Meanwhile, outside the building, a white motorcycle screeched to a halt at the entrance.
Shiraishi Shin unbuckled his helmet and looked up at the identical Ant Amazons in the building's hallway.
"Are they all mass-produced ants?"
Seeing this, Shiraishi Shin lost most of his interest. He had thought that with so many Monsters gathered together, he could get multiple draws after killing them.
He didn't expect them to be trash that the system wouldn't even count.
However, since he was already here, he might as well get rid of some pests.
When Shiraishi Shin arrived, many Amazons upstairs noticed the "gourmet meal" that had delivered itself to their doorstep and immediately rushed down, with some even jumping straight from the third or fifth floors.
"Is everyone so eager to apply for hell registration with the Grim Reaper? No need to rush, everyone gets a share!"
[Eternal!]
"Henshin!"
[Eternal!]
A large number of white fragments instantly covered Shiraishi Shin's body from his feet up. His yellow compound eyes glowed with golden light, and a black cape automatically formed behind him.
"Ha!"
With a low shout, Shiraishi Shin kicked an Ant Amazon, sending it flying like a bowling ball and crashing into the three Amazons behind it.
The trident on Eternal's head wasn't just for decoration; it could emit ultrasonic waves in a 360° radius. By capturing the reflected waves, it acted as a supersensory organ to eliminate blind spots.
Thus, in Eternal's eyes, there were no blind spots.
At that moment, an Amazon was behind him.
Shiraishi Shin swung his right leg back and delivered a powerful kick to the Ant Amazon's head, causing the black ant head to burst on the spot.
[Weather!]
Shiraishi Shin pulled out the Weather Memory and equipped it.
Watching the dozen or so Ant Amazons swarming him, the ground within five meters of his feet instantly froze.
Frost visible to the naked eye climbed onto the Ant Amazons, and within two seconds, they were frozen into motionless ice sculptures.
Snap!
With a snap of Shiraishi Shin's fingers, the dozen or so frozen Ant Amazons shattered into ice shards simultaneously.
The cold air from the Weather Memory didn't just freeze the surface; it froze everything from the outside in, from every inch of skin to the blood vessels and internal organs.
After killing a dozen, Shiraishi Shin leapt six meters high to the third floor, where Amazons were in front of and behind him.
"It really is an ant nest."
After a snarky remark, Shiraishi Shin extended his right hand.
A circle of black clouds appeared behind him, and the moment they appeared, red lightning struck the Ant Amazons ahead, killing them on contact.
After clearing the Amazons in front, he turned around, grabbed his cape, and swung it.
Countless crescent-shaped wind blades sliced forward like a meat grinder, sending severed limbs and black blood flying everywhere.
However, once the Amazons were completely dead, these severed limbs would turn into black liquid, so it wasn't that horrifying.
These were all the lowest-level Ant Amazons, and in Shiraishi Shin's eyes, they weren't even worth a single exchange.
Meanwhile, the members of the Extermination Squad trapped in the room also noticed something unusual.
Misaki Kazuya noticed that the beast-like roars outside seemed to have vanished.
He cautiously approached the door and found that the Amazons outside had left.
He said blankly,
"Strange, why did the Amazons leave? Have they lost interest in us?"
"They're all gone?"
Shido Makoto walked over with a handgun.
Seeing that there were indeed no more Amazons outside the door, he wondered if they had given up because they couldn't eat them.
Fukuda Kota, holding a tablet, looked at the red dots representing Amazon signals on the screen and said in shock,
"The number of Amazons is decreasing rapidly! From the initial 182 to 96... No, it's still decreasing. 95, 91—four vanished at once—88, 80!"
"What?"
Everyone present was bewildered.
The number of Amazons was continuously dropping; something must have happened.
Mamoru, an Amazon member of the Extermination Squad, said happily,
"Could it be that the reinforcements have already installed the gas on the top floor and it's working?"
But the other team members weren't that naive.
Their Extermination Squad was the strongest in Nozama, and with over 180 Amazons scattered here, anyone breaking in would surely be surrounded.
How could they reach the top floor so easily?
Shido Makoto made a split-second decision:
"Let's go. We're going out to see what exactly is happening."
The four members of the Extermination Squad walked cautiously with their guns.
Behind them followed two others: one was the core of their team, Mamoru, the Mole Amazon, and the other was the Green Amazon, Mizusawa Yuu, who was also Kamen Rider Amazons.
The group of six left the room and entered the hallway.
They could faintly hear sounds coming from the fifth floor.
They glanced at each other and proceeded toward the fifth floor.
Along the way, whether in the hallways or on the stairs, black liquid and Amazon armbands were everywhere.
"Hurry up!"
They had been cautious when they first stepped out, but as they realized there were no more Amazons around, they quickly rushed to the fourth floor.
When they reached the fifth floor, they found the person was gone, leaving only the steaming slime of the recently killed Amazons.
So they continued upward.
When they reached the rooftop, they found the remaining twenty or so Amazons were all there.
And their enemy was only one: a mysterious person in a white combat suit and a black cape.
At this moment, these Ant Amazons did not step forward to attack the person.
Instead, they surrounded and protected an Ant Queen Amazon who was clearly different from the ordinary Ant Amazons.
Takai Nozomi stared blankly at the white figure who had intimidated so many Amazons single-handedly and said,
"Did he take down all those Amazons in the hallway by himself?"
Fukuda Kota guessed,
"Could he be the Kamen Rider from the urban legends? Like those times before when we obtained Amazon armbands for free without fighting, maybe he was the one who did it."
Misaki Kazuya said with an excited smile,
"A Kamen Rider? It's really possible. No one else but a Kamen Rider could do this alone. He's more like an Amazon Hunter than we are."
Although they hadn't killed these Amazons, the armbands could still be exchanged for money at Nozama.
Especially this time, Shido Makoto had even secured double pay for this mission.
