As the bald man finished speaking, an image of a young girl suddenly appeared on the huge display panel behind him. She was dressed in a snow-white outfit and was none other than the Holy Emperor.

Upon seeing the image of the Holy Emperor, all the police officers and company presidents present stood up to show their respect.

Standing beside the Holy Emperor was Tendo Kikunojo, and Tendo Kisara's gaze sharpened the moment he saw Tendo Kikunojo, as a deep memory of the blood feud against his parents surged in his heart.

"Everyone, please don't be so reserved. I will explain the mission to you. Mission one: A Gastrea has infiltrated the Tokyo area and you need to deal with it. Mission two: There is a box inside its body. Please make sure to retrieve the box safely."

The Holy Emperor's voice was calm and gentle.

"And the reward for the mission is..."

As the Holy Emperor finished speaking, the screen on the display panel switched to another window.

The window displayed a silver briefcase, followed by a screen showing the reward for completing the task: 100 million yen. This figure caused a slight commotion in the conference room.

Lin Yu said it was normal; the several Gastrea battles had severely reduced the number of Self-Defense Force personnel in the Tokyo area, and if a few more battles occurred, they might be wiped out.

“Da da da…”

The tense atmosphere in the conference room was broken by the sudden gunshot, and everyone's attention was drawn to the door.

The gunshots were continuous and rapid, as if it were some kind of signal, and then everything returned to silence.

Then, the door was pushed open, and a figure wearing a smiling mask and a tuxedo appeared in everyone's sight, followed by a little girl with short blue hair.

Hiroko Yin and Hiroko Kohina appear.

"boom!"

Hiruko Kagetane's actions made the atmosphere in the conference room even more tense.

He casually tossed the box he was holding onto the conference table; the edges of the box were still stained with blood.

He walked to the table, bowed slightly to the image of the Holy Emperor, and then introduced himself: "I apologize for disturbing your meeting. First, let me introduce myself. My name is Hiruko Kagetane. Nice to meet you, incompetent ruler."

That was a perfect display of arrogance. Lin Yu watched Hiruko Kagetane's elegant movements and could only say that this guy had a really high level of pretentiousness. The box he threw away must have contained the head of the absent person.

You bastard!!

Rentaro Satomi reacted quickly and decisively. He immediately drew his pistol, gripped it tightly with both hands, and pointed the muzzle directly at Kagetane Hiruko.

His mission failed that day because of this man.

“This is not my new friend, Rentaro Satomi. We meet again. I told you we would definitely meet again.”

Hiruko Kagetane's body instantly moved to Satomi Rentaro's side, and he easily pressed down Satomi Rentaro's raised arm.

"Your eyes look so fierce, it makes me feel like I'm a bad guy."

Hiruko Kagetane's voice carried a hint of mockery; he seemed unconcerned about Satomi Rentaro's hostility.

"You bastard!"

Rentaro Satomi raised his gun again, but Hiruko Kagetane had already appeared beside Lin Yu.

"Since you are so powerful, would you be interested in cooperating with me...?"

Hiruko Kagetane's words instantly silenced the conference room, and everyone stared at Lin Yu, as if waiting for him to say what he would say next.

"So why do you think someone as strong as me would choose to cooperate with you?" Lin Yu said calmly, crossing his arms and leaning against the wall.

The next second, "Bang!"

Hiruko Kagetane knelt on one knee, shattering the ground, before Lin Yu, his repulsive force domain being shattered.

Gastrea can regenerate, but you can't. For an ordinary cyborg warrior to use telekinesis is a sign of respect for you; otherwise, you'd be a monster.

"Oh no, I can't take it anymore."

With Lin Yu's superb acting skills, Hiruko Kagetane regained his activity, looked up at Lin Yu, and then jumped onto the conference table.

All eyes turned to Lin Yu again. Are you kidding me, bro? You're already done for? We're not stupid!

"Ahem! Well... I didn't rest well today, I'm feeling a bit tired..."

Everyone: I don't believe you for a second...

"Alright everyone, look at me. Aren't you curious why a box is worth 100 million yen?"

Hiruko Kagetane stood on the conference table, looking down at everyone except Lin Yu, but he successfully attracted everyone's attention.

Although he didn't know what Lin Yu was up to, he hadn't killed him just now, but he probably also wanted to destroy the Tokyo area.

"Dad, can I cut him down?" Hiruko Kohina regained her fighting spirit after seeing her father return to normal.

Hiruko Kohinata, a mantis-type initiator, will lose her will to fight if her father is defeated.

"No, Hina, this person is very strong."

Hiruko Kagetane looked at Hina. She was a very obedient child with high combat power, but she was too young and didn't understand some things.

"Oh..."

Hiruko Kohina responded with a sound of reluctance.

"Alright, everyone, the reason this box is worth 100 million is because it contains Gastrea, which can summon Stage 5 Gastrea. It is a legacy of the Seven Stars."

"So who do you think will be the one to summon it? While the monolith can block a large number of Gastrea, it cannot stop a Tier 5 Gastrea."

"So let's play a game, everyone. Let's have a competition to see who can find the infected Gastrea first and seize the 'Seven Stars' legacy'."

Hiruko Kagetane's tone was slightly mocking: "As far as I know, the 'Seven Stars' legacy' may have already been absorbed by that Gastrea, so if you want to get it, you just need to defeat that Gastrea."

Hiruko Kagetane continued, his words revealing his anticipation for the impending conflict: "If you win, Tokyo will be at peace; if you lose, then..."

He paused deliberately, and when he saw that Lin Yu didn't react, he left the suspense hanging heavily in the air, "The entire Tokyo will face destruction!!"

Hiruko Kagetane's laughter was sharp and piercing. He stretched out his arms in an exaggerated gesture, as if announcing to the whole world that an irresistible fear was about to descend.

The figure cast a long shadow under the conference room lights, adding a touch of dramatic tension.

"Fear is about to descend, and you will have no way to escape it..."

His voice echoed in the conference room, every word filled with provocation.
