Hijack This Shipment, Bug

A mocking and wicked laugh spread Evil Mouth: "Now that we can't contact the leader and the others, aren't we?"

"Perhaps we were released only to be discarded pawns."

"It was used and then thrown away."

Love Resentment touched the iron box. "... The leader wouldn't do that."

In reality, they were unable to contact the leader and others.

"When the leader told us to come out earlier, he said they were going to a newly discovered alternate dimension. He had sent people to scout it out, and the enemies inside were extremely powerful. It would probably take quite a while to conquer it."

Most alternate dimensions block all signals, so unless there is a special method of communication, it is impossible to contact people inside from the outside.

In some alternate dimensions, the flow of time is different from that of the outside world. In some, hundreds of years pass in a few hours outside, while in others, a few days pass in a few months outside.

A bead of sweat trickled down his Evil Mouth: "The leader said that?"

Love Resentment: "Don't you know?"

Evil Mouth, "You didn't tell me!"

Love Resentment showed no remorse whatsoever. "Well, now you know."

Evil Mouth initially wanted to punch the Fang Yi, but considering that a fight would likely result in both sides being seriously injured, he had to suppress his temper.

Evil Mouth scratched his chin. "Since we've gone to another dimension, there's nothing we can do about it. Let's not talk about that. I think I've discovered a branch of the Anomaly Containment Association."

"Branch?"

"That's right, it's probably a newly opened branch, just starting out, and not very large yet."

Evil Mouth sent the branch's information to Love Resentment.

After reviewing the list of "Qing Yuan," Love Resentment, "Easy Track Cleaning Company? That certainly seems like their style. Oh? You also found out they had a batch of goods stored in their warehouse..."

Love Resentment understood his partner's personality very well; almost immediately after seeing the information, he understood Evil Mouth's intentions.

"You want to... intercept this shipment?"

He chuckled Evil Mouth, his eyes gleaming with eager excitement. "I must say, they have so many good things to offer. I heard that only an A-level captain is coming this time. We can't miss such a great opportunity."

Love Resentment thought for a moment about the Anomaly Containment Association's Contract Anomalist, an A-rank, and a captain—there were only a handful of them. "A newly opened branch must have many new members, and there are only a few captains whose personalities are suitable for permanent branch assignments. I guess the one who's coming must be Xie Yu."

Evil Mouth nodded, "I heard he recently took on a new recruit, and he probably came to the branch to give that recruit experience."

After thinking for Love Resentment said, "I've heard that this captain has a gentle and refined personality, with a tolerance as vast as the ocean. Presumably, the strangeness of his contract isn't the kind that's highly aggressive."

That's what they think too, even when they Evil Mouth.

If the contract is highly aggressive and bizarre, it will also affect the Contract Anomalist made the contract with it.

After all, the eerie influence cannot be eliminated; it can only be resisted through willpower. However, human willpower has its limits, while the eerie influence continues at all times.

This influence will only intensify as one's affinity with the eerie increases.

"This is a rare opportunity. So, how about we make a move?"

Love Resentment. "I'll control the situation from the rear and help you hold off the other Contract Anomalist. Can you handle Xie Yu by yourself?"

He grinned Evil Mouth, "A mere A-level."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

I am very confident in this plan.

While the two were engaged in some shady, unspeakable calculations.

Over there, the senior leaders, along with their subordinates, headed to a location where an unusual incident had occurred.

Having finally obtained the key to transcendence from the man in black robes, he was naturally eager to test whether this method was effective.

A group of people arrived at a quiet residential building.

There used to be quite a few people living here, but since the strange incident, everyone who could move away has moved away.

Therefore, the entire residential building was completely dark, and as night fell, it looked incredibly eerie.

The subordinates brought by the senior leaders were somewhat uneasy. Although they had brought their weapons, they were facing a strange situation that could not be dealt with by conventional means.

A group of people were hesitant.

"What are you afraid of? This is the key to the path to transcendence. Don't you want to obtain that extraordinary power that allows you to control everything with a wave of your hand?"

"Boss, are you sure nothing bad will happen?"

"Isn't that monster supposed to be unkillable?"

"Why don't we go back?"

"Who knows if that guy is lying? What if it's fake? We're doomed."

The top management directly used money to bribe them. "When we get back today, I'll give each of you a million-dollar bonus. Don't waste your time here, get to work!"

With the incentive of bonuses, they became much bolder.

A group of people, armed and looking anxious, rushed into the quiet residential building.

More than ten minutes later, they came out of the residential building again. "Boss, there's nothing inside!"

Tom was really lame just now.

"Hahaha, Tom is such a coward, he got scared by a bug."

"Fuck, that bug suddenly crawled onto my face, I was just disgusted."

The senior leaders couldn't believe it. "No? Impossible. I've investigated thoroughly. Several people were brutally murdered in their homes here. There were no signs of anyone else entering the scene, and the wounds didn't look like they were caused by a sharp weapon."

"What else could this be but an anomaly?"

The senior leaders, not believing it, went inside and took a look around.

However, as his subordinates said, there was really nothing unusual inside.

Left with no other option, he muttered a curse under his breath and had to leave with his men.

No one noticed that something seemed to wriggle a few times under Tom's skin.

On the road.

Tom sat in the back seat, wearing headphones, nodding and swaying to the beat of upbeat music.

Hey buddy, you hit me with your hand.

Tom can't hear.

Their companion shrugged and was about to take off his headphones when suddenly, a bump appeared on Tom's face, from which some thick, pale yellow liquid spurted out.

It splashed right onto his companion's hand.

"Oh! Fuck! What is this?"

His companion felt nauseous, quickly withdrew his hand, and frantically found a tissue to wipe it clean.

Tom's swaying gradually stopped.

His eyes were vacant, and the skin on his face twitched intermittently, occasionally bulging out a large lump.

"What's wrong?"

The person in the front seat heard his shout and immediately turned around to see what was happening. They saw that Tom's skin had been torn open by something, and a swarm of disgusting insects were swarming out of his face.

He screamed in terror, "Good heavens! What is that? Bugs! Bugs are coming out of Tom's body!"

"Ah!!!"
