"What the hell?"
"What did the lighthouse hit?"
"Impossible? This is [-] meters high!"
The shaking was strong and lasted for nearly 1 minute.
This made the wild hunters startled.
At this time, the entire lighthouse was also plunged into fear.
After all, this is the first time such a thing has happened!
"The lighthouse isn't going to crash, is it?"
"Could it be that the Pole Devourer is attacking the lighthouse?"
"Are you stupid? The Pole Devourer can fly?"
Panic spread in everyone's hearts, but at this time the broadcast in the Hunter's Hall rang.
"Captain Ye Chen, please go to the city master's room..."
Hearing this, Ye Chen couldn't help frowning.
Obviously, this should be related to the shaking just now.
"Is Ye Chen here?"
As soon as he entered the main room of the city, Ye Chen found that the heads of all departments of the lighthouse were there.
The last time it seemed that the lighthouse was besieged by Earth Roar three years ago.
"Let's report on the situation..."
Between the throne, Morgan spoke.
"50.00% loss of grain storage six.."
"Drugs lost 30.00%..."
"Ten outlying 'birdcages' were lost, 21 were killed, 10 were slightly injured, and 3 were seriously injured..."
Well...
Listening to everyone's words, Ye Chen felt a little baffled.
How did these losses come about?
Could it be that the Pole Devourer really attacked the lighthouse?
"Jingnan, how is the lighthouse?"
Morgan looked at Jingnan.
If things are gone, you can find them again, but if something goes wrong with the lighthouse, it's all over!
"The power equipment of the lighthouse is damaged. Although it has been repaired, the situation is not optimistic. The rotating pump must be replaced as soon as possible..."
Jingnan looked a little remorseful.
As the commander-in-chief of the lighthouse control room, there was such a problem.
In any case, she cannot absolve herself of the blame.
"Is that so?"
Standing aside, listening to Jingnan's words, Ye Chen finally understood.
It's just that the lighthouse is fine, why is it suddenly...
Thinking in this way, Ye Chen's gaze involuntarily fell on a certain person in the crowd.
This guy Charles is unusually quiet today.
He couldn't wait to jump on the table for conferences like those in the past.
"My lord, do you have any losses to report in the Light and Shadow Society?"
With a half-smile expression, Ye Chen looked at Charles.
"Captain Ye Chen, the Light and Shadow Society has the blessing of the Lord of Light and Shadow, and compared to this, the most important thing now is how to solve the current crisis!"
Charles smiled faintly.
I wanted to say something more, but Morgan interrupted: "Charles is right, the problem now is how to solve it, Jingnan, about turning the pump, is there any backup for the lighthouse?"
"Originally there was, but..."
Jing Nan hesitated to speak, while looking around at the people in the entire city master's room.
"Lost in this turmoil..."
lost?
Looking at Jingnan, Ye Chen frowned.
His major is Systems and Mechanics.
Important items like rotating shafts are generally stored in extremely safe places.
Not to mention the shaking just now, even if the Pole Devourer attacked, it would be impossible to lose this thing.
"Is that so? How long can the lighthouse last?"
After a while, Morgan asked.
"If the energy is sufficient, the lighthouse can stay in the air forever, and the function of the rotating shaft is only to control the direction of the lighthouse."
Ok.
Having said that, everyone immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, the atmosphere just now made it seem like the lighthouse would crash at any moment.
"How about this, Ye Chen, you organize a collection mission on the surface, you must find the rotating pump!"
Looking at Ye Chen, Morgan said.
This axis of rotation is like a human hand and foot.
No hands and no feet, that is a human stick.
It is impossible for a lighthouse to stay in one place for a lifetime.
"Okay! I'll go back and prepare!"
Without saying anything, Ye Chen nodded.
He takes whatever the lighthouse needs.
This is the job of the hunter.
What's more, this has risen to the safety of the lighthouse itself.
Without a lighthouse, there is no home.
It is very sad for a lost dog in this last days.
But before that...
Chapter 14 Pack up, let's go!
"Jingnan, borrow one to talk?"
As soon as he left the city master's room, Ye Chen called Jingnan to a halt.
This made Jingnan's body stagnate involuntarily.
"What's the matter, Ye Chen?"
There was a smile on his face, but Ye Chen, who was watching people's microcosm, could notice it.
The deeper layer of this smile is a kind of stiffness and panic.
"Can you show me the axis of rotation?"
呃 ..
Ye Chen's words startled Jingnan.
"What rotating shaft? Didn't I just say that the rotating shaft was lost..."
"Lost? I'm not your boyfriend, I'm not so easy to cheat..."
Ye Chen's words made Jingnan's face blush.
But then he also realized that the other party might have noticed something.
"To be honest, what happened to the rotating shaft? I have been engaged in this field before, and I know very well that such a core part cannot be lost so unclearly."
Hearing this, Jing Nan was silent for a while and said, "Come with me..."
Looking at Jingnan's slender back, Ye Chen smiled and followed.
Along the way, there are city defense forces maintaining order.
It seems that the previous turmoil has made people's hearts flutter a lot.
"That's it, you see, but I hope you don't say it..."
The material storage room of the lighthouse.
Jingnan opened a door.
Some materials are neatly placed together.
But Ye Chen's line of sight fell on a huge object.
"So... this is sabotage?"
Everything else on the rotating shaft is fine, but the core part is broken.
That smooth cut looks like it was made by a human.
"That's right, I was surprised when I first saw it, after all..."
Jingnan was a little sad.
The lighthouse is the common and only home of all human beings.
She can't figure out who is so crazy, isn't she afraid of dying together?
"The reason why you didn't report it was because you were afraid of causing a bigger commotion?"
Looking at Jingnan, Ye Chen said.
It is temporarily unclear who is a human and who is a ghost.
But once this matter is exposed, the entire lighthouse will fall into panic.
After all, someone in the shadows wants them all dead!
"Okay, I get it, don't worry, I won't say it, but you have to investigate this matter, this time it's just turning the shaft, next time it might be the control room of the entire lighthouse!"
After speaking, Ye Chen turned around and left.
But there was already a vague object of suspicion in his mind.
But there is no witness or physical evidence, and now is not the time to investigate the case as Conan.
"Bring me all the weapons and equipment, and check whether the firearms are normal. The Pole Devourer won't give you time to dawdle when you get off the surface!"
There was a crowd of people in the Hunter's Hall.
Armored vehicles and gravity bodies are debugging equipment.
And many new hunters have excited expressions on their faces.
I don't know whether to be happy or scared.
"The mission this time is a heavy industrial plant 100 kilometers away from the lighthouse. Although it has been abandoned for many years, there should be something we want..."
Next to the light and shadow screen, Ye Chen, the captain, explained the mission.
The previous mission locations were not too far from the lighthouse.
