Chapter 1471: Electricity Regress
Electricity Regress
Before Su Zhiwei could say anything, Wu Tongyuan's voice came again:
"Look, how about this?
Currently, the Spirit Void Domain has absorbed too many workers and can no longer accommodate more residents. Since the infrastructure of the Hidden Clouds Domain is relatively well-preserved, you should first send a portion of the residents to the Hidden Clouds Domain to relieve the pressure on the Tianshu Domain...
At the same time, my side will also transfer out as many living supplies as possible to support your Tianshu Domain. As for food, you can have Old Qi manipulate the weather phenomena to hurry up and grow another batch... As for medical care, isn't the Paper Kite Rescue Association currently in the Tianshu Domain? They should be able to be of use."
The signal light of the Hidden Clouds Domain flickered, seemingly hesitating to speak...
The signal light of the Tianshu Domain, however, remained silent.
Anyone could feel it,
Behind that silent signal light, Su Zhiwei was suppressing her anger...
"Although the Red Star was knocked off course by Old Lu, as long as we and those World-Ending Calamities are alive, it will return sooner or later... This time, we don't have a hibernation plan. The speed of its return will be unimaginable... Perhaps, in a year? In half a year? Even... in three months?" Wu Tongyuan's voice was equally full of extreme Rationality,
"If we can't find a way to completely destroy the Red Star before then, all of us will have to die."
This time, both the Tianshu Domain and the Hidden Clouds Domain fell into silence simultaneously.
"A way to destroy the Red Star..." The signal light of the Hidden Clouds Domain flickered slightly, "Does it really exist?"
"I don't know... but as long as it exists, it will definitely be stored in the Akashic Records. Hidden there are the past, present, and future... and all possibilities of everything in the universe." Wu Tongyuan's voice was incomparably firm.
After being silent for a long time, the signal light of the Tianshu Domain still lit up:
"One month... you only have one month."
"Rest assured, once the 'Akashic Tower' is built within a month, I will return the people to you."
The signal light of the Tianshu Domain completely went out.
After a brief silence,
Qi Muyun's voice sounded again:
"Dr. Su just has this kind of personality, and she thinks things through more thoroughly... It's not that she can't stand you, she just anticipated that perhaps some people might freeze to death or starve to death, and she just couldn't sit idly by."
"I know." Wu Tongyuan sighed softly.
"One month, can it be done?"
"It can, but..."
Wu Tongyuan didn't continue speaking.
"Anyway, if you need any help from me, just say so." Qi Muyun added a sentence.
"Thank you."
The signal light of the Hidden Clouds Domain also went out accordingly.
Inside the Lingxu Base, Wu Tongyuan took a deep breath, turned around, and walked out of the corridor.
One by one, bright lights passed over his head. Wu Tongyuan lowered his head, as if seriously pondering over something...
Click——
In the next moment, all the lights above his head suddenly went out.
Wu Tongyuan's eyes narrowed. He looked up at these lights... A faint light flickered in his pupils, as if checking something.
It wasn't an enemy invasion, it wasn't an equipment malfunction, nor did someone turn off the lights...
Was it out of power?
Wu Tongyuan had an ominous premonition in his heart. He immediately quickly walked out of the corridor, stood outside the door of the Lingxu Base, and looked down the mountain.
The Spirit Void Domain under the dusk had completely fallen into darkness. Whether it was the lights on the roads or in the buildings, all were shut down. Bursts of exclamations and puzzled curses came from the city.
A moment later, a figure hurriedly rushed behind him:
"Lord of Spirit Void..."
"What happened?"
"It's... it's the Power Plant..." After stammering for a long time, the staff member finally uttered the sentence that made Wu Tongyuan's heart go cold halfway, "All our steam power generation equipment... has completely failed."
Wu Tongyuan's brows furrowed tightly.
Civilization,
Had regressed once again.
After the Red Star crossed the sky for the second time, that power that caused civilization to regress surged once again... The failure of steam power generation meant that almost all large-scale power generation methods could no longer be used.
Humanity could no longer use "electricity".
"Then the radio wave devices..."
"Also failed." The staff member added.
Without electricity, the Human Domains were equivalent to having an arm cut off. Now even the most basic domain communication couldn't be used, which was practically piercing their ears directly...
Wu Tongyuan could feel that after the Red Star crossed for the second time, this world seemed to have started some kind of destruction countdown. As time passed, they would lose more and more, and the situation they faced would become increasingly severe.
Did humanity really still have hope?
Wu Tongyuan's gaze once again landed on that high tower under construction... His fists clenched tightly.
"Help me call all the newspaper media within the Spirit Void Domain over."
"Lord of Spirit Void, do you have something to announce?"
"Our time is running out, and the future of humanity is ethereal and uncertain. The more it is like this, the more we must assemble all the power that can be mobilized... I want them to help me spread a piece of news. I want to find a person... No, a group of people."
"Who?"
Wu Tongyuan's lips parted slightly, slowly spitting out three words:
"Dusk Society."
...
"Selling newspapers, selling newspapers!!"
"Huge news!! Huge news!!"
"The Lord of Spirit Void announces a public conference in the Spirit Void Domain next week! Inviting the Red King, Grey King, and all members of the Dusk Society to attend! To jointly discuss the future of humanity!!"
"Selling newspapers, selling newspapers..."
In this era where any remote communication couldn't be used, newspapers once again became humanity's most effective medium for information dissemination. Copies upon copies of newspapers were distributed in the Spirit Void Domain. As the domain trains started, these newspapers were also sent to the Tianshu and Hidden Clouds Domains, delivered into the hands of one person after another.
"Hello, how much is the newspaper?"
"One Copper Coin!"
As a Copper Coin flew through the air, a newspaper was simultaneously handed to an inconspicuous young girl.
She glanced at the headline page of the newspaper, and her expression visibly became wonderful. She immediately turned back, passing through one Alleyway after another, and finally arrived at the door of a hidden small house.
She looked around to ensure no one was there and knocked gently on the door.
Knock, knock, knock——
After a long while,
A figure wearing a medical White Coat Wearer pushed open the door.
"Why are you here?" When Chu Muyun saw the girl before him, his expression instantly became as ugly as if he had eaten a fly.
Without a second word, the girl directly pushed Chu Muyun back into the house. After locking the door, without waiting for Chu Muyun to ask more, she stuffed the newspaper in her hand into the other party's hands...
"See for yourself."
Chu Muyun suspiciously opened the newspaper. When he saw the first line of large words on it, his whole person stayed in place, as if struck by lightning.
"What the... hell is this??"
