Oh? Trying to play the emotional card with me?
Even if I do, what can I do next?
Lin Yuan's lips curled up slightly.
"You don't need to worry about this. Since I'm leaving, I'll leave the lighthouse in style."
Although he had left, the other hunters would remain at the lighthouse.
If not handled properly, it will indeed cause them trouble.
"what do you mean?"
Charles frowned slightly, looking puzzled.
How could such a thing possibly be done openly and honestly?
Putting everything else aside, a beast-like Mark would never be able to appear in public.
Lin Yuan chuckled and replied:
"Next, I will take Mark and weapons on a long journey, and there will be cheers and applause along the way."
"If there are public protests, I'll stay in the lighthouse, and Mark is at your disposal, how about that?"
Chapter 45 Releasing Mark
"How can this be?"
Charles frowned deeply, and the Lightbringer also looked incredulous.
Putting everything else aside, traveling far away with the beast-transformed Mark under the watchful eyes of everyone is a difficult task in itself.
And won't the public protest?
"I always keep my word," Lin Yuan said with a calm smile.
It might not work for others, but with his three-tomoe Sharingan, it was certainly not a problem.
"Alright, since you keep your promise, I'll agree."
"I will arrange your journey first thing tomorrow morning. Remember to choose the people you want to take with you."
A thoughtful look flashed across Charles's eyes, and he agreed to the bet.
Most of the hunters who have a close relationship with Lin Yuan will not leave the lighthouse.
Even if he is powerful, he will still have to consider the feelings of these people, since they have to stay in the lighthouse.
Therefore, Lin Yuan's words have a certain degree of credibility.
Perhaps this trip could stir up public sentiment.
As previously promised.
Mark would then be back in his own hands, and he could do whatever he wanted with him, even kill him!
Charles didn't care about his own life.
Death was not frightening to him.
He just wanted to prove Morgan wrong and that he was the chosen one.
Mark is just a half-human, half-devouring monster who can be killed!
I am the one who was chosen.
All prophecies and predictions about the future are utter nonsense!
The real game has just begun.
Lin Yuan looked at Charles's unpredictable expression and felt a little strange.
What is this guy thinking?
He shook his head, sheathed his sword, and prepared to leave.
Now that the matter has been resolved, there's no need to stay here any longer.
After leaving the lighthouse, apart from Erica and the others, there was nothing else of note.
..........
Lin Yuan walked out of the Hall of Light and Shadow.
Ran Bing had been waiting outside the door for a long time. When she saw him, she quickly went forward, but suddenly stopped halfway.
Unbeknownst to them, a distance had grown between them.
Ran Bing's eyes looked somewhat unfamiliar.
Lin Yuan's ability to make people kill each other with just a glance was truly incomprehensible.
It's even frightening.
Even Ran Bing, a seasoned elite hunter, was instinctively frightened and couldn't accept it for a moment.
Lin Yuan glanced at Ran Bing, smiled calmly, and didn't seem to care too much.
The abilities she demonstrated had exceeded her expectations.
It's normal to feel fear when facing the unknown.
It's just that I can't accept it right now.
"The matter has been resolved. Tomorrow morning, we'll take Mark and the weapons and equipment and set off," Lin Yuan said.
"A long journey? And with weapons and equipment?"
Ran Bing stared wide-eyed. With Mark, who had already turned into half a Devouring Beast, on his journey, would the people of the Lighthouse really just leave him alone?
Moreover, there was no precedent for a lighthouse to embark on a long journey carrying weapons and equipment.
Lin Yuan smiled confidently, "Don't worry, I'll figure something out."
Ran Bing nodded, her expression still worried.
Although such a thing is unlikely, since things have come to this point, we can only believe him.
........
After Lin Yuan left, He Guangzhe finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The sense of oppression just now was really too strong.
The city lord mobilized a large number of armed forces, but even that couldn't stop Lin Yuan.
I'm afraid I couldn't do it on my own.
Remembering Lin Yuan's words about abducting her to the ground to be his "bandit wife," He Guangzhe was so angry that he gritted his teeth and spat inwardly.
Lowly, filthy things!
In the old days, he would have been a local thug!
"Let's go out and take a look."
Charles said with a stern face.
Not only did these city guards and priests fail to stop Lin Yuan, but so far not a single one of them has come in to protect him.
He wanted to know what had happened.
The two arrived at the door, their breath caught in their throats, and they showed expressions of disbelief.
A strong, pungent smell of blood filled the air.
The ground was littered with the corpses of priests dressed as members of the Light and Shadow Society.
Blood flowed on the ground, piling up into a pool.
Even those who were still alive were unconscious.
All the gravity-body mechs, the city defense forces, and the priests have been completely wiped out!
How did Lin Yuan manage to do that in such a short time?!
Thinking of this, Charles's breathing trembled slightly, and he asked in a deep voice:
"Is the blood that was confiscated earlier still there?"
Vatican was taken aback, then immediately realized that Charles was referring to the blood Lin Yuan had left at the medical clinic.
"Lord City Lord, it's still stored in the cold storage."
To save the little girl 9033 and the old man 0609, Lin Yuan donated a total of 400 milliliters of blood.
At that time, only half was used, and 200 milliliters of blood remained.
Charles nodded, his brow furrowing slightly.
He valued Lin Yuan even more now.
“When Dr. Carrie performed the surgery on Mark, she also collected 200 milliliters of Lin Yuan’s blood, bringing the total to 400 milliliters, which should be enough for research.”
"Although we cannot control Lin Yuan, we can uncover the secrets within him as soon as possible."
"We may not be unable to possess this kind of power."
.........
News of Captain Mark and Lin Yuan's journey spread throughout the entire Lighthouse.
One is the commander of the hunters, and the other is a hero who has emerged from the dust.
Everyone will go to see him off.
This matter has sparked much discussion.
Mark and Lin Yuan had indeed wrecked the Dawn Hall, so in their eyes, being allowed to travel far away was already a lenient measure.
It's just a bit disheartening.
Lin Yuan had only just become a citizen of the upper class and hadn't even enjoyed a few good days before he was about to have to go to the ground to feed the Devouring Beasts.
4068's expression was complicated.
Lin Yuan will be leaving the lighthouse tomorrow.
He is about to become the only Dustman in the Lighthouse to be promoted to Upper Class.
Two close friends, Girl 4277 and Brown-haired Boy 4079, are also celebrating his becoming an upper-class citizen.
But 4068 couldn't be happy.
He didn't know why, but he had a vague feeling.
Perhaps, taking 4079 and 4277 with Lin Yuan to the surface would be the right choice.
.........
Lin Yuan returned to his residence.
I lay in bed and glanced at the system panel.
[Energy Source Points: 226]
[Warning: Excessive enhancement in a short period will intensify the host's suffering and may even lead to physical collapse.]
200 energy points are enough to upgrade 'Kinetic Enhancement' to Level II.
However, he had just upgraded his Sharingan, and the enhancement brought by 800 points of life essence doubled, so he was probably close to the critical value.
If the intensity is increased further in a short period of time, the body may not be able to withstand it.
Let's wait until we get to Dragonbone Village before upgrading.
And it's safer there too.
Thinking of this, Lin Yuan closed the control panel.
As dawn broke, inside the ordnance storage room.
Lin Yuan was organizing his equipment.
He placed the modified gravity body "Longyuan" on a transport vehicle, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
