An Indescribable Mental Contamination

Yu Ba threw the stone statue he was holding onto the ground.

Then he lunged at Mi Lan: "Delete the photos for me!"

Mi Lan nimbly dodged, running away while saying, "I won't delete it, hahahaha."

Lu Zhe watched from the side, feeling his face stiffen. Yes, that was the feeling. He had been teased like this by Senior Mi Lan countless times before.

Although they were all minor matters, well, people are creatures who care about their image, and sometimes being teased too badly is unacceptable.

They might even embarrass themselves in front of others, leaving behind embarrassing memories that they wish they would never see again.

Lu Zhe watched as Yu Ba, his face contorted with rage, tried to grab Mi Lan, but Mi Lan was not as quick as him to catch his impotent fury.

I completely empathize.

However, he would absolutely not step forward to help, as that would only draw Senior Mi Lan's attention to himself.

Yu Ba chased after Mi Lan for a while, but when he realized he couldn't catch up, he had no choice but to give up. He then saw Mi Lan holding a phone, seemingly sending his photo to someone else.

Yu Ba thought: Oh well, it's just a few ugly photos, it's okay, people will forget about it in a few days.

Isn't it just that his cool guy image has been shattered?

Who among those in Supervisor hasn't faced this day?

There are even worse cases.

Compared to those Contract Anomalist who cause serious trouble, Mi Lan only plays pranks from time to time.

This comparison calmed his anger considerably.

Yu Ba asked in as calm a tone as possible, "Have you found anything strange about this place?"

Mi Lan shook her head. "There's an eerie aura everywhere here, making it impossible to pinpoint its location. If I'm not mistaken, it's probably using Ghost Domain, and we're currently within Ghost Domain."

"Senior Mi Lan, we just encountered a strange creature. Strangely, it looks exactly like a monster NPC in a tabletop RPG I found out about."

After thinking for a moment, Lu Zhe decided to tell Mi Lan this information.

Sometimes, what seems insignificant to him might become crucial intelligence to other Contract Anomalist.

"Huh? Wolf-Headed Man? Really?"

Mi Lan directly searched for photos of the Wolf-Headed Man online.

This tabletop RPG is very popular, and Wolf-Headed Man, as a frequent guest player, also has considerable online popularity.

"Senior Mi Lan, I wonder if the appearance of this Wolf-Headed Man is related to that strange creature?"

Mi Lan flipped through the list of popular NPCs in the tabletop RPG game and said meaningfully, "Let's see if any familiar faces will appear next."

"Come on, use that sphere of yours to pinpoint the strange location."

Lu Zhe summoned his own strange power and said somewhat embarrassedly, "I need to see that thing before I can pinpoint its exact location. If I haven't seen it and only have a vague idea, then I can't pinpoint its location precisely."

"For example, with that weird creature, although I know it's a weird creature, I don't know what it looks like. So, the Nondirectional Guidance Sphere will only help me find the weird creature that's closest to me."

This ability has quite a few limitations, but considering his contract is only C-level, it's not bad that he's achieved this much.

"It's alright, we can just go and find them one by one, since we'll be taking them in anyway."

Mi Lan waved her hand, appearing magnanimous.

Lu Zhe was deeply moved, never expecting that his senior would not only not criticize his abilities as useless, but also comfort him.

Yu Ba sighed silently. The newcomer was too naive, so easily exposing his shortcomings and revealing the limitations of his abilities... It seemed he would have to find some time to mention this to the logistics staff at Headquarters.

Newcomers must be mindful of confidentiality and not easily reveal their weaknesses just because they are colleagues or seniors.

Sometimes, this behavior can lead to their death.

Lu Zhe didn't think too much about it and readily revealed his shortcomings, partly because he trusted his companions and partly because he trusted Mi Lan.

Although Senior Mi Lan has a bad temper and likes to tease him and enjoys watching others suffer and get angry, these are all harmless pranks that do not actually harm anyone.

"I'm going to start locating."

Lu Zhe mobilized his mental energy and used his positioning ability.

Because the object was rather vague, he could only find the one that was closest to him.

If you're lucky, you might find their target on the first try; if you're unlucky, you'll probably need to search several times.

Anyway, they're in this place, and as long as that weirdo doesn't run away, he'll find it sooner or later.

This is also where the advantage of his ability lies.

In terms of finding a location, it is indeed a very convenient capability.

The Nondirectional Guidance Sphere bounced and looked ahead.

Within Lu Zhe's field of vision, a conspicuous mark appeared before him, indicating which direction he should proceed.

"Found it!"

Mi Lan asked him to lead the way.

Lu Zhe walked in front.

After passing through a narrow corridor and turning several corners, the group sensed an eerie presence lingering ahead.

"Holy crap..."

Lu Zhe walked at the front and, caught off guard, was directly confronted by the strange creature.

Then, he felt as if his brain had been subjected to an indescribable mental pollution.

His vision blurred.

They even heard some strange, indescribable words.

He covered his head and squatted down on the ground.

"Lu Zhe!"

Yu Ba quickly stepped forward, wanting to check on his condition.

However, as he approached, the eerie and intense presence of the creature aroused his wariness, and instinctively, he wanted to look up at it.

However, over the years, he has worked alongside the Contract Anomalist, participating in various containment missions and confronting all sorts of supernatural phenomena.

Just as he was about to instinctively look, he resisted the urge with great willpower.

The more perceptive a person is, the more sensitive they are to eerie atmospheres.

Yu Ba's ability to forcibly resist looking at the eerie things that posed a threat to him demonstrates his exceptionally strong will and rich experience as Supervisor.

He checked on Lu Zhe, who was squatting on the ground.

If no obvious external injuries were found on Lu Zhe's body, then the damage was likely internal, such as to his brain or mental state.

If it's mental power, then it's even more difficult.

"Lu Zhe, Lu Zhe..."

"Gather the strange energy within your body, try to concentrate it in your brain. This can help resist some of the damage, Lu Zhe, do you hear me?"

Yu Ba shouted loudly in his ear.

Hopefully, Lu Zhe will listen to this.
