Chapter 252 "Props" Production Intention
"Well, with this trip, you should be able to find that the fragments of our 'Book of Fortune Telling' are different from those in the 'Bonfire Company', and will only be used by ordinary people or people who 'predict fortunes'..."
"really."
Colin nodded, remembering that the official "Book of Numerology: Fragments" was physical, but the company's one was not.
As for the candidates, he only noticed that this seemed to be the case after the other party had spoken.
"Haha, this is the process of becoming a 'fortune teller'. As long as you use it, you will be contaminated..."
"Will it be contaminated if used?" Colin was stunned. He used a lot.
"Yes, but you don't have to worry."
Mr. Wu laughed, but his laughter sounded a bit bitter: "I don't know how the people from Bonfire Company did it, they removed the pollution and turned it into a pure prop.
"Although I don't want to admit it, Bonfire Company's use of the Book of Numerology is indeed better than ours."
This is quite normal. The original body of the "Book of Numerology" was lost from the "Bonfire Company". I just don't know how it got into the hands of the official...
Colin didn't care about it, and the makers in the "Bonfire Company" were indeed very good at making various anomalies into props.
The various props with various effects on the internal trading platform can also be said to be a blood and tears history of weird anomalies and reviewers.
However, even though he knew this, he did not say it out loud.
"It seems that Bonfire Company is not only good at making the Book of Numerology, but also various props."
The old man put down his empty teacup, took an almond and put it in his mouth: "Perhaps we can have some room for cooperation in this regard. There are many dangerous things to be handled and contained across the country or the world. What do you think?"
Is this the idea of exporting "raw materials" to have "Bonfire Company" process them, and then using the "raw materials" to offset the price to get the items?
Colin didn't need to think much when he heard the other party's words, and he understood what the other party was thinking.
After a brief thought, he nodded: "It should be possible, let me find out later..."
Compared with the huge number of "gene compensation drugs", the possibility of cooperation in this area is much greater.
Because "Bonfire Company" also has a considerable demand for those dangerous things themselves.
And at the bonfire sacrifice site in the other world "World No. 13", he still needs a third-stage "beast transformation" to upgrade.
If the two parties reach a cooperation on this, then there is no need to risk the danger to catch him. After all, isn't it normal for some fire consumption to occur during the transaction between the official and the "Bonfire Company"?
At this moment, Ke Lin suddenly thought of something and couldn't help asking, "Mr. Wu, can I ask you something?"
"Just tell me if you have any questions. I can't always ask you questions." The old man said with a smile.
"Do you know what the world will end in 2044?"
Colin has learned about 2044 through various channels more than once, but unfortunately he has no one to ask. Fortunately, there is someone in front of him who can ask questions.
As a powerful person whose main abilities include observing the future through means such as "foreknowledge" and "deduction", Mr. Wu must know something.
"2044? We have been collecting intelligence in this regard, but..."
Mr. Wu shook his head: "I don't know."
"ah?"
Kelin was stunned. He didn't expect the other party to shake his head so decisively.
"Although I do feel that I have observed something, it is difficult for me to describe that feeling in a practical way, so I can tell you that I have not observed anything. However, compared to this, the bigger trouble may come from the various disasters that occurred before 2044."
The old man said with certainty: "For us, the end of the world will happen before 2044."
This... Colin was about to speak, but suddenly remembered the message from his "future self": there is no need to wait until 2044, the end of the world caused by various ancient gods has already come.
The Earth seems to be in a similar situation now. If we don’t pay attention, we don’t need to wait until 2044 to experience the end of the world…
Although he was still curious about 2044, seeing that Mr. Wu really didn't seem to know, he didn't ask any more questions.
Perhaps Bonfire Company has more information.
Then, the two chatted for a while like friends. Although they looked several times older than each other, Colin found that the old man could actually get along well with him and there was no sense of generation gap.
But at this moment, Mr. Wu seemed to have suddenly thought of something and said:
"Speaking of this, there are some things you need to pay attention to, about the end of the world..."
"What do you mean?" Colin asked curiously.
"In the future I have observed, the disaster will definitely happen, but the time is uncertain. It may be in the next few years, or it may be more than ten years later, but it will not be later than 2044. So if you have the ability, you must improve yourself as soon as possible..."
"I understand..." Colin nodded. As his experience grew, he also had a feeling that a storm was about to come.
"The severity of the disaster may be beyond our imagination. The destruction of civilization may happen overnight. For this reason, perhaps we will launch the 'Spark' project before this sign appears. With your situation, you are likely to be selected..."
"'Fire'?"
"In essence, it means leaving this world and looking for another place suitable for human survival..."
"this……"
Colin was stunned. Has the situation become so pessimistic before it even started?
He still couldn't imagine the reality that the home he had lived in for decades might be gone in a few days.
"I can't tell you the specifics yet, but we must be prepared for this. Given your situation, the chances of you being selected are quite high..."
Mr. Wu's tone was much lower, and he seemed to be pessimistic about the future.
But soon, he shook his head again, calmed down, and said in a barely encouraging tone: "Of course, maybe the efforts now can save everything in the future.
"Okay, okay, we've been talking for so long, and I still have some things to deal with, so let's stop here for now ."
"Okay." Colin had no objection.
After a few hours of "chatting", this first conversation ended.
However, before leaving, Mr. Wu suddenly said, "By the way, I will provide you with some help for what you are going to do if you join us..."
What am I going to do? Haven't I said it yet? Is this a prediction?
Colin was stunned. He was not sure whether what the other party was talking about was what he thought - the state of investigating the "Book of Numerology".
But before he could think about it, the old man suddenly disappeared. After a gesture from the several staff members waiting on the side, they took Colin out of the office and brought him to a specially arranged room .
I don’t know where this place is, it looks like a hotel, but I don’t know if there are any bugs or anything. However, Colin didn’t care too much about these things and just sat on the big bed in the room.
"I have figured out the official's request. Basically, it is about 'gene compensation potion' and the intention to cooperate in handing over the 'contained' to the company to be made into props..."
"But their demands have been resolved, but I still don't know what to do with mine. Is what he said what I thought..."
"You have something to say but you don't say it clearly. Get lost, Riddler..."
Colin rubbed his forehead. The task assigned to him by Miss Rabbit was to investigate the status of the "Book of Numerology".
It was just that there was no good opportunity at the time, so I didn't speak, but I didn't expect the other party to speak instead...
What is more troublesome is whether what the other party said is what he thought.
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Ke Lin calmed down his emotions, stood up and looked at the door monitor. Seeing that Qin Chuan and his friends were outside, he opened the door for them:
"What's up?"
"No, it's probably just to inform you that we'll be back tomorrow."
"So fast?" Colin was surprised.
He thought he would stay here for a long time.
"Well, the other thing is that the organization has already decided that you will be the person in charge of our area from now on, and will be in charge of any abnormal situations in the area. We have no objection to this..."
Qin Chuan felt emotional, but he didn't have much opinion. After all, Colin's strength was there.
It would be better to say that it is a waste of talent for a person who can rival an eighth-level strongman to just stay in one area.
"I'm the one in charge?"
"Well, of course you can refuse..."
"Well, let me think about it..."
Colin groaned for a moment, but did not rush to refuse, because this might be " help" provided by the old man.
"Oh, I'm so envious. You can actually talk to Mr. Wu for so long. It's hard for me to even meet him. If I could get some guidance from him, maybe I could avoid a lot of detours. His health regimen seems to be quite useful..."
Hu Zheng, who was standing beside him, spoke with envy in his tone, "He is the youngest of the few level nine personnel in the world."
"Youngest? Mr. Wu looks to be over 90, yet he is the youngest. He is indeed well-maintained. By the way, how old are the other Level 9 personnel?"
When Kelin thought about the old man's condition, he felt that it was indeed okay. He was wise, calm, and knew how to live. He soaked red dates and wolfberries in Pu'er tea, and it was obvious that he knew how to maintain his health.
If there is a chance to get maintenance methods, I must ask and bring a copy to the old man in the welfare home.
However, compared to this, he was more curious about how old the other ninth-level masters were...
Just as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt that there was something wrong with the expressions of several people looking at him.
"What's wrong?"
"Mr. Wu is only 38 this year..."
"ah???"
"Oh, I said that wrong..."
That’s right, how could he be only 38? Ke Lin complained in his heart, but when he heard Hu Zheng’s next words, he almost spit out a mouthful of water.
"Strictly speaking, Mr. Wu is 37 years old this year, not yet 38."
