Chapter 617: Chapter 465: The Formal Action of the Employees._2 Chapter 617: Chapter 465: The Formal Action of the Employees._2 “Alright, alright, twenty points it is…”
Life Mentor Adorable waved his hand. Although the price was a bit expensive, now that Brother Shunzi wouldn’t drive the base vehicle out, besides this bird, they had no other means to travel long distances quickly.
“What’s the use of points for a summoned creature inside a prop?” The third vice-captain was puzzled.
“I’m not sure either…”
After a minor incident, the blue bird formed by the hurricane spread its wings, each claw suspending a dozen people.
About an hour later, everyone arrived at their destination.
“Damn, that was the worst ride experience ever!” Someone complained, tidying up their hair tousled by the wind and looking around.
Finding the rift that Brother Shunzi spoke of wasn’t difficult, because there were rifts all over the damn place!
They were as dense as a spider web; it was impossible to know which one he was referring to.
However, according to Brother Shunzi, he left a scent marker nearby. This vicinity should have an unusual fragrance, and by following it, they would quickly reach their destination…
Most of those present had already mastered the “Body of Tyranny.”
One by one, they lifted their noses and sniffed the ground for a while, finally locating the large underground fissure.
After making some preparations, they followed the scent and traveled beneath the fissure.
Soon, they encountered a man-made underground passage filled with glowing crystals…
Life Mentor Adorable turned to the third squad captain, who opened his coat, revealing several small and large instruments attached to the inner layer, used to detect various abnormal environmental conditions…
They waited a few seconds.
“Good, the Geiger counter isn’t ticking, let’s keep moving.”
The group quickly arrived in the man-made labyrinth, but they didn’t venture too deep…
In an area about a few dozen meters deep, they took out some remains of abnormal creatures and then placed a “flame”-shaped golden mark on top, infusing it with spirituality.
The next second, a bonfire blazed to life.
Almost a minute passed…
It seemed like there was no reaction?
“What now?” someone asked softly.
“Shh, be quiet, wait.”
Kawaii-many put a finger to his lips, indicating that Brother Shunzi probably wasn’t wrong.
However, two more minutes passed…
There was still no reaction here, and doubt began to rise, wondering if they might have got the method to light the bonfire wrong.
But just at that moment.
The entire mysterious underground labyrinth suddenly trembled, the vibrations escalating rapidly from mild to intense…
“Holy shit, an earthquake!”
“Don’t panic, don’t panic, everything is within Brother Shunzi’s expectations!”
The initial chaos was quickly quelled.
It was at this time that everyone distinctly felt that a vast and terrifying entity was spreading from the unknown depths. Its aura was indescribably fearsome, like a natural disaster, with an oppressive force too daunting for a direct gaze.
In their minds, an image formed, composed of mysterious frequencies, large enough to fill every inch of their mental space.
That figure was slightly bending down, looking at those who had arrived with a cold gaze.
‘Hiss, Brother Shunzi wouldn’t have us seek a true god’s assistance with our journey, would he?’ thought Kawaii-many as he took a sharp breath, disbelief shared by everyone present.
After all, this being in front of them could undoubtedly be described with one word—
“God!”
Or rather, this was an entity with a theoretical capability to destroy planets, end civilizations, and qualify as a First Level Containment Subject with a Great Will!
How could such a high-dimensional being kindly help them?
Even if it bore them no ill-will, they might have already dropped dead from merely looking at it!
And it was at this moment that the presence before them, looming like Mount Tai, spoke, “Who is it that disturbs my slumber?”
Kawaii-many struggled to suppress his emotions, took out a gold token from his pocket, and spoke to it with as calm a demeanor as possible:
“Honored ‘King of Mad Sounds,’ Brother Shunzi, I mean, the messenger of the ‘Bonfire,’ has asked me to inform you to assist us in reaching a designated area…”
Having heard his words, the unknown “God” extended a hand and drew the golden token to it.
After about a dozen seconds of silence…
“Indeed, it is a favor from a friend.”
The voice of the “King of Madness” boomed like thunder, causing everyone’s eardrums to itch.
“Then…”
Life Mentor Adorable was about to say something when he suddenly noticed.
The great existence extended His hand with a wave, and everyone immediately felt themselves covered by some kind of force, their bodies becoming strangely weird, and then they quickly moved in a certain direction at a speed they had never experienced before.
‘Damn, Brother Shunzi can actually be friends with a True God, terrifying, so terrifying…’
Some employees were communicating in the team’s minds.
“Look at what Brother Shunzi summoned, then look at what you summoned, flying such a short distance, and still charging…”
“The True God doesn’t even charge, and your lousy bird still does…”
“Exactly, exactly, this riding experience is so much better than being grabbed by yours”
“Fine, if there’s still a chance to use it later, I’ll authorize you to use it, and you can recite the lines…”
“I was just kidding, bro…”
…
Dozens of minutes later, everyone arrived at their destination and exited that special state in a vast space.
They wanted to thank the “King of Mad Sounds”…
But they felt that He might have already left directly.
“We’ve arrived…”
“Life Mentor Adorable” stumbled a bit, “The mission sense is very close, it shouldn’t be too far from here, but let’s rest a bit before heading over.”
There was no feeling during the teleportation.
But after teleportation, everyone was a bit disoriented, feeling a bit disrupted.
It took almost a dozen minutes for the D Level Personnel to return to normal first, but they didn’t rush to act because the E level employees still weren’t online in terms of Status.
Another dozen minutes passed, and everyone recovered and started moving again.
It took some time, but when they found the exit, everyone discovered that it seemed to be a sewer or a well…
Opening the rusted iron door, a strong, rotten stench came through.
“Life Mentor Adorable” wrinkled his brow and after making sure there was no danger, he peered out.
The heavy stench came from the bottom of the well, where a pile of decayed flesh, not knowing how long it had been dead, was soaking in the murky well water.
From some of the skulls sticking to the flesh, it seemed to be women and children, all decayed together, no telling how many people there once were…
And at the well opening, a stone was stuck there, blocking any way out.
The image alone was enough to guess at what had happened here.
Adorable applied a BUFF to himself and climbed out of the well, using some indentations in the wall to climb up, then listened at the large rock blocking the exit before smashing it with a punch.
A hazy light poured into the place from outside…
The stones fell down, but it didn’t affect him much, as they all fell into the well on one side.
The heavy stench surged up again.
Holding his breath, he stuck his head out and saw a rather common small village.
However, after suffering some unknown event, the village was deserted.
Moreover, an unsettling bluish-black fog was spreading around the area…
“Less than thirty kilometers away from here…”
After sensing for a while, Adorable was about to call the employees to continue moving and climb out of the well. Suddenly, he felt a strong surge of panic and sense of imminent crisis.
He turned his head instinctively, looking to the side.
There, unexpectedly, stood a figure.
No, to be more accurate, it was a monster, a creature covered in bluish-black pustules with its chest to belly split open on both sides like a vertical mouth!
It was at that moment.
The creature opened its massive “mouth” and charged at him at high speed.
“Life Mentor Adorable” didn’t panic. His right hand transformed into a beastly arm with long, sharp claws, bisecting the charging aberrant creature at the waist.
The eerie corpse hung to one side, wriggling continuously, its pustules bursting and dispersing bluish-black fog.
Seeing this, he furrowed his brows.
“Is this… a villager contaminated by the ‘Hunger’ aura?”
Fortunately, the problem wasn’t too significant. He called out, gathered the rest of the personnel, and prepared to start the final push.
As long as they could reach that place, the mission would be considered complete!
…
In the territory behind them, Colin was nervously watching the live projection in mid-air through some means Shana had left on the employees, with one hand holding a soda and the other a piece of roasted meat.
