SCP Corporation: Contain Bonfire-Chapter 154 The Times Have Changed_1
[After some thought, you decide to steal a car because it’s the only way you can escape this place before that terrifying life form arrives.]
The message from the "Narrator" appeared before everyone’s eyes.
Upon seeing this message, Colin scoffed disdainfully while Dog Brother asked,
"Brother Shunzi, what do we do?"
Since Colin had returned, they had felt like they had a backbone, voluntarily cooperating with Colin’s actions.
"Steal a car," Colin said succinctly, causing everyone to be momentarily stunned—wasn’t this playing right into the "Narrator"’s hands?
"It’s just a bluff, we can’t hesitate at times like this."
Immediately, Colin took the lead and charged toward a bus parked dozens of meters away.
The others hesitated for a moment, then Loafing Immortal, carrying a "prisoner of war," followed suit.
They had barely made it a couple of steps when a burst of gunfire erupted, startling them.
However, not a single bullet hit them...
Dog Brother suddenly realized something and warned, "They seem to want to capture us alive!"
"I know."
Ahead, Colin nodded and looked up at the soldiers around Gao Haiwen, fully armed and ready to fire. Not once did his "Deadly Insight" kick in while they were shooting...
Colin knew his body wasn’t capable of withstanding bullets, and at a distance of a few dozen meters, they didn’t even need to aim; a random spray of fire could easily hit him, and he was ready to summon "Yukionna" to take the bullets for him.
If they couldn’t hit him, there was only one possibility: they wanted to capture them alive but weren’t confident they could hit without killing.
At that moment, seeing that Colin and the others weren’t scared off, Gao Haiwen raised his right hand, ready to activate his power, and then he saw Colin pull a pistol from his pocket and aim at him.
A pistol that looked utterly ordinary.
Seeing this, Gao Haiwen’s blood-stained square face revealed a mocking smile, "Considering how they’ve been protecting you, I thought you were formidable. And yet you’re trying to attack a high-level agent with this thing. For me, the age of firearms has passed. Bullets can’t break through the laws I’ve set... You must... uh..."
He was speaking very quickly, as if at double or triple speed, but his articulation was very clear.
"Wu wu wu, even though he’s turned into a ’puppet,’ he’s still revealing his weaknesses to us, it’s really...I’m crying..." a thought popped up in Right Brain.
Unconcerned, Colin kept running and aiming at his target, and then without hesitation, he pulled the trigger.
Bang bang bang!
Three shots rang out in quick succession.
Gao Haiwen’s speech halted mid-sentence as he felt his chest being pounded with heavy punches—there was no pain, but darkness clouded his sight, and he staggered.
A sweet, iron-like taste rushed to his throat, and blood spilled from the corner of his mouth. He looked down to see three bullet holes in his chest, one of which was spewing blood outward, apparently hitting the heart.
"How is this possible..." Gao Haiwen’s words trailed off, vision darkening as he fell to the ground.
"Sorry, looks like the era has changed back again. Be more cautious in your next life," Right Brain "spoke" sarcastically, mocking him on his behalf.
To this, Colin wasn’t surprised in the slightest; "Revolver Contrarian" might not fare well against monsters, but it had no problems when it came to people...
Of course, the key point was that the bullets from "Revolver Contrarian" seemed to always be unaffected by some strange forces.
And with the fall of Gao Haiwen, the influence of the rule here immediately dissipated...
"Charge!"
Colin shouted loudly, urging everyone to quicken their pace.
But before they had taken two steps, they saw a person burst out of the bus.
A man with brown hair and blue eyes, tall in stature, his body covered with a layer of bubbly black moss-like substance, he appeared as if dressed in a black raincoat.
He stood before the group, blocking the way forward.
Upon seeing him, "Loafing Immortal," with the woman slung over her shoulder, was startled and hastily shouted, "Stop! That guy is ’Hand of Reprimand’s’ Commanding Officer Norton! Don’t touch him at all costs, his body is very strong, and unlike Captain Gao, he has a special ability to detonate anything he touches, which is no less powerful than TNT!"
"Hand of Reprimand"? The name of an official force from Lighthouse Kingdom, but it seemed like they should not be difficult to deal with... Seeing his colleagues slowing down, Colin said, "Don’t mind him, keep moving. I will make a move."
They had to act quickly now, otherwise if whatever was behind this caught up to them, it would most likely be a terrible death for him.
No, not necessarily death, it was more likely he would be trapped here, living a fate worse than death, half-dead, with no rescue coming until 2044, and Miss Bunny might not come either...
There was probably trouble here that even the higher-ups at Bonfire Company found headache-inducing, otherwise, it wouldn’t still be an Out-of-Control Copy.
"Make a move? That’s a nearly Level 7 ability user! You can’t get past him!"
The woman’s brows furrowed slightly, fearing Colin hadn’t understood, she added another sentence.
The strength of the Bonfire Company employees they had seen before ranged from Level 4 to Level 5, and at most they were barely Level 6; being overly confident would surely lead to death!
Yet her words still did not stop these people’s stride.
However, as Colin approached the man before them, his pace did slow a bit as he took a murky transparent crystal from his pocket.
"Good, you think you can ignore me just because you managed to kill Gao with a sneak attack, watch me blow you all to smithereens!"
Norton sneered at the corner of his mouth, tearing open his shirt to reveal a hairy chest and a muscular upper body shaped like an inverted triangle, readying himself to attack.
Meanwhile, Colin pressed the transparent crystal against the "Widow Yukionna" ring, then continued to move forward without drawing any other equipment, as if he was completely disregarding it.
"Motherfucker!"
"Hand of Reprimand’s" Commanding Officer Norton, noticing himself being ignored time and again, showed an angry expression. He was about to move when he suddenly noticed that a frosty blue figure was enveloping him.
He frowned, attempting to turn over, but suddenly realized that his lower body was encased in a thick layer of ice.
A bone-chilling cold seeped up from his legs...
But he couldn’t focus on that, as a hazy ice-blue shadow rushed towards him, with Norton swinging a fist and shattering the frosty figure in front of him. It felt as if he had just dispersed a mist without substance.
Yet at the same moment, he felt an intense sense of danger behind him.
It was only then that he just managed to turn his head when he saw the icy blue shadow he had shattered charging at him again, rushing into his body...
"Damn it, the one just now was a fake!"
When he realized this, his entire body instantly stiffened, terrifying cold transpired from the inside out, freezing his body solid.
"Is that... settled?"
The woman was greatly astonished, as the employee from Bonfire Company before her eyes exceeded her expectations.
Why did it feel like, compared to the others, the one in front of her was like a supermodel?
