From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

Yes, you are capable!

They've got the skills!

More importantly, the position of the supply manager can help this outsider to better observe the lighthouse's "Mendelian pea" system from the perspective of an "observer"!

Could it be that Charles's power has been usurped by this kid?

"Dr. Flynn, you really agreed?" Jingnan asked.

"Or should I take two more slaps?"

Flynn rolled his eyes. In front of this guy who actually dared to hit him, an old man, he dared not utter another curse.

Furthermore.

From the moment Jingnan came in and explained the current situation of the lighthouse, he had already decided to help. Otherwise, why would he have turned on the computer just now?

To connect the human brain to the Kloto system, the technology of the ASH mechanical body, which was retrieved from the ground along with the giant brain by the first Lord Gray, is indispensable.

He didn't care about Morgan or Charles, but as a researcher who had dedicated himself to benefiting humanity, he didn't want the Lighthouse, humanity's last gathering place, to be destroyed.

but--

"Two conditions are needed to connect Kloto with the human brain."

Flynn held up two fingers. "First, we need to implant the spinal worm in the body; second, we need to implant the spore virus into the brain."

Nobody would be willing to do that.

"Then I'll do it."

Jingnan spoke with a firm tone.

"The process is irreversible."

A hint of emotion flickered in Flynn's eyes.

“Then it is even more appropriate for me to do it.” Jing Nan did not back down. “As the chief commander of the lighthouse’s air control room, I have the right to consider the safety of the lighthouse.”

Flynn opened his mouth, then sighed.

"Actually, there is an even more suitable candidate."

Lu Jin spoke up and named a candidate, "Mark."

"Let's not even talk about how long it will take for the newly appointed Hunter Commander to find Captain Mark. Even if he does find him, he can't retain human consciousness. What good will it do if he connects to the Kloto system?" Jing Nan frowned, becoming wary of Lu Jin.

“Mark? The baby that the first city lord found on the ground using the Kloto system?” Flynn exclaimed in surprise. “He successfully fused with the Spine Worm?”

"Found on the ground? Wasn't Mark born during the breeding mission?"

Based on Flynn's offhand remark, Jingnan was already certain of the truth of the matter, though she couldn't believe it.

"Speaking of Mark—"

Lu Jin took out a photo of a laboratory with rows of vacuum-sealed bags containing young Marks. "Was he similar to the full-body specimens of living organs from the Old World in this photo when he was young?"

“That’s right, Mark looked just like this when he was a child! I can’t be wrong!” Jing Nan’s eyes trembled as he realized that Mark’s identity was questionable.

"This photo was taken at an experimental facility in Nirvana."

Lu Jin explained the origin of the photos and then took out another photo that Jiang Liu had transmitted through space. The content was also a scene in Nirvana, which corresponded to the virtual projection that Red Girl and Lu Jin had mentioned. The projected image was still young Mark!

However, this young Mark's photo is different from other living organ samples. It has protrusions on its head and back similar to those of the Devouring Beast. More importantly, this "young Mark" has four arms!

"A Devouring Beast?!"

Jingnan was speechless.

Flynn's eyes widened: "A humanoid Devourer? What's Mark's relationship with him?"

According to the video description of Nirvana—

Lu Jin started to bluff, recounting what Jiang Liu had told him, "This young Mark, who resembles a Devouring Beast, is an individual conceived in the left brain of a giant creature hundreds of millions of years ago, and was named 'Cranial-Born'."

Because of his immune compatibility, he was subjected to inhumane experiments by researchers from the old world, who modified his genes to fully express the parts that were close to human genes, cloned him, and then used him for organ trafficking...

Mark is likely one of the cranioblastic clones who possessed self-awareness, a unique individual born in the Mana ecosystem but raised in the human environment of the Lighthouse.

Chapter 1216 One Day Before/One Day After

"Only products of the Mana ecosystem can counteract the Mana ecosystem?"

Flynn considered this possibility.

There are three reasons why Lu Jin revealed Mark's true identity.

First, with the Kloto system infiltrating the central control system and locking down the anti-gravity measures of the aviation system, the lighthouse will inevitably undergo a major change.

And it cannot be changed.

If that's the case, why not help the people of the Lighthouse learn from the apes to be down-to-earth and stand tall?

Secondly, I would like to remind Jingnan that while self-sacrifice is a noble human virtue, unnecessary sacrifice is meaningless.

How could the human brain possibly outperform the computational power of the Klotto system?

The number of neurons is on a completely different order of magnitude!

Even if she were fully prepared, the probability of an ordinary person connecting to that brain and having their memories read is much higher than the probability of her reading the information in that brain.

Third, Mark is the key.

"Whether Mark is a product of the Mana ecosystem or not, I don't know. But based on what I've learned from the upper and lower classes about Mark before he became a monster by fusing with the spinal worm, I can only give one assessment."

Lu Jin smiled calmly, “A reformist leader with a broad mind, but also a bit naive.”

Upon hearing this, Jingnan raised an eyebrow, not denying that Mark did indeed want to change the Lighthouse system and was a very charismatic person.

But why call him naive?

"It's not difficult for one person to change their own mind; they just need to convince themselves, and it won't cause any material loss. But changing the mind of a group of people—"

Seemingly noticing Jingnan's confusion, Lu Jin chuckled and said, "Most people can't sit still and listen properly, especially those who have vested interests. If you want them to listen, you can't do it without resorting to extreme measures."

Jing Nan raised an eyebrow and said, "So you're using extraordinary measures?"

“Extraordinary measures would not be so gentle.”

Lu Jin chuckled, no longer answering, but looked at Flynn, "Now, Dr. Flynn, continue your preparations."

Mark, the person chosen to connect to the Kloto system, will likely arrive soon.

Flynn: "???"

Although he didn't understand, he had no choice but to do as he was told and carry out the preparations.

Jingnan frowned and questioned Lu Jin: "You knew about the current situation of the Lighthouse all along? Or is it something you caused?"

"You really think so?"

Lu Jin countered with a question.

"The aviation system was indeed compromised by the Kloto system, but we know very little about the bio-material technology."

Jing Nan narrowed his eyes, conjuring up the idea that Lu Jin and the others had used some special ability to stimulate the Klotor system.

"Oh my God! I'm so heartbroken! We've known each other for over half a year, and she's slandering me like this?"

Lu Jin beat his chest and stamped his feet, his exaggerated expression making Jing Nan's eyelids twitch.

He continued, "Believe it or not, we didn't cause the lighthouse to fall. We just wanted to live a peaceful life in the lighthouse—"

Incidentally, this also undermines Charles's power.

That's all. "

Jingnan: “·······”

the other side.

Dragon Bone Village.

Ecological base.

Suiying had already led the team into the ecological base, suffering losses and setbacks along the way.

Although the Awakened Ones all mastered the Lesser Heavenly Cycle within half a year due to Jiang Liu's appearance, and none of them died, while the Hunters suffered more casualties, the Hunters still managed to break through all the defenses along the way by virtue of their firepower advantage, and arrived at the space where they were researching humanoid bio-weapons and Devouring Beasts.

"Stop the attack!"

As Suiying controlled the heavy 3D - Dawn to fire shells at Shattered Star, which had been hit by several shots from Sean, Kado, and others, a "slender" heavy 3D broke through a hidden door to the side and quickly flew up. With its arms spinning, it used softness to overcome hardness and deflected the shells into a nearby pool of water to minimize the damage from the explosion.

That's the Dawn!

The Dawn's mask opened, revealing Wu Chenxi's face, causing Suiying to stop her attack: "4277!"

We're alright!

Wu Dongxi, Mo Chen, and their group followed closely behind.

"You guys actually came out?"

Sui Xing squinted at the heavy armor set Wu Chenxi was wearing. "That's not only a technological product of the Lighthouse, but it also utilizes materials from the Devouring Beast?"

"It uses steel that incorporates the bone material of the Devouring Beast: Devouring Steel, which can perfectly complement the operation of the human body's life essence and can be remotely controlled."

Wu Chenxi explained for a moment, then called out to the crowd, "Everyone, stop! Captain Mark isn't here, and—"

She looked at Suiying, "Captain Suiying, why are we attacking?"

Faced with her questioning.

A complex mix of emotions—stunned, shocked, and ashamed—brewed together in Suiying, ultimately culminating in indignation. She roared, "For the sake of the lighthouse! I had to resort to this desperate measure!"

The die is cast. Since the offense has already been committed, there is no possibility of further negotiation. Suiying suddenly fired a cannonball at Wuding and Naen, who were not far away.

boom!

Flames filled the air, and heat swept through.

Even though Udin and Naen had reacted earlier, they were still shaken by the aftershocks of the explosion, their internal organs churning and their viscera turbulent. More importantly, their special abilities were related to their eyes and ears. Assaulted by the intense light and sound of the explosion, their primordial spirits trembled, and they suffered unbearable pain, eventually fainting.

"what are you doing?"

Dancing in the morning light was unbelievable.
