Chapter 598: Chapter 456 The “Radiant Angel” Corps Intervenes. _2 Chapter 598: Chapter 456 The “Radiant Angel” Corps Intervenes. _2 Hearing Shana’s words, Colin ultimately chose to cooperate and halted his actions.

Meanwhile, the Saintess broke free from his embrace, landed on the ground, closed her eyes, and seemed to be connecting with something…

Colin manipulated flames to protect her so tightly that not a breath of air could get through.

At the same time, following behind him, a mass of shadow caught up first. It landed and initially transformed into a group of silhouettes of people, then these silhouettes stretched and interweaved with each other, forming a Shadow Tree covered with eyes…

Following this, a cluster of clouds flickering with lightning appeared, with vague figures looming behind the heavy Dark Clouds.

For the moment, they pursued him but did not act immediately, as if cautious.

After all, the other side clearly still had some strength left; there was no reason for them to stop.

“Could this place be a trap?” someone began to doubt.

“Impossible! Absolutely not! The Saintess has been fighting up to this point, and she’s at her limit. Are you questioning the content of the ‘God Revelation’?”

“…”

A kilometer away, across from them, Colin and these adversaries faced each other across the gap.

‘According to the “Saintess,” before she even entered the Golden City, she had already sensed dangers different from other places, but she still stepped in, not just to save people but also because…’

‘Here, some powerful legacies left by the “Holy Light Court” can be activated…’

‘And this serious injury is a crisis, but also an opportunity to solve some troubles. She had long wanted to deal with those shadowing her, especially this entity called “0-09 Hunger,” but there never seemed to be a suitable opportunity…’

Recalling Shana’s words, Colin suddenly felt that this tactic seemed familiar—

Wasn’t this… just like fishing?

Not long ago, back on Earth, Colin had given the global cults a major blow through the “Starlight Maiden.”

Unexpectedly, Shana seemed to be planning something similar here.

Everyone knows that the Saintess is kind-hearted and willing to step into traps for the sake of mortals.

But probably few people would realize that she would use her own kindness to plot a massacre…

However, compared to Colin’s nearly foolproof baiting strategy, which had the backing of Earth’s official forces, Shana was taking a big risk here as she was like an orphan with no one to help, with teammates who were not contributing, risking her life to play the tank.

Even if successful, she would still genuinely suffer significant injuries, and it could even be worse…

But… Colin’s arrival was unexpectedly within her calculations, and because of Colin, many of the suspicious enemies had been drawn out, with more and more “fish” entering the big net…

Besides worrying about Colin’s success, there was another reason—

If the Saintess, who has been without teammates for a lifetime, needed rescue, could this still be faked?

Meanwhile, as more enemies arrived, some beings would not stand by and watch; they began to attack, but all were blocked by Colin.

‘I don’t know how powerful these so-called “Holy Light Court” legacies are to make her so confident,’ Colin thought.

While fending off a strange curse attack from behind a bronze door with one hand, he pondered.

Present were not only “Hunger,” a man-made “Level ‘0’” Containment Subject, but also roughly ten Heretic Believers dispatched by the other First Level Containment Subject entities. Unlike Earth, it was unclear whether it was due to better mystical signals here or some other reason…

The power that strong beings could send down was far superior to Earth’s.

However, as various Heretic Forces launched attacks sporadically and while also protecting Shana from harm, Colin had no spare energy to ponder further.

The surrounding enemies seemed to realize something, and the intensity of their attacks rapidly increased.

Even within the layers of Bonfire defenses, Colin’s hairstyle was struck into an explosive-looking style, and he suffered multiple injuries.

But just as he felt increasingly strained, he suddenly heard Shana’s voice in his ear:

“It’s ready.”

Ready?

Just as Colin was about to say something, he suddenly saw something appear on his retina.

[Receipt of the report from ‘Bonfire Company-24-Code 774311,’ ‘The Light Chaser’…]

[“World Code-13-01 Area” defense system has been activated, investigation underway… Warning!]

[Warning! You have entered the ‘No. 1 Special Containment Subject Nature Reserve,’ please leave immediately, otherwise… You have now obtained a pass…]

The explanation changed from red to normal, seemingly granted authorization by Shana.

But Colin was still confused, “Eh? A report?”

He scratched the back of his head, feeling that the term didn’t quite match the big move Shana had mentioned…

And the words that followed sounded equally odd.

“Nature Reserve? Special Containment Subject… Natural ecology?”

Then soon, as more information emerged, Colin finally understood why Shana had such confidence…

Because in the next second.

[Detection of multiple unauthorised high-risk lifeforms illegally entering!]

[“1-773” ‘Shadow Tree of Eyes,’ “1-774” ‘King of Madness,’ “1-779” ‘Substanceless Worm,’ “1-801” ‘Deep Sea Thundercloud’…]

[Detected Level ‘0’ entity presence… ‘0-09’ “Hunger”!]

[Attempting to connect with executor…]

[Danger! Danger! Danger! The containment subject has no executor, confirmed to be in a state of loss of control!]

[About to initiate highest alert status!]

[Sending ‘Containment Protocol’ usage instructions to ‘Bonfire,’ requesting activation of ‘0-11’ Wall, to ensure smooth operation…]

[Sending ‘Bonfire Protocol’ usage instructions to ‘Bonfire’….]

[Proceeding…]

[No feedback.]

[Sending request to ‘Seed of Light’…]

[…Corps “Radiant Angel” Second Legion “Angel of Wisdom” rapid response team has received orders, will soon proceed to Area No.1 for suppression operation…]

[Guidance unit: Code 774311…]

…

A mass of information appeared on his retina all at once, making Colin’s brain struggle to catch up.

He heard Shana mention something about mobilizing the “Holy Light Court” reserves.

He had thought it would be some ancient lost array or something similar, but this, this was beyond his initial imagination…

“Wow, are all these first-level containment subjects serial numbers?”

“And this, what’s with no feedback?”

“And, the ‘Radiant Angel’ Second Legion…”

As Colin muttered to himself, he suddenly felt the world brighten up dramatically.

The next second…

From the heavens obscured by thick, dark Magic Fog, thousands of beams of light pierced the clouds like swords…

The sight was spectacular, resembling the legendary Dary’s Garden, no, the Tyndall effect.

At the same time, a beam of bright light descended from the sky, enveloping him and Shana together.

“Damn! It’s a trick—” a heretic believer exclaimed in shock.

Before he could finish, the beam of light began to wriggle strangely, erasing him instantly, but this did not mean the attack was over, as more light penetrated into the beings behind him.

Compared to the initial conflict with the “Zoo” Corps, the mode of battle here seemed more tranquil…

A shadow tried to escape but was pinned to the ground by massive tangible beams of light.

In the sky, clouds flashing with lightning erupted with violent thunderbolts striking the beams of light, but regrettably, more brilliance fell, enveloping it…

However, compared to these, at least more than half of the beams were flying toward a hidden dark blue great hand, and during this process, they transformed into Chains of Light, attempting to bind it.

“These so-called ‘Angels of Wisdom,’ they don’t seem alive…”

Colin squinted his eyes to their smallest, and he didn’t sense even a hint of life force from these beams of light.

It felt more like some kind of robotic mechanical action…

“Hm…” a muffled grunt came through.

Colin was startled, only then realizing he had been negligent in protecting Shana due to his shock at what had just happened, but he soon breathed a sigh of relief. Because of the many abnormalities present, they did not have the capacity to launch an attack on them.

Shana was merely having difficulty sustaining the strain of the guidance.

He immediately stepped forward, reaching out to place his hand on Shana’s shoulder that felt like it was all bone, transferring the “Colorless Crystal” along with some basic BUFFs inherent to a “Flamebearer.”

Shana opened her eyes slightly, looked at him in thanks, and then continued to maintain the guidance.

At the same time, deep within a labyrinth beneath a distant expanse of land, the entity that the “King of Savage Sound” had transformed into was pressing its ear against the ceiling, listening to the commotion outside…

Through his own authority abilities, he could remotely observe the “Flamebearer” reservist above ground with sound waves, vibrations, and other methods…

It’s like watching a spectacle while munching on melon seeds.

In his current trapped situation, he definitely couldn’t help, all he could do was mentally cheer them on from afar…

But as he listened, he suddenly paused, feeling that something was amiss.

“Hmm?”

The next second, a multitude of beams of light penetrated into the Underground Great Labyrinth.
