Catastrophe Containment Facility
Chapter 307 - 305 Code Name: ’Pervert

Chapter 307: Chapter 305 Code Name: ’Pervert

Aside from credentials and uniform, Rangers can stay and dine for free at any Association-owned property within the entire Federation, and all travel tickets, including car and plane tickets, are on the house.

Then Wen Wen also obtained an interesting item, a Memory Eraser.

The Memory Eraser is a silver metal rod, with one end equipped with a small light that emits a special glow. If a normal person’s eyes are illuminated by this light, they enter a state of memory editing.

In this state, whatever the person holding the metal rod says, the edited person’s memory becomes that.

Each Eraser issued is bound to its owner and will self-destruct if used by anyone other than the owner.

Rangers, because they mostly operate solo, must possess the capability to autonomously erase memories, but each usage must be recorded.

After getting hold of that metal rod, Wen Wen’s expression turned mischievous, clearly contemplating some naughty ideas.

"Say, if I used this on you and told you that you like to use leaves to wipe your butt when you go to the toilet, would you actually do it?" Wen Wen asked with a wicked laugh, posing the question to the Supporter who had issued him the rod.

The Supporter stepped back, instinctively covering his own behind, hoping this guy wasn’t serious, then dryly responded, "Every usage of the Eraser has to be verified by the Association..."

"Heh heh heh."

Having satisfied his penchant for mischief, Wen Wen pocketed the Eraser and left the place with the haunting laughter of that perturbed Supporter.

After spending some more time, Wen Wen completed most of the procedures and was now considered a prospective Ranger.

In his hand, he held a thin, slightly larger than a cigarette pack device, which all Rangers possessed. It was called the Ranger Terminal.

The Terminal could replace the popular Federation smartphones for most functions except cracking walnuts, including making calls, sending texts, and so on.

Besides that, the Terminal could also be used to accept tasks issued by the Hunters Association, to access information released by the Association, even to log into the Demon Hunter website, and for satellite positioning.

To the average citizen in the Federation, this was definitely high tech.

After receiving the Ranger Terminal, Wen Wen, in front of the Supporter who dispensed the device, started to fiddle with it.

After playing with it for a while, Wen Wen began to look through some data. Rangers could browse through the Association’s wanted criminals on their Terminals, and hunting these fugitives was one of the daily tasks of a Ranger.

Members of secret organizations like Mr. L or free superpower users like Wu Wang, who were as annoying as a stir stick in the mud, were all within the scope of the wanted list.

Thinking of Wu Wang, Wen Wen browsed through the device for a while and found a wanted criminal resembling Wu Wang.

Wanted number HF1526: Game Maniac

This wanted criminal has severe mental illness, enjoys playing games with superpower users, and anyone participating in their games will fall into the Abyss if they fail even once.

True name unknown, real appearance unknown, range of action unknown, behavior pattern entirely based on whims...

Wanted Bounty: 120,000 Demon Hunting Coins.

"Should have blown this guy to bits back then; I could have collected the bounty on his head," Wen Wen scratched his chin, feeling slightly smug. A wanted criminal with such a high bounty and he had dealt with him so casually.

Then Wen Wen casually flipped through his criminal record, and the latest case happened on September 17th when he drove a freelance hunter mad in Fuxi City, Dongshan Province...

"September 17th... I should have blown him up at the beginning of September, which means..."

Wen Wen gritted his teeth so hard they made creaking noises, restraining himself from getting angry.

The fact that his last operation was on September 17th meant that Wen Wen hadn’t killed him back then. How did he survive in the presence of Catastrophe-Level strength?

Fortunately, to be on the safe side, Wen Wen hadn’t allowed Gao Fang to see anything when he dragged him into the Sanctuary, otherwise, he would have exposed all his secrets by now.

However, it still wasn’t safe. That man knew he was associated with the Catastrophe-Level Expert ’Black Cross’, so he couldn’t let him live.

Now that Wen Wen was no longer the Wen Wen of the past, he should have the strength to deal with that guy, so he accepted the mission to capture the ’Game Maniac’ without hesitation.

After accepting the mission, any intelligence about Wu Wang that the Association had would be sent to the terminal in Wen Wen’s hands immediately.

Afterward, Wen Wen thoughtfully looked at the terminal: "Speaking of which, this thing seems to have a higher technology content than the mobile phones currently in circulation in the Federation, and the same goes for the equipment used in the second assessment. When taking identification photos, they’re directly printed out as well."

"The technology in the Association seems much more advanced than the common tech in the Federation, and all of it is mature technology. Why can’t these technologies be spread? Is the Association deliberately controlling the technological development of the Federation?"

Wen Wen shook his head and stopped pondering. Unless he really became one of the high-ranking members of the Hunter Association, he wouldn’t get a real answer.

If one can’t experience it firsthand, any speculation could have errors. Wen Wen, who prided himself on being more rational than the average person, rarely drew conclusions about things he didn’t fully understand.

After completing the entire process, Wen Wen was brought before Xun Qing, which was the last step. He had to sign a new contract in front of Xun Qing.

The Demon Hunter contract he had previously signed was formally scrapped in the preceding procedures. He needed to sign a new Ranger contract here.

"Before signing the contract, you need to choose a codename. Rangers release their missions based on their codenames," Xun Qing told Wen Wen with a smile.

Wen Wen thought for a moment and said, "Then just call me ’Detective’."

Xun Qing clicked twice on the computer beside him and then shook his head, "The codename ’Detective’ is already taken."

"Then call me Great Detective. If Great Detective is not available, then Super Great Detective, or Supreme Detective are fine too," Wen Wen said as if it was a matter of course.

Xun Qing’s expression stiffened for a moment and said, "According to the codename rules for Rangers, the examples you gave cannot be taken."

Wen Wen’s eyes widened, somewhat speechless. If this won’t work and that won’t work, they might as well let him, a naming failure, die.

"Then just call me ’Pervert’," said Wen Wen, who was frustrated from having several names rejected, sarcastically.

"Although when choosing a codename, one should try to be as positive as possible..." Xun Qing drawled, "But this codename is available."

"Fine, Pervert it is. It’s just a codename to be used when accepting missions anyway," Wen Wen responded without giving it much thought.

Xun Qing kindly tried to advise: "Are you sure you want to use this codename? It could stay with you for life."

"The codenames I wanted were all rejected by you, so I have no other choice," Wen Wen said carelessly. It was just a codename, after all. At most, he would feel a bit embarrassed when it was used in the future.
