Chapter 224 Return to the lighthouse, night talk

I am...

Have you been spotted?

Jon looked back.

After thinking for a while, he didn't say anything, just waved his hand.

Farewell to Bai Yuekui and others.

He came to the place where the Hunter team was trapped.

The door is locked from the inside out.

However, this is not a problem for Jon.

After all, he is an expert at opening doors.

The mind moves slightly.

A 'squeak' sound.

The door opened smoothly.

"Ready to fire!"

"Up, up, up!"

"A hunter will never die on his knees!"

Good guy.

There was almost an "open door kill".

Jon shouted quickly: "Don't shoot! It's me!"

There was silence inside for a few seconds.

Then, came the response.

"Are you human?"

Jon said angrily: "Nonsense! I'm not a human being, how can I still be a pole-devouring beast?"

"Prove! We need proof!"

Jon:......

Despite the fact that the hunting team is usually not normal.

At this time, it is prudent to make people feel distressed.

He cleared his throat and said, "I am Jon, the advisor to the Lord of Lighthouse City. On the order of Lord Mark, I came to support the hunter team and asked the commander of Mo City to come out and talk."

Not long after, a 'heavy stereo' slowly walked out of the darkness.

It was the ‘White Shark No. 10’ driven by Mo Cheng.

Seeing Jon, he showed an incredulous expression, "Is it really you?!"

"Who else could it be if it wasn't me?" Jon approached the other party, "How are the casualties of the Hunter team?"

Mo Cheng smiled bitterly, "We encountered a subspecies of pole-devouring beast. The electronic equipment was seriously interfered with and the casualties were heavy...

But we have collected enough energy to keep the lighthouse flying for another three months, and it has all been loaded onto the transport truck."

Jon nodded.

Immediately afterwards, he said: "This is not the place to talk. Come back to the lighthouse with me immediately!"

Although Mo Cheng was full of doubts, he knew that now was not the best time to ask.

Meeting Jon's eyes, the new hunter commander walked into the darkness again.

Soon.

He brought out a group of miserable hunters and some pale-faced dustmen.

There is danger in the last days, so be careful when entering the pit.

Jon sighed silently.

We still need to have more children. If we don’t have more children, we won’t be able to replenish the population. It’s all in vain...

etc.

What do I want these for?

Shake his head.

Jon said loudly: "Come with me quickly, the pole-devouring beast outside will be resurrected soon."

Hearing this, everyone's expressions were a little strange.

There are so many pole-devouring beasts and subspecies of pole-devouring beasts out there, have they all been dealt with?

"Don't just stand there, are you going to leave?" Jon urged.

"Go, of course, I don't want to stay in this ghost place for a moment anymore." Mo Cheng waved his hand, "The entire hunter team obeys the order and immediately leaves the resource point and returns to the lighthouse!"

As a commander, regardless of whether he is reliable or not, Mo Cheng's words still carry a lot of weight.

Under the leadership of Jon, the hunter team evacuated in an orderly manner.

Come outside.

Seeing the corpses of the Devouring Beasts all over the ground, the hunters and dustmen looked at Jon with a hint of awe in their eyes.

Working alone with bare hands, not even a 'heavy three-dimensional'

——This guy is the God of War, right?!

Jon was stunned for a moment.

Reacted immediately.

He coughed lightly and said, "It's just a small fight, not worth mentioning."

Okay, very strong.

With these words thrown out, the character is finally established.

certainly.

Not everyone believed Jon's lies.

For example, the sniper Feixue was keenly aware that the pole-devouring beasts either died from knife wounds or blunt objects, or were beaten into sieves by heavy firepower.

No matter what the situation is, it seems that it has nothing to do with the consultant...

emmmm

At this time, it's better to just shut up.

Because the pole-devouring beasts and the spine Gu group were all killed by Bai Yuekui and the others, the evacuation of Jon and others was extremely smooth.

It went so smoothly that they themselves were a little surprised.

It felt like it suddenly changed from hell difficulty to normal difficulty.

The hunters were moved to tears.

Woo woo woo.

Finally, I don’t have to worry anymore.

...

...

Lighthouse, ‘Central Command Room’.

"Communications restored!"

"Advisor Jon has successfully rendezvoused with Commander Mocheng!"

"The Hunter team suffered heavy casualties, but its structure is still intact."

"The resources have been collected and are expected to be enough for the lighthouse to fly for three months."

"Advisor Jon and Commander Mocheng requested evacuation."

Jing Nan took a deep breath and said, "I agree. Please ask Advisor Jon and Commander Mocheng to evacuate and return to the lighthouse as soon as possible."

After saying this, she collapsed directly on the chair, as if all her strength had been drained away.

Very good.

How wonderful!

Not only did consultant Jon, who went to the rescue alone, there was no accident.

Even the Hunter team was not completely wiped out.

Moreover, the resources needed for the lighthouse were also found!

She turned to look at Mark and said, "Report to the City Lord that the lighthouse has not been destroyed today."

Mark said solemnly: "Thank you for your hard work, whether it's you, consultant Jon, or Mo Cheng and the others.

All of you are the cornerstone of the lighthouse."

Jing Nan smiled and said nothing.

Bing Bingzi noticed Mark's loss and quietly held his hand.

Feeling the warmth in his palm, Mark felt warm in his heart.

Yes, everyone is the cornerstone and an indispensable part.

Only he, the city lord, played almost zero role in this crisis.

Whether it's decision-making, remote command, or actual action.

He did nothing...

Seeing that the sun was about to set, Jon and the hunter team finally came back.

Through the lift platform, everyone returned to the lighthouse.

On the way to the resource reserve, they received an unprecedented warm welcome!

"Heroes, you are heroes!"

"Hunter, welcome back!"

"Counsellor Jon, Captain Mocheng, look here!"

"You are good!"

Ordinary civilians and civilians may not be aware of the crisis of the lighthouse's emergency landing, but they can see the damage to the suspended propeller.

It's fine now.

With the resources, they can repair the propellers and allow the lighthouse to continue flying.

As the city lord, Mark personally welcomed the heroes of the lighthouse

——Jon and the hunters.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Seeing Mark, Mo Cheng showed a hint of shame in his eyes.

"Captain Mark... No, Lord City Lord, I have let you down."

"Mo Cheng, we are companions who have been injured and bled together. I know the situation on the ground better than you. Facing the Devouring Beast, being able to save one's life is already the greatest military achievement."

With that said, Mark patted Mo Cheng on the shoulder, "Thank you for your hard work. You did a good job."

Yo.

Mark, who only knows how to kill extreme beasts and hoe the earth, actually knows how to win over people's hearts!?

Jon raised his lips.

At this time, Mark looked over.

"Counsellor Jon, I have to thank you on behalf of all the members of the Lighthouse.

Without you, the lighthouse might be afraid this time..."

"Don't say that, after all, I am also a member of the Lighthouse."

Jon shrugged, "Crash landing at the lighthouse is not good for me."

After a pause, he continued: "I'll tell you something more private later."

Private things?

Mark scratched the back of his head, nodded and agreed: "Okay, after arranging the supplies, we will go to the study to discuss it in detail."

Jon doesn't need to worry about sorting things out and returning them to the warehouse.

After driving the individual combat mecha completely back to the combat reserve, he returned to his exclusive room and took a nice shower.

After dinner, Mark was done with his work.

The two met in the study room.

Once inside, Jon opened the secret room with ease.

Countless question marks popped up above Mark's head.

no.

Is this your study or mine?

Why do you feel like you are more familiar with this place than me?

Meeting Mark's confused eyes, Jon explained: "The old city lord told me some secrets about the lighthouse.

I feel that these secrets cannot be known to me alone, so I want to tell you."

mark:......

After a long silence, he said: "Counsellor Jon, why don't you take over as the city lord? I'm really not suitable."

"We'll talk about this later." Jon waved his hand.

After saying that, he took a big step and entered the secret room first.

Mark hesitated for a second and then walked in.

The environment of the secret room is undoubtedly more private than the study room.

The two sat opposite each other.

Jon said: "Don't get excited when you hear what I say next."

Mark didn't know why, "Why, you encountered a monarch-level pole-devouring beast again?"

"More exciting than the Sovereign Level Devouring Beast, I met survivors on the ground." Jon raised a finger and said calmly.

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, Mark stood up immediately.

He stared at Jon, "Survivors on the ground! You mean, there are still humans on the ground?"

"Yes, and more than one.

Do you still remember the last time we encountered a monarch-level pole-eating beast and was rescued by a mysterious white-haired short-haired woman? I met her again this time.

She calls herself Bai Yuekui."

"Bai Yuekui..." Mark repeated the name.

Then, he couldn't sit still anymore.

He walked back and forth in the secret room, muttering to himself: "I knew it! I knew there must be humans on the ground! Great! There is hope for the lighthouse!"

Jon spoke at the right time: "Not only that, humans on the ground have also developed a strange technology that is different from that of the lighthouse.

I suspect that they can use the "source" of life."

If you don't say anything shocking, you will die.

Mark opened his mouth and was completely speechless.

The "source" of life is something that only the Devouring Beast can absorb. Without the "source" of life, humans will turn into shells and become flesh and earth.

And now, this strange energy can also be used by humans?

Simply incredible!

"I told you not to get excited..."

Jon felt helpless.

"Do you have any contact information? You and that... By the way, Bai Yuokui, have you left your contact information with Bai Yuokui?" Mark asked eagerly.

Jon shook his head.

"No."

The conversation changed, "But..."

He looked at the livid Mark with amusement, "Humans on the ground seem to be able to sense the location of the "source" of life. In other words, they can feel the lighthouse at any time.

As long as we proactively send out signals, they can see it."

"That's it~"

Mark rubbed his hands.

Although he now wants to contact the survivors on the ground to find a way out for the lighthouse humans, he thinks that the current situation of the lighthouse is not very good.

Therefore, he tried his best to suppress the thoughts in his mind.

"After the lighthouse's thruster is completely repaired, we will decide whether to establish contact with the survivors on the ground." He said word by word.

Jon raised his second finger, "Okay, this is the first secret I want to tell you, and now it's time for the second one."

The second one?!

Mark swallowed unconsciously.

Jon said: "Through long-term observation, I found that you are different from ordinary humans.

At first, I thought it was the result of genetic optimization and selection of human race, but later I found out..."

He pointed at Mark and said, "You don't seem to be human."

mark:......

What does it mean that I am not a human being?

Don't I look human?

He looked at Jon suspiciously.

Jon explained: "Normal humans don't have such a strong physical fitness as you. This cannot be explained by just one sentence of genetic optimization.

If you have not practiced some special skills or abilities, then you absolutely cannot be human.

And let me tell you clearly, there is a cut brain in the core area of ​​the lighthouse. The race is unknown, but it is definitely not a human brain.

You, Mark, are the baby found by the first city owner of the lighthouse based on the revelation of the brain."

Mark was dumbfounded.

Compared with the survivors on the ground, the information that is obviously related to themselves is more shocking.

"But it's not right... I have a sister..." Mark's mind was in confusion.

Jon patted him on the shoulder, "I don't quite understand the specific situation.

In short, I have told you everything I know."

Mark was silent for a long time.

He took a long breath and said, "I want to say thank you. Also, please don't tell others this news for the time being."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "What are you going to do?" Jon asked.

Hearing this, Mark showed his usual hearty smile, "Whether I am a human or not, as you said, I am a member of the lighthouse.

Now, he is the city lord who protects all the people of the lighthouse!

What else could happen?

I'm going to do what I have to do, that's all."

Goodness also has its benefits.

At least it makes you feel that this person is very sincere.

Originally, Jon had planned to enjoy being the city lord himself, but now, his idea has become less and less...

Pursing his lips, Jon raised his third finger, "Then, here's the third secret."

Mark looked at Jon and said, "Wait a moment and let me sit down first. I'm afraid I won't be able to bear the blow."

Jon was secretly amused, "Actually, it's nothing, I just want to tell you that human mood swings will attract pole-devouring beasts.

The last time the lighthouse was attacked by a subspecies of pole-devouring beast, it was most likely because the mood inside the lighthouse fluctuated too much. This is also the reason why City Lord Morgan established the 'Three Rules'.

The emotion of "love" is like a firefly in the dark in the apocalypse, it is too dazzling."

Hearing this, Mark felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

How could it be?

It turns out...it turns out to be like this!

Ran Bing's figure flashed in his mind.

"I...I know...I will take care of everything..."

Seeing Mark feeling so uncomfortable, Jon knew what the big man was thinking, and said angrily: "Please, you are someone who openly resisted power for the sake of love. Now, do you want to give up love for stability?

Adults, you need to grab it with both hands, both hands need to be hard!

If you dare to feel sorry for Bing Bingzi and don’t tell anyone else, you won’t be able to pass my test!”

Mark was extremely confused, "But..."

Jon looked like he hated iron, "Please think about it with your mind. Since humans on the ground can reproduce to this day and have not been destroyed by the Devouring Beast, it means that they have a technology that can hide their emotions without being discovered.

Mark's eyes lit up, "Yeah, why didn't I think of that!"

It seems that contacting survivors on the ground is imminent.

He has not forgotten that he promised to start a family with Ran Bing.

If possible, he would also like to hold a unique wedding like the humans in the old world...
