Chapter 934: Chapter 932: Prism (Five) Chapter 934: Chapter 932: Prism (Five) Although his tone was mild, the Masked Man’s words had a unique persuasive power.

Especially when coupled with the sight of everyone armed to the teeth, the effect was even better.

The young woman named Adele finally took a deep breath and reluctantly shifted her gaze away from Henry.

Given the circumstances, it would have been reasonable for Fu Qian to willingly hand over the kitten to console the other’s longing.

Unfortunately, Fu Qian was not moved at all. The Spiritual Acumen Finger was as steady as Mount Tai, causing several creatures, including the kitten Henry, to visibly become disappointed.

“Just a few days ago, someone predicted a terrible event would occur, involving these pervasive, incomprehensible colors.”

At this point, Adele finally managed to formulate her words, gesturing around as she spoke.

“It is said that in the future this person experienced, under the shroud of these colors, many people will fall into madness and eventually become like walking corpses.”

Adele’s recount clearly indicated her fear of that vision.

“It sounds absurd, but in the end, more and more people were persuaded and gradually left this place to avoid the impending disaster, and then this place became what it is now.”

Just being in these colors accumulates madness?

It does sound quite serious.

Could this also be the reason why the Extraordinary Power is ineffective?

Fu Qian was undoubtedly listening very attentively.

One reason was that just as this was said, a prompt in his mind chimed, feeling much like triggering a keyword.

[Current mission updated, find the source of the rainbow light]
And, gratifyingly, from the corner of his eye, all five teammates instinctively looked up and glanced at each other.

It really wasn’t just a bluff; had they all received the mission?

So, were they really five seniors?

“Did it all appear?”

As Fu Qian was marveling at the marvels of this mission, it was the Masked Man who blatantly spoke up, his words strikingly straightforward.

“Appear what?”

Adele was clearly confused, not quite understanding what this had to do with what she had been describing.

“Never mind, you continue.”

The Masked Man waved his hand with a smile, seemingly quite satisfied with how things were unfolding.

“… Anyway, I was also leaving with a group of people, but halfway through, I realized Henry was missing. Despite everyone’s objections, I sneaked back to look for him…”

During her explanation, Adele couldn’t help but once again reach out towards the cat.

“Then you discovered the current anomaly?”

Red Dragon glanced at the unmoved Fu Qian and interjected on the side.

“… Yes, I’ve lived here for several years and have never seen such a scene. Everything was fine when I left.”

Red Dragon’s tone was cautious, and Adele confirmed firmly.

“Although it’s miraculous, it doesn’t seem as terrifying as that person predicted… After all, not everyone has evacuated. If it were truly madness-inducing, it wouldn’t be this calm now.”

“It seems so, do you live nearby?”

The Masked Man nodded.

“We found Adele in a movie theater, searching everywhere.”

Lady Star directly stated before Adele could respond.

“Henry likes to go there.”

Adele explained softly.

“So this is just your pet cat?”

Fu Qian asked suddenly, his question a bit odd.

“… No.”

Facing Fu Qian, who was holding the cat by the neck, Adele dared not neglect him, yet hesitated before shaking her head.

“It belongs to my neighbor Paul, but Paul is very harsh to it.”

“Honesty is a virtue.”

Fu Qian nodded in approval and didn’t ask further.

“How do you know she’s telling the truth now?”

Unexpectedly, it was Skull, who hadn’t spoken for a while, who suddenly interrogated.

The reason might be he wasn’t fond of talking, his voice slightly hoarse but still sounding young.

And it was clear that among everyone, Skull was the least integrated into the team, his speech carrying a natural aura of skepticism.

And everyone, puzzled by Fu Qian’s previous question, chose to be spectators for the moment.

“It’s simple, there’s a collar on the cat’s neck.”

Fu Qian didn’t mind Skull’s rudeness and lifted Henry up.

His expression slightly disheartened, the cat’s head drooped, revealing a leather collar around its neck.

“But there’s no name of the owner on it.”

Skull was not so easily tricked and coldly spoke after just a glance.

“Correct, and it’s severely worn out.”

Fu Qian hooked the collar outward with a finger.

“So?”

Even Lady Star couldn’t help but ask at this point.

“One can see the size has been adjusted to the largest setting, yet it still appears slightly small. Though it doesn’t affect eating, it’s clearly uncomfortable to wear.”

“A person who risks their safety to come back for a cat, if this were her own pet, would she allow this to happen?”

Fu Qian pointed at the silent Adele.

“A more plausible explanation is that this isn’t her cat; she just looks after it often. And since the cat still goes home from time to time, she, not being the owner, couldn’t just remove the collar. She could only feel indignation at the inhumane treatment.”

“Her answer just now proves this.”

…

Though detailed, Fu Qian spoke quickly and soon finished explaining.

“Paul is a model… good-looking but a bad person, so Henry often runs over to my place.”

Looking unobjectionable to this deduction, Adele solemnly spoke.

“He even forgot to take him this time.”

“I was hoping that if I found Henry this time, I could legitimately take him home to look after.”

“I completely understand how you feel.”

Seeing this, the Masked Man nodded and softly consoled her.

“If you hadn’t found him in the cinema, where were you planning to go next?”

“The research facility over there.”

Adele naturally pointed to the building Fu Qian and another had just searched.

“The air conditioning there is always very strong, Henry likes going there too, and many people like him.”

“The reason I didn’t go there first is that it was almost the earliest to evacuate, and I thought it wouldn’t be easy for him to find food there.”

“I see…”

The Masked Man sounded thoughtful, then lightly patted Adele on the shoulder the next moment.

“Don’t worry, Henry will be well cared for.”

“Okay–”
Adele’s voice abruptly stopped.

Just as she looked up, the Masked Man smoothly drew a hand crossbow from his waist and pulled the trigger pointed at her forehead.

The bolt, with astonishing force, went straight through her skull.

A second later, screams followed.
