Chapter 47: Chapter 47: Disguise Seal

Pei Yan skeptically put his hand behind his back, watching as the stamp in Gao Yaping’s hand, which emitted a red glow, slowly approached his chest. Accompanied by wisps of white smoke and the smell of burning skin, Pei Yan was prepared but was still bitten by the intense burning sensation, sweating profusely and biting his lip.

"Hiss, roar, roar!" As Gao Yaping withdrew the stamp, she suddenly produced a spray bottle from nowhere and evenly sprayed it over the wound. The soothing coolness spread across the wound, drastically reducing the pain, causing Pei Yan to let out a sigh of comfort.

"Rub it yourself! Rub it evenly so the spray is absorbed," Gao Yaping reminded him after she finished spraying.

Following her instructions, Pei Yan gently rubbed his chest. After spraying and rubbing three more times, Gao Yaping finally told him to stop. Looking down at the large, messy, unattractive mark on his chest, he pondered how he would explain this to his family when he got home.

At this moment, Gao Yaping produced a small mirror out of thin air and handed it to him: "Take a look at your face now!"

Pei Yan, puzzled, took the mirror and looked at himself. No change, still the same.

"Use the previous method to inject the internal source into the mark, then look at the mirror!" Hu Wenjun reminded him.

Upon hearing this, Pei Yan immediately guessed the answer. Following the instructions, he acted swiftly. As he saw his face constantly changing in the mirror until it settled, despite being mentally prepared, he was still shocked and stupefied.

Holding the mirror and looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar face, his eyes seemed a bit smaller, his nose larger, cheeks rounder, sparse stubble, a melancholic gaze, oh, he even had a bit of gray hair.

This appearance gave him the feeling akin to when you’re walking down the street, and your mother grabs you and points at someone else, saying, "Look son, that person looks a bit like you," followed by the whole family staring and shaking their heads, saying, "No, can’t see the resemblance!"

After observing the facial changes, he looked down at his chest and fingers. The marks had indeed disappeared, reverting to flawless skin.

"This is a disguise-type mark. Due to work interests and abilities, we have many complex identities. If we appear in our real form, it would cause many troubles. So, you will use this appearance for missions. Keep the base energy supply for the mark, and it will conceal your body marks for you," Hu Wenjun explained.

"Now, I finally feel like I’m part of a mysterious organization. So, the way I see your appearances now, are these your real looks?" Pei Yan asked excitedly, suddenly feeling a chill of fear.

"What do you think?" Gao Yaping replied, then suddenly revealed a sinister grin that sent chills down Pei Yan’s spine.

Finally, Gao Yaping couldn’t help but burst into laughter, saying, "Silly, who disguises themselves at the office? If what you say is true, you wouldn’t see Director Gu’s black teeth; he only disguises himself as a normal person when appearing before others."

"Oh! Whew!" Pei Yan let out a long sigh and relaxed.

Hu Wenjun suddenly warned sternly, "Don’t overthink. About this mark, let me remind you: although this mark can change to other appearances, I advise you not to easily change into someone else’s form, except for the default appearance designed for you."

"Why not? Are there taboos?"

"Firstly, this default appearance is the most fitting to your physical structure and causes the least harm. Secondly, this appearance is reinforced with a special Secret Technique that makes you less noticeable in ordinary perception and all tech devices’ recordings, essentially reducing your presence, which aids in your work. Other appearances don’t have this effect," Gao Yaping explained, taking out a phone and taking a selfie with Pei Yan before handing the phone to him.

Looking down at the phone, the photo showed Gao Yaping bright and stunning, while Pei Yan appeared to blend with the background, his face flashily blurred and indistinct.

Hu Wenjun continued, "Third, changing into someone else’s appearance is a severe violation that could lead to impersonation and framing. To prevent internal personnel from doing so, the mark includes a tracking record. If you improperly transform into someone else, that appearance will be recorded in the mark, so unless it’s a highly special situation, don’t randomly use the stamp’s function, or you’ll be stuck writing reports afterward."

"Understood!" Pei Yan thought this requirement was reasonable; nobody wants to arbitrarily become another person for criminal framing.

Gao Yaping continued, handing Pei Yan a document pouch, returning her phone.

Taking the pouch, Pei Yan saw it labeled "Police Officer Certificate." Inside, the picture was his transformed appearance. Licking his lips slyly, he asked, "Is this real?"

"This document pouch is also modified. When you input the internal source, it can transform into various work certificates. You can choose the suitable document according to the situation. Rest assured, these certificates are officially recorded and genuinely effective."

After Gao Yaping’s explanation, Hu Wenjun persistently warned, "Remember, this document is for mission convenience, not for flaunting and showing off. Do not use it unless absolutely necessary. Our principle is to keep a low profile, and if you’re found abusing documents and authority, we’ll immediately retract the certificate, and you’ll face confinement and disciplinary actions."

"YES, SIR!" Pei Yan hurriedly pocketed the document, standing upright and saluting!

"Enough, let’s get him the rest of the equipment!" Hu Wenjun gestured helplessly, allowing Gao Yaping to continue gear distribution.

Pei Yan received two copper rings from Gao Yaping, tossing them in his hand and curiously saying, "This wouldn’t be the Heaven and Earth Circle, would it!!"

"Not that powerful, but close enough," Hu Wenjun said, taking the two rings from Pei Yan to give to Gao Yaping, then produced an identical copper ring from his finger.

He swiftly grabbed Pei Yan’s wrist, horizontally striking it. Just as Pei Yan thought the ring would hit his wrist, it passed through, encircling his right hand.

Before he could react, the ring shrank rapidly like a magical bracelet, tightly encasing his wrist. Subsequently, it extended layers of copper, completely covering Pei Yan’s forearm like armor.

"Ah!!!" Pei Yan cried out, twisting to the ground in pain.
