Monsters, theM, used to be called by various names, specifically from other worlds, parallel planes, hyperspace, or the reincarnation of the three realms of heaven and hell, the kind of 'existence' that cannot be analyzed, restored, and reproduced with existing technology, and because it cannot be understood, it has had various names since ancient times.

At present, the company believes that when these 'beings', for unknown reasons and unknown purposes, come to Earth. Due to the limitations of some unknown laws on the earth's own plane, there are no conditions to support the complete advent of these 'beings', so the vast majority of 'existences' can only retain their partial core rules and come in the form of some kind of man-made thing with similar rules on the earth.

A silhouette from an otherworldly 'being' that is inverted on this earth.

That's the monster.

Yes, projection, like the shadow of the same person, there are big and small, long and short, and the same monster has different manifestations on different earths.

Some monsters have great energy, some monsters are not a threat at all, some monsters can communicate between the present world and the other world, and some monsters can even exist in their own right, threatening to destroy the world even if they are left alone.

It cannot be classified, it cannot be distinguished, after all, once it is analyzed, reproduced, and classified by human technology, it itself loses its management significance as an 'unknown weirdness', and it cannot be called a 'monster'.

But obviously, if it's just worthless garbage, without the slightest management risk, it also has no value for containment control.

Therefore, most of the existing login monsters are due to their own strange rules and mechanisms, which contain too large radiation energy that cannot be transformed into radiation.

If left unchecked, it can cause permanent and irreparable damage to the natural environment and ecosystem. Worse still, it causes turmoil in the structure of civilization.

Therefore, for a long time, there have been various secret associations and organizations in human civilization, which are hidden in the shadow of civilization for various purposes, and are responsible for the collection and management of monsters.

TheM Company。

Monster Company is one of them, the establishment of the company can be traced back to the end of the 21st century, is the first company with monsters as its main business project......

"Wait, wait, the end of the twenty-first century? Isn't that all...... What happened in the 0 era of Earth? ”

Yes, long before the first stargate, the first system, the first super brain prototype chip was made, long before the singularity of the big explosion of technology, in the first and final only world of Zhigao Earth 0.

The chairman of the company, the first general manager, came into contact with monsters due to family tradition, so with the help of cutting-edge technology at the time, he gave full play to his genius economic acumen, and founded a business group with monster collection, research, storage, production and rental services as its main business, and continues to this day.

TheM Company, Member of the Earth 0 Safety Committee, Heavens and Worlds Monster Company, Multiverse Parallel Earth, Designated Monster Dealer.

Li Pan looked at this 'retro' office, so this place is probably really the so-called, 'the starting point of everything'.

But even things of the nature of 'monsters' can be monopolized in sales, and these companies are too outrageous......

There is an internal explanation of the landline, as well as the company tradition of paper-based office, although the office area is as messy as the battlefield at this time, Li Pan can still dig out a large pile of documents from the scattered tables and cabinets, there are files, reports, memos, instruction manuals, various supplementary instructions for product catalogs, drink coffee and study it carefully, and can roughly have a basic understanding of the monster company.

Humans are arrogant, humans are cowardly, humans are horrible.

For those who don't understand it, it's called a monster.,If you can't fully understand or control it.,Will subconsciously try to destroy it.。

But just because you can't understand it now doesn't mean you can't understand it in the future.

For example, ancient humans even feared fire and worshipped the sun, but now they are not proficient in fusion, making Dyson spheres at will, and dominating the infinite universe galaxy.

In the same way, the ancient humans who used to be 0 on the earth used to fight, keep, and analyze these monsters as gods, holy relics, and magical treasures.

Even if these monsters are really some otherworldly gods or something, with the outbreak of technology and the development of the times, the mystery of the monsters has been quickly revealed, and their status has plummeted, so that the things that were previously offered in the temple have even deleted the affixes such as 'some kind of higher than humans', and now they are completely reduced to commodities that can be freely traded on the shelves.

yes, what about having the power to destroy humanity? In the past few years, which big company has not hidden two destroyer-class antimatter bombs in its warehouse, what is the big deal to destroy all mankind, who to look down on.

Of course, on the other hand, as human scientific research progresses more and more, and the pace of exploration goes deeper and deeper into the heavens of the universe, human beings will naturally come into contact with more and more monsters that cannot be understood and controlled. It's impossible to wipe them out indiscriminately, or to expect them all to hide, and someone is responsible for managing and dealing with the consequences.

And it doesn't matter if it's weird or not, even if you don't know what a monster is, you'll be able to figure it out one day in the future, and things are scarce, so you can speculate and invest now.

In a mature market system, as long as there are buyers, anything can be valued and traded.

To put it bluntly, TheM Monsters Inc. is an exchange specializing in the buying and selling of monsters, and they buy monsters from the Science Ethics Committee, the Heavens, and the Scavengers, whose technology cannot be analyzed.

Then, based on his extensive experience in the field, he analyzed, contained, valued, and then quoted and sold the monster to the tech labs of those giant companies for more in-depth research. This is the main source of revenue for Monster Inc.

In these years, the poor people's little money is really not enough to stuff their teeth, and only by making money from the company can they have a head.

And the monster is indeed a huge market with unlimited potential, after all, at the level of the Super Heavens Company, the struggle at the level of the safety committee, even the meaning of money is not much, in the final analysis, it is the competition of science and technology, who can be one step ahead, who can control the overall situation, this is the iron law of human development so far.

And the most powerful and advanced technology is naturally the research on edge technology in a field like monsters, which has not been known to people so far.

Of course, when it comes to the purchase and sale of monsters and companies, it must be the board of directors at the level of Earth 0 Corporation, and a subsidiary like Earth 0791 is, to put it bluntly, a regional warehousing and logistics center under Monster Company.

And the task of the general manager of the subsidiary is naturally to recover and keep the monsters on the 0791 plane of the earth, and complete the monster transactions between the head office and other chaebols. Of course, in view of the rarity, high value, and high risk of monsters, it is a typical three-year non-opening, and three-year opening, so the daily work is mainly in the library inspection......

Li Pan, "Damn, I've been riding a horse for a long time, and I'm still a warehouse watcher!" ”

After hanging up the phone, Li Pan stood up, only to notice that the cheap formal clothes and plaid shirts he rented were torn, and although his body was restored by the filing cabinet, these clothes were not demobilized......

Li Pan thought about it for a while, and picked up the ashes in the formal clothes that the coffee monster was wearing just now.

How to say it, it's a very strange material, soft and tough, as if touching human skin, but now it's cold and cold, it's a bit strange to say this, but for some reason, Li Pan feels that this formal suit is 'dead', and it will be torn apart with a little force, and naturally there is no bulletproof special effect.

So Li Pan picked up the phone and dialed 0791001.

"What is this? Also monsters? ”

He heard his own echo on the other end of the phone.

"Formal Wear/Guardians,

Identifiable, controllable

The group's internal purchase products, monster sub-projects.

The Suit/Guardian may be a projection of the cubs of an otherworldly creature on Earth.

Formal wear/guardians can live in symbiosis with employees and resist damage, but formal wear/guardians can also hurt and die.

If an employee doesn't respect their formal attire/guardian, the formal attire/guardian will also get angry and run away.

If the employee treats their suit/guardian well, the suit/guardian will fight with you to the end.

The company only reimburses regular employees for the first set of formal wear/guardians.

Although I am still in my internship period, I can also enjoy this benefit as an agency manager. ”

"Oh, you can be reimbursed, then give Lao Tzu a set."

Li Pan put the dead formal suit on his body, it was a little big, so he could barely make do with it.

"The general manager can check the formal wear customization in the phone book, and send a fax to customize the formal wear/guardian.

However, equipping a Suit/Guardian requires the Suit/Guardian Trial and the consumption of a Silver Key. ”

Li Pan narrowed his eyes, "You wait first, what's the use of this silver key?" ”

"The key can open the door."

“…… Nonsense, be specific. ”

So the phone was accented,

"A 'key' can open a 'door' and open it by definition. The properties of monsters cannot be explained scientifically, as long as they follow the rules.

I can use a key to open any entrance, or I can use a key to open any seal, or I can open the warehouse directly and borrow the monsters from the company's library.

I'm the general manager, and I have the authority to borrow the company's inventory for monster containment missions, but given that I only have one key in my hand right now, maybe I should be cautious and take a look at the inventory to make a decision. ”

Monster key, so mysterious......

Li Pan took out the key again and looked at it,

From the phone, it sounds like this thing can only be used once, and it could be an internal reward or currency or something like that.

But yes, he doesn't know when this formal suit will be delivered, and what trials will be made, he is not sure, but there must be inventory in the company's warehouse, and the general manager can borrow it...... Wait a minute! Which warehouse? The one targeted by the Vortex Gang?

"I suddenly realized that there might be a safety hazard in warehouse No. 7, and in view of the unexplained attack, which led to the deletion of all the company's former employees, perhaps I should conduct an on-site inspection, investigate the cause of the previous attack on the company, and report it to the head office."

Li Pan also reacted, the people of the monster company died so cleanly, there must be forces targeting them. Of course, the mastermind behind the scenes is definitely not the Vortex Gang, that kind of little deflated three is at most stepping on the thunder to explore the way, since the monster company is a member of the security committee, then it is not good that his opponent will be the Night Clan, a super plane company of the level of Gao Tianyuan.

And now, whether he wants it or not, he has already boarded the thief ship and saved the file. If you want to delete it sooner or later, you have to take action even if it is for self-preservation.

Li Pan immediately ran back and forth on the phone while asking, looking for the inventory list of the No. 7 warehouse in the surrounding filing cabinet database.

Before he joined the company, he went around the No. 7 warehouse under the leadership of Big Bear, and knew that the scale of the warehouse was quite large, with a total of six floors of constant temperature warehouses above ground and underground, sealed containers, internal lines disconnected, safety command cards are required for entry and exit, and there are automatic defense guns outside the yard, intelligent identification of mines, and retired armed robots.

Although there is no full-time private security at the level of CSI, because of the extra money for the NCPA branch in the block, the cameras near the warehouse street have been connected to the police station monitoring subnet, and there are car crews patrolling in the morning and evening, and the police force will be dispatched once the police are called three minutes later.

To his surprise, according to the company's list, there was only one monster in the company's inventory, and the rest were empty boxes for the tax office to inspect the.

"In order to avoid running out of control, all monsters must be contained separately in a specific environment. I should check the status of the warehouse immediately. ”

"What the hell is the bad luck in Warehouse Seven, and you want me to go there myself? And what's going on with your computers? Can't drive one? ”

Li Pan was also speechless, this unfortunate company deleted all the employee files at once, and the task report was naturally gone. And in the piles of internal affairs archives, the monster-related information has been erased by small black bars, and people are dazzled to see it.

Damn, it's cyberpunk era, and there are only fax machines, shredders, landlines and coffee machines in the company that can be used.

"The company server has been taken down urgently and is unavailable until the system resets. After a company facility is destroyed, it is possible to call a cleaner/time reset after hours to restart. You can get back to normal when you go to work tomorrow.

Please note that the cleaners are only available in the Blue and Yellow Zones. ”

Li Pan was stunned, "Blue Zone? Yellow Zone? ”

"The blue zone is safe and free of monsters. The yellow zone is controllable, and the monsters have been contained. The red zone is dangerous, and the monster is at risk of getting out of control or has gotten out of control. ”

“…… Hey," Li Pan suddenly thought of something, and narrowed his eyes, "That fucking mood deviation value identification, it shouldn't be your whole thing, right?" ”

As a result, the echo on the phone replied,

"I don't know."

Li Pan was speechless, "You don't know? Aren't you the company's exclusive system intelligent assistance, don't you know? ”

Phone

"I'm an office landline/psychic echo that is also referred to at some point as 'soul communication', 'subliminal conversation', 'mind whispering', 'psychic medium'.

When I call an employee's internal line, I can answer instead of an employee when they are unable to answer, but I can only report the information that the employee can organize and analyze from the task site. ”

Then this thing is not as good as the system, intelligent assistance at least knows how to search on the Internet......

The phone continued,

"The company needs to restart, I need to work overtime, check the status of the 42 warehouses in the city one by one tonight, and it is recommended to give priority to starting from the 7th, enter the red zone one by one to check the status of the monsters, and ensure that it does not get out of control."

Li Pan sneered,

"I'm a book! It's only 2,500 yuan a month, and you let me play with my life! ”

"I'm the fourteenth manager of Branch 0791."

"Two thousand five hundred!"

"This city used to be called the Thirteenth New Tokyo."

"Two thousand...... Well? Are you saying that the destruction of the old city has something to do with monsters? Didn't you say that the company did its own death......"

Li Pan suddenly reacted, the monster is out of control, isn't it the company's own death, not to mention the real company war, the change of dynasty, in 0791, that is, the first time that Gao Tianyuan was replaced by the Ye Clan. And seriously, the Ye clan didn't take your local aborigines, and they also reissued relief loans, and the company mainly came to make money.

But he immediately reacted again,

"That's my business, the situation in front of me is clearly a mess left by the people of the previous session! You have the ability to pull up those who deleted the files and end it up yourself!

Threaten me? Why do you tell me to save the world for 2,500 yuan a month?

Go and talk to the Grand Duke Carmilla of the Night Clan, and go and tell Sosuke Oda of Takamagahara, they have invested hundreds of trillions in the Night Capital, maybe they care. ”

Then the phone said slowly,

"I know that the treatment is not the key, the key is the contract, and only by following the contract can the rules be activated. And my managerial authority was only recognized by the filing cabinet on the basis of a temporary contract.

And I know they don't care, when the flood comes, it is always the one who stands on the top of the mountain who survives first, even if they invest hundreds of trillions in the night capital, it is just a drop in the bucket for them, and they can afford to reinvest thirteen times.

But the life of 2,500 yuan a month is all I have now. ”

"!"

Li Pan hung up the phone angrily and looked at the memo in his hand angrily.

'Delete/delete, identify, blue, a medium of communication with the subconscious, the object of communication is unknown, some people think that what they hear is a psychic echo, some people are tasked with communicating with us on the other side, it is some kind of artificial intelligence, some people think it is an auditory hallucination similar to schizophrenia, I think, maybe it is my own conscience. ’

Liang Nyima is big.

Li Pan crumpled the memo and threw it into the paper basket.

After thinking about it, I first made a phone call and asked the cleaner to come and wash the floor. Then get up and leave the company.

Anyway, let's take a look at the big bear.

Maybe he wasn't deleted by the company's existence, but was killed by the Vortex Gang.

That would at least give his family a chance to apply for an interest-free loan for work-related injury benefits.

Of course, there is little hope.
