The Supreme Satanic System

Captain Kimura Onsen and her four subordinates passed back the AI pods in their hands to the muscular man.

The muscular man took out a paper-thin foldable communication device and started typing something on it. Then he said after a couple of minutes, gesturing with his hands toward the wooden boat. "Done!... Well, I'll bring you all inside the city. Guys, please,"

They boarded on the wooden boards, and the muscular man started rowing the boat toward the center of the center. And when the boat reached the turbulent region of the river, he lifted the oars and let the stream take its course, driving the wooden bow down toward the direction of the city.

It took them barely ten minutes to reach the city. As they landed on the ground in front of the main entrance of the Infinite City, the muscular dark-skinned man walked toward the city wall, which was made from the hardest alloy of vibranium and adamantium that was known to the earth.

He dashed toward the large gate and started punching hard with his fists, making a loud banging sound. Judging how much the man used his raw muscle power on his punches, he could easily plummet an elephant into smithereens of blood and meat paste, with a similar punch to his.

But not a dent was left behind on the main city gate.

A small hole opened up on the wall and a male voice spoke. "Hey Bull, we get your signal. But can you do me a favor? Next time, just punching three times is enough, okay? Alright, just follow the fucking rule!"

The muscular man reached into his pocket and pulled out the five AI pods that were used to identify the five soldiers. And he tossed them through the hole.

"Adios, Kyne! I'll see you soon during the Moon festival." After saying that, he jumped into his boat and began rowing against the current toward their direction without so much as a glance at the five soldiers.

"Did he just call him Bull?" asked Robert Burton, a soldier among the five.

"Oh, Robert, you and your naivety! Hahaha, stop comparing that layman with the Bull, yeah? As you know these days, many people go by the same names." Logan Burton, another soldier, bickered at him.

"Shut up, dickhead? Are you asking for a beating? I know everything about the Great Bull, the infamous Bulldozer of the Spartan Unit." Robert Burton retorted.

"Yes, everyone knows about the Great Bull. But he is definitely not the Great Bull. Sometimes you're so obnoxious that you take a porter as the Great Bull of Sparta. Really laughable! Hahaha," Logan Crane said as he burst into a peal of booming laughter.

Then the two started quarreling as they rained down a volley of curses on each other.

Unable to bear it anymore, Captain Kimuro Onsen shouted, "Enough! What the fuck is wrong with you two?"

Then she further added, "This is the last warning. Now I forbid you all to speak even a single word without my permission until the end of the meeting. Understand?... And who the fuck care if that porter is the legendary Bull or not?"

But she screamed inside her head, 'Oh my gosh! My team has just been escorted by the Bull. Hahaha, how cool is that?.... You see that Infinite City, I'll start climbing my way forward until all the people of the Protector family recognize me.'

Then she adjusted her appearance to an aloof one.

Just at that time, with a loud cracking sound, a large hole in the shape of a door appeared in front of them on the wall of the city.

"Soldiers, you have passed the authentication test. Alright, Captain Kimuro Onsen, you can bring your team inside the city." Kyne, the guard said. He was a lanky man with a funny face who seemed to be in his early 30s. But he was a lot older than that.

Just as they entered the city, they heard the gonging sounds of bells from twelve directions.

"Oh, it's finally happening, someone is calling the elder council after a long gap of twenty years. Interesting! It better be good this time." Kyne said looking up and when he saw the group of five soldiers who had just disappeared, he muttered under his breath. "Captain Kimuro, you better bring an excellent report. Otherwise, those old farts in the Elder Councils might roast you and your teammates dry for pulling such a stun…. Hmm, what is this feeling?!"

The next instant, his heart, which had been stone-cold calm, began beating more irregularly and he yelled, "Hee-hee-hee, this is the feeling that I miss the most. So perhaps my primal instinct is telling me I'm going to have a really exciting fight soon."

Infinite City was a nuclear city as its very foundation was constructed from the nuclear power plants at the grass root level. Yeah, it could be said that this city was the replica of the previous ruined city.

In terms of size, this city expanded ten times more than Danvers, the largest city of the great nation previously known as the United States of America. Even though it was filled with many advanced level infrastructures, the population of the city was just 2,567 people which was composed of the four family lines of the Protector-Slash-Hunter Olden family. Since it was so big and diverse, the robots installed with AIs did most of the city's work.

And the four families that practically ran the city were the Onsen Clan, the Munchi Clan, the Burton Clan, and, last but not the least, the Bradford Clan. The Elder Council was formed, with one oldest member from each clan.

It had been half an hour since the ringing of the twelve tower bells.

A council hall at the north-western side of the City was filled with three old men and one old lady with thin gray hair and thick beards waiting for news from the round table in the tower.
