"Don't rush, we need to be fully prepared! If Jingyuan returns to the Lighthouse, we must have a way to deal with him!"
4068 was shocked when he heard this conversation.
He didn't recognize the voice of the person in front, but the voice behind him was clearly Charles's.
He went deeper, poked his head out, and looked inside.
Charles was still sitting in his cell, having regained his usual demeanor, and was wearing his signature leader's uniform.
Outside the iron gate stood a man dressed in a black robe.
Seeing this, 4068 knew that someone was trying to rescue Charles.
4068 began to hesitate about whether to leave immediately to report to the hunters.
If the message is successfully delivered, it could be a great achievement.
But if we don't send word, Charles will definitely cause trouble after he goes out this time.
The lighthouse is in chaos again. Is there any way to profit from this situation?
Just as 4068 was still hesitating, a gun was pointed at his head.
"Who are you?" the gunman asked 4068.
4068 quickly raised his hands and said, "I...I'm delivering food to the head of the organization!"
It turns out there was more than one person in black robes.
"What's wrong?" Charles also heard the commotion outside.
"My Lord, there is a commoner who delivers food."
"Bring him in!"
The man in black robes brought in 4068. Charles looked at him, stared at him, and smiled slightly: "It's you! You're still alive!"
"Master Huishou!"
"Oh right! It must have been your girlfriend who pleaded for you!"
4068 lowered his head; he thought so too.
Charles chuckled, "You're not so bad off; you lost a woman but survived. But even if you had lived, would you have had a place on this lighthouse?"
4068 gritted his teeth; now he was a commoner, the lowest of the low.
He stared at 4068 and asked, "Now that you've discovered what we're doing, do you want to go out and report it, or... stay and come with us?"
4068 glanced at Charles. Would he let you out?
Moreover, Charles is right. There is no place for him in the Lighthouse now. His only chance to change his fate is to follow Charles!
It's worth the gamble, no matter what!
4068 immediately knelt down, "Master, I am willing to serve you!"
“Good!” Charles stood up and looked at 4068 through the iron door of the cell.
At this moment, it seems as if 4068 is the one who is in the prison cell.
"Forget about your commoner girlfriend! After we succeed together, you can choose any commoner woman you want. Even if you want to sleep with a commoner woman, I can satisfy you!"
4068 raised his head, his eyes filled with a desire for power.
“Very good!” Charles liked seeing that look.
As long as they are filled with lust for power, they will do anything for it.
"I have something I need you to do! As a commoner, you're perfectly suited for it!"
……
Chapter 172 The One Who Stands on the Edge
Disguised as a cleaner, 4068 arrived at Dr. Carrie's Ecological Research Institute.
Only now did 4068 understand why Charles had chosen him.
Charles was not interested in 4068 himself, but rather in 4068's identity as a mortal.
The common people are truly like dust on the lighthouse.
Even if he is 4068, the 4068 who betrayed Jing Yuan, the strongest in the Lighthouse!
But when he walked down the street, nobody really paid any attention to him.
On the lighthouse, a kind of habitual thinking has really formed: who would take a commoner seriously?
4068 swaggered into the ecological laboratory and began cleaning.
At that moment, there was no one in the laboratory.
The words Charles had just said to him flashed through 4068's mind.
"To deal with Jing Yuan, the few of us are not enough. We need a weapon!"
"I heard that Morgan once stole a suit of armor from the people on the surface, called... the Abyssbreaker!"
"Not long ago, Morgan had Victor send the Abyss to Dr. Carrie and asked her to restart the Abyss project."
"I want you to go to the Ecological Research Institute, find the Abyss Warrior Armor, and all of Carrie's research on the Abyss Warrior Armor."
4068 was cleaning while looking around.
Suddenly, Carrie and her assistant came out of the laboratory inside.
Carrie said to her assistant, "Mark and Jingyuan go down to the ground every day, why can't I go down to the ground?"
"Jingnan replied that they haven't finalized the cooperation on ecological research with the ground team yet. With your personality, I'm afraid you might have to go down there..."
"What are you afraid of?"
"To avoid unnecessary misunderstandings!"
"Hmph!" Carrie was furious. "Come on, let's go find Jingnan. I have to get down to the ground today! If you don't let me, I'll jump down myself!"
Carrie is also furious. Ever since she learned about the existence of the surface people, she has wanted to go down to the surface and study how they survive there.
However, Mark strictly limited the number of people who went down to the ground.
Carrie was not granted the right to go down to the ground.
She applied repeatedly, but none of her applications were approved.
"Dr. Carrie!"
Carrie walked past 4068, who greeted her politely, but Carrie didn't even notice that there was someone next to her.
4068 was like air to her.
4068 gritted his teeth, watched Carrie leave, and then continued searching in the laboratory.
Finally, he saw a humanoid creature in the innermost laboratory.
"What is this? A Devouring Beast?"
4068 had never seen the Abyss Warrior Armor before, so when he saw it, he mistook it for a creature or a Devouring Beast.
He glanced to the side and saw a computer containing research logs.
After reviewing the research dates, 4068 realized that this was the Abyss Warrior Armor.
Unlike ordinary gravity armor, this armor is smaller in size but has a more ferocious design.
Gravity armor is clearly a product of technology.
The armor in front of us looks more like a living creature.
Without reading the research log, 4068 would never guess that this is the Abyss Warrior Armor.
As you continue watching, a chill runs down your spine.
The research log includes a scene of Carrie conducting experiments on living people.
A mortal suffering from the Bloodlust Disease entered the Abyss Warrior Armor. Not long after, the armor trembled, and a cloud of blood mist gushed out from the back of the armor.
This scene shocked 4068.
4068's first reaction was: This armor...it eats people!
In the log, Carrie's answer was that there was a rejection reaction inside the armor.
Carrie requested a healthy living subject for the experiment, but Morgan did not agree after learning of the results.
4068 knew that Jing Yuan was extremely powerful, and ordinary methods were simply ineffective against him.
Even if the Abyss Warrior Armor is very powerful, if it can't be used, it's just a pile of scrap metal.
Moreover, entering the armor will result in immediate death.
Although the test subject in the video was a patient with phlegm-related disease, who can guarantee that a normal person wouldn't die?
Charles has gone all in!
4068 had no way out now; he could only do as Charles instructed.
