Chapter 522: Chapter 424 Second Mother’s “Book of Fate”. _2
For example, borrowing the power of a Martial Saint would begin to gravitate towards that particular personality.
This certainly doesn’t an getting close to the historical figure, but rather the one perceived by the public, which is not unified and can lead to increasing insanity…
However, there was once a double agent at level six, “Divine Strike,” who, after being injected with “Gene Compensation dicine,” could even manage to sleep while operating “Divine Strike”!
He could maintain it for an entire day. Aside from ntal exhaustion leading to collapse, there was no risk of becoming rigid.
Even the super-genius who used to wield “Divine Strike” could only operate it for three hours at most, not reaching this level.
In other words, what used to be their limit wasn’t even the new group’s minimum.
“Fate Propeller” double agents can now do sothing similar; as long as they don’t collapse from exhaustion, they can use “prediction” at will.
The key is, they also don’t feel that unease of being in debt to the “Book of Fate.”
“This isn’t even borrowing anymore; it’s seizing…” Xu Duojin couldn’t help but conclude.
Had they been able to use the “Gene Compensation dicine” alongside earlier, they feel like there would have been far fewer problems.
‘Seizing? That’s about right, fits the company’s usual style.’
Colin nodded, making no comnt on this, since although he was a mber of the company, he’d never been involved in seizing other people’s things, so there was no need for him to take the bla.
Later, after having so questions answered, Colin brought up the matter of trading.
“Is it starting again?” Xu Duojin beca interested at once.
The previous mission’s haul of equipnt had questionable durability to say the least, but the stability was simply goddamn phenonal.
He, along with so other senior personnel, had attempted to destroy one of the poorer pieces of equipnt to induce item malfunction and breakage.
The result was that the item indeed got wrecked by their tampering.
But even when it broke, the anomaly contained within didn’t go out of control.
Instead, it dissipated along with the item’s destruction…
It was a pity indeed. Although many distinctly unique structures could be seen inside, they couldn’t learn anything valuable from them.
Putting it bluntly, they didn’t understand a thing.
Even if they wanted to copy them, they couldn’t…
“Yep, the trade ti is January 4th at noon, here are the items, you guys can check the accounts,” Colin said as he passed the list over. “As for how many items we’ll ultimately obtain, that’s hard to say, it depends on what we end up securing.”
“No problem.”
Xu Duojin took the list and glanced over it.
“Four Level 2 Containnt Subjects, nine Third Level Containnt Subjects, and… a total of one hundred and ninety-one?”
The official standard for Level 2 Containnt Subjects consisted of very weak low-level items; the higher the level, the higher the danger. However, since they were trading with the company, they naturally used the company’s standards, so Xu Duojin was unlikely to make a mistake.
Estimating it, he roughly understood the other party’s needs…
“That’s correct.”
Colin nodded without changing his expression.
Although there were so discrepancies between the listed numbers and the actual items, during the trade and transportation, it’s possible that there could be so wear and tear, and they might be short a piece or two.
So it was understandable to report a higher count.
“No problem.”
Xu Duojin nodded. While his instincts told him there might be a slight issue with the list…
It was that sa instinct telling him that being blissfully ignorant was sotis a part of life.
Knowing too much wasn’t necessarily a good thing…
He carefully filed the list away in his suit’s inner pocket, then, with a smile on his face, tried to broach a new topic: “Speaking of which, is there any possibility of discussing technology related to item creation?”
Had he set his sights on the company’s item creation?
Colin shook his head: “In this regard, there’s almost no possibility…”
Even if the company didn’t mind about such matters, giving the actual technology would be challenging for these people to replicate, since the company’s item creation tied into so mysterious and specific agreents.
However, considering the company’s understanding of anomalies, providing so conceptual advice might be feasible.
Going any further, however, would be difficult.
Xu Duojin wasn’t surprised by his response; the gap between them was imnse, and the more he understood, the more he felt it.
The Bonfire Company, though called a company, could just as well be considered a type of advanced civilization.
“By the way, what’s the situation now with the followers of ‘Dawn Star’?” Colin changed the subject.
He had the officials watch these people long ago, even hinting at them to spread their ssage as widely as possible.
Now, several days later, he was curious about the developnts.
“It seems they’re saying… a powerful entity might return through a container that arrived not long ago. The rumor has gone wild outside…”
Xu Duojin’s expression was odd when ntioning this because the container in question had “descended” and escaped within their territory.
So within the Alliance criticized their mishandling of the situation…
But Xu Duojin, who knew more about the incident, was well aware that it was this man in front of him who had resolved it.
Not a single Heretic from the scene got away; all were killed.
Yet within a few days, there were rumors that the escape was successful and that the summoning of so Great Will to Earth was imminent…
Considering what Colin had instructed before…
Even if Xu Duojin thought with his feet, he could sense that the guy in front of him likely played a “not so honorable” role in the whole affair, and did it convincingly.
Otherwise, the specialized Heretic-fighting Churches would have noticed.
“Lately, not just us but every global official organization has received quite a lot of reports of evil forces. Does that have much to do with you, um, there’s no need to be too explicit…”
