Chapter 214: Chapter 214: Major Changes in “Destiny”._1
“This, this strong?”
Xia Liufang’s eyes sparkled with shock; she had once fought a monster nearly like this one and knew how tough its fish scale armor was—it was a terrifying creature whose skin could not even be pierced by a heavy machine gun.
Not to ntion the various mysterious protections it had, as well as its own attacks, which made piercing its defense even more unlikely…
But now, in just the briefest of monts, that suddenly appearing fire-bodied figure had managed to instantly kill it, blasting its flesh and blood all over the sky!
It was unimaginable how this was achieved.
“Wait, this figure, it feels sowhat familiar…” blurted out a Transcendent from the team.
If at first they didn’t see it clearly when it appeared as a blurry ice-blue shadow, now that the figure was bursting with flas, they imdiately recognized sothing…
Isn’t that the guy in the wheelchair?!
Right, they indeed couldn’t see this person at the scene right now and didn’t know where he’d gone.
“What do you an, you know who it is?” asked the Golden Mask man, number 223, who was being carried on the shoulder of an ard person, with surprise.
He and 331 had just been ambushed and hadn’t noticed what was happening here; in their eyes, it was almost as if, when they thought they couldn’t escape, a figure suddenly burst forth, and then the situation of attack and defense changed drastically.
“I’m not sure, but if it really is him, then it must be Bonfire Company’s support arriving again, it’s just that, his aura has changed greatly now, resembling ‘Divine Strike,’ but I have never seen this type of ‘Divine Strike’ before…” The Transcendent half-closed his eyes, as if he had thought of sothing.
“It’s not without precedent…” Xia Liufang suddenly spoke, “His way of speaking is very similar to a senior I’ve heard of before, who had a similar style and also could manipulate ice…”
Being on the path of ‘Divine Strike’, she naturally had heard so things; so internal docunts were distributed a few days ago, seeking the identity of a certain person, initiated by her uncle, Luo Wenhao.
Xia Liufang had seen that file, and the description matched the person in front of her: able to manipulate ice, speaking in exaggerated terms, in possession of many peculiar items, with an extrely strong combined combat capacity…
Each trait matched up one by one.
She wasn’t sure before, but now she was certain that this guy definitely ca from Bonfire Company.
But, after searching for a while with no results, everything had been put aside, and she didn’t expect to now see soone fitting that description appear again.
However, she was unsure whether Colin had just had his body borrowed or if there was really sothing wrong with him.
Qin Chuan was also watching the figure clearing the path ahead, deep in thought, as he recalled so inconsistencies along the way, the most prominent being the ti when Colin’s wheelchair was wrecked…
While everyone at the scene couldn’t react, a “normal person” did manage to react.
Then there were various details; this person encountered many things along the way but rarely showed any signs of shock—a part of him even wondered if the man’s calmness was like soone who had lived through World War II…
But now thinking about it, it also felt like he inherently possessed certain confidence, so nothing seed to unsettle him.
Although there was one ti another Bonfire Company supporter arrived, that supporter’s abilities were obviously different from the person before them now.
He was so full of certainty when he first refused them while sitting in the wheelchair, and he still is now; Qin originally thought it might be a personality quirk, but now thinking about it…
Is it possible that as early as that ti…
Various contradictions unfolded in his mind.
Of course, he was just suspicious and not entirely certain because there were many other explanations for the current situation.
For example, it wasn’t impossible that Bonfire Company had used so thod to have a ‘Divine Strike’ descend.
After all, this power that had suddenly appeared less than a year ago was characterized by the fact that its mbers always had an astonishing variety of powerful abilities and objects.
However, just as he was about to speak, Hu Zheng on the side suddenly spoke up and reached a conclusion: “It must be right, it certainly is Bonfire Company’s support that has arrived, just like Miss Xia Liufang said, so kind of thod akin to ‘Divine Strike,’ and Colin must be the Container for this power!
“Have you heard about possession?” he asked. “It’s like, maybe so old man’s spirit has gotten into him.”
Qin Chuan looked at him thoughtfully. Even he could sense that sothing was amiss, so Hu Zheng, who was the most sensitive of them all, should definitely have noticed…
At this mont, if not for the friendship that had started in high school and felt as close as brothers, he would have almost suspected his friend of betrayal.
Nevertheless, as soone who knew him well, he could tell that the other was always steering the conversation in a certain direction.
He elbowed Hu Zheng, who clearly realized why he had done so, but just shook his head slightly…
Huh? Does Colin really have an issue? Qin Chuan was taken aback.
“Do you guys think there’s a chance that this guy has always been problematic? To be honest, along the way…” said an official Transcendent who had been seriously injured and seldom spoke, as he couldn’t help but point out that the others always seed to miss “the main point.”
But before he could finish, Hu Zheng’s eyelid twitched, and he abruptly interrupted, “Aren’t you being a bit too paranoid?”
The man frowned. All along this journey, Hu Zheng had always been covering for the other, leading him to suspect that Hu Zheng might have an ulterior motive. Expanding on that thought, could this incident also be related to him, no, them?
“Are you hiding sothing?” he asked warily. The situation now was such that, despite clearly heading towards a trap, that guy was still leading them on—the problem was significant.
Hiding sothing? What can I hide? Boss, weren’t you the one who’ve been hiding things well before? Why are you suddenly being so brazen? At least change your tone of voice… Hu Zheng couldn’t help but grumble inwardly, casting a glance at Colin, who was holding his own against nurous enemies ahead—
In fact, it was only after the Fishn attack that he had confird so things about Colin…
But for so reasons, even with his certainty, he couldn’t point it out.
However, seeing that people were becoming divided on-site because of “Colin’s” undisguised actions at the front, he took out a piece of the “Book of Fate: Fragnt” and quickly sensed it before he cautiously said:
“I understand your concerns, but if you don’t want to experience a significant change in the ‘Threads of Fate,’ I advise you to stop saying things that go against unity…”
A major change in the “Threads of Fate”?
Are things really that serious?
Upon hearing this, everyone couldn’t help but gasp, knowing what it signified once it occurred.
The last ti it happened, Ao Island was torn asunder, and the entire region fell. In an ergency international mobilization, hundreds of high-level personnel headed to that country under the guise of joint mariti counter-terrorism drills, paying a hefty price to bury nearly half a continent along with part of human mory and recognition of that place.
And the reason for this significant alteration of the “Threads of Fate,” was said to be a mber of Fate Propeller who brought an antique there and ultimately forgot to bring it back, causing the incident.
The ti before that, the governnt first discovered Bonfire Company and began their infiltration efforts…
And the ti before that…
In any case, once it happened, whether for good or bad, it was not sothing they could handle.
“So, there are things you may know, but you can’t speak of them,” Hu Zheng said seriously. Not to ntion not being able to point it out, even if Colin ca forward to say there was a problem, they would have to conjure an excuse to cover for him.
The Transcendent quickly changed his tune, “I suddenly find Miss Xia Liufang’s words quite reasonable…”
He didn’t understand why speaking up could lead to such severe consequences, but obviously, the situation was beyond his control. Instead of pondering over it, it would be better to think of a way to leave when the ti ca and let the bigwigs handle it.

ps: Actually, it’s not that I never had suspicions, it’s just that I wasn’t sure, and with Hu Zheng forcefully ddling in secret for so reasons… made it even more uncertain.
