A Hidden Warehouse Outside of Buguera
Inside the dimly lit warehouse, countless drones hovered mid-air, projecting hyper-realistic flames that made the entire space feel like an inferno.
Hum!
Boom!
As more drones came online, a massive horde of fire elementals appeared, wreaking havoc on simulated buildings, their towering forms exuding an aura of destruction.
"Listen up, people—no mistakes tonight!"
Mysterio—Quentin Beck—stood beneath the hovering drones, his expression severe. His sharp gaze swept over his crew as he continued, "No unexpected variables. No interruptions. Tonight, we lay the groundwork for the grand finale."
His voice was laced with urgency. This performance was more than just another illusion—it was a prelude to something greater.
"The birth of a new savior," he declared, his hands gesturing dramatically. "And that savior is me."
He paused, letting the gravity of his words sink in before speaking again.
