Chapter 402: A Bit Too Urban
"The mission requires that at 1 a.m. tonight, no, at 1 a.m. tomorrow, you must project into the hiding place of the followers of the Dawn Star and use them to collect intelligence on other abnormal forces as much as possible..."
"Then, we will gather them together and dispose of them harmlessly."
"The time limit is half a month..."
After briefly reading the mission, Colin could only sigh that the "Starlight Girl" surrendered very clearly.
The entire "Dawn Star" follower organization is probably sold out completely.
It is estimated that it won’t be long before they are wiped out from this world.
"The only difficulty of the mission is not to reveal the truth. At least, we cannot reveal the truth before all members of this organization return to their hidden sanctuary..."
"With some assistance from the Daughter of Starlight, the problem won't be that big."
"And if they come back and reveal their true identity... I just need to deal with it in time. As long as no one finds out, I will still have successfully infiltrated."
After a quick look, Colin roughly understood the difficulties of this task.
When it comes to being a "messenger of God" to fool people, he can be considered a "professional" and doesn't have to worry about stage fright or anything like that.
However, the followers of "Dawn Star" are somewhat abstract, I don't know if I can pretend well...
Shaking his head slightly, Colin looked up at the wall clock again. It was around five o'clock in the afternoon, so there was still plenty of time.
Then he opened the parchment trial task and took a look.
The current number of users is about 1,700, of which more than 1,400 are team users and less than 300 are single users...
"Let's do a rough calculation. Team mode gives 20 points each time, and there are more than 1,200 people. Rounding it up to 1,400, after deducting the company's share, I can get 14 points each time, a total of more than 19,000. If I round it up to 300 for each person, it's probably more than 23,000..."
"Not bad. It's only been a short while since it was opened, but I've already earned over 40,000 points. It's almost equivalent to me working very hard to complete a relatively troublesome large-scale mission."
"With these points, I can consider continuing to repair advanced items. However, the number of people clearing levels now seems to have slowed down a lot..."
Colin grunted, opened the internal group chat and observed it for more than ten minutes before quickly determining the specific reason.
Most of the people who experienced it at the beginning were F-level employees...
However, although this copy has rewards, its greater significance lies in improving one's own foundation.
As for the F-level employees, once they enter the company, even if the C-level guys want to let them go and give them guidance, they can easily be killed by accident.
After all, the other party is in a semi-out-of-control state, not a normal state.
So after they experienced being killed once or twice, they lost their curiosity - in their opinion, although the dungeon of "World No. 13" was difficult, they still had a chance to get through it, and maybe with a bit of luck, they could pass it...
This requires real strength. If you don't have the chance, then there's nothing you can do.
They all shouted desperately like crazy, "D-class personnel can't last more than three minutes, E-class personnel can't hold on for more than a minute, and F-class personnel can barely hold on for more than three seconds... Who else in the company can resist such a strong man? What else in the company can resist?"
Then there are the E-class personnel. Some of them are relatively powerful and can barely learn something from being beaten...
However, not many people can learn anything.
They're better than the F-class personnel, but not much better...
Seriously speaking, this task is most suitable for the current group of D-level personnel who are a bit sloppy.
Moreover, they also contributed the vast majority of individual purchases.
"I guess we can only make real money from this mission when everyone's strength improves. Right now, although it's not bad, it's a little lacking. Well, the official group of dual-job employees is a bit spare, and it seems that few of them are participating. What a loss."
He didn't pay too much attention to it. After ordering a takeaway, Colin took a look at the group of "pseudo-humans" as usual.
During this period, he managed to gain a foothold in the group and had a certain say.
but……
Having a say seems to be of no use.
So far, Colin has seen almost no useful information about this race in the group.
All these guys discuss all day is how to imitate humans, and they don't do anything else...
"There was no discussion of the intention to replace humans, no other extraordinary means besides replacing human corpses, and no movement to believe in any existence..."
"Tsk, there seem to be some people who believe in Buddhism, Taoism, or Jesus, but they believe in them purely for the sake of imitation..."
"Why are they all like playing a game? It's weird. They spend all day trying this and that, imitating humans. What on earth do they want to do?"
Colin couldn't help shaking his head.
After watching for so long, if I had gained something, it would not be like now with nothing.
At present, we only know that they will replace some dying humans, attach themselves to them like taking over their bodies, and take over their original daily lives. Their numbers have been steadily increasing, about one person per day...
The first questions asked by every new "pseudo-human" who joins the group are basically various daily little troubles.
Colin could clearly feel that they seemed to sincerely want to become humans, but he didn't know what prompted them to have this idea...
Then, the only thing they fear is the "extraordinary cops", fearing that they will be discovered one day and be caught and sliced into pieces...
"I think the so-called 'Mr. C' must have found this joke from some website and used it to intimidate these guys..."
As his eyes swept across the messages, Colin became more and more confused.
These days, he has roughly learned something about "Mr. C", a highly respected person in
Knowing this person seems to be the first humanoid creature to come to the human world.
They are like pioneers among them, and they have taught many "pseudo-humans" common sense of life...
But, that’s all.
"Forget it, let's just keep observing. If there really is any problem, the company will probably issue a corresponding task."
After the daily observation, Colin directly withdrew his attention.
Afterwards, seeing that there was still some time, I entered the "Self-Selected Trial Event" and played a few more games.
It was not until the second half of the night that Colin lay back on the window, waiting for the event to begin.
"The moon is so bright tonight..."
The bright and pale moonlight shone through the window. Colin turned his head to see it and couldn't help but sigh, realizing that there seemed to be a full moon tonight.
The cold light seemed to cast a hazy veil over the world...
And the moon hanging in the sky.
Colin frowned suddenly, feeling as if... he looked a little uncomfortable?
However, without waiting for him to think too much, the mission time arrived, and a transparent vortex appeared in the room. Then, a little starlight overflowed from the vortex and shone on him.
It was at this moment...
Who knows how many kilometers away, in an independent space city that can only be entered at specific times and specific places.
Thousands of followers of the "Dawn Star" knelt on the ancient altar, whipping themselves with spiked whips. Every time they prayed, they whipped themselves, their bodies were covered in blood and flesh...
The stench of blood spread throughout the town.
However, although this method seemed quite strange, it made their will more unified.
This is also their atonement for losing the "Star Girl".
"Great 'Dawn Star', I beg you to give us another chance, a chance to atone for our sins. For this, we are willing to give everything..."
A high priest said this with great fear and trepidation.
The ceremony not long ago was a complete failure. Not only did a large number of high-ranking personnel within the organization die in the battle, but even the most important vessel of the gods, the "Daughter of Starlight", was missing.
Then, the Lord’s response completely ceased shortly after the Daughter of Starlight disappeared.
If not for the blessings associated with it...
They even thought that they had been abandoned by the "Dawn Star".
No, maybe it has been abandoned.
The power nowadays may just be that the great existence is too lazy to recycle it...
The believer couldn't help feeling despair when he thought that he would never be able to experience the wonderful feeling of being penetrated by invisible tentacles again.
If that’s the case, then what’s the point of living?
However, at this moment, the desperate followers of the "Dawn Star" suddenly saw countless stars falling from the black curtain of the dome...
Then, a vague shadow of starlight quickly intertwined in the altar.
"It's the breath of the Lord!"
"Great! I knew it, I knew it, we will never be abandoned..."
"Praise the Great Will, praise the Messenger of God!"
“…”
Upon seeing this, the followers of "Dawn Star" had red eyes and their lips trembled uncontrollably.
And just as they were moved, Colin took the opportunity to turn his gaze to this place, this strange space hidden beyond reality.
The space is not very large, estimated to be less than 150,000 square meters in total, and it is pitch black beyond the edge.
The limited land is filled with various modern buildings.
"If this place were a castle or something, the atmosphere would probably be perfect, but as it is now, it lacks the sense of mystery..."
Colin made a simple comment in his mind, thinking it was a bit too urbanized.
Then, without waiting for any further thought, a high priest with a naked, bloody upper body, surrounded by starlight and emitting a faint divinity, walked up.
"I am the high priest Ramir. Excuse me, are you the new 'God's Messenger'?" the high priest asked tremblingly.
"He's not very strong. If I work hard, I can probably kill him in a few minutes. If I use a gold card, I can kill him instantly. But, is he actively giving me an identity? That's great. I don't even need to make excuses..."
Colin in the starlight projection state looked at him, nodded slowly, and said "yes".
Upon hearing this, thousands of believers burst into tears...
"Praise the great Lord, thank you for not abandoning us!" A follower happily grabbed a handful of plant leaves that had a similar effect to urticaria and rubbed them frantically on his festering scalp.
"Request the great 'God's Messenger' to severely whip us..."
Besides this, the other followers also went crazy and did all kinds of incomprehensible behaviors...
"Although I have been mentally prepared for a long time, it still feels strange when I look at it now..."
Colin couldn't help but complain in his heart. This group of guys, even among all the heretic forces, stood out from the crowd.
Of course, referring to their special behavior...
But this time, Colin noticed that when these heavy-tasting demons and monsters tortured themselves, a certain mental intensity would continue to rise...
Finally, the spiritual power of a large group of people gathered together and connected with the "starlight" on him.
However, after going crazy for more than a minute, they saw that the "God's Messenger" remained silent and did not ruthlessly ravage them with its invisible tentacles like the "Daughter of Starlight" did...
Then, one by one, as if they were suddenly poured with a basin of cold water, they all fell silent.
"Apostle of the Lord, what do we need to do?" The high priest who spoke earlier asked cautiously.
They did not doubt Colin's identity. After all, the power in his hand was the genuine old "Star of Dawn" and it could not be fake.
If they want to impersonate someone else, it is impossible unless the great being they believe in is dead.
But how is this possible?
How could the "Dawn Star" die!
You know, great existence is everlasting and immortal!
Therefore, the "messenger of God" who came with the blessing of the power of the "Star of Dawn" cannot be fake!
"I came here to do three things..."
Colin looked at the other party and said calmly: "First, collect as much intelligence as possible about other pagan forces. The last operation encountered setbacks because the intelligence work was not sufficient...
“Second, after gathering intelligence, call all believers here.
"Third, when everything is completed, our Lord will come to this world in the near future!
"Everyone here will have the opportunity to ascend, return to the side of the 'Lord' , and enjoy eternal glory!"
Hearing this, the followers in the field were stunned for a moment, and then burst into cheers again.
"We will definitely complete your request! Within seven days, we will obtain all the intelligence we can about the pagan forces..." the priest made the guarantee hastily.
After saying this, he seemed to have thought of something, and asked in a slightly lowered voice:
"Honorable God's messenger, holy Lady of Starlight, the current situation..."
It voted, and it's probably living a much more comfortable life than you... Colin's thoughts turned, his expression unchanged, and he said indifferently: "This is not something you should understand..."
As he spoke, a sense of oppression emanated from him.
Feeling the power within, the follower was suddenly horrified and quickly bowed his head to pray for atonement.
But at this moment, he heard the "God's Envoy" reply in a calm tone:
"If all goes well, the 'Master' may return from it..."
Hearing this, he was delighted and immediately praised her while promising: "Three days, just three days, we will do everything you ask!"
When he heard that the "Starlight Girl" was missing and that there were followers of "Red Moon" at the scene, he thought that the other party might have been captured by "Red Moon" and tortured severely...
Unexpectedly, based on the words of this angel of God...
At this moment, it can be said that there were unexpected turns in the situation and everything went smoothly!
Their new era is coming!
Feeling the devout faith emanating from the priest, Colin suddenly felt that if he only used them to gather some intelligence and then directly disposed of it harmlessly, the benefits would be too small.
After thinking about it, he opened his mouth and added some small requests of his own to the other party.
