"Could it be... that this ring allows me to use the abilities of the contained objects?"
Wen Wen was overjoyed. He had obtained several contained objects but had never properly utilized them.
To the extent that when he acquired usable contained objects like the Philosophy Bracelet and the Hundred Flavors Cup, he didn't want to lock them into the containment facility, because once he did, he could no longer use them normally.
But now, the situation might have changed.
Compared to the abilities of monsters, the abilities of contained objects were somewhat incomprehensible. Wen Wen was very curious about how the abilities of contained objects manifested.
To avoid irreversible consequences, Wen Wen first began testing with the only Disaster-class contained object in the containment warehouse, zh-0001 Steel Wings.
After making his selection, Wen Wen snapped his fingers. He felt a heavy sensation on his back, followed by a sudden lightness, as if he weighed nothing.
But Wen Wen knew that something had appeared behind him.
A pair of gleaming wings, each with twenty steel feathers – Steel Wings!
With a thought from Wen Wen, the wings transformed into a long, chained blade, severing a corrupted tree by the roadside.
"So, it's not that I can use the abilities of the contained objects, but rather that I can directly use the contained objects themselves!"
Wen Wen's lips slowly curled upwards. The ability displayed by this second glove was no less significant than the first!
He continued to research the ring's abilities and discovered that the five rings on his left hand, much like those on his right, also had certain limitations.
Although he could easily control these contained objects when using them, there was still a gap between control and free usage.
At the very least, he could not avoid the negative effects of the contained objects; they had only become slightly more convenient to use.
If he were to release the Knee-Crushing Puppet, at most Wen Wen would look down on it, and it wouldn't crush Wen Wen's knees. However, Wen Wen could not control it from crushing other people's knees.
These contained objects did not lose their characteristics just because Wen Wen used them through the containment facility; at most, they were slightly more amiable towards Wen Wen.
Furthermore, unlike his right hand, which could trigger multiple abilities simultaneously, the rings on his left hand could only make one contained object affinity towards Wen Wen. When other contained objects were released, they would be beyond Wen Wen's control.
However, any contained object released through his left hand, no matter how far it ran, would return to the containment facility with a snap of Wen Wen's fingers.
"Hmm... This way, I can put all my other contained objects inside, effectively having a readily accessible contained object warehouse."
"Moreover, even though these contained objects are not fully under my control, they can still be of great use if utilized well."
Wen Wen, with a casual thought, came up with many clever maneuvers. If he were to face a powerful enemy alone, releasing the Knee-Crushing Puppet could cause significant disruption to the opponent.
After examining the rings, Wen Wen turned his attention to his wrist. What abilities could this wristband, identical to the one on his right hand, grant him?
However, after a brief glance, he felt a bit disappointed: "Alas... Isn't this still using the monster's physique? It seems no different from the one on my right hand."
The wristband on his left hand overlapped in function with the one on his right. The right hand had already chosen the vampire physique; what use would choosing another physique on the left hand be?
Yet, he still conducted a perfunctory experiment, lest he miss any significant changes.
Therefore, on his left wristband, he chose the Golden Eagle physique.
After a short period of transformation, Wen Wen's eyes widened, because this time, a pair of Golden Eagle wings appeared behind him!
He had successfully transformed into the Golden Eagle physique!
But the vampire physique had not disappeared!
Now Wen Wen could use both physiques simultaneously, and these two physiques did not interfere with each other!
This was simply incredible!
The superposition of two Disaster-class monster physiques caused Wen Wen's strength to expand once more. Wen Wen even felt that even Yan Biqing back then, if she hadn't entered that super-forgiving state, wouldn't be his match!
"This... is truly a good place!"
For other demon hunters, this corrupted residential area was a dangerous place they wouldn't want to stay in for an extra moment. But for Wen Wen, this was a treasure trove he was reluctant to leave.
After leaving here, Wen Wen didn't know if he would encounter such an opportunity again.
As Wen Wen was savoring his new strength, he suddenly turned his head to look behind him. A bright red light shot straight into the sky – it was the super powerful signal flare issued by the Hunter Association.
Someone had fired a signal flare, indicating that someone had located the source.
Wen Wen's eyes narrowed slightly. After a moment of hesitation, he directly flew towards that direction.
Lin Zhe Yuan had said that they only needed to find the source and then withdraw, leaving the handling to the action team that would soon arrive from the association.
But Wen Wen still needed to confirm if the signal flare had been fired correctly.
Moreover, if possible, Wen Wen did not want to wait for the action team. If the action team arrived late and Bing He and Lin Zhe Yuan couldn't hold on, the ordinary people of Furong River City would suffer.
As a demon hunter, he had to at least try to eliminate the source. Retreating without even attempting was not his style.
It wasn't just Wen Wen; other demon hunters were likely thinking the same.
After flying a short distance, the wings behind Wen Wen automatically retracted. The wings of the Golden Eagle physique were controllable and could be withdrawn into his body at any time.
When Wen Wen arrived, he found that a fierce battle had already begun. Various psionic abilities were flying around, more thrilling than a sci-fi blockbuster.
One side of the battle consisted of Gong Bao Ding, Yan Xiu, and Lin Lu.
The other side was composed of three super-powered individuals with green patterns on their bodies.
Gong Bao Ding might have encountered powerful enemies before. There was a distinct wound on his chest and abdomen, but the formidable physique of a super-powered individual allowed him to maintain his combat effectiveness.
Wen Wen was not surprised that Gong Bao Ding was injured. This corrupted residential area had that fleshball monster, so it was natural for other terrifying monsters to exist.
If Wen Wen had encountered a different monster with equivalent combat power instead of the fleshball monster, he might not have fared as well.
Gong Bao Ding was fighting alone against two super-powered individuals controlled by corruption. One was a super-powered individual wielding a water blade, whose emerald green water flow could extinguish flames.
The other, a female super-powered individual, carried a long spear and constantly changed positions, firing shots at Gong Bao Ding's weak points, forcing him to withdraw and defend with every shot.
The combined efforts of two Disaster-class super-powered individuals were actually on par with Gong Bao Ding!
Even though Gong Bao Ding was injured, he shouldn't have been matched by two Disaster-class super-powered individuals. Therefore, those two super-powered individuals had become even stronger after being controlled by corruption!
On the other side, Lin Lu and Yan Xiu were jointly confronting a muscular bald strongman. Every punch and kick from this strongman caused immense destruction.
The strongman's appearance was distorted by the green patterns, but his identity could still be vaguely discerned.
It was actually You Han!
