Chen Ke knew that judging a monster's strength by its appearance and size was unreliable; logically, the bigger ones were usually more formidable. However, to conserve energy, he decided to let Ying Baiyi offer some insight.
Every monster was categorized and numbered by the Administration Bureau based on their attributes. During their second entry into the West Gold Building, Sleery and Yang Xiao had already briefed Chen Ke on the basic catalogue that investigators needed to memorize.
As a level 9 agent, Ying Baiyi certainly knew more than them. He immediately focused on S-level monsters and listed a few hundred from the thousands under containment.
Chen Ke carefully examined the monsters on the screen. Not all S-level monsters necessarily had a soul; only those classified as "Extraordinary" by the life countdown and identified as mutated individuals had "massive malformed souls."
Thus far, Chen Ke had acquired three souls.
