192: Section 192
"Commander-in-Chief, the Phage Beasts below the Lighthouse are gathering again!"
"Have those two Twin-Jawed Beasts revived?"
"The two Twin-Jawed Beasts killed by Jing Yuan have not revived, but other Twin-Jawed Beasts are approaching!"
At this moment, Mark connected to the communication frequency and asked, "How is Jing Yuan's situation?"
"No feedback yet!"
Mark immediately said, "Jing Nan, you watch Jing Yuan. Leave the Phage Beasts below to me!"
Mark, wearing a gravity body and leading a group of Wasteland Hunters, emerged from the Armament Preparation Depot, took the elevator, and arrived at the pillar platform below.
Mo Cheng, carrying a flying device, surveyed the situation below. He landed on the pillar platform and walked towards Mark!
"The two Twin-Jawed Beasts below have begun to revive. I suggest trying incendiary bombs!"
Mark nodded, "Release incendiary bombs! At the same time, prepare missiles and aim at the approaching Twin-Jawed Beasts!"
"Yes!" The Wasteland Hunters Team Members began to prepare.
Whoosh, dozens of incendiary bombs fell from the Lighthouse onto the already barren grassland, instantly igniting raging fires.
The Phage Beasts below let out a series of heart-wrenching roars.
In the distance, the approaching Twin-Jawed Beasts were also attacked by missiles.
Although missiles could not eliminate the Twin-Jawed Beasts, as long as they could hinder them for a moment, their objective would be achieved!
Seeing the attack was effective, the group of Wasteland Hunters behind Mark couldn't help but cheer!
However, the raging fires from the incendiary bombs quickly extinguished. There were many Phage Beasts, and they stomped out the flames one by one.
The Twin-Jawed Beasts in the distance recovered quickly after the missile attack and continued to walk towards the Lighthouse.
Mark's expression tightened as he said in a deep voice, "Get ready, this will be a tough battle!"
"Yes!"
Everyone responded in unison.
Suddenly, the entire Lighthouse vibrated and began to rise slowly!
"The Lighthouse moved! Jing Yuan succeeded!"
"Finally, we can get rid of these ugly monsters!"
Seeing the Lighthouse ascend, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Clang!"
Before everyone could rejoice for long, the Lighthouse stopped ascending again!
Mark immediately contacted the Navigation Control Room and asked, "What happened just now? I saw the Lighthouse ascend, but now it's stopped!"
"The highest authority was unlocked just now! But it was locked again in an instant!"
Mark then contacted Jing Nan, "Jing Nan..."
Before Mark could finish speaking, Jing Nan said, "I'm not sure what's going on. Jing Yuan hasn't woken up yet, and the brain connection is still ongoing!"
...In clotho's consciousness space, Mevy bypassed the program through the override console, allowing the Lighthouse's command to be successfully transmitted.
But this process did not last long.
The control platform suddenly issued an alarm, and in an instant, red light appeared throughout the entire Computing Center.
A virtual figure gradually materialized before their eyes!
Chapter 195: Lighthouse Ascends
As the virtual figure gradually condensed into a physical form, Jing Yuan saw the other party's appearance clearly.
"Master Lai?"
Perhaps because he had spent a lot of time with Master Lai recently, Jing Yuan's first thought was Master Lai.
Master Lai's appearance was actually the appearance of the mana primordial body; they had similar external outlines and physical characteristics.
However, compared to Master Lai, this body in front of him was more feminine, while Master Lai's body was more masculine.
"No! You are the primal body!"
Jing Yuan stared at the opponent, gripping his war blade tightly, ready to attack.
But the primal body waved a hand, and a powerful oppressive force simultaneously suppressed Jing Yuan and Mevy!
"Oh no! It's going to devour our life source essence!"
Jing Yuan looked at Mevy.
Jing Yuan's Mental Power had only entered, so he only felt suppression. But Mevy's physical form began to dissipate.
"Whoosh!"
Just then, a wall appeared out of thin air in the control room, instantly separating the primal body from the two of them!
Jing Yuan felt the pressure on him suddenly decrease, and Mevy's body returned to its original state.
Jing Yuan quickly walked over to help Mevy up, then looked around. This place had actually become an enclosed room.
"What's going on?"
"Who are you?"
Jing Yuan was stunned. Mevy looked at Jing Yuan with a blank stare, as if she didn't recognize him.
"What's wrong with you?"
Jing Yuan looked again, feeling that Mevy seemed much younger than before, even having a hint of girlishness!
"Were you also absorbed in by the life source essence?"
Mevy's words confused Jing Yuan!
"What's wrong with you?"
"She had part of her life source essence absorbed!"
At this moment, a voice appeared in the room, and then another figure began to condense.
Jing Yuan vigilantly watched ahead, but when the figure solidified, Jing Yuan breathed a sigh of relief!
"Ash!"
That's right, this figure was indeed Ash! A two-meter tall robot beauty!
Jing Yuan asked again, "Are you Ash?"
"I am not the complete Ash right now!"
"Ash, now..."
Jing Yuan rushed towards Ash, wanting to tell her about the current situation, but Ash reached out to stop him from continuing.
"I know your purpose! Time is urgent now. The primal body absorbed part of Mevy's life source essence, so it will recover more! The more it recovers, the harder it will be for me to control it..."
Mevy said incredulously, "I had my life source essence absorbed?"
Jing Yuan also suddenly realized that since the primal body and Mark shared the same origin, and the beast-transformed Mark could recover his body by absorbing life source essence, then the primal body could too!
Suddenly, the entire room vibrated.
Ash quickly said, "To transfer the Lighthouse's highest control authority, I need to open a channel between the clotho system and the Lighthouse's main control computer. But once the channel is opened, the primal body's consciousness will instantly take control of the Lighthouse and make it fall!"
"What should we do?" Jing Yuan believed that Ash must have a way!
"I need your help to block the primal body's consciousness!"
"Master Lai told me to eliminate the primal body, and said you know how to do it!"
Ash looked at Jing Yuan and said, "I will build a confrontation channel. You will help me block the primal body's consciousness, and I will take the opportunity to transfer the Lighthouse's highest key to the Lighthouse's main control computer."
"Okay!"
"What about me?" Mevy stepped forward and asked. Part of her life source essence had been absorbed, causing her memory to be damaged.
Ash looked at Mevy and said expressionlessly, "I will place you deep within the consciousness maze to attract the primal body's consciousness!"
Mevy and Jing Yuan both looked puzzled.
Jing Yuan asked in confusion, "What does that mean?"
Seeing that time was urgent, Ash explained directly, "You two will split up. The primal body's consciousness will also split up, part of it confronting you, and part searching for Mevy. This arrangement has the greatest chance of success!"
Jing Yuan understood after hearing this.
Rumble!
The surrounding space began to change. Jing Yuan saw a spatial rift appear between him, Mevy, and Ash, separating the three of them.
The space around Jing Yuan changed, and he once again arrived on the Lighthouse's Outer Ring platform.
Jing Yuan looked around.
