People are in the lighthouse, Bai Yuekui wants to team up with me

Chapter 260 Tracking
Mana's purpose for capturing living people is still unknown. I only know that these predators only capture one person at a time, and they are not greedy for too many.

This is also a good thing for the surviving humans. They will not die at any time and are not as dangerous as before. However, the hidden dangers are more dangerous.

Because the predators are endless, Mana can create them infinitely. Even if this batch dies, Mana will create another batch in a short time.

In contrast to human survivors, their breeding needs to go through a long process, and it will take at least ten years to cultivate the next generation.

Taking the current moving castle as an example, there are a lot of thousands of people. Even if they lost 50 people this time to the predators, one-twentieth, it doesn't seem like a lot.

But what you need to know is that once these fifty people are lost, there is no way to replenish them, at least there is no way to replenish them immediately.

Moreover, the predators would not only attack once. If they failed completely and lost fifty people every time the polar devouring beasts attacked, then they would gradually fall into a disadvantage in the confrontation with the predators until they were completely defeated.

In less than a dozen times, they will wipe out the entire army. At that time, there will not be a single living person left in the entire moving castle.

This is a game of cutting sausages. Mana eats away at humans bit by bit and boils frogs in warm water. Once humans have any slack thoughts, the final result is death.

Therefore, in the face of the attack of the predator Pole Devourer, the moving castle must go all out to minimize the loss, or there is no loss.

Seeing this, Li Yuan couldn't help but fell into deep thought. Mana's ultimate goal is to let her huge consciousness come down. It can be seen that He deliberately chooses human beings as the carrier.

As for the specific implementation plan, after coming to this continent, Li Yuan guessed that Mana may have achieved this goal through a long process of screening and integration.

But from the current point of view, Mana seems to have given up on this idea. Maybe he also thinks that this plan will take too long.

As we all know, the longer the time, the easier it is for the plan to deviate from the planned trajectory, and there are more risks. Mana may have predicted changes in the future, or she may not be able to wait any longer, so she terminated the plan.

As for Mana's behavior of arresting survivors, Li Yuan believed that He must have formulated a brand-new plan for descending consciousness. This process requires the use of humans, or the carrier has not changed at all, and they are still humans, so they need to be arrested.

Of course, it is also possible that Mana invested part of his consciousness on the human survivors of this continent before. Now that this plan is no longer implemented, he will withdraw his consciousness.

The process of regaining consciousness requires the Pole Devourer to capture the human survivors, so the current series of things happened.

This is not Li Yuan's pure guess, but evidence, that is, when predators choose targets to attack, they tend to prefer those human beings who have sacrificed the source of life.

By sacrificing the source of life, the human survivors on this continent obtained the power bestowed by Mana. Those who sacrificed may not know the specific source of these powers, but Li Yuan is very clear.

Mana gave her own power to the human sacrificer by descending part of her consciousness, which is equivalent to a means of protection, protecting her own consciousness from being infringed, and at the same time protecting the host.

However, he also heard from Gu Yao that these predators not only captured humans, but also captured alien races from their homeland, which seemed unreasonable.

Li Yuan also couldn't figure it out, maybe only after finding those captured humans would he know what Mana was going to do.

At this time, the gray leopard marauder who recovered first readjusted its formation, charged above the moving castle again, and rushed towards the people below.

Since the large army of ground predators did not keep up, Long Zhan did not choose to activate the low-sound wave generator, but ordered the defense coalition to try to prevent the gray leopard from diving.

In order to effectively reduce the gray leopard's threat to the moving castle, the Manshan tribe specially built an electric tower above the castle. When the gray leopard approaches, it will release a high-frequency current. loss of mobility.

But the gray leopard is an excellent hunter after all, with extremely fast speed and vigorous action. No matter how perfect the defense is, there will always be omissions. Soon, several gray leopards broke through the blocking of the electric tower and rushed into the moving castle .

For the fish that slipped through the net, the defense coalition forces had long been prepared to deal with them, and immediately surrounded the gray leopards as soon as they arrived.

However, the gray leopards have also summed up some experience through many fights. Before the defense coalition forces approached, they immediately grabbed a survivor and flew away.

The gray leopard completes an attack very quickly, sometimes it takes less than ten seconds from falling to flying away, and some even capture people directly in mid-air.

This time, except for the gray leopard that was stopped, three humans were very unlucky and became the target of the gray leopard and were taken away. Their figures disappeared into the sky in just half a minute.

Where there is war, there will be death. The Moving Castle will not give up resistance just because it lost three people. On the contrary, the rest of the people will work harder after seeing this scene.

They didn't even have time to be sad, because the predators would not give them a break, and everyone was distracted, waiting to deal with the next attack.

At this moment, Li Yuan's mind is not on the moving castle and these people, because he knows that even if he doesn't take action, the moving castle can still deal with the attack of the pole-devouring beast.

His eyes turned to the distance, staring closely at the few gray leopards that flew away after he succeeded.

After a while, Li Yuan had already made up his mind, and said in a deep voice: "Fantie, I'm going to see where those gray leopards are going to take people, and I'll leave it to you here."

"Well, don't worry." Vatican nodded. With her current strength, it is no problem to deal with king-level beasts, let alone a group of predators.

With her here, nothing will happen to the moving castle, and Li Yuan can rest assured.

He didn't hesitate, and immediately jumped up, looking for the direction where the gray leopard left.

The speed of gray leopards is indeed very fast, and most people would not be able to catch up with them. However, Li Yuan is now a cultivator in the Yawei state, and he can cover a hundred feet in one step. It is easy to catch up with them. To the figure of the gray leopard.

Those captured humans had already been swallowed by the gray leopards into the vesicular membranes of their abdomens, and they galloped towards the west side of the continent, not paying any attention to Li Yuan who was following behind them.

In order not to startle the snake, Li Yuan concealed his breath all the way, did not reveal his whereabouts, and hung far behind Gray Leopard.

Two hours passed like this, and those gray leopards were still on their way, and they still had no intention of stopping. Li Yuan couldn't help frowning, and became anxious in his heart.

At this moment, he was far away from the Moving Castle, at least hundreds of kilometers. If this continues, he may chase him until dark.
