Ling Cage: I come from Hisakawa

Chapter 192 Captain Mark has betrayed us!
By the end, Morgan was exhausted, and his voice grew softer and softer.

But his words became increasingly harsh.

Successor to the city lord, or a sinner of the lighthouse?
This was like a thunderclap, exploding in everyone's ears.

The city defense soldiers present all showed strange expressions.

The city lord actually intends to make Captain Mark the next city lord?
Victor's expression was complicated.

He had known all along that Morgan intended to choose Mark as the successor to the city lord, but he hadn't expected Morgan to speak up under these circumstances.

Even though Mark led the hunters to surround them, Morgan still decided to make Mark the successor to the city lord, and even said it in front of so many people.

Will Mark make the right choice?
Morgan has already analyzed the pros and cons and is still willing to let Mark succeed as the city lord. If Mark were to be of sound mind, he should know what to choose.

"Captain Mark!"

"Yue Tian saved us!"

Erica's voice came from outside, urgent and full of worry.

Bai Yuetian silently gazed at Mark.

Morgan is right. As long as he is at the Lighthouse, Hisakawa Defense Guard will not launch a full-scale attack without complete certainty of success. In fact, for his safety, they might even provide something to the Lighthouse.

However, this situation will definitely not last.

With the support of the old world, Hisakawa has plenty of ways and means to kill everyone without anyone noticing.

For example, nano-toxic fog.

ASH can release nanobots along the lighthouse's flight path. These nanobots enter the lighthouse, infiltrate human bodies with each breath, and then unleash their power all at once at a critical moment.

Who to kill, who not to kill, and when to kill them
It all depends on ASH's decision.

However, he could not use these methods to threaten Morgan into releasing him, because these methods were effective because they were covert and would lose their effectiveness if exposed prematurely.

The lighthouse was no match for ASH.

But as long as the lighthouse has the ability to kill him in time, it will be invincible.

Bai Yuetian looked at Mark.

Mark, what are you planning to do?
Mark clenched his fists and remained silent, head bowed.

He remained in that position from the moment Morgan finished speaking, without moving or saying a word.

Everyone could see that Mark was torn between his inner thoughts and his own.

"Lord City Lord."

Mark gritted his teeth: "I'm sorry!"

He grabbed Bai Yuetian's arm and pulled her outside.

Victor looked surprised.

Morgan watched Mark's retreating figure, his thin body trembling as if he had aged decades in an instant.

"Stop them!" Morgan shouted hoarsely.

The city's garrison soldiers looked at each other in bewilderment.

How to stop?
That's Captain Mark!
"Don't aim for vital areas, open fire!" Victor cried out in anguish, "Mark has betrayed us!"

Upon hearing their direct superior Victor's words, the city guards gritted their teeth, hardened their resolve, and pulled the triggers on Mark and Bai Yuetian.

Rat-a-tat-tat! Rat-a-tat-tat!
Chu Chu Chu!
The orange-yellow bullet casings fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

Bullets shot out, tracing arcs of death, like whips of steel and gunpowder lashing the sinners of the lighthouse.

However, as soon as the gunshot rang out, Mark and Bai Yuetian had already rushed out the door.

They followed the hunters and hid behind cover.

"Yue Tian, ​​are you alright?" Erica anxiously checked Bai Yue Tian's body, and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that Bai Yue Tian was not missing any limbs.

Bai Yuetian comforted him, "I'm fine, Mark arrived just in time."

His own safety is not a problem. Even if Mark chooses to become the successor to the city lord, resulting in his detention at the lighthouse, Ash will be able to rescue him sooner or later.

"What do we do now?" Mo Cheng asked.

He was flustered.

If a real fight breaks out, wouldn't that be considered a rebellion?

Other hunters also had some concerns.

But by remaining here, they have already shown their support for Mark through their actions.

"First, send Bai Yuetian away from the lighthouse."

Mark said in a deep voice, "You don't need to worry. When we returned from the last ground operation, the city lord told me that the Lighthouse was short of resources and that the hunters needed to organize another ground operation in the near future. The Lighthouse needs the hunters now, and the city lord won't do anything to you."

His words calmed the hunters down a bit.

"And what about you?" Mo Cheng asked.
Mark glanced at Bai Yuetian beside him and whispered, "I believe I did the right thing, and the city lord shouldn't punish me severely."

The bullets tore through the door panel and created a dense network of bullet holes in the wall on the other side of the corridor.

"No severe punishment? I think the city lord would rather kill you!" Ran Bing gritted her teeth.

At this moment, Kun Jie made a startling statement: "Since we've already gone this far, let's go all the way. We outnumber them, let's just kill the city lord and Victor, and then tell everyone that Victor rebelled and the Wilderness Hunters rectified the situation in time!"

Kun Jie's eyes turned cold.

He was one of the veterans Elon secretly contacted, and also a former protégé of Red Hair.

Everyone was startled upon hearing Kunjie's words.

But on second thought, this might not be a bad idea. It would be better for them to take down the city lord than for the city lord to take down Mark and then punish the hunters.

The hunters' eyes darted around.

"Stop talking," Mark said in a deep voice.

"The City Lord is the anchor of the Lighthouse, and cannot be allowed to fail. All the mistakes are my fault, and I will personally apologize to the City Lord afterwards!"

"No one is allowed to fire without my order!"

After saying that, Mark looked at Bai Yuetian.

Bai Yuetian said in a low voice, "Thank you for saving me, but I have another favor to ask."

“4068?” Mark asked.

Bai Yuetian nodded: "4068, 4079, and 4277 are my good friends among the Dust People. I heard they were all sent to Dr. Carrie's laboratory. Please help me rescue them."

He sought out Morgan for the sake of 4068 and his group, but little did he know that Morgan had already seen through his identity, and he almost ended up in jail.

“Okay, I understand.” Mark nodded without hesitation.

He turned his head and said, "Erica, go to the equipment department, put on the gravity suit, and send Bai Yuetian away from the lighthouse as soon as possible. The commotion here has already become too big, and everyone will be attracted to it. No one will pay attention to you for a while."

"Leave the lighthouse?" Erica was stunned.

Her small brain had limited capacity, only able to hold the thought of rescuing Bai Yuetian, without having considered what to do after rescuing him.

Bai Yuetian took a deep breath: "As long as I leave the Lighthouse, everyone will be safe, especially you, Mark. Tell Morgan that if anything happens to you, I will make the Lighthouse pay for its crimes in blood."

“I’m serious,” he said solemnly.

Mark hesitated, but under Bai Yuetian's gaze, he finally nodded slightly.

"Let's go." Bai Yuetian took Erica's hand and crouched down to move out.

The two left the medical department.

Gunfire from the medical unit had reached outside, and ordinary citizens fled, while the city's garrison continued to arrive to provide reinforcements.

"stop!"

A detachment of city defense troops blocked the only road leading to the equipment department and intercepted Bai Yuetian and Erica.
