Chapter 1, The Man Who Captured the Vampire. The protagonist Wen Wen, when he was being treated in a mental hospital, accidentally obtained the mysterious space "Calamity Shelter", and could only absorb demons and monsters. So, he squatted for a few days, and finally caught a low-level vampire and successfully contained it.
Chapter 2, I'm Behind You. The protagonist enters the shelter, finds the center, and gets little information from the metal man derived from the other party. In the group of tombstones in the shelter, the protagonist is strongly shocked in his heart, inherits the will of the shelterer, and inserts his own tombstone.
Chapter 3, The Power of the Glove. The protagonist's gloves allow him to travel freely between reality and the containment chamber, as well as gain the abilities of the captured containment, including basic abilities and special skills. He wittily chose the basic stat bonus that vampires bring instead of primary hypnosis. With the ability, he wanted to scream, and he was going to find other containment objects to show off.
Chapter 4, New Goals. The protagonist has the identity of a legal detective, and in order to find supernatural events, he begins to focus on investigating cases related to the world of China, and finally finds clues in another city, and pretends to be an insurance agent to visit him.

The protagonist decides to investigate the school himself, and he is free to switch between attributes and skills, first jumping into the school and hypnotizing the security guards.
Chapter 6, Ghost Hunting. The protagonist is very well prepared, and when he smears the tears of the cow, he sees the ghost, and on the pretext of talking, he directly slashes at the ghost with a knife, and splashes the boy's urine. One operation is as fierce as a tiger!
Chapter 7, Capturing Success. The above moves were used up, but it didn't work, and in the end, it was the power of the glove that succeeded in capturing it, and the protagonist beat it fatly. In the shelter, the female vampire coldly mocks the protagonist for wanting to be a hunter, I'm afraid it's looking for death.
Chapter 8, Ghost Abilities and Mutations. The protagonist tries his hand at the ghost's ability to operate and discovers that he has become a transparent person, the kind without clothes. Combat effectiveness is not there. When he starts to wander, he attracts the attention and stalk of other ghosts.
Chapter 9, the first actual battle. The protagonist encounters the monster attack of the inner world for the first time, and when he confronts him head-on, he miscalculates and is pressed and beaten by the monster. Someone from the mysterious organization appears and begins to wrap up. The Chunli-like girl was extremely violent.
Chapter X, Hunters' Guild. The two are members of the local Hunters' Guild and track down the protagonist, find the monsters of the inner world and kill them. They take the protagonist to the Guild headquarters, which is also a psychiatric hospital. Surprisingly similar. And the protagonist's inspiration is beyond imagination, and he is able to connect with the monsters of the inner world through the gray fog world.
[Brief comment]
Story features:
This book is quite interesting.
It tells the story of the Earth Federation, the protagonist Wen Wen is a legitimate detective, ordinary cases can no longer bring up his interests, he enters a mental hospital to treat mental illness, accidentally gains magical abilities.
In the "Calamity Asylum", he inherited the will of his previous incarbe, and in order to satisfy his curiosity, he began to take the initiative to capture all kinds of supernatural objects, led to the Hunters Association, successfully integrated into the new circle, and began his extraordinary life.
Character characteristics
The protagonist is gentle and cold, and unscrupulous.
With no worries, he pursued a career as a detective, exploring various thrills, catching vampires, catching ordinary ghosts, and fighting monsters in the inner world. For better or for worse, catch it!
He gains new abilities, but he is also able to maintain a shred of sanity and refrain from doing things that violate morality and the law.
The protagonist also has a hint of playfulness, which is reflected in the various seemingly effective means of capture, as well as various magical reversals.
In fact, what he should rely on most is gloves, "empty gloves white wolf", which has evolved into "set everything", which is actually quite good.
Stylistic features
Many people say that this book is biased towards dark texts.
After all, it is a parallel world, and the various settings are also a combination of Chinese and Western, without naming and not concrete, and there is no need to consider the specific location.
Even the moral standards and legal boundaries are very different from reality.
Therefore, every time the protagonist acts, he does not play cards according to the convention; Fight monsters, and there are no routines; If you are caught, you can also brazenly talk nonsense.
It is this kind of unorthodox style that makes it easy to read without much depression and pressure.
Although many places borrow from the Cthulhu Mythos and the SCP Foundation, they still have their own originals and write their own characteristics.
And the author's attitude of working hard to write is at least worth learning from.
【Summary】
Writing is not easy, but do it and cherish it!
I'm Cang Yiwei, and I bring salt to "Cang's Whispering"!
Welcome to Book Review Paradise.
【Cang's Whispering】
Yes, I admire this author.
His last book was also classified as fantasy, and his grades were very average.
But he did not get discouraged and gave up, and still persevered to 1.5 million words.
This book has written a lot of achievements, and the interest has been enhanced a lot, and it is very comfortable to read.
His progress has been remarkable.
In contrast, I have always come up with stories that I am satisfied with and that more people will enjoy.
Although the results of this short story are getting better and better, it is not a complete story after all, and I always feel that I can't fully ignite my creation.
Alas, this damn little tsundere!
For the sake of money, isn't it fragrant?
Self-media, isn't it fragrant?
There are thousands of ways to make money, so why not just write this?
It's not because of love, it's love.
When this short story is almost written, it is the right way to return to the real world.
I didn't expect that today's trial reading of "Disaster Shelter" would shake my heart.
The Dao heart is unstable!
Maybe it has something to do with the fact that today is Friday, and it's May Day again.
Referral bits, monthly passes, referral tickets, subscriptions, free reading, so-called tweets of writers' assistants, changing faces without changing ideas, and so on.
The information age is always full of useful and useless information, which makes people dizzy and ideas constantly breed.
Hold down, the Dao heart must be stable!
To do things, you still have to do it one by one.
Finally, I wish you all a happy May Day!
