Chapter 388: A paranoid man obsessed with human nature!
"What on earth happened?"
The Level 5 personnel looked puzzled, their brains becoming increasingly confused as they looked at the scene in front of them.
The horrible beings that the evil enemies had summoned with great effort not only failed to fight against the enemy, but also attacked their own people...
What's even more bizarre is that now he is inexplicably bowing to Colin?
No, what about Colin, who is apparently as “equal” to him?
The level 5 personnel looked at the flames on his body and felt deeply concerned. He saw with his own eyes that the other party did not move at all during the whole process, but just let the flames spread out to kill everyone.
It clearly didn't feel hot, like a flame that couldn't even light cotton, but it roasted all the evil enemies into charcoal...
this……
"It's not a talisman, it's not 'fortune telling', and it's not like 'divine fighting'. What kind of power is this?"
The Level 5 personnel suddenly remembered some rumors.
Rumor has it that a large number of other people have been recruited internally recently ...
Is this one of them?
But what about the "Starlight Girl"?
How could such a being bow to him?
The Level 5 personnel were particularly puzzled, as this could not be explained by strong enough strength.
Even "Mr. Wu", who has the ability to adjust the fate of others, may not be able to do this.
However, as for his doubts, not only him, but even Colin himself was not quite clear.
"I always feel like there's some behind-the-scenes deal going on that I'm not aware of..."
Colin glanced at the "Starlight Girl" who lowered her head in submission. He suspected that there must have been a behind-the-scenes deal behind everything, otherwise the company would not have been able to find this place so accurately.
This time, he was probably sent here to ensure the final completion of the mission.
If he hadn't come, the "Starlight Girl" might have run away or broken her promise, but if he came, he would have stopped her. Of course, it was estimated that he was the only one who would wait for the "Starlight Girl" to come...
Someone else would probably stop it before it happened.
Only he would take a risk for points.
Of course, this is just Colin's guess. Upon closer inspection, there are many loopholes and no evidence.
But Colin felt that there must be some behind-the-scenes deal.
As the thought flashed through his mind, he looked past the Daughter of Starlight and towards the followers who had turned into charcoal...
These guys are pretty miserable.
Maybe it was sold from the beginning...
"From this perspective, the believers who believe in them cannot be generalized at all."
Colin withdrew his gaze thoughtfully and looked at the "Star Girl" in front of him.
At this moment, except that his body would occasionally tremble in the aftereffects of something, the other party had basically recovered from the effects of the bone spur.
Among all the captured enemies, he recovered relatively quickly.
Without giving it much thought, he called up the task in his mind, chose to complete it, and then prepared to exchange points with this "Daughter of Starlight".
Although I don't know what the company is going to do with this thing...
But for him, this thing, apart from being pleasing to the eyes, is definitely not as real as points.
However, at this moment, Colin's heart suddenly shuddered.
He immediately felt that something that could cause a fatal threat seemed to be about to happen, but no picture appeared in his mind...
"No picture... I'm not the target? Oops!"
A scream came from the side, and Colin suddenly realized something. He immediately turned around and looked at the Level 5 personnel who were still holding their breath.
At this moment, a large group of abnormal things, with no specific shape, but only shadows, emerged from the ground beside the other party, making a "squeaking" sound...
"mouse?"
As Colin's thoughts flashed, he saw that the calf of the level 5 personnel was bitten clean in less than a second!
At this rate, the opponent would be eaten up in just a few seconds.
I might not be able to save him in time...
Thinking of this, he decisively activated "Time Stagnation".
In an instant, amid the roar of the engine, everything came to a standstill...
Colin stretched out his hand in that direction, and the flames surged out, burning all the mice that were only shadows but not entities...
But saving this colleague did not alleviate Colin's inner warning at all.
Suddenly, a faint scream came into his ears.
“Help…Help…”
In the inhuman fluctuation of thoughts, Colin's pupils shrank, and he tilted his head to see that beside the "Daughter of Starlight", there was a large group of rats with blood-red light on their bodies pounced on it...
There are tens of thousands of them, and although they are similar to the "rats" that attacked the Level 5 officials, they seem to have been blessed by some hidden entity, and have a wriggling red light on their bodies.
So that even in "Time Stagnation" one can still act without being affected too much!
At this time, the body of "Starlight Girl" is much stronger than that of a level five personnel.
They couldn't eat each other, they just surged up, bit each other, and dragged in a certain direction...
The time that Colin originally used to freeze the enemy has now become a shackle for the "Daughter of Starlight".
"Damn it! This is the enemy's real goal!"
As his thoughts turned, Colin turned quickly, rushed to the "Starlight Girl" and grabbed its shoulder with one hand.
Even in solidified space, he could feel a huge force wrestling with him.
Immediately, Colin lifted the "Time Stagnation" effect.
“Tatta…”
The sound of the hour hand ticking could be heard.
Time stop ends...
Then, an even more terrifying force appeared, and the strange cries of the "rats" group sounded from all directions.
"Without time stagnation, their power is stronger than before."
Colin clenched his teeth, the skin between his right fingers turned white, and veins bulged on his forehead.
He knew that if he let go now, his points gift package would be stolen by these damn "rats", so he immediately mobilized all his strength and let the flames devour them while dragging them.
However, in addition to the group of rats that seemed to be glowing red as one, there were also many ordinary "rats" rushing over.
They fell one after another, one group after another, rushing towards the flames recklessly.
Even if he was burned and screamed miserably, he still tried his best to stand in front of the red light mouse...
With their terrifying number, they actually managed to block the flames for a moment!
As for the "Starlight Girl" who was caught in the middle, she tried many times to disperse and escape, but the rat teeth that bit her were like special nails, making it impossible for her to do so.
"No, if this continues, I'll run out of energy."
Colin was furious and activated his "Potential Burst" skill, "Unrivaled Attack!"
Under the sudden explosive power, there was a tearing sound.
The "Starlight Girl" screamed.
A part of its dark starry robe was torn, and that thing seemed to be a part of its flesh and blood.
Colin felt his hands lighten.
The "Daughter of Starlight", who was originally very tall, is now about one-third thin!
As for the group of "rats" emitting red light, they bit some of the "Daughters of Starlight" and fled directly into an unknown place, disappearing from this place extremely quickly.
"Are these the other enemies mentioned in the mission?"
Colin frowned and glanced at the "Daughter of Starlight" who was held in his hand as light as a piece of clothing, and directly decided to hand in the company's task.
When the invisible transparent vortex appeared, he threw it directly into it, regardless of its screams due to being torn apart...
At the same time, the task settlement began. Colin took a look at the results and his face turned very bad in an instant.
"The rating is B-minus, and the points are only over 8,000. It should have been at least 15,000..."
Colin muttered to himself silently and put away his complaints. Thinking about the group of rats just now, he realized that the rats seemed to have appeared in the "Disordered Ghost Train" operation.
Not only that, he had a vague hunch that these things were most likely related to the experience in the "Seventh Box World".
Those things hidden behind the scenes are about to start moving...
…
At the same time, in a large, dark and gloomy hall, under the only incandescent light in the hall, the shadows of many mice, big and small, were reflected.
Some of them were eating, some were fighting, some were playing cards, some were playing mahjong, some were playing airplane games, and some were watching airplane games. The scene was chaotic and lively...
However, if someone enters the hall, they will find that there is "nothing" here.
In the middle of the hall, on an exquisite armchair, a "rat" that was obviously much larger seemed to be sleeping soundly.
Judging from its shadow alone, it is almost the same size as a ten-year-old child...
All the "rat" shadows passing by here will lower their voices to avoid disturbing each other.
However, at this moment, the "rat" on the armchair seemed to open its eyes.
An invisible aura swept through the hall...
All the "rats" stopped what they were doing and knelt down in front of the "big rat" on the armchair.
At this moment, a group of "rats" with red glow all over their bodies emerged from a corner of the wall...
They quickly came to the "big rat", some of them had bloated stomachs, opened their mouths, and vomited out something dark and dotted with starlight...
"Very good, very good, one more raw material!"
The "big mouse" made a satisfied sound, stretched out a small paw, and moved the tip of the paw.
Then, a strange crucible was dragged out from the void...
In the pot, countless twisted colors intertwined together, like a unique pigment.
It threw the fragments of the Dark Star Robe into it, and took out a stone pestle. A group of rats immediately swarmed over and began to grind the raw materials they had just obtained, trying to twist them into it.
Then, just as he was about to reward this group of mice, a large group of mouse shadows ran out from a corner.
But compared to the others, the shadows of this group of mice were severely mutilated.
They also ran to the "big rat", their stomachs swollen, and they vomited out pieces of weird mineral crystals filled with distorted colors...
"Not bad, not bad. We have obtained another raw material. It seems that the matter over there is over?"
The "big rat" picked up a smaller "rat", put it into its mouth and chewed it to obtain information.
Soon he realized that the battle of the "Lost Fragment World" was over...
"On the battlefield, the bodies of the C-level personnel were all taken away by the company, and the body of the 'Ancient God' that was dragged to death by the C-level personnel was revived and recycled by the 'Red Moon' mother..."
"'Son of Voice', 'Eye of Terror', 'Lord of the Blue Star' and others died in the chaos, 'Star of Dawn' and others disappeared, and many first-level mercenary employees of the first and second 'Box Worlds' were seriously injured, but it seems that only a few are left..."
"On ordinary battlefields, all those who were fooled basically returned to their mothers..."
"This time, we recovered a lot of excellent biomass, and Mother Red Moon is one step closer to awakening."
"Unfortunately, the 'Fire Bearer' seeds also appeared..."
As "Big Rat" muttered to himself, he basically understood the follow-up of the battle.
This incident can be said to be a win-win situation for two people and a loss for one person...
Mother Red Moon harvested a large amount of high-quality biomass, and he got enough raw materials, but Bonfire Company also recovered a considerable amount of lost information, etc.
"No, it should be two wins and two losses. The Fire Bearer reserve has now become a real seed."
The "big rat" muttered to himself, showing great hostility.
If the "Fire Bearer" really appears again, it will become a huge variable in the future.
The strength of a newly emerged "Fire Owner" itself may not be a problem. The problem is that the "Fire Owner" has the right to mobilize a lot of other authority in the company.
Their relationship with the company is not like the relationship between "God" and believers of general evil forces, but a special relationship like that between "body" and "brain cells".
At special times, they can even use some means to make the "Campfire Special Goods Company" survive to a certain extent...
This is where the real trouble lies with these paranoid people who are obsessed with the good side of human nature.
"If it wasn't for the revelation from 'Mother' that this bait was obviously poisonous, I really couldn't help but eliminate it..."
"However, as long as the plan goes smoothly, once the 'World Barrier' is overturned and the 'Red Moon' begins to fully recover, even if the other party succeeds in being promoted, it will be difficult for him to do anything..."
The "big rat" withdrew his thoughts and threw all the crystals into the crucible, letting the other "rats" grind and crush them.
Waiting for the "paint" to be made...
He can depict himself, free himself from this abnormal "body" and reveal his true appearance.
…
On the returning helicopter, Colin counted his points and felt a little headache.
I thought the event had ended smoothly, but suddenly a group of rats appeared and ate up most of my points.
He had long guessed that if the blessing of the "Red Moon" was sufficient, it would be possible to ignore time stops to a certain extent.
But this is the first time I've encountered such a thing...
"You have to be more careful next time. There are still many variables before the mission is finally completed."
Colin secretly took note of this lesson.
However, apart from the "Daughter of Starlight", there were no major losses in this mission. Only two level 5 personnel were bitten slightly, and the others, including the undercover agent, had been rescued.
The authorities are also capable of handling these injuries so that the person will not be left with disability...
"Before the promotion mission begins, there seems to be no other special missions. I have to improve my combat effectiveness. Whether it is the idea of using props, proficiency, or other physical aspects, I have to be more proficient."
Colin had some rough arrangements for what was to come.
However, before he could continue thinking deeply, he suddenly realized something and looked up at an empty seat opposite him in the helicopter.
Before I knew it, a middle-aged man with an older face appeared there .
