Better Called a Curse

Mr. Tan observed from the side for a while.

Having confirmed that the Chairman hadn't told it anything, it could only fulfill its role as a good subordinate and explain on behalf of its superior.

"This... ma'am, perhaps you are not familiar with our organization."

"Our Anomaly Containment Association is a harmonious, friendly, peace-loving, and very serious organization." Those who are unfriendly and unpeaceful are all eliminated by them.

They say they cherish peace, who dares to disagree?

With five social insurances and one housing fund, generous benefits, and logistical and medical support, isn't this a legitimate organization?

"Not only does he hold an important position protecting the world."

"And we must also uphold the continuity of human reason."

"And we have always fought against the supernatural, containing and suppressing them."

Weird: "Weird?" Is it a ghost like it?

"No, the supernatural is a completely different kind of existence from you," Mr. Tan continued, explaining that the supernatural is the enemy of humanity, and that its purpose is to eat and kill people.

The monster asked in surprise, "Does it kill just anyone?"

Mr. Tan: "That's right."

"Those who haven't done anything wrong?"

"It treats all living beings equally."

The monster clenched its fist. "I understand now. This kind of eeriness shouldn't exist."

"What do you want to do? I'll do whatever you want."

Mr. Tan: "That's why I said our Anomaly Containment Association is a legitimate organization. Here's an employee contract; would you like to take a look, ma'am?"

Although this strange job is rather odd, as special ghosts, they would treat it with great caution, even if they were using it as a test subject for research.

After all, it's the only one.

If something goes wrong, where will they find another soul to study?

The strange creature, completely bewildered, was persuaded by Mr. Tan to sign an employee contract and voluntarily become a test subject for the Research Department.

To be honest, Mr. Tan's persuasive skills and emotional intelligence are far superior to Mr. G's.

If it were Mr. G, his mouth is so sharp-tongued that he could probably drive everyone away.

This is probably what makes the S-class employee cards different; each one has its own unique personality.

Those employees were rather ordinary. Although they each had their own personalities, they all seemed to lack their own ideas, like overworked corporate slaves who had completely lost the ability to think.

Shen Yu placed the strange creature in the Research Department.

He quickly wandered out again.

As for what happened next, Mr. G and Mr. Tan were there to handle it.

Why are the employees being exploited like this? As the Chairman, he should bear some responsibility.

There's nothing I can do; he's very busy too.

Shen Yu found an open space.

His thoughts before he began the experiment.

Blue Star is a technological world.

It's just one planet.

After a person dies, a soul does not form, so there are no ghosts.

Once the Research Department figurees out how to preserve a person's soul and stabilize it so that it doesn't dissipate soon after its birth, or if it can be reincarnated according to the laws of nature...

Therefore, the dead have the possibility of being resurrected.

Mr. G and Mr. Tan certainly understood his thoughts.

I've now put aside other research and started focusing on this.

"Space, the laws of space."

"Since space also has laws, could there also be laws related to the soul?"

He began to study various strange abilities.

What exactly is this strange ability based on? Is it a set of rules?

So what are these rules?

I have a feeling that once he masters this ability, he will be able to control different laws.

Shen Yu pulled a weak, Wandering Soul- level monster out of the Containment Facility.

This Wandering Soul has no ability to attack on its own.

It looks like a gecko.

Its entire body is purplish-black with concentric rings of patterns.

This color indicates that it is highly poisonous.

Anyone who touches it will experience skin ulceration.

Without timely treatment, the body will ulcerate and the patient will die, a process that often lasts up to a week.

Shen Yu grabbed it directly.

It paused, then looked at Shen Yu with its two movable eyes. Shen Yu Heart Gu to connect with its thoughts.

Its idea is very simple.

It smells delicious, I want to eat it.

That's all.

It rolled over, trying to bite Shen Yu's fingers.

But when Shen Yu grabbed it, even though his fingers were on its belly, it couldn't get its head to bite.

It couldn't figure out why it couldn't bite, so it kept turning its head to bite.

Shen Yu began to study its abilities.

"Wandering Soul- level monster, it has no special abilities, only that its skin carries a deadly poison; touching it will cause its entire body to fester and die."

"Without Contract Anomalist to remove the strange energy tainting the wound, even if this person goes to the hospital, the doctors will not be able to cure them."

"This ability, rather than being poison, is more like a curse, isn't it?"

Shen Yu began his research in this direction.

However, I haven't figured it out yet.

He brought his finger to its mouth.

It was about to bite down, but some unseen rule was at work, causing it to open its mouth, yet it couldn't bring itself to bite down.

It smells delicious and I really want to eat it, but I can't attack this person.

So it put Shen Yu's finger in its mouth.

Shen Yu twitched his lips, pulled his finger out, and wiped it with a tissue with a look of disgust.

I still felt nauseous after wiping it, so I washed my hands again.

The gecko remained strangely dazed, completely unaware that it was being rejected.

"Does this mean that even after being released from the Containment Facility, the contained anomalies won't attack me?"

This was a rule he wasn't aware of before.

He wouldn't release the strange creatures he'd already contained just for fun.

"But why do all these strange creatures think I smell and taste delicious? What is it about my body that attracts them?"

As for his blood type, it's very ordinary; it's not a rare blood type, nor is it a national treasure blood type.

No abnormalities have been found in any of my physical examinations since I was a child.

Shen Yu studied it for a while but couldn't figure it out.

So they locked the Wandering Soul back inside.

He produced a Infinity Fragment.

This is the reward he received after completing the Character Card Dungeon.

The fragments contain the laws of space, so he can control the laws of space through them.

This shows that the laws exist, but a medium is needed to observe these laws in order to learn, study, understand, and then master them.

Could those eerie phenomena serve as a medium?

He was thinking of something.

He took out a previously acquired D-grade Anomaly Artifact, Bleeding Coat.

Because during this period, the Shop has seen the release of higher-level Anomaly Artifact that can conceal one's presence.

He usually wears another Anomaly Artifact, so as long as the strange creature doesn't touch him, it can't detect his presence.
