3: Chapter 3: The Power of Gloves 3: Chapter 3: The Power of Gloves After looking at the tombstone, Wen Wen felt sowhat downhearted and did not stay any longer at the Catastrophe Containnt Facility, reappearing in the room where the vampire had been held before.
He glanced at the silver briefcase he was holding and sighed.
“Am I different from ordinary Disaster Containnt Officers because of those gloves?”
Ordinary Disaster Containnt Officers could not freely enter and exit the Catastrophe Containnt Facility; they needed to go through specific rituals or passages, whereas Wen Wen could enter whenever he thought about it.
Wen Wen materialized the gloves and noticed that they too had changed.
On each of the five tal rings and the bracelet, a small screen had appeared, and he could control so things within this screen.
Wen Wen first looked at the bracelet, which had only one option, “Calamity-0001.” Not just the bracelet, but the other parts had only this option as well.
So Wen Wen tapped on the bracelet, as a confirmation, and the mont he did, his body underwent a transformation.
Simultaneously, within the Catastrophe Containnt Facility, the doorplate of the Calamity-0001 cell flashed a golden sheen…
It was a strange experience, a tingling sensation spread from the inside to the outside of his body, and Wen Wen could feel every part of his body undergoing changes.
The change was intense, yet not painful.
Instead, it was comfortable and brought a peculiar euphoria.
When the transformation ceased, Wen Wen felt different.
His vision beca sharper, his body stronger, and he could even hear the sound of his blood flowing!
It was as if…
he had turned into a vampire!
Could it be that by selecting a prison number on the bracelet, one could possess the abilities of the creatures within that number?
This was practically a cheating function!
To confirm the abilities he had acquired, Wen Wen conducted further tests.
Firstly, after selecting a prison on the golden bracelet, he would possess so basic abilities of the creatures in that cell, such as physical strength and healing abilities.
The golden rings on his fingers, however, could select a supernatural ability of the creatures in the cell, like this female vampire who had only one option available—Primary Hypnosis.
Only now did he find out that female vampires had hypnotic abilities.
Thinking about it still scared him; fortunately, he had never given her any chance to resist.
A prison could only be selected by one ring, which ant Wen Wen had only two choices: either possess the basic abilities of this female vampire or have a Primary Hypnosis of unknown effect.
Thus, Wen Wen unhesitatingly chose the female vampire’s basic abilities.
Compared to hypnotic abilities, Wen Wen preferred abilities that made him “non-human.”
By the ti he fully confird the abilities of the gloves, the sun had risen, and the warm sunlight shone through the gaps in the window, making the dust visible.
Seeing this sunlight, Wen Wen instinctively felt a bit of fear.
Now that he supposedly had a vampire’s physique, would he also fear the sunlight like vampires do?
“Might as well try, I hope it won’t hurt too much.”
Wen Wen muttered to himself, cautiously stretching his hand toward the sunlight, then quickly pulling it back.
“Hmm… it seems there’s no problem.”
After multiple confirmations, Wen Wen confird that his body did not fear the sunlight, though he felt slightly uncomfortable under its rays, not knowing whether it was psychological or sothing else.
Moreover, he didn’t have vampire fangs, and clearly, he did not need to sustain himself on blood like the vampires.
He also tested things like Holy Water on himself and in the end, confird that he had none of the weaknesses that vampires have.
But with gains co losses; without those weaknesses, Wen Wen’s basic body abilities were not as powerful as that female vampire’s.
Confirming his condition took him a lot of ti.
Due to professional reasons, he was very cautious in this regard.
“Hehe, now I’m not just an ordinary person anymore…”
Wen Wen’s slender eyes narrowed, his pupils seemingly capable of emitting light, tapping his chin with his fingers as if he was a villain planning an evil sche.
“Having superpowers and not showing off to soone feels like sothing’s missing…
I can’t go to the people I originally knew; I’m not strong enough yet.
I can’t reveal myself now, and where there are monsters, there are people to clean up those monsters.
I definitely don’t want to be cleaned up by them.”
Snap!
Wen Wen clapped his hands—if he couldn’t show off to people, he could go after those monsters!
Although he had no intention of fulfilling his duties as a Disaster Containnt Officer or of taking on any responsibilities, his pair of gloves would need at least six monsters to have their full ability, and currently, he only had one monster!
So, for justice and peace, he had to find other monsters to enhance his abilities.
After making his plan, Wen Wen got slightly excited, rolled up his sleeves, cleaned up all traces he and the female vampire had left in the room last night, and left the place.
On the street, Wen Wen walked with a bounce in his step.
Anyone, no matter how disturbed, would be excited after gaining abilities surpassing those of a normal person.
Returning to a nearby motel, Wen Wen turned on his computer and began searching for information.
He usually stayed in motels because, due to his job, he couldn’t settle down in one place, and besides, he didn’t have a ho…
This ti, a simple introduction to Wen Wen is needed; his first half of life was like that of most ordinary people.
Ordinary schooling, the usual college entrance exam, ordinary university life, nothing out of the ordinary.
But after two years in university, he dropped out due to boredom.
He could clearly see his future life, unchanging, utterly mundane.
So, he decided to get a detective’s license and beca a legal detective.
Yes, a legal detective.
Within the Earth Federation, being a detective had its own Association, and one could beco a detective only after passing specific assessnts.
However, the profession of a detective itself wasn’t highly regarded by many people.
But Wen Wen didn’t care about that.
Becoming a detective, he found the long-lost thrill, the feeling of solving cases and capturing criminals, sothing he couldn’t find in his mundane life.
However, gradually, regular cases also failed to satisfy him.
At this ti, he didn’t go looking for new thrills but felt that he might have a ntal issue and went to a private ntal hospital.
What followed was his inexplicable connection with the Catastrophe Containnt Facility, and his life underwent a huge change.
This supernatural encounter left him in a state of excitent and doubt for a long ti.
To address his doubts, he made a decision that a normal person wouldn’t, to hunt monsters!
And he succeeded!
Now, he was planning to find his second monster.
