Chapter 361: Chapter 359 Locking on the Target

If Rodney had been in his right mind, he surely would have realized that Wen Wen was actually inquiring about the location of their base. But in his current state, he could not think so clearly. He only felt that Wen Wen was asking some irrelevant questions.

Next, Wen Wen used similar tactics to draw information out of the now mentally challenged Rodney, who spilled everything to Wen Wen without any reservations.

From how many people they had to the strength of their most powerful experts, and what type of abilities they possessed, Wen Wen now had a rough idea about all of these.

The only issue was that Wen Wen felt an inexplicable sense of shame in tricking someone who was mentally challenged, as if he was taking candy from a child by exploiting his superior intellect.

However, with shameless acts comes habituation. Eventually, Wen Wen even managed to extract information about the Faceless Demon’s special hobbies.

After finishing the interrogation, Wen Wen gave Rodney a bit of Frenzy as a reward for a little excitement, then he moved to another cell, snapped his fingers, and summoned Magic Mirror Gidro. Now, he wanted to verify the truth of Rodney’s words.

"I want to see the abandoned Kowei Group battery processing factory in the southern suburbs of Lu Gang City... Show the view from a hundred meters in the air!"

No sooner had he spoken than Gidro sprang into action, slowly forming a tiny winged eyeball made entirely of magical power above the target area of the abandoned factory.

The Magic Mirror’s ability was bordering on wishful thinking if used to spy on superpower users inside buildings or eavesdrop on their conversations, because the Magic Eye it conjured was too conspicuous.

Yet, when employed for observation in the wilderness, it was extremely effective. As Wen Wen was doing now, from a distance of a hundred meters, such a small eyeball was unlikely to be noticed by the demons inside the battery factory.

Average superpower users simply couldn’t extend their Inspiration a hundred meters away. A user like Wen Wen could do it if necessary, but the effort would be far too draining, hence his Inspiration was usually confined to an area of twenty to thirty meters around him.

Then, Wen Wen controlled the Magic Eye to continually zoom in on the view it saw until he finally noticed people in white suits walking around inside the factory!

"Target, locked!"

Wen Wen controlled the Magic Eye to hover above the area for a while, comparing the information he had gathered with the information Rodney had given, until he was certain of his target.

If it had been the usual Wen Wen, he probably would have reported this by now. But this time, he did not. He planned to reap as many benefits as he could for himself before reporting anything.

Moreover, he had a bold idea he wanted to try out.

...

Wen Wen asked Xu Hai, "The clothes I ordered you to make, have you finished them?"

"They’ve been made entirely according to your wishes, my lord, guaranteed to meet your requirements," Xu Hai assured Wen Wen, bowing and nodding as he presented a huge box to Wen Wen.

Inside this box, there were large robes with hoods, all red and black, made from the finest materials available on the market. While not as good as some superpower materials, they were still rather sturdy and durable.

Making clothes was one of Xu Hai’s hobbies, apart from creating little Puppets. A person capable of crafting ultra-realistic dolls naturally also had the skill to make clothes for them.

All these robes were predominantly red with a large inverted cross on the back. They were the uniform Wen Wen had prepared for the Monsters he would send on missions.

In the future, whenever Wen Wen’s Monsters went out to carry out orders, he would have them wear such robes. Wen Wen intended to fabricate a new monstrous power.

And this monster force is a subordinate of the Catastrophe-Level Expert ’Black Cross’, also known as the Calamity Prison Supervisor, which is Wen Wen’s strongest alias.

Yes, this time Wen Wen was preparing to lead his monsters to attack the demon stronghold!

According to the intelligence obtained from Rodney, the leader of these demons possessed Disaster Intermediate Sequence strength and had four Disaster Level underlings, while the number of Catastrophe Area and Calamity Level monsters was at least twenty to thirty, or even more.

If he relied solely on himself, Wen Wen could only sneak in attacks, grab some benefits, and then run away. After doing it a couple of times, those demons would definitely relocate.

The other option was to report to the Hunters Association, like with the encirclement and suppression of Profane Blood, and eradicate them. But by doing so, Wen Wen would only gain negligible benefits.

With either method, Wen Wen could not make significant gains.

Therefore, Wen Wen planned to first launch an attack using his monsters, while also reporting the incident in his Ranger identity, and then try to gain as much benefit as possible with the monsters before the Hunters Association arrived.

Afterwards, once the Association’s assistance arrived, he would make use of the Sanctuary for evacuation, leaving the heavily damaged demons for the Hunters Association to deal with.

In this way, he could obtain the maximum benefits, assess the strength of the monsters under his command, and fully exterminate the demons, essentially killing several birds with one stone.

In terms of power, Wen Wen and his side were not much weaker than those demons; actually, it could be said they were evenly matched.

When he used the Twelve-Fold Philosophy Bracelet, he could be considered a Disaster Intermediate Sequence superpower user, and the other monsters under his command were similar in level to those demons!

As the number of Containment Officers increased, they continued to capture monsters for the Sanctuary, and although the number of Disaster Level monsters remained at the four personally captured by Wen Wen, the number of Catastrophe and Calamity Level monsters had clearly increased.

Since Wen Wen could only utilize half the strength of these lower-level monsters, they were mostly of no use in normal times, but this situation was perfect for them to be put to good use.

Lastly, the Monster Study activity, which Wen Wen had always insisted on holding, had created a positive atmosphere among the monster group. Although these monsters had not turned good, they had become more obedient than before.

Once he had made up his mind, Wen Wen, carrying that large box, appeared at the Catastrophe Area cells, as he planned to start chain implantation with the monsters from the Catastrophe Area.

The monsters from the Calamity Area were too weak, and Wen Wen had decided not to deploy them for this large-scale operation, while those from the Disaster Area were too powerful and required more finesse with the chain implantation technique before he could attempt it on them.

Wen Wen’s first target was, of course, Tao Qingqing, whom he had kept as a pet. The opportunity to get out was actually a good thing for these monsters, and good things should start with those closest to him.

When Wen Wen entered Tao Qingqing’s cell, she was wearing a cute green dinosaur pajama set, sitting on the carpet in a duck posture, licking an ice cream made with blood, and watching a soap opera.

After being confined by Wen Wen for so long, Tao Qingqing had begun to develop more and more in the direction of a typical homebody. At first, her favorite things to watch were gloomy, deeply vengeful ones, but now they were becoming more and more normalized.

Upon seeing Wen Wen come in, Tao Qingqing took off the hood of her dinosaur pajamas and looked up at Wen Wen, who was standing at the entrance of the cell with hands behind his back, with shining eyes, asking, "Did you bring me something nice again this time?"

"Mhm, it’s something really good."

Wen Wen’s hands behind his back were toying with the ominous Black Chains. He was somewhat reluctant in his heart to implant such cold chains into such a cute little pet...
