Qin Song smiled, neither agreeing nor refusing.
Charles looked up at Cloto again and said slowly, "What I did in the past may seem childish to you strong people, but in this apocalypse, everyone has their own way of surviving."
"And my path is to lead humanity to reclaim the land at all costs!"
Little blondie has grown up!
Even a mere mortal dares to shoulder the great belief of saving humanity.
It's unlikely that anyone else could have done better than him.
Unfortunately, they were too weak to even get a seat at the table.
“Come on, let’s go see something else.” Charles turned and walked out.
Institute of Ecology.
Qin Song looked at the strangely shaped mecha in front of him.
The Armor of the Abyss!
“This armor is 2.5 million years old…” Charles explained.
Carrie stepped forward slowly. "After our testing, we found that this is a biological armor, made from materials derived from some ancient beast."
"Bring the test subject up."
The first test subject was a healthy dust dweller, but judging from his age, he was already of the age to travel far away.
As the Dust People approached, a gash appeared on the back of the Abyss Being, emitting a glow similar to crimson pigment. Then, red tentacles slowly reached out towards the Dust People.
The mortal sensed danger and struggled and begged for mercy, but was still forcibly pulled into the armor by the tentacles.
The armor closed again, and then his entire body began to tremble violently.
*Thud!* Blood splattered everywhere.
The armor opened again, and the mortal lay on the ground, covered in blood, his body emaciated.
Clearly, most of the life essence has been drawn away by the Abyss.
The second test subject was a patient with scarlet fever.
Unlike the first place winner, this person could only last 30 seconds before being drained dry.
Qin Song hesitated for a moment, then walked into the laboratory. But as soon as he got close, the Abyss-like creature immediately closed its doors.
No matter what Carrie did, she just couldn't open it.
Qin Song was speechless. "Hey buddy, how can you not like me, such a big third wheel?"
He circled around the Abyss but found no jetting device.
According to the original series, this thing can fly, and it flies quite fast.
Could there be an anti-gravity device inside? But this thing has existed for hundreds of millions of years, and an anti-gravity device might not be able to withstand it for that long.
He stretched out his palm and placed it on the surface of the Abyss, feeling the icy touch, and a thought flashed through his mind.
The system immediately issued a notification: "Living creatures cannot be stored."
Holy crap! This thing is alive!
Qin Song immediately perked up.
The Abyss has existed for hundreds of millions of years, and the amount of life essence it has plundered must be countless. If we could absorb it…
Qin Song immediately performed a blessing ritual.
A massive amount of life essence suddenly emerged from the Abyss.
[Gained 10 points of wish power.]
[Gained 20 points of wish power.]
However, the next second, the Abyss's eye mask lit up with a red light, its head turned towards Qin Song, and at the same time, red light flowed around its body, forming a complex pattern. The life essence was quickly drawn into its body and slowly floated up.
Qin Song suddenly felt like he was being targeted by an ancient predator, and the Scepter of Redemption instantly appeared in his hand.
The scepter suddenly burst forth with light, enveloping the one standing in the abyss.
The figure reappeared in the light.
This time, however, the light did not shatter the Abyss, but instead rapidly retreated into the scepter upon contact with its surface.
The head of the one on the edge of the abyss slowly returned to its original position and fell back to the ground.
Carrie's eyes widened. "What's going on?!"
"My God, a strong fluctuation of life energy has been detected!" exclaimed the researcher beside him. "It's alive!"
A burning light flashed in Charles's eyes. "Qin Song, if you have a way to drive it, I can give it to you."
Upon hearing this, Carrie immediately became anxious, "Lord, we haven't figured it out yet!"
Charles waved his hand and looked at Qin Song seriously, saying, "As long as it can end the apocalypse, I can bear any consequences."
Qin Song's eyes flickered. "Let Carrie continue her research first. Also, Carrie, send me the data and video of the Abyss's shield."
Charles nodded. "Carrie, do as he says."
Carrie asked with great interest, "Counselor Qin can cause it to react strangely, could he cooperate with us in conducting experiments?"
"No time!" Qin Song turned and left.
Carrie was somewhat disappointed, but she quickly cheered up and ordered the researcher, "Quickly organize the data we just collected!"
Just as Qin Song was leaving the ecological research institute, he bumped into Fanti.
Vatican paused in his steps.
Although the high-tech mask obscured his expression, Qin Song could sense that the other person was glaring at him.
"Lord He Guang, it's time for your medicine..."
"What do you want to do? Let me go!"
Fanti staggered out of the room, looking resentful.
"What kind of hero relies on holy light?!"
"You just wait, I'll personally lock you up in the law firm!"
Qin Song found Jessica and took out the shielding device he had taken from Dragonbone Village.
"Let's crack this thing first."
"What is this?" Jessica crouched down to examine it closely.
"This device can shield the Devouring Beast's senses. I got it from the ground. And how's that berserker prosthetic body from last time coming along?"
Jessica shook her head. "That thing has a self-destruct mechanism at its core, so I dare not forcibly disassemble it."
Qin Song immediately released the experimental table he had seized, saying, "Here's a semi-finished product that might be helpful to you."
Jessica's eyes lit up, and she reached out to gently stroke the robotic arm. "It's beautiful. Give me a week, and I can completely crack it."
Qin Song nodded, left Laboratory 1, and strolled around the lighthouse, enjoying this rare moment of peace.
I've been hunting Devouring Beasts on the ground these past few days, and I feel like my emotions have become quite irritable.
Just then, he noticed a middle-aged man following him and turned to walk into a small alley.
The man followed him into the alley.
Qin Song looked at the other person calmly, "What is it?"
“Our boss told you not to dismantle the shielding tower, otherwise she would shoot down the lighthouse.”
Qin Song nodded. It seemed this guy was an informant for Dragonbone Village. He glanced at the other's identification badge: Upper Class, Wilderness Hunter.
"How did you join Lighthouse? Did you receive support from higher-ups?"
“I grew up in the lighthouse.”
"So you've been a beacon from the very beginning?"
“I am saddened to have been born here. This place is nothing but a filthy and oppressive prison. Only Dragonbone Village is a true place of freedom and hope for humanity.”
Qin Song could clearly feel the intense hatred in the other person's eyes. "Lighthouse gave birth to you and raised you. If you don't like it, you don't have to belittle it or fawn over it, do you?"
The man shrugged. "So what if I was born and raised? What a person pursues in this life is freedom and happiness. The lighthouse can't give me what I want. It's that simple."
"When I reach the age to travel far away, I can join Dragonbone Village..."
A longing shone in his eyes.
Qin Song nodded. Even if such a person joined Dragon Bone Village, he would betray them without hesitation if he were bribed by other forces in the future.
"Since you've agreed, I'll go back and report to our boss."
Qin Song suddenly asked, "Do you know who I hate the most in my life?"
"What business is it of mine who you hate?" the man said, pursing his lips.
"What I hate most are those who enjoy the benefits but still betray their own people. You may not like them, but you can't hurt them."
The man finally realized what was happening, his face filled with vigilance. "If you dare to harm me, you'll be going against Dragonbone Village!"
Qin Song shook his head, "Dragon Bone Village only made you a verbal promise, and you risked your life for them. A person like you doesn't deserve to die."
A human head flew up.
Qin Song activated the blessing spell to retrieve the remaining memories.
It turns out that this guy was recruited by Dragonbone Village while on a mission on the ground, and he also has several accomplices.
He took out his communicator. "Vanti, bring a few people over for me. The information has been sent to your personal terminal."
Vatican retorted angrily, "What gives you the right to order me around?"
"Do you want to take your medicine again?"
Chapter 104 Jumping the Tower?
Qin Song looked down at the several wounded people in the room, a scalpel floating in mid-air.
"Is there any intelligence you can share with me? Lighthouse gave birth to you and raised you; consider this my final act of gratitude."
The group glared angrily at Qin Song, "Even if you kill us, we won't say a word! They represent humanity's hope, and we will never let you ruin them!"
"What's wrong with dying for freedom?"
Qin Song nodded. "Alright, since you all yearn for freedom so much, then I will grant you freedom, but freedom comes at a price."
He turned to look at Vatican City, “Let them go on their way. Oh, and by the way, the weapons and food belong to the Lighthouse. They are not allowed to take anything except the clothes they are wearing.”
Vatican nodded and immediately arranged for the priests to take the group to the elevator platform.
Back at the General Staff Headquarters, she saw Qin Song leaning back in his chair, the scalpel still floating in mid-air. She couldn't help but ask, "How did you do that?"
Qin Song smiled and looked Vatican up and down. "Want to learn?"
Fanti looked aggrieved. "I just took my medicine today..."
Qin Song got up and went to the secret hideout, where he spent some time with his women, cultivating their relationships.
At the earliest stage of her pregnancy, Penny's lower abdomen was only slightly protruding, almost invisible to the naked eye.
As for Ran Bing, Erica, and the others, their bellies remained flat as always.
After the tender moment, Qin Song redeemed a Mark 7 for everyone.
"If the lighthouse shows any unusual activity in the future, put it on and fly out immediately."
Ran Bing asked with delight, "Then can I go down with you to kill the Devouring Beast?"
Qin Song shook his head, "It's too dangerous down there. You should take good care of yourselves in the lighthouse. That's the biggest help you can give me."
"Big guy, you haven't taken me to see the sea yet!" Erica pouted.
Qin Song rubbed her little head and said, "Go see the sea yourself if you want."
"Man, you will lose us!"
“If any man dares to look at you twice, I’ll gouge his eyes out.”
