"…"

Everyone sucked a cold breath when they heard about Theo's insight.

"Now that I think about it, only General Class Monsters are able to talk with our language. And it's quite surprising to see Elite Rank Monster as a General Class Monster."

"That's true. Even I only found Champion Rank Monster at minimum to be a General Class Monster."

"So, it's like that… They're evolved monsters. This is a different type of monster than the one we have seen so far. Back in the radiation problem, they're called mutated monsters due to their characteristics.

"Then, we call the monsters coming from the sea 'Sea Race' instead of 'Sea Monsters.' I think that's for a reason…"

"That's true. Theodore Griffith was the first to call them Sea Race, so we just followed along."

"But if what he said was true, then the monsters targeting our base have evolved…Evolved Monsters, huh…"

"Isn't this a huge problem?"

"Don't tell me, Theodore Griffith has been trying to figure this out the entire time?"

"So, he's not just holing up in his territory."

"Of course. How do you think we've survived so far?"

"Yeah. If that's the case, then I think we should be wary of these evolved monsters."

"We need to prepare."

*Clap!*

"!!!" Their bodies shuddered because they were startled by the sudden clap from Maya.

"I haven't told you the second statement. And this is much worse than the first one." Maya sighed.

Everyone widened their eyes in shock, looking at Maya. They began to feel a chill down their spine.

If Theo considered them bad, it meant they simply had no ability to fight against this second problem.

Maya's expression turned grim as she said, "There will be a battle big enough to shake the world. The war that will decide the extinction of a race called humans.

"Even I can't predict the outcome of that war. So, etch these words into your mind. You are free to fight among yourselves, but I'm not planning to do the same. Whatever you're doing, I won't stop preparing for what's going to come. However, it will be best if you prepare for it yourself because even I might not have the ability to protect my own life."

"!!!" The moment they heard Theo's statement, their faces darkened, realizing this matter would be beyond their imagination.

If Theo couldn't even save his life, how could they?

Maya let out a long sigh. "That's all I can say about his statement. It's up to you whether you are going to take it seriously or not.

"In fact, looking at some of your faces, I can see that you're thinking that I'm saying those words because I want to raise his or my prestige, so it's your choice to believe it or not.

"You can think about it yourself while I will use all the resources of the Star Group to prepare for the threat. That's all…"

One of them couldn't help but ask, "Why are you telling us about this now? Aren't there a lot of opportunities to do so?"

Maya wanted to say, 'Of course, it's because Theo is using his illusion to tell me about it. And I'm merely relaying his words to you.'

Of course, she couldn't say that. Instead, she pointed at all the people in the room. "Look at all of you. You are the leaders of organizations, companies, and families in the base. All of you have a certain influence and have the capital to do that.

"Hence, it's better to tell you right now since you have gathered in one spot for this. And the fact that the unknown evolved monster has attacked us, I believe you can accept Theo's words easier.

"As for the government…" Maya glanced at the Vice President whose face had become pale because he knew he had fucked up. She said, "You can do whatever you want. Well, I don't have any good relationship with the government anyway since they've disappointed me all the time.

"So, no matter what you do, I'm not going to retract my statement of allowing the military to enter Theo's session. As for the King of Fighters and your Salvatore Family…"

Maya paused, glaring at the King of Fighters without getting scared. The latter could easily kill her since they were now meeting face to face. But the King of Fighters knew what he should do after all the setbacks.

Hence, he only stared at her silently. If she relieved the ban, he would be grateful since the Salvatore Family could get what they wanted. Even the past allies would return to him. But if she didn't relieve the ban, he didn't particularly care about it.

On the one hand, the allies were important to him. On the other hand, what was the use of an ally if they could simply leave just because of one setback? It was clear that those allies would backstab him if the opportunity arrived.

Hence, whatever her choice, he would accept it.

Maya let out a long sigh and said, "I don't think I have to tell you about what you should do after this. If you want to solve the problem, then you should do it. If you don't want to do it, then that's fine as well."

The King of Fighters closed his eyes for a moment before coming out of the sterilized room and tossed the dead slimy monster.

"We have to take care of this monster. Find out everything about them. We also have to capture all monsters in this place and because we don't know the full group, we have to lock down this place and check every single participant. For now, we have to call all scientists to help us.

"As for the Vice President, who is clearly involved in this. I think…" The King of Fighters turned to the military. "The military can handle this, right?"

The military personnel standing by on the side nodded their heads. After seeing all that proof, they had to detain the Vice President before asking any questions.
