Campfire Shelter

In the frozen space, beside Colin, the scorching flames condensed and compressed into several spear shapes and shot out in a certain direction.

After a flash of light, a luminous figure that was trapped motionless by the solidification of time and space was pinned to the ground.

Then, Colin, who had already tried his best, suddenly had an idea and detonated the spear.

Amidst the loud rumblings, flames surged and light and shadow shattered.

"Finally succeeded?"

After three hours of fierce fighting, Colin, who was somewhat exhausted, felt happy inside.

However, the joy fell quickly before it rose.

Because the effect of "Shield of Fairness and Notarization" has not been lifted yet.

This also means that the opponent's clone "body" is fine.

Then, if Colin realized something, he turned around, narrowed his eyes slightly, and a blur of light stood not far away and looked at him quietly.

‘Hey, it’s really difficult to deal with’

At this moment, Colin did not attack rashly because he was not sure whether the light and shadow were real or fake.

And thinking back on the three-hour battle, he couldn't help but remember once again the powerlessness he felt at being dominated by C-class personnel.

The only difference is that C-level personnel feel oppressed by their own physical strength.

The "Light Chaser" has developed into an extremely deep field by applying its own characteristics and abilities to actual combat.

Compared with the physique of C-level personnel, his method is very special. He can split a large number of almost identical lights and shadows, making it difficult to distinguish which ones are real and which are fake.

At the beginning, every time he killed a light and shadow, he felt that the opponent "weakened" by one point.

But after killing more than ten lights and shadows in a row, Ke Lin reacted with some hindsight. This was almost like fighting Xixi.

It seems that you can take away the red envelope with one more chop. In fact, you may not be able to get it off even if you chop for two hours or three thousand times.

It's purely a trap.

But that's not the only thing that gives Colin a headache.

It was useless for him to break the light and shadow, but every light and shadow seemed false.

As long as it can attack him, it will become its "original body".

In other words, Colin's attack is ineffective against the opponent, but the opponent's attack is effective against him.

This. This is very difficult to handle.

However, not long ago, he suddenly had an "inspiration" in his heart. When the "Light Chaser" attack takes effect, the light and shadow of the attack seem to be a little brighter, so he guessed that the main body will only appear when the opponent attacks.

But at the critical moment just now, he didn't think too much until he tried his best and finally seized the opportunity to take advantage of the opponent's "materialization" to kill him.

Then

After all his efforts, Colin, who was exhausted, understood that the so-called "inspiration" was actually false information given by the "Light Chaser" through certain means.

"This thing can actually be used like this."

Colin has gained a lot of experience.

And he was a little lucky. Fortunately, this was a training exchange. If it was a life and death duel,

I am afraid that I will be miserably deceived by the enemy.

'But having said that, a kind of combat intuition tells me that as long as I can notice multiple clones and then attack the opponent accurately at the same time, I can attack the opponent.'

Colin was sure this time that this was his own idea.

Unfortunately, it is difficult for him to target multiple units at the same time, because the clones of these guys are all standing in the blind spot of his vision, and he cannot target multiple units at once.

More importantly, Colin has been deceived and is a little unsure. He is worried that this may be another trap.

In addition, due to the high-intensity fighting, his physical strength has almost reached its limit.

My brain is running a bit blank.

If you want to continue the high-intensity action with "The Man Who Chases the Light," you have to work overload.

That would be more harmful to the body.

And it was at this time that the voice of "The Man Who Chases the Light" sounded:

"That's it for today's direct battle."

At the same time, Colin saw many luminous figures walking towards him from all directions, and finally condensed into one body.

What surprised him secretly was that there were some clones among them that he had never discovered before!

"Compared to before, you have made great progress. At least you have made much better use of your props and items."

Shana said, recalling the last battle. At that time, when the campfire envoy in front of her used a certain card method, she would tend to use the concussion squeezed out by it to attack her.

Each time, she would hide at the edge of its effect, making herself elemental to a certain extent to avoid the impact.

And use the illusion of light and shadow to create the scene of being hit, making the opponent's efforts in vain.

But this time, the other party noticed this and would wait until she was within the effect before using it.

In addition, there are also considerable improvements in the timing of certain methods of solidifying space, as well as the proficiency of campfires, etc.

but

In her eyes, Colin's methods as a whole are relatively immature.

For example, the other party's mental protection is somewhat lacking, and it even means that the door is open. Otherwise, she would not be able to find opportunities to give the other party "inspiration" and carry out "information warfare" under the same level of circumstances.

Then, the opponent's combat reaction after being approached is a bit difficult to keep up with.

Also, the ability to develop that flame is not enough.

But with a little guidance, it's not a big problem.

"You rely a little too much on your eyes many times. Basically, you only think about moving after you see the target. But as an extraordinary person, relying only on your eyes is not enough, especially in intensive attacks. It is difficult to follow reaction."

"Generally speaking, many strong people with similar abilities will develop their own intuitive awareness at this step, so that it can provide all-round feedback perception like eyes."

"But based on your ability, I think you can try to do this by combining consciousness with your flame. Through it, you can perceive the world. What it brings to you is not only power, but also eyes. "

"I made an observation and found that you should be able to do this step, so our next step of learning will start with you being able to sense your surroundings through flames."

Shana explained briefly and planned to start with the "vision" aspect.

In previous fights, she was sure that when she was under the fire, the other party had some sense. However, if it was not seen with both eyes, the other party would not attack based on the sense, even if it was just a test.

This made the possibility of Colin defeating her at the same level extremely slim. If he fought to death, he would be guaranteed not to lose in a short period of time.

From this, she can probably tell that the other party has not developed too deeply in this area.

But it's not a big problem.

The other party is now in a situation where a casual sentence can enlighten him.

After tutoring for a while, Colin suddenly felt like he had pierced a layer of sandpaper. He could clearly see everything within the range of the surrounding firelight, and his field of vision instantly became wider!

It was as if a knife opened my eyes suddenly!

Even if your eyes are closed, as long as the flame is lit, everything around you will be reflected in your mind in a special way.

At this moment, Colin had a feeling that "everywhere the bonfire radiates is as far as the eye can see".

Moreover, this perception seems to be more comprehensive than what is seen in the field of vision

"I learned another key skill, but speaking of which, I have noticed it before, but I really ignored it. Well, I have to give my new passive a name."

Colin sighed that the tuition fee was enough, and at the same time added a name to the passivity of understanding.

Let’s call it “Killing Intent Fluctuation”.

No, it's called "Flame Sense".

Unpretentious.

However, after using "Flame Sense" to observe carefully, I quickly discovered that there were several clones of "Light Chasers" in every corner.

This time, he can finally stop becoming passive because of the blind spots in his field of vision!

But before he was happy, Colin, who was observing the other party, suddenly realized that something was wrong.

‘How do you feel about being a woman? ’ Colin was in a strange mood.

Something is wrong.

Take another look——

It seems like she is really a woman?

In the "bonfire view", the dim and luminous figure is still hard to see clearly, but compared to what is seen with the naked eye, one can roughly feel the outline of a thin and thin female figure.

'this'

Colin was startled. In his impression, "The Man Who Chased the Light" should be a tall and thick man.

I didn't expect it to be a woman.

It feels like a guy who often blows off sex on the Internet. I thought he was a burly guy who picks his feet, but when we go on a date one day, he is shocked to find that he is actually a beautiful girl!

But before he could think too much, the "Light-Chasing Man" in front of him spoke again, his voice still neutral and indistinguishable between male and female:

"It seems that you should be able to initially master this method of observation. Next, based on this, start to strengthen other aspects bit by bit.

"But let's stop here for today's training. I'm still connected here through Vanessa. If we continue, she won't feel well.

"I need to make some preparations for tomorrow, so I'll probably come back the day after tomorrow at night."

"Oh, okay." Colin nodded blankly, and then unlocked the effect of the "Shield of Fairness and Notarization".

Then, the figure of the "Light Chaser" instantly disintegrated and disappeared.

At the same time, not far away, Sister Vanessa of the "Light" Cult, who was lying on the ground, slowly opened her eyes, feeling that every part of her body was tired as if it was falling apart. She couldn't help but take a breath and muttered a complaint in a low voice.

Although there was a slight distance, Colin still heard her words.

"Oh, why do you feel? My body is a bit too tired. It seems to last a long time this time. What did you do this time?"

It's nothing, I just used your body to fight. Colin muttered in his heart.

Then he reached into the bonfire, pulled out a "colorless crystal" and threw it at Vanessa, and then used the light of the flame to help relieve her fatigue.

"Thank you, Lord." Feeling the warm flames, Vanessa sat on the ground and thanked her innocently.

"By the way, I have some questions that I would like to know. Can I ask, are any of the senior members of your 'Light' religion female?" Colin asked casually.

When Vanessa heard Colin's question, she suddenly became alert, and then she didn't know what she thought of. A look of wisdom appeared on her usually naive face:

"Are you going to ask who came here just now?"

"Uh" Colin choked, then smiled and nodded in confirmation.

In fact, at this moment, he probably had some guesses, but he was not very sure.

"I tell you this, can you reward me with a pack of White Rabbit toffee?" Vanessa asked expectantly.

Did you sell your big shot with a pack of toffee?

"no problem."

Colin took out a packet of toffee from his pocket and gave it to him.

After getting the reward she wanted, Vanessa didn't hide anything and said directly: "The person who just came here is His Majesty the Holy One."

The only person who came to the world through a nun was His Majesty the Holy One. Even if Colin didn't ask her, he could quickly figure it out by asking other people.

This is basic common sense that almost everyone knows.

So Vanessa had no idea that she had become a traitor.

"Your Majesty the Holy One." Colin murmured, finally confirming that his guess was correct.

The "Light" religion does not have any mechanisms such as great elders and supreme elders. The only two people who can be put on the table, called "His Majesty", are the Pope and the Saint.

Since the prefix is ​​not Pope, but Saint, it is almost equal to a bright card.

As far as he knows, saints within the religion usually refer to the Holy Son or the Holy Lady.

And the saint of this generation is a woman.

That is, the so-called living saint who walks on the earth. He usually does nothing, and can somehow steal away part of the power of his faith. The "light" saint Shana.

Even now, Colin can occasionally hear his followers thanking each other in his campfire territory.

The key is that while thanking the other party, the belief in the bonfire can still be extremely pure.

Apart from "loyalty", Colin didn't know how to describe it.

"But speaking of it, I didn't expect that this being was actually an employee of the Bonfire Company. Tsk, I wonder how you can be so ruthless."

Thinking back on the opponent's record, Colin suddenly felt relieved.

I just don’t know why it seems like it’s been stuck at F level for a long time with this kind of strength.

Could it be that he was also trapped by an out-of-control copy?

"'Love Paradise' was full of people not long ago, so it shouldn't be the case. From this point of view, if it is a runaway dungeon, it should be stuck in another F-level runaway dungeon, the 'Lightless Zone'?"

Colin mused.

He felt that based on the opponent's strength, if the copy was really stuck, it wouldn't be impossible to complete it, but rather there wouldn't be enough people.

In addition, judging from the fact that he can see through the opponent's light and shadow

Colin estimated that the "Light Chaser" might not have done much to hide it, otherwise he would most likely not be able to see him.

"The employees on the Earth side hide themselves because they are afraid of being revealed offline. Ms. Rabbit said that if I reach D level, I can have sex offline."

"Of course, the person you want to date cannot be a mentally retarded robot. In this world, it feels like she is the only one who is real to others, and no one else is real to her."

Shaking his head, Colin didn't think much about it. Anyway, if he wanted to know, he would have the opportunity to learn about it in the future.

Then, he walked outside the church and slowly closed his eyes.

But even though I closed my eyes, what I "see" in my brain was even more complete.

Under the flame perception, he can clearly understand which guys are not working hard and are lazy in the middle of the night, and which guys are working diligently and conscientiously.

"Very good, most of them work very hard."

Colin felt relieved, and then personally joined the work and began to urge everyone to work harder.

After all, how well the employees work is related to his score for this task.

But today's territory is still a bit too rural.

It is necessary to step up various infrastructure construction so that every refugee can live in a new house.

In the next few days, a group of employees suddenly understood something.

Even with an extraordinary body, it is possible to succumb to overtime work.

The tasks seemed to be endless, one after another was completed in less than a second. I thought I could take a breath after finally settling tens of thousands of people, but suddenly tens of thousands more people came.

The work seems to have no end in sight.

Under the leadership of Colin, while all employees worked hard, they also realized one thing.

Facts have proved that when there is no danger, Brother Shunzi is the danger.
