Ling Cage: I am a spiritual master, devouring source matter to become a god.

Luca scoffed, "Even if we gave you the energy source, you'd still be a gravity entity. Do you really think that just because you're a gravity entity, you're superior to us?"

"What time is it? What are you arguing about who's better!"

"Hmph!" Luca strode past Jing Yuan and addressed the group, "Brothers! If the Lighthouse won't come to our aid, I'll fight my way out myself! Let's go!"

Jingyuan didn't want to save them in the first place, and seeing that Luka still had this attitude, he was even less inclined to save them.

Luca was incredibly brave at this moment, driving his Gravity Body ahead and firing a heavy rifle at the Devourer.

The snake-dogs were caught off guard by the sudden attack from humans.

Under Luca's continuous fire, the head of a snake-dog was blown off.

Another sniper also used a heavy sniper rifle to shoot through the head of a snake-dog.

However, this charge only killed two snake-dogs.

Seeing this, the other snake dogs rushed over, looking like they were going to tear the two gravity bodies apart.

Although Jingyuan was furious with Luka, he couldn't just stand by and watch someone die.

Seeing the last bit of energy remaining, Jing Yuan still manipulated the gravity body to rush forward.

A snake-dog pounced on a gravity object from the side, tearing open its mask with a paw to reveal a terrified face.

The snake-dog was preparing to directly absorb the life essence.

Just when the driver thought he was going to die...

Jingyuan charged forward, wielding a large sword.

He slashed at the snake dog's shoulder with his knife, then swung it back and plunged it into the snake dog's abdomen.

The snake and dog are dead!

The gravity pilot lying on the ground looked at Jing Yuan as if he had seen a savior descend.

However, Jing Yuan did not notice this scene and wanted to continue his attack.

But now that the energy has been completely used up, he can no longer move an inch.

Seeing the rampaging Devouring Beasts around him, Jing Yuan quickly got out of the cockpit and picked up the Gravity Body Greatsword, preparing to fight with his bare hands.

But then, the gravity body pilot he had just saved ran over and said, "Use my energy!"

After saying that, he ran downstairs, disassembled the gravity energy source, and carried it over.

Given the current situation, Jingyuan would not refuse.

He took the energy source, quickly disassembled his own gravity energy source, and replaced it with the energy source in his hand.

Jing Yuan entered the gravity body directly and checked that 70% of the energy remained.

He turned to look at the driver from before and said, "Abandon this gravity vehicle and prepare to break out!"

The situation was urgent, and there was no time for them to load the gravity object onto the vehicle.

On the other side, Luca was still shooting at the pack of snake dogs with his gun.

But he couldn't withstand the simultaneous attacks of several snake-dogs.

He looked around and saw another gravity object being tackled by a snake-dog.

A teammate with a gun was snatched away by a snake-dog.

Another teammate had his life essence absorbed by the snake dog.

Just then, a white gravity body, wielding a large sword, descended like a war god, and successively killed the snake-dogs blocking its way.

Jingyuan killed two snake-dogs in succession, finally helping them break through the encirclement!

"Go, go, go! Go!"

The armored vehicles quickly broke through the encirclement and sped towards the lighthouse.

Luca looked at the two gravity bodies behind him. One of them had given its energy to Jing Yuan and remained stationary, while the other had been pounced on by the Devouring Beast, and its pilot had had his life essence absorbed and turned into flesh and soil.

Both of these gravity vehicles were borrowed from the city defense forces.

Not only did Luca fail to obtain the vice-captain's equipment, but he also lost two gravity vehicles and several team members.

He glared angrily at Jing Yuan and yelled, "It's all your fault! You're the one who killed them!"

Chapter 46 Luca's Wrath

Jingyuan was baffled by Luca's accusations.

I just asked you to change the energy source, but you didn't!

Now that someone has died, you're blaming me?

However, Jing Yuan did not argue with him, but continued to cover the armored vehicle's retreat!

After Jingyuan repelled two or three snake-dogs in succession, the armored vehicle increased the distance between itself and them.

Luca escaped danger without doing anything.

This team successfully withdrew.

News also came from the lighthouse that the team from Mo City had reached the elevator platform. Mark, Kunjie, and Gaoge had reunited and had broken through the Devouring Beasts' encirclement, and were on their way back.

Jingnan sent a coordinate, asking the two teams to meet at the coordinate.

On the vast wilderness, two convoys converged from different directions.

On Mark's side, Gog and Kunjie's two teams joined forces. Because of their rich experience in dealing with Devouring Beasts, although there were casualties, they were few.

On the other hand, Luca suffered the most casualties of all the teams.

This was all with Jingyuan's help and support.

Without Jing Yuan, it's uncertain whether their team could have made it back.

Faced with this situation, everyone remained silent. Jing Yuan placed the gravity object onto the elevator platform.

At this moment, a blond young man walked over and said to Jing Yuan, "Thank you for saving me just now!"

Jing Yuan looked and saw that this was the gravity body driver who had given him energy earlier.

Indeed, without Jing Yuan, he would have already turned to dust.

"My name is Tran, you must be Jingyuan..."

Tran seemed very polite, but then a discordant voice rang out.

"You're thanking him? If it weren't for him, would so many of our team members have died?"

It was Luca who spoke. He was already unhappy, and hearing Tran's words made him even angrier.

Jing Yuan was also furious at this moment. He shouted, "I asked you to change the energy source earlier, but you wouldn't. If it weren't for Tran's willingness to change it for me, none of us would have made it back!"

"Is this what I'm talking about?" Luca's expression was somewhat ferocious. "I'm talking about this selection tournament! Everyone knows that you, Jingyuan, have already sided with the leader, Charles. This vice-captain position was arranged for you! We originally thought this was a fair selection, but it turned out the competition was manipulated. Out of our five teams, only your team didn't encounter any Devouring Beasts. Tell me why?"

Jingyuan couldn't answer Luca's question either.

From the moment he started working on the punctuation, Jingyuan felt that everything was going too smoothly.

They encountered a few spine-spine worms, but not any Devouring Beasts.

"If you people wanted to assign you a vice-captain, you could have just done it directly. Why did you have to make us put on this show? And if you wanted to put on a show, why take our lives? Are you using our lives to demonstrate your fairness and impartiality?"

Jingyuan glared angrily and walked straight towards Luka; he had been quite displeased with Luka just now.

Luca didn't cooperate and instead started to resent himself.

Jingyuan didn't argue with him then to cover the team's retreat, but now he's bringing up other things. How can Jingyuan tolerate this?

"Since you know it's acting, why did you participate? Since you know everything, what is your purpose in participating in this selection? Speak up!"

Luca was stunned; he hadn't expected Jingyuan to talk back.

Logically speaking, Jingyuan is in the wrong, so shouldn't he silently bear the blame?

But he forgot that Jingyuan was someone who dared to offend even Charles to his face, so what was Luca to him?

"Come here! Let me tell you!" Jing Yuan walked up to Luka and shouted, "You think that with the support of the city defense army and with Sengge plotting for you from above, you can take advantage of the chaos in this selection and win the position of vice captain? Then you can place your own people in the city defense army among the hunters. That's what you're planning, isn't it!"

Jingyuan knew that Luka had the support of the city defense army, but he didn't know who it was. The reason he mentioned Sengge was because this guy had the biggest ambition in the city defense army, and it was very likely him.

Jingyuan didn't care whether it was true or false. If you can spout nonsense, why can't I?

"You fart!"

Jingyuan punched Luka in the stomach.

Luca was in so much pain that he couldn't straighten up and had to kneel on the ground.

He had wanted to throw that punch for a long time.

"You're incompetent, you killed your teammates, and now I'm here to support you, but instead of cooperating, you acted recklessly and almost killed everyone! And you still have the nerve to blame me?" Jing Yuan pointed at Luca and said, "Fine! Even if Charles arranged all of this, if you're so capable, go up there and yell at Charles! Don't try to talk nonsense here..."

People nearby heard the commotion and gathered around.

Mark walked ahead, pulled Jingyuan back, and gestured for him to stop talking.

Mark said to Luca, "Jingyuan's team did not encounter the Devouring Beasts, but that was just a matter of luck. You saw it just now, Jingyuan single-handedly saved you from breaking through. With his strength, he is not afraid of the Devouring Beasts at all, and he does not need any underhanded tactics."
