Chapter 633: Chapter 472 “The Sleepless in the Eternal Cold Wave”_2 Chapter 633: Chapter 472 “The Sleepless in the Eternal Cold Wave”_2 “Dying like this might be for the best.”
Mr. Chang closed his eyes and waited quietly for the storm to co, for the cold to descend and turn him into an ice sculpture.
However, the expected death did not arrive.
Even the vibrations outside the window, at this mont, ceased entirely.
In front of his eyelids, there seed to be a bright light and a pleasant warmth spreading…
“Who’s there?”
As he opened his eyes, he saw the gigantic humanoid creature in the surging cold fog suddenly burst into flas inexplicably, let out a shrill and sharp scream, and fall to the ground.
The terrifying cold fog also dissipated at this mont.
“Oh, finally, a living person.” A voice suddenly echoed in the outpost.
Mr. Chang was startled, turned around, and saw a young man who had, at so unknown ti, walked into the hall, flas flickering about him.
“Are you… soone from back ho?” he asked uncertainly, responding in Mandarin.
“Yeah, one of our own.”
“One of our own?” Mr. Chang beca alert.
The ssage sent out, according to expectations, the personnel who would first co to help would never be from within the country, the distance was simply too far…
Amid his confusion, he couldn’t help but take a closer look at the other person’s appearance…
Black hair, black eyes, brown long-sleeved undershirt, big slippers…
This attire… could only be said to match so people’s imagination of a “master.”
Of course, what made Mr. Chang most cautious was that he couldn’t make out the other person’s strength; if not for the presence of the fla, the other would appear almost indistinguishable from an ordinary person in his eyes.
“Just took care of so things, passed by here and thought I’d check in, incidentally resolve the issues here as well…”
Colin waved his hand, his gaze sweeping over his clothing: “How’s the situation here, are there any other survivors? You two, can either of you accompany on a short trip later?”
The company’s mission guidance on Earth was hit or miss, which made pinning down a precise location a bit uncertain for him.
He needed soone to lead the way…
“I can, but can you prove your identity?”
“A way to prove my identity, huh? Hiss…”
Colin stroked his chin, suddenly realizing that he seed to lack global travel docunts…
And his slightly hesitant actions also made Mr. Chang nervous and alert. He surreptitiously made a hand gesture to notify his colleagues to prepare to commit suicide at any mont through a specific thod.
To prevent heretics from obtaining information from their brains through evil ans…
‘Ah, why do I feel like the reaction is quite intense.’
Colin wasn’t clear about the ssage conveyed by their subtle gestures, but he could generally detect from the two a sense of “fish die and the net breaks”…
After thinking for a while, he said:
“Will dostic work?”
“Yes, any official institution will do,” Mr. Chang nodded.
Upon hearing this, Colin didn’t dawdle; he searched the “Storage Room” and took out the pass docunt, displaying it before the other…
A paper contract photocopy? Mr. Chang beca wary and thought it was fake the mont he saw its content.
Because it was simply too absurd!
On a small piece of paper, there were seven or eight stamps, all from the highest-level institutions’ hubs!
His experience told him this was nearly impossible!
Not only was there a “Fate Hub Office” but also the seal of his own “Great Wall” office …
If there was only one, he wouldn’t have doubted it, but a bunch of them together seed a bit fake.
But… the aura from each stamp assured him that the docunt’s authenticity was beyond question…
Especially at the bottom of the docunt, the signature of a man nad “Xu Duojin.”
This… this Mr. Xu was an actual big shot within “Fate Propeller,” one of the future five Ninth Level Candidates!
And “Fate Propeller” was very difficult to forge as well…
Because at their level, just the subjective act of writing their nas would let them sense it and slightly interfere with this place, and they might even already be watching, so…
This docunt looked ridiculously fake, but it was indeed real.
“Your identity is confird, there’s no problem…”
Upon seeing so many high-level stamps all at once, Mr. Chang involuntarily spoke with so respect, curious about who the other person was while realizing…
The young man before him might appear to be younger than him…
But in reality, he could be in his eighties or nineties, or even over a hundred years old!
“Yeah.”
Colin nodded, unaware that Mr. Chang already saw him as an elder well over a hundred years old, and put away the docunt in his hands.
He had two docunts that could prove his identity…
Aside from that, there was an identification for a “Fifth Level Personnel.”
However, presenting that proof might lead to even greater suspicion…
Following that, Colin looked at the Sixth Level Personnel and asked so other questions, “How is the situation here?”
Mr. Chang nodded and gave a brief and rapid introduction to the place.
There are still so survivors, but they are scattered across various outposts— not too many, possibly less than a hundred people, all sent by different forces to garrison the border.
After the recent charge, there might not even be a hundred left.
As for the situation here…
What appeared just now was a high-level lifeform known as the “Sleepless in the Eternal Cold Tide.”
It was first observed over a decade ago and was subsequently forcibly sealed by a coalition of parties.
It occasionally acted up from ti to ti, but never as intensely as during this period…
“Sleepless, huh? I’ll let it ‘sleep’ forever soon enough…”
Colin nodded, displaying trendous confidence—the aura felt at most like a Level 2 Containnt Subject, and although it was a bit troubleso, if necessary, he could kill it…
But…
A Level 2 Containnt Subject, dangerous as it is, would not warrant the company sending him directly to deal with it.
And the request seed sowhat biased towards sealing a certain area, rather than killing a creature.
Which suggested there might be sothing special inside.
“There must be so more troubleso things. Have you been to the deepest part?”
“Sothing more troubleso?” Mr. Chang was taken aback, but then, recalling so information, realized what the other might be saying could be true.
There had always been talk that the “Sleepless” in the cold tide seed to be guarding sothing.
“I have been there, and if you need, I can show you the way…”
“That will do.”
Colin nodded and then glanced over the man standing behind him.
“I can hardly hold on any longer, you guys don’t have to bother, this ice spike isn’t easy to dissolve, even for Ninth Level Personnel…”
The pale-skinned muscular man responded in English, but before finishing, he saw a Tree of Fla appear next to the man who seed to hail from the sa country as his base commander, and its extensive roots enveloped him…
In less than a minute, the deadly wound he thought was sure to kill him was mostly healed.
“Just a minor flesh wound, no near-death about it.”
Colin shook his head, recalled the Fire Tree and threw out so healing items and a “Colorless Crystal”: “If you have ti, you can help others around, I won’t be going.”
After a pause, Colin turned to the Sixth Level Official Personnel beside him: “Right, you seed to have sothing to tell him? I’ll give you three minutes, I’ll wait for you outside…”
With that, he walked out.
It was after he left that the atmosphere beca eerie all of a sudden.
So things, previously thought to be death sentences, were already spoken.
Now…
If they all survive, the situation becos sowhat awkward.
“You…”
“No need to say anything, I don’t quite understand your thinking, and I can’t give you any response.”
Mr. Chang pursed his lips and then, with a calm tone, shook his head and said:
“But damn it, I probably would never go to a sauna with you again, even if I were beaten to death.”
With that, he turned and left.
…
Half an hour later, Colin, leading the Sixth Level Official Personnel, passed through the dimly lit land of ice and snow to reach the depths of this secret area and saw a great number of chanical towers standing tall…
Each connecting into a chain, resembling so sort of isolation wall, suppressing the mysterious forces of the site.
In addition, there were nurous shattered Ghost Ships destroyed there…
To suppress the anomalies, many personnel fell here, including an Eighth Level Personnel.
Yet, on the ground, at most, one could sense scattered, white skeletons devoid of any flesh or blood.
‘It’s a pity that unless the ‘Red Moon’ descends, there’s little chance of bringing them back to life,’ Colin thought to himself, shaking his head internally, and looked ahead.
There stood a towering black mountain range, covered in snow and ice…
From above, there was an indescribable sense of madness wafting down.
Accompanied by the eerie, wailing winds…
