Catastrophe Containment Facility

After killing the barbarian, Zheng Xuan's thin figure suddenly grew taller in the eyes of the woman in the red dress. He was ushered into Douxuan City with the highest honors.

For Zheng Xuan now, completing the investigation mission of the Wisdom Kingdom is quite easy.

Moreover, after staying here for a few days, he figured out why his actions were more agile than expected, why these people seemed so weak.

The secret lies in gravity; the gravity of this world is roughly only one-fifth of the reality world, so his physique, being an ordinary person from Earth, is akin to a superman here. The previous feeling of floating was also because of this.

Under normal circumstances, suddenly coming from a high-gravity area to a low-gravity area would cause great discomfort, with severe cases potentially leading to death. However, Zheng Xuan did not feel any of these issues.

This is very unscientific, but time imprints, such things, are inherently unscientific.

Additionally, using the fear the Yaranda People had of him, he extracted much extra intelligence, even obtaining the methods for Yaranda People to condense their Fighting Spirit.

Although these flashy things are not even a match for a handgun, they might be of great value outside.

Wen Wen shifted his gaze from Zheng Xuan to another person.

This person was Chucha. His time imprint belonged to a barren world where there was a Witch Tribe.

Similar to the Yaranda Continent, the Common Language of the Federation was also spoken here, and Chucha's accent sounded like a strange dialect to these witches.

These witch people are tall and strong, living primitively, each possessing the strength of a tiger. The weak Chucha almost became food for them.

However, the witch people's minds were not sharp, and under Chucha's persuasion, they became friends.

Moreover, Chucha also obtained their body-strengthening methods from the witches and started training in the Witch Tribe.

After a few days, Chucha gained a deeper understanding of the Witch Tribe.

In the legends of the witch people, there existed a Witch God in the barren land, endowed with powerful abilities to fly and traverse the land, split mountains, and divide seas.

There were even legends of a Great Witch God who, with his formidable physique, could traverse the void to other worlds.

This time imprint also contained legends of other worlds, which made Wen Wen take notice.

After staying in the Witch Tribe for a few days, Chucha did something beyond Wen Wen's expectations.

He took off the watch Wen Wen gave him and threw it to a deserted area.

It seems he wants to live in the Witch Tribe for a long time, not preparing to be Wen Wen's Investigator.

The other investigators were not much better than Chucha regarding their work attitude.

Some were idling away, doing nothing, while others planned to get rid of Wen Wen and escape from the 'Wisdom Kingdom'.

The most bizarre one dug a hole underground, over ten meters deep, thinking that by hiding so deep, Wen Wen wouldn't be able to find him.

After observing for ten days, Wen Wen began to feel a bit impatient and issued a recall order to all the investigators.

Over a dozen investigators, including Zheng Xuan, straightforwardly obeyed Wen Wen's command, pressing the button on their watches, and walked out from the Bronze Door.

Once they exited, they were led to a building where experts evaluated the information they brought back, after which they received different rewards.

Among a dozen people, only Zheng Xuan's reward was somewhat valuable.

As for the other seven or eight people, Wen Wen called in a few unsightly monsters into the time imprint, hoping they wouldn't cry when dragged back by the monsters.

After all the investigators were settled, Wen Wen gathered all the participants of the Wisdom Kingdom project for another meeting.

Wen Wen didn't expect much outcome from the investigators' first action, so this was considered a test.

During the test, the investigators exposed many problems, which needed resolution for the mission to continue.

So Wen Wen conveyed his new requirements to several Containment Officers led by Ding Mingguang, who would follow Wen Wen's intentions to resolve the issues.

In the future, watches will transition from wearable to binding, making it hard for investigators to remove them. Also, not only can investigators press the return button, but the Wisdom Kingdom team can also control it remotely.

Additionally, new investigators won't directly engage in missions upon recruitment.

Instead, they will wake up in Xia Mansion's Land, receive some exciting challenges, undergo training, and then execute the missions; otherwise, investigators treat the missions like child's play.

Furthermore, investigators conducting tasks individually proved unreliable. Next time, they will be organized into teams for exploration.

The final issue is how to bring back the gathered information.

When Zheng Xuan returned, the Fighting Spirit Cultivation Method he brought back vanished into thin air, and he could only write down bits from memory.

On their next entry, Wen Wen will equip each investigator with paper and pen from the reality world so they can document some written materials.

However, paper and pen alone are insufficient; it would be better to have small camera equipment.

But such equipment is hard to find since the Federation doesn't have the concept of miniature photography devices, and those bought with Demon Hunting Coins from the Hunter Association are far from portable.

So Wen Wen plans to visit the U.S.-Canada District, where Black Night Knight's lab has numerous black-tech items; perhaps it has the miniature photography equipment Wen Wen needs.

After handling everything, Wen Wen found a bench and sat on it, gazing at Yuriano's sky.

During his consciousness' wanderings in those time imprints, Wen Wen noticed something special: most time imprints use the Common Language of the Federation!

Though time imprints are illusory, they indeed existed, proving that not only Earth Federation People use this language.

Furthermore, extending the thought, monsters from the Inner World generally have mastery of the Common Language of the Federation.

Does this imply that those non-Earth time imprints represent merely a part of the Inner World?

Originally, Wen Wen believed the Common Language of the Federation was a naturally developed language of the reality world. Now it seems it might originate from the Inner World.

Maybe thousands of years ago, visitors from the Inner World came to reality, imparting a complete language to a still-enlightening humanity.

Extending the idea further, is the Common Language of the Federation not a native Earth language, then are humans truly native Earth species? Could humans also come from the Inner World?

What secret lies within, Wen Wen cannot conclude; perhaps as investigators delve deeper, the truth will gradually unfold.
