There’s an Old Demon In Me

"The bad news is..."

Claire showed a devilish smile.

"Since there is no so-called big power behind you, then you are not qualified to refuse my order!"

"In the future, I will handle you as I want to handle you!"

"Hahahahahahaha, this is the bad news I want to say~"

Looking at the arrogant Claire in front of him, Wu Sin was a little speechless.

"Uh, has anyone said before that your character is very...bad?"

"That's what everyone said!"

After gulping down the coffee from the quilt, Claire said.

"Do you think that after embarking on the path to becoming a god, a normal person loses everything and becomes a pool of black water, can his character remain the same?"

"And, if my mental level was not a little perverted, I would have died in various tasks."

With the calmest words, Claire uttered the cruelest words.

"Well, since you don't want to tell your secret, then I won't force you."

"As before, innocent, you are still a temporary member of our containment department, and you still maintain a close cooperative relationship with us, but this is only on the surface, because you are actually treated the same as other members, and you have the ability to apply for the use of exceptions. Items have the right to assist in combat!"

Hearing Claire's words, Wu Sin asked curiously.

"Salary? Are you going to pay me a salary? How much?"

"And what is the application process for the use of anomalous items?"

Claire narrowed her eyes and said to Wu Sin.

"No, I'm not going to pay you because you're so rich that I even want to send someone to rob you..."

"..."

"As for the application process for the containment... This is not in a hurry. You can go to our basement to learn more about it in the future."

"As long as you meet the requirements and the needs of the mission, then you can apply for some controllable containment items, such as this pocket watch on my chest!"

Claire handed over the pocket watch on her chest and showed it to Wu Sin.

This is a brass pocket watch with a silver casing. On his casing, a whole circle of patterns similar to dragon wings is engraved, and it looks no different from ordinary ornaments.

But after Wu Sin opened it, it turned out to be a small "world" with a three-dimensional mist. In the mist, countless tiny pocket watch parts were constantly being assembled, and after they were assembled, they were separated again, just like an endless cycle. .

What's even more surprising is that in the depths of this three-dimensional fog, it turned out to be a tightly closed eye covered with thick scales!

The appearance of this eye is engraved with black scales, as if it had slept for several epochs...

And the look of these eyes reminded Wu Sin of the legendary dragon!

"It's... amazing!"

Wu Sin, who saw this scene, couldn't help being deeply attracted by what this pocket watch showed.

He never thought that such a peculiar scenery could be hidden in a small pocket watch!

This is no longer a so-called miracle that can be described, it has exceeded the dimension of reality and fantasy...

"Hey-hey!"

Seeing that Wu Sin was a little addicted to this scene, Claire gently closed the pocket watch, and then said to Wu Sin.

"This thing is called a longan pocket watch!"

"You guessed it right, in this pocket watch, what is displayed in front of you is really another time and space, but a corner of this time and space is locked in this pocket watch."

"By the way, don't interfere with the fog in any way, otherwise, you will die ugly, there is a precedent~"

Claire took the pocket watch back and hung it on his chest like a necklace.

"Like Earl Stephen, who you used once before, this item is also one of the abnormal items that the containment department can temporarily use!"

Hearing this, Wu Sin nodded.

"If you don't see something like this with your own eyes, it's really hard to imagine that it actually exists!"

"Yeah, when I first came to the containment department, I was stunned."

"The secrets in this world are not for us mortals to understand!"

It was rare for Claire to show a steady appearance, and it seemed that she also recognized Wu Sin's words very well.

"correct..."

Wu Sin suddenly remembered something and asked Claire.

"Can I ask how the so-called containment department was established?"

"What's the meaning?"

Wu Sin rubbed his temples and said.

"If there is a church with a large number of high-sequence superhumans behind the containment department, I can understand, but according to my observation, the containment department of Evernight City..."

"It seems that there is no participation from the power of the church. It can even be said that you are like a group of rabble gathered together voluntarily, fighting for one goal."

"The most conspicuous feature is that each of you is not in the same sequence..."

"For example, Mark, he is the resuscitator himself, you are the source of the plague, and Daenerys belongs to the warbringer..."

"How did you, no, the founders of the department earlier than you bring together existences of such different sequences?"

Wu Sin raised a question that he had always wanted to ask. Compared with the general explanation given by Mark before, he wanted to hear a clear explanation from the powerful Claire in front of him.

But what he didn't expect was that Claire was stunned for a while after hearing Wu Sin's question.

Then she seemed to fall into deep memories, and she didn't answer Wu Sin's question directly for a long time.

And she seemed to be talking non-stop.

Wu Sin didn't interrupt the other party, after all, it seemed a little rude.

"Ah... I'm sorry, some memories are confusing my mind!"

Claire seemed to have become normal, looked at Wu Sin apologetically, and continued.

"On this subject, I can only tell you..."

"I can't tell."

"I can't tell you the details about the founder of the containment department, the first director of the department, and the establishment of this department."

"What's the meaning?"

Wu Sin was a little puzzled. He didn't expect that this question would trigger such a big reaction from the other party.

"Because this is a seal, each department director, after joining the containment department, will receive the information left by the previous department director through a special abnormal item."

"But at the same time, I also received something similar to a seal. This seal was engraved in my mind, sealing all major secrets!"

"In this way, I can freely explore the secrets in the containment department like a mobile library!"

"But the price paid is that there are many secrets that I can't tell you, and I can't tell you in any way!"

"Like what was the story behind the establishment of this department..."

"For example, who is the first department director, and for example, how many secrets are there in this containment department!"

"Of course, I can assure you that the reason why I can't talk to you is because it is to protect you!"

Hearing this, Wu Sin was a little confused.

Secret? why is that?

Could it be that the things sealed in this containment department are dangerous even if other people know about it?

Or, this so-called containment department...

There is a big problem in itself!

Claire seemed to sense Wu Sin's suspicion, she then smiled at Wu Sin, showing a "harmless to humans and animals" smile, and her face changed quickly.

"But I can tell you the basics, like our department has been around for over 20 years, and I'm the thirteenth generation head of the department, and our motto is..."

"Stop, stop, I've heard your motto many times, the devil is coming... I forgot it later."

"Since you can't tell these secrets, then I'm not going to continue to ask."

"but.."

Wu Sin put down the cup in his hand and asked the other person seriously.

"About the cultists of this monster pathway, what is the containment department going to do?"

Hearing this topic, Claire showed a hint of helplessness.

"Mr. Innocence, I must tell you the truth."

"This time you personally found the monster's lair for us and collected evidence for us! I am very grateful for this."

"However, you must be prepared to accept a result that you will never be satisfied with! That is, we may just use the power of a few nobles to drive away the monster pathway around the king, and then..."

"Continue to support his rule!"

"The king himself will not pay any price!"

"King Sinuo will still sit on the top of the entire Evernight City, and he may even liquidate us in the future!"

"And we, too, must grit our teeth and forcibly hold back the king's anger!"

Hearing this, Wu Sin was simply mad.

"Are you kidding me? Even if he is the king, do you know how many people have died in the whole city of Eternal Night because of his fault?"

"Yeah, many of them are prostitutes, civilians, even poor people!"

Wu Sin patted the table and roared.

"But they're still human! No matter what the nobles think of them, in my case, they... are all flesh and blood people like us!"

"You're not going to liquidate because of politics? That damn... politics!"

When Claire heard Wu Sin's words, she couldn't help but sneer.

"Mr. Wu Sin, I knew you would be anxious, but I must ask you to calm down!"

"I don't know if you've heard another sentence... No matter how bad the order is... it's better than no order at all!"

"Our containment department is essentially responsible for maintaining the stability of Eternal Night City, not a teacher of justice!"

And just when the two were quarreling, Mark finally came back from the sewer.

At the same time, he also brought back a piece of good news!
