they scanned the place, along with the movement of the spotlights and the routes taken by the security guards.

'This will be a bit hard,' Reign pondered.

His options were limited; he couldn't afford to create too much chaos, as it would jeopardize his future plans.

For his scheme to succeed, he had to ensure that no major incidents occurred in the three days leading up to Aiku's complete possession of Demi's body.

'I'll just bail out if things get dangerous,' Reign decided, pulling a black mask over his fake one to blend better in the night.

Next, his body morphed, shrinking and becoming leaner.

By decreasing his size, he aimed to minimize his visibility even further, adhering to the logic that the smaller he was, the lower the risk of being spotted.

After seeing that he reached his shrinking limit, he began flexing his legs and hands, ensuring he adjusted properly to his new, smaller and leaner body.

This wasn't his first rodeo, so it didn't take long for him to feel comfortable.

'I'm ready,' With a silent exhale, he dropped from the tree branch casually.

As he landed on the ground, he immediately focus his mind on the mission .

Reign's eyes quickly scanned the highway road ahead, ensuring it was clear of any approaching vehicles.

Satisfied, he sprang into action, crossing the highway and heading toward a less fortified section of the wall. He decided against the sewer entrance since it would be too cramped and easier for security to spot him.

He avoided moving in a straight line, opting a more round about manner to minimize the risk of being spotted.

With each step, he remained vigilant, scanning the ground for any irregularities that might indicate the presence of hidden landmines.

The last thing he needed was a loud explosion, which would surely alert everyone and jeopardize his meticulously planned infiltration.

Approaching the wall, his sharp eyes caught sight of the laser grid above.

He knew that as long as he avoided touching those beams of light, he should be safe from detection.

'Let's do it,' he mumbled to himself while estimating the height of the wall and the distance needed to vault over it.
