SCP Corporation: Contain Bonfire
Chapter 726 - 726 522

Chapter 726: 522 Chapter 726: 522 “Ding—ding—ding~”

The distant and ancient bell tolls faded slowly away…

Colin opened his eyes to a serene little church where a bonfire was burning.

“This place looks like it needs some renovation and expansion; otherwise, it’s a bit too crowded.”

In this descent project, he had recruited fifty new employees. It seemed that this time, regardless of whether they were D Level or F Level, they all chose to join, rather than avoiding it as before…

From this point of view, the spontaneous promotion by the employees over this period had been quite effective.

‘The tasks for the first two days of this week should be to go out and find people, um, for them to go out and find people.’

Those who came for the first time had to find others to register in front of the bonfire; it was already an old process…

In the early days, finding people was somewhat dangerous.

But now the situation is stable, the conditions are improved, and each of them is an Extraordinary One.

Their luck might be a bit poor at the start.

But they didn’t have to worry too much about dangers like death…

Even if it did happen, they still had three chances to resurrect.

As thoughts flashed through his mind, less than a third of a second had passed. Colin was about to gesture for the other employees to descend and then allocate the tasks for this time before going to find Sister Shana to go over the accounts…

But then he suddenly heard a pure, beautiful voice, as if a sound from the heavens, coming from the church entrance, so mesmerizing that one could not help but immerse in it.

Looking over, he saw Shana holding Little Red at the entrance, singing with eyes closed…

The entire church seemed to emanate a divine atmosphere because of this voice.

‘Shana?’ Colin surprised for a moment, “pressed” the appearance of the employees, and listened intently by himself.

The song was pleasant, but what surprised him even more was that it… used the language from Earth?

“Ah, the most beautiful future! Don’t be cold to me, don’t be cold to me, do not be cold, I start from zero point, towards the most beautiful future~ towards the most beautiful future, even if it’s a long road, um~ huh?”

The singing paused, and Shana stopped her gently swaying head, seeming to notice something, she looked back at the people, stood up, put down Little Red, and smiled, saying, “Mr. Colin, good day.”

“Right, morning…”

Colin thought the song Shana sang sounded familiar, probably one of the employees had played music aloud while working, and she picked it up from there; it wasn’t a big deal…

He nodded in response and waved his hand.

With a wave of his large hand, clumps of ashes were expelled from the bonfire, then as they landed on the ground, they congealed into people, forming the figures of the employees.

“Let me explain today’s task. As I mentioned in the meeting yesterday, today we have fifty new employees joining us…”

Upon hearing this, the present employees narrowed their eyes and showed cruel smiles.

The time had come to introduce the newcomers to their blessings!

“Brother Shunzi, go receive them, count me in as well… not…”

“Me too, me too!”

“I… never mind, I still have a few patients in critical condition to treat, along with some rehabilitation training and whatnot, so I won’t go… too bad.”

“…”

Going out to find people was a rare “holiday” opportunity, one they would strive for if possible; otherwise, they would be grinding through medication and energy consumption, working nonstop for seven days and nights without rest.

Colin understood their little schemes and spoke up:

“Cute Duo, you organize a group to receive them. As for the subsequent arrangements and such, currently, there’s no special task; you handle it. I can sense that this group of people isn’t too far away, two days should be enough for you…”

Hearing Colin’s words, “Life Mentor Adorable” nodded, indicating no problem.

Now the situation was not as complicated as before, so one or two days were roughly enough. Being an employee ready to push for D+ Level access, he didn’t have any desire to slack off.

After all, hard work here did pay off; the points reward was much higher than anywhere else.

In the end, Colin walked out the door and tossed out the ten cubic meters of material…

After he finished allocating the tasks and everyone dispersed to start working, Little Red was the first to rush over, hugging him and affectionately calling him big brother.

“I was just learning to sing with Sister Shana; her singing is really nice…”

“Indeed, it’s nice. Did you finish your homework?”

“All done! I checked the answers, I got eighty in math!”

“Not bad.”

Colin nodded, pulled out a new workbook from the “Storage Room,” tousled her hair while saying:

“As a reward, here’s your assignment for this week; I specially had experts create these teaching problems for you. Go do them… I have a bit of work, I’ll come find you later…”

“Oh…” Little Red walked away dejectedly with the new workbook.

Then, Colin looked at Shana, who stood quietly on the side. After a couple of seconds of thought, he said:

“This time, when I went back, I think I discovered some things about the ‘company’ here…”

At that point, he paused, considering that this place was, in a sense, still the subsidiary’s territory. In case it threw a fit, the spectacle of a heavenly anomaly or a fire dragon burning the warehouse would be quite troublesome…

After looking at Colin for a couple of seconds, Shana seemed to realize the reason for his hesitation and raised her hand to comb back a few strands of hair from her forehead to behind her ear:

“You don’t need to worry too much about it. Just by understanding some things, it can’t bring us any substantial trouble, nor will there be any retaliation or such…”

“That’s good to hear.”

After some thought, Colin beckoned with his hand, sealed off the church’s main doors with flames, and got ready.

Then, he settled down with Shana at a small conference table beside the bonfire and started to talk about some matters related to allocation…
