"I still have some strength. Dealing with that strange two-jawed beast might be a bit of a surprise, but dealing with the big pot lid..."

"Maiduo" grinned, stretched out a hand and pinched it, "Hand-hold, pinch it!"

“After I shared my vision with Chagai, I could see every rustle of grass within a two-kilometer radius. The lighthouse couldn’t catch me. Even if they had planes, they wouldn’t be able to catch me.”

"Besides, I'm not going to fight them. I'm just teasing them, leading them in the opposite direction. Once you're done, I'll circle back and meet up with you."

"By the way, someone also needs to stay and deal with this Mana flower, lest it develop into the Flower King and form a whirlpool that threatens our village."

Bai Yuekui stared at her for a long time.

This girl's confidence wasn't feigned; her eyes shone with an air of unwavering determination.

She considered Maido's strength. She had witnessed her marksmanship firsthand. Without exaggeration, in the entire Dragonbone Village, in terms of martial arts alone, Maido was second only to her. Her physical body, after undergoing source potential enhancement, could also unleash power no less than that of the Lighthouse Gravity Body.

In addition, her ability to control the situation after sharing vision with Chagai, as well as her combat instincts and adaptability far beyond her peers, certainly give her the qualifications to carry out such a high-risk containment mission.

More importantly, Maido isn't the type to be reckless and risk her life. The fact that she brought it up shows that she has enough confidence.

"Alright then." Bai Yuekui finally nodded. "But, three things."

"First, do not attack the lighthouse proactively. Just distract them to chase you. Avoid causing casualties. We and the lighthouse are not enemies."

"Second, stay away from their main firing range. There are too many firearms on the lighthouse. Your potential is not defensive, and it will be difficult to deal with large-scale crossfire."

"Third, we will notify you as soon as we capture the two-jawed beast. You must immediately leave the lighthouse and evacuate. Do not go straight back to the village. Come and meet up with us first. We will go back together after I confirm that everything is alright."

"Maido" slung her rifle over her shoulder, stood at attention, and patted her chest forcefully: "Mission accomplished!"

Bai Yuekui looked at her grinning face and shook his head slightly, but the corners of his mouth unconsciously curved upwards.

She turned her head and waved to the group of students from Shandong University.

"Walk."

Xia Dou dragged her large metal box past "Mai Duo" and said worriedly, "Don't be reckless."

"Maido" looked down at her and blinked: "I'm absolutely amazing!"

Xia Dou stared at her for a few seconds, then rolled her eyes: "Fine, fine, Mai Duo is invincible, let's go!"

Bai Yuekui and his group quickly disappeared around the corner of the ruins, chasing after the direction in which the two-jawed beast had fled.

"Maido" stood still, making sure they were far away.

Then she turned around and looked up at the enormous steel fortress floating in the air.

lighthouse.

The place she longed to go.

Now, it's right above her head, thousands of meters high, within reach.

She narrowed her eyes, and the smile on her lips gradually widened.

The spear flew from her hand, transforming into a cold streak of light that rushed back into the building, utterly destroying the Mana flower before flying back into her hand.

Sword control is not such an inconvenient thing; you can control a spear just the same way!

Although the Mana Flower is incredibly resilient and can usually only be destroyed by high-temperature burning, "Maido's" power clearly far exceeded the range that the Mana Flower could resist, and it was destroyed in an instant.

She moved her neck and wrists, and her joints made a soft cracking sound.

"All done. Lighthouse, here I come!"

The moment the sound fell, she lowered her body slightly, and then, thud!

He was lifted off the ground!

Like a cannonball launched into the air, the ground beneath her feet shattered, creating a ring of cracks. Her body transformed into a streak of red light, shooting straight toward the lighthouse thousands of meters in the sky!

Mr. Bai, your order is certainly reasonable, but I won't listen. I'm going to attack the lighthouse on my own initiative, let them see what real humans are like, and then get lost!

The spiral force field captures the air, compresses it, and ejects it from beneath the feet, propelling "Medo" at near-sonic speeds like a rocket booster.

She couldn't have controlled the force field so precisely to complete this process before; neither true qi nor magical power was suitable for doing such a thing.

However, her transformation into a god in A Chinese Ghost Story greatly enhanced her strength, allowing her to master even higher levels of divine power. Naturally, she overcame a hurdle and was able to accomplish something like this.

The wind pressure generated by the high-speed flight whistled past her ears, blowing her ponytail backward and making her clothes flutter.

The ruins beneath my feet were rapidly shrinking, and the scenery on the ground turned into a blurry patch of color.

Chagai gripped her shoulders tightly, letting out a sharp screech, as if crying out, "Slow down, slow down, I can't take it anymore!"

The aura surrounding her, which was enveloped in the state of returning to its origin, subtly changed during the flight.

A layer of pale golden light seeped from beneath her skin, enveloping her in a faint yet majestic halo.

The light wasn't dazzling, but it carried a sacred and oppressive feeling that made people afraid to look directly at it.

Her original state still perfectly concealed the fluctuations of her life essence, but the pressure emanating from the depths of her soul, belonging to a high-level being, spread outward like a tide, heading straight for the lighthouse!

Inside the lighthouse navigation control room, everything was bustling with activity.

Jing Nan stood in front of the huge holographic projection screen, his fingers flying across the control panel, calculating the movement trajectory of the two-jawed beast.

On the screen, the enormous two-jawed beast was moving through the ruins at an astonishing speed. Its movement was completely erratic, sometimes charging in a straight line and sometimes suddenly turning around, as if it were dragging an invisible pursuer in circles.

"Coordinates locked, calculating the next landing point of the movement trajectory." An operator quickly reported the data, "The target is moving at a speed of approximately 272 kilometers per hour and is moving towards the valley area in the southeast direction."

"Go directly to its destination and wait, conserving fuel as much as possible." Jing Nan's voice was calm and decisive. "Order the hunter team to prepare for departure. Once the target enters the valley and gets trapped, immediately begin the capture operation."

She paused, then added, "In addition, notify the Ecology Research Laboratory to prepare sample collection equipment. Lord Morgan specifically instructed that we obtain living tissue if possible."

The operator responded and immediately began relaying the orders.

The sudden appearance of large amounts of scarlet pigment and the bijambre's unusual behavior aroused curiosity among many in the Lighthouse, including Lord Morgan.

Morgan ordered a pursuit and an attempt to obtain its biological tissue for research. The entire Lighthouse sprang into action. Not only was Jingnan busy controlling the Lighthouse in pursuit, but the Hunter Squad had also assembled and was ready to go down to the ground to obtain the tissue.

Nearly a hundred hunters gathered at the Lighthouse No. 2 elevator platform. Mark, now the hunter commander, was leading the hunters in an urgent preparation of their equipment.

Due to the tight schedule, many pieces of equipment are under maintenance and repair, and only four gravity bodies are currently available for use, including his Dawnbreaker.

With such equipment, dealing with a relatively small two-jawed beast was risky, but he was confident he could lead the group to complete the mission.

Ran Bing, as the hunter's adjutant, stood beside Mark, her short, sparse white hair fluttering in the wind, looking dashing and heroic.

She was leaning on the railing, looking down at the lighthouse, her eyes full of life.

Suddenly, she saw a light shining directly from the ground toward the lighthouse.

In the navigation control room, Jingnan was intently watching the screen monitoring the Diplades.

Just then, she noticed another data window at the edge of the screen.

—That's real-time environmental scanning data sent by the lighthouse's peripheral detection system.

She had only glanced at it casually at first, but the next second, her pupils suddenly contracted.

An unknown object is approaching the lighthouse from the ground at an extremely high speed!

Moreover, its size and shape—

Jingnan's pupils dilated violently.

It's people!

A person is flying?!

“This…” Jing Nan was dumbfounded.

She sat up abruptly, her fingers flying across the control panel to bring up more detailed detection data.

Infrared signals confirmed it was a living organism, and its body temperature matched human characteristics.

There is a signal of life essence, but it is very weak. It is not a Devouring Beast. Its spectrum matches that of humans.

She quickly switched the optical detector to lock onto the target, and a little girl in red clothes, carrying a long spear, appeared on the screen, enveloped in a faint golden light.

It's actually a person?!

Jingnan's mind went blank for a fraction of a second, as if struck by something.

She jumped up and instinctively took a step back, causing the chair to slide backward with a screeching sound.

"Commander-in-Chief?!" The operators next to her were startled by her reaction and turned to look at her.

Jingnan did not answer.

She just stared intently at the rapidly approaching red dot on the screen, her pupils trembling.

"Sound the alarm!! An unidentified flying object is approaching the lighthouse!! Extremely fast! Repeat, extremely fast!! All ships to combat readiness!!!"

The piercing alarm blared throughout the entire lighthouse!

Red warning lights flashed wildly in every corner, and a piercing buzzing sound penetrated every deck.

Everyone working at their posts was startled and looked up by the sudden alarm.

The operators in the lobby frantically deployed various long-range firepower in an attempt to lock onto and intercept the approaching target.

But the target was too fast and too small, and it seemed to have a peculiar shielding effect, making it impossible for most methods to lock onto it.

On the main screen in the navigation control room, only a series of constantly fluctuating data and the increasingly closer signal point remained.

The call was passively connected, and Morgan's serious face appeared on another screen:

"Jingnan, what happened?"

“See for yourself…” Jingnan showed the video to Morgan, and she immediately saw Morgan’s eyes widen as well.

"What...is this?" Morgan was unsure, and Jingnan couldn't give an answer either. The two looked at each other in bewilderment.

Chapter 245 This road is blocked, get out!

Although the image shows a person, and a little girl at that, how can a person fly and emit light?

It must be some kind of unknown Devouring Beast with the ability to disguise itself!

"It...it has stopped!" an operator exclaimed.

On the screen, the person stopped ascending and circled the lighthouse at high speed.

Then, it descended onto the second lifting platform!
