Chapter 479: Chapter 407: The Terrifying Golden Uncontrollable Artifact!_2 Chapter 479: Chapter 407: The Terrifying Golden Uncontrollable Artifact!_2 He was curious about how this group of guys had initially appeared and what they were avoiding.
However, just at this mont…
…
“Brother Shunzi, which way should we go? Or should we split up to explore?” “Son of Cruelty” looked around, curiously asked a question, then rubbed his nose…
“No splitting up.”
Colin looked to either side and casually chose a direction.
After descending, the task guidance disappeared, probably allowing him to improvise.
‘However, there are strange auras all over the place, as if it’s crowded with people, yet there is no sign of any living thing besides the black fog, could it be that everything is dead?’
‘Strange, I keep feeling that sothing is off, very off…’
Colin and his companions observed as they moved forward and quickly realized that this place was like a huge maze.
Every thousand ters, there would be a crossroad shaped like the character “米.”
The whole thing was like an exceptionally special large maze.
Then, Colin glanced at the ground and shifted his gaze towards the distance.
This tal was too unique; even with the enhancent from the Power of the Bonfire, he couldn’t leave a mark on it. Forcing a path open would definitely co at a significant cost.
But no sooner had his gaze shifted, Colin suddenly froze—
He hadn’t tried it, so how would he know that even with the Power of the Bonfire he couldn’t breach it?
But before he had the chance to think further…
A series of hurried footsteps suddenly approached.
“Stay alert!”
Colin flicked his palm, and a ring on his ring finger transford into a revolver.
At the sa ti, a group of extrely unfamiliar yet oddly familiar demons charged out…
“Such weak auras, are they lone clerical staff?”
“Perfect, kill them!”
“Replenish our blood-food, then leave this cursed place and suicide to return!”
“Hurry, otherwise those things below will catch up!”
“…”
What’s catching up?
In his confusion, Colin saw a demon racing towards him at high speed, and without thinking, he fired a shot directly.
A 155mm shell blasted out from the muzzle…
Without any suspense, the demon instantly exploded into a rain of flesh under the heavily augnted shell.
‘Odd, I keep feeling… that sothing is very strange…’
While Colin was puzzled inside, the other employees didn’t seem to notice anything amiss.
Furthermore, when their companion died, the group of demons behind fled without hesitation, giving him no ti to think further as he imdiately gave chase.
Soon, all the demons were captured.
But Colin didn’t rush to interrogate them, feeling as though sothing might happen at this mont?
Suddenly, an inspiration flashed within him, he opened the task panel, and imdiately a new task appeared.
[Special Event: Kill any demon, recover it, and imdiately use the effect of “The Sealed Right Hand” to strengthen yourself…]
“Hint”: Act quickly.
“Just need to kill one? You should have said that earlier, wasting my ti… wait, when did a new task appear…”
Colin was puzzled, but he didn’t hesitate and imdiately prepared to do as requested.
He reached his hand into the “Storage Room.”
…
“Brother Shunzi, we…” “Son of Cruelty” began to speak.
But before he could finish, Colin interrupted, “Don’t scatter, this way…”
“Uh.” “Son of Cruelty” was stunned, he hadn’t finished speaking yet, how did Brother Shunzi know what he wanted to ask?
At the sa ti, Colin was also montarily startled, looking around, feeling very familiar with the surroundings.
But he didn’t dwell on it and quickly headed in the chosen direction…
The others felt sothing off about Brother Shunzi but still followed closely behind him, moving rapidly.
In a short while, footsteps could be heard from behind…
“Stay alert!”
As Colin drew his gun, the thought subconsciously appeared in his mind: ‘Here they co again, wait, why would I say again?’
And at that mont, a group of demons that seed familiar appeared.
The sa dialogue followed…
Yet another demon burst forth.
A loud “bang” sounded.
The demon instantly exploded, with the others scattering in frenzy.
Colin was about to give chase but suddenly rembered sothing and opened the task panel.
“This task…”
At that mont, Colin vaguely understood so things. Instead of chasing after the group of demons, he approached the pile of “Italian bolognese” that seed familiar. He confird the task was to upload these items.
At the sa ti, he pulled out an orange card nad “The Sealed Right Hand” from his pocket.
“Isn’t this thing supposed to be used only during ‘Item Liberation’?”
Harboring doubts, Colin infused a large amount of spiritual energy into the card and imdiately felt a more refined familiarity with “Ti Freeze.”
If he continued to stimulate it, he might be able to use “Ti Freeze” with slightly greater strength.
But to maintain its effect through a huge exertion of strength for just a bit more proficiency was clearly not worth it.
Even Colin couldn’t use it for an extended period…
‘However, what is the reason the task requires to do this?’
Colin had a feeling of semi-understanding.
But before he could figure anything out, an anomaly suddenly occurred.
“What’s happening with that group of demons?” “Life ntor Adorable” looked ahead in surprise.
They saw the demons, which had originally scattered in retreat, comically reverse back through the corridors from all directions, the whole process resembling a film being played in reverse…
They seed to regroup at the crossroads and then step by step retreat back to their original spots.
However, the “Speed Equals Strength” that had been reclaid was gone forever.
Even ti reversal could not make the company regurgitate what it had consud.
anwhile, as he watched this unfold, so mories surfaced in Colin’s mind…
“Damn it! No wonder everything feels so familiar…”
Colin sensed the mories in his brain, then quickly made a strange face, as these mories also included the process of reversal.
And then…
He saw the “Son of Cruelty” spit that phlegm twice in succession…
“Hiss…”
Colin shook his head, throwing the disgusting image out of his mind. Seeing the “Son of Cruelty,” who was completely oblivious to everything, he hesitated for half a second but decided not to tell him about this for now…
Afterward, looking at the demons being reversed by an unknown power…
Colin realized which Golden Card was involved in this incident.
“Ti Reversal.”
Besides this card, Colin couldn’t think of any other effect that could trigger such a similar result at the mont.
Looking at the orange card in his hand, he couldn’t help shaking his head…
‘No wonder the company sent here, probably no one else would be quite right for the job besides , at least not with a high cost-effectiveness.’
‘But usually, a Golden Card’s effect only extends a few tens of ters, and I didn’t notice it nearby, tsk…’
‘This card isn’t in so kind of imminent uncontrollable state, is it? A Golden Artifact on the brink of being out of control, and they send to do the retrieval work, is that really appropriate…’
With these thoughts flickering through his mind, Colin couldn’t help but exhale deeply.
And it was at this mont that he felt the power that caused ti to reverse in this place disappear.
He imdiately deactivated “The Sealed Right Hand” effect, then showed a trace of weariness in his eyes…
This thing really drains one’s energy severely.
At the sa ti, a new sub-mission event appeared.
[Event Six: For unknown reasons, the location of “Ti Reversal” still cannot be locked. Please proceed to the negative second floor of the mothership or below, and try to recover as many remnants of the Heretic Races creatures as possible to gather further intelligence.]
…
“Can’t sense it, eh? That’s very much like . When I was stimulating the right hand, I felt like this card was here, omnipresent yet seemingly nowhere…”
Colin recalled his previous feelings and then shook his head, gathering his thoughts.
At this mont, “Life ntor Adorable” saw him co out of his contemplative state and inquired about the situation.
“It’s sowhat related to what we’re here to recover, but let’s talk while we’re on the move…”
Saying this, Colin followed the mission guide, looking in a certain direction and started explaining the situation as they moved forward.
“Hiss, another Golden Card…” Several D Level Personnel couldn’t help but exchange glances.
Brother Shunzi said it’s about retrieving for the company, but they all felt that this card would probably end up in Brother Shunzi’s hands…
If that happened, he would likely be the only person in the company to hold two Golden Artifacts!
Ignoring what these people were thinking, Colin earnestly led the team forward. Along the way, he encountered the “Ti Reversal” phenonon several tis and faced a few waves of enemies that appeared out of nowhere…
There were demons, as well as other cultists and oddities.
But being prepared this ti, he killed and reclaid them almost instantly upon encountering them.
“It seems like they’ve been trapped in different temporal loops, possibly being triggered when I get close and thus reappearing out of thin air. Is this what the signal warning ant by saying you can’t leave once you enter?”
“But is this really the true power of a Golden Card? It’s terrifying…”
Colin pondered thoughtfully.
After about fifteen minutes, they ca upon a spiral staircase leading downward.
