Controlling the Marker

(It's the 25th, please vote! The quality should have improved recently, please support me.)

The reincarnator screamed in terror, wanting his companions to save him, but unfortunately, no one was willing to risk their life to step forward at that moment.

And so, the voice of the reincarnator grew fainter and fainter, and bloodstains could be seen seeping out from the gaps in the ventilation ducts.

"This unlucky guy is finished." The reincarnators began to check the surrounding ventilation ducts on their own initiative. Those reincarnators with superpowers sealed off these areas to prevent such incidents from happening again.

The B3-level reincarnator spoke up, "What a pity. That guy has good analytical skills, but his strength is too weak..."

Compared to the nonchalant attitude of the reincarnators, the characters in the story, the captain and crew, were terrified. They had just witnessed the lieutenant named Li Wei being pulled into the ventilation duct.

Just a moment ago, someone was alive and well, and now they've died. It truly shows how unpredictable life can be. The fact that I'm still alive is already a great blessing.

Currently, there are 31 reincarnators remaining on 'Earth Star'.

On the Ishimura, Li Wei kicked open the ventilation duct's barrier and nimbly jumped out.

If those reincarnators saw Li Wei, they would be so shocked they'd drop their teeth. No one would have imagined that this unlucky fellow who was captured by the Corpse-Slasher was still alive.

After Li Wei jumped down, a Corpse-Slasher also jumped down from the ventilation duct. Li Wei, however, was not afraid at all. He glanced at the Corpse-Slasher and muttered, "Blood Demon, I didn't expect you to have this supernatural power of controlling corpses. Teach me sometime. By the way, I'm also very interested in your spells that allow you to spit out many things from your mouth."

The Corpse-Slasher shuddered, and then a plume of white smoke seeped from its mouth and nose, solidifying in the air to reveal the form of Blood Demon. The Corpse-Slasher, having lost control, collapsed to the ground with a thud.

"Master, just tell me what you want to learn, and I will tell you everything I know." The Blood Demon looked as if he would go through fire and water for you.

"Alright, we'll talk about this later. You go explore Ishimura with the Pig Demon and the Flower Demon," Li Wei waved his hand. The Blood Demon chuckled and then vanished in a puff of smoke.

After thinking for a moment, Li Wei put on the Marine Corps helmet, opened the map, and walked towards compartment number 9.

At first, he orchestrated a play in the command center.

Li Wei had already planned this whole scheme when he encountered the Corpse-Slasher. Sometimes teammates can be helpful, and sometimes they can be obstacles. Initially, Li Wei couldn't act alone because of the rule that he couldn't stray too far from Gray. But now that rule had broken down, Li Wei immediately put his plan into action.

This feigned death allows him to divert attention away from himself as much as possible. Now, all the reincarnators probably believe that Li Wei is dead, and the dead person is naturally not the Destroyer.

Secondly, Li Wei can also maximize his strength, which not only allows him to secretly protect his own side of the Reincarnators, but also to completely cripple the opposing Reincarnators when they enter.

As long as one's identity is unknown, then the 'Destroyer Slayer' is of no use.

Now, with less than 16 hours until the Blue Blood Star Domain Reincarnators enter, Li Wei must find the Marker and study it within this time.

Intuitively, Li Wei felt that the stone was the key to this mission.

Cabin 9 was located in the lower middle part of the Ishimura. Along the way, there were countless monsters, all of which were terrifying creatures that Li Wei had never seen before. The destructive power of some of these mutated monsters was so great that even Li Wei found them somewhat troublesome.

Half an hour later, Li Wei arrived at Cabin 9. Each main cabin door was extremely heavy, and without the passage order, Li Wei could only rely on the Behemoth's Power to tear open the heavy metal doors with his bare hands.

Upon entering the cabin, which was about half the size of a football field, Li Wei immediately saw the red Marker fixed by several metal frames. Its spiral shape indicated that it was man-made. Upon closer inspection, the Marker was densely covered with strange symbols, and subtle fluctuations emanated from Marker.

In an instant, Li Wei was subjected to a mental attack from the Marker.

The mental attack was extremely powerful. Even a weaker person, or a reincarnator with a mental strength below 100 points, would go mad under its influence and be controlled by the Marker. However, Li Wei possessed the Sky Fox Physique, which excels in mental strength, and his 300 points of mental strength easily withstood the Marker's attack.

Instantly, the Marker shone brightly, Li Wei could feel that the spiritual energy fluctuations had become even stronger. In addition, the roar of a monster could be heard outside the cabin.

"Hmph, so you're calling for help now?" Li Wei sneered, increasing his mental energy output. He wanted to turn the tables and take control of the Marker.

The clash of these two powerful spiritual forces was comparable to a duel between masters. Strange electric currents occasionally surged through the air. Li Wei began to move, step by step, approaching them.

The red glow on the Marker was even stronger, and the mysterious runes engraved on it were also highlighted, clearly indicating that it was desperately resisting Li Wei's attack.

Several enormous monsters (pregnant monsters) and Corpse-Slasher rushed in, howling as they pounced on Li Wei. But Li Wei ignored them, his eyes fixed on the Marker, constantly increasing the output of his mental energy.

This was a war that seemed simple, but was actually extremely dangerous. If either side lost, it would be utterly annihilated. Fortunately, Li Wei's high mental strength paved the way for his victory.

When the monster's sharp bone blades were less than two centimeters away from Li Wei, they stopped moving, withdrew their attack, took a few steps back, and stood quietly in place, like soldiers waiting for inspection.

Li Wei, however, suddenly bent over, covered in sweat, and panting heavily.

"That was close, I almost failed." The consequence of using a lot of mental energy was extreme physical exhaustion, but Li Wei was not worried about encountering any danger at the moment.

He has just completely taken control of the Marker.

This stone, to put it simply, is like a computer; as long as one's mental strength is strong enough, one can gain control of it. And the monsters spawned from it all became Li Wei's loyal subordinates.

"All monsters, cease your killing spree and assemble in compartment 9..." Li Wei only managed to issue this order before his head lolled to the side and he fainted.

Li Wei, whose mental energy was severely depleted, didn't know how long he had slept. When he opened his eyes again, cabin number 9 was filled with all sorts of monsters.

An ordinary person would probably go crazy on the spot if they were here. Even Li Wei, who knew he had control over these monsters, couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.

Looking at the time, Li Wei thought to himself, "That was close."

With less than 10 minutes left until the 24-hour deadline, fortunately, he had his biggest trump card: the Marker and the monster.

"Blue Blood Star Domain Reincarnators, I am now looking forward to your arrival." Li Wei looked at the hundreds of various alien monsters in front of him and a smile appeared on his lips.

The cargo hold at the stern of the Ishimura.

Suddenly, a burst of blue light erupted from the empty cabin, followed by a second, a third...

The blue light stopped after reaching 20 beams, and then 20 figures appeared inside the supply cabin.

Seven people seemed completely unaffected by the blue light transmission, while thirteen people on the ground were either unconscious or dizzy, but they all recovered quickly.

"Is this the mission we're on?" Among the first seven people, a tall man with azure skin asked.

A flash of blue light appeared, and thousands of tiny scales emerged on his skin, making him look like a Lizardman.

In fact, he really did have a tail.

The rest of the group were dressed similarly, but the first seven wore particularly thick scale armor. At that moment, a Corpse-Slasher suddenly rushed out of the ventilation duct and pounced on the first seven.

"Trash creature, you dare to come looking for death?" The blue-armored man who spoke first remained motionless, but with a flick of his tail, the terrifying Corpse-Slasher was cleaved in two.

The Corpse-Slasher are extremely resilient; they will not lose their fighting ability unless their central nervous system and brain are destroyed.

The severed Corpse-Slasher continued to crawl forward on its hands, but was then drenched in a cloud of blue liquid by another blue-armored man. The Corpse-Slasher let out a few hiss and collapsed, its body corroded beyond recognition by the sulfuric acid-like liquid.

"Stop wasting time, check the mission," the blue-armored man who appeared to be the leader said in a deep voice. Soon, his companions all summoned their own Yellow Paper, but only he summoned a Black Paper.

Black Paper represents the Destroyer.

"Team battle?" The Destroyer with the Black Paper was taken aback, then revealed a ferocious look. "Very good, the enemy entered the mission world before us, which means their overall combat strength is weaker than ours."

"Lan Lin, with you here, no enemy can pose a threat to us," another person said obsequiously.

"Not necessarily," the Destroyer called Lan Lin said coldly. "To balance the power, the Main God not only delayed our entry but also added two items. I think what the Main God wants to tell us is that the opponent is indeed weaker than us, but they also have the ability to kill us."

"However, the appearance of that Destroyer also indicates that the enemy's greatest combat strength, like ours, is also Destroyer. It can be said that whoever finds the enemy's Destroyer first and eliminates it with this item will basically win."

Lan Lin thought for a moment, then turned around and said, "Which of you has these two items? Hand them over."

The blue-blooded people behind him were all taken aback, clearly hesitant.

Lan Lin, however, let out a sinister laugh, opened his mouth and stuck out his tongue, which, like a bullet, instantly pierced through the head of a blue-blooded man.
