Chapter 9: The Spirit Cage

"What the hell is this place!" When he opened his eyes, it was pitch black, and when Xuan Mo took out the prepared flashlight from the guild hall to illuminate it, the scene that caught his eyes stunned him.

Corpses, densely packed corpses, standing or kneeling, in a thousand postures, and the characteristics of the corpses are very strange, they look like scorched earth! If it weren't for the fact that his appearance was too hideous, retaining the struggle of the deceased, he would have almost been deceived.

In addition to these meat soils, Xuan Mo also noticed a lot of metal boxes, but he didn't know what they were for.

"Ding! The teleportation is complete, and the Protector mission is now released... To protect the people of the lighthouse, Donnie the Hunter and Penny the Hunter will return to the lighthouse safely, and 500 Protection Coins will be rewarded and 500 Protection Coins will be deducted if they fail. ”

Two people! The difficulty of the task has increased greatly, but there is only a reward and punishment of 500 protection coins, and it will not be too difficult to think of the task, of course, it is not ruled out that the mission target has too little luck.

The more luck the target of the system releases the task, the more protection coins will be used to release the task.

Merely...

"System, I've teleported to this world, can you tell me what kind of world this is?" Xuan Mo said, the task information released by the system gave him a sense of familiarity, but he just couldn't grasp the point.

"Ding! This world is a spirit cage. The system replied succinctly, but that was enough.

Spirit Cage!

"It turned out to be this world." Xuan Mo glanced around again and immediately confirmed where he was, most likely in the abandoned spaceship at the beginning of the plot.

Spirit cage, spirit refers to the soul, cage refers to the body, this is a doomsday wasteland world, originally human beings were preparing to enter the galaxy, but after a vision of heaven and earth, human beings are no longer the masters on the ground, and can only rely on spaceships to survive in the air.

However, Xuan Mo has another view on the definition of the spirit cage, and the 'cage' does not necessarily refer to the physical body.

Knowing what kind of world he was in, Xuan Mo didn't think about it, with the lesson of the last time, when he took out the simple exoskeleton protective suit he brought out from the wandering world and put it on, he was relieved after buttoning the mask.

The ship he was in wasn't safe, with two monsters entrenched, the Spine Gu and the Extreme Eater, the former being a monster that could cut through the human body and control it, with a body the size of a human arm, and a scarlet toxin that could hallucinate people.

The latter is a monster that can suck the soul or essence of humans, the size is larger than that of an adult elephant, but its agility is not lower than that of a tiger, and the most important thing is that the cells of this thing divide extremely fast, and it is difficult to really kill it, as if its source of life lies in the soul, not the body.

Poop! Poop!

The sound of the gate prying sounded, and it should be that the hunter team appeared, Xuan Mo carried the demon knife behind his back, and the rifle was in his hand, with the muzzle facing down.

"Bang! The gate was opened, and a team of armed firearms appeared in front of Xuan Mo, led by an exceptionally strong man.

Bang!

"Hello." Glancing at the bullet that hit the rifle and then fell at his feet, Xuan Mo casually left the broken rifle on the ground, and then greeted him casually.

The group on the other side was dumbfounded.

"You're... Person? In the group, the handsome-looking man stammered, he had fired a shot earlier.

"Isn't that obvious?" Xuan Mo rolled his eyes, and then took off the glass mask on his head.

"Oh my God, man!"

There were exclamations from the ranks.

Xuan Mo: "......" These guys are sick.

At this time, the stout man in the lead spoke, "Your Excellency is also a lighthouse person?" The voice was intriguing, and it seemed a little skeptical.

Xuan Mo shook his head.

"Are you one of the other people in the Floating City?" The stout man's voice was a little excited.

Xuan Mo still shook his head.

"Then you—" The man's voice stopped abruptly, and he thought of some kind of terrifying possibility.

"You won't, just on the ground." The handsome man grew his mouth.

Xuan Mo smiled noncommittally.

"On the ground, there's still a living person on the ground!?"

"Why can't there be, our human base is so huge, it's not surprising that some survived." Xuan Mo said nonsense.

"You're saying there's a lot of living people on the ground?" The sturdy man came to Xuan Mo excitedly, and then seemed to feel a little abrupt, and introduced himself: "My name is Mark, and I am the captain of this team. ”

"My name is Mocheng."

"I'm Donnie."

"Ran Bing."

"My name is Penny."

The few people behind Mark introduced them in turn, and then stared at Xuan Mo expectantly.

"My name is Xuan Mo, and I don't know how many living people there are on the ground, because I'm the only one now."

"What!" Qi Qi exclaimed.

"How is it possible, how can you survive on the ground with only one person!" The handsome man couldn't believe it.

Xuan Mo patted the demon knife behind his back, "Because I'm strong enough." ”

“……”

The crowd was silent, and the atmosphere was a little gloomy.

"Forget it, no matter where Xuan Mo is from, anyway, you are only one person now, do you want to go to the lighthouse with us?" Mark suddenly said as if he had seen it.

"Lighthouse?" Xuan Mo pretended to be puzzled, he naturally knew what the lighthouse was, but he couldn't say it directly.

"Well, the lighthouse, the last of humanity... Pure Land. ”

Xuan Mo nodded, agreed, and joined the hunting team in this way.

This is also because humans in this world are scarce resources, so Captain Mark can let him, an unknown person, join in so easily, otherwise it would be two words.

And Xuan Mo believes that when he gets to the lighthouse, there will be trouble, after all, Mark is a big-headed soldier to put it bluntly, and the lighthouse is not up to him.

The group began to carry the iron boxes, while Xuan Mo kept an eye out for a bearded man and a blonde woman with a single ponytail in the Hunters' team, and through the previous introduction, he knew that the two were Donnie and Penny, his targets for protection.

"Hey, brother, you're pretty handsome." However, at this moment, a figure approached and said, it was the man with a slightly handsome temperament, Mo Cheng.

Turning sideways slightly, dodging Mo Cheng's hand to touch the demon knife, Xuan Mo smiled: "When you use it to cut people, you will find that you are more handsome." ”

"Heh... Hehe. Mo Cheng withdrew his hand in embarrassment.

"You've ever killed someone?" A crisp and slightly scrutinizing voice sounded on the other side, and when Xuan Mo looked at it, it was Ran Bing, who had silver hair and blue eyes.

"Don't tell me lighthouses don't kill." Saying that, Xuan Mo glanced at the group of people who were carrying the supplies, these people did not have any weapons and equipment, and if they were really in danger, these people did not have any power to resist, they were the dust people of the lighthouse.

In the lighthouse, there are two kinds of people, the people and the dusters, the people are like nobles, they enjoy the highest treatment, and the dusters are like slaves, and if you don't do a small thing well, you may lose your life.

This is not something that can be determined by an individual's hard work, but by nature, if the gene is perfect, he is born into a people, and if he has a defective gene, he is born a mortal.

Ran Bing immediately had nothing to say.

Xuan Mo shrugged his shoulders and walked around with a few people, taking on the job of vigilance, he didn't want to move supplies as well.

"Wow..."

Ran Bing let out a slight exclamation, his eyes staring straight in one direction.

A few people looked.

"It's the shell of the Polar Eater." Mark, who was standing in front of him, said, his eyes solemn.
