Chapter 13: Lighting Up
The White Mist World was quickly cleared, and there were no living creatures on this level except for the flesh and bones.
The battle team soon gathered around the core hub again, and they were to continue their advance to the upper level, the dark world.
The dark world is still the same, the light can't penetrate the vast darkness at all, and the dark element is still entrenched here, absorbing every ray of light.
"Since the ice elemental creatures can be completely destroyed, it stands to reason that the dark elemental is no different." Lias beckoned to the team, using high-energy radiation and lasers to shoot indiscriminately into the dark depths.
However, even a laser can't penetrate the darkness in front of you, and no matter how strong the light is, it can only reach a distance of 12 meters, which seems to be the absolute rule of the dark world.
……
In the second area of the third ark, Susie is still sorting out the materials inside the ark.
"Didi" her communicator rang, and the message was from Lias, the leader of the combat team in the rescue pod.
"Susie, how are the dark elements you caught last time?" Lias belongs to the grinding gun, not fast and light.
Susie replied, "It's been a long time ago, and I've discovered that those dark elements are not absorbing light, but fearing it. ”
Lias asked, "Are they afraid of the light?" So why does light only travel twelve meters in the dark? Isn't this absorbed by them? ”
Susie replied, "Oh, I was wrong, they are not afraid of the light, but of the light source. ”
"Does it make a difference?" Lias was a little confused.
Susie said, "It doesn't really make a difference under normal circumstances, but the dark elements seem to be able to tell how far the light travels. ”
"When there is a light source, they move away from the light source, exactly 12 meters away."
"And if you isolate them from the light source in an enclosed space, then there will be a vacuum area, a vacuum area where neither the light nor the dark element is present."
Lias said that his brain couldn't keep up at all: "Susie, don't talk to me about the principle. ”
"Now that we have advanced to the dark layer, if these dark elements cannot be dispelled, this layer cannot be cleared at all, is there anything you can do on that side?"
Susie replied, "If you want to solve the problems of the dark world, you must not use force like you. ”
"My suggestion is to illuminate the whole dark world, and the dark elements will naturally disappear from nowhere."
Lias reacted quickly: "Do you think that a light will be lit every twelve meters to directly illuminate the entire dark layer?" ”
Susie shrugged: "Why not?" We don't have a shortage of resources right now, and if you clear the roads, I can immediately send in a few space engineering vehicles to help you install light bulbs. ”
After the communication, Lias told Daniel, "Let's camp in place, Susie said that she wants to light up this floor, and is planning to send a space engineering vehicle to install light bulbs." ”
Daniel was a little incredulous: "Ann light bulb? Light up this entire floor? Do you know how tall this floor is? ”
Lias replied, "Susie said it would work, so let's try it." ”
"Anyway, we were given the task of completely cleaning every floor of the rescue capsule."
"No matter how much time, energy and materials are spent, this task must be completely completed."
……
The clean-up work in the ark is still progressing steadily, and the construction of the "bay" base has not been left behind.
The railway lines from the "bay" base to all parts of the mainland have been almost completed, and in particular, the mines in the various mining areas are constantly being sent to the "bay" base every day and night.
The second and third aeroports are under construction, and the first is working overtime on the first Hound-class destroyer.
The resources consumed by a real space warship are indeed astronomical, and even if the entire base is gathered to assist this project, the progress of building a ship is still very slow.
On the other hand, more and more Hobrands immigrants are coming to the Bay base, and it is still the kindness of the people who have prepared free shelter and food for these immigrants.
However, if they want to enter the "third-party boat", they still have to pass one assessment after another.
Refugees are not accepted in the third party boat, and everyone must prove that they are eligible to enter the third party boat.
In the metropolis of the Ark, the immigrants of the rescue pod have priority, and they are also considered to be fellow villagers of the "Journey to the Underworld", and they are more adapted to the underground life.
There are now nearly 100,000 migrants in the metropolis, most of whom are still studying and training, and not many have actually mastered survival skills.
However, the metropolis is still very lively, and although everyone is not rich in supplies, communication with each other is still common.
Merchants have the meaning of their existence no matter what time or region they are.
Just like now, the business districts of the metropolis have been established, and they are still bustling with people.
"Mr. Tang, there are linen pillows sold here, didn't you say that artificial latex pillows are not used to sleeping? Why don't you buy a linen pillow and try it? ”
Today is a day off, and White Tang rarely has time to go out for a walk, and Cha Mo is like a little heel, and he is always inseparable.
The two came to the commercial area of the metropolis, and looking at the dazzling array of goods, White Tang was also a little surprised: "Didn't you say that the first batch of immigrants came from the rescue cabin?" I don't think they look like refugees from the underworld at all. ”
Cha Mo smiled: "How can the first batch of immigrants be refugees?" They were the first to get the news and the fastest to run. ”
"The real refugees are still grinding on the road, listening to Lias, they all have given an ultimatum, and there are some old stubborns who say they don't want to leave their homes."
"These first immigrants basically have families, we provide free accommodation and free food, and the materials they have saved, well, don't they come to open shops."
White Tang nodded: "That's right, people with this kind of mind can't live a miserable life." ”
As he spoke, he suddenly asked, "By the way, hasn't Ovo been following you all the time?" Why didn't you see her here today? ”
Chamo shrugged: "Ovo and Elena are very close now, and I'm a little worried about whether she will be taken away. ”
"I heard that the two of them have also moved to the metropolis now, and they don't know what they do every day, and they often don't see people."
White Tang frowned, this is not good news.
Ovo and Elena, one is a black dragon and the other is a demon fallen.
Although the armed forces of the "Journey to the Underworld" are very strong now, when it comes to fighting alone, even the tea powder is not necessarily their opponent.
Such two powerful individuals cannot be let out of their control.
