Chapter 441 "The Yellow Priory"
“Ahhhhh…”
A strange and hollow sound lingered in their ears. Everyone except Colin couldn't help feeling dizzy when they heard this inexplicable and strange sound that sounded like singing and praising.
It’s like squatting for a long time and suddenly standing up. The brain is not supplied with enough blood and everything goes black.
When the blackness disappeared, everyone could see the front clearly again and couldn't help but hold their breath.
I saw that, in the entire venue, at some point, a large number of figures appeared, seemingly wrapped in a layer of gray cloth.
The strange and bizarre chanting voice that kept echoing in the empty mall came from them.
At first glance, these figures seemed to be making sounds that sounded like singing and praising, but after listening carefully, everyone vaguely heard that they were more like arguing and cursing with each other, as noisy as a vegetable market.
"What's going on, this is..." The official level six personnel shook his head vigorously, and a bunch of talisman-like carvings appeared on his body. He suppressed some inexplicable influence, and then noticed.
Those extra figures didn't seem to be targeting them.
Instead, they were scattered everywhere, arguing with each other instead of with them...
Or maybe, they didn't seem to see the people handling the incident at all.
They're like...
Are you performing some special script?
It was at this moment that the Level 6 personnel felt that a certain influence that had just been suppressed in their hearts suddenly became stronger.
He suddenly had the urge to join in the verbal fight among the group of people.
"no……!"
The level 6 personnel bit their tongue, and the intense pain stimulated them, making them much more awake.
It had only been a few seconds since the change occurred, but when he came to his senses, he found that several of his men were already shrouded in a hazy black mist. For some unknown reason, they were arguing with each other and shouting insults at each other...
"I told you! I don't eat cilantro! Why do you always ask for it every time you go out to eat together?"
“Damn it, damn it…”
"You all deserve to die! Anyone who eats cilantro deserves to die!"
“…”
A subordinate who used to be quite gentle was swearing at others with bloodshot eyes. His neck was stiff with veins exposed and his face was red from congestion.
Judging from his appearance, he even seems to be ready to fight if there is a disagreement!
"You're crazy! When the hell did you tell me you eat cilantro?! Besides, I've never heard you say you don't eat cilantro, so how do we know this?! Huh? You don't eat it and you didn't tell me, and now you're mad?!"
The other subordinate, who was stronger and had a fourth-level strength, was obviously more rational than the gentle one, but not by much...
They didn't seem to realize how ridiculous what they were arguing about was.
"You guys can start a fight over such a small fucking thing, you... are wrong!"
The Level 6 personnel's eyes flickered, and they realized something. They quickly mobilized their own strength to ensure their own state and not be contaminated by that inexplicable emotion, and then became one of the people involved in this chaos.
"The source of danger doesn't seem to be hidden at all. I can sense it right below."
He could clearly feel an inexplicable danger coming from the underground floor below the mall, which seemed to be the location of a supermarket .
I just don't know if this situation is a trap.
Compared to Colin's ability to accurately restore a certain scene, he could only have a rough intuition.
Sensing the increasingly deeper area around him, and that inexplicable, eerie atmosphere, like that on a stage.
He realized that he had to resolve the crisis as soon as possible before it broke out...
"Someone has to go with me..."
While thinking, he saw that all his men seemed to have fallen, but soon he noticed that the new team next to him, who was thought to be trying to steal the credit, did not seem to be affected too much?
this……
Are all of them above level four in combat power?
In this way, everything will be stable!
"Five personnel above level 4 who are skilled in breakout attacks, preferably the 'divine strike' type, and one level 4 'fortune teller'..."
After saying this quickly, the Level 6 personnel waited for the people to come out and then rushed down.
However, after the words fell, no one responded. Instead, everyone's eyes turned to the team leader who was leading the team and said to be a level 5 personnel.
He frowned and was about to say something, then he was visibly stunned for a moment.
It was only then that he realized something was wrong with the other team...
"Holy shit, what the fuck is going on with your team?"
The Level 6 personnel were shocked.
He determined from the vague "black lines" among this group of people that all of these twenty or so people were "fortune tellers" -
Is this the kind of team that anyone with a normal mind can put together?
Everyone is "fortune-telling", and they are all low-level "fortune-telling". Is this because the current casualty rate is not high enough?
…
If things were normal, he would definitely realize that the person who could lead such a team is definitely not an ordinary person.
But now, in a hurry, there are some interferences, and he didn't think of this.
“Bad luck!”
The level six personnel then looked at Qin Chuan, Hu Zheng, and Xia Liufang, and finally moved their gaze to look at the captain of this strange team whose soy sauce content exceeded four-fifths.
The others were affected to some extent, but this person seemed to be unaffected at all.
It even seemed like it had locked onto the abnormality just like itself.
Obviously, even if this thin team leader is not as strong as him, he should not be much inferior.
Or maybe it carries some powerful item...
No matter which one, they can assist and cooperate with him and rush down to solve the problem.
Resisting the urge to argue and join in the "scolding drama", the Level 6 personnel spoke:
"It seems you've also identified the anomaly. Now let's go down together and destroy the source of the danger..."
Hearing his direct inquiry, Colin did not respond immediately.
Instead, he half-closed his eyes, sensing the scene in his mind. After spending a few seconds deciding whether to run or fight, he retracted his gaze and looked at the Level 6 personnel standing seven or eight meters away.
"What are you going down there for?"
"Of course, I have to resolve the source of the crisis. From what I've seen so far, I've been dragged into a certain area. If I want to leave, I have to resolve the source. Otherwise, if I run away now, I'll easily become a target..."
The Level 6 personnel quickly explained, but halfway through, he suddenly realized something and frowned, "You didn't... notice the abnormality?"
If he hadn't noticed, then he would have to carefully examine whether Colin really had the power to be compared with him.
At this moment, he also realized that it was impossible to sense the strength of Colin.
"It's locked..."
Colin said casually, pulling out a high-explosive grenade from his pocket:
"But I'm not planning on going down. I'm just going to drop a bomb here and blow up the entrance. If I go down there as planned, I might step on some specially set traps, which would be risky."
Although Colin felt that the abnormality at the scene was not very strong, he still felt an inexplicable threat from the sculpture.
In this way, if the problem can be solved remotely, he will definitely not get close.
The Level 6 personnel who heard his words were stunned. For a moment, they wondered if they had heard correctly...
Blow a hole?
What are you talking about?
The ground in this kind of shopping mall is quite thick. Even if they want to blow it up, they have to deploy special directional explosives. They... did bring directional remote-controlled bombs.
However, this may be useful for blowing up walls, but it is not enough for blowing up the ground.
The key is...
Looking at the grenade Colin took out, he wondered if the other party had been contaminated to the extreme, which was why he behaved so "rationally" and stupidly.
You know, "crazy" doesn't just mean yelling and shouting without distinguishing between friend and foe...
The other party's current state is quite consistent.
However, as the high-explosive grenade was thrown by the opponent, it exploded with a clang when it landed on the ground.
What came out of the explosion was not a shock wave, but a mist-like substance that filled the sky...
“Boom!”
A flash of orange-red light suddenly erupted in front of him, almost lighting up the entire place...
Then, the exploding and expanding flames, as if controlled by something, rushed towards the ground.
The extremely solid place suddenly melted like preheated foam...
A wide hole was instantly burned out by the flames.
"What kind of fire is this? It's so exaggerated?" The level six personnel were completely stunned.
In terms of physical sensation, he didn't even feel any burning sensation, but the ground was completely melted, which was really contrary to common sense.
Even though there is such a thing as "extraordinary" in the world now.
But there are some things that have to be done more or less in accordance with the Basic Law and will not be overturned too much.
At least a level five personnel can never do this!
"Can a normal Level 5 Beyonder cause this?"
He looked at the hole in the ground that was melting rapidly and was horrified.
Which level 5 player can achieve this on his own?
He even believed it when I said it was level eight!
At this moment, he suddenly realized that there might indeed be a gap in strength between the two sides, but the gap might be the other way around.
But, I can't take care of this...
Just as the flames were rapidly melting the ground and burning out a passage about five or six meters wide, he finally saw that underneath, there was an ancient stage built of mahogany that was completely out of tune with modern things.
There are also many lanterns hanging on the stage, full of ancient charm.
Behind the stage, a statue in a yellow robe was placed there, staring blankly at the quarreling figures on the stage...
"This is the source of the anomaly!"
Level 6 officials immediately confirmed this.
He immediately threw out a handful of talismans, which burned in the air and then turned into lightning bolts that struck that direction.
However, halfway through, the lightning disappeared.
And, just as he was looking directly at the yellow-robed statue and launching his attack, his eyes suddenly bulged, his vision blurred, and a feeling of nausea surged in his stomach...
At this moment, the sculpture in my eyes inexplicably became real, especially the lower end of its yellow robe.
Those tentacle-like textures engraved on them began to wriggle...
All the people who were "arguing" around them stopped arguing, twisted their necks and looked at them. Their gazes were particularly heavy and depressing, making people feel breathless.
The next moment, they all rushed over as if driven by some kind of will!
"Why do you put cilantro in your food?! Why do you put cilantro in your food?!"
"Die, monster! It's all because of you that my daughter has become a vegetable..."
"Why are you talking so loudly?!"
“…”
Amidst growling curses, more than a hundred figures attacked. The Level 6 personnel even saw the Level 5 personnel originally stationed here and some of their subordinates with extraordinary abilities.
Behind these people, there seemed to be a strange thread connecting to the sculpture in the yellow robe.
"Has this been turned into a flesh and blood puppet?"
He wanted to take ruthless action, but he was worried that these people might die.
At the same time, he glanced sideways, wanting to see what the "level five personnel" whose strength was obviously abnormal was going to do.
Then he saw the other person rummaging in his pocket with his right hand, pulling out a transparent, fiery red object that looked like an eyeball. He pinched the upper and lower sides of the object, placed it against his left eye socket, and pressed hard.
"Pah."
The Level 6 officer's eye twitched as he saw a ball of burning flame emerging from the other person's left eye socket.
The entire left eye seemed to be on fire.
At this moment, Colin didn't know what the level six personnel was thinking. He silently rolled his eyes, ignoring the various puppets that were attacking him, and looked directly at the sculpture. Then, he smiled slightly and silently said:
"General."
"boom!"
In an instant.
From a considerable distance away, the yellow sculpture on the stage exploded instantly like a gas tank.
Strange screams immediately echoed in all directions.
It was at this time that Colin saw that the sculpture seemed to want to absorb the vitality of others by controlling the puppet's silk threads in order to maintain its own order, or directly start the second stage.
But unfortunately...
It is nothing more than a sculpture with a high status, but its actual ability is not as strong as that of a third-level containment object.
Colin burned it to the last drop of blood.
Then he raised his hand and fired a 155 caliber enchanted bullet.
With a "bang", the sculpture exploded and shattered into burning fragments all over the sky.
Here everything begins to recover.
As the sculpture was destroyed, all the controlled "puppets" fell to the ground, their lives or deaths unknown.
"Is this...solved?" The level six personnel found it hard to believe and felt it was unrealistic.
This... He recalled his previous thoughts.
Suddenly, I felt a little guilty...
Colin raised his hand and snapped his fingers. The next moment, flames started burning on all the people who fell to the ground.
Then, without waiting for questions, he spoke directly:
"This flame will last for about thirty minutes, slowly burning away the pollution in their bodies and maintaining their condition for a limited time.
"Once the flames are out, it's best to provide immediate rescue to avoid unnecessary deaths."
"I understand..." The Level 6 personnel nodded quickly.
"Also, do you know anything about this anomaly here?"
Colin spoke with a serious tone, recalling some things he had accidentally seen when he killed the statue in seconds.
At that moment, he sensed through the sculpture that somewhere across an infinite distance, an extremely terrifying being seemed to be looking at this place from afar...
And nearby, there are all kinds of densely packed and terrifying shadows roaming in the empty universe, which are heart-pounding and terrifying.
Each one is incredibly powerful...
Just a brief moment of observation gave him an inexplicable sense of impending death.
Fortunately, Kelin decisively cut off all contact from his heart, not daring to look even once more...
Otherwise, this feeling of impending death might become real.
"How much of a damn thing has Bonfire Company provoked?"
Colin suspected that these were most likely the "outsiders" that Duo Jin had mentioned.
Hearing his words, the sixth-level official shook his head, saying that he didn't know and it was his first time encountering such a thing.
However, Xia Liufang suddenly came up and said, "...If nothing unexpected happens, that thing just now should be a member of the Yellow Priory. They... are quite secretive and worship a very dangerous existence. But I don't know the details. I only heard about it from people in my family. I'm not qualified to know."
"The Yellow Priory?"
Colin nodded, took note of the name, and planned to ask Mr. Xuanjin or Mr. Wu later.
After that, I didn’t stay here for too long.
He took his team and walked around the area. After making sure that they didn't see anything else, they didn't stay any longer.
The entire incident process, from the moment we entered the door, took less than ten minutes.
Basically push the whole way...
Afterwards, he left after the task was completed to fight the next battle.
