Chapter 174 Looking for the Lighthouse
It was already night when we returned to Genting Base.

Mark has already arranged the mining of the source material veins, and it is estimated that they will be able to get the supplement of life source liquid in at most half a month.

As for the mining of the source of life crystals, it is a time-consuming and labor-intensive task, so it can only be done slowly.

Right now, they don't have to worry about food, and the food problem will soon be self-sufficient. Moreover, the energy problem is slowly being solved, so they don't need to worry about time.

After returning to the research institute at the base, Li Yuan began to study the bone fragment that Master Lai gave him, hoping to find some other clues from it.

But after studying it for a long time, he didn't see the reason. He still could only feel the faint aura coming from the bones and the faint connection, other than that, he had no other feelings.

Qing'er also lay on the side watching him concentrate on studying the bone fragments, and said casually: "This is not a human bone fragment."

As soon as these words came out, Li Yuan was stunned. He had also analyzed before who the owner of the bone fragments was, but judging from the current conditions and clues, it was impossible to determine its source.

It may be human, or it may not be human, because the beast created by Mana is derived from human genes and biological information.

Many pole-devouring beasts have human organs on their bodies. For example, the common pan-type pole-eating beast snake and dog have human palms.

Under the premise that multiple creatures have common characteristics, no one can guarantee which creature it comes from.

"Qing'er, how can you be so sure that it is not a bone fragment of a certain human being? I think it is very likely to be a part of a human being?" Li Yuan wondered.

He had previously speculated what Master Lai meant by giving him the bone fragments. Perhaps it was one of the corpses of a dead human on the lighthouse. Then he could sense the dead corpse through the weak connection and find the lighthouse.

This is the only clue he can get so far, otherwise it would be impossible to explain the guidance Master Lai said.

But Qing'er said that this is not a human skeleton, so it is very problematic.

"The human beings I mean are human beings like you." Qing'er did not deny Li Yuan's statement, but explained it.

"What do you mean?"

These words made Li Yuan stunned again, and he muttered to himself, a little confused, but the next moment, he suddenly understood, and he understood everything as soon as he patted his forehead.

"I understand, Qing'er, you are saying that it may indeed be a human bone fragment, but it is definitely not the skeleton of an ordinary human like me."

In Qing'er's cognition, she is actually different from Li Yuan. The difference lies in the way of birth, one is conceived by humans, and the other is created by Mana.

Mana has the ability to create human beings, such as king-level pole-eating beasts that are transformed, that's why she said that.

Qing'er nodded, her face sank slightly, she seemed to be able to feel something from the bone fragments, she grabbed Li Yuan's arm and said, "Li Yuan, can you stop holding it to find the lighthouse."

"Ah? Why? What's the matter with you?" Li Yuan was really puzzled. Qing'er had never been to a lighthouse, so logically speaking, she shouldn't feel disgusted towards the lighthouse. Her reaction was obviously very abnormal.

"Is there something wrong with you?" Seeing that Qing'er's complexion was not very good, Li Yuan touched her forehead. It is unlikely that an existence like her will get sick.

At this time, Qing'er took advantage of the situation to make a very painful expression, and asked weakly: "If I say that I feel uncomfortable, will you stay with me?"

"Of course, but if you want to tell me what's uncomfortable, maybe I can help you heal it." As he spoke, Li Yuan showed a smirk, and was about to put his hands on Qing'er.

"me……"

Qing'er faltered for a long time, but did not say why. Of course, Li Yuan would not give up looking for the lighthouse, so he comforted:

"I know you want to go with me, but Master Lai has warned you not to follow. That's why you think so, right? Don't worry, I will be back soon."

But this time Qing'er shook her head. She was not the kind of possessive person. She pestered Li Yuan just because she felt comfortable and at ease in front of Li Yuan.

But when she gets along with other people, she doesn't feel this way, so she usually stays alone.

"That bone fragment made me feel very depressed. Its owner must be a very powerful existence. Li Yuan, you may be in danger. I don't want you to have an accident." Qing'er hugged Li Yuan tightly, very worried Said.

"So it is."

Li Yuan nodded thoughtfully, patted Qing'er on the back to comfort her, thinking that the existence that can make Qing'er feel depressed is really not a simple thing.

But he also had no reason to doubt that Master Lai had harmed him. Although this was the answer he asked for on his own initiative, Master Lai would not give it to him if the trip was very dangerous.

After all, Master Lai only said whether he could find the lighthouse, and he was afraid that he would cause trouble afterwards, so he told him in advance that he might not be able to succeed.

Presumably, in the future predicted by Master Lai, he will indeed encounter danger, but it is not as dangerous as Qing'er imagined.

If he really encounters some irresistible force, he is not a fool, he will definitely give up immediately, and then run away, so there is no way to fight recklessly.

"Qing'er, don't underestimate me. If I run away at full speed, even you won't be able to catch up, so the danger is always one step behind me." Li Yuan joked, and the atmosphere suddenly became much happier.

Perhaps knowing that she could not change Li Yuan's mind, Qing'er did not persuade her, but took off a strand of her white hair and continued to inject her own power into it.

This process lasted for nearly half a minute, and Qing'er's face turned a little pale as she continued to output her strength.

In the end, the strand of white hair was woven into a heart-shaped imprint and handed over to Li Yuan: "Hold it, it will keep you safe, if you encounter any danger, just throw it out, and then use it Get away from it as fast as you can."

Li Yuan held the white hair mark and felt the terrifying spatial power contained in it. He couldn't help but be shocked. This thing was equivalent to a nuclear bomb, equivalent to Qing'er's full blow.

Seeing Qing'er's pale face, Li Yuan's heart warmed up, and he kissed her hard: "Qing'er, you are so kind to me."

"I just want you to come back quickly, don't overthink it." Qing'er pouted, with a proud expression on her face, and her eyes were filled with uncontrollable joy.

The next day, Li Yuan told Mark about his plan to go out to find the lighthouse, and the latter was very supportive of this matter. Anyway, the lighthouse is also the place where they have lived for so many years, and it is impossible to just give up.

Besides, there are many familiar people on the lighthouse. Mark is very worried about their safety. If he doesn't look for them now, it may be too late later.

In the past four months, although they have not actively searched for the lighthouse, they have been paying attention to their news all the time. Now that Li Yuan is looking for it personally, the matter is probably settled.
