"Forget it!" Jing Yuan smiled at Fan Lu. "I only asked Charles to send you two to the Hall of Dawn to annoy him. Jing Nan is alright, but you two can just forget about it!"
Fanlu paused for a moment upon hearing this, but quickly regained his smile.
She slowly removed the clothes from her shoulders, letting them slip down to her chest, obscuring the last glimpse of her view.
"Really... are we giving up?"
She walked over as she spoke.
Jing Yuan smiled slightly but did not answer.
Fan Lu walked up to Jing Yuan, her full, snow-white breasts almost bursting out.
Jingyuan swallowed hard, watching this.
Since ancient times, even heroes have found it hard to resist the charms of a beautiful woman. Jingyuan was even thinking, "Why don't we eat her first and then talk about it later?"
Just as Jing Yuan was stunned, a dagger gleaming with blue light stabbed towards him.
Jingyuan raised his hand to block it.
Fanlu gripped the dagger with both hands and pressed down hard, causing her clothes to slide off to the ground.
Jingyuan looked Fanlu up and down before glancing at the dagger in her hand.
Do you think this thing can hurt me?
Upon closer inspection, Jing Yuan noticed a blue light blade on the black dagger. "A plasma blade! You guys have been hiding something this good!"
He snatched the dagger from Fanlu's hand, and Fanlu lost his balance and fell to the ground.
Looking at that undulating body, it would be impossible for Jing Yuan not to feel anything.
Jingyuan walked away, his back to Fanlu, and said, "Charles has no chance anymore. If you don't want to die, behave yourselves and be good citizens of the Lighthouse. If you want to be loyal to Charles, then go!"
After saying that, Jingyuan left.
……
Although Mark was promoted to city lord, he still slept in his original residence.
But his place was too small, and he couldn't fit anything in it.
Department heads sent over a huge amount of stuff, and even though it was all documents, there was nowhere to put it.
Therefore, Mark set up his office in the central command center.
At this moment, various documents were scattered all over the floor of the central command hall.
Mark sat at his desk, at a loss, while Ran Bing and Erica, who came to help him, were also going crazy.
Only Jingnan was relatively relaxed.
"Jingyuan, you're here!" Mark saw Jingyuan and quickly went over to him. "Come and help out too!"
Jing Yuan said, "I'm a military officer, and you want me to do a civil job?"
Mark paused for a second, "Am I not?"
Jing Yuan smiled and quickly changed the subject: "I found Fanti and Fanlu. They are hiding and conducting genetic experiments."
"Genetic experiments?"
"Yes, it seems to be a gene serum that can create superhuman warriors. They used it on Loreif. Loreif became a person with super strength, but he went berserk and out of control. I had no choice but to kill him."
"What about the Vatican and its laws?"
"He's locked up."
Jingyuan said in a low voice, "Have you thought about how to deal with Charles? You and Jingnan both told me not to kill him, but as long as he's alive, he's an unstable factor."
Mark hesitated for a moment, "Let's wait! Once we learn what you call 'Return to Origin' from the ground, Charles and Lord Morgan will change their minds."
Jingyuan had no choice, after all, Mark was too kind.
"Alright! I agree! But if another rebellion breaks out, I can't show any mercy."
Mark remained silent, only patting Jingyuan on the shoulder.
After their conversation, the two walked together toward Jingnan, who was standing nearby.
Mark asked, "Jingnan, how's the search result for the people on the ground?"
Jingnan shook his head. "This continent is so vast that finding a village is extremely difficult."
Jingyuan pondered for a moment and said, "In the future fragments I saw, the Mana ecosystem in that place was cleared out by them, and there are no Devouring Beasts left. There is a large area like this. The Lighthouse has been sailing in the sky for so many years, have you never encountered it even once?"
Jingnan looked at Jingyuan, "If what you say is true, there is a large area of purified land, there's no way we wouldn't have discovered it. Unless..."
Jingnan thought of a possibility: "Unless someone deliberately avoided it."
Mark and Jingnan exchanged a glance. Where had they been avoiding all these years?
"Could it be a densely populated ecological area?"
Apart from the last trip to Nirvana, the hunters' gathering missions never go to areas with dense ecosystems.
In their minds, it was a place even more terrifying than the wilderness.
But if no one has been there, how would they know how terrifying it is?
“I think we can give it a try!” Jing Yuan said. “Anyway, the Devouring Beast can’t fly yet. Let’s control the lighthouse to fly over and take a look. If it doesn’t work, we can escape.”
Jingnan caught a glimpse of something: "You said the Devouring Beasts 'don't' fly yet, does that mean in the future you see them, they will evolve the ability to fly?"
Jingyuan smiled and said, "Yes. Not to mention the future, even the Flower Calyx Beast we fought last time actually had the ability to fly briefly."
Mark, however, was getting anxious. He looked at Jingnan and said, "Let's start by searching in the nearest ecologically dense area!"
Jing Nan laughed and said, "What's the rush? You should wait until your city lord inauguration ceremony is over before you go."
Chapter 118 Remarks on the launch
It will be available at 12 noon today.
Ten chapters will be released consecutively after the book is published!
Thank you to all the readers for your comments, continued reading, monthly tickets, and donations!
These are the driving forces behind my writing.
Several readers gave my book very high praise, which gave me even more motivation.
As I mentioned in my previous remarks, I am a novice who has been unable to sign a contract for many years, so being able to sign a contract is already a great achievement.
Therefore, my goal is to finish writing a signed novel completely.
Just take a calm approach to the rest.
Let me also talk about the novel's plot.
When I was conceiving this novel, the later episodes of Ling Cage Season 2 had not yet been released, so there were two points I didn't consider: Charles entering the Abyss, Mark entering the laboratory, and the battle with Bai Yuekui, which was just a show for the ecosystem.
If I want to add these two points after the second season finale, the protagonist's inner motivation also needs to be changed, which would involve too many changes.
So I simply designed it so that the protagonist didn't know these two points, and also designed it so that too much time had passed and he forgot some details.
Dear readers, please forgive me when the protagonist is unaware that Charles can use the Abyss Walker in certain scenes!
Finally, I hope everyone will give us an initial order to support us!
Bow!
Chapter 119 The Lighthouse Changes Starting Today (Seeking First Subscription)
Two days after the hunters returned from the ground, a grand ceremony was held at the lighthouse.
Except for those in key positions, all the people of the lighthouse gathered on the outer ring of the lighthouse.
Mark alone occupies a high position.
The hunters were below him.
To prevent any unforeseen circumstances, they did not bring Morgan out for this succession ceremony.
Although Morgan didn't make it, Mark already held a very high position in the hearts of the people.
His succession as city lord was arranged by Morgan himself.
That's perfectly legitimate!
Mark was also a hero in the hearts of the Dust People. He used to share his food with them and treat them as human beings.
He became the city lord.
It is exactly what everyone has been hoping for!
Therefore, Morgan's absence has no impact whatsoever.
Jingyuan was dressed in a black robe, with Bai Yuekui's Tang sword Alaya-vijnana hanging at his waist.
He will preside over Mark's succession ceremony as the head of the Light and Shadow Society.
Jing Yuan looked at the crowd below and said loudly, "People of the Lighthouse! As you all know, two days ago, the former leader Charles launched a coup in an attempt to kill the Wilderness Hunters in order to seize the position of city lord."
