178: Section 178

He successively killed two Phage Beasts, and then felt an energy enter his body.

Jing Yuan immediately fled into the shielding tower's range!

Within the shielding tower's range, the Phage Beasts dared not approach.

The Phage Beasts roared angrily at Jing Yuan one after another, but they dared not take a single step closer.

Jing Yuan stood suspended in the air, quietly waiting for the mysterious energy to enhance his physical attributes.

At the same time, Jing Yuan was not idle.

The other reward was also a Technique Manual!

Jing Yuan immediately opened the technique titled “Source Essence Resonance” and quickly browsed through it.

After reading it, Jing Yuan was greatly surprised!

This was truly a timely assistance!

Source Essence Resonance is a secret technique that, by burning source essence, creates a brief resonance with the cosmic source energy, thereby gaining a several-fold increase in strength in an extremely short time!

Using Source Essence Resonance is actually simple; one only needs to burn source essence!

And source essence is the energy converted into one's own body after the body absorbs source energy.

In the pest control world, the frequently mentioned life source essence can be understood as a mysterious energy form existing within carbon-based life forms, carrying the individual's memory, consciousness, and life information.

source essence, on the other hand, is the pure energy form, excluding life information like memory and consciousness.

However, source essence is still part of the essence of life.

When Source Essence Potential was awakened, a Source Essence Projector could be used to project a person's life source essence.

The life source essence Jing Yuan projected at the time was extremely vast because the energy he absorbed and converted from source energy became part of his life source essence, making it much larger than that of ordinary people.

This also indicates that Jing Yuan stores more source essence than ordinary people.

Although the move “Source Essence Resonance” can quickly boost strength, it also has drawbacks.

The first drawback is the time limit. The burning of source essence is limited in quantity, so the time is also limited. If one forcefully continues to burn it until their fundamental life source essence is used up, they will die.

The second drawback is the body. The body's strength determines how many times the user's base strength can be amplified after performing “Source Essence Resonance.”

As soon as Jing Yuan’s body enhancement was complete, he immediately began to attempt Source Essence Resonance.

“Jing Yuan!”

Penny's voice came from behind.

Jing Yuan turned his head, lowered his altitude, and came to Penny's side!

“How is it?” Penny asked.

Jing Yuan sensed the strength in his body; he could feel that it was more than twice as strong as before.

His psychic power also increased, rising from six strands of psychic power to nine strands.

Jing Yuan briefly assessed the strength Charles had displayed. Although Charles was stronger than him, he still had the power to fight him.

Therefore, the gap between them was not large.

Jing Yuan nodded and said, “I should be able to fight Charles!”

Only upon hearing this did Penny relax and say, “I received news from the Lighthouse: Charles took Mark up to the Lighthouse!”

“What?” Jing Yuan frowned. He had overlooked Mark.

“Let’s hurry back!”

“Alright!”

Jing Yuan looked back at the Phage Beasts outside the shielding tower; they were still roaring at Jing Yuan.

Jing Yuan could feel the hostility of these Phage Beasts towards him, and it was targeted hostility, but he did not have time to deal with them now.

Penny wrapped her arms around Jing Yuan, and with a thought, she performed Space Teleportation, taking Jing Yuan with her!

Whoosh!

The two arrived again on the grassland in front of the Ecological Base.

“Ah!” Penny immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

Jing Yuan quickly held Penny, “What’s wrong?”

“I’m fine!” Penny looked up at the Lighthouse in the sky and quickly said, “Go! We must hurry back to the Lighthouse!”

“No!” Jing Yuan said, “Don’t go. I’ll go alone!”

Jing Yuan quickly considered the situation, suspecting it was a side effect of Space Teleportation. “Don’t use Space Teleportation again! Wait for me to return!”

Knowing that her physical condition was very poor, Penny could only nod.

Jing Yuan looked at Bai Yuekui standing in front of the Ecological Base. Wine Song was standing next to her, carrying a bundle of blades!

Jing Yuan was over two hundred meters away from Boss Bai. He used his psychic power to transmit his voice: “Boss Bai, please help me look after Penny. Also, I’ll borrow these blades!”

Bai Yuekui simply replied, “Alright!”

Jing Yuan’s mind moved, and the blades next to Wine Song flew towards Jing Yuan one by one.

Jing Yuan took a total of nine blades, leaving two behind.

Jing Yuan stepped onto a broad war blade, surrounded by nine war blades, and rapidly flew toward the Lighthouse!

Chapter 180: Did He Kill Mark?

Charles was wearing the lin yuan zhe armor. His golden hair floated behind him as he stood suspended in the air.

In his hand, he was gripping a person, who was none other than the Lighthouse’s former Wilderness Hunter Commander and current City Lord, Mark!

When the different groups on the Lighthouse saw this scene, they harbored different thoughts.

The Upper Citizen rebels were greatly encouraged to see Mark held captive by Charles!

This meant that their lives as the Lighthouse’s elite would continue, and even be better than before!

Because now, they also possessed Founding Merit!

But for the Dust Citizens on the Lighthouse, they realized that their good days were over!

The Dust Citizens all understood that Mark treated them as people, while Charles only treated them as livestock.

But facing this upheaval, the Dust Citizens could do nothing!

They didn't even have guns.

The struggles on the Lighthouse were always struggles between Upper Citizen and Upper Citizen.

Even the fight just now was a battle between the Upper Citizen rebels and the Wasteland Hunters Upper Citizen!

At this moment, most of the Wasteland Hunters remaining on the Lighthouse were killed or injured, with only a small portion still putting up a desperate resistance!

Charles grabbed the head of the Humanoid Bioweapon and deliberately exposed his face so that everyone could see it!

“Everyone, come and see!” Charles opened his lin yuan zhe armor faceplate, his eyes contemptuous, “This is the hero in your hearts, Captain Mark!

He! A mere mortal!

He actually attempted to tamper with the teachings of the lord of light and shadow and cooperate with those monsters on The Surface!

He threw the Lighthouse into chaos!

A person like this!

You actually hail him as a hero!

What a joke!

Today!

I will let you see that the hero in your hearts will die by my hand!”

“No!”

Ran Bing led a small team rushing forward, firing continuously at Charles.

But the bullets hit the lin yuan zhe armor without leaving a single Mark.

“Hmph!”

Charles waved his single hand, and the Wasteland Hunters Team Member behind Ran Bing was sliced in half by an energy blade!

Charles waved his hand again, and everyone around Ran Bing died, leaving only Ran Bing herself.

Ran Bing looked at Mark in Charles's hand, tears welling up in her eyes!

If Mark died, she would not continue to live alone!

So, no matter what, she had to fight to the death to save Mark!

When “Mark” saw Ran Bing, his eyes suddenly widened, and he struggled to utter a sound: “Ran Bing! Run!”

How could Ran Bing abandon Mark and flee!

Just as Ran Bing was about to charge out, Morgan approached from the rear in a Wheelchair.
