104: Section 104

“Why are you here?”

“The shield you asked for, I finished making it overnight!”

Jing Yuan looked at the scale disk in 4277's hand. With a thought, he controlled the scale disk to float before him.

4277 watched the item in her hand fly up into the air, utterly shocked.

“Go hide in the armored vehicle behind us!”

4277 knew she couldn't help in the current situation, so she quickly ran to the armored vehicle behind.

Jing Yuan looked at the scale disk before him; it had arrived just in time.

The Flying Cone he had before had dropped in Nirvana while he was killing the Calyx Beast.

At the time, Jing Yuan had been rescued by Penny and hadn't had time to retrieve it.

With 4277 delivering the scale disk, Jing Yuan had a weapon to use again.

“Where did we count to just now? Five?”

The Law Enforcers' guns steadied slightly.

“Stop!”

Suddenly, a loud shout came from afar. Jing Nan was seen pushing Leader Morgan forward.

Everyone present was shocked.

Not only was Morgan awake, but he also looked to be in good spirits.

Charles was utterly stunned!

How did the old man wake up?

Jing Yuan looked at Jing Nan from afar. They exchanged a look, understanding each other implicitly.

Back then, when Charles sent Loriv down to The Surface to fetch medicine for Morgan, Jing Yuan already knew their goal.

At that time, Fann, Locke, and Loriv each held a portion of the medicine.

After dealing with the Phage Beast, Jing Yuan found a box of medicine on The Surface; it must have been dropped by Locke.

He brought it back with him.

When Mark was originally preparing to go to Nirvana to retrieve the medicine, Jing Yuan had intended to hand over the medicine.

But Mark insisted on going!

He wanted Morgan to personally break the three great laws that he himself had established!

Jing Yuan supported him!

But Jing Yuan also had to prevent Charles from staging a coup.

Fortunately, he had an ally on the Lighthouse—Jing Nan!

Before going down to The Surface, Jing Yuan gave Jing Nan half a tube of the medicine, only half a tube, specifically to ensure Morgan survived!

Sitting in his wheelchair, Morgan looked coldly at Charles and demanded, “Charles, what are you doing?”

Charles couldn't even be bothered to explain. “What do you think I’m doing?”

“Cough, cough!” Morgan coughed twice. Although the half tube of medicine woke him up, it couldn't fully cure him.

Mark stepped forward, holding the medicine box, and said, “Lord City Master, we went to the ecology to retrieve the medicine for you. Please return to the Medical Clinic for treatment first!”

Morgan looked at Mark and said furiously, “Who told you to fetch the medicine!”

Mark froze on the spot!

I was trying to save you! Why are you acting like this?

Looking utterly disappointed, Morgan angrily rebuked Mark: “Since I announced you as the next City Master, you are the first successor! Since I was pronounced as having no value for rescue, you should have taken the throne immediately! Instead of risking yourself and a group of people on The Surface just for me!”

Chapter 106: You are a Monster!

The people present showed different emotions upon hearing Morgan's words.

Charles felt anger and jealousy.

So, in the old man's heart, even if he died, he would ensure Mark took the position!

Besides shock, Mark also felt a sense of disappointment.

Because from these words, he understood that Morgan did not want to change the three great laws, even facing death!

Jing Yuan stepped forward and said, “Lord City Master, we have already violated the three great laws for you. Are you now going to join us on the stake?”

Morgan was caught in a dilemma. His own death didn't matter.

But if he killed Mark and the Wasteland Hunters elite along with him, the loss would be too great!

Jing Yuan continued, “Lord City Master, there were unresolved matters before you fell unconscious. Can they be settled now?”

Currently, no one mentioned the previous incident, not even Mark.

Everyone knew this was forcing Morgan to deal with his own son.

Although there is no “personal favor” on the Lighthouse, there is “social etiquette.”

Since no one else mentioned it, Jing Yuan would.

“The situation is very clear now! Mark Captain breaking into the Hall of Dawn and violating the three great laws—all of it! Charles deliberately framed Captain Mark to seize the position of City Master!”

The two sides consisted of their respective confidantes, most of whom wouldn't care about whether there was framing or not. This was mainly said for Morgan and the unstable fence-sitters.

“Not only that! Charles also arranged people to assassinate Mark while he was executing a dangerous mission!”

Jing Yuan turned back and said, “Bring those two Dust Citizens up!”

Jeff and Chu Feng brought 4068 and 4414 forward.

4414 looked utterly insane; Jing Yuan couldn't do anything about him.

Jing Yuan walked up to 4068. “I already told you that 4277 was placed under my protection. Why did you help Charles and betray us? Speak! Who arranged for you to stab us in the back?”

“Vice-Captain Jing Yuan, you misunderstand. Your crimson toxin infection was not caused by me; you are having hallucinations!”

4068 said to Morgan and the others, “Vice-Captain Jing Yuan is infected with crimson toxin. Everything is a hallucination in his mind!”

When the crowd heard that Jing Yuan was infected with crimson toxin, there was a commotion. Fearing contagion, they involuntarily took a step back.

Nearby, 4277 stood dumbfounded. She realized something was wrong when she saw 4068 being handcuffed inside the vehicle.

When 4068 was brought out, she followed him out too.

She didn't believe 4068 would do such a thing, but she also didn't believe Jing Yuan would lie.

In that moment, she truly wished Jing Yuan was infected with crimson toxin and was having hallucinations!

Jing Yuan was enraged by this sophistry. He glanced at 4277, lifted 4068, and cursed, “You coward who dares to do but not admit! It's no wonder 4277 doesn't want anything to do with trash like you! You? You still dream of becoming an Upper Citizen? Bah!”

After speaking, Jing Yuan threw 4068 onto the ground and walked away.

Instantly, humiliation and fury filled 4068's heart. His childhood sweetheart, 4277, looked down on him? He wasn't worthy of being an Upper Citizen?

In front of 4277, 4068 felt like he was going insane.

In a fit of rage, he stood up and yelled at Jing Yuan, “You just got lucky to become an Upper Citizen! What are you showing off for! I was just a little unlucky! If I were an Upper Citizen, I wouldn't be worse than you! Yes! I put the crimson toxin on you! What can you do to me? xinghong disease is incurable! Jing Yuan, no matter how powerful you are, you're still going to die!”

Without turning his head, Jing Yuan said, “Do you think I'm trash like you? What can a mere crimson toxin do to me?”

Judging by Jing Yuan's demeanor, the crimson toxin seemed to have no effect on him.

At this moment, 4068 panicked too.

He knelt toward Charles and shouted loudly, “Lord Leader, save me! I was following your orders...”

“Shut up!” Charles roared, “I think both of you are infected with crimson toxin!”

Jing Yuan let out a cold snort and looked at City Master Morgan. “Lord City Master! Charles used the Hall of Dawn for illicit power and sex trading! He openly framed and attempted to assassinate the Wilderness Hunter Commander! And now he's leading so many people in a coup! Lord City Master! How do you say we should handle this!”

Morgan fell silent, because these were all capital offenses!

Originally, his plan was to have Charles step down and accompany him for a while until his Far-Away Journey.

Unfortunately, things had progressed to this stage!

Now, the two factions were facing off. No matter how he handled it, both sides would have objections.

Helplessly, Morgan tossed the problem to Mark and asked, “Mark, how do you plan to handle this?”

Mark stepped forward. This was the moment to demonstrate his responsibility as the next leader.

“Lord City Master, you have labored for the Lighthouse for so many years. It is time for you to rest.”

Morgan looked at Mark, his expression complicated.

“Then how do you plan to deal with Charles?” Morgan knew that even if Charles and Mark fought head-on, Charles would not be the one to survive.

He was going to pass the throne to Mark anyway, so sooner or later didn't matter.

While he still had influence, he wanted to secure a future for Charles and the Lighthouse.

Mark said in a deep voice, “If the Lord Leader, leading the Law Enforcement Office and the City Defense Force, is here to welcome the Wasteland Hunters back to the team, then everything in the past can be forgiven.”
