Chapter 472 What if the villain was still a child? (Seeking monthly votes! Seeking follow-up subscriptions!)
"Oh! You said it yourself."

Upon hearing this, Wu Xian raised his eyebrows slightly.

Immediately afterwards, a powerful mental pressure acted on Morgan, forcing him to kneel on the ground, as if an invisible hand in the air was pressing him down and gradually increasing its force, trying to crush him into a pulp.

"Morgan!!"

"Dad!!" —x2
Seeing her husband (father) in such a disheveled state, how could the adults and two children present remain indifferent? They all stepped forward to help Morgan up.

However, before they could take two steps, they sensed a transparent barrier in front of them, like bulletproof glass, separating them from Morgan and making it impossible for them to get close.

Just then, Mei Wei, who was filled with anxiety, heard two exclamations in her ears. Then she saw her son and adopted daughter lift off the ground and float up. Under a strange pull, they passed through the barrier in front of them and flew towards Wu Xian.

"don't want!!"

Meiwei screamed in despair, frantically pounding on the invisible wall. Her maternal instincts unleashed an unprecedented power within her, creating ripples in the air as she pleaded in a mournful voice:

"Don't hurt them, they're just children, they don't know anything..."

Wu Xian completely ignored the blonde woman's pleas and used his mental power to pull the two children in front of him.

He first glanced at the miniature version of Jingnan, then turned his attention to Charles, a strange look appearing on his face.

As the grandson of the former city lord and the only son of the current city lord, Charles enjoys exceptionally good treatment at the Lighthouse. He is always escorted by private bodyguards, and even ordinary high-ranking officials find it difficult to get in touch with him, let alone Charles, who works as an assistant in the research department.

Now, looking at the little brat trembling with fear but with resentment and defiance in his eyes, Wu Xian found it hard to connect him with the character Chu Sheng Dong Xi from the anime in his previous life.

It just goes to show that time is a cruel mistress. He was such a cute little devil, how did he end up going astray?

Is it because of the three laws, or is this brat's nature just like his father's—an extremely selfish egoist?
Wu Xian shook his head, and then, under the despairing gazes of May and Morgan, he pressed his hand, covered by the armor of the Abyss Walker, onto Charles's blond head.

A few seconds later, Charles nervously opened his eyes, which he had closed in fear, and looked at Wu Xian with some confusion, not understanding what this big bad guy who bullied his father was going to do, and why he was touching his head.

"Strange, there isn't any, that shouldn't be the case..."

Wu Xian frowned. Before the seven-colored lightning struck him into countless pieces, the second season of the Ling Cage anime had not yet aired, but the trailer showed a scene of Charles as a child, glowing all over, which seemed to be related to the Lord of Light and Shadow.

After the investigation by the Double-Handed Technique, although Charles did have memories of being possessed, there was no foreign object in his body. At most, his genetic structure was different from that of ordinary people, which left Wu Xian somewhat puzzled.

"Could it be that he sensed the danger beforehand and sneaked away when no one was looking?"

Thinking of this, Wu Xian frowned slightly, a hint of regret appearing in his eyes.

After all, according to the analysis of those spiritualists in the previous life, the so-called Lord of Light and Shadow is very likely a Devouring Beast of a very high level, or even a high-dimensional life behind the Mana ecosystem.

According to Wu Xian's idea, if he could obtain some information from Charles, he might be able to follow the clues, find the secrets behind the Mana ecosystem, eliminate them, and restore the planet to its original state. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Charles, pondering how to deal with this nascent Dongxi who would commit countless evil deeds in the future.

Should we just kill him to make things easier, or leave him to fend for himself on the ground, and maybe even lure out the Lord of Light and Shadow?

"Don't touch...they...if they want to kill...kill me..."

Seemingly having adapted to the terrifying pressure, Morgan struggled to support himself with his hands on the ground, looked up at Wu Xian, blood flowing from his eyes, nostrils and other orifices, and roared hoarsely.

To reiterate, setting aside the facts, just looking at the scene before us, Wu Xiancai seems more like an evil villain.

The sight of the blonde woman next to her, already weeping uncontrollably, inevitably evokes images of certain Japanese adult films with titles like "The husband commits the crime in front of his wife," the kind that are difficult to pass censorship.

Putting this strange thought out of his mind, Wu Xian's gaze fell on the mother and her two children and Morgan, and he suddenly grinned.

"Don't worry, you're definitely not going to make it out to me. As for the other three... ha! That'll have to wait and see how you perform from here on out."

……

An hour later, with the elite Hunter troops almost wiped out, the city defense forces gradually brought the situation under control and, at the fastest speed, suppressed all the members of the Law Society, which had just been transformed into the Light and Shadow Society, thus gaining complete control of the Lighthouse.

Inside the city lord's hall, Wu Xian was still wearing the Abyss Warrior armor, sitting in the seat reserved for the city lord, while the real city lord, Morgan, knelt below, his hands locked in electronic shackles, his head bowed, making it impossible to see his expression.

Heavy footsteps sounded as Red Heron piloted his gravity-body mech toward the hall, followed by city defense soldiers escorting the remaining hunter soldiers, including familiar figures such as Victor, Elon, and Snow Peak.

Besides, there was another person who seemed rather special. He was not bound by any means, and his clothing was clearly different from that of the hunters and the city guards. He had a dignified appearance, wore gold-rimmed glasses, and gave people a refined and cultured feeling, just like a scholar from the old world.

Drake, the Attorney General of the Beacon, is also a proponent of the Three Laws.

Unlike Morgan's philosophy, he only regarded the Three Laws as a temporary measure to get through the crisis of the beacon, and deep down he strongly rejected this system that abandoned human emotions.

That's why Drake hid the data recording the kinship relationships of the Lighthouse residents when the Hunters suppressed the rebellion, hoping that after the Lighthouse resolved the crisis and even returned to the surface, normal interpersonal relationships could be restored and people could reunite with their families.

Unfortunately, plans can't keep up with changes. Because of Wu Xian's appearance, the Three Laws could no longer be implemented. In addition, the Abyss Walker has been successfully activated, and the Lighthouse's strength has been greatly enhanced, enough to solve the Lighthouse's next resource crisis.

Since that's the case, there's no need for him to sacrifice his life to hide his kinship records, and he can conveniently revert the Light and Shadow Society back to the Ministry of Justice.

After all, religious beliefs are a disgrace to someone who once defended the judicial system with their life.

Thinking this, Drake looked at Morgan kneeling in the center of the hall, and at the strange man above him who had changed everything, his eyes gradually becoming deep and unfathomable.

"Suppressing all dissenting voices with absolute power—though the methods differ, the core principle is no different from Morgan's… So, what will you do next?"
