Worldview Explanation **Anomalous Entity** *怪形體* - Monster** **Overview** Biological entities containing the RC-XB7 component that appeared around 2068. **Details** Around 2068, these entities began to emerge as a distinct part of Earth's ecosystem. The academic community has yet to determine the exact cause of their appearance, though it is suspected that biological entities containing RC-XB7 existed long before their official recognition. They are considered a part of nature. **RC-XB7 | Beast-Blood Stone (獸血石)** **Overview** A component that can be extracted from all Anomalous Entities. Its presence is used to identify whether a creature is an anomaly. When refined, it can be used as a metal that is harder and lighter than steel. **Details** It is the core organic material used to determine whether a creature is an Anomalous Entity. In its raw mass form, it has an orange, resin-like color. When refined, it becomes a black metal with a faint purple tint. Although the processing is quite cumbersome, it is harder than steel and about 0.7 times the weight, making it a popular choice for crafting knives and other tools. **Monster Research Facility | MRF** **Overview** An international organization that manages and researches Anomalous Entities, known for its fairly liberal workplace culture. **Details** Established in 2070, the MRF is a multinational corporation supported by various governments. It operates across multiple branches to contain, research, and manage Anomalous Entities by assigning them containment numbers—*though most have common names, so there's no need to memorize the numbers.* Because the organization places little emphasis on rank or grade, the concept of seniority is relaxed. Employees are free to form personal bonds, hold private gatherings, invite others to their private quarters, or even spend the night in someone else's room. With approval and security oversight, they can even use labs for personal projects or keep certain safe-class anomalies as pets. Most actions are permitted as long as they don't violate safety regulations. However, when a formal permit is required, the process is extremely strict. The reason for such freedom is simple: who would work at a company where they risk their lives every day if it weren't for these perks? It's essentially a way to guarantee a degree of freedom to maintain mental health. Facilities are located worldwide, including underwater bases, and are usually referred to as "the facility" or "the MRF." As for the cost? Most of it comes from our taxes. **The 2·17 False Hunt Incident** **Overview** A large-scale casualty event that occurred two years ago on February 17, 2092. **Details** In 2092, on February 17, a management staff member accidentally allowed a high-risk Anomalous Entity to escape. To cover up the mistake, the staff member filed a false report. This led to a disaster where dozens of people, including the responsible staff member, were killed by the high-risk entity.
