Chapter 046: Six A-level Personnel!

001 - Mimicker.

002 - Deep Diver.

004 - Bee Queen.

009 - Splitter.

These four were successfully contained and brought to the Nine-Tailed Fox headquarters. However, containment of 005, the Wall-Facer, and 003, the Transparent Man, failed.

The failure to contain 003, the Transparent Man, occurred because the team sent to contain him searched for a long time but couldn't locate him.

As for the failure to contain 005, the Wall-Facer, it was simply because the team sent to contain him didn't engage with him.

With these recent failures, the danger level of 005 was elevated by one level.

The Nine-Tailed Fox categorizes the danger level of containment entities into seven levels:

d (no danger)

c (slight danger, but not significant)

b (capable of harming people)

a (capable of killing people)

s (kills as easily as drinking water)

rs (extremely dangerous, capable of matching an entire army)

rt (capable of destroying humanity)

rz (capable of destroying planets)

The highest danger level recorded so far is rt, which is noted in the file of 007, the Siren.

She is the only containment entity with an rt-level rating.

Even the deceased 006, the Weaver, was only rated rs.

The remaining monsters are rated between a and rs.

Apart from monsters, the Nine-Tailed Fox also has its own internal ranking system:

From d to a.

d level personnel have no rights; they are either contaminated individuals, influenced individuals, or death row inmates.

Their status is equivalent to that of lab rats.

c level personnel are ordinary staff with low privileges, unable to access the highest-level secrets, and are responsible for operating facilities and basic tasks.

b level personnel are divided into two types: logistics experiment personnel and field suppression personnel.

Like the mob that swarmed before, all of them were b-level personnel.

a level personnel are somewhat special; they broadly refer to high-level individuals or containment experts who control non-human means.

However, there are currently only six a-level containment experts within the Nine-Tailed Fox.

They are:

Spider: capable of controlling highly sticky and tough spider silk.

Shadow: capable of controlling shadows to attack other people's shadows.

Future Eye: capable of predicting the future and altering the outcome by one second.

Spirit Master: capable of phasing their body to become intangible.

These four are the four a-level personnel who successfully contained 001 Mimicker, 002 Deep Diver, 004 Bee Queen, and 009 Splitter.

The remaining two individuals have rather unique abilities.

One can consume any object into their body and symbiotically coexist with the target, called Glutton.

He was responsible for containing 005, the Wall-Facer, but failed to engage with him.

The other, his ability is to create a snake, and once the snake bites the target, the target loses mobility.

This person is codenamed Cobra and was responsible for containing 003, the Transparent Man, but he couldn't find him despite searching all over Beiling.

In addition to their abilities, these six individuals have all been injected with an enhancement drug.

This enhancement drug is derived from 002 Deep Diver; they extracted cells from fish people and injected them into normal human bodies, making the bodies of normal humans as powerful as fish people.

However, this drug also has a side effect: extreme dehydration.

After injecting the drug, the consumption of body fluids will become extremely rapid.

In combat or exercise, within just a dozen minutes, the injected person will fall into a state of dehydration.

This issue has not yet been resolved.

Elsewhere,

003, Wang Haonan walked in the alley, his skin covered with many burn marks.

Continuous invisibility during the day caused his skin to be extensively burned by ultraviolet rays, causing him excruciating pain.

"Damn it, Lord Aus was really killed by those Nine-Tailed Fox..."

"Except for 005, all the others are missing. They should have been captured by the Nine-Tailed Fox already. Without Lord Aus, it's only a matter of time before they catch me as well."

"At present, only by finding 005 can there be a glimmer of hope."

But to say finding 005, he didn't even know where to start looking.

Wang Haonan leaned against the wall, panting, sweat dripping continuously from his forehead, moisturizing his burnt wounds.

"Phew... Ah, that person should have left. Wait until nightfall, then, then take action..."

Thunk.

Wang Haonan collapsed directly on the ground, consciousness quickly slipping into unconsciousness.

Not long after, a crack suddenly appeared in front of him.

A black-haired man in a suit walked out of the crack, glanced at the fallen Wang Haonan, and then casually took out a bottle of potion from his waist.

"To think it has come to this. Looks like I really underestimated those Nine-Tailed Fox. 001, 002, 004, all captured, huh?"

"Troublesome, but it's okay."

Those few people didn't matter whether they lived or died. Chen Ye no longer needed them.

But 009 Splitter being caught was a different story; that guy was a ticking time bomb.

One day, his arm might fall off and turn directly into the Sword of Slaying God, which those people would pick up and use against Chen Ye. That would be troublesome.

The Sword of Slaying God was a concept envisaged by Chen Ye.

Its function is absolutely lethal, capable of killing immortal units.

Chen Ye had thought about creating this thing before, for which he made the Swordsmith Potion, but it failed.

But now, he had some ideas.

And the reason he wanted to create this thing was not to shoot himself in the foot, but to facilitate the disposal of unnecessary immortal units.

Such as the current 009.

He was too dangerous in the hands of those Nine-Tailed Fox. Chen Ye didn't plan to save him; he planned to kill him.

After all, saving him was not cost-effective; Chen Ye had the raw materials for 009's potion and could completely manufacture new ones.

But not saving him, he was a ticking time bomb.

So sending someone to kill him would be the best option.

Chen Ye looked at the potion in his hand. "Not sure if it will succeed. Let's give it a try."

After tossing the potion on the ground, Chen Ye turned and left.

At night,

Wang Haonan woke up to find a bottle of potion in front of him, with a piece of paper pressed underneath.

He picked up the potion and the paper, and saw two short messages written on it.

"Kill 009."

- Aus·Kait.

Seeing this name, Wang Haonan was stunned for a moment. "Lord Aus?"

"Is Lord Aus not dead?!"

Thinking of this, Wang Haonan quickly looked around, but didn't find anyone's figure.

"I think so too. How could that Lord die so easily? He must have reached a new height."

"If that's the case, then I have nothing to fear."

Wang Haonan thought to himself and drank the potion without any pain or abnormalities, feeling very weak.

This potion is called Mirror Demon.

It doesn't have the ability to be immortal, because Chen Ye already has immortality, so he won't study immortality anymore.

Of

 course, he won't produce undead creatures anymore.

Because if they are caught by those Nine-Tailed Fox like 009, it will be detrimental to Chen Ye, and it will be troublesome to kill them later.
