Soon, everyone in Dragon Bone Village boarded the elevator platform, while the hunters remained on high alert, holding the "second line of defense"!
Jing Yuan glanced back and quickly said, "Everyone, go up!"
Upon hearing the order, the hunters quickly turned around and jumped onto the elevator platform.
The platform slowly rose, and several Devouring Beasts rushed over, heading straight for the platform.
A Devouring Beast used its powerful jumping ability to leap directly onto the platform.
A group of hunters immediately opened fire and shot him down.
Seeing that the platform had risen to a certain height, Jingyuan also retreated back into the air.
He looked up and saw that the plains were now teeming with Devouring Beasts.
Chapter 188 You angered Him!
Before Mark's convoy even reached Dragonbone Village, they encountered villagers who were walking along the way.
Bai Yuekui had already arrived and used the Swift spaceship to transport some people.
Bai Yuekui arranged for someone to pilot the Swift spaceship to the lighthouse, while she and Master Lai stayed behind.
Mark walked towards Bai Yuekui and said, "Jingyuan sent word that a large number of Devouring Beasts have entered the shielded zone and are heading towards the lighthouse. We may not be able to make it in time, so we need to prepare for battle!"
Bai Yuekui shook his head, "Don't take action unless absolutely necessary!"
Mark looked puzzled, but didn't ask any further questions.
Dragonbone Village only has a few hundred people. The four vehicles and the spaceship had taken some people there before, and the rest of the people were all crammed into these eight vehicles.
These eight vehicles vary in size and space, but we had to make do with what we had.
In addition, more than twenty enlightened practitioners were left outside.
There was no way to squeeze in.
But it doesn't matter, these Awakened Ones are all experts. By maintaining their Return to Origin state, the Devouring Beasts cannot detect them.
After the group of people from Longgu Village boarded the bus, they set off again in a grand procession.
Fortunately, the entire route was flat, so even if some people were hanging on the vehicle, they wouldn't be shaken off.
Halfway through the journey, a Devouring Beast charged at them.
Jing Yuan also came with the Devouring Beast.
Mark drove the car, glancing at Bai Yuekui, who was sharing a seat with Tasia and Xia Dou, and asked, "The Devouring Beasts are here, are you really not going to make a move?"
"Don't worry! Master Lai will take care of it!"
Looking at the Devouring Beasts around him, Master Lai released his aura as a high-level Devouring Beast.
This time, he added targeted mental energy to the pressure.
Whenever a Devouring Beast gets close to them, they will feel the pressure from the high-level Devouring Beast.
Therefore, after the dozens of Devouring Beasts approached the convoy, they did not attack them, but instead followed them closely.
Within the territory of a high-level Devouring Beast, a low-level Devouring Beast dares not act recklessly.
However, outside the domain, unless a high-level Devouring Beast actively attacks a low-level Devouring Beast, there is no way to prevent them from following.
Jingyuan flew through the air and followed along.
From here to the lighthouse, although the Devouring Beasts kept a watchful eye on the area, none of them stepped forward.
The lighthouse's elevator platform descended again, and the sound of mechanical movement attracted the Devouring Beasts. They actually climbed onto the elevator platform and even prepared to climb up the ropes!
Seeing this, Jing Yuan shouted to the ground, "There's no other way, you guys get on the platform right now!"
After saying that, Jing Yuan immediately rushed up and killed the Devouring Beast that was climbing up the rope.
Once they made their move, the Devouring Beasts went berserk once again.
There were eight vehicles on the ground, and the two lifting platforms on the lighthouse were lowered simultaneously.
The ropes connecting the lifting platform were almost entirely covered with Devouring Beasts.
There were also many Devouring Beasts on the elevator platform.
Jingyuan alone cannot handle this.
Fortunately, at this moment, the Awakened Walkers from Dragonbone Village rushed up and repelled the Devouring Beasts on the platform.
The vehicles can only proceed after the Devouring Beasts on the platform have been cleared.
In the crowd, Xu Tong inserted a device into Shan Da's abdomen to create a spirit missile.
Xu Tong's release of a spirit-guided bullet did indeed attract many Devouring Beasts to leave.
However, there are too many Devouring Beasts, and there are still quite a few Devouring Beasts on the platform.
At that moment, several gravity bodies flew down from the lighthouse.
Among them are Flying Snow and Erica.
Erica immediately launched her fire support, repelling a group of Devouring Beasts.
With the combined efforts of the two sides, the Devouring Beasts on the platform were finally cleared out, allowing the vehicle to drive in smoothly.
Once the vehicle was secured, the platform rose. The remaining Devouring Beasts on the ropes were then killed one by one by Jing Yuan!
Jing Yuan rushed to the ground and launched another attack on the Devouring Beast. He also used his battle blade to harvest the spirit seeds of the dead Devouring Beast and absorbed another wave of life essence.
Master Lai, who was floating in the air, saw this scene and seemed to understand why these Devouring Beasts had gone berserk!
As more and more Devouring Beasts gathered around, Jing Yuan was unable to cope and had no choice but to follow them onto the lighthouse.
The lifting platform rose to the height of the outer ring platform, where everyone gathered.
Even though the outer ring platform of the lighthouse is only three or four hundred meters away from the lighthouse, they can still see the Devouring Beasts on the ground from here.
The people in Longgu Village are alright; they are relatively calm.
The people on the lighthouse had never seen anything like it before, and they were terrified, even more so than during Charles's rebellion!
After all, Charles's rebellion was a power struggle among the high command. Regardless of who won, they all had a way to survive; the only difference was whether they lived a better or worse life.
But when facing the Devouring Beast, everyone only has one path: death!
Jing Yuan flew to Bai Yuekui's side and asked, "Have all your people arrived?"
Bai Yuekui nodded, "They've all arrived!"
Jingyuan sighed and said, "Finally, I can take a breather!"
Since returning from Steelflame Fortress, Jingyuan has been constantly traveling and fighting without taking a break.
Bai Yuekui was somewhat surprised; Jing Yuan's stamina was actually quite good.
No one knew that the reason Jing Yuan was able to fight at such a high intensity for so long was entirely because he could absorb the life essence of the Devouring Beast!
By absorbing the life essence, his strength was enhanced and his physical strength was restored!
Jing Yuan finally killed these Devouring Beasts and absorbed a lot of life essence. Although he still had physical strength to spare, his spirit was about to collapse and he desperately needed rest.
“Jingyuan!” Penny walked out from the crowd.
Jingyuan looked at Penny and quickly asked, "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine!"
I noticed you seemed to be experiencing some health issues earlier!
Penny shook her head and smiled, "It's nothing."
Jingyuan nodded, then walked over to Mark, patted Mark on the shoulder, and said, "Let's settle these people first!"
"it is good!"
After Jingyuan finished speaking, he left the crowd and returned to his residence with Penny.
Penny went to get some food for Jingyuan, but when she came back, she found that Jingyuan had already fallen asleep.
……
The people of Dragonbone Village came to the Lighthouse for refuge because it was an emergency, so the containment procedures were not followed.
Mark temporarily housed the people of Dragonbone Village in places such as the armory and the church.
Their immediate priority is to control the lighthouse to take off and escape the pursuit of these Devouring Beasts.
The Devouring Beasts below the lighthouse sensed the large amount of life essence on it and began to pile up on top of each other again.
Before long, a small mountain formed by the Devouring Beasts appeared below the lighthouse.
……
Jingyuan rested in his room for less than two hours, and in his dream, he actually saw Master Lai!
Jingyuan looked at Master Lai with a puzzled expression and asked, "Is this a dream? Or... are you communicating with me telepathically?"
"I am communicating with you on a spiritual level!"
Jing Yuan smiled helplessly and said, "What's the matter? Can't we talk about it after I wake up? The Devouring Beasts shouldn't have attacked yet!"
