"Which direction? Brother, without a compass, how am I supposed to know which way it is! Anyway, it flew off to my left!"
The survivor who posted the video complained.
"Has the boss escaped? Are the people on the lighthouse going to deal with it?"
"Heh, wishful thinking. Have you forgotten how the King of Thieves' caravan disappeared a few days ago? I bet the people on that lighthouse were there to meet the boss!"
"..."
Looking at the messages in the chat channel, Ye Li frowned slightly and murmured, "The people on the lighthouse have moved too?"
Although the purpose and direction of the lighthouse are unknown.
However, they didn't move earlier or later, but they moved precisely when the giants were born.
Ye Li vaguely guessed that they had probably also heard the news and were heading towards Ningchuan City.
…
…
One hour ago.
Atop the lighthouse, Charles lay comfortably in his room, sipping his hot tea.
Suddenly, a knock on the door broke the peace.
"Come in!"
As Charles's voice rang out, the door to the room was pushed open.
Vatican swayed her slender waist as she walked to Charles's side.
Charles sat up straight, his gaze falling on Vatican City, and asked, "What happened?"
Fanti bowed slightly and replied respectfully, "The communications department has sent word that there are unusual fluctuations in life energy in Ningchuan City, suggesting the birth of a new Soul-Devouring Beast Emperor!"
“Ningchuan City…” Charles murmured the name of the place, his eyes becoming deep as if he were lost in thought.
After a long while, he continued, "Judging by the time, that woman should have arrived in Ningchuan City by now, right?"
"arrive!"
Vatican Road.
Charles nodded, his eyes sharpening, and murmured, "Perhaps that thing has come to life!"
Upon hearing this, Vatican was filled with doubt and cautiously asked, "That thing?"
However, Charles did not respond to Vatican's question, but simply asked, "What about Suiying and the others?"
Fanti quickly replied, "They've been capturing Earthlings all along the way, and they're still on their way to Ningchuan City!"
Upon hearing this, Charles's eyebrows shot up, a hint of anger flashing across his face. He sneered, "That guy Suiying is certainly putting in a lot of effort!"
Meanwhile, Vatican stood quietly to the side, watching Charles with an expressionless face, offering no response, and simply waiting silently for Charles's command.
After a while, Charles continued to ask, "How's the experiment going these past two days?"
Vatican reported, "Kuri's reserves of spineworms have run out..."
Upon hearing this news, Charles frowned even more deeply.
Then, Vatican continued, "Based on the current situation, the energy available to our Lighthouse can only support one more expedition led by the Hunters. If they cannot bring back new energy next time, the Lighthouse will face an energy crisis!"
Upon hearing this, Charles's expression turned even more grim, as if he were enveloped by an invisible pressure.
The lighthouse's energy should have been replenished ten days ago.
However, some unexpected events occurred later, coupled with the betrayal of Suiying, resulting in the lighthouse's energy not being replenished to this day.
Moreover, Hiro's repeated use of the elevator later caused a huge drain on the lighthouse's energy.
Charles stood up from his chair with a grim face, saying as he walked out, "Go check out the communications room!"
Vatican followed closely behind Charles.
Soon, the two arrived at the communications room.
Just as Vatican opened the door to the communications room for Charles, someone suddenly rushed out from inside.
He looked hurried and bumped right into Charles, letting out a cry of "Ouch!"
The man who rushed out staggered back a few steps, then looked up at Charles with a displeased expression.
However, the moment he saw it was Charles, his expression turned panicked.
His legs buckled, and he instantly knelt on the ground, hurriedly kowtowing and apologizing incoherently: "Lord City Lord, I'm so sorry, I... I accidentally offended you, Lord City Lord, please spare my life!"
