"Ummm... Do I supposed to know them?"
"Well, fuck you. Don't talk to me."
Tyron looked speechlessly at the guy, who suddenly got angry because he didn't know the group. 'Are they that famous?'
...
"This monster really killed a lot. And seeing the states of the body shows how the monster hate human so much." Anthony caressed his chin and began to analyze the monster and the environment. "This monster definitely wasn't a natural born but a man-made!"
Gregory, who heard this, unconsciously raised his eyebrows. "What do you mean by that? How can a man create something like this??"
"Well, not entirely sure. Just my speculation. First, it was a humanoid creature. Second, it looks like something that came out of the laboratory, a result of mutation. Which also explains why it hates humans. Third, it's not like the monsters in the wild or danger zones. But more similar to the monsters from the secret realm. And we know that monsters from secret realms can't really enter our world. And lastly, it can speak like a human, but it just has a different set of voice structures. This means that it might be a human that got experimented on and became like this! What's worse, there might be an organization right there trying to produce a monster like this!"
HISS!
Gregory and Michael gasped as they heard Anthony's speculation. They felt unbelievable how Anthony can come up with such a sound conclusion in just a short amount of time.
Even Fein, who was silent, couldn't help but glance. It flabbergasted him how close Anthony's conclusion was to the truth. Except for the involvement of some unknown organization, the rest of the point was right.
"Do you mean that this monster is also a human? And there's a group behind the scene that might mass-produce monsters like this one?" Gregory took a deep breath as he tried to process his thoughts.
"One is already horrible enough. If there are really more of them, then it would be a world crisis that might bring an apocalypse! If that's so. We have to stop this organization from achieving its goal!" Michael clenched his fist.
He didn't want more people to die. He can even barely control himself right now after he saw the pile of corpses.
Michael looks calm, but it was only due to his excellent self-control. Investigators like him had been trained like an agent and controlling and keeping their emotions in check is one of the fundamentals that they have to master or learn.
"Guy's chill. There's no evidence yet that there is really an organization behind it. Just like I said. It's just my little speculation. Who knew? It can also be its awakening didn't go right." Anthony smiled.
"Hmmm... That's also possible. Mutations from ability awakening might not be common, but it's also not rare." Gregory heave a sigh of relief as he thought of this.
After all, just the thought of an organization capable of creating monsters that can transform and devour creatures to grow fast was scary. Gregory prefers to not think about it.
'Hmmm? Did he discover my true identity?? But how?' Brick Norty, who was about to lunge towards Ranger's Eye saw Fein's sudden change of demeanor and made him stop. 'Well, that's good then. Feel guilty!'
Then he turned his head to the other three with Fein. When he saw Gregory, a smirk appeared on his lips. He still has an unfinished business that he has to finish, and that finished Gregory's life! But when he saw Michael beside Gregory, Brick Norty felt like he ate shit. As for the other guy with glasses. He doesn't have a clue about him. 'Fucker! I won't let you escape this time. You will for interfering with my meal.'

Brick Norty ran towards the Ranger's Eye direction. Both of his arms morphed into a black blade filled with a dark mist in the process. With his every step, his feet would create a deep, small pit on the ground.
"Hey, hey, hey... This monster is too impatient. I'm off then. I won't be able to help much with my strength. But I will try to analyze the monster's weakness once you fight, so I can be useful." Anthony ran towards the group of civilians. He knew that he would just die if he tried to fight the monster. And his abilities might just prove ineffective to a monster that was four ranks higher than him.
Gregory became solemn at this moment. He already experiences firsthand how strong the monster was and he almost die in a short time of that confrontation. "Michael, be careful. This monster could transform into any beast."
Michael nodded his head. 'Shadow Physique!'
Suddenly, Michael's body turned black like a shadow. His facial features, such as eyes, nose, and mouth, disappeared. Only darkness could be seen. Even the clothes on Michael's body were covered in shadows.
If one looks at Michael, one would only see a shadow silhouette. Shadow Physique turns Michael into a shadow entity. Completely immune to physical damage and can move as fast as shadows and smoothly use his other shadow abilities.
Of course, he can't also attack while in the state of Shadow Physique. After all, he's just a shadow. And he didn't have the ability to exert force to make an effective punch.
As his thoughts ended, he saw the monster's arm blade appear on his neck. But Michael didn't dodge.
So, under the eyes of everyone, the blade just passed through Michael's shadow body.
The monster didn't expect this to happen. Then he saw he felt something creep up and bound his hand like a chain. When he turned his head down, he saw his feet and his arms locked in a shadow chain that came from his own shadow!
"Don't underestimate the power of shadows!" Michael canceled his shadow physique and returned to his normal form. Then lifted the sword Fein gave him and gathered force in his arms to thrust it into the monster's heart.
Just like that, the sword penetrated the monster's chest, before Michael felt strong resistance and the sword stopped moving before it could reach the heart. 'What a tough body!'
As was about to jump back, the shadow chains that kept the monster from moving collapsed and the monster lunged at Michael, who wasn't in his shadow state.
Michael looked at the monster. 'Oppss...'
