Chapter 478: Chapter 407: The Terrifying Golden Out-of-Control Artifact!_1 Chapter 478: Chapter 407: The Terrifying Golden Out-of-Control Artifact!_1 ‘It’s strange, the air is filled with an unusual aura, as if monsters are everywhere, but other than the black fog, no living creatures can be seen, not even anomalies. Could it be that everything has already died?’

‘Without a clear investigation target, this is pretty annoying…’

Colin’s brow slightly furrowed as he observed his surroundings while moving forward. Fortunately, since his investigative mission only required him to delve deep enough, there was no need to rush.

Afterward, approximately every thousand meters, another “T” shaped intersection would appear in the corridor.

Besides that, no other entities were encountered.

This place was like an extremely special, large labyrinth.

“Clang clang.”

Colin stamped forcefully on the ground twice, flames attached to his body, trying to directly melt a downward path.

Regrettably, the metal material here was unknown, and even when he intensified his efforts, it only glowed red hot.

To think he could burn through it was somewhat of a fool’s dream.

However, it was at this time a series of rapid footsteps suddenly came from behind.

It seemed something had finally appeared.

“Alert!”

Colin flicked his hand, and the ring on his ring finger immediately transformed, becoming a delicate revolver that he grasped, then watched vigilantly in that direction, not daring to be the slightest bit careless…

Just now, they had traversed that same road without seeing anything.

Yet suddenly there were footsteps…

It seemed as if something had appeared in an incomprehensible way!

No sooner had everyone assumed a defensive posture than a group of bizarre-looking, leather-clad humanoid creatures rushed out from a thousand meters away at the bend in the road.

Despite seeing them for the first time, Colin recognized their essence from the unique energy emanating from them.

“Demons or some such creatures? There sure are a lot of them…”

Colin muttered to himself.

However, the black fog here seemed to have little to do with them…

In other words, these demons were likely responding to a “distress signal,” intending to come here for revenge, but ended up as one of the victims caught in an ambush.

At this moment, their original target did not seem to be Colin and the others but rather something else in a different location.

Yet upon noticing them, their eyes lit up…

“Such a weak aura, are they solitary administrative personnel?!”

“Perfect, kill them!”

“Top up our blood food, then leave this damned place and die to return!”

“Hurry up, or those things below will catch up!”

The various oddly shaped demons quickly made a decision after a brief exchange and set upon Colin and his companions.

One particularly ferocious Heretic Demon, wielding a longsword that radiated a green light, moved very fast, speeding toward them like a cheetah. The distance of over a thousand meters could be covered in just a few seconds…

It was at this moment that the demon realized those guys seemed to have just reacted, hastily making defensive preparations.

This speed, compared to the legion members they had previously encountered, was not in the same league—

And indeed, it was the level of non-combat personnel!

More amusing was that the man in the middle actually aimed at him with what looked like an antique revolver from some bygone era.

The bullets from such a weapon could hardly outpace its speed!

If it were a standard gauss weapon, it might choose to back off, but for just a small handgun…

“Too weak! Let me show you what speed as power means!”

The Lightsaber-wielding demon roared, doubling its speed once again and completely surpassing the speed of sound!

However, just as it was about to reach them, a voice from other demons echoed in its mind.

“Damn it, be careful, there’s something off about this guy, watch out for that handgun!”

“Not… right?”

The thought had just arisen in the Lightsaber-bearing demon’s mind when it abruptly felt a strong sense of crisis. Following this, as it moved at high speed, it suddenly noticed that the other party had already pulled the trigger, and from the muzzle flashing with firelight, a seemingly normal bullet was fired out.

Upon its exit, the bullet rapidly enlarged, cloaked in a layer of frightening flames, and sped toward it even faster…

Bang!

A mass of red gore exploded ahead.

A large number of intestines scattered like dropped spaghetti on the ground…

“That scared me, it’s just this?”

Colin pursed his lips, having just seen the other party charge at them with such momentum, he thought it was some powerful enemy. Instead, it turned out to be the kind that dies after one shot.

Meanwhile, more than a dozen demons were shocked.

“Damn it! That guy was still too young, he didn’t know this is a ‘skin’ weapon, it’s unbeatable!”

“Split up!”

Compared to that young demon, some of the older demons, upon seeing the revolver in Colin’s hand and the flames on his body, almost didn’t need to think due to a fear deep in their bones. They didn’t mourn for a moment and turned tail to run.

“Since you’re here, don’t think of leaving.”

Colin’s flames surged as he finally found someone who could give him information about this place. How could he let them go so easily?

Lucky for him, there was only one of that type capable of breaking the sound barrier.

Soon, Colin effortlessly captured all the demons he could catch and locked them together. As for those he didn’t catch, they were turned into a spread of tomato sauce on the ground.

Just as he was preparing to start interrogating them for information about the place, a mission prompt appeared.

“Next step in the mission already? I haven’t even started questioning yet…”

Colin murmured, unfazed, as he summoned the specific details of the mission in his mind while contemplating how to extract information from the group of demon creatures…
