"Okay," Dy

Isia glanced at the burger on the table, took a sip of coffee, and asked after a brief thought, "Old sir, do you know about pollution monsters?"

"The Werther I killed last night?"

He Ao asked calmly.

"Well," Isia nodded, "Witt is not actually a pollution monster. He is a human who tried to steal the power of the pollution monster and eventually merged with the pollution monster."

"Is there any difference between the pollution monster you are talking about and the strange beasts in the wilderness?"

He Ao asked thoughtfully.

The strange beasts in the wilderness are also more or less affected by the pollution of the wilderness and can be regarded as a kind of pollution monster. Dysprosium

"In fact, the biggest difference is that the shape of the pollution monster comes from a sudden mutation, rather than showing signs of inheritance like a strange beast,"

Ixia held the coffee and said, "According to the information we have obtained so far, pollution monsters are usually not monsters before they are polluted. Some of them are insects, some are animals, and some... are ordinary humans. Because of For reasons unknown to us, they suddenly mutated into twisted monsters and began to attack humans.

"Strictly speaking, pollution monsters are dead the moment they turn into monsters. They have no reason. What maintains them is only a twisted and crazy soul that desires to kill. They have one thing in common, that is, they will feed on humans.

"Normally, most pollution monsters will hide in some dark corners, attack lone humans, and devour their bodies and souls.

"However, these pollution monsters hiding in corners are usually very weak. Their strength is less than F-level or F-level. When there are more people, a few heavily armed gang members can easily kill them."

"It seems that these pollution monsters are not all weak beings."

He Ao tore open the fried chicken bit by bit and said slowly. Dysprosium

It's not like Werther can be killed by a weak ordinary person.

"Yes,"

Isia nodded,

"The structure of pollution monsters is very special. They will absorb the power of the people they devour. The more people they eat, the stronger the pollution monsters will be.

"Even very weak pollution monsters, after hunting enough prey, they will be promoted to E-level, or even D-level, or C-level terrifying monsters.

"In order to prevent the birth of such terrifying monsters, an organization is needed to continuously clean up those weak pollution monsters, and clean them out while they are still very weak.

"In this way, while protecting ordinary people, it can also prevent these monsters from growing into unmatched terrorist threats." Dysprosium

“Is this what your organization does?”

He Ao put down the intact chicken bones in his hand, picked up the spicy sauce next to him, raised his head and looked at Ixia.

"Yes, the full name of our organization is the Pollution Cleanup Division,"

Speaking of this, she paused, looked at He Ao, and added, "Pollution Cleanup Department of Qijite Group."

He Ao stopped moving and looked at Ixia, "Are you an armed consortium belonging to the Kejit Grain Group?"

"Yes,"

Isiya paused and glanced down at the burger in front of her table. She knew that the person in front of her didn't have much favorable impression of the Kejit Grain Industry Group. Dysprosium

"Although we carry the name of the KJET Group, in fact we are a completely independent organization, but the organization's operating funds come from the consortium alliance headed by the KJT Group.

"In principle, we are not under the control of the KJT Group, nor do we work for the KJT Group, nor do we accept orders from the KJT Group branches in various cities.

"We have our own council responsible for decision-making. Our main task is to remove pollution monsters and deal with incidents related to pollution monsters. We are not responsible for any other business-related matters."

"Will they support you?"

He Ao put the fried chicken pieces in the spicy sauce and smeared them around, "For example, to 'fight' for you some permissions from the city council, city government, and city police department?"

"Will do,"

Ixia looked at He Ao and nodded slightly.

"Kaget now basically controls the city of St. Jon,"

He Aosi thought, "In other words, you are actually equivalent to a 'semi-official' organization in this city?"

He paused and thought for a moment. Just now Isia mentioned ‘KJET Group branches in various cities’, so he continued to ask,

"Besides St. John, are there other cities with pollution monsters?"

"I don't know the situation in other cities. Currently, there are pollution monsters in the 11 cities that have pollution cleanup departments,"

Ixia said, "To be precise, it is precisely because of the pollution monsters that the existence of the Pollution Cleanup Department is valuable."

"These eleven cities are all cities controlled by the Kjet Group? Dysprosium

He Ao regained his composure, put the fried chicken into his mouth, and asked.

"Not really,"

Ixia shook her head, "However, there are branches of the Kejit Group in these cities. The group will organize large local consortiums to 'take shares' in the pollution cleanup department to obtain the support of local officials through these consortiums. These 'shareholders' 'The consortium will also sit on the Board of Directors of the Pollution Cleanup Division."

"QJIT Group is the largest 'shareholder' of your pollution cleanup department?"

He Ao asked in a low voice.

"Yes."

Isia nodded. Dysprosium

In most organizations, the people who give money are often the people with decision-making power.

Therefore, it is not surprising that the Pollution Cleanup Department directly bears the name of QJTE Group.

This is a way for the Kjet Group to declare its ownership.

But it sounds like this pollution cleanup department is a purely 'public welfare' organization with no commercial activities, and a lot of manpower and material resources have been invested in cleaning up pollution monsters.

Will the consortium do business at a loss?

He Ao lowered his head and glanced at the fried chicken on the plate.

Even if the KJIT Consortium is willing to do such a loss-making business, will those consortiums that were attracted by the KJIT Consortium to ‘take shares’ also be willing to do such a deal? Dysprosium

When a consortium makes an investment, the first data it looks at is the return on investment.

The Pollution Cleanup Department is not an organization on the surface, and what they do is not known to the public. If you invest in such an organization, you will not even be able to gain goodwill.

So what do they gain? If the pollution cleanup department itself does not gain benefits, then it must gain benefits elsewhere.

Ixia looked at He Ao's expression. She knew that what she said was a bit unbelievable. In fact, she was just as surprised as He Ao when she first learned that the Pollution Cleanup Department belonged to the consortium's armed forces.

She organized her words and continued,

"Old sir, I also know that this matter is a bit unbelievable, but judging from my experience in joining the Pollution Cleanup Department, there may be some minor problems within the Cleanup Department, but they are really in line with the behavior of the KJET Group. Not quite the same.

"The Cleanup Department has been working conscientiously to complete the task of cleaning up pollution. Since the establishment of the Pollution Cleanup Department, many people have sacrificed their lives in the task of cleaning up pollution monsters." Dysprosium

"Let's continue talking about pollution monsters,"

He Ao temporarily suppressed the doubts in his heart. Things that seem abnormal often have their own unknown inner laws of existence. He looked at Ixia and continued to ask,

"You said before that after I came into contact with the pollution monster, my body has been contaminated with the breath of the pollution monster. Will being contaminated with this kind of breath cause any worse consequences?"

"You will be more vulnerable to attacks from pollution monsters,"

Hearing He Ao's words, Ixia knew that He Ao did not completely believe in the Pollution Cleanup Department. She did not delve deeper into the question just now, but used He Ao's topic to talk about,

"These pollution monsters all have an aura that we can't understand yet. These auras will be contaminated by people who have been in close contact with the pollution monsters, making it easier for other pollution monsters to identify such people.

"Normally, the purer and more powerful a person's soul is, the more aura they are contaminated with, and the higher the 'deliciousness' of these people in the eyes of pollution monsters. Dysprosium

"Pollution monsters are more likely to attack people who have been contaminated by their scent."

"Similar to a 'prey' mark?"

He Ao glanced at Jia Qian beside him and asked, "Is there any way to clear or cover the mark?"

Since the Pollution Cleanup Department has to deal with pollution monsters for a long time, the problem of being flagged cannot be avoided.

If they fail to clear these marks, members may be targeted by monsters and cause unnecessary casualties.

While asking this question, He Ao also briefly activated his super memory.

He did not observe the state of the outside world, but gathered the power of super memory and poured it into his soul.

Usually, things that cannot be traced by common sense are related to the soul.

This 'inward vision' operation caused a brief, swelling pain in his soul, but He Ao's perception was very fast, and in a very short period of time, he scanned the state of his soul.

There was nothing wrong with his soul, nor any changes.

This is consistent with the fact that he did not feel additional pollution and erosion.

He Ao continued to expand the search scope, and soon, he discovered an undetectable small dot with a strange aura in the corner of the outermost surface of the soul.

This small dot is extremely tiny. It adheres to the outermost part of He Ao's soul and does not affect He Ao's state, so He Ao never discovered it before.

Without Ixia’s reminder, this little dot might have remained hidden there. Dysprosium

He Ao mobilized the power of super memory and shattered the small dot.

Then his eyes quickly glanced at Jia Qian's soul.

Soon, he saw similar dots on Jia Qian's soul, but they were much darker and weaker than his.
