Chapter 94: Chapter 94 Mole_1
“So, how am I supposed to use this thing? Wait until after I’ve killed it and then throw the ball over to see it shake three tis?”
Colin weighed the ball in his hand and thought back to when he had killed those Shadow Monsters; it seed they would directly split apart and disappear in an instant, with no way to be contained.
However, at this mont, a tily “inspiration” appeared, resolving his confusion—
Using it didn’t require throwing; simply keeping it in an open state and killing the black figures while it was active would be enough.
“Using it is quite convenient, though.”
Colin muttered to himself and then glanced over the mission description again. “No wonder that ‘Frontier Guard’ is now bogged down in a tough battle. Who would have thought that the real body of the monsters is not the assud Stone Buddha, but those Shadow Monsters thought to be insignificant fodder?
“It’s like fighting a boss. You battle your way to the boss chamber, only to find that the boss can’t be killed, and at best, you can only seal it, but there are also the endlessly respawning minions, which really is a headache.
“But it’s no wonder they missed it, with a group of Cultists interfering; it’s normal that they didn’t realize…
“But they’ve been going in the wrong direction. Lacking this piece of information, all their efforts are in vain.”
During his contemplation, Colin guessed most of the situation regarding the abnormity in the area.
It’s possible that even now the ‘Frontier Guard’ hasn’t realized this point, or perhaps they have, but because they’ve wasted too much energy on the statue, they no longer have the strength to deal with the other shadows and are now just barely hanging on.
Of course, whether they know it or not, the Cultists behind the scenes are certainly aware of this fact.
If he targets the black shadows later, the Cultists will definitely notice and then co over to attack him…
If nothing unexpected happens, he will definitely beco the focus of their attacks.
“I’m not sure about the strength of the ‘Frontier Guard’, but if the Cultists are all like that Wu Sheng guy, then they’re not too strong. If they’re all of that caliber, even if a hundred of them co at , I could take my ti hunting them down…”
Colin pressed his hand to his forehead, but considering that the ‘Frontier Guard’ and his team used thirteen ‘Book of Fate’ cards and still didn’t manage to detect these people, it was enough to show how cunning they were.
So it’s still better to be a little cautious…
At that mont, a breeze slipped through the gaps in the windows into the bathroom.
Colin turned his head and glanced outside the window. By now, the sun had completely set, and outside, everything was enveloped in darkness, barely distinguishable by silhouette.
The ti displayed on his phone indicated it was already seven in the evening.
Without much thought, he reached out to tug the window, ensuring it was firmly closed.
In fact, Hu Xiaoyuan hadn’t ant completely sealing off without leaving any gaps, but rather simply ensuring that the doors and windows were properly shut; otherwise, the people inside the building could have suffocated.
Afterward, he tucked the parchnt into his pocket, stood up to take care of his physiological needs, washed his hands, and left the bathroom.
At this mont, in the hall, a few white candles, whereabouts unknown, had been lit. Under the dim light of the flas, the surroundings took on an indescribably eerie atmosphere.
Better off without lights, at this point my vision is worse than my sense of sll… Colin muttered to himself internally and returned to his seat on the sofa with an impassive face.
Before the cleaner from the sanitation station could continue asking him about his plans, Colin took the initiative to question Hu Xiaoyuan about the strength of those Cultists.
“They worship an entity known as ‘Mother of the Red Moon’, commonly referred to as ‘Church of the Red Moon’…
“Furthermore, their powers range approximately from Level 1 to Level 3. The group you just killed earlier was likely a small squad that split off, led by a Level 2, while the rest were all Level 1…”
Another set of standards different from Bonfire Company’s, why can’t they just unify it… Colin felt a bit of a headache, but at least now he had a reference.
The ‘Hemorrhoid Spirit’ was Level 2, the rest were Level 1…
“According to this calculation, wouldn’t an ordinary Second Order ‘Beastification’ without vampirism be Level 3? Could I be Level 4 or even Level 5? If the enemy leader is just Level 3, that’s pretty weak…”
As thoughts flickered through his mind, Colin spoke, “Right, do you know the exact content of the last ‘Book of Fate’?”
“Yes, I’ve brought it with …”
Hu Xiaoyuan took out a yellowed piece of rice paper and passed it over; Colin took the paper and glanced at it.
On it, in very neat red handwriting, were written so matters that would “happen” in the future.
Broadly speaking, it stated that as the situation here grew increasingly dire, a supporter entered the sealed township from the square by unknown ans.
He called himself “Mr. Lin” and arrived with five burdens in tow, deterring those present with his fierce thods.
But unfortunately, it seed that due to various probing attempts, “Mr. Lin” had not been able to resolve the issue in ti. Consequently, the restrictions around the Stone Buddha were broken, disaster erupted, and in order to save others, the user stayed behind and died while buying ti for everyone else.
And “Mr. Lin” led the others to break out and escape…
Colin didn’t see what his own ultimate fate was, but judging from the situation, the reason for the mission’s failure was his inability to complete the containnt task in ti, not a lack of strength to do so.
According to the paper, after his arrival, he first encountered Hu Xiaoyuan but was mistaken for a cultist; the two sides fought, although not for long, as night arrived and he went deeper in, encountering other people. All in all, because of various alerts and probes, they missed the best opportunity…
It wasn’t until the end that the “Frontier Guards” and the “Cleaners” realized he was an ally, and they had all made a huge blunder.
This ti, however, Colin was without these troubles.
“The ‘Book of Fate’ really ca in handy, of course, it looks like those cultists don’t have a ‘Book of Fate’ in their hands, or else the situation would be quite different.”
As Colin felt relieved, he also harbored many complaints about the creator of the “Book of Fate: Fragnt.”
If the enemy got their hands on this thing, the trouble would be real…
What Colin didn’t notice was that while he was inspecting the content on the “Book of Fate,” Hu Xiaoyuan was also discreetly sizing him up.
Only after confirming that he truly could understand the content, rather than pretending to read, did she sowhat relax.
The ‘Book of Fate’ is one of the three main pathways of power for the ‘Fate Propeller’ ability users within the relevant departnts. It is said that the material used to create it is the sa as that used for the ancient and mysterious ‘Tui Bei Map,’ but she didn’t know the specifics.
This was among the highest and most central of secrets…
Anyway, she knew that under certain specific restrictions, people unrelated to the pertinent departnts could not comprehend the content of the ‘Book of Fate.’ Since this “Mr. Lin” could understand it, that ant he was definitely one of their own…
Although she didn’t know why this person from their side didn’t have any identification, she didn’t have ti to think about it now.
Colin scanned the yellow paper again, asked a few questions, then handed the ‘Book of Fate’ back to Hu Xiaoyuan, and said, “I have a general understanding of the situation now. It’s a little after seven thirty, let’s rest a while, and start the operation at eight o’clock…”
“Have a look for soone who can accompany
to the source later; we’ll aim to resolve everything in one go.”
Hearing Colin’s words, Hu Xiaoyuan nodded, “Alright, I’ll accompany you there; I’m the most familiar with the situation here.”
“Hmm, that’s fine, but did you notice one thing?”
Pausing for a mont, Colin looked at her and said, “Haven’t you realized there is a mole among you?”
