After killing the fierce ghost, a series of system prompt sounds flooded in Zhou Yuan’s ears.

Zhou Yuan was not surprised that this mission received an S-grade rating.
With the Control Bureau’s intervention, not only did they save all the victims within the limited time frame, but they also uncovered the fierce ghosts’ experiences before and after death.
Most importantly, the Control Bureau caught the curse item creator, who thought he was well-hidden, within just two hours. They forced him to reveal his absurd motive for the crimes—his favorite furry was exposed for booking a hotel room with her boyfriend forty times within a month, leading him to decide on revenge against society out of heartbreak.
With even the hidden storyline completed, if this doesn’t get an S-grade rating, then there’s something wrong.
Gathering his thoughts, Zhou Yuan turned to the spectators, full of confusion, “Why was this ghost so weak?”
“It wasn’t the ghost that was weak; you’re just too strong,” Chen Guangxi asserted, “I knew the Innate Holy Body Tao Embryo existed. The red-haired freak wasn’t lying.”
“What Innate Holy Body Tao Embryo, my ass,” Jiang Wuming retorted, “Isn’t it just good talent? Do you have to make it sound so impressive?”
“That way, it sounds cooler.”
“So, how strong am I now?” Zhou Yuan asked, clueless.
Chen Guangxi thought for a moment, “That fierce ghost was about mid-tier at stage 1. Being able to kill it instantly, you’re probably at the upper-tier of stage 1.
The strength of dark matter is closely related to spirituality. You’ve only just awakened three days ago and can already materialize dark matter and use it skillfully, which means your talent is pretty good. Train for a few more days, and you might be able to take on stage 2.”
Upper-tier stage 1? Am I really that strong? Zhou Yuan could barely believe it. If he used all his methods, wouldn’t he possibly be able to kill enemies beyond his level?
Not gonna lie, having a cheat really gives you a boost.
With the fierce ghost killed, everyone left the holographic simulation room to get back to their own tasks.
Lin Rumonth and her friends would be sent back to their dormitory by investigators after being brainwashed. When they wake up, they’ll forget all about today’s horror and only remember happily spending a day at the anime convention.
As for Zhou Yuan, he was taken to an office.
“Sign this,” Jiang Wuming handed him a document.
“What’s this?”
“The employment contract,” Jiang Wuming sat down on the office chair, took a sip of piping hot coffee, “Didn’t you want to join the Control Bureau? Sign this contract and you’re officially in.”
“But isn’t there an exam for official posts?” Zhou Yuan was surprised.
“That’s the standard process to filter people out. Given your performance today, we decided to give you a privilege.”
Well, that’s great… Zhou Yuan started to read through the contract.
First, the salary: new extraordinary investigators start as E-class, with a fixed salary of 100,000 per month for doing nothing. For missions, bonuses are given based on the level of abnormal events. Bonuses can also be exchanged for items of corresponding value.
Level 1 abnormal events offer up to 200,000, Level 2 events 500,000 to 1 million, Level 3 events 2 million to 5 million, and Level 4 events 10 million to 50 million. There are no Level 5 or 6 events, which presumably can’t be quantified in monetary terms. Moreover, low-tier extraordinaries getting involved in such high-level anomalies would most likely result in death…
Second, work hours: go on missions when there are missions, do whatever when there aren’t any, potentially having every day as a rest day.
Next, there are employee benefits.
E-class investigators can obtain three abnormal items each month, such as Exorcism Talismans, crucifixes, and consecrated bullets, and suitable resources for cultivation. Martial Artists get Qi and Blood Elixirs, Magicians receive Meditation Potions, and element-based extraordinaries can get elemental stones aligned with their attributes…
Additionally, there’s a Storage Ring and a 5% discount on items bought within the Control Bureau.
“The benefits are really good…” Zhou Yuan couldn’t help but sigh.
“Of course, extraordinaries deserve extraordinary benefits,” Jiang Wuming said matter-of-factly.

Otherwise, why would people risk their lives for you? Faith alone?
Of course, this is a bit absolute. In the Control Bureau, quite a few are driven by faith, all striving to make the world a better place.
But faith can’t feed you. Combined with material conditions, it helps win people over.
Zhou Yuan didn’t hesitate and signed the contract, officially securing his position.
“Remember to go to the logistics department to collect your cultivation resources and newbie gift pack for this month. Also, you don’t know how to meditate yet, right? I’ll send you the ‘Basic Meditation Skill’ document. It includes explanatory videos, so with your talent, you should pick it up quickly.”
“Thank you.”
In fact, Zhou Yuan had already learned meditation from the Mobile Task Force in the Happy Castle. It wasn’t particularly advanced, and they casually taught it to him. However, when he wanted to learn the ‘Feigned Death Qigong Skill,’ they refused, saying it was classified.
Leaving the office, Zhou Yuan headed to the logistics department.
To his surprise, he ran into a familiar face as soon as he stepped out.
Pink-haired hottie Mi Qi.
“Hey, handsome, we meet again,” Mi Qi greeted with a smile, clearly already aware of Zhou Yuan’s situation.
Zhou Yuan briefly thought and, confirming he hadn’t seen Mi Qi lately, pretended to be shocked, “What are you doing here?”
“I’m also an investigator for the Control Bureau. Surprised?”
“What a coincidence,” Zhou Yuan feigned surprise.
