Assassin Seven, starting in Shennong Kingdom!

Chapter 262 A Desperate Result

"call!"

Mark breathed a sigh of relief and woke up again.

This time, Mark subconsciously glanced at his hands. Being inside the gravity field, he naturally couldn't see them, but he breathed a sigh of relief when he found that he could move his body.

The feeling of his life essence being gradually extracted, turning him into flesh and soil, sent chills down his spine.

"What's wrong? Captain Mark, Mark..."

"Erica, don't say anything, let's go."

Erica, "Huh?"

"Everyone, wait a moment."

Mark stepped forward and called out to the group who were organizing their equipment. The group looked over, puzzled. "What's wrong, Mark?"

Mark looked at Xuefeng and the others and said, "It's not easy for me to explain to you right now, but I know where the medicine is. Jingnan gave me a map before he left. If everyone goes down, it will affect the speed. We'll set up a fire support point up there. The Dust People and the Hunters without gravity bodies will stay up there to provide support. I'll take a few people to the medicine area to get the medicine and then leave."

"But isn't this too risky? What if there's a Devouring Beast..."

Gavin advised.

Xuefeng also chimed in, saying, "That's right, Mark, you need to understand that you are the key. If anything happens to you, even if we get the medicine back, it won't be of any use."

Mark glanced at the time and immediately raised his hand, saying, "This is the safest way. We can't operate effectively in a confined space, and neither can the Devouring Beasts. Listen to me, let's begin!"

"Ugh."

Hearing Mark's unequivocal words and seeing that he had already begun to act, the others said nothing more and immediately began to deploy their firepower.

Mark went in alone, while the other gravity beings, still worried, went down to provide support.

4068 hid behind the crowd, sorting through the ammunition at the scene. Suddenly, he noticed a box of grenades, which he had seen Mo Cheng use before to stop the Devouring Beasts from pursuing him.

Remembering Charles's instructions, 4068 reached into the box, wanting to take out a grenade.

He was grabbed by a hand, and Mo Cheng appeared beside him, saying, "Captain Mark told me to be careful of you, saying you're one of Charles's men. You have some nerve!"

"I……"

In a panic, 4068 tried to argue, but the attention of others was also drawn to him. In his confusion, 4068 turned to run away, but was kicked to the ground by an old hunter.

"I knew Charles and his gang were up to no good. Controlling so many resources of the Lighthouse and violating the life formula to save those Dust People, they just want to make you loyal to them, humph!"

"If they had no value, when has Charles ever treated the Dust People as human beings?"

"Lord of Light and Shadow? Bah! Why didn't it come out to protect us when we were risking our lives?"

"Exactly! Once Captain Mark becomes the city lord, we'll tear down that damn Church of Light and Shadow! A bunch of good-for-nothings who only eat and do nothing, and only cause us trouble. I think they're the ones who should be banished!"

"Correct!"

The scene became somewhat chaotic for a moment.

The three laws of the lighthouse have suppressed everyone for too long. Now, with Mark's open defiance of the life formula and his speech before departure, it seems as if he is about to launch a sweeping revolution.

In an instant, both hunters and commoners saw a glimmer of hope.

At this moment, 4068 has become an outlet for their emotions, and the outcome is predictable.

boom!

Xuefeng stepped forward, stomped on 4068's chest to prevent him from getting up, leaving him groaning in pain on the ground. He demanded, "Tell me, what did Charles give you? What did he send you here to do?"

"I, I didn't... um!"

Just as he was about to deny it, Xue Feng shoved the gun barrel into his mouth and said in a deep voice, "I have no prejudice against the Dust People. We old guys didn't know the Three Laws when we were young. But that beast Charles doesn't treat you Dust People like human beings. He's the city lord's son. If he takes control of the Lighthouse in the future, you might not even have insect cakes to eat! It's not very smart of you to risk your life for him."

"Ugh...no, no!!"

Shaking his head repeatedly, 4068 was already shedding tears, looking rather pitiful, but these hunters around him had all crawled out of piles of corpses, so how could they not understand?

An old hunter stepped forward and said, "Why waste words with him? Just shoot this ungrateful bastard."

"Correct!"

"Kill! Kill him! Kill him!"

"Shoot him!"

The atmosphere at the scene gradually became intense, and as emotions changed, the fluctuations of life essence within the human body began to intensify.

4068 looked around in horror at the sounds of people threatening to execute him, utterly despairing, as a strange aura spread out.

"Damn! This guy's scared out of his wits, let's just kill him quickly."

"Ah."

boom!

"Roar!!!"

The moment the gunshot rang out, a deafening roar suddenly came from afar, and the crowd immediately covered their ears in panic.

The Devouring Beast has been attracted.

Mark had just returned with the medicine when he heard this terrifying noise and thought, "Oh no!"

Back on the ground, they found the scene ravaged by heavy casualties. Despite their efforts to subdue the Devouring Beasts, it was too late to turn the tide. Mark collapsed to his knees, exhausted, staring silently at Mo Cheng, who lay dead before him.

Feixue, exhausted, maneuvered the gravity body forward, one of her arms and the gravity body having vanished without a trace...

Erica helped Feixue up and said, "Captain, we didn't expect there to be so many Devouring Beasts, waaaaaah!!"

It was only then that Mark realized what had happened and remembered what Charles had said during the first regression: human emotions would cause the life essence to be released, thus attracting the Devouring Beasts!

Then he remembered that Qin Ming had said he only had two chances.

He used it once to lure the humanoid Devouring Beast, and now he's using it again. He... has no more chances!

"Give me one more chance! Just one! Please!"

Mark suddenly looked up and shouted at his surroundings as if possessed.

Erica was startled. "Captain Mark!?"

Mark, oblivious to everything, kept trying to find Qin Ming, shouting, "Please! Just this once! You must have a way. You helped that dustman, you won't just watch humanity disappear, you won't!"

Swish!

A white light suddenly flashed before my eyes, and then the whole world disappeared.

Mark entered a spiritual realm, but it was a blank space, devoid of anything.

Qin Ming sat at a distance, with a table and a cup of tea in front of him. The faint aroma of tea wafted through the air. He took a sip of tea and said, "Why do you think I'm helping that Dust Person? She's willing to give up the rest of her life for her lover. What does that have to do with me? If I wanted to help, they could have lived a long time."

"Can……"

Mark walked up to Qin Ming, hesitated for a moment, and said, "But you're human too, aren't you? Are you just going to stand by and watch all this happen...?"

Qin Ming poured himself a cup of tea, blew on it to cool it down, and continued, "In Morgan's eyes, evolved humans are heretics, no longer human. That's why he fears the humans on the surface like the plague. As you've seen, he's willing to conceal history to erase the existence of those humans on the surface."

"As for me……"

Qin Ming smiled and said, "To all humans, I should never be considered one of them."

"You!?" Mark was startled, then, thinking of Qin Ming's incredible methods, a sense of awe rose in his heart, and he was about to say something.

Qin Ming raised his hand to stop him from speaking, saying, "If I agree to help you one more time, there will be countless times. Human desires are endless, and I will not help you. However, you can exchange something for it."

"what?"

Qin Ming suggested, "You're too weak right now, but your genes are very special. If you find a way, you'll evolve very quickly. I need you to get something for me then."

mark,"?"

There weren't many things in this world that could move Qin Ming's heart.
