Chapter 15: The Foul-Mouthed Villain
When a few people arrived in the courtroom, there were already many people waiting here, including the one who had just met the Lotus Light.
In other words, the costume of this lotus light is really interesting, obviously it is a woman, but she is wearing a helmet that covers the upper half of her face, a tight black uniform, and long boots under her feet, showing two long legs, and even a little curve of the buttocks.
However, Xuan Mo just glanced at it, and then he didn't squint, this woman's figure was okay, but her temperament was too arrogant, and she seemed to have been brainwashed.
At the signal of the city lord Morgan, all departments began to report their work, and without him for the time being, Xuan Mo stood honestly behind Mark.
The first report was the harvest of the hunters, reported by Ran Bing, hearing that all kinds of important harvests were told by Ran Bing, no one spoke, and there was no doubt that everyone was very satisfied with this harvest.
After talking about the harvest, it is natural to talk about the situation of battle damage, and the statistics in this regard are the responsibility of Jing Nan, and when she said that Shangmin lost more than thirty people and a set of heavy cube mechas, some people expressed dissatisfaction.
"Lord of the City, the people of the lighthouse live a stable life under the protection of the Lord of Light and Shadow, and the returning warriors are all being baptized by the Lord of Light and Shadow, but this time the casualties are too heavy, is it the slackness of the hunters in their actions?"
It was a blonde man who spoke, and his tone was more arrogant than that of the Lotus Light and the priest, coupled with the meaning expressed in the words, Xuan Mo knew that this man was the leader of the Light and Shadow Society, and he was also the son of the city lord who had been hiding.
Faced with this act of pouring dirty water on himself, Mark couldn't bear it, and stood up and said, "Lord of the City, this time the Hunter has made a major discovery on the ground. ”
Everyone looked at Mark, and then glanced at Xuan Mo behind him.
"The big discovery you said... That's him? The blonde man raised his hand and pointed at Xuan Mo.
"That's just one of them, the Pole Eaters are reproducing faster than we expected, and they're oversized in them, but more importantly... We see humanity. ”
"Shhhh Isn't it still him? The blonde man said disdainfully.
Xuan Mo finally couldn't help it, what kind of tone did he have in this mouthful!
"Hey, I've put up with you for a long time, the Lord of Light and Shadow made you brag so much, so you asked him to send you supplies? Also, can you listen to someone finish speaking, don't you even have this kind of upbringing? ”
Xuan Mo's words made many people stare at him, with different eyes.
"You... How dare you, an outsider, question the great Lord of Light and Shadow! "The blonde man is very sloppy.
The disdainful eyes of a few people are vaguely staring at the blonde man, here are the core high-level of the lighthouse, the so-called Lord of Light and Shadow everyone understands what is going on, it is just a tool to fool the dusters, bringing them faith at the same time, it is also suppressing them, and it is also a means of counterbalancing internal forces.
But there are really few people standing here who take this religion seriously, just a tool, and only this fool is immersed in it because he enjoys the power, and he really takes himself seriously.
Xuan Mo pursed his lips and didn't squeak, but at this time, Mark spoke at the right time, attracting everyone's attention again.
"The human being I'm talking about isn't Xuan Mo, it's a woman standing on the shoulders of a king-level devouring beast."
"How is that possible?" A voice of disbelief rang out.
The blonde man spoke again, his tone sarcastic, and said, "Captain Mark, you can lead a convoy full of supplies to highlight the beast tide is indeed heroic, but you said that there are humans on the ground?" I'm afraid it's not because scarlet is interfering with my judgment. ”
At this moment, everyone's eyes turned strange when they looked at the blonde man.
"Brains are a good thing, but it's a pity you don't." Xuan Mo muttered, although it was muttering, but everyone heard it.
The blonde man's face froze, and then he remembered that there was another ready-made example.
"Alright." The city lord on the high platform spoke, but the old man's eyes were staring sharply at Xuan Mo at this time, but in fact, Xuan Mo noticed that since this city lord came in, his eyes seemed to be staring at him unintentionally.
"Can you tell us where you're from, and if there are any other living people on the ground?"
Everyone quieted down, and their eyes focused on Xuan Mo.
"I don't remember where it came from, after all, the ground is so chaotic, and they are hiding in Tibet all the time, as for other living people, there should be, after all, I am a ready-made example, the base of human beings is so huge, even if there is a natural disaster, there will always be some survivors."
"How can you survive on the ground!" The blonde man gritted his teeth and walked up to Xuan Mo and glared at him angrily.
The latter didn't squint and didn't even look at the guy.
"Xuan Mo's strength is very strong, without relying on mecha and thermal weapons, he can defeat an Extreme Devourer with a single knife." Mark said.
"What!" The blonde man couldn't help but take two steps back and distance himself from Xuan Mo.
The rest of the people also looked at Xuan Mo with surprised eyes, and only then did they consciously notice the exaggerated big knife behind Xuan Mo.
The city lord looked directly into Xuan Mo's eyes, and the latter looked back at him without timidity.
In the middle of the sound, the city lord took the lead in looking away and said, "I believe Mark's words, since you have come to the lighthouse, then live here well, give you the status of a citizen, and serve under Mark." ”
"But Lord City Lord, his genes haven't been tested yet..."The blonde man seemed to be inherently wrong with Xuan Mo, and immediately jumped out to find fault after hearing the city lord's words.
However, this time the city lord couldn't reply to him, and a female doctor in charge of the scientific research institution responded to his words, "Lord Huishou, you can defeat the Extreme Devourer with just a sword, such a physical quality is difficult for the people who have undergone special training to achieve, and this kind of powerful individual, there will be no genetic defects." ”
The blonde man was silent.
Seeing this scene, the city lord sighed silently, then stood up and said, "I'm old, I can't hold on for long... But the lighthouse's course still has to continue, and it's time to put the lighthouse at the helm of the young man. ”
The words of the city lord fell, and everyone understood what he meant, this is to announce the successor! At this time, the blonde man was in good spirits again, and took a step forward with his head held high, he thought that this position would definitely be his, after all, he was the son of the city lord!
"This man needs a strong will and a noble character, so... I declare that the next lord of the castle will be succeeded by Mark. ”
Everyone was shocked, and their eyes looked at Mark in unison, except for the blonde man, who had lost his soul.
"Why! He is a reckless man, why should he become the last guardian of mankind! The blonde man's tone was a little hissed, and he acted frantically.
"Mark has done his best for the lighthouse, and he will succeed him as the lord of the city, isn't it the arrangement of the Lord of Light and Shadow?" The city lord said that since his son was immersed in the shroud of light and shadow, he could only use the lord of light and shadow to suppress him.
"Father!" The blonde man finally shouted.
At this time, everyone's eyes were on the two of them in surprise, Gu didn't expect that the two still had such a relationship, no wonder the light and shadow would be handed over to him to take care of...
Knowing that he had lost his mouth, the blonde man hung his head.
Glancing at him angrily, the lord of the city announced the adjournment of the meeting, and did not say anything to Timac from beginning to end, and many people knew that it was not that he had forgotten, but that he was deliberately avoiding it.
The wise and foolish Mark naturally knew this, so he didn't mention it, but he made up his mind to investigate it himself.
Mark was called away by the city lord, and the rest of the people dispersed.
"This is your residence, if you don't understand anything, just ask Ran Bing, I still have something."
"Thanks, Nan Girl." Xuan Mo said.
Jing Nan smiled slightly and turned to leave.
