Catastrophe Containment Facility

The affairs of the Wisdom Kingdom have all been arranged by Wen Wen, and the Monster Factory is also steadily being relocated.

With Wenwu, the Foundation's affairs have been handled methodically, and Wen Wen just needs to control the big picture, while the rest can be handled by Wenwu.

Wen Wen's personality means he is destined not to devote himself fully to certain things, but Wenwu makes up for this shortcoming and guides the development of the Sanctuary on the right track.

In the coming period, Wen Wen has no work to do, so he plans to return to his old ways and look for some interesting monsters to hunt.

Regular Containment Officers or Demon Hunters, who must fight bloodily to deal with monsters, are like ants Wen Wen can crush effortlessly, making most superpower cases lose their appeal to him.

His first target is the areas around Qianhe City, the Foundation's headquarters, where obvious monsters have been eliminated and only some difficult opponents remain.

For instance, a terrifying Evil Ghost hiding in a villa in the southern part of the city can move freely inside the villa, making ordinary superpower users unable to find its trace.

When Wen Wen arrived, he directly leveled the entire villa, rendering the ghost's ability to hide irrelevant.

Another example is a thousand-year-old turtle demon, whose body is as hard as steel and invincible. Wen Wen came over and sliced it into eight pieces with one sword.

Don't ask how one sword can cut into eight pieces; just know that Wen Wen is awesome.

As for any monster that can turn invisible, to Wen Wen it looks as obvious as carrying a searchlight.

The surroundings of Qianhe City were crudely 'explored' by Wen Wen, and any monsters found were squeezed to death like chicks.

The entire area around Qianhe City has become peaceful, with various extraordinary legends instantly decreasing by ninety percent or more.

After this sweeping operation, no interesting things were found, but there was one thing that was quite boring.

That thing is a puddle of water, about one cubic meter, which looks like water, checks out as water, and tastes like water when drunk.

But this seemingly normal water can't be frozen or boiled, contains no microorganisms or minerals, and when drunk and expelled, it remains unchanged. It can't quench thirst and will dry out any plants it is poured on to water.

Overall, this thing is extremely abnormal but seems to serve no purpose, so it has been sealed in the Sanctuary.

There are a plethora of such inexplicable items in the Sanctuary, as leaving them outside is inappropriate, but containing them is of no practical use.

For instance, a solar-powered flashlight that only lights up during the daytime, an air-powered water pump that only works when fully exposed to air, and a fruit knife as sharp as the Black Blade but unable to cut any organic matter.

Hastily drafting a record about 'pure water,' Wen Wen lay on the table, sighing out of boredom.

"Why isn't any opposing organization coming to cause trouble, why isn't anyone demanding protection money, aren't new organizations supposed to endure many hardships?"

Although the SRS Foundation is newly established, no secret organization dares to underestimate it.

To some secret organizations, the Foundation is a symbol of bad luck, with every secret organization that gets involved with it suffering huge losses.

The Foundation does not make a lot of big moves, but the deterrence of the Catastrophe Level powerhouse 'Black Cross' is absurdly strong, most famously demonstrated in the battle at the Holy City.

The black energy crosses left behind by Mo Gong in the Holy City still stand unwavering, and the Glory Church has exhausted all means to eliminate the energy influence of these crosses but ended up surrounding them, waiting for their energy to naturally deplete and disappear.

Without sufficient understanding of the Catastrophe Level powerhouse 'Black Cross,' other organizations would not provoke the Foundation.

However, their reluctance to provoke the Foundation doesn't mean the Foundation won't provoke them. Led by Heng An, the Foundation's Containment Officers are making moves across the Capital District, and sooner or later, some secret organization won't be able to stand it.

But at this stage, for Wen Wen seeking fun is a bit troublesome.

He took out pen and paper, creating a list of possible tasks he might need to do.

He plans to find the Black Night Knight to buy photography equipment, fulfill his promise to Ha Erman to make a movie about the Attack-Defense Path...

Moreover, he wants to search for traces of the Truth Society, as their museum may be a part of the Sanctuary.

Additionally, he wishes to see Wen Rui again, as after experiencing that time fragment, he understands Wen Rui better. Although the two have long drifted apart, he still wants to try to help Wen Rui.

"Tsk, upon closer inspection, I actually have a lot of things to do."

"Hey, no hurry, take it slow."

Since advancing, Wen Wen no longer feels the urgency he used to. He is now one of the strongest beings on this planet, and as long as he doesn't act recklessly, it's hard to encounter life-threatening situations.

In the real world, the Hunter Association holds absolute dominance, with other secret organizations being forced to remain behind the scenes. If you meticulously count, there are only a few Catastrophe Level existences outside of the Hunter Association.

Such as the Pope of the Glory Church, the President of the Truth Society, the Speaker of Abyssal Will, the Moon Goddess dwelling in the Arctic sanctuary, the Ancient God Ensook concealed in the deep sea, the Blood Emperor Vlad Gandor inside Chu Wei's body, the Capital Feng Ghost God in the Capital Feng Ghost City, the Old Priest of the Glory Church, and the soon-to-revive Qilin...

"Whoa, when I think about it, there really are a lot of strong figures out there."

Besides these, there could be many more hidden in the shadows, and who can say for sure? Just like the thing that escaped from the Pyramid in the Aifei Region, nobody knows what that is.

Originally intending to go all out and have a good time, Wen Wen decided to rein it in a bit, not too much, just moderately.

He summoned Tao Qingqing and Hu Youling, boarded a plane piloted by Three Cubs, and with the information collected by the Foundation, departed from Qianhe City.

...

In the US-Canada District, inside a residential building, a couple severely overweight lies sleeping deeply on the floor.

Standing nearby are a dozen or so men dressed in black suits, looking at the couple with dark expressions.

A man with a short beard spoke solemnly, "Counting these two, the number of people who have inexplicably fallen into a long slumber has reached two hundred and seventy-four…"

"And this is only in this province; similar cases have occurred in every province within the district, with no links among the victims, indicating that it is random."

"After falling asleep, their health remains normal, but their expressions become extremely painful, as if enduring harsh torture, ultimately dying in torment."

"The troubling part is that each person's expression portrays something different."

A man in a black suit nearby said, "Noi Province suspects the case is related to the victims' dreams, but no evidence has been found yet. I think we should investigate from another angle."

The bearded man turned to ask, "From what angle?"

"From the perspective of illusion techniques, the state these people are in is very similar to being under an illusion. I know of an Illusion Master named Moyadi; we can invite him over to see if it's related to illusion techniques."
