Star Dome: The opening made Black Tower regret for life

The door of the cable car slowly opened, and there was a bang like some kind of lock that separated the world from being unlocked, and a cable car separated the two worlds.

If the world were described as an ocean, the ocean in the upper area would be soothing and slow, and the blue sea and sky would be like a paradise.

The lower area is the ferocious side of the sea, with dense clouds, howling winds, and waves that rise and fall like mountains. The sun never sees the sun and is full of depressive atmosphere. But those children are like the sprouts of new life, turning this crumbling death The city adds vitality.

Jiang Fan took Yue Qi, Dan Heng and the others to Panyan Town. After a few detours, the scenery ahead suddenly became clear.

The streets in the town are no different from those in the upper-class areas. The only difference is that the place looks lifeless. Almost all the shop doors are sealed, with various old advertisements posted on them. The faint yellow lights occasionally flash. It flashed like Silent Hill in the movie.

At this time, the administrative square in the upper district must be deserted, but on the streets of Panyan Town you can still see miners wearing hard hats walking through the streets and alleys, and you can also meet them on the roadside. The resting miners sat around bragging and drinking, and the whole city enveloped them in an overwhelming chill.

Although March 7 and Dan Heng walked around the entire Belloberg in the upper area and knew about the disasters facing the city, they never thought that the lower area would be such a lifeless scene. They looked at everything Everything felt like my heart sank, and my steps became heavier.

They should be used to it. This is the disaster caused by the star core. Almost all planets that have been ravaged by the star core disaster are like this, full of despair and unwillingness, but they still get emotional for this place that can never see the sky. The town feels sad.

Jiang Fan led them through the small streets, as if he was familiar with the entire Panyan Town. They followed Jiang Fan. Although they didn't know where the way forward was, they always followed the leader. Incorrect.

"It's so cold here... It feels like...well, two worlds from the upper area." March 7's slender fingers gently brushed the wall of the alley. There was a thin layer of dust on the wall, and the tentacles were cold. There was no warmth at all.

It is almost airtight here and is far less warm than the upper area. There is a slight chill in every corner that makes people shiver. There are no smiles or any emotions on the faces of passers-by. , as if... just like Dan Heng, with an expressionless face.

If the dim yellow light hadn't cast their shadows on the floor tiles, she would have even felt like she had entered a ghost town in a ghost story.

"Well, although there are marrow veins in the lower area, most of the marrow will be exchanged for supplies, and only a few of the marrow will be left. Moreover, there are very few marrow heaters in the lower area, and most of them are scrapped due to disrepair. Lost it." Jiang Fan said softly, looking carefully at everyone in his sight.

"Is there a shortage of earth marrow heaters in the upper area? We don't even have the ability to provide heaters for the lower area?" Dan Heng asked with a rare frown.

"The earth marrow is the blood of Belloberg, and it is what enables the entire city to stand firm in the wind and snow. In recent years, the invasion of world-splitting creatures has become more serious, and there are no factories that can produce earth marrow heaters." Jiang Fan said softly, "Even if the geomarrow heater in the upper area breaks down, we have to rely on the engineers from the City Builder Technical Department to repair it. Where can we have the time and energy to repair the marrow heater in the lower area?"

There is one more thing Jiang Fan didn't tell Dan Heng and the others, so what if those engineers had the time and energy? Those nobles would rather let the engineers sit and chat in the technical department than go to the lower area to repair the heater.

The nobles knew clearly that there were still people in the lower areas who would starve to death every day, but they would rather eat a chicken drumstick and throw away a chicken drumstick than give up the excess food to the residents of the lower areas. They even said in a high-sounding way, "If The residents of the lower-class areas are living a good life, but who will bear the burden for Beloberg to move forward?”

These nobles were all honest when Jiang Fan took over as the Great Guardian. Even if Jiang Fan decided to launch an aid plan for the lower-class areas, they would do it honestly and only dared to make some trivial actions.

Because they knew that this young great guardian crawled out of the dead. He was born in the army and was a monarch with a tough hand. There was absolutely no good fruit to be gained by annoying this monarch. Moreover, he was born in the Landau family. It can be said that he directly controls nearly 80% of Beloberg's army.

Jiang Fan suddenly felt a little emotional, and there was a burst of sadness in his heart. He didn't know how Cocolia got to where it is today, and he couldn't imagine how Cocolia ordered the lower-level areas to be destroyed under the pressure of those nobles. to provide assistance.

The more he knew about Panyanzhen, the heavier his heart became. Is Panyanzhen cold now?

No, in his mind, Panyan Town now is much warmer than before. In the past, Panyan Town was a place where you would feel cold even if you leaned next to the heater. The permeating cold wave was overwhelming and there was nowhere to escape.

Nowadays, there are countless geothermal heaters on the streets of Panyan Town. Even some heaters that look rusty have been repaired and continue to emit light to drive away the cold.

Jiang Fan once asked Oleg, the veteran commander of the Iron Guard in the Lower District, why these buildings still had lights on even though no one was inhabiting them. Is it because he wanted to rely on the warmth emitted by the lights to drive away the cold?

At that time, Oleg just laughed and shook his head. While pouring wine into his mouth, he patted his shoulder and said words that he has never let go of for a long time.

"Did you know? What people fear most is not death, but the feeling of loneliness. When you stare at the entire dark city, will you be overwhelmed by the deathly silence?"

"Perhaps we are too greedy and want to leave traces of everyone's life in this world, so when they are about to be overwhelmed by despair, I hope they can see that Panyan Town is still full of lights."

"Everyone has to remember something in his heart so that he can have the idea of ​​living."

"I also hope that when children look up they see light like stars instead of dead darkness..."

"Jiang Fan, I am old. We guys are old, but they are still young. They are like new shoots that have just broken through the ground. Promise me that they can see the blue sky when they look up, okay?"

"This is my, Oleg, only wish. Children are the hope of the future... But aren't the children in the lower districts children?"
