"Aish. Shit." Jansen's breath caught in his throat as he looked at the blood oozing from his wrist. Jansen tried to remove the chip device that was about to be inserted into his wrist. From the slightly open incision wound, Jansen tried to pull out the chip device that had not been fully installed. He clearly knew this chip device was deliberately used by Frank to control him. "Argh!" Jansen let out a small groan when the chip was completely removed. The cut on his wrist was still open. The blood flowed quite heavily until Jansen tried to cover it with the palm of his right hand. "How am I supposed to cover this blood?" muttered Jansen, looking around the restroom. Jansen was now in a staff-only restroom that didn't have many cubicles. He had just escaped from some Black Warrior members who were chasing him. Unfortunately at that time Jansen did not find anything to impede the flow of blood from his wrist. "Shit. Why is Frank doing this?!" muttered an exasperated Jansen. Now
Jansen let out a long exasperated breath. Not wanting to stall for time, Jansen then folded the long clothes in his hands. After that, he put it on his upper body and tied it to the back of his neck so it wouldn't slip off. Jansen turned around, looking at his exposed back through the mirror. "At least I'm not walking around with my front body exposed," Jansen said with resignation. Jansen stepped out of the toilet room. He moved slowly as he looked around. He made sure there were no Black Warrior members around. After feeling that everything was safe, Jansen walked quickly down the hallway. Just as Jansen was about to turn the corner, he heard footsteps. "Mr. Frank says there's someone among the trainees he's really interested in. He's different than the other trainees." "Really? You mean, the one Mr. Frank brought to the testing room?" "Yes. That trainee really has unusual strength. He can even kill half-human monsters, and has a strong immunity in his body." Janse
"Isn't this one of the participants who has achieved the highest points in the training center?" Since the last battle against the half-human parasite monster, Jansen's name was instantly recognized by almost all the training members. Now Jansen walked with Ryann and Joseph to the cafeteria of the training center building. From the moment he stepped into the cafeteria, Jansen had noticed that all eyes were on him. It was as if they were astonished to see someone who had managed to kill a total of one rather terrifying monster. Now, just as Jansen was about to devour his food, someone arrived. A man with a fairly burly and muscular body. Jansen recognized him as the senior gang leader of The Chosen People. "What brings you to our table?" asked Joseph, who looked annoyed. Jansen didn't look back and still tried to leisurely devour his food. He didn't really care about the presence of the man named Charlie. "I didn't expect you to be brave enough to show up at The Chosen Peop
"Ah, shit..."Jansen walked backwards with a dumbfounded expression on his face. His entire body froze watching the figure of a man staring at him intently. The form of the man beside him was human, but Jansen saw that both his hands were covered in sleeves. Jansen already felt an uncomfortable feeling. His mind pictured the half-human parasitic monster in Mr. Frank's room a few hours ago. "No one is allowed to wander around during the late hours of the night. Rules are rules," said the stranger beside Jansen. The stranger's tone implied a small growl. Although his gaze was intense, there was still a calmness to it. "I didn't do anything. I just accidentally saw this room," Jansen replied awkwardly. "Go away. Don't let me forcibly evict you," the man retorted threateningly. Jansen did not move immediately. He held his hands low as he watched the man in front of him from the ground up. At that moment Jansen's curiosity was somehow drawn to the two arms of the man in front of h
"Jansen, are you okay?" Jansen was still trying to calm himself down after the fight that happened a few moments ago. While on his right side, there was a male nurse treating a wide cut on his right shoulder. Jansen was now in a special treatment room in the organization's training center building. Actually, Jansen was still quite shocked because he was facing another type of human monster. Jansen also didn't expect that The Strong People group would trap him. "Ah, I guess you're not okay," said Matthew who immediately sighed heavily after realizing the wide slash wound on his right shoulder. "Hey, why did you come here?" asked Ryann in a sarcastic tone. "You're from The Strong People group. Doesn't your group feel superior to us?" Matthew turned an exasperated gaze towards Ryann. Although he was actually annoyed, he couldn't argue with Ryann's words. What Jansen experienced was indeed true due to the actions of the members of The Strong People group. "Don't be like that to Ma
"Hey, why are you suspecting me?" Jansen said with a chuckle. Trying to create an atmosphere that wasn't awkward. Matthew, Ryann, and Joseph were still watching Jansen curiously. As if they wanted to find out whether Jansen was lying or not. "Matthew, you met me in the tunnel. You know best that I couldn't possibly know Mr. Frank, when we come from different neighborhoods," Jansen said later, trying to be convincing. "I don't even know where you're from, Jansen," Matthew retorted. His hands were already folded in front of his chest. Jansen let out an exasperated sigh after hearing Matthew's words. "But if you think about it logically, Mr. Frank is very busy taking care of the organization and the training base. Besides, his age is so different from mine, how do we know each other?" Jansen asked. "Alright, let's stop this conversation. If anyone overhears us talking about Mr. Frank and there's a misunderstanding, we could get punished," Joseph retorted. Seeing Joseph's very cau
"What are you looking for, Richard?" asked Jansen as he watched Richard tracing one book after another with his index finger. Richard was still mumbling and smiling as he watched his index finger move through the books one by one. His face looked very serious as if he was thinking about something. "You know, Jansen, I've actually read about the history of the Parasitic Creature Eradication Organization," Richard replied. Jansen frowned with a surprised expression. When he heard Richard's answer, there was a slight sense of concern that arose. But he pretended not to think anything of it. "So, what did you find?" asked Jansen. Richard's gaze shifted to Jansen. A smile that implied a curved meaning. "Very interesting. I didn't expect that the person who started this organization had disappeared for so many years," Richard said. The direction of Richard's conversation was predictable to Jansen. The nervousness Jansen felt increased slightly, making him feel uncomfortable. M
[WARNING! SYSTEM DETECTS DANGER!] [VIRUS MONSTERS ARE WITHIN YOUR IMMEDIATE RANGE RADIUS!]Jansen closed his eyes after reading the system notification that appeared. Amidst the silence in the room, the sound of footsteps being dragged echoed. All of his goosebumps were already bristling. By now, Jansen and Richard were hiding in the gap between two tall bookshelves on opposite sides. Richard was in the bookcase gap on Jansen's left side. While in the middle of them, there was a path that was enough for three people to pass through. A few moments ago, Jansen and Richard were in a hurry to find a bookshelf that had a small gap in the room. In this room, there were indeed a number of bookshelves - which were so big - that had a small space. Luckily, Jansen and Richard were near the corner of the room. 'GRRR...' Jansen's breath caught even more at the sound of the growling that was slowly approaching. It was certain that the parasitic monster that came was in a close radius to his
"What did they do to regenerate a monster virus like that?" muttered Jansen. He suspected that the organization was conducting experiments to create new virus regeneration during his disappearance. Jansen instantly regretted that he had run into the tunnel. He should still be in the past, not in a destroyed future like the one he was in now. "Hey, it's weird that I hear monsters, but there are no monsters in Mr. Frank's room?" Matthew asked. Jansen's face turned surprised. Again, he considered the hesitation of saying that a half-human monster parasite was in Frank's room. Even worse, being Frank's personal guard. "You didn't see any monster?" Jansen baited Matthew. Matthew shook his head. "You saw it, Matthew. The two men guarding the right and left sides of Mr. Frank's throne are a new type of parasitic monster," Jansen replied. *** [YOU'VE COMPLETED TWO MISSIONS TODAY!] [NEW MISSION ALERT!] [Come to the secret document room and find out what Frank is hiding]
"Hey! You're nothing if it wasn't for me helping you out! Don't you remember who gave you the money so that you can enjoy all the luxurious facilities?!" Jarco coughed in pain. His face was already haggard, showing the pain he was enduring. Now he really couldn't put up a fight. After saying that, Frank then squatted down to look at Jarco in disgust. Frank noticed Jarco's battered condition from the face down. Jarco's clothes were tattered and messy. "Hey, you also enjoyed everything that resulted from my experiment, asshole. Why are you acting like a hero now, huh?" Frank asked. Jarco already looked pitiable as he realized his own condition. His face seemed to be grimacing as he held back tears. "You were talking about my promise to help you find your family? Don't you know that your family is dead?" asked Frank in an offensive tone. Jarco was immediately wide-eyed with surprise. Slowly, his face changed to show anger and worry. "What did you say?" asked Jarco. "
Suddenly Jansen stepped back and avoided the two outstretched hands of the half-human monster man looking for prey. But at that moment he felt he couldn't hold his breath any longer. While dodging, Jansen spontaneously let out a long breath. So that the half-human monster man looked right at him. "SMELL HUMAN!" Then, right at that moment, the half-human monster man's amputated hand suddenly became extremely long, stretched out and stabbed the wall next to where Jansen was. Jansen's body instantly stiffened at the sight of the tip of the man's hand, which had many sharp thorns and was as thick as ivory, in the shape of a circle stuck in the wall. Jansen imagined if those thorns pierced his body. "WHO DARES TO ENTER THIS SECRET ROOM?!" The man raised his tone. Jansen was still frozen where he stood, gulping his saliva to neutralize his choked throat. Jansen immediately turned his gaze to Richard who was already moving quickly towards the half-human monster man. Richard
[You must carry out the mission given, Jansen] [Any questions that are confusing to you are in a secret document. No one has ever searched the room where the document is located, nor has anyone found it] Jansen frowned. "Are the secret documents Frank kept the ones he stole from me?" [Correct.] "Ah, it turns out that he hid the document," replied Jansen who exhaled a rough breath. Jansen already wanted to open the door to his dorm room. But the door suddenly opened first. Two men who were very unfamiliar to Jansen appeared. They had scrambled into the room while holding tote bags, but then saw Jansen's figure. "Oh, hey," said one of the men with an awkward smile. "I'm your roommate, Joseph." "And I'm Ryann. Hey, pull over, I want to come in and get the top bunk!" said the man named Ryann. Jansen sighed heavily. He was fed up with two strangers acting this silly. "I want to leave the room. It's better if one of you gives in," Jansen shot back at them in exasp
"Do you think you've run far enough, Mr. Jansen?" Jansen stiffened at the sound of that voice. He looked to the side and saw a shadowy silhouette from a few meters away. The dark atmosphere made it impossible for him to see clearly. "Who are you?" asked Jansen, starting to feel wary. The sound of footsteps scraping the asphalt could be heard as the silhouette drew closer to Jansen. "Hey, who are you?" Then came a sardonic laugh. "Too bad it's going to be bad for you, Mr. Jansen. You've tried to be the best CEO you can be," the voice said later. DOR! Right after the words were heard, Jansen groaned as he felt a bullet pierce one of his legs. Jansen fell after a second bullet pierced his leg again. As Jansen felt the bleeding on his leg, he saw someone dressed in black standing nearby. BRAK! Something slammed into Jansen's head causing a dizzy sensation. His vision blurred, making it impossible for him to see who the person standing next to him was. "Say goodbye to your comp
"Jansen, it's impossible for someone to feel what a cloth person feels if they've never experienced it," Matthew replied. "That's right. I did experience it," Jansen said. "What?" "Betrayed trust. Haven't you ever felt that?" asked Jansen. Matthew nodded his head with a mocking laugh. "Of course I have, Jansen. If I hadn't experienced that, I might not have formed the personality I have now," Matthew explained casually. "What have you experienced?" asked Jansen. "Do you remember the monster hunter team I had before going with you to the training base?" Matthew asked, his tone as if preparing to tell a story. Jansen nodded his head. His sitting position automatically changed to face Matthew out of curiosity to hear his friend's story. "One of the team members who suddenly wanted to look great and have better skills than the others, he pushed another team member-my friend-while fighting monsters," Matthew said, starting his story. "We were supposed to hide s
"Why are you so tense, Jansen? After all, I already know you're young, the same age as me. Meanwhile, this organization has been around for 50 years," Richard replied. Seeing Richard laughing made Jansen feel a little relieved. Jansen also laughed so that the atmosphere between them was not as tense as before. "You're right. I also didn't know that the person who started this organization had disappeared," said Jansen. He deliberately lied to strengthen his theatrics. Richard nodded his head while stuffing both hands into his pants pockets. He seemed to think for a moment. "No one knows how the face of the originator of the organization disappeared," Richard replied. "Maybe it's because the organization covered up the case of the missing person. Or..." "Organizations do want their originators to be unknown to anyone. It is possible that the originator of this organization is someone who has created something great, but the organization does not want to acknowledge his me
Jansen tried to expend all his strength to kick the tentacle's hand. Unfortunately, his body was immediately thrown to the side so that he hit the wall of the room. "Argh," Jansen immediately groaned with pain. Jansen's position lay limp. He watched as the half-human monster man walked over. As his steps approached Jansen, his tentacle arms loosened briefly. "I told you about the rules of this place, but you didn't listen," the man said irritably. Jansen coughed and tried to take in oxygen with a tight chest. He forced his body to get up, but he fell back limp. [WARNING! YOU HAVE 400 HEALTH POINTS LEFT!] [MINIMUM HEALTH POINT LIMIT: 100/1,000] "I really hate dissident humans like you. You must be punished-ARRGHH!" When the man suddenly cried out in pain, Jansen immediately gasped in surprise. Jansen was stunned to see that another man had come to stab the half-human monster in the back. Jansen frowned when he saw the man who seemed to be a training member smiling at hi
"Why would you consider? Was what I did to save you not enough?" Richard asked the question in an urgent tone. Jansen immediately jerked his hand slightly to avoid being restrained by Richard. He looked at Richard seriously for the umpteenth time. "You should know, I need you to convince me more about whether you are who the two officers say you are or not," Jansen said firmly. Richard exhaled with a look on his face that was beginning to look unhinged. "What you should be thinking is what evidence can they accuse me of being a murderer?" asked Richard. "You can do anything for it-after all, you're the senior trainee with the highest score, fighting thousands of monsters," Jansen replied. Without waiting for Richard's words, Jansen resumed his steps. Jansen suddenly didn't feel like doing the mission the system had given him. His feelings were already very doubtful if there was Richard beside him. As a result, Jansen now turns his steps in the direction he came from a f
