Odd Containment Specialist.

Chapter 920 Destroyed Fifty Years Ago

Jiang Wengao scrolled to the bottom of the agreement to see the consequences of violating it, only to find a blurry, completely illegible mess of text, which made him feel uneasy.

The mouse hovered over the "Accept" button for a long time, then the scroll wheel was scrolled up and down many times before finally clicking "Accept".

Start playing!
[You are a Class D administrator in the Control Bureau, responsible for handling contained anomalous entities...]

Is this the demo version?
It seems to be no different from the official version. At least this opening is a common random opening in the official version, starting directly with a Bureau of Control employee.

The downside of this starting point is the lack of special items or ability bonuses, but the advantage is that in the early stages of missions, you have an extra ability to request assistance and support compared to other starting points.

Simply put, although the growth path is not clear, proper operation can allow you to handle abnormal entities at a higher level from the start, greatly accelerating your growth, making it suitable for advanced players.

"Great, saves me the trouble of grinding for a good start," Jiang Wengao muttered to himself.

He planned to start with this profession from the beginning because he wasn't there to play the game, but to gather intelligence.

Compared to other starting scenarios, the Employee starting scenario allows players to immediately access the Bureau's basic files and determine what the Bureau will look like fifty years from now in the beta version.

He kept clicking on the region options, until he reached the archives, selected the timeline, then chose fifty years ago... He scrolled down, looking through the titles...

The first thing he saw was a familiar place with a different title.

The document that was originally supposed to be "The Descent of the Underworld to the Human World" has been replaced with "Initial Control Files of the Underworld (Part 1)"!
Jiang Wengao opened the document and read it quickly. He found that what was written there was basically consistent with their experience in the underworld. However, the King Wushang and the Black Water Floating Boat that appeared in the official version were all gone, and the underworld was no longer connected to the human world!

The plot from fifty years ago... has changed, and it now aligns with the situation he is experiencing.

Jiang Wengao suppressed his excitement, returned to the archive catalog, and quickly searched. He soon found another archive that had not been there before: "2024: The Descent of Divine Law".

"hiss--"

Jiang Wengao gasped, confirming his suspicions.

When he opened the file about the descent of divine law, after glancing at it a few times, he was 100% certain about the situation of this test version.

This beta version is based on real events he has experienced. Everything he experienced in reality has become history in the beta version!
Damn, this is getting exciting. So, I'm in too? What nickname will I get?

Jiang Wengao excitedly typed his name into the search box, but the result was "No related content found".

"I almost forgot, my initial position was too low, so I didn't have permission to access the files of senior personnel. I had to improve my performance a bit."

Although he couldn't access the information of the three predecessors, he still checked the current state of Earth and obtained some terrible intelligence.

The Earth has flattened.

In other words, the Bureau of Control did not succeed in preventing the catastrophe from happening back then.

He clicked into a document titled "The Möbius Solution" and read through the entire story.

In the game, the Control Bureau had no effective means to stop the Heart of the Rift from splitting the Flesh Bridge. After Aunt Su carried out a secret plan, the apocalypse was delayed for a period of time. The Control Bureau took this opportunity to launch Project Fire, sending as many humans as possible to various historical cycles. Then, 99% of humanity died in that catastrophe.

Of course, many powerful superhumans survived the Earth's transformation even without going into the time loop. The article also mentions that Sprite successfully ascended, and that besides Sprite, another person from the same era was promoted to Agent, but the Agent's name and origin are not mentioned in the document.

In the past, Jiang Wengao might have just glanced over this content, since it was just a piece of text that added to the richness of the world view and had no connection to the main plot, so there was nothing worth reading in detail.

But now, Jiang Wengao is carefully studying each word, his emotions rising and falling with each paragraph.

When he read that Su Yue ultimately lost control of her reason during this incident, his heart sank to the bottom.

...The plot of this beta version is so different from the official version! Blood Maria, the pillar of humanity, has actually lost her mind in the beta version?!

Jiang Wengao sat at his computer desk, his hands and feet cold, feeling frustrated.

He entered the names of other seniors one after another, but could not find any information about any of them. The only one with information, Su Yue, was actually classified in the control list, with one of the tags being "abnormal entity"!
"Aunt Su, has she become an anomaly?"

Damn... Is it really that bad?

No, this can't be described as just bad; it's downright despairing. That year, Sprite ascended to heaven, and an unknown person was directly promoted to acting. The Earth fractured and became flat, and humanity was almost wiped out. Each and every one of these events was the worst possible outcome.

What exactly happened back then? How did things end up like this?

Jiang Wengao anxiously browsed through any information he could find, most of which was of no use at the moment. What he cared about most was the events of this year, the year they were currently experiencing.

But in that year, apart from the Earth being cut into a long strip, other information was extremely scarce. The reason given in the archives was: "Human civilization regressed significantly. Apart from the normal technology tree being completely preserved, most of the extraordinary information and mysterious documents were lost or destroyed in the disaster."

Those who sought refuge in the past could not know what happened during that time, while those who remained in the present, surviving the disaster, were too few in number to piece together a complete history from individual perspectives; personal testimonies could not corroborate each other, and there was almost no information that could be called historical material.

Therefore, this period of history is almost entirely blank.

Jiang Wengao frowned, but did not give up immediately. His gaming mindset was at work, and he had already come up with a strategy to obtain information.

The file shows that after Su Yue's mutation, she was eventually contained by the Control Bureau and is still there. She is a friendly anomaly who can communicate normally with humans.

In that case, as long as we go to her, we should be able to get firsthand information from back then!
He spent three hours leveling up enough to reach the required level for prison visits, and finally met Su Yue fifty years later.

Before the visit, he received a document from the guard and then put on an air-circulating device.

According to the information, Su Yue, who has transformed into an anomaly, emits an odorless and unobservable substance that can infect humans, causing them to have a strong desire to mate. Therefore, it is necessary to wear appropriate equipment to see her.

[Administrator A5002: Are you ready? If you are, please go in yourself.]

The NPC in the game asked.

Option 1: I'm ready.

Option 2: I'm not ready.

Option 3: I'm ready (bring in the items you've prepared). (This option is not activated)
