Chapter 727: Hope of Regaining Light

Xia Fan leaned over the terrace on the fourth floor, overlooking the dark well below.

At this time, the sky was drizzling, and layers of gray fog accumulated above his head. The same was true in the depths of the well wall, and wisps of white smoke could be seen rising upwards.

But that was not rain or fog.

According to the Salvation Church, the temperature in the well sometimes rises abnormally, and it is even difficult to survive without wearing protective clothing. Even at ordinary times, there are occasional heat flows.

These white smokes are condensed heat flows.

When he saw the log of the Black Gate Church before, he once suspected that the rainy climate here was caused by the Baiyao Mountains and had nothing to do with the "Kingdom of Heaven". Now he believes that this well does have the ability to change the celestial phenomena.

When the project is magnificent to a certain extent, it itself becomes part of the planet.

"Where is Li?"

Someone asked behind him.

Then a figure approached, it was the Venerable Shengtian.

Although he was a little surprised why she was staring at him, Xia Fan still answered truthfully, "She went to the bathhouse with the princess and kicked me out before they went."

Although the houses here are equipped with shower rooms, the shower heads have long been aging, and the Salvation Church does not know how to repair them, so they arranged a separate place for bathing. Since the envoys lived together and used the same bathhouse, Xia Fan was automatically asked to leave the room.

Of course, he was not the only one who was asked to leave.

"Really?" The Venerable couldn't help but reveal a look of relief, "I have met with His Holiness the Pope. He will discuss with you and Princess Guangping in detail tomorrow. I hope that you can fulfill your promises."

"Your Highness the Princess always keeps her word, and so do I." Xia Fan shrugged, "What about you? Not everyone should welcome Jinxia's arrival, right?"

"There will inevitably be disagreements." Li Mengyun said indifferently, "But His Holiness the Pope is different from the Privy Council. He is wise and cares about the people. As long as you can prove that you are a unique listener, I think it will be useless for others to object." She paused here, "But you... are you sure that you can make the whole skylight bright?"

That's right, Li Mengyun's statement in front of His Holiness the Pope was not complete.

She deliberately omitted the second half of Xia Fan's sentence.

Because it was so shocking that she didn't dare to say it without any certainty.

And Xia Fan's original words were that the special train could not only reach the middle of the skylight, but the skylight itself also had the ability to turn night into day!

What does this mean?

Small evil spirits will be unable to move! Even big demons and ghosts will have nowhere to hide under the light, and will be more likely to be discovered and concentrated by the Salvation Church!

It can be said that Xia Fan's words hit the heart of the Salvation Church!

She didn't dare to say in advance that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

Even if this man has ten thousand faults, he saved Li Yi's life under the rule of the Privy Council and protected her back to the right path. Li Mengyun still remembered this little bit in her heart. Regardless of whether the cooperation can be successful, she must send the delegation from Jinxia back intact.

"It's not a matter of grasp, but a matter of luck." Xia Fan's expression was extremely relaxed, as if he didn't take this heavy news to heart at all. "As for your question about whether the patio can be as bright as day at night, I can only say that it must have been like this before."

Isn't this nonsense?

A living area that can accommodate tens of millions of people does not even have basic lighting. Without the evil spirits to eliminate them, the residents themselves will riot.

Moreover, after entering the patio, he carefully checked the residence and came to a positive conclusion.

This is indeed an underground city full of modern designs.

It even subverted his imagination in several places.

For example, the building materials.

The rooms here are all made of stone, and no splicing or bonding technology is used. It is just like a space drilled out of a complete rock. This means that even after a long time, the room has not been unusable due to water seepage, wall paint curling, metal rust, wood decay and other problems. Just replace the new mattress and blanket from the warehouse and take care of it a little before you can move in.

If it were just that, it would be fine.

The problem is that there are hundreds of floors in the skylight, countless rooms, and natural rocks have cracks and faults. How could it just give the pioneers a perfect carving area?

It can only be said that there is a stronger technical force here.

In addition, there are also closed pipelines and lamps inside the room, but they are all hidden under the decoration, and the switches are basically ineffective. If not all the lighting is out of order, then there must be a problem with the energy supply.

This is not Xia Fan's random speculation.

Because the track model of the special train shows that there is indeed a huge energy area at the bottom of the skylight. Secondly, the entire function of the skylight has not been completely stopped. The special train is still running and the quick food is still being distributed. This is evidence.

In addition, there is the white mist rising slowly in front of us...

There is no doubt that it does not come from the scorching core of the earth - the outer wall of the skylight must be a solid and dense whole to withstand the high pressure and high temperature from the core of the star. If there is a breach below, the entire outer wall will collapse. It is more like the self-heating of the skylight when it maintains the lowest energy consumption operation, and when executing some energy-intensive instructions, the heat dissipation will be more intense, which is a disguised confirmation of the Salvation Church's statement.

"...What are you going to do?" After a moment of silence, the Shengtian Venerable spoke again, "Will there be any danger?"

Xia Fan looked at her with a little surprise.

This was the first time that the other party expressed concern for his personal safety.

"I want to go to the control room first."

"Control room?"

"Well, from the diagram, it is about the 100th floor, close to the first gate." Xia Fan pondered, "As for what mechanism is inside, whether it can restore the light of the skylight, these are all unknown. As for the danger, I think it is evil."

To be honest, he has a great interest in the operation of the skylight.

After all, Luo Qingqing said that the special train is driven by air. In other words, the skylight itself has mechanisms and facilities for converting air. Let alone understanding its principles in a short time, even using the energy it outputs with experience can bring unimaginable changes to the outside world!

Think about it, if these energies can be led to Jinxia City, what kind of changes will the Machinery Bureau usher in?

As for opening the road to the 400th floor and letting the skylight shine again, these are just accessories.

Of course, although the 100th floor is deep, even the Salvation Church has not reached it, but they are not far from this goal. They must have accumulated a lot of experience in the past. With the support of shock lights and air rifles this time, Xia Fan is quite confident of reaching his destination.
