Outside the ruins of the R-49 starship.
"Set off."
"Yes boss."
Following Xu Qingshan's order, the second team of Hunters marched toward the ruins of the R-49 interstellar spacecraft.
The two gravity bodies were at the front, and the team was in the middle.
"If you don't use [Mind Control] to build a team, it's not "one-hearted" after all, but it's a good thing to use it for fun. "
Sitting in the passenger seat, Xu Qingshan clearly knew what was going on in the hearts of everyone in the team.
One by one, they were all thinking about how to paddle later.
However, this is understandable.
After all, this group of people surrendered because of force and demands. It would be impossible to expect them to contribute when they face Mark later.
At that time, it will be his time to perform alone again.
In addition to grabbing it, it should be interesting to add another item.
Squinting his eyes, Xu Qingshan's thoughts began to drift away.
"What does he want to do?"
From the driver's seat, Feixue couldn't help but feel nervous as she looked at Xu Qingshan's appearance.
After getting along for a short time, she got to know this person somewhat, and she had a hunch... that it would not be a good thing. …
Inside the ruins of the R-49 starship.
"Captain, you still can't contact the second team?"
After supervising the packing of materials, Mo Cheng asked Mark.
From the time the second team lost contact until now, he could already guess that the second team was all captured at that time.
Although I don’t know the specific process, the most likely reason is that the other party is too strong.
To be able to survive alone in the flooded Mana ecosystem to this day is definitely a monster among monsters.
You know, the lighthouse has not received survivors on the ground for thirty years. You can imagine how terrifying the Mana ecology on the surface is.
"could not be reached."
Turning to look at Mo Cheng, Mark shook his head.
He would try to contact her every five minutes, but so far he had not received a single response.
Jeff and the others were probably all captured, but they didn't know that they were "tied" by the other party and left somewhere, and they were pressed over as hostages.
The "robber" is due to arrive soon.
"Mark, they're back!!"
After Mark and Mo Cheng chatted for a while, Ran Bing's excited voice directly interrupted their thoughts.
Through the telescope, she saw Jeff's team one step ahead.
"Wait a minute, you're back? Did you see any strangers in the team?"
Looking at Ran Bing, Mark asked.
Something was wrong. According to their reasoning, Jeff and the others should be prisoners at this time.
unless……
"There is one, sitting in the passenger seat next to Feixue!!"
Ran Bing quickly scanned the convoy through the telescope, and saw Xu Qingshan in the passenger seat of the second car.
Wearing a black T-shirt, he stood out.
"Go ahead and be ready to fight at any time."
After hearing what Ran Bing reported, Mark decisively made preparations for combat.
"What?"
Ran Bing was stunned for a moment after hearing Mark's order.
But then she understood.
"I see."
The other party is a robber with terrifying strength. Of course, it is impossible to communicate well while sitting in the passenger seat.
The only explanation is that the other party held the entire second team hostage.
Thinking of this, she quickly conveyed Mark's order, and all her combat energy was ready for battle at any time. …
"A team of Mark is calling Jeff, please come back if you hear me."
Looking through the telescope at the gravity body driven by Jeff, Mark tried again to get in touch with Jeff.
Unfortunately, it backfired.
No matter how many times he sent it, the other party never responded.
"Friend, Jeff is busy. If you have anything to say, just say it."
As soon as his face showed disappointment, Mark heard a voice coming from the other side.
Lazy, low-pitched and magnetic.
Doesn't belong to anyone in the second team.
In an instant, Mark realized that the other party must be the "robber" on the surface.
"I'm Mark, I don't know what to call my friends."
After calming down, Mark asked as calmly as possible.
"Xu Qingshan."
In the passenger seat, Xu Qingshan said his name nonchalantly.
He contacted me every five minutes, and he felt a little "embarrassed" if he didn't reply.
"You should be the boss of the "Hunter", Mark. "
Mark, the "perfect" product of ASH, contains in his genes the heritage information of "all" living things on earth.
During the first stage of the outbreak of Mana ecology in the old world, it was born in a secret laboratory somewhere underground in Jiuchuan City. Its genes are also adapted to Mana ecology.
The entire birth experiment was independently completed by ASH Global Brain.
After the fall of the old world, in the Year of the First Lighthouse, the Clotho system "calculated" Mark's location and made it clear that Mark would be the bridge between humans and Mana's ecology.
Afterwards, the owner of the lighthouse, Morgan, found Mark and brought him to the lighthouse.
During the growth process, it showed extremely strong recovery ability, had physical fitness far beyond ordinary people, and had abnormal telomeres.
At this stage, no one except Morgan knows Mark's true identity.
At the lighthouse, people only know that Mark is the hunter commander, and he is their hero who can always save important survival materials on the dangerous land.
It must be said that as the protagonist of "Spirit Cage", Mark is lucky but unhappy.
In the ASH global brain experiment, Mark was lucky enough to come to this world, but this world is about to end.
Later, he was lucky enough to become the only survivor of the "perfect" experiment, but he had to witness the world alone.
Under the arrangement of ASH, he was sent to the lighthouse and grew into the hunter commander that everyone respects today, but in the process he gained and lost his "sister".
In the subsequent story, Mark is still lucky, but still unhappy.
Wandering on the edge of death without dying, but the people you care about will pass away one by one.
A miserable word in capital letters. …
"um, yes."
Although he didn't know how the other party knew about him, Mark did not hesitate and generously admitted his identity as the leader of the hunter.
There is no need to hide this.
Communication is all about integrity.
Even if the other party is a "robber".
Moreover, they still kidnapped almost an entire second team of robbers.
"I have good news and bad news here. Mark, you want to hear the one first."
Looking at Mark through his spiritual consciousness, Xu Qingshan showed an interesting smile on his lips.
"I hope Mark is okay."
From the driver's seat, Feixue noticed Xu Qingshan's "evil" smile.
But there was nothing she could do except "pray."
"good news."
On the other end of the communication, Mark said calmly.
"Your men suffered zero casualties."
"That's good news indeed."
Although I know that the other party only robs money and does not kill people, I am not worried that it is a lie.
"Um?"
Looking at Mark, Ran Bing was a little confused.
In her impression, Mark was not someone who would listen to good news first.
She thought he would choose bad news first this time. ap.
"Where's the bad news?"
"Most of your men are already my people."
"..."...
