Chapter 450: 393 Chapter “The Light Chaser” Turns Out to Be a Female?!_2 Chapter 450: 393 Chapter “The Light Chaser” Turns Out to Be a Female?!_2 “But based on your abilities, I think you can try to combine your consciousness with your flames to achieve this, through it, to perceive the world, what it brings you is not just strength, but it can also become your eyes…”

“I’ve observed a bit, and you should be able to do this step, so for our next lesson, let’s start with you perceiving your surroundings through fire perception.”

Shana explained simply, planning to start with the aspect of “vision”.

During their previous exchange, she had confirmed that when she was under the light of the fire, the other party had some perception, although they wouldn’t launch an attack based solely on that perception unless they saw with their own eyes, even if just to test…

This made Colin’s chances of beating her at the same level become extremely slim; at best he could only ensure he wouldn’t lose in a short time.

From this, she could roughly tell that the other party hadn’t developed too deeply in this area.

But that wasn’t a problem.

The other party was now in a situation where a casual remark could lead to an epiphany…

After further coaching for a while, Colin suddenly felt as though he had pierced through a layer of sandpaper; within the range touched by the surrounding flames, he could see everything crisp and clear, and his field of vision instantly broadened!

It was as if a small knife had suddenly opened an eye on his buttocks!

Even with his eyes tightly shut, as long as the flames were kindled, everything around him would be projected into his mind in a special way.

At this moment, Colin felt a sense of “wherever the Bonfire radiates, it’s as if seen by the naked eye.”

And compared to what was seen by his vision, this perception seemed even more comprehensive…

“Learned another key skill, but come to think of it, I had noticed it before but really kind of neglected it, hmm, I have to name my new passive…”

Colin, feeling that his tuition fees were well spent, gave a name to the passive skill he had just understood.

Let’s call it “Killing Intent Fluctuation”…

No, it’s called “Flame Perception”.

Unadorned and simple.

But upon carefully observing through “Flame Perception”, Colin quickly noticed that in various corners, there were still a few “Light Chasers” copies present.

This time, he would finally not become passive because of blind spots in his vision!

But before he could feel happy, Colin observing the other party suddenly sensed something was off…

‘Why do I feel… it’s a female?’ Colin felt weird.

Something was amiss…

Another look—

It seemed to be really a female?

Within the “Bonfire Vision”, the blurry glowing figures were still not clear, but compared to what was seen by the naked eye, one could generally make out the outline of a lean and slender woman…

‘This…’

Colin was taken aback; in his memory, “The Light Chaser” was supposed to be a bulky man.

He hadn’t expected it to be a woman…

This felt like when a guy you often chat with online, whom you thought was a foot-scratching big dude, turns out to be a beautiful young girl when you meet offline one day!

But before he could think any further, the “The Light Chaser” spoke up again, with a voice still neutral and indistinguishable as male or female:

“It seems you should be able to initially grasp this way of observation. Next, we will use this as a basis to gradually expand other areas of enhancement…”

“But let’s stop here for today’s training. I am currently connecting through Vanessa, and if we continue, it will be hard on her…”

“Tomorrow I need to make some preparations, so I will probably come again the night after tomorrow.”

“Oh, okay…” Colin nodded blankly, then dispelled the effect of the “Shield of Fairness Adjudication”.

Afterward, the figure of “The Light Chaser” instantly disintegrated and disappeared…

Simultaneously, not far away, Nun Vanessa of the “Light” lay on the ground slowly opening her eyes, feeling fatigue in her body as if her limbs had fallen apart, she couldn’t help but inhale sharply, muttering a complaint under her breath.

Although there was some distance, Colin still heard her words.

“Ouch, why do I feel, exhausted a bit too much, this time it seems to have lasted long, what did the boss do this time…”

No big deal, just borrowed your body for a fight… Colin mumbled to himself.

Then he reached into the Bonfire, pulled out a “Colorless Crystal” and tossed it to Vanessa, and then helped to relieve her fatigue with the light of the flames…

“Thank you, Lord,” feeling the warmth of the flames, Vanessa sat on the ground, graciously thanked him.

“By the way, I have some questions I want to understand; may I inquire, among the higher echelons of your ‘Light’ religion, how many are female members?” Colin asked casually, as if making small talk.

And hearing Colin’s question, Vanessa suddenly became alert, then as if thinking of something, a look of wisdom appeared on her typically simple face:

“Are you asking who just came over?”

“””

“Uh…” Colin hesitated, then smiled, nodding in confirmation.

Actually, at this moment, he had some speculations, but he wasn’t quite sure.

“If I tell you this, can you reward me with a bag of White Rabbit Creamy Candies?” Vanessa asked expectantly.

Are you selling out your people for a bag of candy?

“No problem.”

Colin took out a bag of candy from his pocket and handed it over.

Having received the desired reward, Vanessa did not hide anything and directly said, “The one who just came over is His Holiness the Saint…”

Only His Holiness the Saint could have come down through the nun, and even if Colin didn’t ask her, asking someone else would have quickly clarified it.

This was a basic fact that almost everyone knew.

So Vanessa didn’t feel at all like she had betrayed her faith…

“His Holiness the Saint…” Colin murmured, now able to confirm his correct guess through this.

The “Light” doesn’t have any mechanism like a Grand Elder or Supreme Elder, and the only ones who can be publicly addressed as “Your Holiness” are the Pope and the Saint…

Since the prefix wasn’t Pope, but Saint, it was almost like a clear signal.

As far as he knew, within the church, the term Saint commonly referred to either the Saint Heir or the Saintess…

And this generation’s Saint was a female…

That is to say, the so-called living saint who walked upon the Earth, who didn’t seem to do much but somehow inexplicably snatched away a portion of his faith’s power: the “Light” church’s Saintess Shana.

Even now, Colin could occasionally hear his believers on his Bonfire Territory thanking her.

The key was that while thanking her, their faith in the Bonfire remained incredibly pure…

Apart from “loyalty,” Colin had no idea how else to describe it.

“However, come to think of it, I didn’t expect this existence to actually be an employee of the ‘Bonfire Company,’ tsk, no wonder her strength is so fierce…”

Recalling her achievements, Colin suddenly felt relieved.

It’s just that I wonder why, with such strength, she seemed to have been stuck at F Level for quite a while.

Could she too be trapped by an Out-of-Control Copy?

“‘Passionate Paradise’ was not long ago fully staffed, so it’s probably not that, which makes it seem, if she’s stuck on an Out-of-Control Copy, it’s likely the other F Level copy: ‘Lightless Zone’?”

Colin pondered thoughtfully.

He felt that with her strength, if she really was stuck on a copy, it wasn’t that she couldn’t complete it, but rather there weren’t enough people.

Moreover, from the fact that he could see through her light and shadow…

Colin guessed that “The Light Chaser” probably hadn’t made much effort to hide herself, otherwise, he likely wouldn’t have been able to see her at all.

“Employees on Earth hide themselves because they are afraid of being located offline or something, Lady Bunny once said that if I reach D Level, I can arrange offline fights…”

“Of course, the opponent can’t be a mindless robot, and in this world, it seems only she gets to find someone’s real location, not the other way around…”

Shaking his head, Colin didn’t dwell on it too much, anyway, there would be opportunities to learn more about these things in the future.

Afterward, he walked out of the church and slowly closed his eyes.

Yet despite his eyes being closed, his brain “saw” even more.

Under Flame Perception, he could clearly understand which guys were not working diligently and slacking off in the middle of the night, and which ones were earnestly and diligently working…

“Very good, most of them are working hard.”

Colin felt relieved and then joined in to supervise and encourage everyone to work hard.

After all, how diligently the employees worked would affect his rating for this mission.

And the current state of his territory was still a bit too rural…

He needed to speed up the development of basic infrastructure to ensure every refugee could move into a new home…

In the following days, a group of employees suddenly realized something.

Even those with supernatural bodies could collapse on the road to overwork…

The tasks seemed never-ending, just as they managed to settle thousands of people and thought they would catch a breath, suddenly tens of thousands more arrived…

The work… seemed endless at a glance.

Under Colin’s leadership, all employees buckled down and also came to realize one thing.

As it turned out, Brother Shunzi is the real danger when there’s no danger around.
