David Brooks's eyes and nose instantly turned to mush, his face smashed into a deep pit. The tremendous impact snapped his head violently backward, breaking his cervical vertebrae with a brutal crack.

Just that one punch, and David Brooks was dead beyond any hope.

"See, I wasn't lying to you."

Facing David Brooks's corpse, James Carter was speaking when a thunderous crash sounded—the overturned desk suddenly flipped up into the air.

John Bennett, who had been pinned under the desk, actually stood up again, but he looked completely different.

At this moment, John Bennett's entire body was covered in long black fur, his mouth protruded forward in a huge snout, his jaws parted to reveal rows of sharp white teeth, his eyes turned emerald green, and a pair of furry pointed ears appeared.

He had grown over two feet taller, his bulging muscles bursting through his suit, and both hands had become long, sharp claws.

Yeah, he looked just like a werewolf—wolf's head, human body!

"I—" James Carter almost blurted out a curse, but quickly caught himself and changed it, "I—what luck..."

In this world, there are no werewolves, but there are wolf demons.

Decades ago, humanity discovered a passage to another dimension. Through it, they discovered the existence of source power.

Humans gradually realized the importance of source power and developed it into a specialized system.

Those who mastered source power were called Source Masters. From then on, Source Masters became the highest class of humans.

The dimensional passage awakened humanity's source power talents. At the same time, it brought the demon race.

The demons from the other dimension possessed intelligence no less than humans, but their bodies far surpassed ordinary humans.

Wolf demons are one type of demon from the other dimension; they can disguise themselves as humans and hide among human society.

For decades, the demon race has caused tremendous destruction in the human world. They are the root of this world's chaos.

Generally, dealing with demons requires a Source Master. The teachers at the Inspector Academy had repeatedly emphasized this to the students.

Yet in a small gang like the Black Tiger Gang, they encountered a wolf demon. That was a rare event.

Transformed, John Bennett's body was huge and powerful, his wolf head fierce and hideous, his entire being radiating a terrifying ferocity.

But he also emitted a strong, pungent stench, and drool constantly dripped from the corners of his mouth.

James Carter smiled at John Bennett, speaking sincerely: "Mr. Duan, your transformation is really impressive, but the body odor is a bit much. I recommend a deodorant—I'm sure it'll suit you..."

"Die!"

Transformed into a wolf demon, John Bennett hadn't lost his mind, but he was furious.

James Carter had flipped the desk and nearly crushed him to death.

Fortunately, he was born with a strong body, far surpassing ordinary humans. After being knocked out by the desk, his hidden bloodline power was triggered, and he involuntarily revealed his true wolf demon form.

John Bennett had been undercover in the Alliance for twenty years, and in recent years had established himself in Linhai, founding the Black Tiger Gang.

Though small, the gang controlled several neighborhoods, influencing up to ten or twenty thousand people at the lowest levels. Upwards, they had connections with the Administration Hall, Inspector Bureau, and Justice Bureau.

The Black Tiger Gang had truly taken root in Linhai City. With such deep cultivation, in less than twenty years, they might even unify all the gangs in Linhai.

All of this was ruined by James Carter.

Now that his true form was revealed, he couldn't change back for a while.

Luckily, this was in his sealed office. As long as he dealt with James Carter, he still had a chance to return to human form.

In this situation, the wolf demon had no time for small talk with James Carter. With a low growl, he lunged at James Carter.

Transformed, the wolf demon stood at least 2.2 or 2.3 meters tall, with long limbs and great speed.

Facing the ferocious wolf demon, James Carter didn't retreat but instead charged forward, grabbing the wolf demon around the waist.

The cramped office left no room for James Carter to maneuver. Besides, his martial skills were mediocre. So he simply used wrestling techniques to maximize his own advantage.

After reverting to his true form, the wolf demon's weight had increased to nearly 300 jin. James Carter had no idea where all that extra mass came from.

But that extra weight was nothing to him. James Carter bent his knees and, exerting force, lifted the wolf demon up.

Sensing danger, the wolf demon quickly locked his legs around James Carter's waist, and his sharp claws slashed viciously at James Carter's back.

With his brute strength and razor-sharp claws, he could have ripped out James Carter's internal organs.

To the wolf demon's surprise, James Carter's body was both tough and slippery, causing the claws to slide off to the sides uncontrollably, only tearing the Inspector's uniform and leaving ten long bloody marks on his back.

But the wolf demon knew these were just flesh wounds, causing almost no real harm to James Carter.

This human's body was even tougher than theirs! How was that possible?

Just as the wolf demon realized something was wrong, James Carter launched his counterattack.

He suddenly twisted his waist with explosive force, his powerful core making his movements incredibly swift and strong.

Before the wolf demon could react, his head was slammed hard into the ground.

The thick pure-wool carpet couldn't cushion such a savage blow; half of the wolf demon's head was driven into the reinforced concrete floor.

This move, a head-first slam, is a particularly brutal wrestling technique. James Carter's execution was a bit rough, but his strength was overwhelming.
