Chapter 891 - 891 594 Brother Shunzi_2

Chapter 891: Chapter 594 “Brother Shunzi!”_2 Chapter 891: Chapter 594 “Brother Shunzi!”_2 “At that time, I’ll try to give this bunch of guys, who are fighting to get out and lay their hands on me, a big surprise…”

Of course, that still relies on when the interference subsides, the signal connects, and he gets a little help from Lady Bunny.

He would acquire Rogue, as well as some other things from the “Flame Bearers.”

After talking it through, Colin finally asked, “Shana, are you willing to take a gamble with me?”

“Sure, I am willing.”

Shana replied, as expected.

Hearing this, almost without a second thought and deeply touched, Colin stepped forward, hugged Shana tightly, and couldn’t help but kiss her on the cheek.

Surprised by his “bold” move, Shana paused for a moment, then smiled and, taking advantage of Colin’s distraction, lifted him up and with a “pop,” returned the gesture in kind.

“It’s a pity, you’re still too small like this…” Shana pursed her lips, gave a wry smile, then put Colin down.

“Let’s talk about it later.”

Colin nodded and clenched his fist: “We will win.”

“I believe in you, and you also need to believe in yourself, don’t give up, I will face everything with you,” Shana promised.

“Yeah.”

Colin nodded earnestly, indicating he definitely wouldn’t give up easily.

“Yeah…”

Shana said, then suddenly changed her tone, as if it was no different from usual, yet with a peculiar undertone, “So, Mr. Colin, is there anything else you would like to talk about?”

Hearing this, Colin had a bad feeling and thought carefully.

All the preparations and possible consequences seemed to be just what he’d mentioned…

But seeing Shana’s tone, Colin hesitated and said with uncertainty, “It seems like there’s nothing else…”

“Hmm-hmm…” Shana’s expression carried a rare special meaning, like she was up to no good, and she smiled slyly, “Would you mind if I ask you something then, Mr. Colin?”

“Uh, go ahead,” Colin nodded.

“Do you mind talking about Miss Liu Yun?”

Shana asked with curiosity.

The lady who had gambolled everything on her own to escort Colin, staking her life, Shana remembered quite clearly and was somewhat moved by it…

“Oh, her…”

Colin came to his senses, then glanced at Shana but couldn’t discern her expression, and he spoke with a mix of emotions:

“There’s nothing I can’t talk about.”

After briefly explaining the situation, Colin wore a face of melancholy complexity.

The information collected previously in Passionate Paradise indicated that even without losing control, its success rate was not high. Back in the day, many companies’ “elites” charged in, shouting challenges at their own weaknesses, confident and brimming; yet one by one, they all came to nothing.

Colin didn’t quite understand why before.

Now, he sort of understood…

Although many things in it were fake, were staged, it didn’t play false with you, once the “characters” inside, like Liu Yun, “awakened,” their emotions became real, autonomous and unique…

How could anyone bear it?

It’s impossible to guard against, absolutely impossible…

“Is that so…”

After listening, Shana said, “I remember, she seemed to have sunk to the bottom of the sea, maybe we could save her?”

There were no thoughts of jealousy, only the feeling that it was a pity to lose a life.

“I’m not quite sure, maybe it can only be known after contacting that little guy in the sea, if she was swept into the sea back then, the chances of survival are high, but…”

Colin shook his head: “Even if she’s alive, she probably wouldn’t want to wake up.”

This might already be the best outcome.

Thinking it over, Boss Huang He, the instigator behind this Passionate Paradise, truly caused no small harm to others.

After speaking, there was a brief silence on the scene.

Then suddenly, Shana raised her hand, rubbed Colin’s head forcefully, breaking the silence, and began talking about other things.

For example, the current state of some employees as well as the world…

Colin quickly got a clear picture of what condition the world was in now.

First was the size, it couldn’t be said to be infinite, but at least, from six months ago to now, Shana had not yet seen a definite boundary or end, with various overlapping “Inner Worlds” visible every once in a while.

Some could get out just by walking straight ahead, others might get turned around variously, making the landscape of the world extremely complex.

“No wonder this world always has all sorts of anomalies popping up, never completely eradicated,” Colin couldn’t help saying.

If nothing else, these things seemed to be the masterpieces of the “Bonfire Company”—

Even if it wasn’t, it couldn’t be entirely unconnected to them.

Secondly, regarding the employees, according to “Life Mentor Adorable’s” statistics, about forty or fifty percent might have been sacrificed, which, compared to the mass casualties of ordinary people, couldn’t be considered a lot.

But to say it wasn’t a lot, that certainly wasn’t true either…

Many people Colin knew had died, like the cheap apprentice “Professor Cute Cuddle” of Adorable, like someone with a Martian name, like many…

At the height of the crisis, even Parchment had once come to a standstill, not reopening until “The Deep Sea Era”.

Various functions were also limited, like shopping in the marketplace with purchasing limits, communication functions only working in certain areas and not reliably, most of the time there was nothing…

Like now Colin couldn’t even turn it on.

Besides that, the only thing worth being glad for was that the crucial “mission” mechanism was still running, and those who were still alive had basically all been promoted to D Level.

Elite D-Level employees with extremely rich combat experience!

“One bigger problem is, after the disaster, it no longer actively selects and recruits,”

Shana shared the intel she had understood: “Now, many employees who left this world through ‘missions’ or other means, are trying as much as possible to return, to support this place…”

She continued mentioning some things, like how originally quite a few people had entered “non-existent hospitals,” “Abyssal Blood Pool” and the like for special missions.

Where they had avoided the most dangerous moments of the disaster.

“It seems like ‘Brother Unyielding’ might have put his strength into it there,” Colin felt somewhat heartened.

But he couldn’t feel heartened for long…

Because, including the “non-existent hospital” and so on, a lot had completely disappeared without a trace during “The Deep Sea Era”.

Not knowing whether they were dead or alive, the surviving employees couldn’t uncover any information…

Colin picked up the Parchment, and using his C-Level authority, tried to sense the situation of these missions, attempting to gain some inspirational knowledge.

But quickly, he frowned, he didn’t feel anything.

It all seemed to have vanished.

If it were simply a disappearance that would be one thing, but more critically, even the mission records…

Seemed to have been wiped clean.

This was not something an external enemy could accomplish.

“Seems like there’s a bit of a problem.”

Colin instinctively felt that something was amiss.

He couldn’t speak for those other places like blood pools that he hadn’t visited, but after sensing the anomaly, Colin even had a feeling that something wasn’t right the last time at the “non-existent hospital”.

However, without any leads to track, he could only put it aside for the time being.

In the following period, Colin accompanied Shana on the post-apocalyptic wasteland, enjoying the last bit of leisure time.

After feeling the “Red Moon” presence as if the tide was retreating.

Colin and Shana came to a crumbling dam near the sea where they set up a bonfire.

Next, while grilling some recently caught large squid, sending them as Qingming offerings for an old friend, he took out the Parchment.

After waiting for a while, the communication function was restored.

“Brothers, up for the final winning chicken dinner match? Winner eats chicken, loser eats shit. Anyone joining me?”

After editing and sending the message, other employees, intending to query its meaning, halted upon seeing the ID that had been longed for and overlooked for over two and a half years.

Each one paused, incredulously rubbing their eyes, then widening them to the fullest!

Brother Shunzi, logged in?!
