400: Chapter 398: Return to Self 400: Chapter 398: Return to Self When Wen Wen returned to the vicinity of the museum once more, it had already been encircled by Supporters handling the aftermath.
The evacuated crowds would likely take a few days before they could return to their hos, after which they would forget the experiences of these past days.
The mission on the Ranger Terminal was also called off, since the incident had concluded, there was no longer any necessity for Rangers to deal with it, and more specialized teams would follow up.
Wen Wen expected to be approached for inquiries about Black Cross, so he needed to prepare his explanations in advance.
After listening briefly to the Demon Hunter discussions nearby, Wen Wen learned they were all talking about the suddenly rampaging artifacts and the new Secret Organization ‘Black Cross’; no one ntioned the mysteriously vanished museum.
Therefore, Wen Wen also pretended to be unaware of the existence of that museum, especially since the Ranger ‘Mystic Detective’ wasn’t even in the city at the ti of the incident.
The atmosphere at the site wasn’t particularly solemn; although the situation was serious and the Demon Hunters were quite worn out, there had been no casualties among the civilians, which was already the best possible outco.
The only one injured was Xiong Ying, who she was most concerned about.
Originally, Wen Wen had planned to send Xiong Ying to the Sanctuary for supervision after resolving this matter, but he never expected him to suffer such injuries due to an incident he triggered.
Fortunately, Xiong Ying hadn’t died; otherwise, Wen Wen’s already poor mood might have worsened.
After casually taking so fruits from the Sanctuary, Wen Wen visited the private clinic to check on Xiong Ying’s condition.
This small clinic seed as though it was going out of business, but it actually served as the dical team’s location for the Qingchuan City Hunters Association, housing so of the top doctors in the entire Qingchuan City.
Moreover, the interior space wasn’t as small as it appeared; the basent space was comparable to a standard small hospital.
Xiong Ying was being treated here and given his peculiar condition, the Association had not inford his family but had sent Supporters to reassure Xiong Ying’s parents.
When Wen Wen entered the ward, he found Zhangsun Jing sitting by Xiong Ying’s bedside, where a nurse was applying dicine and bandaging him; he had seven broken ribs, and his right leg and back had sustained massive lacerations.
Such injuries, which might take a normal person months to recover from, are rely routine for any Demon Hunter; with dications and bandages, recovery would just take a few days.
“How is he doing?” Wen Wen asked Zhangsun Jing.
“Not too good; the doctor said considering his current physical condition, it’s a miracle he’s alive at all.
Whether he can wake up now depends on fate.”
For a superpower user, being alive ant everything could still be discussed, so Zhangsun Jing wasn’t as anxious as before.
Wen Wen placed his hand over Xiong Ying’s chest, sensing the emanations, then his expression showed surprise.
The malice in Xiong Ying’s heart was fading, replaced by a warm aura.
“He seems to be undergoing a transformation.
This so-called ‘Devil’s Heart’ isn’t as simple as Xiong Ying described it…
Maybe Xiong Ying only knew what the heart wanted him to know.”
Zhangsun Jing nodded, then looked intently at Wen Wen and said, “My power is too insufficient, I want to attempt Assimilation.
Do you have any advice?”
“Everyone’s Assimilation is different; what’s useful to may not be useful to you.”
Wen Wen kept a normal expression, but felt sowhat awkward inside.
After all, he wasn’t even a typical superpower user, so how could he guide Zhangsun Jing to advance into the Assimilation Realm?
He could only use the information he had seen after becoming a Ranger to bluff Zhangsun Jing.
Fortunately, at that mont, a tall, attractive woman walked in, alleviating Wen Wen’s awkwardness, and she naturally took a seat next to Zhangsun Jing.
Zhangsun Jing introduced, “This is my girlfriend, Xiao Man, who ca to Qingchuan City with for work.
She is now the firearms instructor for the Qingchuan City Supporter brigade.”
Wen Wen, hearing the na Xiao Man and then looking at her face, felt it looked familiar.
Then, glancing at her legs, he rembered everything.
She was the superpower user in the Corrupted District, the one who wore long skirts but kicked people while wearing safety shorts!
“I can’t believe soone with such bushy brows and big eyes like you has a girlfriend now…” Wen Wen said, looking at Zhangsun Jing’s proud deanor, feeling a bit sour.
Zhangsun Jing also felt sentintal.
Before, there was no chance for him and Xiao Man to co together, but after both lost their abilities, one thing led to another in a series of coincidences, and they ended up together.
Seeing their lovey-dovey appearance, Wen Wen always thought it was after Zhangsun Jing regained his powers that he misused his authority to be with Xiao Man.
So, he decided to find an opportunity to recruit Xiao Man as a Containnt Officer to see if their relationship would change.
After that, Wen Wen didn’t bother watching them showcase their love anymore, and he simply left the place.
…
In the following two days, Wen Wen’s behavior in Qingchuan City beca sowhat bizarre.
Using the Faceless Demon’s ability, he made himself appear like a circus clown.
Then, he started behaving like a true pervert, lurking in places no ordinary person would frequent and doing things no ordinary person would do.
The deeds were peculiar in many ways, but they could be sumd up in two words…
Shaless!
He would incessantly drip shampoo onto people’s heads while they washed their hair, making it impossible for them to rinse out the foam and only allowing them to rage helplessly…
He would also tie a stick to a dog, hanging a piece of at from a string on the front.
The at would float in front of the dog, but no matter how hard the dog ran, it could never reach the at, turning it into an eternal motion dog…
Or he would steal all the clothes off the figurines in so otaku’s collectible cabinet…
Then leave a note stating that the clothes were hidden in various corners of your house.
Or using the TV ghost’s abilities, he would pop out of the screen while soone was watching videos…
As for stealing toilet paper from soone in a restroom, placing frogs in shoes, or applying nthol to sensitive body parts, those were just casual acts.
Anyone Wen Wen targeted could not avoid misfortune, even Zhangsun Jing’s private savings were ‘accidentally’ discovered by Xiao Man while she was cleaning the room, all orchestrated by Wen Wen…
So people were infuriated, others speechless, and still others terrified, but none were injured.
Yet, with the capacity of his Disaster Interdiate Sequence actions, Wen Wen had pranked countless people in Qingchuan City within just two days, quickly spreading the legend of the Terror Clown.
On the morning of the third day, Wen Wen maliciously dripped mustard oil into the milk of twenty Iron-eating Beasts, a smirk on his face.
Now, the rage and frenzy he had accumulated because of Wen Rui had completely dissipated.
Two days of pranks had allowed Wen Wen to rediscover himself, and he certainly wouldn’t lose his self over Wen Rui’s matters!
