Chapter 481: Chapter 408: The Repeat of Yesterday (6K for subscription and monthly ticket)_2
“It’s hard to say for sure; we’ll have to be more careful when planting potatoes in the future…” “Son of Cruelty” pursed his lips.
“Alright, let’s continue with the investigation below and see if we can find anything else of value.”
Colin waved his hand, handed over a “Plasma Potato” to the company, and then continued to lead them with the “The Sealed Right Hand” card in his hand.
Not many anomalies trapped in “Ti Reversal” were found on sub-level two…
However, they were significantly stronger than those on sub-level one, otherwise, they wouldn’t have made it this far; unfortunately, although they encountered other escaped containnt subjects twice during the period, they weren’t of much value.
Or rather, they weren’t of much value to them at the mont.
Besides, Colin and the others also ca across a few bodies, so of different races and so belonging to starship crew mbers.
“Strange, as far as we can tell, if not recovered by the company, once soone dies or moves beyond a certain range, they would be forced into ti reversal and usually not leave a corpse behind. So how did these bodies remain?”
In one corridor, Colin and his team looked at the corpse of a man in a faded brown coat, puzzled.
The corpse was like a mummified body in the desert, long dead…
And the cause of death seed to be the loss of half his head and several clean-through holes in his chest.
Even in death, his hands were still tightly gripping several chains, at the other ends of which were the bodies of several grotesque creatures…
They probably died together, taking each other down.
“Can’t make out the creatures, probably unknown species, and everything about it has been erased. He died thoroughly, to the extent that even his power level while alive can’t be discerned. But my gut feeling is that they wouldn’t have been C Level…”
Colin withdrew his gaze and didn’t dwell on the unsolved mysteries.
He tried to recover the body through the mission…
However, there was no response from the mission; it seed the company currently had no plans to retrieve this employee and bury him.
“Sorry, mate, I can’t take you with
for now, looks like you’ll have to lie here a while longer.”
After muttering to himself, Colin stepped past the area and headed towards the stairs further down the road.
Only after making sure with Fla Perception that there wouldn’t be any unpleasant surprises did he lead his four mobile eyes to the third sub-level…
Compared to above, the fog here was thicker and the atmosphere more oppressive.
Even the tal walls that had always been free of scratches now had so permanent marks on them.
“The strength of the monsters here must be quite high, after all, according to my estimation, at least a Third Level Containnt Subject would be needed to make marks on these special tal walls…”
“And those monsters caught in ‘Ti Reversal’ are honestly quite troubleso. They’re only triggered when you get close; normally, you can’t detect them through Bonfire, and you have to activate ‘The Sealed Right Hand’ to notice them…”
“But to constantly activate this thing is too draining on my energy; it’s not possible to maintain it all the ti… Let’s just take it one step at a ti, then.”
Shaking his head and gathering his thoughts, Colin continued to move forward as the mission required, searching for the staircase that led to the next level according to the mission’s directions.
However, as they approached the staircase leading down from the third sub-level, Colin and his team noticed that there were more bodies not caught in “Ti Reversal.”
Sotis in one corridor, there were only bodies in various states of death, indicating a high intensity of combat.
Even stranger, in so places, Colin could hear sounds without going there, whether it was a roar or heavy footsteps; the overall atmosphere was incredibly chaotic…
Yet, out of curiosity, they walked over to see if they could investigate anything. Still, they found nothing, triggered nothing, and saw nothing.
But after leaving, they could faintly hear whispers and see the silhouettes of unknown figures…
This place was no longer “quiet” like the first and second sub-levels.
“It’s almost like it’s haunted…”
Even with Brother Shunzi’s flas enhancing them, “Life ntor Adorable” couldn’t help but touch his own arm, feeling a chill down his spine.
He wasn’t afraid of the monsters that could be seen, but these invisible oddities made him sowhat uneasy.
“Prepare your defenses.”
Colin cautioned, then controlled a fireball to float behind his head and continued leading the team forward.
The mission directive was to keep investigating downward, but it didn’t specify how far down they had to go to complete it.
Even if they felt sothing was off, they had no choice but to proceed.
Another ten minutes later, after Colin had dealt with a creature caught in “Ti Reversal,” he couldn’t help but hiss sharply as he passed a crossroads corner…
There, for a considerable distance in the corridor beyond the bend, were carcasses wrapped in brown clothing.
They filled every corner, leaving hardly any room to set foot.
“They’re all human, and most likely starship employees. What happened here…”
Colin looked ahead, his pupils turning vertical and flickering with light. He vaguely made out a staircase a kiloter away leading to the next level, and on the road to this staircase, he saw countless carcasses.
And they were all uniformly employees of the company…
Gloomy, eerie, but… strangely, not frightening.
“All are facing away from the staircase, roughly judging, they must have been dealing with sothing? But it seems that there are no creatures other than humans, why is that? Are they incorporeal types, or were these people taken out in one fell swoop?”
