Chapter 613: Chapter 463: The Immoral “Firebearer” and the “Subsidiary”._3 Chapter 613: Chapter 463: The Immoral “Firebearer” and the “Subsidiary”._3 Shana seemed to half-understand.

As time slowly passed by, into the latter half of the night, Colin gradually stuffed several pounds of meat into Shana’s mouth amidst their casual conversation. After feeling full and satisfied, their dialogue ended, and Shana returned to the cabin to start her proper rest.

Little Red had also fallen asleep early during the conversation between the two.

Colin sat silently in front of the bonfire, waiting for the next day to arrive.

As far as he could see…

This “dangerous day” seemed not to hold too many surprises.

However, just as he held that thought, Colin suddenly felt something appear beside him.

Immediately afterward, a mission appeared on his retina.

[Event: A Secret Transaction…]

“Requirement”: Hand over “Three Hundred Thousand Points”.

“Reward”: 1. “Containment Divine Kingdom” coordinate anchor and related intelligence, 2. One set of unshaped modules / or a piece of “Holy Remains” / or the current intelligence on “Seed of Light”.

…

Colin’s eyes narrowed as he realized that it was that “branch” showing up.

“Three Hundred Thousand Points? Where would I have that much… Wait, it’s talking about this?” (Note 1:)

Suddenly, Colin remembered something. “Lady Rabbit” had once given him a special letter that contained three hundred thousand points, which were viewable but not usable…

The purpose was to lure out the “branch”.

However, there had been no response for so many days that Colin had almost forgotten about it.

Unexpectedly, it had now suddenly appeared, targeting directly at the “bait”.

“They chose a good time, just when the ‘company’ can’t contact me. It seems they’ve come prepared.”

Thoughts flickered, and Colin’s gaze shifted to the listed rewards.

“Containment Divine Kingdom” coordinate anchor and intelligence…

‘This thing, for me, isn’t of great importance… The other items, choose one of the three?’

‘Modules are useful in that they can be combined with some things, developed into various functions in my office? But it seems the ceiling isn’t high, at most it adds a health bar for enemies, a small function like another map, and not necessarily accurate, or maybe develop it into some sort of automatic response system? Seems quite versatile…’

‘The second option, “Holy Remains”…’

Colin clicked his tongue, as he could tell from the mission’s inspiration that what was offered were the spiritual remains of a “Light” Saint…

Similar to that Bone Spur he had in hand.

He figured if the Saintess knew about this, she might very well tear this “branch” apart.

But thinking about it, he wasn’t sure how clear the ownership of the “Holy Remains” was. If it was clear, then they could have “Lady Rabbit” make it into an item, which would definitely be powerful…

But since it was not explicitly stated above, Colin guessed there might be some controversy involved.

‘No, no, no, how could I even think of making tools out of someone else’s remains? That’s just Hellish! Damn, it must be those “Flame Bearers” with a penchant for turning themselves into gear that are a bad influence…’

Colin shook his head, suddenly realizing that his moral compass had slipped unintentionally.

He had to stay alert!

Last, the information regarding the “Seed of Light”.

This held the least attraction for him…

“Let’s set this mission aside for now and talk about who you are. Why don’t you show yourself?”

Colin spoke silently, but unfortunately, there was no response.

“Lady Rabbit” used to want to reclaim this “branch”, but it seemed this thing was too cunning to be easily reclaimed.

However…

‘”Lady Rabbit” gave this to me, she probably anticipated this turn of events…’

After pondering for a moment, Colin decided to hand over the “bait”.

Among the three options, he briefly deliberated and chose the first, the unshaped module…

Then, he took out the letter containing “Three Hundred Thousand Points” from his pocket, saw an invisible vortex appear that sucked it away, and soon after, two items were added to his “Storage Room”.

Both were letters, but he couldn’t open them now; he’d have to wait until he got back.

At the same time, Colin faintly felt something leave.

“Quick escape…”

Colin sat in the chair, raised his hand and touched his chin, curious about who was running this so-called “branch”. Was it some person, some power organization…

Or was the “branch” itself alive?
