A clouded white breath slowly exhaled.

As the pain on his body quickly subsided,

Colin finally felt much better.

In the past, when he fought with C Level Elder Brothers, his head was either explosively bashed by a punch or chopped off by a blade; his usual deaths were quite straightforward – no pain, certainly not as wretched as this time…

“This time I’ve reached a new height–I can break through his defense with my own methods now.”

“If I’m lucky, after breaking through his defense and combining various tools, a needle stabbed into a weak spot could mean that I, during a normal outburst, also have the chance to defeat him…”

“Unfortunately, the characters in the copy are nevertheless just characters in a copy, although the imitation has been very successful, there’s still something missing; it seems as though every aspect is slightly deficient.”

Colin couldn’t help but sigh; he figured that once he became a little more familiar with his powers and techniques,

he should be able to break through this copy…

Although beating the opponent would require using a lot of equipment, and comparably speaking, there was a sense it was somewhat an unfair victory over a C Level Elder Brother, but it was also the C Level Elder Brother who had said,

the use and mastery of tools is also a part of one’s own strength…

No one would be foolish enough, when confronting a tiger or a lion face to face, to throw away the gun in their hands and compare something like “physical strength” with the opponent…

Such people in the company, if not on the front line, would be fine.

But if they’re on the front line, most likely they wouldn’t survive three missions before dying a violent death…

After sitting for a while longer, Colin took a shower, dried off, then returned to his room and fell asleep.

Though his body wasn’t particularly tired, there was still a slight mental fatigue.

The night quickly passed…

The next morning, right after Colin finished a bowl of braised Large Intestine with roast goose Shahe fen, he saw Qin Chuan and others’ car parked on the side.

“Sigh…”

He drank down the soup, wiped his mouth with a tissue, and stood up to walk over.

“Speaking of which, with my current identity, continuing to live in a densely populated district doesn’t seem quite appropriate; I need to find a new place. Ah, to experience what it’s like to live in Big Haus? The only issue with moving is that I wouldn’t be able to eat this kind of breakfast anymore…”

Colin looked at Fuji Pork Knuckle Rice Restaurant, which had been open for many years offering breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with considerable reluctance.

Though with his abilities, it would be no problem to take them along and provide for them as they moved.

But, that unspoken feeling seemed a bit too much.

“Today we’re heading to… Base No. 5?” Qin Chuan bought the bill and then came over to ask.

“Right.”

Colin nodded and, while walking towards the car parked on the roadside, he said,

“It shouldn’t take too long; if nothing else comes up these next few days, I’m fairly free until at least the 10th and can take you guys to clear out the surrounding area.”

Qin Chuan’s eyes lit up as he quickly replied, “Great, no problem.”

Although, with Colin there, clearing the surrounding anomalies, if he didn’t deliberately preserve them, the whole process was like going for a stroll, with little participation, but correspondingly, their lives were virtually worry-free…

And most crucially, even though they might be not working too hard, the rewards were indeed going to be issued.

At this moment, he couldn’t help but look at Hu Zheng lying in the car, feeling a bit of regret.

How good it would have been to choose “Fate Propeller” back then…

With “Fate Propeller,” he could be working towards Level 5 right now, instead of just creeping from Level 3 towards 4.

Colin, walking in front, was unaware of their thoughts. He opened the car door, got in, and they had a smooth ride. About an hour later, the vehicle left the city and stopped in a secluded area.

Colin alighted alone and, after a few simple checks, boarded a helicopter.

Qin Chuan and the others waited there…

Shortly after, when Colin arrived at the periphery of Base Number Five, he immediately felt that the atmosphere was much more severe.

A large number of fully armed soldiers with some extraordinary power enhancements patrolled everywhere.

“The forces guarding this time have increased a lot compared to before,”

Standing below, Colin sensed around and couldn’t help but narrow his eyes.

Compared to before, he could actually sense the presence of four Eighth Level Personnel in this area.

“Heh, to ensure the smooth progress of the transaction, we’ve pulled two high-level combat personnel from nearby provinces to protect this place,” a familiar voice that was somewhat aged came from the side.

Colin turned to look and saw Xu Duojin appearing out of nowhere, like a ghost.

However, Colin was not unfamiliar with this ability of the other party: “It’s evident you’ve taken this very seriously this time.”

Although, with his strength, Eighth Level Personnel… weren’t really a significant help anymore.

But having them is always better than not.

“Of course, otherwise if we have a repeat of the last incident, we really can’t afford it; after all, what we’re bringing out this time includes many mechanism creatures that are very troublesome to deal with; if they escape, they’re hard to recover. Haha, at the necessary moment, Old Master Wu’s gaze will be upon us,”

Xu Duojin laughed and then made a gesture, indicating to follow.

Old Master Wu, huh… Colin thought, and walked over.

Meanwhile, he couldn’t help but sense the aura of the Eighth Level Personnel discreetly and, based on what he knew, he re-compared the strength of official Eighth Level Personnel and the company’s personnel—

It was certain that these people were stronger than most of the company’s D Level Personnel listed on paper, but they were clearly a big step weaker than C Level Personnel.

Even the few C Level Personnel who seemed to be in “civilian” roles in the starship elevator at that time were much stronger than them.

After some quick calculations…
