Jing Yuan's first reaction was not to fight back; he chose to run away.
However, the Devouring Beast had its sights set on him!
Jingyuan flew ahead, and the Devouring Beast chased after him!
As for the people below, the Devouring Beast completely ignored them.
The Devouring Beast left the magnetic field range of Qianli, and Qianli did not continue to release the magnetic field.
Looking at the scene in the sky, no one knew what to do.
Jing Yuan flew around in the sky and looked back at the Devouring Beast.
It's estimated that this Devouring Beast has just grown wings, so its agility in the air is average.
Jing Yuan immediately turned around and flew back, instantly arriving at the back of the Devouring Beast's head.
The Devouring Beast turned its head, still wanting to launch a mental attack on Jing Yuan, but Jing Yuan slashed down with his sword from top to bottom!
click!
A sound of bones breaking was heard, and the massive Devouring Beast's body began to fall.
The Devouring Beast was still desperately flapping its wings, but the newly grown wings weren't very obedient.
Before long, the Devouring Beast crashed to the ground.
Jing Yuan pressed his advantage, using his mental power to locate the Spirit Seed and stabbed it with his sword!
Click!
The Spirit Seed shattered!
Instantly, a large amount of life essence flowed towards Jing Yuan.
Jing Yuan absorbed these life essences and felt a tremendous boost!
"It seems that the more powerful the Devouring Beast, the greater the enhancement effect!"
After absorbing the life essence, Jing Yuan quietly awaited the arrival of the system notification.
No system notification?
"That means there was no upgrade!"
"We've killed so many large Devouring Beasts this time, yet none of them have leveled up!"
Jingyuan was talking to himself when suddenly he felt a chill again.
He looked around, wondering who was secretly watching him.
Who?
Jingyuan observed for a long time but found no one around!
But that chill was real!
Jingyuan quickly returned to the car.
Qianli gave him a thumbs up, and Suixing also looked at him with a smile.
Qianli said, "If this guy were on the ground, he might have survived a little longer. But flying in the sky, he's nowhere near as agile as you. He's practically asking for death!"
Jing Yuan laughed and said, "But it's also thanks to you that I was able to disrupt its magnetic field. Otherwise, with its protective shield, it wouldn't have been so easy for me to kill it!"
Jingyuan glanced at the Steelflame Fortress vehicles behind him; Quaid and his men were all unharmed.
"Let's hurry up and leave! I have a feeling this place is a bit strange!"
"Why is it weird?"
"I can't explain it!"
Looking around, Shattered Star suddenly said, "This place seems to be near the area where you killed the Two-jawed Beast last time!"
Jing Yuan recalled that after killing the Twin-jawed Beast, he also felt a chill, as if someone was watching him.
Could it be another Devouring Beast?
"Let's get going!"
"it is good!"
The two vehicles continued on their way, and for the rest of the journey, they did not encounter any more Devouring Beasts, arriving safely at the transfer charging station!
Upon arriving at the charging station, the vehicle is charged, and the people can rest.
Sui Xing contacted Bai Yue Kui via the communication device to report the situation.
In remote ecological areas, signal coverage isn't available everywhere. The charging station here has a transmission tower, which is essential for stable phone calls.
Seeing that Sui Xing had ended the call, the taciturn man asked, "Is everything alright in the village?"
"It's nothing, it's just that the signal tower at the amusement park in Zone C3 is malfunctioning. The boss needs to take some people to check it out!"
"Shouldn't we wait until we get back to conduct the investigation?"
“By the time we get back, they’ll probably be done.” Suixing glanced at Guayan and laughed, “What, are you worried the village can’t do without you?”
"I'm worried that the village can't do without you!"
"cut!"
Sui Xing and Gua Yan often bicker, and after making a couple of jokes, they turned their attention to Jing Yuan and Qian Li.
Jingyuan asked Qianli curiously, "You said you also have the ability to create shields?"
“Yes!” Qianli stretched out his right hand, on which was a tool that looked like a boxing glove.
"You have this device too?" Jing Yuan asked doubtfully. "I saw Po Kong had one too!"
"The principles are almost the same!" Qianli said, "This arm guard has a magnetic field control device. The device that breaks through the air mainly helps it control the current. As for mine, I use bioelectricity to ionize the air to form high-temperature plasma, and then use a magnetic field to confine the high-temperature, high-energy plasma to form a shield!"
Jingyuan listened and nodded, "According to what you're saying, as long as you can control the plasma, you can form a shield, right?"
“Yes!” Qianli laughed, “Why do you need to know these things?”
"I'm wondering if I could have your ability!"
Qianli said with doubt, "But this is a superpower, and everyone awakens a different superpower, so it's very difficult to learn. However, this kind of shield can also be achieved through technological means."
“But from what you’ve said, it’s really not necessary! I have my own way of using the shield!” Jing Yuan said, summoning the scale disc in front of him.
With a thought, Jing Yuan caused the scale disc to instantly disintegrate, forming a protective shield.
Qianli's eyes lit up. "If you don't disassemble it, and just use the whole shield, wouldn't the effect be even better!"
Jingyuan nodded and said, "That's right, but we need to make a bigger shield!"
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Sui Xing watched their conversation from the sidelines, found it boring, and went to rest.
After the vehicles were fully charged, the two cars and their occupants continued their journey towards Longgu Village.
……
Lighthouse, law firm.
A young man dressed in a hunter's uniform walked up to Charles's cell.
He has been living in prison since Charles's failed coup attempt.
Although they had lost their freedom, their guards still treated them well with good food and drink.
Charles, in his cell, had also changed from his usual unruly demeanor and become unusually calm.
The hunters guarding Charles believed that Charles knew he had failed and would naturally not dare to be arrogant again.
But no one knew the real reason for Charles's calm.
"Master Huishou!"
Charles heard someone calling his name and looked up.
The other party was wearing the uniform of a hunter, but was not a member of the hunters.
Because the hunters of today no longer address Charles as "Master".
"who are you?"
"Your Excellency, my name is Walter. I used to work in the materials management department. You may not recognize me!"
Charles looked at him and said calmly, "Since you're in the supplies management department, why are you wearing a hunter's uniform here?"
Walter said with a faint smile, "Chief, I came here specifically to see you."
Charles remained silent.
"Chief, do you know what the Lighthouse looks like now?"
"Does it have anything to do with me?"
"Of course, now that the Lighthouse is controlled by Mark and Jingyuan, they want to elevate the status of the Dust People. They are distributing resources that belong to the Upper People to the Dust People. If this continues, the Lighthouse will be doomed sooner or later!"
"What does it matter to me if the lighthouse goes out of business?"
"This lighthouse is the result of the hard work of your grandfather and father, two generations. Are you just going to stand by and watch it be destroyed by these two people?"
