I created the Bureau of Anomaly Control

Hearing this, Mann immediately perked up:

"Of course, you should have finished examining me by now and confirmed that I'm not a problem, right?"

According to the promise at the time, after completing the examination, these Titans should begin accurately investigating how he entered this place and then send him back to the Federation.

Naturally, Mann didn't intend to return just like that, but he didn't immediately plan to do anything either.

Because he felt that he probably wouldn't have to do anything to stay here.

And the truth was indeed as he expected, Zasna nodded slightly:

"That's right, I've already started looking for people to prepare the resources for teleportation, but you might need to wait a little longer. After all, we don't usually teleport creatures from the Federation, and your appearance was very sudden."

"And we also need to figure out where exactly you came from. Can you tell me about that in detail?"

Mann revealed a sincere expression and said:

"Of course, but I'm afraid I can't explain it very clearly. After all, you know how space is. If I could really figure out how I got here, I wouldn't have accidentally entered this place."

"I was just normally traversing through the shadow dimension when the surrounding space went wrong. What happened after that is almost indescribable to me. I felt like the whole world was disrupted, and I was like rolling from the top of a mountain to the bottom, unable to react to the scenery here."

"After arriving here, I stayed hidden in the shadow dimension, constantly searching for other beings I could communicate with, and eventually encountered you."

Zasna nodded, revealing an understanding expression:

"I understand. Later, try to recall where you came from as much as possible. We will send a specialized team to investigate the surrounding spatial situation. However, don't worry if you can't remember. It's not something you can definitely find out just by wanting to. Space is an extremely complex subject."

She didn't press Mann for any further information, as if she didn't really care where Mann came from or was in any hurry to solve this potential problem.

Mann asked with some curiosity:

"So, I have to stay here and wait during this time?"

"Hmm..." Zasna thought for a moment and said, "Let me think. You can stay here and wait until we complete the other preparations, but I know it must be hard to be cooped up all the time."

"But we definitely can't let you come into contact with Titan civilians. Although you've been examined by us, and the collar you're wearing prevents you from harming other Titans, they might harm you."

"You may not understand, but many Titan humans now have a rather resistant attitude, and some extremists even hate humans. If they know of your existence, there's no guarantee what they might do."

"And this is still in the Ninth City—the most human-friendly Titan city in existence."

Mann asked with a puzzled expression:

"The Titans hate us, but why? Do we have some deep-seated hatred between us? According to the books, aren't you creatures with almost the same minds as us? Aren't we the closest different races?"

Zasna said:

"You're right, but you should also know that the Titans and the Gods are enemies, and in the eyes of most Titans, humans are equivalent to the Gods' pawns. Your own will doesn't matter; you are the soil that nourishes them."

"To put it even more bluntly, you can actually be regarded as the same kind of creature as the Gods. You are like the Gods' physical bodies in the real world, and they are the true souls that control these bodies."

Mann frowned:

"I can assure you that humans today do not fear or submit to the Gods. Even if we are the reason for their existence, we can still fight against them. For example, just a few years ago, a human named Shenxiao Walker went to the Southern Federation and directly forced the Gods who wanted to cause trouble back into their gutters."

"And now there are forces among humans, such as the Federation and the Holy Church, that are at odds with the Gods. If they join forces with you, they will definitely not hesitate to kill these southern deities."

"Although these forces are not exactly noble, it would definitely be a good thing for them if the Gods were gone. It's just that solving the Gods was too troublesome and not worth it for them in the past."

"Since the Gods are a common enemy of you and humans, shouldn't cooperating with you to deal with them be the best way to handle things? There's no need for you to regard humans as enemies at all."

Zasna smiled:

"What you say sounds very nice, but the problem is that the Gods still exist."

"We haven't given up hope on you, but look how many thousands of years have passed since then. The Gods are still in your hearts. It's easy to say, but the fact is that you haven't done it."

"The Titans' patience has long been exhausted, and I'm not very convinced by what you said. Even if you now have forces that can deal with the Gods, I still don't think you humans can bring yourselves to do it."

"Because the Gods coexist with you, it's hard for you to cut off your own flesh."

Hearing her evaluation of humans, Mann revealed a somewhat unconvinced expression:

"That's not necessarily true. As far as I know, the Federation actually has a very detailed plan to secretly deal with all humans born in the Southern Federation, which can instantly eliminate all humans needed for the Gods' existence."

"And knowing the Federation, they are not incapable of doing such a thing."

In reality, this plan mainly served as a deterrent. It would be difficult for the Federation to actually implement such a plan. It wasn't that Mann had any expectations of them, but doing so would be too costly for the Federation.

However, Zasna didn't know this, so Mann's words really surprised her.

She revealed a curious expression:

"Your current rulers are so bold?"

Mann said:

"Some time ago, they almost used nuclear bombs to cover one-tenth of their territory in order to deal with the Shenxiao Walker I just mentioned. Believe me, there's nothing they can't do."

After hearing this, Zasna felt secretly pleased with the information she had obtained, but she didn't show it. She was just thinking about learning more about the situation on the ground through Mann.

"Oh?" Zasna asked curiously, "So, the Shenxiao Walker you just mentioned who fought against the Gods has been killed by the Federation? Is she a very powerful ability user?"

Mann also cooperated by deliberately leaking information about the Federation:

"That's right, she is the strongest ability user I've ever seen, so the Federation didn't really kill her. I don't think it's that the Federation couldn't do it, but they were reluctant to do so."

"Their goal in being hostile to her is not to kill her, but to be able to use her power, and now the Federation is trying to re-recruit her. Once they succeed..."

"They will become the strongest organization in the world, and they will definitely be the unquestionable strongest force."

"At that time, even the Gods will no longer be enemies of humans."
