Lighthouse, law firm.

"Master, Master, good news, good news!"

Suddenly, a wretched guy ran into the empty hall and came to Charles with an excited look on his face.

Looking at this man, Charles raised his eyebrows slightly, "Oh, good news?"

"Master, I just heard a piece of news that Captain Mark and his men suddenly had a conflict with the city defense forces in the medical center.

The situation is now at a stalemate. It seems that the reason is that Ran Bing and several female wasteland hunters suddenly had physical abnormalities.

It seems like it is about to transform into a humanoid beast."

Hearing this, Charles, who had originally not cared, was now stunned and extremely surprised.

"What you said is true. An Extreme Devouring Beast has appeared inside the Wasteland Hunters!"

"Uh! Mr. Chairman, I'm not sure about this either!"

Seeing Charles' expression, the man couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

He just heard some information and ran over to report it. How could he be sure whether there was an Extreme Beast?

Seeing this guy avoiding his gaze, the joy on Charles' face froze.

"You said you weren't sure?"

"Ah, this, should, probably, maybe"

"Pfft!"

"Master, I really heard the words of a humanoid beast. Otherwise, I would not dare to say anything even if I had a hundred courages."

As he spoke, the man broke out in a cold sweat, and when he saw Charles' increasingly cold eyes staring at him, he immediately knelt on the ground.

At this moment, he was extremely regretful. He should have collected more information so that he wouldn't be in the current situation where he knew nothing.

After taking a look at this guy, Charles stood up with a cold face, straightened his clothes, and strode out with the Light Bearer.

He knew that his men were a bunch of good-for-nothings and he couldn't expect too much from them.

Otherwise you'll get so angry that you die.

Now he wants to go to the medical clinic himself to see what is going on.

On the other side, inside the medical clinic.

After Ran Bing and others came down from the testing equipment, they were protected by many members of the Wasteland Hunter team.

And at the front, Mark was confronting the city defense forces, neither side giving in.

Mark knew the situation of Ran Bing and others. Although he didn't know what happened, he absolutely couldn't let them be taken away privately by the city defense army.

Otherwise, the situation at that time will be very unfavorable to them.

If it were just the city defense troops, he wouldn't be worried. What he was most worried about was that bastard Charles.

Charles has always been looking for trouble with him, and this time he will definitely not let him go after knowing the news.

Therefore, the best situation now is to protect Ran Bing and the others first, and then go to see the city lord.

By then, everything will be laid out for discussion, and Charles will have no chance to play tricks.

"Captain Mark, please don't make things difficult for us. Adjutant Ran Bing and the others have experienced unknown changes in their bodies.

Although we don't know what caused this change, according to the doctors' tests at the clinic, their physical data has changed in all aspects.

This is far beyond the scope of human beings, so for the sake of everyone and the lighthouse, it is best to isolate them separately and then conduct further tests. "

Seeing the determination of Mark and others, Xi Chen, the commander of the city defense army in charge of guarding the medical center, couldn't help but soften his voice.

He really didn't want to provoke Mark. After all, Mark had a high status in the lighthouse, and offending him would be a thankless task.

“Captain Xichen, I will personally explain the details of this matter to the city lord, and I won’t make it difficult for you.

As for the safety issue, I think with our strength as wasteland hunters, we should be able to ensure that Ran Bing and the others do not cause any trouble."

Hearing this, Xichen glanced at the other wasteland hunters.

After taking a look at Ran Bing and the others who were guarding behind him, he thought for a moment and said, "Since Captain Mark said so, then..."

Before he could finish, a cold voice was heard, and then everyone saw Charles striding towards this side with a group of people.

He looked like he was coming with bad intentions.

"Captain Xichen, as the captain of the city defense army stationed at the medical center, is this how you protect the safety of the medical center?"

“Also, Captain Mark, as the captain of the wasteland hunter team, your authority does not seem to include the authority of the city defense force.

So what are you trying to do by doing this now? Are you dissatisfied with the rules set by the city lord?"

As soon as Charles appeared, he accused Mark of wanting to challenge the rules set by the city lord Morgan. This was a big hat that deserved death.

Looking at Charles who appeared, Mark couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Nothing good happened when Charles appeared.

Just as Mark was about to say something, a group of armed people rushed in from outside, led by Victor, the commander-in-chief of the city defense army.

After arriving, Victor looked at the people blocking the aisle of the clinic with an ugly expression.

"Mark, the city lord has already learned about Charles's incident. Please follow me to the conference hall for a meeting immediately.

As for Ran Bing and others, let me handle it. Mark, do you have any opinions?"

Seeing Victor, Mark glanced at Ran Bing behind the crowd, and then said, “Okay!”

Mark was still willing to believe in Victor.

After seeing what Victor said, Charles didn't say anything else. Victor had a very high prestige in the lighthouse.

Even Charles didn't want to offend the other party.

"Since General Victor said so, I naturally have no objection!"

Seeing that both sides had no objections, Victor looked at Xichen and said, "Lock Ran Bing and the others in the detention room alone. During this time, no one can approach without my order. Remember, no one."

At this point, Victor's voice became a little heavier.

"Yes!"

After hearing what Victor said, Xi Chen immediately understood, and then took people to take Ran Bing and others away.

This is the end of a farce.

In the lighthouse database, Ye Chen, who was looking through the information of the Ling Cage World, couldn't help but smile and shook his head when he saw this scene.

He also didn't expect that the little benefit he casually gave would lead things to develop in this direction.

However, Wuwei, with the benefits he gave, after Ran Bing and the others have digested them, their bodies will be strengthened into steel bodies.

With the lighthouse's technology, it is impossible to cause any harm to them.

Of course, as long as the Lighthouse does not release the killer railgun, they are invincible.

The current technological development of the Yanhuang Empire, especially the speed of development of physical strengthening technology, is absolutely unique in the entire universe.

If there is even a slight leak, the Linglong civilization can be easily crushed.

The Empire's technology for strengthening the physical body has a total of six levels of strengthening, generation after generation, all of which make the body stronger and harder.

Only in this way, after reaching the sixth generation of stars, will it be possible to realize the wish of bathing inside a star without dying. Currently, the research within the empire has only developed the fourth generation of physical enhancement technology, and the fifth generation technology is still being conquered.

As for the people of the empire, physical strengthening drugs are not widely available. Only a small number of newborn babies and children cannot be vaccinated with the second generation of drugs due to their incomplete physical development.

The rest of the adults received the second-generation booster.

It can be said that the Yanhuang Empire is equivalent to a civilization of little supermen for all the people, except that the daily living environment has a gravity enhancement device developed by the empire.

This results in everyone living in an environment with high gravity, so “ordinary people” are still ordinary people, and children are still children.

On high-gravity planets like Yanhuangxing and Mars, if you are hit by a car, you will still be seriously injured, and if you are killed, you will die if you don't get timely treatment.

Lighthouse, top floor, conference hall.

When Mark and Charles entered, they saw that everyone was already in the hall.

These people are Elon who is responsible for the matching rules of the Morning Light Hall, Dr. Carrie from the Ecological Research Institute, Jingnan from the Lighthouse Navigation Command Room, and Jessica, a gravity body engineer.
When Jingnan saw Mark and others arriving, she couldn't help but clench her fists, because her body also underwent changes.

Just now, when she was staying in the lighthouse navigation control room, a warm current suddenly appeared in her body, rapidly strengthening her body.

After discovering this situation, Jingnan did not say anything. Instead, he endured the discomfort and found an excuse to run to the bathroom to check on himself.

Jingnan finally breathed a sigh of relief after discovering that the warm current in her body was simply strengthening her body and had no harm.

Then, she heard what happened to the scavenger, which was exactly the same as what happened to her, so she decided to wait and see.

"Lord City Lord!"

After Mark and Charles came in, they bowed to Morgan who was sitting in the seat above.

"kindness!"

Morgan nodded, then said, "Okay, now that everyone is here, the meeting officially begins.

Mark, I heard something strange happened in your hunting team. Ran Bing and the others' bodies suddenly underwent strange changes.

Furthermore, after being tested by the medical clinic’s instruments, their all-round physical data have been rising rapidly, and now have far exceeded the range of normal humans.”

Hearing this, Mark hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Lord City Lord, although I don't know what happened to Ran Bing and the others' physical condition, I can be sure of one thing, that is, they are still human!"

"Haha, human? I think it's a humanoid beast!

After all, their current physical data are almost stronger than some ordinary beasts.

And I heard that they are getting stronger rapidly. Who knows what they will become in the end, but it will definitely not be what Captain Mark said.

It’s as simple as being human.”

As a saboteur and Mark's mortal enemy, how could Charles possibly do as the other party wished?

Seeing Charles, that bastard, defining Ran Bing and the others as extreme beasts right off the bat, Mark couldn't help but glare at him.

Charles wants Ran Bing and the others to die. Once they are defined as extreme beasts, there is only one outcome, and that is death.

Or, being thrown into the hands of Dr. Carrie as an experimental subject.

No matter what the outcome was, he didn't want to see it.

“Lord City Lord, although Ran Bing and the others’ physical conditions are improving in all aspects, they have not undergone any physical changes.

Moreover, they are still very conscious. In this situation, how could they be the Extreme Beast?

Lord City Lord, I am willing to guarantee with my life that Ran Bing and his men are definitely not Extreme Devouring Beasts, and will not harm the lighthouse."

As he spoke, Mark looked at Morgan at the top.

Morgan sat in the chair, his mind in a mess after listening to Mark's words.

As a person who came from the old society, he knew that dark history, and in that dark history, there was a group of people in the same situation as Ran Bing and others.

These people call themselves the New Humans.

They look exactly like humans, and if they are placed in a crowd, no one would be able to spot them unless they expose themselves.

Moreover, some of these new humans are simply devils, no different from the beasts, because they eat humans.

In other words, like the Extreme Beast, it wants to eat the life essence of humans.

This is also the reason why he is so repulsive to Bai Yuekui.

Although Bai Yuekui has not done these devilish things, he is also a member of the new human race.

And in his eyes, the new humans are not humans at all; they are two completely different races.

In the hall, with Morgan's silence, it suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Looking at this strange atmosphere, Dr. Carrie smiled and said, “If you can’t make up your mind, why don’t you send them to me for research.

Maybe I can find some way to bring them back to health."

Hearing this, everyone present was speechless, and the abacus beads that Dr. Carrie was counting on bounced onto their faces.

Everyone on the lighthouse knows that Dr. Carrie is a Frankenstein and there are still human corpses in her laboratory.

Those who know the truth also know that the corpse in the laboratory is Dr. Carrie's husband.

After waiting for a while and seeing that no one responded to her, Dr. Carrie didn't care. She just wanted to give it a try, and it didn't matter whether it succeeded or not.

“Ran Bing and others will be detained in the city defense army first, and gravity bodies will be sent to guard them strictly. If there is any problem, they will be killed immediately!

As for their final outcome, it will be discussed again in seven days."

After making up his mind, Morgan immediately gave orders, preparing to observe the situation of Ran Bing and others first. If it didn't work, he would throw them to Bai Yuekui on the ground to deal with.

Although he was unwilling to have more contact with Bai Yuekui over the years, he still had some contact with the other party.

Every year, a group of elderly people would go on a long journey in the lighthouse. Although they said they were going on a long journey, they were actually picked up by Bai Yuekui.

Nowadays, most of them live in ground bases, while a small number of them are completely brainwashed and believe that traveling long distances is to pave the way for the lighthouse.

Or, in other words, those who were willing to die had already died in their hearts the moment they learned about the long journey.

Or maybe they no longer see any hope in this apocalyptic world and don't want to live anymore.

Below, after hearing Morgan's decision, Mark was about to say something, but was interrupted by Morgan.

"Mark, you should know that this is the best way to deal with it. We can't be sure what happened to them.

Most importantly, Lighthouse can’t afford the gamble! ”

At this point, Morgan couldn't help but sigh. The lighthouse has come this far, and now that he is old, he just wants it to stay like this.

I don't want to have any more twists and turns and gamble on the future of the lighthouse.

He is old now and no longer has the drive he had when he was young.

For this reason, a few years ago, Bai Yuekui once again boarded the lighthouse and told him about the universe.

Even after large-scale human survival bases had begun to be built on the ground, he still did not agree.

Mark opened his mouth but said nothing in the end. All he could do now was wait for the meeting seven days later.

Seeing Mark like this, Charles couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, and a strange color flashed in his eyes.

In the next few days, he had to find a way to bring Mark down. Only when Mark fell could he use the Wasteland Hunters. (End of this chapter)
