Ling Cage: Many Children, Many Blessings - I Became the Head of Dawn

"Hmm... I mixed it myself... By the way, how did you lure away those Necrobacteria?" Nana tried to divert attention.

But the more this happened, the more pronounced her feelings became.

Fortunately, just as they rounded the street corner, a car was heading their way.

"It's the captain!" came the excited voice of the fifth squad from inside the vehicle.

Nana rushed to the front of the car, leaped up, and jumped into the back. "Let's talk about it when we get back, let's go!"

The driver immediately swerved the steering wheel and sped away.

In the back of the car, everyone surrounded Qin Song. "Song Qing, thanks to you, otherwise we would all be dead here today."

"Yes! How did you lure those Devouring Beasts away?"

"They chased me for several blocks. I accidentally ran into a secret passage, and they followed me in. After I came out, I blew up the passage..."

Although Qin Song spoke casually, everyone couldn't help but marvel.

They managed to escape from the jaws of dozens of swarming beasts; even the top three teams in the village might not be able to do it.

Each of the beasts carrying offspring has more than a dozen offspring on its back, and dozens of them would amount to hundreds of offspring. The acid from the offspring alone could drown a person.

"Brother Song Qing, let me treat you." Yunyun held a pebble-shaped instrument in her palm and placed it in front of Qin Song's forehead.

A faint source energy enveloped Qin Song. A few minutes later, she slowly withdrew her potential energy, a look of confusion appearing on her face. She had not noticed any injuries on Qin Song.

Perhaps my potential hasn't been fully developed yet; "it's just some superficial injuries."

Nana breathed a sigh of relief, then turned her attention to the other two injured people.

The wounds on their faces had been given basic bandaging.

"How are you? Are you all right?"

The two touched the gauze on their faces and gave a wry smile. "We won't die, but we'll have to keep Xu Tong company."

They used to laugh at Xu Tong for not being able to find a partner at thirty, but now their luck has turned around.

Suddenly, someone said, "Captain, we just found Zhang Qun and Tan Ding. They've been turned into flesh and dirt. Judging from their wounds, they were ambushed from behind by the Devouring Beast, which is why they didn't have time to alert us..."

A silence fell over the car, and everyone's eyes dimmed.

Nana sighed, "I was careless this time. I didn't expect the level 5 mission to be so difficult. I'll resign from my position as team leader when I get back."

One team member shook his head and said, "It has nothing to do with the captain. The Mana ecosystem has been evolving at an accelerated pace, and other teams have also suffered considerable casualties."

"I wonder how those beasts found us? If the Return to Origin technique doesn't work, the casualties will definitely be even greater in the future."

Qin Song suddenly said, "The Beasts didn't aim when they attacked us just now. I suspect that something is controlling them from behind the scenes, and that thing can see us."

Nana took a deep breath. "The last report from Shattered Star mentioned that once the Devouring Beast locks onto a human's biomagnetic field, even if the human returns to their original state, they will not be able to hide. It seems that we were discovered by them as soon as we entered the city."

Perhaps sensing the somewhat heavy atmosphere, Yunyun said in a clear voice, "Brother Song Qing, your Spirit Bomb was so powerful just now! It blew those ugly monsters to pieces in one go. Could you teach me how to use my potential?"

The young woman, with her fingers interlaced on her chest and her eyes sparkling, looked like a fan of Qin Song.

"Alright! Let's figure out your healing potential first, and let Song Qing rest for a while." Nana pushed her sister aside and sat down next to Qin Song.

Yunyun pouted angrily, then rolled her eyes and sat down on the other side of Qin Song.

Chapter 115 If you can't find a partner, come find me!

Qin Song pointed to the equipment he retrieved from the ruins, which looked like a broken computer. "What's this thing for?"

"There is a control chip for the phenomenological device inside."

Qin Song's heart skipped a beat. "It's the device that helps you activate your potential?"

"Huh? How do you know?"

"Oh, I heard about it in the village yesterday."

Qin Song thought to himself, if he could get that phenomenological equipment back, could he also train a group of awakened practitioners?

He had always had an idea: to have his followers learn sealing techniques, seal the spirit seeds of the Devouring Beast, and bring them to him, so he wouldn't have to run around every day.

Unfortunately, the followers were unable to awaken and therefore could not use the source energy.

"You said that after completing the mission, I can go to Huifu Lake to receive potential guidance. What kind of guidance is that?"

Nana thought for a moment, "I don't have any special abilities, so I've never been there. But it's said to be related to the Soul Storage Jar, which contains the souls of thousands of the deceased. Perhaps their consciousness can seep out."

Qin Song nodded slightly.

If a soul can move around in a soul storage jar, after so many years, it must have a unique understanding of source energy.

Perhaps having already come to regard Qin Song as one of her own, Nana revealed many secrets of Dragon Bone Village.

Information about the Awakened Ones of Dragonbone Village, including their abilities and strength.

There is also a training system for enlightened practitioners, from returning to the origin to activating potential, and then to developing potential.

After decades of development, this system has become quite complete.

Qin Song secretly thought that he had to get his hands on that thing when he returned to the village.

One either has to figure out their skills on their own or rely on system upgrades, without having complete reference materials.

A few hours later, the car stopped in front of the Longgu Village checkpoint, and the staff started the disinfection procedure to prevent manna spores from infecting the village.

A middle-aged woman walked over. "Nana, how did the mission go?"

Nana said bitterly, "Zhang Qun and Tan Ding are dead. We couldn't bring their bodies back."

The middle-aged woman sighed, patted Nana's shoulder to comfort her, and said, "Don't be sad! We will carry on their legacy and fight against the Mana ecosystem to the end. Their spirits will rest in peace."

"Sister He, I'm fine." Nana shook her head.

As the leader of the field team, she had long been accustomed to life and death.

A worried look appeared on the middle-aged woman's face. "The field team has suffered heavy losses recently. The Mana ecosystem is evolving at an accelerated pace. I wonder when the boss's plan will begin..."

"Hey! New guy, is it you who broke Po Kong's right leg?" A voice full of Cantonese slang came from behind.

Qin Song turned his head and saw that the man who spoke had a full beard, looked to be about thirty-five or thirty-six years old, and wore a layer of metal arm guards.

The man walked over with a serious expression.

Nana thought the other party was going to cause trouble, so she stood in front of Qin Song and said, "Qianli, that was just a misunderstanding."

Qianli suddenly grinned and said, "Brother, well done! Pokong is always talking nonsense. I've disliked him for a long time. Finally, someone taught him a lesson."

Nana was stunned.

Qianli glanced at her sideways, "I may be reckless, but I'm not stupid..."

Even that kid Po Kong was instantly killed, he doesn't want to lose a leg.

"Alright, the mana spores on your bodies have been removed. Go inside..."

"Have you found the cause of last night's anomaly?" Bai Yuekui asked.

Xia Tian shook his head and said, "This morning, Er Tong and I led the inspection, and there were no problems with the Soul Storage Jar and the Life Iteration System."

Bai Yuekui opened the tablet computer in his hand, which was playing the surveillance video of yesterday's meal at the Steel Restaurant.

"Have you found out who this person is?"

Qiu Shi, standing next to him, shook his head. "I have contacted all the major settlements, and none of them have reported missing superhumans. Furthermore, according to our database, there is no information about this person in the Old World either."

"Is it possible that they are mutants created by Gene scientists?"

"The possibility is very small, as mutants usually cannot control the mutations in their bodies."

Bai Yuekui fell into deep thought.

The source energy intensity of Po Kong was negligible to her, but Song Qing was able to kill him instantly, so her strength must be several levels above Po Kong's.

As for the conflict between Po Kong and Song Qing, she didn't take it to heart at all.

In her view, it was nothing more than children bickering over a girl.

Awakened beings have amazing resilience; as long as they are not dead or disabled, there is absolutely nothing to worry about.

"Boss, do you think what happened at Huifu Lake last night is related to him?" Qiu Shi looked at the frozen image, which was the moment Qin Song made his move.

"As soon as he came to the village, problems arose at Huifu Lake... Did the surveillance cameras capture him last night?"

"There aren't many surveillance cameras in our village, so they didn't capture it."

Bai Yuekui nodded, perhaps she was overthinking it.

Qiu Shi handed over another tablet computer. "This is the report that the fifth squad just sent back..."

"In the territory of the Bear-Beast, there is a female beast that can continuously produce offspring, and those offspring can also obtain life essence from the Mana ecosystem."

"This person was able to escape, so there must be other unknown potential within them. Should we arrange a test?"

Bai Yuekui was somewhat surprised.

She had tried to kill the mother beast more than once, but it would run away as soon as it sensed something was wrong. The underground caves were interconnected, and even she dared not venture out recklessly.

After a moment's thought, Bai Yuekui said, "I'll go and find out about him later. If there are no problems, I'll transfer him to the first squad."

Qiu Shi nodded.

In the apocalypse, the most precious thing is people. Regardless of age, gender, or value, Dragonbone Village will take them in.

This is what makes Dragonbone Village different from Lighthouse.

Wumen and Pokong both came from other tribes and are now indispensable generals in the village.

On the other side, after the fifth squad finished handing over their mission, each member received 900 crystal coins made of marrow crystals.

Qin Song strolled alone through the bustling market.

"If the style isn't beautiful, what's the point of unleashing potential? Two coins, two coins, a hundred styles, achieved immediately... Back to the barbershop from head to toe..." a woman shouted as she sharpened her tools.

The woman had distinctive green hair, exquisite facial makeup, and particularly striking eye makeup, which, combined with brown eyes, made her appear both charming and spirited.

Her left arm was adorned with brightly colored sleeves, adding a touch of untamed charm to her look.

Qin Song stepped forward and asked, "Tony, could you do a makeover that costs two hundred million?"

Jiang Lan chuckled, "You're the new guy? This morning, a lot of girls in the village were asking if you had a boyfriend."

She pulled over the billboard, "Want to try it out?"

The billboard displayed three photos of Mark, two of which showed him in his beast form, with messy fur, a sharp snout, and fangs.

The third picture shows his appearance after transforming into human form, which has the air of a chivalrous young martial arts hero.

Horizontal scroll: The frog turned into a prince overnight!

Qin Song sat down in the chair with a smile, "Whether you can find a partner depends on your swordsmanship."

Jiang Lan flashed a cool sword dance and confidently declared, "If you can't find a partner, come find me!"

Qin Song glanced at the system introduction.

"Then I'm serious."

Chapter 116 Potential Guidance

The scissors began to fly above Qin Song's head, and in no time, a short, shaved head appeared in the mirror.

Jiang Lan stood behind Qin Song, leaned down and whispered in his ear, "How is it? Are you satisfied?"

Qin Song nodded. Compared to Lighthouse's buzz cut, this hairstyle made him look a whole level better.

"Besides haircuts, do you offer any other services? Like foot massages or similar?"

Jiang Lan glared at him. "Do you think this is the old world? But if you can do me a favor, I can do it for you..."

"What's the deal?"

"Help me teach my boss a lesson, and preferably ruin her hairstyle."

Qin Song asked with a smile, "Do you have a grudge against her?"

"No, it's just that I've been unhappy with her hairstyle for a long time and wanted to give her a non-mainstream look."
