Chapter 878: Chapter 588 The 13 Disciples of the Master._2 Chapter 878: Chapter 588 The 13 Disciples of the Master._2 “What is it that you believe in? What do you call it…”

Hearing Colin’s words, the old man clad in a red-striped white robe, his face covered in wrinkles, revealed a devout smile:

“My ‘Master’ is the arch-enemy of all evil, the light of hope that responds to the helpless…

“When that most wicked era descends, under the celebration of the thirteen chosen disciples, messengers, and those who follow and adore Him, He will cast His merciful gaze…

“His disciples will pave the way for us to a serene and peaceful future…

“…”

Listening to the other’s words, Colin furrowed his brows; he just wanted to ask a name, to clarify some things, but why didn’t it ever end?

As the thought flickered, he was about to interrupt the other party’s monologue, when suddenly a chilling sensation arose.

At that moment, he vaguely felt as if something was watching him…

He abruptly woke up and noticed that the twisted and bizarre sculptures had seemingly grown somewhat larger in just the short two minutes of the conversation…

Moreover, the sculpture, which was originally wrapped up like a cabbage, had also unfolded quite a bit.

This allowed him to see, in the gaps where the layers of wings spread, something wrapped up, curled up like an embryo.

That thing, with its large eyes closed, gave off the feeling that they were about to open at any moment!

‘No, this isn’t right! This thing… and this old man, claim to be answering my question, but it seems more like some kind of chant, and from the beginning, it probably affected my status. Otherwise, given my character, I should have already disposed of them!’

Colin blinked fiercely and immediately, through his own “rich” combat instincts, realized the cause of this situation.

He definitely wasn’t seduced by the other’s words, never once considering whether to comply…

But the other’s methods sidelined that, to an extent, tying words to dampen some of his murderous intentions, making him relatively calm—

This influence was slight and could even be considered a positive “enhancement.”

After all, many times, Colin, or normal people, would need to calm down, stabilize, rather than be muddled.

Through some “positive” influences, the other party objectively led him into a trap!

If it were someone else, someone without those combat instincts, they might not have even realized what was really going on!

At that moment, Colin didn’t hesitate, quickly drew his gun, and aimed it at the old man’s head.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

Large-caliber “bullets” flew out, but they passed through their figures…

Optical illusions… Colin raised an eyebrow, and under the instinct of his body, he turned his gun, preparing to rapidly fire towards a direction in the field.

However, before he could pull the trigger, a certain distortion occurred in the scene before him.

The “lights and shadows” twisted, resembling looking through a kaleidoscope.

“Whoosh…”

In Colin’s pupils, fire surged, dispersing the chaotic world, and without hesitation, he immediately pulled the trigger.

This time, a tactile feedback of hitting a solid object came through…

And in that moment, the area before him, like a shattered mirror, revealed the true situation.

There was not much difference in the arrangement from before, except that everything had shifted slightly.

The direction he had originally looked in and where the enemy actually stood were entirely two different directions, hence the initial missed shots.

“Uh…”

Despite many believers shielding him in front, the old man, with his right limb and part of his chest blown open, was stunned, not expecting that everything seemed to be going well, only for it to turn around in an instant.

Moreover, the visual displacement that was very effective against other high-ranking members of Heretic Organizations was easily discerned!

But fortunately, by now…

he was just one last step shy from completing his task!

Just that final step, and he could summon a “Disciple” from the “Aurora Society” within the current holy site, to either kill or subdue the enemy before him!

Numerous believers moved forward, using their bodies to shield from the gunshots, sacrificing their lives in an attempt to block the powerful attack from the enemy.

As they sacrificed themselves to protect him, the old man’s eyes widened in anger, and he shouted loudly:

“The third disciple of the ‘Master’…”

As he spoke, a twisted light emerged from the center of the sculpture, and behind the light, a vague, tall yet deformed hunch-backed figure could be seen, its hand dragging a weapon that resembled both a scythe and a cross.

The terrifying aura, despite the distance, was still heart-pounding.

‘A second-level individual bestowed with higher powers, is relatively troublesome for me now…’

‘Without utilizing certain tools, it’s hard for me to eliminate him instantly; I need to resolve this prior.’

‘Otherwise, even if I manage to survive, the ordinary people here won’t withstand this level of confrontation.’

As thoughts flashed through his mind, Colin saw, amid the mockingly smiling old man’s lips.

It was as if everything was already too late…

Unaffected, Colin calmly and swiftly drew out a golden card.

However, just as he was about to solidify the current area and eradicate all hazards, a sudden change occurred!

The gradually forming Gate of Light suddenly halted and then directly collapsed…
