Chapter 197: Chapter 197 Equipnt Fusion Upgrade_1
“Ugh.”
Colin and the others didn’t say anything, falling silent for a mont, not knowing what to say—
Big sister, isn’t your acting a bit much? Do you really think our brains are just for show?
Though that was what he thought, Colin wasn’t entirely sure if the other party was “seriously injured,” because the acting was very realistic. Moreover, what was strange was that he couldn’t determine the other party’s physical condition through scent or anything like that.
The only thing he was sure of was that, despite the person coughing up blood severely, there wasn’t the kind of aura that indicated they were on the verge of death.
“Sorry, cough cough, I’ve suffered so injuries. I am a nun from the ‘Church of Light,’ Vanessa. We have just escaped from a disaster…”
Vanessa looked apologetically at everyone, introducing herself while coughing.
After a pause, she asked with a weak and tentative tone, “What are you… here for?”
She looked so frail and vulnerable, as if she might faint at any mont, and as if she were telling any potential enemy: I am almost done for; if you want to make a move, now is the best ti. I’m coughing up blood, I can’t stand anymore, co on out…
“Don’t worry, we an no harm; we’re just looking for soone.”
As Colin spoke, his gaze shifted past her to other refugees who had drawn near, seemingly confused about what was happening here.
Vanessa’s figure shifted slightly, blocking Colin’s line of sight to those innocent bystanders.
Standing in this position, she could ensure that if Colin suddenly attacked those ordinary people, she could block him without delay.
“Who are you looking for?”
“Miss Thaiveil in that room.”
“She… she… I’m very sorry. Although Miss Thaiveil’s body still has so vitality, her soul, in fact, disappeared a long ti ago… Ah??”
Vanessa, the nun, was about to say this when she suddenly saw from the door, a person who was supposed to be dead, walking out—
It was Miss Thaiveil!
And no sooner had she co out than she started walking toward that unfamiliar man…
The next second, Vanessa clenched her fist, her eyes swept uncertainly over these people.
“A living corpse? A mutation? Doesn’t seem like it; she must have co back to life, but how co her wounds are gone? No, that’s not right. Is she possessed? That’s not right either; her soul feels the sa as when I first t her…”
Vanessa was utterly befuddled. What puzzled her the most was that she didn’t feel even the slightest hint of an evil spirit from the other person nor did she feel much negative emotion. If it hadn’t been for her clear knowledge of Miss Thaiveil’s condition, she might not have noticed anything was off…
“Right, Miss Thaiveil was acting strange before she fainted…”
Vanessa seed to rember sothing. Contrary to what those servants had said, Miss Thaiveil, although injured, hadn’t sustained mostly lethal wounds. Vanessa had indeed blocked the attack at the ti, but even under those circumstances, Miss Thaiveil had suddenly passed out and remained unconscious until recently.
She had been wondering what kind of attack could cause Miss Thaiveil’s soul to disappear instantly and then return just as suddenly?
Now, what was the best course of action?
At this very mont, it was the first ti she had encountered such a situation, and she didn’t know how to respond.
On one side, seeing the awkward atmosphere, the Warden’s nephew suddenly stepped forward and said, “I am an apprentice Virtue Knight from the ‘Virtue Knight Order’ of The Kingdom of Knights. There’s a town nearby that the ‘Bonfire Church’ is establishing, distributing food and dicine. If you don’t mind, you can co over…
“After all, I think your kindness would not allow those ordinary people to continue to endure hunger and the tornt of illness.”
“I, I need to think it over…” Vanessa looked at his badge, neither agreeing nor denying.
She was not clear about who these people were and what their intentions might be; her thoughts were a bit slow to catch up.
However, Colin didn’t continue to talk to her. After he finished speaking, he left with Lin Yilan, who on the surface was “Miss Thaiveil” but in actuality was a G Level temporary employee.
“Do you now have the mories of this body?” Colin asked curiously, turning his head.
“Mhm.”
Lin Yilan nodded, with fragnts of the body’s mories surfacing in her mind. She knew she was the daughter of a wealthy rchant out on an excursion when she encountered a monster attack known as the “Magic Fog”, in which she died.
And then, her arrival…
“I have been to this world before, but it wasn’t long before I suddenly returned to reality. Then the hospital was suddenly put under lockdown, many people started to go insane, but later on, so individuals ca and dealt with the issue…”
“Moreover, it seems like they wiped the ordinary people’s mories, and everyone except
forgot what happened at that ti.”
Lin Yilan explained what had happened then.
This roughly matched the intelligence Colin had obtained later on.
“Those details aren’t important, but do you have the ability to treat the locals now?” Colin rembered that Lin Yilan’s dical expertise was high, seeming to specialize in surgery, but he wasn’t clear on the specifics.
“I can.”
Seeing her nod, Colin assigned her a task to treat the injuries of the refugees.
As for the matter of her body’s original identity, that was temporarily put aside. The most important thing now was to settle the refugees and heal their various illnesses.
Not long after, when everyone returned to the dead city, they saw that the forrly deserted town now had the presence of many living people.
Disaster victims in various red garnts were lined up in an orderly manner under the arrangents of Li Ming and others to receive food—
Five loaves and two parcels, along with a bowl of concentrated syrup diluted in water, enriched with various ingredients.
After arriving, Colin took Lin Yilan to et the others, retrieved the “Ring of Fla Dominance”, and handed over so company items like “batteries that make one glow” to them. He let them take free rein before assuming the role of an absentee landlord and entering the church alone.
Colin clearly wasn’t as savvy as Tang Ken in the managent of ordinary people, so he didn’t plan to ddle needlessly.
Entering the church, Colin approached the massive Bonfire, taking out two items: a revolver and a bracelet.
[Enchantnt conditions are t. Start fusion?]
“This better not downgrade my equipnt,” Colin grumbled. But then, thinking it through, even though the revolver was considered orange-quality gear, it was actually useless and already at rock bottom. It didn’t seem like it could get any worse, so he opted to start the fusion…
Then, he saw no changes in the items in his hand.
While puzzled, a flash of insight struck him, and he realized sothing, tossing both items into the Bonfire.
Soon, he watched as the red bracelet was set ablaze, lted, and wrapped around the revolver. It then seeped into the tal of the revolver, filling the cracks with a lava-like fiery substance.
A scorching breath ca at him…
In no ti, the Bonfire swelled and spat out the enchanted revolver like a seed.
Colin picked up the revolver that landed at his feet, brought up the “Revolver Contrarian” properties, and saw two new skills added besides “Iai Slash (Arican Style)”, “Adaptive Aiming”, and “Air Compression Bullet”.
[Exclusive Skill “Fiery Embrace”: When wielding this gun, the user can manipulate flas within a 30-ter radius at will. All bullets fired carry fla attack properties and have a certain suppressive effect on anomalies. Furthermore, when Fiery Bullets hit the sa target 33 tis, a “Lethal (causing massive damage)” effect will be triggered.]
“Precondition for Use: The user must have a preliminary sense or a certain ‘Firebearer’ aura; otherwise, they will suffer significant negative effects.”
“Note: No matter how strong, what does it matter? Watch as I down you with 33 bullets!!!”
