Vol V Chapter 42
It wasn't that Colin didn't want to help Mark, but that he needed an opportunity to make Mark leave the lighthouse and go to the surface to develop human civilization.
Colin couldn't live on the lighthouse for the rest of his life. Even if the lighthouse was safe and wouldn't be attacked by Mana creatures, his strength wouldn't increase anymore. Only by constantly evolving in danger on the ground could he surpass Mana and control his own fate.
Moreover, with the evolution speed of Mana creatures, it was not impossible for them to be able to fly in the future. The lighthouse was not completely safe…
Colin knew that Mark also had thoughts about going to the surface. Otherwise, he wouldn't care so much about whether there were humans living on the surface. Judging from the signs of the undercurrent in Lighthouse, the general trend would push Mark to the ground.
Collin only needed to wait and see and save Mark.
Thinking of this, Colin came back to his senses and looked at the scenery from afar. He adjusted his physical and mental state to prepare for tonight's turmoil...
In the farm in the sky, the three children of the dust people were discussing curiously around the glider. Ma Ke and Ran Bing were walking side by side towards a place where there was no one.
Ran Bing asked absent-mindedly,"Why are you here?"
"I'm afraid you'll be punished." Ma Ke shook his head helplessly. I noticed that some soldiers saw you.”
After hearing his words, Ran Bing softly responded. She looked at him a few times and hesitated to speak. After a moment, she said,"Hey, what do you plan to do if we can really return to the surface one day?”
Ma Ke didn't understand the deeper meaning behind Ran Bing's words. He thought about answering her question seriously,""It's still too early to talk about this. We have to figure out what happened to the person we saw that day before discussing it with the Red Dragon…"
Before Ma Ke could continue, Ran Bing looked at him with a gentle gaze and interrupted,"I heard that people in the Old World used to form families. Who will you be with then?”
Being stumped by Ran Bing's question, Ma Ke was actually too embarrassed to answer this. The person in his heart was actually right in front of him…
This made Ma Ke's eyes dodge as he continued to look forward." Where did you hear all this…"
However, this made Ran Bing even more curious." Who will he be with?”
Mark tried his best to suppress his nervousness." I've never thought about these things.”
" I've thought about it," Ran Bing said as she quickly walked towards Ma Ke and gently pulled on his clothes. As a partner for many years, a feeling was deeply imprinted in Ran Bing's heart, causing her to say to Ma Ke without hesitation,""With you."
Ma Ke's eyes trembled, and his expression was a little uncomfortable. He didn't want to reject Ran Bing, but this reminded him of his sister Hongkou's death. He didn't want the tragedy to repeat itself." Don't say these words again."”
Hence, Ma Ke turned his head and slowly walked away, no longer looking at Ran Bing.
Ran Bing's expression was gloomy, but she immediately regained her emotions." Why?!”
Ma Ke didn't even turn his head and said resolutely,"This is an order."
"Is that so? Was it an order from the Desolate Hunter Commander or the future City Lord?!”
"An order is an order. What Desolate Hunters have to do is obey!”
"In your eyes, am I just a Desolate Hunter…"
"Isn't it? Had the Extreme Devouring Beasts been wiped out? Is the ground safe? Can you count the number of Desolate Hunter corpses?!”
Ma Ke's questions were filled with anger from his past.
Ran Bing felt extremely sad.
The atmosphere at the scene was silent for a long time before Ran Bing softly said," I'm going to the Golden Hall tonight…"
These words made Mark's gaze lose focus. His pupils constricted as if he had suffered a big blow.
"This is the order I have to obey. Do you want me to complete it?”At this point, Ran Bing's voice choked up. Seeing that Ma Ke did not answer, she said sadly,""Other than the Extreme Devouring Beast, you are afraid of everything…"
Ma Ke clenched his fists tightly, not allowing himself to express too much emotion." Complete your mission…"
Ran Bing smiled self-deprecatingly and did not say anything else. She turned around and slowly walked away.
At this moment, Ma Ke kept exhaling from his mouth, his breath trembling. Men…were not afraid of bloodshed and sacrifice, but they were afraid of being heartbroken…
Seeing all this, Colin secretly sighed. Being in this world made him feel even more helpless and hopeless.
Coming back to his senses, Colin noticed that the fog had unknowingly risen. At first, the fog was slightly lighter, but now it was thicker.
The lighthouse sailed to a place covered in white fog. From time to time, there would be strong wind sounds brought by turbulence, like the desperate wails of ghosts.
Amidst the howling of the wind, Colin sensed an extremely subtle strange sound mixed in with the wind. This strange sound was not something that ordinary people could sense, and only Colin's superior perception could discover this.
" I thought it wouldn't come. The Extreme Devouring Beast was lured here with blood last night. I only hope that I'm qualified to let Lighthouse use the Central Electromagnetic Cannon…"
With this thought in mind, Colin let out a deep breath and looked at the foggy distant view. He could still vaguely see the outline of the scenery, but he couldn't really see it clearly. The unknown atmosphere was gradually enveloping the lighthouse...
(The following plot will no longer be semi-original. The unofficial plot will also focus on the main character Colin and the development of the ground. I will try my best to lean towards the official plot. I hope everyone will like it.) Because of work, I still need to write after a busy day. I might not be satisfied with the update, so I apologize to everyone.）
