Chapter 284: Chapter 282 Two New Containment Officers

"Of course what I said is true, and if you’re lucky, you might even get closer," Wen Wen replied with a smile. By the looks of it, Zhangsun Jing seemed ready to agree.

Zhangsun Jing took a deep breath and then asked seriously, "You’re not trying to make me an undercover agent in the Hunter Association or turn me into a killing machine, are you?"

"Of course not, the duty of our Catastrophe Containment Facility is to identify threats..." Wen Wen began to recite a familiar set of spiel to Zhangsun Jing.

"Then... it’s a deal!"

Zhangsun Jing agreed before even hearing the whole thing.

He was willing to pay any price to restore his abilities. If Wen Wen was deceiving him, then he would simply commit suicide; he didn’t want to live like this for another day.

Wen Wen was taken aback for a moment, then a chrysanthemum-like smile bloomed on his face.

Then, with unprecedented pleasure, he signed a contract with Zhangsun Jing and went straight back to the Sanctuary.

Zhangsun Jing’s abilities would be restored after some time, for helping him regain his powers was also part of the contract. Just like ensuring Gong Baoding’s survival, the Sanctuary’s power would stimulate Zhangsun Jing’s abilities to return them to their original state.

Apart from superpower users like Heng An who were kidnapped by other forces, as long as it was a problem intrinsic to the superpower user themselves, the Sanctuary’s power could generally solve it.

"Speaking of which, that guy’s pursuit of strength is a bit too fervent, which might attract some trouble later."

"However, it’s precisely people with such fervor who would work hard at capturing monsters for the sake of enhancing their strength."

In any case, Wen Wen was relatively satisfied with Zhangsun Jing as a Containment Officer, but recruiting just him wasn’t enough.

So he continued to sift through those bubbles and murmured as he searched, "Including me, there are already five men in the Sanctuary. It’s too yang without enough yin. It’s time to recruit a female Containment Officer to balance things out."

Then, Wen Wen’s gaze landed on a tigress.

Hmm... not a nickname, but an actual tigress.

Wen Wen stroked his chin, marveling, "Strange, can animals also become Containment Officers?"

The information on the bubble indicated that the biggest problem for this tiger was its abilities, a problem that the Sanctuary seemed able to solve.

Driven by strong curiosity, Wen Wen decided to see if he could turn this tiger into a Containment Officer.

"It’s all been people so far, adding an animal to balance it out wouldn’t be bad."

When Wen Wen appeared before the tiger, it was lying in a bathtub covered with shower gel. Because of the tiger’s thick fur, the entire bathtub was submerged in foam.

Upon seeing Wen Wen’s sudden appearance, the tigress let out a scream like that of a young girl, covered her body, and yelled at Wen Wen, "Ah! There’s a pervert!"

Just by the voice, one would think she was a great beauty, but looking at the tiger’s robust body gave Wen Wen a bizarre illusion as if he were watching a cartoon.

"Uh... sorry."

Though he apologized, Wen Wen still stared directly at the tiger in the bathroom; he had never seen a talking tiger before.

"Ah, you’re still looking!"

The tiger was on the verge of tears and then, with a burst of courage, she jumped out of the tub and snarled at Wen Wen, her body emitting a deep rumbling sound, clearly about to attack Wen Wen.

Wen Wen was silent for two seconds, then pointed at her body and said, "...you’re a tiger, I shouldn’t need to avert my eyes, right?"

"Oh, right, I am a tiger now."

The tiger glanced at its body as the frizz in its fur settled back into place, and sprawled on the ground, methodically licking its fur, it asked Wen Wen with a meow, "Even if you didn’t do anything wrong by peeking at me bathing, you barged into my home without a sound. You owe me an explanation, otherwise I’ll eat you, meow."

Once communication was established, Wen Wen switched into persuasive mode, "You’ve been troubled by your abilities, haven’t you? I can resolve your worries, but you’ll have to join our Catastrophe Containment Facility. Our sanctuary is dedicated to safeguarding the world, and joining us will definitely be to your benefit."

The tiger felt tempted—her abilities were strong, but they caused her much distress: "But I am a Demon Hunter, meow."

"It doesn’t matter. The work of the Containment Officers doesn’t conflict with that of Demon Hunters. When on the job, just refrain from killing monsters and opt to send them to the sanctuary instead. One job, two salaries—where else could you find such a good deal?"

"Really?..." The tiger started to count with her claws, clearly swayed by Wen Wen’s words.

Seeing the tiger, who was probably only slightly smarter than a curly-haired baboon, Wen Wen felt a twinge of guilt, as if he were taking advantage of a child.

"So, after I join, can you really solve my ability problem?" the tiger asked with wide eyes.

"Rest assured, it’s written in the contract. If we can’t solve your issue, you can leave anytime you want."

Seeing that the tiger was genuinely being persuaded, Wen Wen immediately discarded that sliver of guilt. Not taking advantage of such an easy target would be the real crime.

Next, Wen Wen squatted in front of the tiger, explained the pros and cons, and only after making sure multiple times did the tiger press her paw onto the contract.

Actually, not just with the tiger—even with Zhangsun Jing, who was wholly focused on pursuing strength, Wen Wen made sure to clarify everything.

After all, Wen Wen wanted employees who would help the sanctuary thrive, not disposable tools, so while he could smooth-talk during persuasion, he had to ensure they weren’t being deceived when it came to signing the contract.

With everything settled, Wen Wen returned to the sanctuary feeling completely rejuvenated. Easily handling the recruitment of two containment officers improved his mood immensely.

Feeling good, Wen Wen decided to find some entertainment, and that’s when he remembered what Chu Wei had mentioned about the ’Biluochun Scroll’.

It had to be said, that woman’s voice was very pleasant to the ear. Wen Wen had merely listened through his headset briefly and already felt an itch in his heart.

So, he took out his phone, found her channel, and started listening to the woman coquettishly charm her audience.

"Hmm... no wonder Chu Wei turned into a brainless fan with such a lovely voice."

After a while, Wen Wen grew somewhat unsatisfied, so he snapped his fingers, and Magic Mirror Gidro appeared before him.

"Great master, what would you like to see this time? Based on your last preferences, I’ve collected many high-quality resources," Gidro said with a bow and scrape to Wen Wen.

"Something light this time. Show me that Biluochun Scroll—I’m curious, her voice sounds so nice."

The anticipation in Wen Wen’s eyes grew as the image on the magic mirror began to change. He felt a bit smug; others could only listen to the voice, but he could see the person live on the spot.

But as the image on the magic mirror became clearer, the smile on Wen Wen’s face faded.

"Ah! Why do this to me, why do this to me!"

He snatched up the magic mirror, flung it away, and then began stomping on it relentlessly.

Amidst Wen Wen’s frantic footwork, one could see a mirror reflection of an aunty sitting on the bed, picking at her feet while cooing and acting cute.

This turn of events thoroughly destroyed the joy Wen Wen had felt at recruiting two containment officers. He filled a cat-ear cup with a whole cup of eye drops and splashed it in his eyes with a splash.

"Ah... my spirit has been contaminated. Better play some games for a while."

Wen Wen then booted up his computer and started playing a tank game, pressing F to enter the tank...
