Feng Ruixing chuckled subserviently, but inwardly, he scoffed.
“Talking so much, aren’t you just trying to intimidate me into joining? You were so terrifying in the car; I don’t believe for a second you’re a benevolent person.”
Of course, he wouldn't dare say that aloud.
Wen Wen first drew a dagger and handed it to Feng Ruixing.
“From now on, the facility will have many areas needing your attention. This dagger can harm supernatural beings, consider it my welcoming gift.”
Feng Ruixing took the rune dagger. The moment he gripped it, he felt the difference. This dagger was certainly no ordinary weapon.
Its surface was covered with patterns resembling countless stars. He had never seen such strange markings on metal before.
Without a doubt, this dagger was extremely valuable!
Hm…
Although the dagger’s surface was made of scrap metal, it was indeed a good item.
At the very least, this dagger had been tempered by Calamity-grade power…
Wen Wen leaned back and said, “Typically, the main task of a Containment Officer is to contain as many threatening supernatural entities as possible. Can you do that?”
Feng Ruixing managed a wry smile. He couldn’t even defeat a single vampire, so what could he possibly contain?
“If I don’t want to fight, what other work can I do?”
Wen Wen’s lips curved slightly. This was exactly what he was waiting for. “Then you’ll have to compensate in other areas. I need you to manage the association’s normal expenses.”
“Finally,” Feng Ruixing’s eyebrows shot up. He knew the reason this person had resorted to near-intimidation to get him to join the facility was simply because he had money.
“Don’t worry, I won’t take advantage of you. All I need you to do is a job.”
Wen Wen snapped his fingers, and a pile of things instantly appeared behind him.
It was a stack of cash, along with various antiques.
He gestured to Feng Ruixing, saying, “You can take all of these. I want you to use this money to manage an enterprise. You will have complete control over it, and you’ll receive a thirty percent share. However, the remaining profits from this enterprise must all go to the facility.”
Feng Ruixing nodded, accepting the offer. After all, the terms Wen Wen was presenting far exceeded his expectations.
At the very least, this wasn't a one-sided exploitation, which made Feng Ruixing feel a little better about the facility.
“Manage this enterprise well. You will be rewarded accordingly, and in the end, you’ll find that you gain far more than you give.”
After they had discussed the specific execution plan, Feng Ruixing asked Wen Wen, “What name do you want for this enterprise?”
Wen Wen tilted his head back, pondered for a moment, and replied, “Let’s call it – the SRS Foundation.”
Feng Ruixing noted down all of Wen Wen’s requirements and prepared to leave. As he reached the doorway, he turned back and asked,
“I will fulfill your requirements, but I’d like to ask in advance, if I encounter trouble, can the facility provide me with shelter?”
“Of course.”
Wen Wen smiled faintly, and then his aura suddenly erupted.
Feng Ruixing’s hair stood on end. He could feel that the person sitting there was not human, but a dark god-demon!
Reining in his aura, Wen Wen spoke slowly, “Clear your mind. I, or rather, the facility, am far more powerful than you can see.”
Feng Ruixing respectfully withdrew, his back drenched in cold sweat.
He understood that the sudden burst of power was not only meant to reassure him but also served as a warning.
However, despite trembling from the power, he felt much more at ease.
“At least I have backing now.”
Subsequently, Feng Ruixing shuttled back and forth to the facility, transporting the cash and antiques to the outside world.
Unlike Zhao Jinwu, Feng Ruixing had the capability to sell these antiques at their market value. He would even use his own money to collect a couple of items he fancied. Su Dan Fiction Network.
He had no intention of skimming off the facility’s money. Firstly, the current scale of the ‘SRS Foundation’ wasn't enough to tempt him.
Secondly, he had a good impression of the facility, so he intended to manage this enterprise diligently.
Feng Ruixing possessed the ability ‘Flowing Wealth,’ which meant he would never lack money. Therefore, what he needed wasn’t money but a sense of security as a super-powered individual.
The power Wen Wen had displayed earlier could provide him with the security he desired.
…
“Having Feng Ruixing manage the facility’s coffers was a stroke of genius.”
As a big boss without henchmen, Wen Wen could only entertain himself by praising himself.
“In many novels, as soon as the protagonist has money, they entrust it to their brothers to manage. Isn’t that absurd? Are their brothers all financial geniuses?”
There are specialized fields. Letting amateurs manage such vast sums of money would be lucky if they didn’t lose everything down to their underwear.
After a period of self-praise, Wen Wen suddenly remembered the bronze mirror in Feng Ruixing’s room earlier.
“That thing seemed to have great potential as a henchman. I should go and train it.”
In Storage Room Number Three of the pitch-black Disaster Zone Containment Facility, a bronze mirror stood alone.
When Wen Wen appeared outside the storage room, a clear human face emerged on the mirror. Unlike the condescending expression it had displayed the first time, it now wore a completely subservient look.
“Great existence that wields calamities, your humble servant, the magic mirror Gidro, offers its loyalty.”
Wen Wen sighed, saying, “Alas, I still can’t understand what this thing is saying.”
So, he tossed a Federal Common Language dictionary into the cell.
“See if you can self-teach yourself Common Language. If you learn it, you might actually be of some use.”
As the dictionary entered, an invisible force began to manipulate it, its pages flipping continuously.
“Tsk, this thing is actually learning Common Language. Once it learns, I’ll have a perfect henchman by my side, heh heh heh.”
Then, Wen Wen quietly vanished from outside the door.
In the following days, Wen Wen only undertook one mission for the Hunter Association, capturing a runaway ordinary person affected by supernatural powers. Other than that, he stayed at home.
The series of major events and the consecutive outbreaks of Calamity-grade powers had silenced all supernatural beings in the city, bringing an unusual period of calm.
But this wasn’t the kind of peace Wen Wen preferred, so he planned to apply for the Ranger assessment as soon as the disaster zone opened.
During this long waiting period, Wen Wen began experimenting with creating super-powered weapons.
He now had several pieces of super-powered weapon materials that had lost their spirituality.
He intended to try using Calamity-grade power to reawaken the spirituality of these materials, or to imbue them with new spirituality.
As Wen Wen’s authority within the facility gradually increased, he gained access to more knowledge.
Although he couldn’t create super-powered weapons out of thin air, with his Calamity-grade power, he could still achieve certain things.
With the facility’s continued growth and expansion, Wen Wen needed valuable items to reward his subordinates.
If he had nothing to give when the time came for rewards, his status as a boss would be jeopardized.
“Sigh… When will I be able to capture a craftsman monster? Then I wouldn’t have to do it myself.”
