Chapter 449: The Passionate Little Mermaid "Tina"
Many thoughts flashed through the minds of many people...
But in the end, he shook his head, looked at Colin and said:
"I can't give a definite answer on this matter. I will report this to my superiors. So, besides this, is there anything else?"
"Yes, the next trading time..."
After Colin finished this, he had a brief conversation with her and then left the room with a lot of money.
As to whether or not to implement this suggestion, he has said everything that needs to be said.
The rest depends on what the official chooses.
"The domestic part will most likely follow this process. After all, Mr. Wu and I have a close relationship, so he will most likely promote this project of building ships and floating islands..."
"As for the outside world, it's not so certain. The opinions of international officials are so mixed and chaotic that there's no consensus."
Thinking about the future, Colin couldn't help shaking his head.
The biggest problem right now is the lack of resource allocation. Some want to flee, some want to stay, and some are leading the way. Each of these groups has many different directions. For example, those who want to flee are heading to different locations and are vying for as much resources as possible.
It seems to be a whole on the surface, but in fact it is a mess.
Everyone is trying to get as many resources as possible for their own plans.
This suddenly led to a demand for building deep-water structures, large artificial floating islands, ships, and so on.
Just thinking about it, Colin felt that it would be even more powerful.
The only thing we can pray for now is that a perfect solution will appear in the future.
For example, if a truly Earth-born executive of a certain company took action and took the entire Earth and even the solar system with them, and during this period, they could even use extraordinary means to ensure that the Earth's ecology was not affected, and come up with a plan to wander the universe, then there is a high probability that everything would be solved...
pity……
Just think about this kind of thing.
Colin shook his head, putting all these random things out of his mind.
Once a disaster breaks out in the future, no one will be able to stay out of it.
Even a strong company like Bonfire has become like this...
He also needs to improve himself as soon as possible.
"Next, the next 'Advent Project' will be in 'World Number 4' instead of 13. Um, I'll tell those dozens of people about this later, lest they miss me and think I'm dead, and try to draw a lottery for my inheritance..."
"Well, as for supplies, we still have some left over from last time. If we save a little and eat them, it should be enough to last for a while. If things really don't work out, we can use the few props selected from the official website to make a small batch of potatoes or something for emergency use."
"It's just that the forced-ripening ones don't taste that good, but they don't seem to care about that. As long as they have something to eat, they're fine..."
"Alas, World 13 still has a long way to go before it can become self-sufficient in food..."
Colin leaned against the sofa, thought for a moment, took out the parchment, and contacted the "arsonist" and others.
These people seem to be living quite well at the moment.
Nowadays, although the "Advent Project" is still high-risk because of him, it would be a different matter if the place of advent was the world numbered "13" or "4".
As long as the "Advent Project" resolves the initial wave of disasters that are currently underway and initially establishes a firm foothold, its safety will be greatly improved, and there will be no need to worry about sudden deaths at any time...
Of course, it wasn’t solved, or the solution wasn’t thorough enough…
Then we can only pray for good luck.
"But there's one thing I'm still unclear about. I wonder if the people who failed in the previous 'Advent Project' were executing it in World 13 or World 4..."
Colin thought about it in confusion. There were already two numbered worlds, and there was no mention of looking for their bodies or anything like that.
One is that they may have gone to some unknown area, so they can't be found...
Some "advent projects," such as "Starship," appear in space.
If an ordinary person went there, even if they were at D level, they would probably die before even encountering any monsters...
In addition, if it is not another area, then it may be a relatively clean death.
I can't find that kind of thing anymore...
"From the 'Advent Project' before me, we know for sure that there are only three or four employees who completed the first stage, returned briefly, and disappeared during the second stage. As for those... I don't know if they're actually dead or not. There's a chance they didn't die, but because the conditions weren't met, Bonfire Company lost contact, and they couldn't return, so they're still surviving."
"Of course, it's also possible that it was sent."
If he hadn't died, Colin suspected that one day one of his employees might return from another world as some great emperor...
That would be a lot of fun.
Without thinking too much, the people on the parchment, such as "Arsonist-Taotie" and "Treading the Waves to Find Pigs", responded immediately.
They looked very excited - Brother Shunzi was finally willing to go to "World No. 4"!
If they don't go now, even if they don't die in the mission, they will be killed by Tina's noise.
Although the two sides were able to communicate due to the successful connection of the bonfire, making a "phone call" was obviously not as good as actually meeting in person, and Brother Shunzi's calls ended within half an hour each time.
And the remaining time is the time for them to suffer...
If they weren't really unable to beat Brother Shunzi, they really wanted to knock him unconscious with a hammer, tie him up, and throw him into the Little Mermaid Tina's room to pawn him...
…
Colin didn't know why some people held such strong grudges against him. He briefly communicated with these employees about the situation and felt somewhat relieved when he learned that the situation there was relatively stable.
"From the current perspective, there should be no problem..."
Colin touched his chin. He vaguely remembered that there was no conflict with the advanced life forms in "World No. 4".
The previous conflict was because they went there to recycle things and were mistakenly thought to be coming to destroy the world.
That's why a bunch of inherently evil gods are desperately trying every possible way to stop them from launching the "Extermination Order" and destroying "World Number-4"...
But now, we know they are not here to destroy the world.
Then there really is no conflict between the two sides...
Although they still dislike each other, they keep to themselves.
"Looking at it this way, there really won't be any accidents. We can start thinking about what's next."
Colin turned to think about what would happen after he came back, and one thing was certain.
When I come back in two days, I'll be able to use the third dose of D-level gene compensation potion...
Then comes the promotion qualification task...
"The first one is the Ten Rings Quick Random Mission, which isn't very difficult. Then there's the 'Happy Farm Seven Days Tour'."
Colin frowned, seemingly not seeing any response from "Ms. Rabbit" in the letter...
Is this... assuming that he can pass it by then, or is it that we won't tell him anything until the time comes?
After more than half an hour, Colin hadn't figured out anything, so he stopped thinking. Seeing that it was late at night, he first sent a message to Qin Chuan and others, asking them to prepare some necessary items, and then turned around and went back to sleep.
…
Time passed quickly, and when it was twelve o'clock , Colin heard the distant and ancient bell on time.
Then, thick fog engulfed the front...
After an unintentional trance.
Everything began to recede again.
Colin shook his head, and before he opened his eyes, he suddenly felt an indescribable sense of deep-sea oppression.
"It seems that as my strength grows, the sense of oppression also grows stronger?"
When I opened my eyes, I saw the interior of a hall engulfed in flames.
These flames did not give people a feeling of suffocation or burning, but instead gave people an indescribable warmth.
"Are you there? Are you there? When will the Bonfire Agent come...ah!"
The female voice, which was a bit childish, was halfway through greeting when it suddenly turned into a piercing scream like a dolphin.
As soon as Colin turned around, he saw a little beauty weighing less than one ton, flying towards him excitedly and hugging him in her arms!
I haven't seen her for a while, and little Tina seems to have grown a lot, and her body is obviously bigger.
"Mr. Bonfire, you finally came to see me!"
After holding Colin and sucking him hard like a kitten, little Tina coiled up her long lower body like a sea snake, straightened her upper body, held Colin in her hands, and lifted him up like a doll.
The crystal clear eyes stared at him, as if sparkling...
“Hmm…” Colin was at a loss for what to do for a moment and could only smile awkwardly and nod.
The atmosphere has become so tense, you can't just say you're here just to complete a mission, right?
Meanwhile, when the foursome first saw Tina, their eyelids twitched subconsciously, and they almost had a stress reaction. However, when they saw Brother Shunzi finally appear, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that this mission can finally be put to rest.
"Mr. Bonfire, I've caught a lot of delicious sea fish and sea vegetables recently. I'll take you to eat them..." Little Tina muttered, but she was interrupted by a majestic female voice before she was halfway through.
"Tina!"
The figure of the Queen of the Sea Siren appeared in the hall. She looked very similar to Tina, equally delicate and beautiful, but more mature. At this moment, she looked serious as she stared at her little daughter:
"Put Mr. Bonfire down now! He has no time for you."
"Oh, okay..."
As one of the people Tina feared the most, the Queen's words were obviously effective. After Colin's feet had been off the ground for a few minutes, they finally touched the ground again.
While raising his hand to wipe away the saliva that Tina had kissed on the side of her cheek in joy, Colin looked at the queen and the guards around her who were coming towards him like a snake:
"Your Majesty, good afternoon..."
"Well, hello... I apologize to you on behalf of Tina for her rude behavior..." The Queen of the Sea Siren bowed her head slightly to express her apology, and the blue crystal earrings on her ears swayed gently, flashing a dazzling brilliance.
"fine."
Colin waved his hand and glanced at Tina, who looked like a child who had done something wrong. "It's okay. I do have a mission, but it's not urgent. I can take a walk here. I haven't seen Tina for so many days, and I miss her..."
Hearing his words, Tina's eyes lit up. She didn't doubt the truth of his words at all, and her fish tail wagged happily.
The Queen of the Sea Siren glared at her youngest daughter, and first invited Colin and others to move to a place more suitable for conversation.
Then the queen twisted her lower body like a sea snake, followed Colin, and said, "You came here suddenly this time. I think there must be some other reason. Is there anything we can help you with?"
Although the Bonfire agents are outsiders in some sense...
But because of the rising of the "bonfire", the hidden danger of the loss of "humanity" that had been plaguing them was eliminated, and Colin's status in the "Sea Siren" was only higher than that of her, the queen.
If you need anything, they will do their best to help...
"It's not urgent, but...it's possible..."
As Colin spoke, he recalled the requirements of the task from his mind.
[Event 1: Before returning from this event, go to the Emperor-class deep-sea battleship "King of the Deep Sea Giants" and participate in and complete the signing of the "Dark Deep Sea Treaty."]
[Note: Don't do anything that provokes them too much...]
…
"Tsk tsk, the name of this deep-sea battleship is quite impressive, 'King of the Deep Sea Giants'..."
"And then, the 'Dark Sea Treaty'? I don't know what it's about..."
"However, please be careful not to provoke them... Are you referring to the high-level containment objects still in 'World Number' 4?"
As the thought flashed through his mind, Colin looked at the Queen and said, "Do you know about the 'King of the Deep Sea Giants'?"
"Yes, it's one of the three most powerful structures . It's massive, and I heard there are millions of people stationed on it..."
The Queen of the Sea Siren said, "However, as far as we know, this thing was not built by them themselves, but was discovered from some ancient ruins..."
A warship that can accommodate millions of people?
Colin felt that the description and the word didn't seem to fit, and he became a little curious about how big this thing was and how it could hold so many people.
Of course, he could guess with his imagination that this thing should be the creation of the "Bonfire Company".
After briefly introducing the battleship to Colin, the Queen curiously inquired, "Mr. Bonfire, do you have any thoughts on that thing? Do you intend to... recycle it?"
They probably had some guesses about the origins of the "Campfire."
Knowing these people, they are probably the owners of those ancient ruins.
Just like the Sea Siren's race holy land, that is, the underwater floating island where they currently reside, it is very likely that it was built by them, not the Sea Siren race -
Otherwise, the Queen of the Sea Siren racked her brains and couldn't figure out why, given their body structure, there were so many steps for no reason? They always bumped their tails when climbing them...
Wouldn't it be much more convenient to swim in a water-filled corridor than these steps?
"No, once the things are in their hands, they belong to me. I'm just going there to do some things."
Colin didn't hide anything and simply explained what he was going to do.
"Then, can you take me with you?" Before the queen could speak, Tina on the side spoke first, her face full of anticipation.
"If the Queen doesn't mind, that's fine."
Kelin passed the question to her mother.
The queen did not object to this. After instructing them to follow her obediently and not make any trouble, she agreed to the request.
Then, just as she was about to ask people to prepare some deep-water ships and lead the troops to the deep-water warship, she saw a subordinate of the Sea Siren hurriedly twisting her snake tail towards her.
The subordinate wanted to say something, but when he noticed Colin and others, he swallowed the words back.
"Tell me, Mr. Bonfire is not an outsider..."
Hearing the name Mr. Bonfire, the sea witch widened her eyes and looked at Colin twice in surprise.
She had heard so many times how Mr. Bonfire saved the race, but this was the first time she had seen it up close...
However, without thinking too much, she said:
"...We just received a message that the Pseudo-Human Federation's 'Deep Sea Giant King' battleship is approaching here and has sent us a request to enter within a hundred nautical miles of the Holy Land..."
