Chapter 393 One-on-one teaching by "The Light Chaser"
"entity?"
Colin saw that there was another figure under the dim light.
But after a closer look, it seems to be Vanessa...
This... is possession?
Colin roughly judged the situation.
At the same time, the dimly glowing clone came directly to the campfire, first glanced at the campfire, and then looked back at the campfire god, whose status was theoretically the same level as his own:
"Good evening, Mr. Bonfire, you seem to have something to ask me?"
If she hadn't heard someone calling her, she might not have come to meet privately this week, because her current body has already gone deep into the depths of the disaster...
Although operating an avatar has little impact on her, at this time, it is best not to be distracted if possible.
However, for the sake of this companion, she still found a relatively safe area, split off a clone, and came here through Vanessa...
"Um."
Colin nodded, without any greetings, and said simply: "There are mainly two things. The first is that I would like you to help me practice. Oh, no, help me improve my strength..."
"Improve your strength?" "Vanessa" tilted her head, looked at him, and motioned to continue.
The first thing that came to her mind was that the other party wanted a long-lasting blessing to strengthen himself and then perform some other tasks, but it seemed that the other party's requirements were not just that?
"Well, I have learned one thing from this short career as an employee. My abilities are limited. The more tasks I perform, the more I can feel my shortcomings. If I am satisfied with the present, sooner or later, I will fall into some unexpected predicament. Therefore, I want to become stronger. Only in this way can I have a chance to survive..."
Colin slowly spoke of his feelings, and then said: "I would like to ask you to help me further develop my experience and shortcomings through combat..."
Although the authority level of the "Light Chaser" company is slightly low and a little greedy for money, it is undeniable that her fighting ability is really very strong and she is the best choice to improve her strength.
Of course, he had considered asking Mr. Wu for help before, but he thought that it would be a huge cost for these people to use their extraordinary abilities, and they might lose control and die suddenly without any improvement, so he had to find another way...
"Ah... sorry, I'm not really that good at fighting."
After hearing what Colin said, Shana wanted to reject him, but Colin's next words choked her...
"Six thousand points..."
"Huh?" Shana blinked and was stunned for a moment.
Having had a transaction experience before, she knew that the other party could really come up with such a large amount of points.
Although I was inclined to accept the mission, and even began to recall my previous encounters, intending to find some problematic areas and provide guidance, but this score...
A little, a little too much...
Besides the so-called training, there won’t be any other requirements, right?
She has to lower her salary, otherwise she will be unable to sleep or eat well...
However, just as she was about to speak, Colin had already realized something, and before she could refuse, he raised his hand and said:
"I know that for you, six thousand may be a little too little for such a time-consuming and laborious task. Let's just make eight thousand..."
"Then... huh??"
Shana was about to say, let's just accept this price, but then she was stunned again when she realized what she had done.
When Colin raised his hand, she thought that the other party raised the points so high just to attract her attention, and then wait for her to agree, and then use some means to lower the price.
This method can often be seen in some markets.
But she really didn't expect that the price would not be pushed down, but raised, from six thousand to eight thousand...
Moreover, before she could say anything, she saw a task prompt appear.
[“654321” has completed the task “Key Improvement Special Plan”…]
[You have obtained "Campfire Points 8000", which have been transferred to the "Storage Room (10% handling fee has been deducted)". ]
"ah???"
Shana glared at her. She hadn’t even agreed yet, so how could the task be completed and handed over?
The next second, an inspiration made her understand the reason...
This is a one-sided task. Strictly speaking, it is not a transaction. In essence, the task is for the other party to put money into her pocket...
Just do it and it's done.
"Can the mission be done this way?"
In the distance, in the thick darkness of a city ruin, Shana sat on the head of a giant deformed monster.
He opened his pocket and saw 7,200 daily credits popping out.
The whole person fell into an indescribable silence...
Adding the more than 3,000 points she had left from her frugal life during this period, she now had tens of thousands of points!
The 500 points she saved over a year or two only accounted for a very small proportion of the total.
And what I got from this "God's messenger"...
It is more than the total of all the points she has earned in her Holy Crown career!
"this……"
Shana has never been so rich in her life...
However, if it was just to develop some combat experience, she felt that eight hundred, or even eighty, let alone eight thousand, would be enough...
After all, in her opinion...
No matter how difficult Colin was to deal with, he was not as difficult as the disembodied ancient god she had defeated for 800 points.
By conversion, a so-called "ancient god" is only worth 800 points...
This teaching is actually worth ten "ancient gods"!
However, before she could think about it, she heard the words of the campfire messenger from far away through her clone.
"Now that we have settled this, let's talk about the second thing, about the shield..."
"Shield..." the clone muttered, as if he had just remembered such a thing.
Although this item is a golden prop, it is dispensable to her now. During the battle, it is difficult to provide any effective help other than spiritual help...
Unless the true power of the item can be released.
But if the things inside are released forcefully, it will cause big troubles, and it is hard to say whether it can be taken back...
At this moment, looking at the expression of the envoy, Shana roughly guessed what the other party wanted to say:
"Do you still want to use it?"
" Um."
Colin was very satisfied with the effect of this item. In many cases, in addition to attacking, it had many other wonderful uses.
Shana was not surprised to hear what the other party said. This time, without waiting for Colin to continue speaking, she said directly:
"Can."
"My points are a bit low recently... huh?" This time, Colin had a question mark in his mind. He looked at the "Light Chaser" in front of him and said uncertainly: "You mean... I don't need to accumulate points anymore?"
"Yeah." The blurry light and shadow attached to Vanessa nodded.
Weird, when did this guy become so generous? Colin was surprised. In his eyes, the "Light Chaser" was the kind of guy who would not miss any chance to earn points. If there was any point to earn, he would never miss it...
Is it because you have earned too much during this period of time, and have already bought the props or equipment you wanted, so you don’t care about the few thousand points for renewal?
As the thought flashed through his mind, Colin continued to hear the other party speak, using Vanessa's voice, "You... I can't come over to take this item away recently. If you lose it, maybe... you will be more passive. Let's talk about it when I come..."
She seemed to have found an excuse to convince herself.
"Okay." Colin didn't say much.
After joining the program for cultivating outstanding talents, he suddenly understood why someone as powerful as the "Light Chaser" would be interested in just a few points.
This is because once this plan is released, the various upgrade costs will be huge.
The basic requirement is tens of thousands of points...
Even he could hardly eat it.
"But, from this perspective, no matter how much money is earned, the company will find a way to make it back. The talent plan is designed for people like us who can earn points, right?"
Colin sighed inwardly, then asked, "When will the training start?"
"You can do it right now, but before that, I have a request..." The blurred light and shadow spoke hesitantly.
"What request?" Colin asked curiously.
"Perhaps after a while, a group of approximately 30,000 disaster victims will escape from the magic fog disaster. Can you accept them? I can give..."
At this point, the "Light Chaser" paused, as if he was not sure what kind of offer he should make.
Although she has tens of thousands of points, she feels that when facing "654321", her confidence is not as much as when she had 500 points.
At that time, she might confidently offer a price of 300 points...
Then……
Shana didn't know the term "social death". When she knew it, she was afraid that doing this would make her...
However, just when she was thinking about using points or the long-term use of the "Shield of Fairness and Justice" as compensation, Colin agreed without even thinking...
"It is our duty as the Bonfire Company to save innocent victims. You just need to leave them to me. It doesn't matter if you have more..."
Originally, upgrading the "Level 3 Bonfire" required people, but I didn't expect the other party to send them directly.
As for the reward, Colin didn't really care...
If the remuneration is raised, these people will feel embarrassed to let them stay.
"Mr. Bonfire, thank you very much." Shana expressed her gratitude carefully.
"Well, then... when does the training start?" Colin looked at the other party expectantly.
"You can try it now. Use your shield to create a battlefield. Try to use all your means to defeat my clone. However, a more formal battle may take two days. I will make some arrangements first..."
As she spoke, a blurry shadow walked out from Vanessa's body and carefully laid the "Light" believer flat on the ground.
Hearing this, Colin didn't say much and started the battle directly.
He was also curious about how likely he was to win this time...
Especially this time, he has the orange equipment unlocked!
…
Just as the battle began, in the distance, Shana looked at the 10,000 points in her pocket, still a little dazed.
Inexplicably, she suddenly felt that she was a bit like the evil nobles in some kingdoms, who used cheap patterned glass products to go to the wild indigenous tribes, deceive and intimidate them, and exchange them for precious gold.
Especially...
In her heart, Colin was a kind-hearted and friendly person, who, like her, was saving the suffering people.
Many refugees in his territory have a kind of vitality that is hard to see in other places...
Comparing the two, her inexplicable sense of guilt became even deeper.
However, at this moment, after two contacts with Colin, she probably discovered some problems. For example, the other party's channel for obtaining points seemed to be a little different from hers?
Shana had calculated before that if she wanted to earn tens of thousands of points, it would take nearly half a year to complete three or four tasks a day.
but……
The mission experience of this "Bonfire Envoy"...
Aside from combat experience, he doesn't seem to have a lot of it.
Could it be that she hasn't worked hard enough?
However, before I could come up with anything, a new task popped up.
[Recycling the "Nightmare Lantern"...]
Shana narrowed her eyes, finally took a deep breath, and stood up from the head of the deformed creature under her.
"That dream object? It does fit some..."
Shana thought about it and had a lot of ideas in her mind. In her opinion, only by facing terror and fighting for life and death can one truly improve.
And training, no matter how much you do, is at most just a warm-up...
"I remember that thing was in the New Cathedral of the 'Spirit of the Earth and Nature' in a nearby fallen town. If I rob it, no, recycle it and create a semi-real dream, maybe I can improve my experience..."
"Well, we can also capture various abnormalities with different characteristics and powers, and lock them in the 'Nightmare Lantern'. Then, in the dream, we can gradually improve his combat experience against various enemies..."
"But the item is not of high rank. I need to... pick up some items from other churches to upgrade the 'Nightmare Lantern'."
Ideas one after another emerged in my mind.
Then, she glanced around. There were only a few dozen disaster victims who had been rescued in this town. Then, circles of light rippled in her right eye...
Bright red tears of blood flowed from the corners of his eyes.
Layer upon layer of light shines in reality, illuminating a door that exudes a terrifying aura.
Then, from the door, chains of light led them in.
Then, Shana closed her right eye and rubbed her eyes with her hand to relieve the discomfort caused by summoning the "Gate of Light".
During this process, the blood that had just flowed out decomposed into light, which she sucked into her mouth and reabsorbed to avoid wasting energy.
After doing all this, her figure turned into a stream of light and pierced into the magic fog filled with countless roars and weird things.
A few hours later.
In the sealed crypt of the Rebirth Cathedral of the "Spirit of the Earth and Nature".
With a dying wail...
The deer-shaped holy beast, which was trained by the Church of the Rebirth of the Spirit of Earth and Nature to protect the cathedral, collapsed suddenly after being completely twisted and deformed.
There was a hint of relief in those crazy eyes before death.
It looked at the figure shrouded in dazzling light and moved its eyes with difficulty, as if it wanted to express something.
"Saint... my body... may still have some... value... don't worry about it..."
The message was delivered with great difficulty, and this once sacred beast died completely.
"I understand." Shana glanced at it, and then looked towards the place where its eyes had just moved. There should be some survivors who were protected by it at its death.
Soon, she entered the cathedral and recovered the "devil's lantern".
Then rescue the survivors here and continue to seal them into the light gate...
Then, she returned to the hall and took a look at the huge corpse of the sacred beast. She actually understood that the other party meant to purify the polluted parts of its body and then distribute its flesh and blood to the victims to appease their hunger.
If it were before, she would have done so, but now she has so many more points in her pocket.
There is no need for that...
"Rest in peace."
Shana wiped out the body, then turned and left, intending to first transfer the survivors in the "Light Gate" who were about to reach the limit to a safe place, and then continue to collect "teaching materials" while saving people.
Of course, we also need to devote some energy to provide one-on-one tutoring to Colin.
After receiving feedback from the other side, she was surprised to find that the other party's strength had improved a lot this time...
Experience and everything else are enriched a lot at once.
