Chapter 0002 I Am Behind You

"Impressive, it can even speak. Can you tell me what this disaster shelter actually is?" Wenwen raised an eyebrow in surprise and asked

... ...

Identifying threats, controlling threats, and containing threats, reducing the occurrence of disasters, imprisoning supernatural entities that pose a danger to the world, and maintaining the balance between worlds are the primary tasks of the Disaster Containment Facility..." the Metal Man said honestly

Viewing this place with the mind is entirely different from being here in person; a solemn, austere, and oppressive atmosphere permeates the entire space

Wenwen waved to the metal man, who then began to wander around the central area. Behind Wenwen, a look of disappointment appeared on the metal man's face.

Hiss... This should be the central hub, but this does not look like the technology of the Federation

This is the graveyard of the disaster containment personnel

After confirming the situation, Wenwen received a briefcase from the metallic man, which contained a badge and a complete set of black trench coats; this was the entire equipment of the disaster containment agent

It is unknown how many years ago this space completely ceased to function, until Wenwen captured a vampire, at which point this space began to operate once more

These flickering shadows seem to narrate touching stories, and the tragic emotions contained within these tales inevitably have an impact on the gentle heart.

... ...

The central hub was blocked by a massive metal door, and when Wenwen wandered here with his consciousness, he had never entered this central hub to take a look.

As for that badge, it is a silver pentagram metal piece the size of a duck egg, adorned with fine silver-white metal chains, which appears to be intended for wearing around the neck

The material of the black trench coat is quite unique, and at least Wenwen has not seen anything like it on the market; it should be able to sell for a considerable amount of money

However, when I was left all alone, I truly felt afraid

Does the environment here have an impact on my state of mind

However, if one truly stands at a funeral, even the most hard-hearted person cannot remain unmoved

As for those matters, Wenwen is actually not very concerned; what he cares more about is what exactly this disaster shelter is and why he has been chosen.

Wenwen found a clean place to sit down and began to inquire about his doubts with the metal man

The voice of the female vampire came from the side. Wenwen turned her head to look and saw that she was locked in a metal cage measuring five meters on each side, with the cage numbered Disaster -0001

I do not want to be the last one ... ... '

After approximately an hour had passed, Wenwen stood up from the ground; he had already understood most of what he needed to know

I can feel the passage of life, and my days are likely numbered. No one can erect a tombstone for me, so I will set one up for myself.

He walked forward step by step, and when he reached the innermost part, he saw a somewhat shabby tombstone. There was no glimmer on the tombstone, and in front of it lay an empty coffin covered in dust

... ...

Whenever attention is focused on a tombstone, some fleeting images of the life of its owner will automatically emerge in the gentle mind.

Danxiazi, captured 27 monsters, confiscated 48 dangerous items, rescued over 100 people

Since that is the case, please tell me in detail what you can share with me. I have inexplicably become a disaster containment officer and I do not understand anything.

Welcome to the Disaster Containment Facility, the 72,580th disaster containment officer, Mr. Wenwen." A small metallic particle transformed into a man resembling one in a suit, bowing to Wenwen.

Each tombstone records the achievements of the caretaker

As of today, I have captured 124 monsters and contained 54 dangerous items

This depends on whether I want to or not

With a gentle sigh, a sense of emotion welled up within my heart

There is no corpse here, because no one has come to collect it

Facing the gentle light is a silver-white sphere, composed of countless small circular metallic particles

This is a place from which you can never escape

As he walked, he stepped out of the confines of the building and beheld a magnificent sight, a vast array of tombstones.

The first floor of this shelter, which is the disaster area, is quite spacious, filled with various types of cells and some equipment he does not recognize

With a gentle smile, he spoke to the female vampire, and then, regardless of her endless curses, he did not linger there but walked towards the interior of the shelter, for he remembered that the voice had instructed him to go to the central area to collect something.

"I ask you, and you just answer?" Wenwen squinted his eyes, thinking that he would have to rely on indirect methods to pry information out of this guy.

However, he still gained some insights, as the metal man stated, this is a place that exists to combat supernatural entities

These tens of thousands of tombstones create a substantial atmosphere of profound tragic solemnity, akin to a superhuman force. Standing among them, one cannot help but be affected, and Wenwen is no exception

This metallic man is not a living organism, but rather the management hub of the shelter, making the dialogue with him more akin to searching for information on a computer

The black windbreaker... this badge... paired with my gloves, it looks quite over-the-top, doesn't it?" Wenwen remarked.

When Wenwen opened his eyes again, he found himself already in the disaster containment facility

William Aaron captured 74 monsters, secured 25 dangerous items, and saved Gray Dust Town from the crisis of destruction

However, it does not matter; this place is worth his feelings of gratitude.

This message is within the authority of the disaster relief personnel," replied the metal man

This is my tombstone

It is written above

Wenwen wishes to know many things, but is unable to do so due to insufficient permissions, such as why he can suddenly contact this space; he is still unclear about it now

The tens of thousands of tombstones standing before him represent the tens of thousands of individuals who sacrificed their lives to save others

A thick layer of dust covers the ground, indicating that no one has been here for a long time

Soon, he arrived at the center of the disaster area and saw the so-called hub of the disaster zone

My name is Jing Du, and I am the last custodian. This year I am seventy-eight years old, and my last old companion passed away seventeen years ago

When Wenwen reached the entrance, the metal door opened automatically. Upon entering, he discovered that it was a vast circular space

Just like facing the sacrifice of a firefighting hero, ordinary people see it in the news; those who are emotional may feel sad for a while and then no longer pay attention, while the indifferent will merely regard it as a piece of news

Even someone as composed and somewhat aloof as Wenwen cannot remain indifferent at this moment

He first bowed to the tombstone, then found a wooden board, placed it beside the tombstone, and wrote his name on it

The words on the tombstone moved Wenwen slightly

At least now, you are not the last one.

Wenwen despises uncontrollable situations and is quite averse to this disaster shelter, but when he saw the words on the tombstone, he truly could not bring himself to feel any hatred.

Seeing those constantly moving metal particles, Wenwen couldn't help but open his mouth in astonishment; he had never encountered such a marvelous thing outside of science fiction films.

Disaster containment personnel are the most basic staff of the containment facility, primarily responsible for capturing and dealing with supernatural entities that wander in the world

You have completed the collection of your items. Please do your best to capture more monsters and restore the glory of the Disaster Containment Facility as soon as possible, the Metal Man said to Wenwen

Without clarifying these matters, he cannot even sleep soundly. The reason he risks such great danger to hunt vampires is that he wants to understand the reasons behind it

After finishing, Wenwen let out a gentle sigh. Since you do not wish to be the last one, I shall help you fulfill this wish, after all, it is but a small effort on my part

Where is this place! Let me out!

It is like a small city here; the rooms must have been inhabited in the past, but now they are merely empty buildings, inexplicably evoking a sense of desolation in Wenwen

If the shelter is still operating normally, then Wenwen is a low-level employee who fights against danger all day long, and now he is the highest-ranking human in the entire shelter

In the face of monsters, in the face of danger, I have never been afraid
