Chapter 264: Chapter 262 “Celestial Observation Society” _3 Chapter 264: Chapter 262 “Celestial Observation Society” _3 This time, to avoid drawing attention, Colin used the “Emblem of the Humility Knight” and held his breath all the way home.

“This thing, I’m not sure how useful it is in actual combat, but it’s certainly handy for everyday use.”

Colin put away the badge, took a deep breath, then lay back on the bed, resting while pondering other matters.

“Old Master Wu hasn’t replied yet, so after returning from ‘World Code-13’ on Monday, the day after, it will be just right to inject the third potion and start the next promotion mission…”

“I already have one D Level Potion, the remaining two exchanges shouldn’t be difficult, with official help at that time, promotion will be even easier. If all goes well, I might have a chance to be promoted to C Level in a month…”

“With Lady Bunny’s protection and escort, there shouldn’t be a problem…”

As thoughts flashed through his mind, just as Colin was getting his things in order and preparing to rest, a cellphone ringtone sounded.

He reached for his phone and took a look; it was a message from Qin Chuan.

To be more precise, it was a detailed report on the background of the event.

About ten minutes later, having understood the contents, Colin unraveled quite a few doubts—this school really wasn’t very proper.

At the time of the incident, the school’s leadership “happened” to be abroad, but subsequent investigations revealed they were related to a power overseas named the “Celestial Observation Society.”

It seemed they had been covertly cultivating something for many years, their methods secret and unnoticed.

But recently, there had been some accidents…

According to the investigation, not long ago, a girl under surveillance accidentally came into contact with some bizarre paint that “escaped” from the principal’s office and immediately turned into an obsessed slave, frantically trying to depict a certain starry sky scene.

By the time the school’s leadership discovered the incident, it was too late to cover up. The authorities had taken notice, so their choice was clear—flee.

“This… what an undeserved disaster.”

Colin sighed. Truly ordinary people are fragile and powerless in the face of the abnormal.

Then, he looked up the “Celestial Observation Society” and found that these people… seemed to be listed as targets to be expelled or even eradicated in most countries.

At first, it was just an ordinary civilian organization, but from who knows when, some of them received overwhelming yet mind-corrupting powers from above the stars, and everything changed.

They held more and more bloody rituals, praying to the stars, seeking twisted power.

But to say they were entirely a cult…

Was not entirely the case, because these people also dealt with abnormal events and had some inexplicable sense of mission, believing themselves to be the saviors of the world.

“Saviors, huh? These people really should let the ‘Human Patchwork Monster’ summon them to the Other World for a lesson…”

Colin shook his head, not dwelling on these matters anymore. Since the regional issue was resolved and the other party had fled, it was unlikely they would have much interaction in the short term.

Soon after, Colin closed his eyes and began his rest.

For the next two days, the city was peaceful, and he had a rare chance to experience a couple of days of leisure before preparing for Monday’s relief work, and then quietly waiting.

…

At the same time, Wang Haiwei returned home, feeling extremely dejected, as he had received the news that his girlfriend, Chen Wei, had died in a car accident.

“Why, why did you have to leave me…”

The more he recalled his girlfriend’s voice and smile, the more he felt despair and couldn’t help but think of going to the rooftop.

But it was at that moment…

In a shadow he didn’t notice, the eerie shape of a rat’s shadow flitted by and slipped into his own shadow.

Immediately after, a voice suddenly emerged in his mind.

“Ding.”

“System activated.”

“Do you confirm you want to accept the System’s offer and start a new life?”

“Note: You will learn the real secret behind your girlfriend’s death, and you will also have the power to bring her back to life!”
