Ever since she learned that Lin Yuan was leaving, she had been inexplicably afraid.
She was afraid she would never see Lin Yuan again.
She herself didn't know how to deal with the emotions welling up in her heart.
If they really leave the lighthouse, should we try to keep them, or should they leave everyone and go with Lin Yuan?
Erica watched Lin Yuan gradually disappear, feeling somewhat lost.
.........
After a quick lunch, Ran Bing went to the medical center to check on the comatose Ke Li.
Lin Yuan was also helpless about this.
Without the life essence, even the blood of regeneration cannot help.
The two set off for the Hall of Light and Shadow.
On the way, Lin Yuan hesitated for a moment, then looked at Ran Bing, intending to ask for her opinion:
Have you thought about what you're going to do in a little while?
"I've already thought about it!"
Ran Bing nodded firmly. "We can go to Charles and beg him to let Mark go."
“Mark’s storming of the Hall of Dawn was all because of me. Whether it’s flogging or imprisonment, I can bear it!”
"Hehe, this method is really good, I didn't even need to ask you."
Lin Yuan twitched the corner of his mouth, somewhat speechless.
If he hadn't cheated, it would have been understandable for him to beg Charles, but since he did cheat, he now has to beg Charles.
Then all that cheating was for nothing?
Mark and his core hunters can deliver a powerful blow when facing the Devouring Beasts.
But I feel incredibly humiliated when faced with something like this.
The hunters at the Lighthouse are a formidable armed force.
Putting everything else aside, if he had put in a little more effort, the former commander, Hong Kou, wouldn't have died for violating the three laws.
"Then... what should we do?"
Ran Bing lowered her head, feeling somewhat helpless.
She felt that she wasn't being spineless, but rather that she was truly at her wit's end.
Lin Yuan's lips curled up slightly: "As the saying goes, it's better to rely on yourself than on others, and you need to be strong yourself to forge iron."
Ran Bing frowned, somewhat puzzled.
"I understand the logic you're making, but what does this mean?"
Viktor, the commander-in-chief of the city's defense forces, has now been sidelined.
Charles had both the priests of the Light and Shadow Society and the city's garrison in his control.
Furthermore, apart from the modified gravity bodies, the vast majority of gravity bodies are also in Charles's hands.
He had complete control over the lighthouse.
What other options do the two of us have besides pleading with Charles?
"You'll know in a minute."
Lin Yuan smiled mysteriously.
Even if I told Ran Bing that I had beaten up the Light and Shadow Society and the city defense army, and then left the lighthouse with Mark and the equipment, Ran Bing wouldn't believe me.
The two arrived at the entrance of the Hall of Light and Shadow.
"Light gives birth to all beings, and all beings follow in its shadow; light cleanses my soul, and shadow shelters my body..."
Inside the hall, the chanting of a group of believers could be heard.
Suddenly, as if sensing Lin Yuan's arrival, their chanting abruptly stopped.
Darion stood up with a dark look in his eyes and gave a low growl:
"Assemble immediately!"
He avenged Sharif today!
The priests took up arms, and the city's garrison troops rushed over.
At the same time, a row of gravity-based mechs blocked the entrance.
"By order of the City Lord, no unauthorized persons are permitted to enter the Hall of Light and Shadow!"
Looking ahead at the gravity-body mech, as well as the city defense troops and priests.
Ran Bing's expression changed, revealing a nervous look.
"Oh? It seems this road is blocked..."
Charles probably knew I was coming, so he had made preparations beforehand.
Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow, a slight smile playing on his lips, and said calmly, "Lieutenant Ran Bing, I'm going to teach you a lesson today."
"If a road is impassable, then we should use our fists to open it!"
Chapter 43 Unleashing a New Ability: Illusion
Ran Bing looked at the large number of people guarding the door and her expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
Given the current situation, even if the Hunter Team were to arrive, they probably wouldn't dare to act rashly.
"Ran Bing, go away for a bit."
Lin Yuan gestured with his eyes.
If they start fighting later, I won't have time to deal with her.
"But Lin Yuan, I..."
Ran Bing paused, looking into his unyielding gaze, and gritted her teeth, saying, "Okay, be very careful!"
"Lin Yuan, don't be so arrogant. We have so many people and so many gravity bodies here, and we have the protection of the Lord of Light and Shadow. Do you really think you're that good?"
The blessing officer, Bri, spoke in a shrill voice, cautiously hiding behind Darion, looking smug and self-satisfied.
Lin Yuan didn't even glance at him. "I'm here to see Charles. I want him to come see me."
"There's absolutely no manners! You can't address the City Lord by his first name! And do you think you can just see the City Lord whenever you want?!"
Brie hid behind Darien, wanting to say something, but was interrupted by the Lightbringer Vatican raising his hand.
"The city lord is not here. Please go back now and come back later."
"Oh? What a coincidence."
Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow and said, "Since Charles isn't here, I'll just go inside and wait for him."
He didn't have the patience for the three visits to Zhuge Liang's thatched cottage.
As he spoke, he strode forward.
Vatican immediately stopped Lin Yuan, his expression slightly grave. "The Hall of Light and Shadow cannot be entered at will. I will go and ask the City Lord for permission. You wait here for now."
This Lin Yuan doesn't even take gravity bodies seriously.
She was really unsure.
We must quickly inform the city lord to leave the Hall of Light and Shadow.
As Vatican passed by Darion, he whispered:
"Remember, unless Lin Yuan makes the first move, you must not act without the City Lord's order."
Darion didn't speak. Because he was wearing a mask, no expression could be seen, but his eyes grew colder and colder.
This guy seems to hate me?
Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow with interest.
"You must be Darion? What's your relationship with Big Dog Sharif?"
In the previous storyline, this guy directly crushed Gavin the Hunter's neck from behind, and then shot Ran Bing to death.
I wish I could kill you!
Darion gritted his teeth, his hand holding the electromagnetic sniper rifle trembling even more.
When Sharif was mentioned, his eyes were filled with boundless anger.
If looks could kill, Lin Yuan would probably have been blasted to dust by now.
Looking at Darion's expression, Lin Yuan immediately understood.
These two are exactly the same size. There aren't many people in the Lighthouse who are bigger than Mark.
Looks like they really are brothers, no wonder they're so angry.
With this in mind, Lin Yuan decided to add fuel to the fire and try out the Sharingan's genjutsu.
Influenced by the beliefs of my past life, I have never liked firing the first shot.
If you let the other party make the first move, you'll be in the right if a fight breaks out.
This is also a good opportunity to test the effects of the Sharingan's new abilities.
The black pupils suddenly turned blood red, and three tomoe slowly rotated on them.
"What...what is this?"
"What terrifying eyes!"
"Is this guy even human...? What does he want to do?!"
Everyone was startled, and their legs involuntarily went weak.
Just looking into those eyes sends chills down your spine.
"Are you afraid? It's alright, it's normal to fear God."
Lin Yuan's lips curled up slightly as he looked at the unsuspecting Darion and activated his hypnotic eye.
After upgrading to the three-tomoe Sharingan, although it can no longer use abnormal genjutsu like Kotoamatsukami and Tsukuyomi, it can still directly interfere with the life essence of the brain, causing hallucinations.
The trigger condition is also very simple: anyone who glances at it will be affected.
Darlene's mind went blank for a moment, and her breathing suddenly became rapid.
The entire sky suddenly turned blood red!
The big dog Sharif dragged his nearly crippled body over and grabbed his ankle!
How did Sharif end up here?!
Darlene stared in disbelief, almost crying out, and instinctively took a step back with her other leg.
“Darien, have you forgotten what happened at the Hall of Dawn?” Sharif’s tone seemed to be blaming him.
Sharif wasn't mute; he just didn't like to talk much, just like himself.
"No! Of course I haven't forgotten!"
Darlene hurriedly offered her explanation.
Sarif suffered severe burns from the high temperatures when the power armor was destroyed, and pus and blood have to be drained from his body every day!
All of this is because of Lin Yuan!
I shouldn't have left that day! I should have gone and killed Lin Yuan!
Sarif's voice was venomous and low: "I haven't forgotten... so I'll take revenge! For my sake, I'll avenge him!"
"But, Lord City Lord...!"
At this moment, Lin Yuan burst into disdainful laughter.
"Useless trash! I'm standing right in front of you, and you don't even dare to kill me! No wonder you ran away with your tail between your legs that night in the Hall of Dawn!"
