Chapter 469 The mantis stalks the cicada...
Inside the chapel.
"Hmm...ha."
He drank half a bottle of Coke in one gulp.
Colin was in a good mood and continued to sit in his chair. He raised his head and looked at the light and shadow screen to feel the real-time situation in front of him.
"Shall we do this..." Shana also held a bottle of happy water in her hand.
Unlike Kelin, she didn't drink much, but she felt a bit guilty...
While everyone was fighting tirelessly in the front, the two of them were eating and making random comments in the back - doesn't it seem inappropriate?
"Don't worry, it's okay. They have resurrection abilities and their strength is not weak. They will just have some close calls along the way, and nothing serious will happen."
Colin waved his hand, indicating that it was not a big problem.
"Tsk, come to think of it, I didn't expect this 'King of Mad Sound' to reveal its true nature before I immediately made it aware of my presence. It only became obedient after I remotely revealed even a hint of my presence. Sure enough, this guy's personality is a bit unbearable."
"Also, Cornetto's skill level is a bit low. He only reacted after being forced to use 'Fatal Insight' on an elite monster..."
"You should practice more."
Colin was watching the show while fully utilizing his hidden strengths as a fountain conductor and gave a general evaluation from a distance.
However, although the reviews are average.
But the employees have no problem dealing with some common situations.
Then they slaughtered again in the small village where all the villagers' bodies had been massacred and mutated.
The employees have already fought their way out of the small village and are heading towards their target. Along the way, all the life forms they encounter have basically undergone mutations, with a very strong desire to eat and extremely blasphemous appearances.
But overall, they are all ordinary life mutations and the threat is not very big.
However, their actions, no matter how covert they were, would undoubtedly be detected by the Devouring Feast.
These believers looked very surprised, and seemed unaware that someone dared to attack them from behind.
You know, the orthodox kingdom knights dare not go deep into this place because of the divine aura...
Why are these people so bold?
"Stop them and eat them!"
"Leave your brain to me! I want to eat it and see what gave them the courage to step into this place!"
"Eat it! Eat it! Eat it!"
“…”
A group of believers of the "Swallowing Feast" rushed forward.
A blue-black aura emanated from their bodies , and they were able to directly digest everything around them. As long as they moved, they were like a mouth that was chewing all the time.
"Unfortunately, it's still a little bit lacking in terms of dealing with employees, not to mention the natural suppression of the 'company'."
Colin took a sip of his Coke.
So far, everything seems to be going smoothly for the employees except that they were exposed and blocked.
Of course, this idea has changed as employees get deeper into the field.
As he watched, he suddenly felt like something was not right?
"Strength, it seems a bit weak?"
Colin raised his eyebrows. He expected that "Hunger" would show up directly.
In this case, as long as there is no strong person of his level, there should be no problem.
Current intelligence also indicates that the other party does not exist at this level.
As for "hunger", it has many limitations, and the previous operation to encircle Shana failed, so it is impossible to do so without paying any price.
So there should be no dangers along the way, but isn’t the progress of the employees now a little too smooth?
It went smoothly all the way without any accidents.
However, just as Colin was wondering, he suddenly felt a palpitation in his heart.
It was at this moment that the light screen projection in front of him suddenly flickered like snowflakes.
“Wow…”
Colin threw away the snacks in his hand and flames burst out on his body.
At the same time, the entire image on the screen began to distort, as if connecting to an unknown area. In this area, an endless blue-black haze spread...
A terrifying figure sits in the depths.
Its eighteen arms twisted softly, and its thousands of mouths made hungry chewing sounds...
The sound of countless iron chains rang out like an accompaniment...
However, just as the image was rapidly zoomed in and even formed a kind of passage, Shana reached out and grabbed it, and the light screen projection exploded, turning into debris on the ground.
Then, strong white light and bonfire covered the area at the same time, driving away every breath that might escape.
After a few minutes, everything slowly calmed down...
"Is that 'hunger'? It's indeed a dangerous thing." Shana retracted the bright light.
"Indeed, but it seems to be in a restricted state..."
Colin recalled the scene just now.
Countless chains, which look like iron chains but are actually made of unknown materials, restrict this existence tightly.
At least he was restricted much more miserably than the one who tried to devour the source of "beastiality".
Of course, this fragment may not be larger, but it is more complete.
"Luckily, I didn't go over there this time. Given the Fire Bearer's characteristics, I wouldn't have been able to hide if I had gone over there. I'd probably have been dragged away for a face-to-face confrontation."
"Even if we win, we will have to pay a high price."
"On the contrary, the D-class personnel are neither strong nor weak, and they can just do their work under their noses..."
Colin suddenly realized why the boss couldn't appear immediately for some things.
No one is paying attention to my subordinates, so I can do a lot of things secretly...
His appearance, like a light bulb, is likely to cause a huge fight.
However, at this moment, Colin suddenly turned his head and looked outside, vaguely aware of something.
…
And at the same time.
"Why doesn't it feel right?"
"Life mentor Keaiduo" raised his hand, holding a scroll of mountains and rivers, and swung it in a circle, smashing a heretic into minced meat all over the ground.
They had broken through to their destination and had begun to light a bonfire.
"What's wrong?" Team Leader No. 2 asked in confusion.
"Isn't everything going well now?" an employee responded in the team box.
This time, without waiting for an answer from Cornetto, Team Leader No. 5 said, "It's because it's going so smoothly that something's not right. No heavyweights have appeared so far."
According to initial estimates, they would encounter at least three powerful "God's Favored Ones" along the way.
Keaiduo and others have also made preparations for resurrection and reading the bar.
But……
So far, they have all reached the target area of the mission and started the final step, but let alone the three "God-favored Ones", they haven't even seen one.
It can even be said that there are very few heretics with sufficient strength.
Where did this group of people go?
"Life mentor Keaiduo" felt a little uneasy as he looked at the blue-black haze wriggling in all directions and the small fish that kept attacking him.
At this time...
A warm current suddenly ignited from behind.
"The bonfire was successfully lit!"
Some employees shouted excitedly, but before Cornetto could relax, they started to feel a bit down.
Lines of subtitles appeared in their eyes.
[“Coordinates” have been arranged, target search in progress…]
【Report, target lost.】
[Target lost...]
[Report materials review rejected...]
"Run away?" "Life mentor Keaiduo" was stunned.
He looked around and suddenly realized something. He hurriedly tried to contact Brother Shunzi, but no one responded to his message.
…
On the other side, outside the territory where Colin was.
"Master Eater, that's it!"
A short man emerged from the wasteland and pointed ahead.
I saw that among the mountains, there was a huge white shield upside down on the ground.
"Very good, as long as we can destroy that flame, everything will be fine!"
In the team of more than ten people, a man wearing red clothes, with his left chest exposed and a vertical mouth on his abdomen spoke.
Strangely, he spoke without opening his mouth; the sound came from his abdomen.
"The power of the Bonfire is only possessed by the Bonfire's Divine Envoy and the Saintess of the Light Cult. No one else can..."
"Now, in order to deal with my Lord, these two will definitely go to the Black Mountains in person and attempt a blasphemous act..."
"They certainly didn't expect that we would come here on our own initiative."
"By the time they realized what was happening, we had already successfully destroyed the bonfire, completely putting an end to their delusions..."
"As for the dozens of people in the territory, although they are quite powerful, they are not able to fight against us as a whole..."
"Before destroying the bonfire, avoid eating anything. Don't waste your time on those ordinary blood-based foods..."
"Completely destroy the bonfire within thirty minutes!"
The big mouth of the man in red that stood upright on his abdomen moved, and he uttered a low whisper like reciting scriptures.
"So, what happens after we destroy the bonfire?" asked a member.
"If you don't want to die, leave immediately. When everything calms down and my Lord awakens from his slumber, the world will be filled with delicious food..."
Although it has not been achieved yet, it does not prevent them from discussing the beautiful world of the future.
As soon as they finished speaking, they took action and moved quickly forward.
Each of them seemed to be just walking forward normally, but strangely, they could cover hundreds or even thousands of meters with one step.
When they were less than a hundred meters away from the huge light shield, several members of the "Devouring Festival" opened their mouths wide and took a bite forward like a flying fish.
With their strength, they can easily bite through even fine steel, and it will melt in their mouths...
However, when the teeth bit the light film, only ripples appeared, without any signs of damage.
"I'll do it..."
The man in red stood in front of the shield, whispered, and opened his abdomen to both sides, spewing out a sour and extremely thick blue-black haze, which hit the white light and digested it directly.
A large number of ripples spread out...
Then he stretched out a dark blue arm, stretched it forward, and slapped the shield at an extremely fast speed.
“Ka-ka-ka…”
In the palm of his hand, a mouth opened and bit the illusory light, tearing off a piece and swallowing it into his mouth.
At the same moment...
A small crack appeared in the reticle.
The man in red was about to look through the crack, observe the situation inside, and inject digestive fluid into it to further open the gap.
However, before he could do so, he discovered that there was an eye looking at him from behind the cave entrance.
"?"
In a moment of doubt, he suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis.
But before I could react...
His entire body felt like it was exploding like gasoline, and every nerve in his body felt excruciating pain from the high heat.
The skin and some fat all over the body were melted and ignited almost instantly...
“Ahhhhhh!”
The man in red endured the severe pain, sucked in his abdomen with his big mouth, and forcefully swallowed the flames on his body.
This is how I managed to catch my breath...
“Pah pah pah…”
In the territory, Kelin watched this scene and clapped his hands. "Amazing! You can actually swallow this fire by force. If it were an ordinary person, they would probably be burned to ashes..."
"Who are you? No, you... you are that divine messenger?! Why are you still here?! How can you still be here?!"
The man in red suddenly thought of something and then looked incredulous.
This kind of power can only come from the Bonfire God, no one else!
If this is the case, the current situation is completely different from what he originally expected.
He originally thought that at most they would have to face a Saint of the "Light" Church. Although they might not win, their goal was not to win, but to destroy the "bonfire".
They were not afraid of the Holy Maiden of the Light Church, but they were naturally afraid of this messenger of God.
Fear of the terrifying flames filled with the desire for destruction within him...
But……
For such an important matter for the Lord, shouldn't he go there in person? Why is he still in the territory?
Could it be that they had already seen through his plan?
At this moment, seeing a glowing figure standing not far away, he became even more certain of this—
These guys have already seen through my plan!
"Now that you've been seen through, there's nothing we can do. Follow me in!"
The man in red opened his mouth wide, spewing out a massive amount of dense, dark blue mist. This mist didn't dissipate, but enveloped him, transforming him into a dark blue sculpture with eighteen arms...
A terrifying pressure swept over the place.
Inside the territory, a group of refugees huddled together, trembling...
"I didn't expect that when I wanted to take a break, I bumped into Big Head..."
Hearing the other party's shouting, Colin immediately understood that the reason why the employees in the previous light screen projection were so smooth was because this group of "Swallowing Feast" cultists wanted to use a tactic to change their home.
"It's a good idea, but unfortunately, I'm unlucky."
"Fire!"
Colin raised his arm and called out, and the huge bonfire a hundred meters high in the territory gathered together as if summoned.
The dense flames collided with the dark blue shadow cast by the heretic in front...
Moreover, this collision did not last long, and the bonfire was already in a one-sided suppression state.
“Damn it!”
The man in red cursed inwardly. If it were any other heretics, then in this collision, even if they were evenly matched, their strength would be quickly absorbed by them, and the strength would be quickly weakened by the loss of strength.
However, there was no way to swallow Bonfire. Even if I forced myself to swallow it, I couldn't digest it. It was pure junk food...
"You guys, give me a hand!"
He suddenly stretched out his arms and grabbed his companion, his palm and mouth rapidly opening wide in the process.
He ate everyone in one go.
The believers did not struggle at all during this process.
As long as they can contribute to the Big Eater, they are willing to do so!
"Go, if you can, touch it..."
The red-clothed man who was fighting with Colin suddenly changed direction, withstanding Colin's fatal blow, and turned towards the bonfire of the chapel. His abdomen bulged, and then with a "puff" sound, a blue-black finger suddenly spurted out.
"Fragments of the Primarch?"
Colin's eyes narrowed slightly as he saw the finger shooting towards the campfire at an extremely fast speed.
The light shield that the believers had previously found difficult to penetrate was now as easy as a piece of paper.
He subconsciously turned around and wanted to intercept.
Seeing the flaw revealed by turning around, the man in red suddenly revealed an imperceptible strange smile at the corner of his mouth.
At the same time, Colin felt a numbness on the back of his head, and he suddenly felt that an even more terrifying aura was locking onto him from behind.
An image emerged in his mind. In the gaping mouth of the man behind him, a terrifying will cast its gaze towards him...
"No, this isn't a misunderstanding. Their target... is me?"
Colin suddenly became alert and turned around immediately, his eyes suddenly frozen.
The believers of the "Swallowing Feast" may really not have thought that he was still in the territory, but "hunger" was different!
From within the gaping hole in the abdomen, a large, dark blue hand, missing a finger and emitting a powerful aura, stretched out...
The space was frozen, unable to move, and Colin could only watch as the hand slowly grabbed him.
However, at the moment of being caught...
A shrill siren suddenly sounded in the area, and red and blue colors flashed alternately at an extremely fast frequency.
