Do You Want to Regain Your Humanity?
The man in white released him.
"Contract Anomalist can only contract with one type of supernatural entity. Contracting with multiple supernatural entities not only makes it impossible for one's mental strength to withstand the erosion of so many entities, but also causes a backlash due to the conflict between the various supernatural powers within the body."
"Then why...?"
This person is capable of controlling three different strange creatures.
"That's probably because... I'm the Chairman of the Anomaly Containment Association."
Bai Zuo curled his lip; he could tell this person was being perfunctory. What did being able to use so many strange abilities have to do with being the Chairman of the Anomaly Containment Association?
The white-robed man, who called himself the Chairman, used a spherical object to put the strange creature away.
"This is an S-rank uncanny creature— the Heart Gu. It can manipulate people's minds and absorb their malice. It might be a good partner for you."
If it were any other Contract Anomalist, one might worry that the excessive malice of the Heart Gu would overwhelm his brain, distort his thoughts, or drive him insane from the unbearable malice.
But the liberal Bai Zuo doesn't have this problem.
"Bai Zuo: No, it's too ugly, ugly and rejected."
The man in white tossed the Anomaly Cage in his hand. "Perhaps the outward appearance of the Heart Gu can be changed? After all, it's a mental-based monster."
"Change the image?" The Bai Zuo seemed thoughtful. Was it because this bizarre image was more of a reflection of human nature?
If you really want to contract something bizarre, wouldn't it be better to find something whose appearance is unsightly and can be customized to your liking?
That's acceptable.
So, under the Chairman's persuasion and rhetoric, Bai Zuo agreed to try signing a contract with this strange entity.
The man in white robes withdrew the Ghost Domain he had released.
High-rise buildings reappeared around, but they were all collapsed.
The city has suffered a high death toll, with many injured in previous car accidents and the majority trapped under collapsed buildings.
Another group of people brought about their own destruction because their brains and thoughts were maliciously distorted.
A bustling city was reduced to vast ruins in an instant.
This scene, resembling hell, terrified everyone in Haibei City who witnessed it.
How could that be?
"Weren't all those weird creatures already contained?"
"It must have been just now. Didn't that strange creature also release that black thing? It even covered and eroded a lot of that mysterious person's power at the time."
"It was probably that momentary confrontation that led to this city becoming what it is today."
"Just for a moment?"
"If it weren't for the appearance of this mysterious Chairman, destroying this city probably wouldn't have required much of his power for that strange creature, right?"
"At its size, it can simply move around within the city."
Stomp your foot and the ground reacts as if a major earthquake has struck; lift your foot and buildings collapse one after another.
"This is truly bizarre..."
"Everyone, we must take this as a warning."
The upper echelons of Haibei City gathered in the conference room, looking at the images projected onto the screen.
The horrific scene in Ze Hai City sent shivers down their spines.
This is a pain a city cannot bear; with it destroyed like this, the city is probably finished.
Even if it is rebuilt, it will never be the same Ze Hai City as before.
The eeriness drawn by the malice in people's hearts...
What is the sky trying to foreshadow?
The upper echelons of Haibei City are aware that there are some areas in Haibei City that they cannot control, but fortunately, Xia Kingdom is becoming increasingly powerful, and although there is some chaos, it is not as chaotic as Ze Hai City.
For example, the most obvious difference is that the underground forces in Haibei City cannot operate in the open; they cannot even show their faces, or they will be killed instantly.
If they act too arrogantly and cause some major incidents, they will soon face a crackdown on organized crime.
"We still need to take this seriously. Use this incident as an excuse to purge those people. You don't want our city to end up like Ze Hai City, do you?"
It is also a bustling coastal city.
In the end, half of that magnificent city was reduced to ruins.
The thought of such terrible consequences sent chills down the spines of everyone present.
"What exactly is that mysterious crystal?"
"Has the Contract Anomalist not arrived yet?"
"We've already contacted them, and they said they're on their way and will arrive in about ten minutes."
Are there any other unusual occurrences in the city?
"Police officers have been dispatched to maintain order on all streets, and no other abnormalities have been found so far."
"Be on high alert. We cannot let our guard down for a moment until the Contract Anomalist arrive."
Okay, hopefully we won't end up like that.
Ze Hai City's ordeal certainly gave these people a fright.
later.
Bai Zuo was taken to Headquarters by the Chairman.
Inside the bizarre Containment Facility, Bai Zuo learned about the process of containing bizarre entities and the methods of contracting with them.
Finally, they successfully formed a contract with the S-rank uncanny entity, the Heart Gu.
but...
Bai Zuo, who came out, was not happy. He held a furry white Spider in his hands and asked the Chairman with some displeasure, "Why did it turn out like this!"
He clearly wanted a more imposing image.
The white Spider nestled quietly in Bai Zuo's palm and even rubbed against his fingers.
"Hehe..." Chairman: "Perhaps this Heart Gu changes its form based on your subconscious?"
The Chairman patted his head. "Isn't this kind of cute? Compared to your previous appearance, this look is acceptable, right?"
"That's not what I meant, it's too small!" Bai Zuo held up the Spider in his hand; it was tiny, not even as big as his palm.
And because its head-to-body ratio is approximately 5:4, it looks very similar to a jumping spider.
Everyone witnessed this scene.
There's a strange feeling that this boy, who has suppressed his malice, is still just a child, despite his lively and competitive nature.
However, none of them dared to treat him as an ordinary child.
"Its strength has been slightly diminished, but once it absorbs the malice and grows back to its full size, it should be able to become enormous."
The Chairman answered his questions very gently, calming the boy's obviously competitive spirit.
Hearing the Chairman say this, Bai Zuo finally acknowledged the strangeness of the contract.
"My name is Bai Zuo, and I am a monster without humanity."
Bai Zuo formally introduced himself to the Chairman.
"Isn't there any humanity...?" The Chairman leaned down slightly, staring into Bai Zuo's eyes. "Who said that?"
"Anyone who 'Bai Zuo spent enough time with me and understands my true nature would think that way, right? They're not wrong."
"So... what are you looking for here? Do you want to regain your humanity?"
