Chapter 539: Chapter 430 “0-09 ‘Hunger'” News._2
The “Firebearer” who ca here that year must have been Rosen…
To Colin’s surprise, these “Fiery Brothers,” who would often turn their enemies to cinders, didn’t seem to have taken much action at that ti.
Instead, they provided another type of aid to the three Saints who had been advancing in succession.
“The Weapon of Critique.”
They mainly provided various ideological support beyond the use of force, which shattered the teachings of the “God of Holy Light” and destroyed its mystique.
In essence, it was akin to issuing a “Human Declaration” to the “Holy Light Court,” which at that ti was comparable to the “Land-based God Kingdom,” and laid the foundation for secular liberation in theology.
“Who would have thought, these guys, aside from getting their hands dirty, would also use their brains…”
Colin was rather taken aback.
In his mind, the “Firebearers,” as a combat unit, would only talk physics, but unexpectedly, they also dealt with reason, which was staggering…
It’s just a pity that it’s unclear why these guys disappeared so thoroughly after their collaboration with “Light,” leaving hardly any traces behind.
Of course, according to what Shana said, when these people disappeared…
The so-called “God of Holy Light” also vanished.
I wonder if they were caught by the “Firebearers” to make soup.
Colin scratched his head, feeling unable to comprehend the logic—like how Saints are chosen by “Light,” and the “Light” that the “Holy Light Court” used to worship was the “God of Holy Light.”
So… Did He choose Saints to be His very own antithesis?
No, that’s not right…
Thinking of these people’s circumstances, Colin had so thoughts—
“The God of Holy Light” might be related to “Light” but might not be “Light.”
“Forget it, I won’t think about this anymore. It seems that even if I could understand it, I wouldn’t be able to figure out where these people went, what they did, and why they ended up in such a plight.”
While his thoughts flickered, he turned and looked at his little chapel, which writes “Church of Light” but reads “Bonfire” Church…
He had previously asked the Saintess about the chapel.
She didn’t know either, stating it was beyond her knowledge.
Every “Church” was registered, with sothing akin to an identity card, but this one had none. The reason might be related to the Bonfire or simply because there wasn’t one.
Then, Shana told him that he could ask the mbers of the “Virtue Knight Order.”
Because according to her, a “Humility Knight” had died here, and even the disappearance of a single “Virtue Knight” bound to just one vow was supposed to be recorded.
Unfortunately, communication with the “Virtue Knights” who ca here revealed they were also unaware of this.
The death of a “Virtue Knight” was definitely a significant event.
However, recently, and over the years, aside from the God Descent not long ago, there were hardly any battles here. Though there were deaths, none were of “Humility Knights”…
So there were plans to check back later, and speak on the matter the next ti he ca.
Similarly, they had no knowledge of any “Bonfire” Church in the past.
“These people, they left cleanly, without leaving much information…”
Colin shook his head; he cared quite a bit about this matter.
However, aside from these loose ends, another matter had made so progress.
It was about the situation with the heretical force, the “Feast of Gluttony”…
It could be confird that it was indeed highly likely associated with “Hunger.”
Or, to be more precise, it was a fragnt of “Hunger,” and it was estimated that the main body’s fragnt was not small.
Shana told him not to worry, as she had a way to find these guys.
“I wonder if I can face them directly, ah, that seems difficult. If their revival is too advanced, like if they’re completely satiated, I’m afraid that neither the Saintess nor I would be enough to fight. Though what the Saintess truly looks like is still unclear…”
“Anyway, fighting ‘Hunger,’ as long as we can find it, would work as a human transmitter, allowing Lady Bunny to summon the legions through the agreent…”
Colin mumbled to himself, not too worried about this.
If it were any other “Level 0,” he might have been scared.
But “Hunger” was highly controlled by the company, so there really wasn’t much to fear.
If the fight went south, just call for back-up…
At that mont, footsteps approached, and Colin gathered his thoughts to see “Life ntor Adorable” and others arriving.
Apart from two slightly better-off D Level Personnel, the rest had an air of effortless grace.
With “Colorless Crystal”
“Bonfire”
“Tree of Fla?” They would say they’re tired and indeed their bodies could take it, but they felt listless nevertheless…
“We’ve co to report on the main intelligence of the domain…” a D Level Personnel began, and seeing Colin nod, he signaled everyone to sit down. So, without further ado, they sat down.
By the bonfire, a small eting comnced.
Soon, through their reports, Colin ca to understand the situation here.
No warfare in the territory…
Aside from a bit of chaos due to accommodating new arrivals, there was basically nothing else amiss.
All work steadily progressed over these few days, and with the addition of the “Base Vehicle,” efficiency in all tasks greatly increased.
This thing was too versatile, once deployed, it had various labs, all sorts of data detection equipnt, high-temperature furnaces, as well as dical facilities, food supply, command center, and so on…
It was almost like a construction site’s main engine.
Except for the fact that it hadn’t considered where they would sleep, lacking dormitories and leaving everyone to find their own spot to roll out sleeping mats, everything else was fine.
In terms of construction capabilities, it could be said to be on par with Purple Gear, rivaling the prowess of Orange Gear.
——It was just that one matter making Colin feel sowhat uneasy: they had recently caught an employee who had been stealthily offering usurious loans with compounding interest.
No, to say he was offering usurious loans wasn’t quite right, for in a certain sense, his actions resembled charity.
Because the purpose was to accumulate the effects of a certain item he had.
And upon hearing the specifics of this item, Colin’s expression remained unchanged, but he couldn’t help but feel speechless inside.
‘It seems like many people have similar ‘demon’ items; I wonder how much they’ve contributed to the company over the years.’
He felt that the company’s developnt likely owed an indelible contribution to these “demons.”
“This… What should the punishnt be?” “Life ntor Adorable” pulled Colin out of his contemplations with her question.
What punishnt…
Colin couldn’t help but fall silent for a mont, as this could be considered the company’s first employee “cri;” although, calling it a “cri” wasn’t exactly accurate, since everything was established by common consent and there were no explicit rules as such.
The person hadn’t caused any serious consequences…
Yet to not impose so form of action seed improper as well.
After pondering for a few seconds, Colin finally spoke, “You handle it, and don’t be too harsh. But one thing, so rules do need to be established; discuss it among yourselves and show
the results when you’ve reached a decision…”
“Alright.” Everyone nodded, indicating no objections.
One could foresee that as more people obtained the “Other World Crossing Gift Pack,” there would invariably be all kinds of issues.
Therefore, so internal regulations for our own needed to be set down…
To avoid disputes that might arise and be irresolvable later on.
Before long, the mini-eting concluded, and everyone dispersed.
Rarely did they get a half-day off in the evening, and they certainly weren’t keen to keep working nonstop.
So went off to stretch their legs, while others grabbed a bundle of straw, spread it out, and went straight to sleep.
Ti passed little by little…
When the twelfth hour arrived, the thick darkness beyond the flas abruptly brightened, as if soone had hit a light switch, making the hazy glow appear from nowhere, illuminating the world.
“Could ‘World Code’ possibly be sothing like a ‘Starship’ too?”
Even after witnessing such scenes many tis, he still found it amazing.
The Night was distinctly divided between darkness and the bonfire’s light…
From black night to dawn, there was no interdiate transition, it simply changed.
By daylight, everything was dimly lit, but no light source could be seen.
However, before he could ponder too deeply, he heard the Little Maid’s voice by his ear.
“Sir… I have received so unknown signals in the form of large, special brainwave patterns emanating from deep within the ground…”
“Received unknown signals?” Colin was startled, “You just said, from where?”
“From underground…” The Little Maid said calmly.
Hearing this, Colin vaguely recalled sothing, “Is it possible to play it?”
“Yes, shall I start playing it now?”
“Yes.”
As his words fell, the Little Maid simulated the sound, which ca through disjointed, like a kind of lant.
Hearing this voice, though distorted yet with a sowhat familiar tone and style, Colin’s expression began to turn strange and contemplative.
