Chapter 597: Chapter 456 Corps “Radiant Angel” Intervenes. _1 Chapter 597: Chapter 456 Corps “Radiant Angel” Intervenes. _1 With the “Fire God Embodiment” as a barrier, Colin managed to escape the “Hunger” designed “stomach” without any harm.

And completely freed himself from the control of the “Fire God Embodiment”…

“Wooo~”

The massive phantom’s internal flames pulsated, emitting bizarre roars, its figure expanding continuously, indiscriminately striking at all life in its vicinity.

In reality, this phantom had been expanding constantly, and it wasn’t Colin’s intention to do so.

The bigger it gets, doesn’t mean it’s better…

But because of “Hunger’s” interference, he couldn’t fully control it, leading to this situation.

Of course, to those unaware, the ever-expanding embodiment still possessed a considerable deterrent force…

“Finally got out.”

The moment he passed through the “stomach wall,” Colin felt an intense desire to eat diminish rapidly inside him.

The ceaseless murmurs about eating dissipated…

His mind became clear again; he felt like he was entering sage mode, losing any desire for Shana who he was holding in his arms.

Shana, who was in his arms, was equally sensitive; after noticing this change, she also sighed with relief.

After all, even if she could handle the resurrection of that thing,

it was hard to ensure that Colin would remain unharmed in the process.

However, sensing the situation at the scene, she glanced behind her, saw the blue-black barrier disappear after their escape, and then brought her gaze back to Colin’s expression. Pressing her pale lips together, she seemed to have something to say…

But having just escaped death, she felt the atmosphere didn’t quite permit her to speak.

At that moment, thinking she was concerned about the “Hunger” stomach wall, Colin explained, “For a short while, it shouldn’t be able to use the same method, but of course, we still need to guard against some of its unknown abilities…”

He was very clear about some abilities of “Hunger,” but in addition to itself, every fragment of “Hunger” could acquire the abilities of the enemies it consumed, and right now, he had no idea what this fragment had swallowed.

Yet, before he could finish, Colin suddenly felt a wave of weakness wash over him…

Having used various powers just now, now that everything was “quiet” for a few minutes, the negative effects were about to surge.

Those things were quite draining to use.

Seeing this, Shana took the initiative to cast a BUFF to help him negate some of the negative effects.

At the same time, Colin bit into several “Colorless Crystals,” which made him feel somewhat better…

But it was at this time, some consciousness latched on from behind.

“Useless embodiment, can’t even hold them off for half an hour?”

Colin cursed under his breath; of course, he also knew that once that thing was out of control, it would simply kill every life form around in a frenzy, without any particular attempt to block the way.

So it was quite normal for others to avoid it.

“Nevertheless, they’ve managed to catch up even after I ran ahead for over ten minutes. I need to think of a way to improve the long-distance movement methods for my next step…”

Colin recognized his shortcomings.

“Bonfire”-fueled high-speed movement within ordinary battles could be incredibly fast.

But in a high-level battlefield tug-of-war, it was still somewhat lacking.

Colin took a deep breath, intending to have Shana act first and go to the underground labyrinth to find the “King of Madness” while he held the rear, waiting for the pursuers to catch up again.

But then he abandoned the thought.

If the “King of Madness” really had any ideas considering Shana’s current state,

it would be like delivering himself to the doorstep…

With Colin there, he could prevent this, after all, there was a contract.

Even if forced by various enemies not to make a move, they would not necessarily act against him.

‘Sigh, it’ll still be nearly half a day’s distance to get there, and if luck is bad, and he doesn’t help, then the whole trip will be even more troublesome. There are the magic fog spawns, and the high-level containment subjects with attacks from afar, and I guess those Knight Legions and Mage Corps are probably still wandering around the periphery…’

As he raced against time, Colin’s thoughts churned with a bit of a headache.

At this moment, he was like a meteor darting through the mist, while several hidden entities behind him used their own authority and traits to chase after him in various ways…

At this time, Shana, seeing that Colin seemed to have made a decision, used the “Light” to transmit information.

A line of text appeared before Colin’s eyes…

“Let me down.”

As he contemplated how to break through the situation, Colin was startled by this line of text.

“Don’t worry, we’ll both live. If I left you here, what would be the point of my coming in?” Colin responded using the method of “Inspiration.”

Ah, so he really did come specially for her… Shana felt touched.

But…

“No, I’m worried they’ve run off.”

“It’s fine, I… hmm?”

Colin paused, questioning his own eyes while reading the message on his retina.

At that moment, the Saintess raised her head, placing her hand on his shoulder, whispered something into Colin’s ear.

“Can we really counter-attack here? Even find the ‘Hunger’ itself? But your body…”

Colin looked at her with surprise.

Even if Shana was telling the truth, her body might not be capable of doing the things she mentioned.

He could be sure of her current condition; she wasn’t faking it. She really had taken a lot of damage, enough to kill those useless D Level trash from the “Life Mentor Adorable” several times over.

She was able to endure simply through sheer strength…

If she continued to forcefully use her powers, the outcome would not be good.

“Maybe on my own the risk would be great, but with you here, both of us together, it will be much better. Give me ten minutes…”
