Ling Cage: Many Children, Many Blessings - I Became the Head of Dawn

"Hey boss, when are we going to finish this surveillance? Every time we mark the ground, we come running to follow us. It feels a bit like we're being perverted."

Suddenly, an explosion rang out from deep within the ruins.

Bai Yuekui immediately said, "Let's go in and take a look..."

Chapter 66 Mark's Fate

Mark opened his mask and stared wide-eyed.

In front of them, inside bags resembling transparent vacuum packaging, hung identical corpses of little boys.

The little boy looked exactly the same as he had when he was a child.

[Product Name]: Universal Living Organ Container

[Category]: Universal adapter type

[Source]: Cloning

Mark immediately thought of how he could recover quickly after each injury; the Lighthouse had never found anyone else with such a self-healing ability.

Could it be that I...

He suppressed his shock and leaned closer to read the instructions, where he saw the cloning date in the bottom column.

It was even earlier than his birth time, so he was also a clone!

“Impossible…” Mark took a step back, unable to believe it.

"Unique, one of a kind..."

He recalled his words of encouragement to the hunters and the common people before he left, and suddenly found them ridiculous.

It turns out he wasn't that unique individual after all.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Amidst his maniacal laughter, he failed to notice the strange Devouring Beast that had appeared behind him.

The Devouring Beast opened its mouth and spat out an energy ball with a loud boom.

The energy module on the back of the heavy structure exploded...

"Mark! Hang in there!" Mo Cheng and the others carried the heavy machine and ran out.

"Boss, should we start now?" Xia Dou poked her head out from behind the rubble.

Just as Bai Yuekui was about to speak, a bolt of lightning suddenly streaked across the sky.

She looked up as if sensing something, and through the flash of lightning, she saw Qin Song standing high above, looking down at them.

"It's that guy again?" Shattered Star tightened his grip on the bow and arrow. "Boss, why don't you go stop him and we'll go get Mark back?"

Bai Yuekui was silent for a moment, then said, "Let's go!"

"Huh?! You're not bringing Mark?" Alexander exclaimed anxiously.

Does that mean we'll have to keep tracking them?

“I can’t take it with me.” Bai Yuekui glanced upwards.

With that guy around, it's impossible for Shattered Star and his group to succeed. If they can't defeat him on their own, they'll inevitably face his furious retaliation.

Qin Song was somewhat surprised to see that Bai Yuekui hadn't made a move.

He was even planning to stay on the sidelines and watch from the sidelines.

4068 hurriedly returned to the special forces team.

So many people died this time that everyone's face was filled with the expression of relief after surviving a disaster, and no one noticed his unusual behavior.

Soon, Mo Cheng and the others carried Mark's heavy body out.

Qin Song followed back to the convoy and found that Mark indeed had a wound on his neck.

Turning to look at 4068, I saw that 4068's eyes were darting away.

Qin Song shook his head slightly. It really reflected the saying, "You can guard against thieves day and night, but it's hard to guard against thieves within your own family."

He stepped forward and cast a Holy Light spell on Mark.

However, the Holy Healing spell only healed the wound on Mark's neck, but Mark did not wake up, and he must have been parasitized by the spinal worm.

The three-dimensional object is severely deformed. Without large cutting tools, forcibly removing it would only worsen Mark's injuries.

"Captain Qin, is Mark alright?" Mo Cheng asked worriedly.

"His most serious injury was not in his neck."

Seeing the puzzled looks from everyone, Qin Song didn't explain further, "You'll find out when we get back."

The Holy Healing spell cannot remove the spinal parasite; that thing has already fused with Mark's spinal nerves, and if it is forcibly removed, Mark will die immediately.

"The herd of beasts is five kilometers away from us!" the radar monitor reported.

"You guys go back first, I'll handle the beast horde behind you." Qin Song piloted his mecha and flew into the sky.

Qin Song returned to the caravan after clearing the beast horde. Seeing Qin Song's exhausted appearance, Fan Lu quickly grabbed Qin Song's hand and transferred his spiritual energy to him.

In less than two seconds, Qin Song immediately became energetic.

I had some reservations; it would be nice if I could just keep the Vinaya as a pendant.

Taking her into battle is like having a blue potion with you.

The convoy returned to the lighthouse at noon.

Due to the thunderstorm, the lighthouse lost its way and finally managed to fly to the agreed location.

With everyone's combined efforts, Mark's deformed mech was finally pried open.

The doctor carried Mark out of the cabin, but in a moment of inattention, Mark fell off the stretcher and landed face down on the ground.

There's something behind him!

"My God! It's a spine-worm! Back off!"

Many people pulled out weapons and pointed them at Mark.

"You're all crazy! He's Captain Mark!" Mo Cheng hurriedly stepped in front of Mark.

This was the first time Qin Song had ever seen what it looked like to be parasitized by the spinal worm.

Mark's back was torn open, and a centipede-shaped spinal worm was deeply embedded in his spine. His exposed body and dozens of slender legs were still writhing.

Just looking at it gives you the creeps.

Ran Bing and Penny rushed over after receiving the news. When they saw Mark's condition, they also showed grief on their faces.

After all, they were comrades-in-arms who had fought together for many years. They treated Mark like an older brother. They never expected that Mark would become like this after just one night apart.

Just then, Dr. Carrie walked over with several members of the Ecological Research Institute.

"I didn't expect Captain Mark to personally bring me back a spinal worm. The hunters have had quite a haul. Pack up everything useful and take it with you."

"Yes!" The research institute members quickly took out their equipment, some drawing blood and others conducting tests.

Nirvana's lab rats and medical robot Jianjian were also taken away.

A cold gun barrel was suddenly pressed against Carrie's forehead.

Mo Cheng said coldly, "I know what you're planning. Don't even think about messing with him!"

Carrie chuckled: "Don't worry, I'm not interested in your captain."

Feixue stepped forward, pressed down on her pistol, and said to Carrie, "Please find a way to remove the spinal parasite."

"Heh, I do have a way, but I'm afraid you don't have the guts." Carrie waved her hand and led Mark toward the ecological research institute.

Feixue came to Mo Cheng's side. "Have you noticed anything wrong? I've looked at Mark's neck wound, and it doesn't seem to have been caused by the Devouring Beast."

Mo Cheng's expression hardened. "No wonder I felt that the wound was a bit strange."

Feixue looked around.

Due to her personality, she was always the calmest one.

The situation was so urgent that Haji left behind a will that others might not have noticed, but she remembered it clearly.

Clearly, someone is manipulating things behind the scenes.

"Who could have done this?"

Feixue's gaze swept across the faces of the hunters, and she instantly felt that anyone could be a suspect.

If the murderer isn't caught, this time it's Mark, but who knows who it will be next time.

Qin Song returned to his residence, but instead of going to sleep, he glanced at the system panel and saw that he had accumulated more than 135,000 wish power.

"Tongzi, exchange for ten Source Crystals."

The next second, ten blue crystals the size of glass marbles appeared in my palm, emitting a hazy blue light.

Qin Song swallowed it directly into his mouth.

A surge of powerful energy flowed into his limbs and bones, and streams of primal energy appeared all over his body.

The energy tide gradually stopped after ten minutes.

Qin Song looked at the system panel again.

All four attributes have been changed to 300.

He clenched his fist and swung it forcefully into the air in front of him. A loud bang instantly echoed inside the room, and the resulting gust of wind caused the furniture to tilt and sway.

In addition, he gained a new skill, or rather, an ability.

[Liver Qi transforms into essence: The liver's potential is activated, continuously releasing high-intensity detoxification substances to kill or neutralize toxins, diseased cells, proteins, and harmful microorganisms that have invaded the body.]

Qin Song's spirits trembled slightly. Didn't that mean he was immune to scarlet?

According to data from the Institute of Ecology, scarlet is actually a type of microorganism that can enter the human body through respiration or open wounds and multiply rapidly.

Once infected with scarlet fever, one will first experience hallucinations, then lose their mind, gradually lose bodily functions, and finally turn into a pile of dust.

Although his Holy Healing spell suppressed the scarlet pigment, it could not completely eliminate it.

Now that this weakness has been addressed, there's no need to worry about getting infected anymore.

Qin Song lay back on the bed, closed his eyes, kicked his legs, and fell asleep immediately.

I'm exhausted after a night of killing.

Charles stood in front of the ICU in the medical department, looking expressionlessly at Morgan inside the room through the glass.

The city defense captain, Seng, looked grave. "I didn't expect Mark to actually bring back the medicine. If Mark's surgery is successful..."

Charles said coldly, "The old man will definitely go against the majority and continue to give the position of city lord to Mark."

He knew his father all too well; he was as stubborn as an ox.

It's unclear what magic Mark possessed that made Morgan insist on giving up his position to him.

"So we're just going to sit idly by and do nothing?" Seng asked, somewhat unwilling.

He has done a lot of dirty work for Charles, risking everything he owns. If Charles fails to become the city lord, Victor will definitely make him suffer.

A mocking smile appeared on Charles's lips. "You think I'd just sit idly by?"

Seng was overjoyed and respectfully said, "If the leader has any orders, I will gladly die for them."

"Go back and gather your trusted men. Once you receive my orders, immediately take over the city defense forces and the control room."

Qin Song suddenly opened his eyes.

There was a strange woman sitting on the window; to be precise, she was a cyborg.

Chapter 67 Berserker Cybernetic Body

Qin Song stood up and looked at the other party with great interest. "Has the mechanical ascension of your Hela Empire become this powerful?"

This woman is only human from the neck up. No, perhaps even her head isn't human, but rather constructed using biomimetic materials.

Those big eyes looked very lively, but their proportions were a bit too exaggerated, comparable to a certain anime loli.
