Appearance

Major Luo typically presents himself as an immaculate, composed official, though his appearance is closely tied to his obsessive cleanliness and cultivated authority.

• Usually wears a crisp military uniform and oversized sunglasses. 39 56
• Has slicked-back hair and a conventionally handsome appearance. 56 221
• Frequently wipes his hands with disinfectant wipes, even after casual contact. 3 27
• Concealed his uniform beneath a hooded cloak while attending the Ghost Market auction. 72

Personality

Major Luo views people, institutions, and death through the language of utility. Although he publicly framed Branch 36's work as a glorious service to humanity, Bai Zhou gradually concluded that his rewards, reforms, and talent recruitment were methods of extracting the maximum possible value from others. 3 27

He is proud, status-conscious, and intensely vindictive. His composure breaks when humiliated—particularly after Bai Zhou sabotages his pursuit force and outbids him at auction—yet he repeatedly responds by escalating his schemes rather than withdrawing. 39 73 78

His ultimate ambition is absolute control and self-perfection. He built a network of industrial, political, and supernatural assets in Tinghai, created clones to assemble a “perfect” body, and was willing to sacrifice Bai Zhou, Lin Sanjiu, his own creations, and his allies to complete the Saint Ascension ritual. 169 176 220

Abilities & Resources

High-Level Extraordinary Power

Major Luo was described as a high-level Extraordinary nearing Level 5, and his Spirituality could affect the surroundings during the Saint Ascension ritual. 75 203

• Retained enough power and influence to regard a Level 4 Extraordinary as part of his available backing. 56
• During the Saint Ascension ritual, appeared devoid of detectable Spirituality to a Sealed Extraordinary, suggesting that the ritual had altered or concealed his supernatural state. 221
• His precise Extraordinary Path is not identified in the provided material.

Black Warrior Cultivation

Major Luo created and controlled the Black Warriors, biologically modified tactical units infused with Black Box characteristics. 79 173

• Black Warriors are naturally contaminated and designed to adapt to varied environments. 79
• He used them as covert pursuit and encirclement forces against Bai Zhou. 82
• His secret factory produced larger, more imposing later-model Black Warriors through mechanical assembly lines, Black Boxes, and scarlet extraction tubes. 173
• Project No. 000011, the Black Warrior Cultivation Plan, was among the documented projects underpinning his rise. 176

Sky Spider Totem Network

Major Luo used a spider-themed totem system to bind operatives to himself. 169

• The death of a totem host alerts the source of the network. 169
• Hosts are rendered absolutely loyal and function as death warriors under his control. 169
• Activating the totem lets ordinary hosts overdraw their vitality for short-lived superhuman strength. 169
• Multiple hosts can resonate through their totems to form an array and greatly increase their output. 169

Political and Industrial Influence

Major Luo leveraged his official post, Purple Thorn Group connections, and commercial networks to conceal his operations. 161 169 220

• The Red-Purple Security Group monopolized security services across much of Tinghai City's school system and served as a useful cover for his schemes. 169
• He built underground bases, human-material production chains, biological-weapon facilities, and cultivation-pod laboratories. 173 176 203
• He manipulated Tinghai authorities through their secrets and desires. 220

Equipment

• Jade Pendant — A specially made Purple Thorn Group identity pendant capable of teleportation; one was given to each of the founder's three sons. 78
• Midnight Compass — Purchased at auction; can locate a target nightly using their name and birth information, with related information such as a photograph serving as an imperfect substitute. 79
• Mechanical Briefcase — His officers and private forces use these devices to deploy or fuse with mechanical equipment. 39 55

History

Branch 36 and Evening City

As the Major of Special Management Department Branch 36, Luo Tunan received survivors brought back from Wancheng and declared that their contamination from the Reflection Ruins Realm made releasing them into society impossible. He offered Bai Zhou a place in the organization, presenting the Department's work as a cause of “supreme glory.” 3

His reforms initially appeared humane: Branch 36 had ceased using death-row inmates as P0.5 expendable personnel after his arrival. However, testimony within the base suggested that higher-ranking personnel had instead become easier to sacrifice, while Bai Zhou came to suspect that Luo's professed respect for talent concealed an interest in obtaining “raw material.” 26 27

Conflict with Bai Zhou

After Bai Zhou began investigating Deputy Han and the Department, Luo became an increasingly direct adversary. During the Blood Worship Cult crisis, he treated fallen cultists as recoverable “materials” and deployed a private elite unit—including five Level 3 Extraordinaries—to locate Deputy Han. 39

Bai Zhou's escape and sabotage humiliated Luo, whose obsessive cleanliness made the resulting explosion and sewage deluge especially infuriating. He swore to hunt Bai Zhou down, later committing Black Warriors, Sword Bearers, and the Level 4 Extraordinary Van Gogh to the pursuit. 39 56 57 82

At the Ghost Market, Luo—acting under a cloak as the Third Young Master of Zijing Company—lost a bidding war for Moon God's Tear against Bai Zhou. He was publicly embarrassed after accusing Bai Zhou of false bidding, then paid heavily for the Bottle of Regret to recover some face. 72 73

Hidden Operations

While maintaining the public image of a Special Management Department hero and Purple Thorn Group heir, Luo built a concealed network of human trafficking, talent trade, Black Warrior cultivation, and anomalous experimentation. 161 173 176

He was linked to the Yuanmeng Middle School incident, where Bai Zhou and Ya discovered him feeding a grotesque mass of flesh and the Hanging Girl. The blood vessels connected to the entity resembled the Black Box item Legacy of Blood Thirst. 92

Bai Zhou later infiltrated Luo's underground factory, witnessing branding rituals that converted recruits into loyal workers, biological weapons being manufactured from Black Boxes, and empty cultivation pods associated with nine mysterious figures. The ninth figure was Teacher Sun bearing Luo's face. 173

Saint Ascension Plan and Death

Luo's final scheme, the Saint Ascension Plan, was exposed after an explosion revealed an underground base beneath Longluo Private Middle School. He prepared a midnight ritual with Liu Jia/Chi while authorities converged on the site. 203

He revealed himself as the mastermind behind Tinghai's events and disclosed that he had created nine clones of himself, each possessing a perfect organ. The clones were sacrificed to assemble a “perfect, saintly body,” while Bai Zhou and Lin Sanjiu were intended as the final living sacrifices. 220

Major Luo ultimately died following the collapse of his plan. Bai Zhou declined to fulfill Luo's Last Will—whose ambition was to command Tinghai and then “the sea of stars”—but retained it within the Sleeping Totoro Backpack. 224

Relationships

• Bai Zhou — Enemy and intended sacrifice. Luo initially recruited him into Branch 36, later devoted his private forces and broader network to killing or capturing him. 3 56 220
• Deputy Han — Subordinate and collaborator. Luo ordered his officers to find Han after the Blood Worship Cult battle and relied on him in Branch 36's hidden operations. 39
• Ya — Bai Zhou's mentor and an investigator who identified the cloaked Ghost Market bidder as Major Luo through his Jade Pendant and Art Club connection. 78
• Liu Jia / Chi — Associate in the Saint Ascension Plan; met Luo at the underground altar before the ritual. 203
• Deputy Director Liu — Loyal accomplice willing to aid Luo's plans and sacrifice himself for them. 220
• Elder Brother — An unnamed superior within the Purple Thorn Group who reprimanded Luo for interfering with the attempt on Bai Zhou's life. 101
• Nine Dragons of the Luo Family — Luo's nine clones, each created with a perfect organ and ultimately used in his ritual. 220
