Chapter 143 Hearing thunder in the middle of the night
When entering the ecologically dense area of T69, the heavy equipment of the Hunter team was two jumping spiders and four heavy planes. When they returned to the lighthouse, they had five more biological armors.
Because while passing by the areas of Dihou and Snake Dog, Mu Chenxing built two more experimental models.
They are the earth-roaring pan-biological armor that focuses on long-range attacks, and the snake-dog pan-biological armor that is responsible for frontal combat.
Erica, the big lolita, grabbed the ground roar by rolling around wildly. Mu Chenxing designed a rechargeable continuous-fire rapid-fire machine gun based on her fighting style.
Of course, the rate of fire is not as good as her original weapon Gatling, but it is not slow either. One charge can produce a thousand rounds of energy bombs in the cannon's magazine, and fire them out at a rate of 300 rounds per minute.
The power of energy bombs is much greater than that of gunpowder weapons, and they are fully capable of the task of fire suppression.
The Snake Dog is much more satisfactory. It is a melee-type armor without any additional functions. Compared with the Spiny Eel, its strength and defense have been enhanced, but its speed and flexibility have been reduced a lot.
Finally, it fell into Jeff's hands. The fighting style of the eel armor was more suitable for Mocheng.
The hunter team now only has Feixue and Mark who don't have biological armor.
Feixue doesn't like the generic type, and she likes Ran Bing's sniper armor very much.
Mark was too embarrassed to compete with the team members, so he could only continue to use his Daybreak. In fact, he was thinking of leading people to hunt down a few metamorphosis pole beasts and get an evolved armor for each team member.
But even if there are only two evolved types and three generic types, the combat power of the elite hunters has been greatly improved.
Biological armor is much more flexible and powerful than the heavy three-dimensional armor. Instructor Elon can already use the armor to perform fighting skills, which is something that the heavy three-dimensional armor cannot even imagine.
As he became more and more proficient in control, the old man was obviously a little bit arrogant, and he had already announced that he would hit ten marks.
Just kidding, but the team members who participated in this mission all understood one thing. The relationship between hunters and prey should be reversed. The day when humans counterattack the ground and drive out the pole-devouring beasts is coming!
It was already evening when we returned to the lighthouse. Mu Chenxing did not participate in Mark's gathering of hunters, but leisurely began a tour of the lighthouse. The data scanned by the Exploration Eye, and seeing with his own eyes and listening with his own ears
, the artistic conception is completely different, and the scenery of another world can only be interesting if you participate in it.
The message of the crisis has been conveyed and the power has been given to Mark. If he still does nothing, then there is no need for him to stay in the lighthouse.
Let the city lord Morgan and his son Charles fend for themselves with these prisoners trapped in the air.
Fortunately, Mark lived up to Mu Chenxing's special one-day stay for him.
After meeting the city lord that night and realizing that the conflict of ideas was too great to reconcile, this honest man who only knew how to fight the beast finally made his decision.
In the middle of the night, the elite hunter team raided the Light and Shadow Society. The five biological armors were invincible. The heavy structures supported by the city defense army and the Light and Shadow Society were destroyed in just half an hour. More than 20 of them were destroyed.
The armored forces completely lost their ability to resist.
The tanks and heavy bodies of the Hunters moved next and quickly rushed towards key parts. The sound of guns and cannons was like a violent storm, and the lighthouse was suddenly thrown into a state of turmoil.
The chaos started suddenly and ended quickly. The Waste Hunters were already the most powerful force. Their equipment and personnel quality far exceeded that of the city defense army and the Light and Shadow Society. Coupled with the powerful biological armor, the enemy could not stop them at all.
Their advance.
In just a few hours, the lighthouse was fully occupied by hunters.
Mark's reputation was fully revealed during this operation. Most of the people who rushed out from various areas joined the hunter camp. This does not include the dustmen living in the hoisting area, where 89%
Everyone is surrounded by him.
"Why?"
When Mark defeated the Light and Shadow Society and the city defense army, killed the leader of the society, Charles, and his loyal lackeys, he brought the men of the hunter army to the city lord Morgan.
This old man who has been the city lord for twenty-one years and controls the fate of the lighthouse is full of doubts.
In his impression, the hunters were always conscientious and had no ambitions. The sudden mutiny caught him off guard.
"In order to live." Mark had no hatred towards the city lord, he was just telling his point of view calmly: "In order to truly live.
Corey risked his life to bring supplies to the lighthouse, but was injured but could not receive medical treatment;
Teacher Elon has worked hard all his life, but will be exiled when he gets old;
Those commoner porters do the heaviest work, eat the cheapest food, but bear the cruelest shackles, have no names, cannot receive medical treatment, and can only die in humiliation;
1225 Giving up one's own life to save a loved one is considered a crime.
The breeding tasks in Dawn Hall never take into account personal wishes, and those who dare to refuse will be executed. Those women who give birth to babies will face punishment for even holding their own children.
As a part of the lighthouse, we cannot have family affection or love, otherwise we will be executed. What is the difference between living like this and a cold corpse?"
Facing his questioning, Commander Jing Nan of the navigation control room who rushed to the city main hall with his team after being captured sighed sadly.
Victor, the commander of the city defense army who was also captured, angrily rebuked: "Shut up, rebellion is rebellion, who are you showing off by pretending to be a saint?"
He did have reason to be angry. The city defense army had suffered heavy casualties in the past few hours.
When he was still about to curse, the city lord Morgan raised his hand to stop him. If he didn't stop him, his old subordinate would definitely suffer.
There's no need to be so excited, it won't help.
How could Morgan not know about the problems on the lighthouse, but what could he do if he knew it? He asked Mark: "Do you know how much energy and materials the lighthouse consumes every minute?"
He did formulate three inhumane laws, and the strict enforcement of laws by the Light and Shadow Society came from his instructions, but he did so for the continuation of mankind.
To survive in the last days, you will always have to face choices. Being soft-hearted and kind will lead everyone to perdition.
Ask yourself, he is worthy of being a lighthouse.
Ignoring the weapons in the hands of the hunters in the hall, he approached Mark step by step and asked: "You only know that there will be population replenishment after the battle, but do you know how much materials it takes to train a hunter?
You only see the lighthouse abandoning your injured comrades, but do you know that treating a seriously injured hunter will make many ordinary people unable to even eat worm cakes?
You think the lighthouse drove the old people to the ground, but do you know how many newborn babies will starve to death by feeding people who have no ability to contribute?
The lighthouse does not need to control the breeding population, but when the population exceeds the upper limit, do you decide which people to abandon?
There are now 6,355 earthly citizens and 5,103 superior citizens on the lighthouse. Tell me, how should I feed them?"
The city lord stared into Mark's eyes, both angry and sad. This was the person he and his teacher had high hopes for. This was the hope of mankind that the lighthouse had paved a road with corpses and brought back.
As a result, he led his people in rebellion.
The dead city defense soldiers, the priests of the Light and Shadow Society, and the damaged weapons and equipment were all the lighthouse relied on to survive in the apocalypse, and they were destroyed in the civil strife.
"We were all wrong." Morgan sighed, feeling filled with despair.
"We can go to the ground. Once there, there will be more space for residential areas, and there will be enough space to expand cultivation and livestock areas. Food output will naturally increase, and all problems will be solved." Mark thought about how to feed himself.
Population on the lighthouse.
Morgan glanced at the biological mechas that appeared in the hall and asked disdainfully: "Is it just your new mechas? Give up your childish ideas. Humans are no longer the masters of the world. We can't deal with it.
The Devouring Beast."
"How many years has it been since the city lord has been to the ground? You don't know anything about pole-eating beasts and ground collection. With these few armors, the materials I can collect are enough to feed the people on the lighthouse for a long time, and this
A period of time is enough to build a batch of these armors and then counterattack on the ground."
Mark vowed: "I can do it."
"Now that the matter has come to this, what can we do?" Morgan shook his head dejectedly, and after sighing for a while, he said bitterly: "I will pass on the position of city lord to you. The lighthouse cannot be messed up. This is the last refuge of mankind.
Already."
This mutiny that started in the middle of the night and ended in the early morning finally confirmed the fourth city owner of the lighthouse.
The ceremony was held at dawn.
As soon as Mark took office, he revoked the three laws, also abolished the formula of life and the old man's journey.
The Society of Light and Shadow has not been cancelled. There are too many people who believe in the Lord of Light and Shadow. He does not agree with some of Morgan's practices, but there is nothing wrong with the principle that lighthouses cannot be messed up.
In the last days, people are in panic, and they are either driven to madness, or have a belief. The lighthouse needs the church, but the Law School can no longer be controlled by the Light and Shadow Society.
Not only were the privileges of the Legal Training Institute deprived, but all privileges were also deprived, and the Light and Shadow Society became a completely non-governmental organization.
Mark also found a group of people who believed in the birth of faith among the hunters and porters who had been rescued by Mu Chenxing. He supported them in establishing the Morning Star Society and began to promote the Lord of Morning Star, shouting "Morning Star is here, hope returns."
, a better world will surely come” to attract believers.
In order to dilute the influence of the light and shadow association.
In the next few days, status levels were abolished, family relationships were restored, ordinary people renamed and registered their identities, genes were retested, and work categories were divided into warriors, logistics, and scholars.
There were also matters such as assigning people to take control of key departments, cultivating new biological armor embryonic stem cells, building medical warehouses, and expanding the medical area. Mark was extremely busy.
"You created the Dawn Meeting, it's really harmful to people. I'm surrounded by people everywhere I go now, it's very annoying." Mu Chenxing sat in the city lord's hall, complaining boredly to the current city lord.
He is equivalent to the main god of civilization on Earth, but he is not a religious god. He has never seen the fanatical believers here in the lighthouse, and he is very uncomfortable with it.
"I'm surprised. I don't look like the god they imagined. I'm not as godly as the Lord of Light and Shadow. By the way, do you know what the Lord of Light and Shadow is?" He asked Mark in confusion.
"In our eyes, you are God." Mark's answer was very serious, and he also answered seriously about the Lord of Light and Shadow: "I have never seen it."
This answer disappointed Mu Chenxing. In the memories of Charles and many people, the Lord of Light and Shadow did appear, but no one knew the specific information.
He actually hoped that it was a powerful creature, or a higher-level life form, so that he could gain more knowledge and accumulate experimental materials.
It's a pity that there are no clues at all. I scanned the entire earth and found nothing. It is probably gone.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense. The Clotto system has been restarted and the biological half-brain has been repaired. It is easy to manage a lighthouse with 10,000 people. As long as you don't calculate the future of mankind and other brain-dead issues, basically
It won’t freeze again.”
Mu Chenxing stood up and asked seriously: "Have you thought about how to build a new home after returning to the ground? Is it to build a city-state and become the king, or some other social structure?"
"I don't know, I just want to take them to live well."
Mark feels that he is a warrior. He collects more supplies, cultivates more biological armors, leads the lighthouse people to counterattack the ground, obtains a larger living space, and then expands the planting area, obtains more food, and feeds more children.
, done.
Lighthouse has perfect soilless cultivation technology. As long as there is a safe space, he feels that feeding more people is not a problem.
"I have never thought about being a king, and I don't understand social structure or anything like that. It's enough for everyone to work together and work together to survive. People in the last days don't have so many ideas." This is what he said in his heart.
"Did you know? I left some information in the Cloto system. You can take a look at it when you have time. I think it should be of some help to you.
People's needs are always changing. After survival is met, new needs will inevitably appear. Before returning to the ground, you must determine a corresponding social structure to avoid trouble." Mu Chenxing gave his own advice.
Mark heard what was said and replied seriously: "I will go and see it." After a pause, he asked reluctantly: "Are you leaving?"
"Yes, I'm leaving." Mu Chenxing said with a smile, "But there is one more thing to do before I leave."
Before he finished speaking, the invitation to join the board of directors was sent to Mark.
This 1.9 meter strong man has muscles all over his body and a strong sense of fighting, but surprisingly he is an honest man and not so frivolous.
And when faced with major events, he can make decisive decisions, has great mobility, has good empathy, and can see the weak in his eyes.
It's pretty good. It has passed my own test.
"Pan-Earth Alliance Council?" Mark read the information directly delivered to his mind. He was full of doubts about this cross-universe organization, but he still decided to join.
"I believe in you!" He looked at Mu Chenxing seriously and explained his reasons for joining.
"It's an honor." Mu Chenxing smiled and waved his hand, and his figure disappeared instantly, leaving only a blessing in the group to welcome the new director.
When he appeared again, he was already hundreds of kilometers away from the lighthouse.
Several people around him were scared to death. Only a woman with short white hair could remain calm. She stared at her big eyes and said seriously: "I have seen you, and you must have seen me too."
