Their Deaths Have Nothing to Do with Us
Ultimately, it's just that the brain was affected by something strange.
The logistics staff sighed when Xia Yun told them that Mi Lan had used her powers on her brain.
The brain is the most mysterious and uncontrollable organ.
Those who contract with the Contract Anomalist undergo physical transformations due to the supernatural energy they possess, and their personalities are already influenced by it.
Many Contract Anomalist are mentally unstable; mad Contract Anomalist are the norm.
The higher the level of Contract Anomalist, the more strange energy they absorb, and the more they are affected by it.
If their personality is naturally meticulous and determined, then it's fine; they'll know how to restrain themselves when using their abilities.
However, some people are more daring, disregarding the consequences and indulging their emotions recklessly, which can lead to irreversible consequences.
The contract's strangeness is indeed safe and controllable.
However, the Contract Anomalist is, after all, human. Humans have all kinds of emotions. The supernatural can be controlled, but people cannot.
Influenced by emotions.
The Contract Anomalist will do some intolerable mistakes.
The logistics personnel at Headquarters, who had handled so much of the Contract Anomalist, were well aware of the consequences.
It simply means lowering the rating of this Contract Anomalist and Supervisor Contract Anomalist.
The logistics staff quickly filled out a report, saying, "Mi Lan is young and has a playful and willful personality. You can tell from his daring to provoke Lord Bai Zuo that he is just like those spoiled children, reckless and unrestrained."
Therefore, instead of restraining herself and controlling her emotions, Mi Lan indulges herself and enjoys herself to the fullest.
A rampage became an inevitable event.
Sooner or later, it will happen one day.
"Based on our observations and psychological assessments of Mi Lan, Headquarters has already developed several preventative measures. However, Mi Lan has never made a mistake in previous missions, so we never expected this to happen on his very first day leading a new recruit."
"I'm very sorry that this happened on your first mission, sirs. It's our fault for not doing a good job."
Deng Tao: "This has nothing to do with you. Although I knew that Contract Anomalist was a dangerous job, I never imagined that besides the eerie threats, you yourself would be the greatest danger."
His tone was full of emotion.
Clearly, facing a senior's outburst was a huge psychological shock for him as a newcomer, almost enough to leave him with psychological trauma.
Xia Yun was also drinking a beverage to calm her nerves.
Doing missions is tiring enough, not only do you have to deal with those bizarre creatures with ever-evolving abilities, but you also have to ensure the safety of ordinary people and find ways to contain those creatures.
Unexpectedly, we also have to guard against the mental health issues of other Contract Anomalist.
She sensed the dwindling eerie energy within her body, and the Black Thorn she had bound to.
Perhaps she contracted with a plant-based supernatural entity; so far, she has not felt any impact on her emotions or mental state.
Could the extent of the impact be related to the bizarre nature of the contract?
Or perhaps the period of her contract's strangeness was too short, and the effects hadn't yet manifested?
In any case, Xia Yun couldn't imagine that she would be affected by her emotions to the point of becoming a completely different person. No, saying she would become a different person wouldn't be accurate; she would simply amplify her negative emotions.
She wondered what would happen if she lost control. Would someone like herself, who loved extreme sports and sought thrills and challenges, also do something irrational and harmful to others?
Xia Yun fell into deep thought.
Deng Tao took the towel handed to him by the logistics staff and wiped the blood and sweat off his body while pondering.
Then he asked, "How does Headquarters handle situations like this Contract Anomalist goes berserk?"
The logistics personnel replied, "Generally, we will dispatch a powerful Contract Anomalist to suppress the attack forcefully, minimizing the damage, and then determine the Contract Anomalist's guilt based on the casualties caused on-site."
The logistics staff adjusted their glasses. "Rest assured, Headquarters will not impose the death penalty on Contract Anomalist Contract Anomalist who cause significant casualties or serious consequences."
"Even if all the ordinary people caught up in this abnormal event die?" Deng Tao understood the implication in his words.
"You're joking. Those ordinary people caught up in the strange events wouldn't have survived if it weren't for Contract Anomalist's rescue."
The logistics staff's statement was callous, but it was also true.
"The process of Contract Anomalist containing anomalies is inherently fraught with danger; therefore, Headquarters never requires Contract Anomalist to ensure the safety of everyone involved during a mission."
"Save them if you can, abandon them if you can't. Containing the supernatural is the top priority."
"Your choice to save ordinary people is their good fortune, and also a testament to your kindness."
"You cannot save those ordinary people, and that is their misfortune. Who told them to be unlucky enough to be caught up in these strange events? Only a few can be saved; most die in the mouths of the supernatural."
"According to incomplete statistics, the number of people dying from bizarre events every day has reached five thousand. This is in a country like Xia Kingdom, where there is a safety buff during the day; the number of foreigners is even higher."
"It's impossible to save it completely, but if the Contract Anomalist can contain one of the monsters, then it can prevent it from causing even greater harm. From a macro perspective, this is a truly beneficial thing for humanity as a whole."
That's what the logistics staff said.
Actually, he only dared to say that because both of these Contract Anomalist were newcomers and seemed to have easy-going personalities.
Deng Tao: "You mean ordinary people who die in the mouths of strange creatures are the same as those who die accidentally or are murdered?"
Logistics personnel. "Their deaths have nothing to do with the Contract Anomalist, or with us."
Xia Yun pointed to the movie theater behind her, enveloped in a bloody aura. "Is this none of our business either?"
The logistics staff sighed, "Therefore, Mi Lan will receive the punishment she deserves, but it shouldn't be too severe."
He observed the Ghost Domain that had appeared over the movie theater through the rearview mirror. "After all, the Ghost Domain hasn't spread beyond the movie theater; an A-level Contract Anomalist's Ghost Domain extends far beyond this."
Both newlyweds nodded to indicate that they understood.
"However, these words should not be spoken by someone as lowly as me, a mere logistics staff member."
After the logistics personnel drove them back to Headquarters, they raised their hands to their chests and bowed to them, saying, "You've worked hard on this mission."
The two newlyweds were embarrassed by his respectful attitude and quickly waved their hands, telling him not to be so polite.
After hurriedly seeing the person off, they exchanged a glance and sighed.
I'm exhausted, not just physically but also mentally.
