Chapter 467: Chapter 401: A Bit Too Urbanized. _2
“It must be so sort of joke from that so-called ‘Mr. C’ that he found on so website, to scare these guys…”
His gaze swept over each piece of information, and Colin’s mind grew more perplexed.
He had co to learn a bit about this revered ‘Mr. C’ among the “Pseudo-Humans” in recent days.
It seed he was the first of their kind to arrive in the human world.
An equivalent of a pioneer among them, he had taught many “Pseudo-Humans” the essentials of living…
But that was about it.
“Forget it, just keep observing. If there’s really an issue, the company should issue a corresponding task.”
After finishing his daily observations, Colin withdrew his attention.
Then, seeing that he still had so ti, he started a few rounds in the “self-selected trials.”
It was not until late into the night that Colin lay back down by the window, waiting for the event to begin.
“The moon is so bright tonight…”
The pale moonlight poured in from outside the window. As Colin turned his head to look, he couldn’t help but exclaim, realizing it was a full moon tonight.
The crisp light seed to drape the world in a hazy veil…
And that moon suspended in the sky…
Colin frowned suddenly, feeling sowhat… uncomfortable at the sight?
However, before he could ponder further, the ti for the task arrived, and a transparent vortex appeared in the room, and from it trickled starlight that shone upon him.
It was at this mont…
Many kiloters away, in an independent spatial city accessible only at specific tis and specific places,
Thousands of “Dawn Star” followers knelt on the ancient altar, lashing themselves with spiked whips. After each prayer, they would flog themselves, their bodies blurred with blood and flesh…
The sll of blood spread throughout the town.
However, despite how bizarre this thod seed, it only unified their resolve even more.
And this was their penance for losing the “Starlight Maiden.”
“Great ‘Dawn Star,’ I beseech you, grant us one more chance, a chance for redemption; for that, we are willing to offer everything…” a Priest said, trembling with fear.
The recent ritual had been a complete failure, with not only many high-ranking mbers within their organization dying but also the most important divine container, the “Starlight Maiden,” going missing.
Afterward, the Master’s response was completely cut off not long after the disappearance of the “Starlight Maiden.”
Had it not been for the ability to still use so associated blessings…
They almost believed they had been abandoned by the “Dawn Star.”
No, perhaps they had already been abandoned.
The power they now possessed was probably just sothing the great being couldn’t be bothered to reclaim…
The thought that he might never again experience the delight of being fiercely filled by those invisible tendrils drove the believer into despair.
If that was the case, what was the point of living?
However, just then, the despairing “Dawn Star” followers suddenly saw a glimr of hope as countless stars fell from the dark canopy above…
Soon, within the altar, an indistinct shadow of starlight ford.
“It’s the aura of the ‘Master’!”
“Thank goodness! I knew it, I just knew that we wouldn’t be abandoned…”
“Praise the Great Will, praise the Divine Envoy!”
“…”
One after another, the “Dawn Star” followers, with reddened eyes and trembling lips, witnessed this.
And while they were moved, Colin also took the opportunity to cast his gaze upon this place, this bizarre space hidden from reality.
The space was not very large, probably totaling no more than 150,000 square ters, with pitch darkness beyond its edges.
Within this limited land, there were various modern buildings everywhere.
“If this place were a castle or sothing, the atmosphere might be full, but as it is, it lacks a sense of mystery…”
Colin judged in his mind, feeling it was a bit too urbanized.
Then, without giving it much more thought, he saw a High Priest approach, his upper body drenched in blood, surrounded by starry lights, emitting a faint divine aura.
“I am High Priest Ramir. May I ask, are you the new ‘Divine Envoy’, sir?” the High Priest asked tremblingly.
‘Not very strong, if I take this seriously, I could probably kill him within a few minutes. If I use the Golden Card, instantly taking him down wouldn’t be a problem either. But he seems to be willingly assigning
an identity? Good, saves
the trouble of making excuses…’
Colin, in his state of Starlight projection, looked at him and slowly nodded, uttering a simple “Yes.”
Upon hearing this, the thousands of believers burst into tears…
“Praise the Great Master, thank you for not abandoning us!” One follower, elated, grabbed a handful of leaves similar to those of nettles, and furiously rubbed them on his festering scalp.
“We request the great ‘Divine Envoy’ to lash us harshly…”
Aside from that, other followers also began performing various incomprehensible acts as if they had lost their minds…
‘I was prepared for this, but seeing it now still feels strange…’
Colin couldn’t help but criticize inwardly, these people stood out even among the various Heretic Forces.
Of course, what stood out was their peculiar behavior…
However, this ti, Colin noticed that as these bizarre demons tornted themselves, their spiritual strength kept rising…
In the end, the spiritual power of a large group of people converged and connected with the “Light” on his body.
But after the frenzy went on for over a minute, when they saw that the “Divine Envoy” remained silent and did not tornt them like the “Starlight Maiden” with invisible tentacles…
One by one, as if doused with a bucket of cold water, they all quieted down.
” ‘Master’s’ Angel Envoy, may I ask, what should we do?” the High Priest who had spoken earlier asked cautiously.
They had no doubts about Colin’s identity, for the power emanating from him was the genuine, unmistakable force of the “Dawn Star.”
If one wanted to impersonate such a thing, it would imply that the great being they worshiped was dead, otherwise it wouldn’t be possible.
But how could that be?
How could the “Dawn Star” possibly die!
Everyone knows that the great beings are eternal and immortal!
Therefore, a “Divine Envoy” graced with the power of the “Dawn Star” couldn’t possibly be a fake!
“I’ve co here to do three things…”
Colin looked at him and said calmly, “First, gather as much information about other Heretic Cults as possible. The last operation faced setbacks because the intelligence work wasn’t sufficient…
“Second, once we’ve gathered enough information, summon all believers here.”
“Third, when everything is ready, our Master will descend upon this world soon after!
“Everyone here will have the chance of spiritual ascension, to return to the ‘Master’s’ side, and bask in eternal glory!”
Hearing these words, the followers in the crowd were stunned for a mont, then burst into cheers again.
“We will definitely fulfill your entrustnt! Within seven days, we must obtain all the information we can on the Heretic Forces…” the Priest hurriedly promised.
After speaking, he seed to recall sothing and asked in a slightly lowered voice:
“Honorable Divine Envoy, how fares the holy ‘Starlight Maiden’, if I may inquire…”
He lost the bet, likely living more comfortably than you by now… With a thought fleeting through his mind, Colin’s expression remained unchanged as he spoke indifferently, “That is not your concern…”
As he spoke, a wave of pressure spread out from him.
Sensing the power within, the follower instantly felt a chill in his heart and quickly bowed his head in prayer for forgiveness.
However, at that mont, he heard the “Divine Envoy” reply in an indifferent tone:
“If all goes well, the ‘Master’ might return from its journey…”
Upon hearing this, he was overjoyed and promptly praised while promising, “Three days, just three days, and we will have fulfilled all that you have commanded!”
They had heard that the “Starlight Maiden” had disappeared, and with “Red Moon” followers involved, he had assud that she may have been captured by the “Red Moon,” possibly tornted severely…
But now, going by the Divine Envoy’s words…
It seed the tables had turned, and the danger had passed without incident!
A new era belonging to them was dawning!
Feeling the devout faith emanating from this Priest, Colin suddenly thought that rely using them to gather so information and then neutralizing them without harm felt like too small a gain.
After pondering for a mont, he opened his mouth and added a few minor requests of his own to the Priest.
