Chapter 196: Chapter 196 Enchantment Fusion_1 Chapter 196: Chapter 196 Enchantment Fusion_1 “I arrive only to witness an event unfolding…”

Colin’s body was hidden beside a ruined clay house, and he clearly heard the refugees’ planning. If nothing unexpected happened, Lin Yilan was probably lying inside the room, her soul residing in the body of a woman named Thaiveil.

Obviously, considering the “Bonfire Company” only allowed for “Soul Transference” into a corpse.

That woman’s original body must be dead…

“This is still the first one to start off finding a body with an identity; the rest are refugees or refugees.”

Colin pursed his lips and quietly pulled out the “Revolver Contrarian” from his pocket. Using a firearm was evidently a good choice against these ordinary people.

And now he didn’t need to worry about the bullets because, after coming out of “Passionate Paradise” last time, he had spent over three thousand points and a Gold Mission Voucher to repair this revolver.

At this moment, its integrity had reached nineteen percent.

Furthermore, it had acquired a special ability—”Air Compression Bullet.”

The bullet’s effective range was fifty meters, with power equivalent to that of a regular bullet…

As for how many rounds he could shoot, that depended on Colin’s lung capacity because before firing, he needed to take a deep breath to use this special firearm skill.

He had tested it himself; one breath could last for about five to seven shots.

However, just as he was about to make his move, he suddenly noticed a prompt on his “Revolver Contrarian.”

[Prompt: One thousand Bonfire Points + “Ring of Flame Dominance” can be used at “Bonfire Sacrificial Ground” for enchantment synthesis of this item.]

“Enchantment synthesis?”

Colin was momentarily stunned; this was his first time learning about this function of the “Bonfire Sacrificial Ground.”

But before he could think more about it, the people inside the cabin seemed to have finally reached an agreement. Seven or eight individuals emerged from the cabin and headed straight toward Sister Vanessa, not realizing that their conversation had been overheard through the wall just moments ago.

A faint sound of metal friction reached his ears—the Warden’s nephew seemed ready to take action…

“Wait for a moment.”

Colin sniffed, noticing that apart from these people, there appeared to be some other characters with ill intentions nearby.

These characters were releasing a faint fragrance…

‘Damn it, the moment I heard the tasting reference, I sensed something was off; it must be those “The Glutton” followers…’

Colin frowned; he couldn’t precisely locate the cultists by their scent, which was a bit troublesome.

In all fairness, he wasn’t particularly keen on meddling in other people’s business.

But when it came to matters related to “The Glutton,” it was a case of killing one whenever you encounter one!

Otherwise, who knows if they would catch you off-guard with something big, just like before…

“The nun is in danger. Aren’t we going to go up directly?” asked the Warden’s nephew, his hand on the hilt of his sword, slightly puzzled; he hadn’t smelled any fragrance.

“There’s something else, don’t rush, move stealthily.”

Colin motioned with his hand to signal his companions to follow, then trailed behind the traitorous servants.

At the same time, he informed Lin Yilan through the internal channels of the Bonfire Company to lie still and not move.

In just a few steps, Colin saw the group arrive at the door of the nun, knocking on it. First, there came some faint noises from behind the door, then it was pulled open.

There stood Nun Vanessa, with wheat-colored skin, brown hair, blue eyes, gentle facial features, not stunning but fairly pleasant to look at, dressed in the plain white garb of the Church, exuding a mild temperament.

At this moment, her complexion was abnormally pale, making her appear somewhat frail.

“You…” Sister Vanessa looked at the group outside the door, about to say something, when she suddenly saw someone raise an axe towards her head.

And from the front, several people pulled out brightly polished knives and stabbed directly at her.

Quite decisive… Colin also at the same moment drew his gun, ready to rescue Sister Vanessa first…

Bang, bang, bang—

With a few muffled sounds, several servants flew out from the doorway and fell to the ground.

Colin was taken aback because he hadn’t fired his gun yet, but these people had already fallen.

What surprised him even more was that Nun Vanessa, who he thought was so frail, suddenly burst out with incredible speed, knocking out and stunning each attacker with one punch.

Not only that but the most threatening one, the servant with the axe, was now being lifted by the neck with one hand by her.

The situation had swiftly reversed in a matter of seconds.

Colin and the trainee knights at his side were completely stunned.

“Spare me, please spare me…” The servant, hanging midair, pleaded in panic.

“Sorry, forgive me for not realizing in time that you had lost your way. May the Light guide your soul to His kingdom.”

Nun Vanessa’s blue eyes shimmered with white light as she sighed.

The minds of the others present were not completely corrupted yet, so she merely knocked them out with her punches. However, this one person’s mind was utterly enveloped, beyond any chance of salvation.

Then, she clenched her fingers, and the next second, the sound of crushed bones echoed through the air, and the servant’s head drooped lifelessly…

“That’s some strength,”

Colin pondered, his heart skipping a beat. He watched as she nonchalantly dropped the corpse in her hand, her gaze shifting, taking a glance in their direction as if she had spotted them.

Despite seemingly detecting their whereabouts, she did not approach. Instead, she retracted her gaze and sprinted towards another direction like a nimble leopardess.

Where was the sign of any weakness in her movements?

“Damn it!” someone cursed suddenly from that spot, hastily responding to the attack. But they had barely managed to raise a wand for defense before it was smashed to pieces by Vanessa’s punch.

“I knew she was faking it! She wasn’t injured at all! She’s not as frail as she seems! Damn this ‘Church of Light’ bitch, they love to play these games every day—”

Several locals, dressed in robes that looked indecently like cassocks, screamed out loud.

However, before they could finish their swearing, a glowing fist hammered down, the sound of breaking bones silencing their shrieks.

“Hiss… So she was pretending after all? Another fishing tactic? Do people in this damned place love to fish this much…”

Colin watched speechlessly. He had truly believed that the nun had sustained serious injuries, but now it seemed even if she had been hurt, there was no need for her to rush to such a remote room…

Thinking about it now, it was likely a ruse to give these people a “chance to plot.”

In less than a minute, the battle was over. Colin saw her hands emitting light, her punches leaving no quarter as she effortlessly hammered the “The Glutton” believers to death.

The believers did not lack resistance, but all their methods became ineffective upon touching the white light, as if suppressed.

“That light looks familiar…”

Colin squinted his eyes, sensing that by nature, it was almost identical to “The Light Chaser,” yet he was not entirely sure.

Because “The Light Chaser” was far stronger than the one before him…

“Wait, that’s not right, ‘World Code -13’ currently only has me in operation. Besides that, only Lady Bunny’s First Legion was briefly active, but they left quickly… Why would someone bypass me to command this world’s power?”

Colin’s brow suddenly furrowed as he realized something, could “The Light Chaser” be from this world?

The thought wasn’t impossible.

After all, the former employee had been active here, who knows if he left anything behind?

“Right, ‘The Light Chaser’ seemed to have first appeared at ‘Passionate Paradise,’ exactly when the First Legion arrived in this world, could it be someone newly recruited by Lady Bunny at that time?”

Colin had his theories, but he wasn’t certain.

At that moment, a person clad in a red grid-like cassock charged towards them, his muscles writhing, a look of horror on his face as he tried to escape from this direction.

That woman was too terrifying, one punch after another, no one could withstand her.

However, he only got halfway when he spotted Colin and the others nearby.

“Get out of the way!” His face was ferocious, his mouth gaping wide like a fish, and he lunged at Colin, attempting to take a bite.

Facing a maw that could swallow a head whole, Colin kept his hands in his pockets, expressionless. He merely twitched his hands a little inside his pockets—

A powerful repulsion was suddenly applied to the opponent, flinging him through the air in an arc before he brutally smashed into the ground, dying instantly on impact.

“What happened?”

The Warden’s nephew, who had just drawn his sword, was startled. They hadn’t even seen Colin make a move, nor felt any magic burst.

Watching Colin, hands still in pockets, not surprised in the slightest, they found him increasingly mysterious…

And it was at that moment that Vanessa returned. This time she walked straight towards them, and behind her, the “The Glutton” believers lay in twisted positions, the scene shockingly impactful.

Obviously, they had all been sent to “Heaven” by her little fists.

After some thought, Colin decided not to hide. He stood up openly—not because he was afraid of her, but because there was no need for any conflict between them.

Moreover, if that “The Light Chaser” was really a local and affiliated with the nun’s group, then it was certainly necessary to establish good relations.

“You all…”

Vanessa saw Colin and the others appear without surprise, but before she could finish her sentence, her wheat-colored skin turned white in an instant, and she staggered, bending over to cough a few times against her will.

Her hand covering her mouth, blood seeped through between her fingers…
