"Zen, Anne has great potential. If you train her, she will become a great force for HORNET. The stronger we are, the more human lives we can save!" said Henry, trying to convince Zen."Tsk!" Zen snorted and turned around, walking irritably towards the exit."Where are you going, Zen?""Assign someone else to be the babysitter! I only want the extermination mission! I still have plenty of business with those monster bastards!"Zen walked haughtily out of the room, leaving a dizzy Henry clutching his forehead.On the other place, Sisca dragged Anne into an interrogation room. Then she left the blonde woman with a man with a sinister face and thick beard. He had three monster nail marks on his cheeks.Gordon Reinhart was the full name of the big man. He was known for being very strict in following the HORNET rules. He was the one who explained to everyone who joined HORNET how important it was to follow the rules for their safety. This includes disciplining people who act out. Rumour has
The woman looked at James with a horrified smile. James didn't like it at all. Her smile reminded him of his parents' smile when they turned into monsters. A smile from someone who intended to hurt him."HORNET will give you extra protection and lots of money! All you have to do is lie down and follow the scientists' procedures, then-""No! I don't want to!" James cut her off.She furrowed her brow, "You have to listen to me first-""Enough! I don't want that position! I don't want to be considered a tool by HORNET!"The smile on the woman's face disappeared, and she realized that her words had scared this new person. She leaned her back against the chair and sighed."I'm sorry, I must have scared you. Let me tell you, my name is Giselle. You can relax now," Giselle said softly.James was already suspicious of Giselle. He kept his suspicious gaze on Giselle."Anne, the person who just joined HORNET, which division is she in?" James asked."Anne? Are you referring to the blonde woman w
James was so surprised he had to fight even two days after he almost died from the fight. Axel took a few steps back, then picked up a wooden sword, a straight sword of medium size."Y-you can take the weapon behind you," Axel said in his typical stammering style, similar to a mentally unwell person. He swung the wooden sword a few times to gauge its weight.James looked back, seeing a variety of wooden weapons. He walked over to them, and he also touched them. All the weapons were very unfamiliar to him. James didn't find any projectile weapons at all. Everything was just melee weapons."No pistol or crossbow models?" asked James, still looking for projectile weapons among the wood."Y-you won't find any, James. The training weapons in this place are only melee weapons," replied Axel, walking to the centre of the room.James scratched his head. He had never used a weapon before. Of course, choosing a weapon would be difficult for him. He didn't know what weapon would suit him and mat
The medical room was a lonely place in NEST. The people here preferred to use regenerator serum instead of treating them manually. Even the medical staff here provided more regenerator serum than medical supplies. Most people just came in, injected the serum, and slept elsewhere.Thea, the ponytailed female medic, handed a shot of regenerator serum to James, who was applying ointment to his bruise."You, just use this, your body will soon heal as before without any major risks. You will only feel sleepy," she said kindly.James shook his head as he smiled kindly back at Thea."No, I've had enough of this," he replied as he showed the ointment.Thea shrugged her shoulders, then returned the serum to its original place."Though it would be easier if you used the serum. It's rare for a HORNET to use the manual method like you.""I had a bad experience using that thing. I'll just use the traditional way to avoid the same thing happening," James replied.Thea realized that James was the ne
Anne still doubted Sisca's words. James had no basis in fighting, surely he would find it difficult to train like Anne was doing now. "James will get beat up." The blonde woman said with a frivolous smile. Sisca took a regenerator serum from her pocket. "You're the same way, battered. Catch this!" Sisca threw the serum and Anne caught it. Anne looked at the object in her hand, then furrowed her brows. She felt that it shouldn't be used on small wounds like this. The woman wearing a white sports bra pocketed the serum, not intending to use it. Sisca surprised to see that. "Why aren't you using it? I dare to beat you up because i brought that serum for you. You need to use it to get better!" Sisca protested. The sexy woman in front of Sisca only replied with a small, haughty smile. Instead, she returned to her boxing stance. "That serum would be very useful in a dangerous situation. Wouldn't it be a shame to use it on this small wound?" She said. Sisca tapped her own forehead, s
Axel chuckled mysteriously. He laughed as he continued to crouch down and stare at the tiny ants walking hand in hand. To Henry, it bothered him a lot."You're not planning anything bad, are you?" asked Henry suspiciously.Axel glared at the ants and chuckled even louder. He then killed the ants one by one by squeezing them with his index finger. Honestly, it was not a comfortable sight for Henry."L-little ants. Destroyed! D-dead!" he said with satisfaction.Henry felt a tense aura from Axel. This wasn't the only time he had behaved like this. He crouched down."You don't have to kill those innocent ants, Axel." Henry held Axel's wrist. Making the man become quiet. Axel was a person with mild down syndrome, so he sometimes had the thoughts of a child. But he wasn't a weird person, he had the power to produce a liquid full of bacteria like Komodo dragon’s saliva, it came from the sweat on Axel’s palms. As a fighter, Axel is extremely dangerous if he is already using a sharp weapon. H
Eight o'clock in the morning is when the NEST residents have breakfast. Inside the large room, about 400 people eat every day. Although HORNET has more than 900 members, most of them still mingle outside with the monsters to gather information and look for other superhumans to rescue. The others monitor their movements from inside the NEST and are ready to send help when a member sends a distress signal.James grabbed some bread and cappuccino for breakfast this morning. It had been ten days since he had eaten the same thing for breakfast. The other HORNET members looked at him and smiled down at him. However, James didn't care at all. He continued to leisurely devour his bread.The reason why people smiled down at him was because James had various bruises on his face from his strenuous training with Axel. He was considered a freak for refusing to use the regenerator serum. Almost everyone in the room knew James, the strongman who didn't need a regenerator."Hey handsome, can I sit h
Owen patted James' shoulder several times. He tried to calm the shaken man down."James, they'll be fine as long as they don't know the identities of the monsters. You don't have to worry about them for now," Owen said.James shook his head. He didn't feel that way. He recalled the time at work when someone died just because they accidentally saw the scales of a monster.A chill ran down James' chest. He quickly turned around and walked quickly out. Owen immediately panicked. He came out from behind the storefront and grabbed James' hand."No James! Don't! Trust me, they'll be fine out there! You can't leave NEST unless you're ready!" Owen prevented as he reassured James.James glared at Owen."Let go, Owen!" James let go of Owen's hand and walked steadfastly towards the exit."James!" called Owen, but James didn't care. Everyone in the room was watching them, as they seemed to be arguing.Anne sensed that something was wrong, she quickly finished her milk and walked over to Owen who
"Mother Grizzly's telekinesis can only be used on one object. When she is using telekinesis, she will choose to avoid attacks rather than fight with telekinesis. Right now Mother is using telekinesis to make herself levitate. She can't move on her own because she has no legs now, meaning she can only rely on her physical strength to fight you, James," Sasha explained with a grin.Mother pouted in annoyance. "Even knowing the secret of my power won't allow you to defeat me, Sasha! You were wrong to hope for this human!"James himself was not in a good place. He was extremely frustrated that he had failed to help his friend again. He was so stressed out, he was beating his own forehead with his hand and yelling. "Stupid! Stupid! Damn it!" he swore repeatedly."Even humans are crazy, Sasha. Your hopes are dashed!" Mother chuckled.As James could no longer bear the weight on his shoulders, he ran towards Mother Grizzly and unleashed a punch. Mother Grizzly blocked it with her hand, but it
James didn't hesitate to lunge at him. But after just a few steps, his body suddenly became immobilized. Then his body was thrown to the side until it hit the wall. The supernatural impulse was so strong that the wall broke."When I wear this form, my telekinesis ability increases dramatically. Humans like you are just like insects before my power," Mother Grizzly said, belittling James.While they fought, Lisa quietly led the badly injured Anne back outside the room. Feeling far enough away, Lisa took out the only remaining regenerator serum liquid. "Relax, Anne. You'll survive," she said as she fished the serum out of her shirt pocket.Anne's hands held Lisa back from injecting the liquid. "Don't... our fight isn't over yet," Anne gently refused.Lisa frowned instead. "Anne! You're hurt badly!"Instead of ignoring Lisa, Anne forced herself to stand up. "James is a terrible person. He'll be overwhelmed if he's alone!" said Anne as she walked back towards the battleground. "Besides, t
James couldn't help but think that the monster in front of him was out of his mind. He would do anything to fulfill his ambition, even to involve a child like this. James hates them because they kill. James hated Mother Grizzly for using a child, even James hated himself for having the heart of an Unchegila.As Mother laughed in satisfaction, suddenly a sword slid out and stabbed the child, sending him flying into the wall. With Mother Grizzly's eyes turned slowly and trembling, she saw the child hanging from the sword stuck in the wall. The child's heart was stabbed and he seemed to be convulsing in pain. In less than five seconds, the boy stopped moving.James, the only human still conscious felt a rush of emotions. His chest felt tight and his breath came in gasps at the heinous scene. He turned to the one who had thrown the sword. The only person who did not want Mother's ambition to be achieved even if she was a monster: Sasha."Asshole!" James immediately ran and unleashed a str
"Jack, beat them. If you do, then you'll get more power than me," Mother Grizzly said casually."What do you mean, Mother?" Jack began to worry about Mother Grizzly's wishes after she revealed her goal.Mother Grizzly glanced at him sarcastically. "You still don't understand? You have two choices. You will perish at my hands or help me create the perfect creature to replace humans. If you help me, then I will give you more abilities that can make you my right hand. However, if you turn against me, then I will give you a painful death," Mother explained.Jack stepped forward by forming four fireballs above his head. "Isn't the answer obvious, I will defend you. Even if you want to replace the current generation of Unchegila, but I still can't do anything in front of you."Sasha stood up and turned to James. "Ghost, no, James Winter. I know it's a little annoying, but we have to work together for a while. They intend to kill us and take our organs. Help me kill Mother!" she said coldly.
Lisa fell to her knees while covering her mouth. Her trembling eyes could not hold back the tears that spilled out. Anne couldn't believe what she was seeing either. She took two steps back. And the most surprised was James.James' heart was beating so fast that it felt like it was going to explode. He couldn't bear to see so many corpses in that big room, and all of them were human. The bodies of their friends were no longer intact and were lying there. There were even a lot of pieces of human bodies from HORNET that were already very difficult to recognize.Unconsciously, James' laser eyes became active. His eyes glowed red and focused. He wanted to immediately finish off the mastermind who had killed his friends. "ARE YOU THE ONE KILLED THEM, HUH?!" said James angrily.All the Unchegila in the room were surprised by James' presence. Sasha, Jack, and even Mother were stunned to see the figure in black armor and flaming eyes."Apparently that's the reason why you're so strong..." Sas
"Sasha, you are an Unchegila with human logic. You are almost perfect. All your actions, the way you obtain information, the way you learn, all indicate that you are a person capable of replacing humans. Unfortunately, you cannot learn human emotions well. You cannot know many human emotions including happiness. Intelligent people who lack kindness will only create a generation that kills and destroys each other. Then, what's the point of that? But Martin, he has a lower learning ability than you. But he can feel various human emotions, so he can influence other people's feelings. Unchegila wants to make everyone around her happy," Mother Grizzly explained as she approached Sasha.When she was in front of Sasha, she brought her mouth to the beautiful red-haired woman's ear. "So, do you know what I need to do to create the perfect generation?"Sasha glanced sharply at the old woman. Mother Grizzly grimaced and chuckled as she returned to her seat. "Of course I have to do experiments, r
Sasha threw a smoke bomb into the center of the room, then quickly put on her goggles. The explosion of the smoke grenade spread throughout the room, even to the children and Unchegila."Everyone, close your eyes!" Lois exclaimed as she covered her eyes."Asshole! He's after us too!" cursed Jack as he closed his eyes tightly.Moloch wailed as he felt the pain in his eyes. He covered his eyes with the palms of his hands, but the smoke was already making his eyes hurt. The monster struggled to open his eyes again as water kept coming out of his eyes.Moloch slammed his fist on the floor to the point that the floor cracked. "You bitch! Use all your strength! Why are you using the techniques of the humans instead?!" he exclaimed in annoyance.From a distance, Sasha aimed a gun at Moloch's head. "Sorry Moloch, you're still too stupid to fight me," Sasha said with a smirk.Two shots were fired by Sasha. The bullets traveled at a very high speed, then hit the side of Moloch's head. The monst
"Hey! Stop you guys!" James exclaimed while carrying Michael Hubble's corpse. The red-scaled Unchegila all turned to him and were wide-eyed. They shook in disbelief at what they saw."Mr. Michael... how could...," whimpered a thin Unchegila. He fell to his knees in disbelief, even shedding tears.James lit up his eyes, he wanted to intimidate these monsters. "You will leave or I will annihilate you!" James shouted an order.The Unchegila simultaneously changed into their human form. They looked at each other. "Those eyes..."It's my laser eyes all over again. What exactly do they mean? James' mind was troubled."Alright, we'll leave and not bother you anymore. We have your smell in mind, Ghost," one of them said firmly.Without caring about Michael Hubble's corpse, they walked away from the place towards the city. They walked with their heads down as if they had lost hope. Resigned to the future. There was only one Unchegila still standing there. Wordlessly, he sprinted toward the Ti
"Kuh!" Anne fell to her knees in exhaustion. This sexy woman pulled out her sharp iron hand from the head of an Unchegila she had just killed. Out of the 10 Unchegila that attacked them, Anne and Lisa were able to keep up and kill three of them. Anne's martial arts skills gave her an edge over the Unchegila who had only learned martial arts in a short time. However, the power and physical strength of these two women were no match for the Unchegila. If any of these red-scaled Unchegila attacked them at close range again, they could be injured."Damn it! I'm exhausted just from facing three of them!" complained Anne while trying to stand up. "What about James?""I don't know, I'm busy here!" replied Lisa while busy throwing beads at the Unchegila. The explosions from the beads caused the surroundings of the monsters to be filled with smoke.James himself was still fighting with Michael and the two skinny Unchegila. James was overwhelmed by the two skinny Unchegila because of their fast
