Chapter 469: Chapter 467: Containment Officer 72609

After returning to the Sanctuary, Wen Wen immediately continued recruiting Containment Officers non-stop.

This time he needed to recruit quite a few Containment Officers, and he had to carefully select and observe each one.

It wasn’t necessary to recruit only those whose hearts were pure, but at the very least, he couldn’t bring in utter scum dripping with bad intentions or those guaranteed to cause trouble and act foolishly.

Thus, Wen Wen spent a great deal of time and effort, taking a full three days just to send out all the invitations.

This time, the scope of Containment Officers Wen Wen was recruiting was very broad, except for a You Han, he didn’t recognize any of the other superpower users within his sights.

Among them were veteran Demon Hunters from the Hunter Association, as well as superpower users like Lin Huan, who were hiding among ordinary people for various reasons.

There were even superpower users who had joined Secret Organizations out of dire straits but were always thinking about being snitches from within the darkness.

Profane Blood, Glory Church, the Society of the Last Words... Wen Wen issued invitations to four superpower users from different Secret Organizations.

After being busy for three days, Wen Wen sent out nearly thirty invitations to Containment Officers. As for how many would respond, deep down, he had no certainty.

But at least there should be about seventeen or eighteen. With so many Containment Officers joining, the team would grow stronger. After a period of time to adjust and integrate, Wen Wen planned to proceed with the next phase of expansion.

Some candidates would decline Wen Wen’s invitation, but he wasn’t worried. If they disagreed, the invitation would disappear after some time, and they would forget the relevant details.

"In two more days, the Containment Officer assembly will take place. I’m quite curious to see how many people will show up this time. The assembly hall that can accommodate thousands has always been too spacious. This time it can be a bit livelier at least."

...

Early the next morning, Gu Dapeng found Lin Huan and paid the remaining ninety thousand yuan.

It must be said that if other Demon Hunters charged the same rate, the Hunters Association might have gone bankrupt...

If he had obtained this money at any other time, he would certainly have spent it extravagantly, but now he was caught in a dilemma about whether to join the Sanctuary.

If he didn’t join the Sanctuary, then he might do as he’d said before: work for a while longer, save enough money, and then retire to his hometown.

But circumstances had changed. Lin Huan now knew his abilities could be further developed, and this realization filled his mind like wild grass, occupying his thoughts with everything about the Sanctuary.

He poured over the containment contract back and forth for more than a day and, after various speculations concluded that as long as the contract wasn’t a farce, he wouldn’t be at a loss. Finally, he signed his name.

The moment his signature was added, Lin Huan passed out.

When he woke up again, he immediately noticed the changes to his body without needing any tests.

He had become stronger, and even breathing felt much smoother. For the first time since his birth, he felt so wonderful.

Lin Huan had congenital osteogenesis imperfecta since he was a child, prone to fractures, and was raised like a china doll. Limited mobility made him especially fond of fantasy.

Later, after witnessing his father’s death, his strong imagination constantly replayed the scene, and in the midst of those relentless, terrifying fantasies, he awakened the ability to create frightening illusions.

It was because of that ability that he overcame his congenital osteogenesis imperfecta and became a superpower user.

But it was also because of his innate condition that, even as a superpower user, his body remained on the frail side.

A regular superpower user, not to speak of those with physically enhancing abilities, but even those focusing on offensive powers were much stronger than an average person, capable of handling a fight with the likes of Master Ye with just a bit of training.

But if Lin Huan were to engage in hand-to-hand combat, he probably couldn’t even beat a high school student.

And now, he felt full of Strength!

No, not just Strength, but it seemed his abilities had also changed to some extent.

Now he could intensify illusions, and the injuries one suffered within the illusion could be reflected in reality to a certain degree!

As long as the opponent didn’t have the ability to directly dispel the illusion, they were at Lin Huan’s mercy!

"With these abilities, I no longer have to hide in dark corners like a rat, scaring people. I can kill them with my illusions!"

This had been Lin Huan’s dream for the several years he ran the Supernatural Detective Agency, and now just by signing his name, his dream had come true, filling him with joy.

At the same time, he grew even more curious about the Catastrophe Containment Facility.

Following the instructions provided in the contract, he entered the Sanctuary in person for the first time.

As soon as he entered the Sanctuary, the first thing he saw was the metal-suited man standing on the platform in the Central Area.

The metal-suited man beckoned to Lin Huan, who obediently walked over, sensing the powerful Qi emitting from this not quite human being, enough to crush him.

Seeing Lin Huan approaching, the metal-suited man felt a genuine delight.

Over these three days, a fair number of new Containment Officers had arrived one after another. With the addition of these lively new officers, the Sanctuary was gradually coming back to life.

If things continued at this pace, perhaps one day the Sanctuary could indeed return to its former glory!

"Welcome, new Containment Officer. Your codename is 72609. Please collect your..."

After a formal conversation, Lin Huan gained some basic understanding of the Sanctuary and also received his own set of gear.

In addition to the Containment Officer uniform and the chains for binding Monsters, there was also a set of black Great Cloaks.

Once donned, a black Runes pattern of the Custodian Badge would emerge in front of the face, which concealed the wearer’s identity without affecting their vision.

As the number of Containment Officers gradually increased, Wen Wen had put some thought into how to conceal their identities.

They could form small groups with familiar Containment Officers but couldn’t allow one officer to know the identities of everyone; that would be too dangerous.

Therefore, he specifically crafted these Great Cloaks, which could distort vision and twist voices, and with the interference of Qi in the assembly venue, they were perfect for concealing the identities of the Containment Officers.

With Wen Wen’s current mastery of Runes, creating these cloaks was not difficult.

He simply made some modifications to an existing robe while he was crafting spears, and thus completed the making of these items.

Having received the cloak, Lin Huan thanked the metal-suited man and then set out to explore the Sanctuary properly.

Before he left, the metal-suited man reminded him, "There will be a meeting for Containment Officers this afternoon. It will be very helpful for a newcomer like you, remember to attend."

"A meeting of Containment Officers, where I can see others... I’m quite looking forward to it."
