Seeing the pesky human lying on the ground looking weak and powerless, the demonic shark lunged forward. It couldn't wait any longer to tear apart his flesh and break all his bones to smithereen.
Out of the blue, before the monster fish could touch him, Dante's weakening body suddenly shook, and then a massive amount of blinding energy burst out like a shockwave.
The demonic shark failed to react in ti to defend itself. As a result, it was hit by it. The shockwave of blinding energy took down the demonic shark in the blink of an eye.
The demonic shark could not even fathom what happened to it. It died without realizing how it died.
Dante could not process as well what had just happened. However before he could clarify what had just transpired, his vision suddenly blurred. It seed suddenly he couldn't feel his entire body. Not even his finger. As though he was a conscious being with no actual body. He couldn't feel his blood circulating as well; he could not feel anything at all.
At that mont, he heard footsteps. Then a startled voice ca.
"Eh? You... you are... What... What's happened here? That's..."
Dante's blurry vision looked at the figure. It seed like he was hallucinating. Although blurry, the figure who approached him sowhat looked familiar. He was wearing a peculiar outfit. Like one who is ready for combat.
Is that a specialized battlesuit? Dante's inner thoughts.
However, what's Kyzer even doing here? This place is dangerous. Run. Go away, Kyzer. This place is... there's a...
Dante wanted to warn him about the danger, but his voice could not co out. He hadn't even realized that the remains of the demonic shark were lying right beside him.
Suddenly, another figure arrived.
"Hey, newbie! Wait, is this the Rank B demonic fish? Wow! You took it down alone?"
"Eh? Uh..."
Before Kyzer could deny it, the senior hero in front of him suddenly exclaid.
"Impressive! You're truly as they say! A genius born to beco a hero!"
The news about the appearance of demonic fish creatures caused a vast discussion in the whole country.
All dia outlets showed the sa reports.
According to them, along with 69 victims, who are proven dead, two gravely injured individuals were saved by the newbie mber of the SWORD Corps. These two survivors were already brought to the hospital and were recuperating. Their condition was no longer in danger according to their doctors, but they were in a state of coma and will be in that state for who knows how long.
In one of the patient wards, lody Jo, the new mber of the SHIELD, was sitting beside a patient.
The patient was a girl. It was the girl who Dante tried to save. Although her condition is said to be far from danger now, she is in a coma at the mont.
lody's face was solemn. Despite managing to beco one of the agents in the SHIELD, she failed to protect the only person she wished to protect. What used to be an agent if she wasn't even there when her little sister needed her the most?
She clasped her little sister's tiny hand between hers. Tears fell down her unblemished smooth skin.
At that ti, she and Nina were in the training room when suddenly they received a ssage from the headquarters' commander.
They learned that a Rank B demonic fish appeared in the middle of the city near the plaza.
The plaza wasn't far from the elentary school where her sister went.
Hastily donning her battlesuit armor, lody imdiately ran towards there. However, it was already too late when they arrived there. The demonic shark creature was already dealt and only the remnants of battle could be seen around.
Later, she learned that there were many victims and there were only two survivors; the rest were killed gruesoly.
Upon hearing it, lody inquired about the nas of the victims and the survivors. Her heart couldn't settle as long as she learned her sister was not on the list of victims.
Upon learning the truth, her body trembled, especially after learning that the condition of her sister was quite critical. Her tears burst out like fountains at that mont.
lody was also quite shocked when she learned who the other survivor was.
It was no other than her supposedly sidekick.
How unlucky he was to be in that place when the demonic shark appeared?
However, since they hadn't known each other yet, he held no significance to her. After all, he was just a stranger to her. Her most important concern was her sister.
Thankfully, soone was there to save her sister right on ti, if not, lody couldn't imagine what she would do if she lost her sister.
'I think I need to thank him personally,' lody thought.
After the appearance of demonic fish creatures in the city, the populace demanded an explanation from the authorities.
Since the governnt couldn't hide it anymore from the masses, a representative from the SWORD Corps, Anthonio Wang, held a press conference, explaining the appearance of Apocalypse Islands in the South China Sea.
"Mr. Wang, I am Abel Solomon from News Today dia. My question is... when did these creatures start appearing?" A reporter from one of the mainstream dia asked.
"It happened a few years ago, but only recently they started becoming active."
"There's rumor before about it, but suddenly it died down. Is the governnt the one who took down those rumors?"
"Yes, but the governnt only did what is for the better. As I said, at that ti, we were still clueless about those creatures. So instead of causing unnecessary worries to the people, the governnt decided to hide the truth while monitoring and studying about them in silence."
"So did you find out their origin? Are they aliens? Are we under attack by aliens now?"
"Yes, our research bears fruit sohow. Those creatures are not aliens but normal fishes only."
His exposition caused a shock to everyone.
"What?! Really?! Then how did they turn into such a terrifying creature?"
"It's called Mutation."
"Mutation?"
Sudden whispers and murmurs erupted from the people around.
"Mr. Wang, My na is Hazel Tiang from One dia. Can you tell us what caused those fish's mutation? Could it be the Apocalypse Island behind their mutation?"
"So far we are still not sure of their mutation cause, but I can assure you that the governnt does their best to learn the truth."
"Since the governnt already knew the danger of those creatures, what did the governnt do or did the governnt already have so counterasures?"
"Yes, after knowing about the danger of those creatures, the governnt established three secret organizations to protect the country. They are called TriCorps."
"Can you tell us about these three corps?"
"Of course, the corps where I belonged to is called the SWORD Corps. Our main duty is to protect the people inside the barrier. The second one is known as the SHIELD Corps. Their main task is to protect and maintain the barriers around the cities. The last one is the Research Corps. Their main purpose is as their na suggests— to study the Apocalypse Islands and the mutation of those fishes."
Hearing his reply, everyone turned noisy.
"So, uhm, Mr. Wang, you have ntioned barriers. Could it be that those barriers are not ant for protection against bomb radiation, as the governnt said before? They are built for protection against those mutated creatures, am I right?"
"Yes, you're right."
"Aside from the governnt, are there other people who know about Apocalypse Island and the secret TriCorps Organizations?"
"The top families knew them."
What? So the top families already knew about them?
"What is the governnt's plan for the future?"
"The governnt plans to strengthen our defense. So in the coming future, there might be a wide recruitnt of future heroes who will fight to defend our motherland. However, there are requirents for that."
Questions kept coming and Anthonio Wang, maintaining his composure, answered them without batting an eye.
After Anthonio Wang's conference, the country underwent massive changes, especially to the so-called ordinary schools.
