Chapter 720: Chapter 518 “Mirror London”_2 Chapter 720: Chapter 518 “Mirror London”_2 “Huff, huff, huff~”

The flame madly poured into the Golden Mask, dissolving the nearly vanished seal on top.

“There’s a special space inside… this thing is quite big as well.”

Colin sensed the mask as he increased the flame.

As the flame scorched, the special space began to collapse, and things like the Black Iron Threadworm were forced out of the Golden Mask, only to be instantly roasted into charcoal containing terrifying energy by the flames…

Despite the strange, parasitic creatures seemingly accustomed to struggling, at this stage, a turnaround was no longer possible.

Around Colin, there was nothing that could serve as a host for them…

About half an hour later, there were roughly a hundred cubic lumps of High-Efficiency Energy Carbon in front of Colin, resembling sifted powder…

And with their complete death, the “Colosseum” effect was finally lifted.

“Bang, bang, bang…”

The Bicephalous Cobblestone came from afar, dragging along the carbon kindling collected along the way, and began to arrange the bonfire stack under the guidance of Colin’s thoughts.

“Incredible… Is it resolved just like that?”

Xu Duojin stood on the side, looking at the large clump of pitch-black material, somewhat in disbelief.

But from the faint aura emanating from it, it was indeed the remains of a genuine Level 2 Containment Subject.

In the end, before it could even display its abilities, it turned into a lump of carbon in his hands.

“Yeah, it didn’t take many minutes to kill, but it took me quite some time to roast it into carbon,” Colin said afterwards, as if he had only killed a chicken, leaving Xu Duojin shaking his head, not knowing what to say.

Not minding what he was thinking, Colin simply arranged the kindling and continued on his journey to hunt down some Level 3 or Level 4 Containment Subjects…

He aimed to roughly encircle Mist City with the kindling fires.

As for how to arrange these…

Colin hadn’t studied it, but after becoming a “Flamebearer” Reservist, some things came naturally.

“After you arrange them, aren’t you worried about those kindlings being destroyed if you just leave them there?” Xu Duojin asked.

“It’s possible…”

Colin did not deny it but continued, “However, the likelihood is not very high. First, the influence of the ‘Haze Angels’ is still quite strong; we put it outside, and those creatures can’t see it.

“Second, inside the abnormalities, those that are intelligent are generally quite strong. High levels not to mention, the strength of an Eighth Level official is required, but these are mostly contained within seals…

“And the lower-level abnormalities naturally repel the ‘Bonfire’ aura and won’t come close, so the likelihood is not high…”

Of course, the safest approach would be to take the kindling along and only arrange it after collecting enough materials in the end—that would be the most cautious method…

But the problem is, Colin didn’t have such a large independent spatial bag to carry that much kindling.

After hearing Colin’s response, Xu Duojin thought for a moment and said, “Do we need to find someone to watch over it? No, that won’t work. It would be fine at the base, but once you’re outside the base, people themselves will attract monsters, and that’s more likely to create chaos…”

Before he finished, he shook his head and dismissed his own suggestion.

“Yeah, so let’s leave it as it is for now; if there’s an issue, we’ll just hunt again,” Colin said, waving his hand and resuming his activity. It took him approximately six or seven hours to establish a total of twenty-nine bonfire piles around Mist City.

Besides the most important bonfire pile, the others were also stacked with Level 3 or a certain number of Level 4 and 5 materials…

After completing the task, he then headed towards the next dangerous restricted area.

The place wasn’t far from here, just under a hundred kilometers away.

But not long after starting his journey, Colin suddenly paused, noticing something amiss…

There was a perfectly intact city ahead?

Even more, it was filled with a large population…

Colin gestured with his hand for the “Mountain of Smiling Corpses” to stop moving, concentrated the flames in his eyes, and gazed into the fog-covered city at the figure of a white-collar man.

“Cough, cough, cough, this damn weather…”

The white-collar man coughed and cursed something as he entered an office building.

It looked like he was going to work…

No, he was indeed going to work! Because it wasn’t just him; many nearby shops were still operating normally.

Colin watched, unsure of what to say, but it seemed that due to proper protection, the city wasn’t haunted?

“How did they manage it? People outside are considering whether to sink the island, and yet there are still people up there who haven’t noticed anything,” Colin honestly felt shocked.

He knew that there were many survivors on the island who hadn’t been able to leave this country in time, but he had not expected that these survivors could still go to work as usual?

However, the next second, he suddenly noticed something didn’t add up—this city looked familiar…

“Isn’t this Mist City?! Have we fallen for some illusion?” Colin’s eyes widened. They had just come from there, how could they stumble upon another one?

“This city, it should be another of their large-scale special containment subjects… seems to be called ‘Mirror London’ or something like that. The confidentiality level is very high, it wasn’t widely disclosed. During the disaster, many people somehow were transferred inside…” Xu Duojin remarked after a few seconds.

Although he had never seen it himself, he vaguely knew some information.

Colin waited for him to continue, but Xu Duojin just gestured that there was no more to tell.

So you only know the name…

Colin fell silent, then looked towards the city again, noting many details, such as everything in this “Mist City” seemed to be the opposite of reality…
