Chapter 399 "Double Body: Death Immunity"
The figure drawn with lines was a little sloppy, without any details of facial features, but Colin could roughly tell that it was probably the official guard stationed here...
At this moment, it can be seen from their hurried movements that the loss of control was not the first thing that happened here.
However, not long after, a part of the wall collapsed, revealing a hole, from which more than a dozen figures rushed out and attacked other people present.
The people on the scene were shocked and also started to fight back...
Unfortunately, facing this group of well-prepared attackers, the guards on the scene suffered heavy losses in an instant.
Even though there were a few stronger guards, it was still difficult to hold on.
The battle didn't last long before it was over ...
After taking over this area at almost no cost, Colin and others saw that they dispersed as if they had planned in advance and continued to sneak into the outskirts of Base No. 5.
But unfortunately, at this point, the lines can hardly be maintained.
Apart from knowing that the entire process from their appearance to their departure took no more than ten minutes, nothing else is clear.
It is unknown what the purpose of their attack is...
"They have special countermeasures. I can't see too much detail. They even specifically erase their own aura..."
Beside Colin, Manyin sighed, stretched out his hand and waved, retracting the black lines.
"really……"
Colin thought back to what he had just seen and asked curiously, "Do you know the so-called 'Awakener'?"
As Mr. Wu's agent contact, Xuan Xuanjin obviously knew about this matter and nodded immediately:
"You mean, all these people are that kind of guys?"
"Well, I'm not quite sure, because there are too few traces left by this group of people's actions. But precisely because of that, I think they are like those 'Awakeners'." Colin briefly explained his thoughts.
"The current intelligence is that the 'Awakeners' usually appear alone and in small numbers, like some kind of accidental special case. We have never seen them act together, and there has never been a person with a strength higher than level five..."
"But after hearing you say that, I also think that the possibility exists."
"If that's the case, then things will be troublesome..."
Xuanyun Jin's tone became more and more solemn. He looked around again, at the corpses scattered all over the ground, and thought of the interference when the scene just reappeared, and a group of high-level "awakeners" who seemed to have formed a team...
Indistinctly, one can seem to catch a glimpse of an invisible giant hand trying to disrupt everything.
Colin followed his gaze and looked around, then said, "I feel like you should start a round of internal cleansing compared to this matter."
The mastermind behind this attack has a very high level of understanding of the situation here.
They might even transfer their higher combat power to find an opportunity for invasion ...
To be honest, if there was no internal information leaked out, Colin would not believe it anyway.
Hearing his words, many people had no objection.
Internally...it's time for a thorough cleaning.
But before they could say more, they both felt something at the same time and turned their necks to look somewhere.
The wall there squirmed, and a round, shorter figure walked out. His entire body was covered with long symbols with red characters on a yellow background. After that, he looked at the scene silently, and then a strange sound came from his abdomen:
"Sorry, I have to ensure the safety inside..."
"Well, is there any problem with the internal area?" Xuan Duojin asked.
"No."
"That's fine."
Xuanzi Jin looked at this special clone of Base No. 5 and wanted to say something, but finally shook his head and did not continue speaking.
As the garrison of Base No. 5, the other side's performance this time can be said to be very bad.
Its strength is definitely not just this...
But many of the senior insiders knew very well that, in a sense, this defense was a success.
Because what he needs to ensure is the safety of the core area inside Base No. 5, so here in the periphery, he can only intervene to a limited extent. Even if his main body comes here and can quickly suppress this group of people, it is impossible for him to really come...
At present, there have been no mistakes in the core area, and there is nothing wrong with the other party's entire response process.
After the conversation, there was silence for a while.
Then, the chubby man glanced at Colin and spoke indifferently, as if reporting:
"I can sense that there are still some out-of-control anomalies wandering around in the base, but the threat level is not high. Several level 3 armed suppression teams have been dispatched, so there shouldn't be any other problems...
"In addition, the enemy's target may be some specific objects, because I can feel that some objects are lost...
"But what it is exactly has yet to be confirmed. If necessary, I will let you know as soon as the results come out."
"Okay." Xuan Duojin nodded.
Afterwards, after listening to the conversation between the two for a while, Colin left Base No. 5 first.
Although he was very interested in the enemy's specific purpose, he was not very interested in being here...
On the way back, he called Qin Chuan and others and asked them to call everyone to report to his office.
Not long after, when Colin returned to the city and walked into the office.
The eyes of the "experienced babies" who didn't know what was going on were brightened, thinking that a new mission was about to begin...
The feeling of being able to upgrade while lying down is so comfortable!
However, Colin just checked and made sure that there was nothing wrong with the people around him, then dismissed everyone present, leaving only Hu Zheng on crutches, Qin Chuan with bandages all over his body, and Xia Liufang.
"Mr. Colin, do you want to ask about what happened this morning?" Xia Liufang asked, curious about the reason why Colin called the meeting.
"No, if you want to ask that, just ask it on the phone."
Colin waved his hand and continued, "From now on, for all the unusual tasks you encounter, whether you can solve them or not, try to delay them as much as possible and make a priority list. I will solve them together when I have time every once in a while."
Although he was accustomed to seeing death, it usually referred to the death of enemies or irrelevant people.
Seeing the tragic situation outside Base No. 5 today, he suddenly became a little worried that if he wasn't careful one day, Qin Chuan, Hu Zheng, and Xia Liufang would be beaten into pieces...
After working together for so many days, he personally didn't want this to happen.
so……
It may be tiring to demand this of yourself, but it’s okay to be tiring.
Although there are many dangerous things on Earth, it’s not a big problem as long as the mission is not assigned by the company.
The overall environment here tends to be stable, and the probability of encountering extraordinary and unexpected things is very low.
After hearing his words, several people were stunned for a moment, but nodded without hesitation.
"Boss, is it related to what happened at Base No. 5 today?" Qin Chuan asked curiously.
"It is somewhat related, but the details are confidential. If the higher-ups want to tell you, you should receive the information in the next two days." Colin did not explain too much.
After making sure that there was no problem with his men, he went straight home.
Nothing happened that night until the next day.
Colin took a group of soy sauce to solve the surrounding problems every day, and then went to the market at last, bought some seafood, returned home, and asked the maid to prepare dinner...
Normally, he doesn't eat seafood, but he didn't eat it before only because he had no money and not for any other reason.
But, thinking about the catastrophic event that might happen soon...
Ke Lin is ready to fill the gap in his life, otherwise he will have nowhere to eat seafood in the future.
Even if a disaster strikes and filth spreads, maybe the seafood will come ashore to eat him...
However, just as dinner was ready and before we could even start eating, many blondes sent us messages.
While picking up a crab leg, Colin opened the text message and saw that the content was about Base No. 5.
At present, according to Mr. Wu's observations, it is basically certain that the enemy is indeed the "Awakeners", a group of "Awakeners" who can fight against level 8 personnel, know the internal mechanism intelligence, and work together.
Secondly, the things these people stole also have a follow-up...
However, when he saw the stolen items, Colin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, because the stolen items were somewhat related to him.
Some time ago, he went to a school to deal with some leftover items from an "Astronomy Observation Society", some special oil-based pigments with strange activities.
"Just to grab these things, you didn't hesitate to expose yourself? Could it be that you missed some important items at that time?"
Colin was stunned. He remembered that the key abnormal nature of this mission seemed to have been taken away by the company.
The rest are just some inconspicuous stuff...
Could it be a mistake?
He couldn't help but send a message to ask, but Xuan Duojin responded quickly and told him that he thought so at first, because there were several lost objects, but through some of their extraordinary methods of "predicting fate", they were sure that it was this thing.
He even consulted Mr. Wu in the end, and he was told to trust his own judgment...
"So, this group of people rushed in and killed people indiscriminately, exposing themselves, just for a little useless paint?"
Colin pursed his lips, not really understanding the behavior of this group of people.
However, due to the lack of intelligence on the enemy, he could not guess any useful information in this regard...
After thinking for more than ten minutes without any results, I just gave up.
"At present, the authorities should focus on the 'Awakeners'. I hope to catch these guys as soon as possible, or get more intelligence. Otherwise, the current situation of having so much energy but nowhere to use it is really a bit passive."
Shaking his head, Colin took a deep breath and prepared to continue eating.
But at this moment, an intuition suddenly arose in his heart.
"What's the matter again? Can we have dinner?"
Colin put down his bowl with a curse, took out the parchment, and then saw that there was a strange task called "Return of Props" on it.
However, this task was completed as soon as it was taken over.
"This is... is it the receipt of the batch of containment items that was traded half a month ago?"
Colin opened the " storage room" and took a look, and found that there were eight more props in his pocket, two purple, three green and three white.
According to the task instructions, he can choose one of these eight props as his reward.
"The first purple item, the 'Ghost Soldiers Passing Through' scroll, can release a large number of 'Ghost Soldiers' as a means of attack. It's a summoning item that lasts for quite a while, but the quantity is very large. It can summon hundreds of 'Ghost Soldiers', but the quality seems not very good. It's only slightly better than the physical fitness of an F-class personnel who carries nothing..."
"But if used well, with hundreds of ghost soldiers, each with a bag of explosives tied to their body, the effect should still be quite good..."
"The second purple item is 'Double Body·Death Immunity'. It adds an overlapping clone to my original body. This clone cannot leave my 10-meter range. Its strength is not that great, but that's not the point. The point is, with this thing, as long as I suffer any actual fatal attack, it can die in my place..."
Colin briefly glanced at the purple equipment and then looked at the other green equipment. He felt that one or two of the items were quite effective.
For example, there is a prop that can promote the rapid growth of plants, which is simply a farming artifact.
If it is brought to "World Number -13", it will be a complete kill.
Compared to the two purple suits, this thing seems to be more practical...
"Yes, when choosing equipment, it is best to choose the right one. For a person who is about to be seriously injured and dying, a green suit that can stabilize the injury and save his life is more valuable than a gold item."
"So, the key to props is whether they are suitable and useful..."
"Instead of blindly pursuing too high a rating, if you don't choose well, it won't work even if the rating is high..."
As his thoughts turned, Colin seemed to have a higher understanding of the choice of props.
Then he chose a prop with a purple name.
【Double Body·Death Immunity】
【Quality: Excellent. 】
【Condition: Almost new (89% completeness). 】
【Energy level: None.】
[Effect "Death Immunity": This item is a special type of item. After use, it will always exist in the user's body in a passive form. It can exempt the user from any level of death attack and restore the user's entire status (excluding items, etc.). It can also be used at ordinary times. You can find out the details by yourself. ]
[Negative effect: When "Death Immunity" is activated, this item becomes completely ineffective. ]
[Note: Jiejiejie, what made you feel that I only have one life? ]
…
"It's good to avoid death once. Well, only if I'm alive, everything will make sense. If I'm dead, it won't matter how fast the potatoes in the field of 'World No. 13' grow."
Colin nodded and took out the "Double Death Immunity" to take a look.
It looks like a burning blue fireball.
Looks a bit weird...
After watching for a few seconds, Colin did not hesitate any longer. He suddenly exerted force with his five fingers and crushed the blue fireball. Countless flames immediately penetrated his skin.
Then, Colin noticed that there was a barely noticeable blurry figure under his feet.
At the same time, he also learned more about it...
"I feel like I'm trapped by it. Well, it's not accurate to call it 'death immunity'. To be more precise, it's like a special protective shield. Only when it is destroyed can my true form reappear..."
Colin rolled his eyes and thought about it thoughtfully.
Then, he shifted his attention to a letter in the "storage room".
On this letter is Ms. Rabbit's signature.
