Syringe headquarters.
"Confirmed loss of life signs."
A girl who served as a computer technician in the Syringe organization made this somewhat shocked report.
So she looked toward other technical personnel beside her - not computer technicians, but developers of that special battle suit.
She had them examine the transmitted data to see what it specifically meant.
Well, looking at their expression, she knew this mission had problems.
This mission was also supposed to collect experimental data incidentally, but it seemed after complete activation, the host's life signs stopped responding in less than ten seconds.
There were probably problems with the drugs in the battle suit - they directly killed the person.
"Speak up, what's the situation?"
A seemingly relaxed tone sounded, but made both people's bodies stiffen considerably. Because the voice's owner was the Princess - Syringe's master.
"Princess, this data..."
The developer explained the current data transmitted via satellite in terms everyone could understand.
The general meaning was that the drug activation was fine, and the test subject's changes were about as expected.
However, the sudden termination of life wasn't due to drug problems, but because the test subject might have received instantly fatal external force.
"So you're saying that despite gaining enhancement, he was still killed by the opponent in just a few moves? Is the opponent that powerful?"
"I-I'm not sure, and because death came too quickly, we couldn't get complete post-enhancement vital activity data..."
The developer explained with sweat covering his head.
Actually, there were some things left unsaid.
According to the transmitted data, which included the test subject's heartbeat, breathing rate, blood oxygen content, and some hormone secretion, they could judge the test subject's condition.
They could determine whether the test subject was currently in combat or non-combat state, because the physiological data responses would differ greatly.
The feedback here showed that after entering combat state, the opponent used that semi-finished drug to further enhance his strength in less than two seconds.
This was somewhat problematic.
Shouldn't it have been used only after fighting the target and confirming he couldn't win?
Using it directly from the start?
Was he certain he would lose without using this?
Or was it possible that he realized the opponent's terror in the instant of engagement and needed to use it immediately?
The result was that even after using it, he couldn't last five seconds before his life rapidly withered and disappeared.
This meant two possibilities - either the drug really had problems and the test subject couldn't survive it and died suddenly.
The other was that the opponent was too terrifying.
If it was the latter, it was unimaginable what kind of monster the opponent was.
This meant they had really provoked a very dangerous existence.
Of course, without saying these things, the intelligent Princess before him should also be able to see this.
"Alright, I don't mean to hold you accountable. After all, I participated in developing that drug too."
The Princess's words made the developer breathe a sigh of relief.
The next second, the girl responsible for computer technology suddenly rushed to the computer and started typing rapidly.
"What is it?"
"Princess, this-this, I'm not sure, but it seems like we've been hacked?"
She said this, but couldn't find any evidence of intrusion at all.
However, she saw that computer abnormality that absolutely couldn't happen.
How to describe it - it was like the computer was suddenly briefly rolled back, restored to one second ago.
Through this one-second abnormality, a rollback was performed, thus eliminating all traces of intrusion?
This one-second abnormality might also make people mistakenly think the computer had lagged or experienced delay.
But for her, sensitive to data and being a genius hacker, she still keenly caught the brief moment when her program code in a window changed.
So if there really was an intrusion, it meant the other party's technology exceeded her imagination.
Very troubling.
Maybe this place was also exposed.
After Kiba Mikoto also arrived at the scene, she saw a somewhat abnormal body.
The opponent's body was as horrifying as if skinned, but the limbs were somewhat strange.
First, horns had grown from the head, beast-like fangs had grown from the mouth area, and the pupils had become vertical pupils.
Then there were body problems - the hands had become somewhat elongated, with proportions somewhat like an ape's limbs.
Especially the hands - the fingers looked like claws.
Simply put, this corpse gave the impression of a horned demon from ghost stories.
This corpse was obviously from the "Syringe" side too, seeing the destroyed mask beside it - the demon mask that the "Syringe" organization liked to wear.
This monster clearly looked extremely powerful, because even Mr. Ejie's arm was injured.
But all this wasn't what shocked Kiba Mikoto most - it was Mr. Ejie's current attire.
Such sci-fi flight power armor - could this era really develop such things?
"I'm leaving for a bit, I'll be back in at most an hour."
After leaving these words, he took flight.
After reaching a certain altitude, he disappeared into the night sky at amazing speed.
"That-that was a sonic boom, right?"
The fat guy beside her made a somewhat trembling sound, and Kiba Mikoto also stared dazedly at the departing figure - it was actually supersonic flight.
Was this really a product of this era?
"As expected, a super soldier from the future! Cool!"
"Huh?"
Kiba Mikoto looked somewhat incredulously at the fat guy - what was his name again, Kohta Hirano?
"Those two gun barrels on the flight wings behind him - looking at that design, they don't look like they fire physical shells. They're laser cannons, right! To satisfy such energy weapons while miniaturizing to this degree, it definitely wouldn't be chemical fuel - micro nuclear fusion?"
The fat guy seemed like a technical person, analyzing excitedly.
"Um, you said he's a super soldier from the future? How do you know?"
Kiba Mikoto interrupted him.
"Isn't this obvious? It's just..."
After hearing the fat guy's explanation and roughly understanding, Kiba Mikoto stopped listening to the fat guy who had already gone into self-delusion.
It turned out this military otaku fat guy had watched too many movies and was making his own assumptions.
However, it had to be said, it was indeed somewhat reasonable.
So if aliens came out next, Kiba Mikoto wouldn't be too shocked.
But one thing could be definitively confirmed - "Syringe" had pissed him off.
They had provoked an incredible existence who was on his way to return the favor.
This was truly deserved.
