Campfire Shelter

Chapter 579 The third



"goodbye."

Colin's eyes moved slightly, wanting to say goodbye, but because of extreme fatigue, even if his mouth was slightly opened, he could not make any sound.

At this time, the "Snow Girl" who was hiding in the shadow out of fear of "Old Mr. Wu" appeared again.

After Colin opened and closed his eyes, a long time must have passed.

Because the scene has changed again

He was taken to an unknown corner by the "Snow Girl" to hide.

However, because Mr. Wu had helped him cover some of his aura, he was no longer visited directly by some cultists or even some high-level containment objects from time to time like before.

In addition, the pollution of the "Red Moon" can be regarded as a natural protective umbrella in a sense, preventing high-ranking beings from coming.

Now I finally have a chance to breathe

However, Colin also noticed that the time he spent in coma seemed to be getting longer and longer.

I used to be able to wake up several times a day, but now I may not be able to open my eyes even once a day.

And the gap between waking up every time is getting shorter and shorter.

At the same time, under the world covered in scarlet.

Deep in a long-broken shelter, in a channel with the only clear water flowing, suddenly there was a "squeaking" sound.

Not long after, a figure with scars all over his body and extensive burns made a splash, stretched out his hands from the water and lay on the shore.

Then with the help of a group of invisible mice, he crawled out of it.

Lying on his back among the ruins, he raised his head with difficulty, looked through the cracks at the crimson world outside, his eyes filled with hatred.

If it weren't for that guy, everything wouldn't be like this!

"Colin, the world has collapsed and countless lives have been lost. This is you. Is this the result you 'Fire Bearers' want?"

"We all lost!"

"What 'Fire Holders'?! They're just a group of undead souls that have been dead for who knows how long and will only hold us back!"

"Without physical objects, there is no way to prove whether it will succeed. We can only rely on mental deception and believe in whatever we say. What is the difference between this kind of path and MLM!"

"The fate of mankind cannot be left in the hands of such a liar."

"No, I didn't lose, I still have a chance, I can still succeed. No, it's only me, only I can succeed."

"Only I can lead"

His spirit, as if it were substance, made a sound of resentment.

As he spoke later, the whisper became a little crazy.

After a while, he seemed to notice something, and all the sounds disappeared instantly.

He turned his head and looked not far away, and saw a group of survivors huddled in the corner, looking at him tremblingly.

"Hey, hehehe, you are so lucky. At this time, you can still see such high-quality biological quality."

He was injured almost beyond recognition and said:

"You, come here, you are very lucky and will have the opportunity to become an important part of mankind's great plan again. Come here and hand over your biomass to me.

"I promise that your sacrifices will always be remembered by me, and your contributions will be remembered by the world.

"I will live with you forever!"

He issued a very friendly and convincing whisper, trying to call ordinary people here.

However, what surprised him was that none of these people seemed to be bewitched by his power.

Is it because he is too weak?

"To sacrifice for me is to sacrifice for the great destiny of mankind. What are you still doing standing there?!" He said inexplicably uneasy.

The power is obviously still there, why haven't his words had any effect?

Why don't those guys come over and dedicate themselves to a great cause!

Around him, the only few mice made "squeaking" sounds, seeming to be threatening.

However, the surviving people still did not move, just staring at him in the dark curtain.

"you."

Before he finished speaking, an old acquaintance who was a little calmer noticed the strange emotions on the faces of these ordinary people who had no overall perspective.

There is both fear and hatred.

Why hate?

At this time, angry shouts came from the crowd.

"That's him! It's this rat monster. I remember he was the one who killed Uncle Liu, killed dad, and caused our shelter to disappear!"

A teenage girl yelled angrily with tears welling up in her eyes, and then tried to rush forward.

She clearly remembered that at the beginning, this rat monster killed all the Extraordinaries in the shelter with unintelligible words such as "sacrifice", drained their blood, threw them into a cauldron, and then left.

It is precisely because of this that the shelter was destroyed and an unknown number of people died.

The few people left can only hide in a single room in the deepest shelter, relying on the last thing they have to survive.

At this moment, she wanted to rush out and fight the monster, but before she could succeed, she was pulled back by her equally angry mother behind her.

However, because he was not noticed, the younger brother on the side actually rushed out of the crowd, carrying a brick he picked up at an unknown time, and rushed towards him.

"Be careful." The mother shouted anxiously.

But at this time, the brick in the little boy's hand had already hit the ferocious humanoid creature hard.

"Die! You monster! Monster!!!" The little boy roared heartbreakingly, picked up the brick, used all his strength, and hit the monster's head crazily again and again.

"You" the rat man wanted to say something, but found that he was hit dizzy by a child——

How can this be? ! How could he be so weak?

No matter how good his body is, he is not so weak that a child with no extraordinary abilities can pick up a brick and knock him out, right? !

And at this moment, a burst of footsteps suddenly appeared.

He saw that after catching a glimpse of his own weakness, the fear in the eyes of those hiding behind disappeared, replaced by a kind of heart-stopping hatred.

This hatred occupied all their emotions and drove them to carry out some kind of revenge.

In the next second, chaotic attacks came from all directions. While he was dazed by being hit, he seemed to finally realize the reason:

"Numerology.!"

"No, you can't do this to me." Amid various attacks, he struggled and stretched out a hand, trying to crawl out.

But in the end, under the rage of the people, his hand fell to the ground and was trampled to pieces.

What the people who were still madly venting their anger at the corpse didn't realize was that at this moment, a line of fonts that was hidden and difficult to detect appeared on their retinas.

【.Those who choose to sacrifice others will eventually die at the hands of the people they sacrifice】

[No one knows about such a humble death in a remote and narrow ruins. 】

[And those who seek revenge will strengthen their hearts and continue to exist in this world. 】

At the same time, in a basement that was barely functioning, Colin was stuffed into the place she thought was safest by the snow girl - the freezer layer of the refrigerator. Colin suddenly opened his eyes slightly, and there was a trace of doubt in his cloudy eyes. .

I don't know why I feel a lot more relaxed, as if some inexplicable hidden danger suddenly disappeared.

But what it is specifically is hard to say clearly.

‘Should. It’s also a good thing. ’ Colin thought vaguely.

Taking advantage of now, he routinely sensed the outside world, and he was certain that the world had indeed become a lot bigger. The specific reason may have something to do with the various small worlds in the past, etc.

Because of the "Red Moon", all these worlds were exposed.

As a result, the area of ​​the earth at this time has expanded to a situation that was previously unimaginable. At the same time, the anomalies and heterodox races emerging from these worlds have converged, making the situation even more tense.

The good news is, it also makes it harder for those things to find him.

the bad news is

It can be said that today is an era of unprecedented chaos.

In Colin's mind, with his strong spiritual perception, he could vaguely glimpse scenes taking place in various worlds——

On a continent flowing with strange light, countless kangaroos rushed out, flew across the sea, and tried to spread out into the world. However, most of them sank inexplicably in the sea before they could travel long.

Under the earth, strange slime-like creatures surged out in groups, spreading themselves out as much as possible, bathing in red light, and making sounds of praise.

Some areas seem to change into a different world every ten kilometers you walk. The first step is a world of ice and snow, the next step is endless flow of magma, or it becomes a weird area without gravity.

From a distance, it looks like different worlds are spliced ​​together, clearly distinguishable.

Some of the surviving people whispered and prayed in the darkness, attracting uneasy gazes.

"It seems that I can already imagine the sea. From this point of view, part of the blockade has been broken down."

Colin thought intermittently about the time before when he exited the "hunger" state, and the "Red Moon" pollution had not yet spread, and the power of the gods still existed.

At one time, he had forgotten all the concepts contained in the word "sea". If he hadn't had a task hanging on him, he might have even forgotten the word "sea".

But he was much better now, at least he remembered what the ocean was.

And once again I have a certain sense of where this thing is

"After a while, when the blockade weakens and my health gets a little better, I can try to let the snow girl take me into the sea."

Colin thought drowsily. He was now certain that it was impossible to recover from these negative effects on his body by resting alone.

Only by performing the task as required and entering the sea can it be done.

But before that, let's take a nap.

No, I am thinking about how to escape from nightmares after falling into coma and falling asleep.

In the dream, he kept repeating very stereotyped and monotonous actions, such as being controlled by his body and constantly walking up the stairs, and then his fear was amplified, or he was eating himself.

When I woke up, I didn't feel that terrible, but in my dream, it was just as devastating as the water drop torture.

Feeling a strong sense of swelling and pain in his body mixed with all kinds of confusion, Colin fell into coma again, his brows furrowed.

"World Number-13", inside the only cathedral of the "Bonfire" Church.

Shana, wearing a gold-rimmed white holy robe, exuding pure white light, stood in front of the bonfire deep in the hall, her eyes closed as if she was dozing, and her beautiful fair face was vaguely visible in the firelight.

More than ten days have passed since the last time a company employee arrived.

According to current knowledge, two "Advent Days" have passed.

But both times, no one came here.

Soon it will be the third time.

However, everything showed no signs of getting better.

Thinking of this, Shana frowned slightly, and her inner worries became a little more intense.

Through some inexplicable inspiration, she could clearly feel that there might be an unimaginable horrific crisis happening over there - but as for the specifics of these things, especially Colin's current state, she was almost in an unknown state. among.

This is even more unsettling

On the other side, Xiaohong hugged her knees and stayed in the room, biting her lip with a frustrated look on her face, looking at the last White Rabbit toffee with red eyes under her somewhat swollen eye sockets.

Brother Colin said that after eating the candy, he should come over.

But until now.

She had eaten the last one.

It seems that as soon as you finish eating, you will know the result.

But she didn't dare to eat any more, for fear of getting a result she didn't want and couldn't accept.

"You haven't eaten much in a few days. Eat something first." Shana's clone, transformed into hazy light and shadow, came to her side and said comfortingly.

"Yeah" Xiaohong responded with a nasal voice, but she didn't move, she just buried her head deeply.

Shana stretched out her hand and rubbed her head, and was about to speak, but suddenly she saw Xiao Hong raise her head, her little face was very aggrieved, and there were tears in her eyes:

"Sister Shana, if, if big brother doesn't show up after eating this candy, will he never come back?"

After hearing this, Shana was silent for a few seconds and said soothingly: "Don't think too much, I'm just busy. Nothing will happen."

"Sister Shana, I don't want to do these questions anymore. I want to gain strength. I want to help him."

Shana didn't know how to answer. She was actually not good at saying false words to comfort people in private, so she could only say:

"You have to become smarter to help him. Of course, if I have the chance, I will teach you something."

Xiaohong has some transcendent talent for some biological-related knowledge and occult methods.

She can easily understand the nature of some of these things

This seems to be related to her innate special characteristics.

However, her characteristics are not very stable. If her mood fluctuates, she will be prone to accidents and it is not easy to try.

After hearing Shana's words, Xiaohong finally felt better. Then, some worries appeared in her eyes, and she remembered some of her previous attempts.

In some states, she may even attack her big brother!

This made her feel afraid of herself.

"Don't worry, it's just a simple try. Don't be afraid. If you can't believe in yourself, then believe in me." Shana reached out and rubbed her head: "Now, you need to adjust your body."

Hearing this, Xiaohong nodded heavily.

Not long after, with Shana's comfort, Xiaohong fell into a deep sleep after eating.

"Have a good sleep."

After Shana finished speaking, she sat on the edge of the bed, stroking Xiaohong's head with her hands, swinging her feet, humming a light lullaby, and waiting for the arrival of the third bonfire.

Another long time passed

She had thought that the bonfire would be as silent as before.

However, at this moment, the flame suddenly started to shake!

Wait, there is another chapter. (End of chapter)
