"Uncle."

After hearing what Arthur said, Heros smiled and said, "Actually, if you want, you can directly replace Morgan and Mark's."

"Well, it is indeed not difficult." Arthur did not deny it, but changed the topic:

"But everything needs to be rational. We are new here, and we don't have the support of Confidentiality Agreement. There are too many hidden dangers after replacing Morgan and Mark, and there is no benefit in doing so.

On the other hand, if Mark is promoted to the position, he can not only comply with the will of the people, but also ensure the stability of the lighthouse."

"Then... what should we do?" Heros asked.

"After my observation, it seems that Jing Nan can be used as a breakthrough. Her attitude towards the city lord is very respectful, and she also has a good relationship with Mark and Ran Bing, so that more useful information can be obtained." Arthur explained.

"Jing Nan?" Heros was stunned and said, "Uncle, how are you sure she will tell you the information?"

"Hoo~!" Hearing his nephew's question, Arthur raised his left hand and brushed his long hair bangs, and said confidently:

"Who do you think your uncle is? I was the one who molested half of the maids in our palace back then, and got all the girls to Primarch Mother.

So, it's really trivial to capture a girl who is emotionally blank, besides, I've already figured out Jing Nan's nature, it's simple."

"Really?" Heros frowned slightly, leaned back and questioned:

"But I heard that the maids don't have a very good opinion of your style. And uncle... if you want to talk about looks, I seem to be better."

"Hey?! You brat!" Seeing that his nephew dared to hurt him, Arthur sat up from the bed.

He made a fist with his right hand and hit Heros on the top of his head, and told him, "Okay, go back to your room and rest.

Tomorrow you will lead the bodyguards and the Mad Tooth Shark to go to the Hunters to exchange combat experience and take the opportunity to improve their familiarity."

"Yes, uncle, leave those little things to me, and don't worry, uncle, I won't tell Aunt Karl about your pick-up with girls."

"You really need to be taught a lesson!"

"Hahaha! I'm leaving, uncle, good night!"

Heros quickly opened the automatic door of the room and ran to the next room.

Seeing Heros leave, Arthur couldn't help shaking his head and smiling. After all, his nephew had a bad face in front of outsiders and always maintained the majesty that a demigod should have. Only in front of his family could he behave more humanely.

Later.

Arthur took off his short sleeves, combat pants, and military boots, went to the bathroom in the house to take a shower, put on the pajamas prepared for him by the lighthouse, and lay down on a relatively comfortable single bed to fall asleep.

I have to say that Lighthouse Upper Class's treatment is indeed good, but this will only worsen the rift between Upper Class and Dust Person.

Early the next morning.

The lighthouse is still over the Gobi on the edge of the desert. The bottom is about 1,400 meters above the ground. There are a large number of Extinction Beast wandering on the ground, most of which are Serpent Dog.

Moreover, these Extinction Beast seem to be clustered under the lighthouse intentionally or unintentionally, while there are much fewer Extinction Beast in other areas.

The morning sun shines on this continent and also on the lighthouse.

The solar panels on the outer layer of the "mushroom" area of the lighthouse absorb Light Energy while also reflecting light, making the entire lighthouse extremely shiny.

A large number of hanging areas under the 'mushroom', as well as various areas at the 'root', have entered working condition.

A large number of workers Dust Person began routine inspections and maintenance of the lighthouse to ensure that the lighthouse can fly in the sky for a longer period of time.

The area where the above name lives appears to be no different from a city in the normal world.

Many Upper Classs with specific identities, such as doctors, nurses, engineers, guards, etc., go to the coffee shop to drink a cup of coffee in the morning before rushing to work.

There are more Upper Class. Since there are no work arrangements today, they choose to continue to sleep in the room, or use electronic equipment recycled from the old world for entertainment.

In short, Dust Person is equivalent to the working status of 797, while Upper Class is the standard 995.

Of course, even if Dust Person is so squeezed, he can still enjoy the hardships.

For example, in the play, 0609 secretly hid a TV for other Dust Person to watch DVDs, or 4277 brought contraband wine and shared it with 4068 and 4079.

But these joys and happiness amid suffering cannot be directly observed by Arthur, who has just arrived at this lighthouse.

If Arthur were to witness it directly, it would intensify his desire to put Mark in power and then completely reform the lighthouse system.

After all, the direct reason why the lighthouse is divided into Dust Person and Upper Class is due to material issues.

But now that we have Heros, the bodyguards, the Mad Tooth Shark, and the Flying Formation in the air, supplies will no longer trouble the lighthouse.

As for the reason why you cannot fall in love freely and start a family, the play mentions that it is because emotional fluctuations will intensify the release of pheromones from the source of life.

When Ran Bing was in the Dawn Hall and Mark was furious 1vN, a large number of Serpent Dog gathered under the lighthouse, so this was the reason why the lighthouse put an end to free love.

Now, William, Halsey and Serena in the main world have watched all the episodes of the first season, and naturally they know that emotions are inseparable from Extinction Beast.

However, Arthur, who is in the middle of the game, temporarily thinks that Extinction Beast is just Anomalous Creature.

But none of this matters.

In the face of absolute strength, everything is illusory, so Arthur only needs to consider how to protect the tens of thousands of humans on the lighthouse.

Back to business.

Early morning.

08:54.

Arthur's room.

"Huh... ha... huh..." Heavy breathing echoed in the room.

Just look at Arthur, who is barefoot, wearing black combat pants, and shirtless, doing handstand push-ups next to the wall near the door.

Although he has Russell Family's [giant strength], this small amount of exercise has no effect on his muscles at all, but at least it can make the muscles full of blood, making them look much bigger than without exercise.

By the way, he hasn't done any exercise for a long time, but in order for 'Sacrifice Appearance' to get more information from Jing Nan, Arthur had to do the most physically demanding handstand push-ups.

"Ding dong~." At this moment, the bell came from his door.

'You're here so early? You're lucky enough to save me from doing push-ups in vain.'

Arthur said in his heart, while raising the corners of his mouth, he raised his voice and said:

"The door is unlocked, come in."

At the same time as he finished speaking, Arthur was about to finish his push-ups, and the automatic door of the house just opened.

"Russell first... ah!"

I saw Jing Nan, who was still wearing a gorgeous uniform, but whose hair was carefully taken care of. He just walked into the room and was ready to talk to Arthur, but when he saw the shirtless Arthur, he turned around with a red face.

She turned her back to Arthur and said in a trembling tone, "Mr. Arthur... please put on your clothes first... ok?"

"Haha, I thought it was my nephew, but I didn't expect it was Miss Jing. It was my mistake."

Arthur smiled apologetically, then turned and walked towards the bed, preparing to change into black combat short-sleeves.

However, at this time, Jing Nan used his peripheral vision to peek at Arthur.
