After waiting for about half an hour, most of the demon hunters who passed the assessment had come out of the building and entered the hall.
Looking through the window, the test building had begun to seal up, indicating the assessment had ended.
Wen Wen briefly counted the number of people in the hall; about twenty-odd had not passed the second assessment.
None of the hunters who came to participate in the assessment were weak, but there were also a few superhumans with severe psychological problems. They were unable to maintain their sanity in extreme situations, thus they were not qualified to become hunters.
The door opened, and Xun Qing flew in at a low altitude, stepping on his purple long sword and standing before everyone.
This time, he had changed to purple long hair and wore a purplish-red robe, making him appear quite flamboyant.
"Why is he stepping on his flying sword even inside the building? And why did he change his appearance in less than a day!" Chu Wei complained. Wen Wen, however, was not in the mood to complain.
Xun Qing, standing on his flying sword in mid-air, pointed his fingers and said, "Let me count. Tsk, there are still over 190 people. Quite a lot passed the first two assessments this year."
Then he landed, glared at everyone, and unleashed a powerful aura that put immense pressure on them. His tone then turned low and stern.
"The third assessment is the last and most dangerous one. This time you will face real danger. The weak may die at any moment. If you are scared, you still have a chance to withdraw."
His words did not frighten the hunters; instead, they ignited their fighting spirit. They all unleashed their auras, and among these diverse auras, the most conspicuous was that of the blonde woman.
Her aura was like a golden long sword, incomparably sharp, and in terms of presence, she was already close to Xun Qing!
Xun Qing dispelled his aura and said with a smile, "Since you are all ready, then let's get on the plane. The venue for the third assessment is not here."
After speaking, he walked away with his hands behind his back, piloting his long sword out of the hall. Several transport helicopters were already parked outside the hall.
Xun Qing's words were not meant to dampen the enthusiasm of the crowd but to incite the fighting spirit of the demon hunters.
After the second assessment, most demon hunters were feeling dejected. Participating in the third assessment with such a half-hearted mindset could truly lead to death!
After flying for about half an hour, the plane landed on a huge platform.
As soon as the cabin door opened, Wen Wen leaped out of the plane and walked to the edge of the platform to look down. He found himself on the rooftop of a massive base.
This giant base was located in an unknown deep mountain. Judging from the faint animal roars, this place should not be frequented by ordinary people.
The plane was fully enclosed, and there was a sensory-blocking coating on the outside, so Wen Wen was unaware of his location.
However, if Wen Wen wanted to find out, he should be able to determine the exact location.
By drawing a circle based on the plane's maximum speed and then cross-referencing it with a map, he could roughly pinpoint the location. It would be even easier to find if the direction of flight had not changed.
However, Wen Wen was not bored enough to be interested in finding his organization's base; he was just thinking about it in his mind.
After all the planes had landed, Xun Qing, stepping on his flying sword, said, "This is one of the Association's large containment bases. Its primary function is to contain and imprison, some rare, dangerous, and research-worthy monsters and containment items. It is also conducting research on superpowered beings."
"Before the assessment begins, I will give you a brief tour."
The group followed Xun Qing, entering the containment base from the rooftop. Along the way, there were many strictly sealed cells, all appearing very complex and fully functional, but they couldn't compare to Wen Wen's own containment facility.
Xun Qing acted like a tour guide, explaining some novel containment items to the crowd. He walked up to a simple cell and pointed inside, saying,
"The codename of this containment item is 'The Transmigrator.' It was captured by the Association three years ago. According to him, he also came from Earth, but his memories contained a different history, a different technological system – a drastically different Earth."
"To date, the Association's scientists have not been able to confirm whether the other Earth he speaks of is real. However, his DNA is indeed slightly different from ours."
"The reason he was captured was that he used another set of knowledge to attempt to overthrow the Earth Federation and establish a new regime..."
Wen Wen leaned closer to the window and looked at the person inside, feeling somewhat speechless.
In the glass wall, a fat man was sitting there, eating potato chips while playing a game, exactly like a typical fat otaku of the Federation.
Xun Qing said with slight embarrassment, "He wasn't originally like this, but after being kept by us for a few years, he became this way."
"We initially wanted to cooperate with him, but he always looked down on us as natives and claimed that fate had been unfair to him, so he had to go against the heavens and overthrow this decadent world... so we had to keep him confined."
Wen Wen sighed. It seemed this so-called transmigrator was a severe case of chuunibyou. If he wasn't a disaster-level powerhouse, where did he get the nerve to fight the world single-handedly?
Perhaps this person had already lost himself when he became a 'transmigrator.'
In this bizarre world, a 'transmigrator' did not seem particularly special.
Following that, Xun Qing led the group to visit several more strange items in sequence.
There was a strange stone statue that, whenever no one was looking at it, even for the blink of an eye, would appear in front of the person and snap their neck.
There was a disgusting deformed creature that continuously emitted incomprehensible gibberish. Ordinary people who heard this gibberish would also turn into twisted monsters.
Besides novelties, Wen Wen also saw many familiar monsters, such as ghosts, carrion demons, vampires, and so on.
He even saw a Hive Mother, bound by layers of shackles, staring menacingly at the demon hunters passing by...
During the tour, Wen Wen felt a surge of temptation. If he could drag all these monsters to his containment facility, wouldn't he become stronger on the spot?
But he quickly suppressed this thought. His strength was insufficient to support such a reckless act, and he had also signed a contract not to harm the Hunter Association at the time.
Unknowingly, the group had arrived on the ground. Xun Qing pointed to an entrance resembling an underground air-raid shelter and said, "This is the location where you will be taking the assessment. It is precisely because of this that this containment base was established here." Sudan Novel Network
Xun Qing paused, then said to everyone, "Beneath this air-raid shelter lies a calamity-level containment item!"
