The fall of Midnight City has left the light of humanity extremely dim.
As the Vina Refuge Zone hid underground and struggled to survive, only a place of light that was not worthy of the name was left to support humanity's remaining sense of existence.
In the evening, Lu Li woke up from deep in the whirlpool of thoughts.
Outside the window, a dim veil originating from the depths of the clouds falls down into the sky of the land of light.
At dusk, it is also the time when the silent Agate Lake camp wakes up.
Lu Li sat up from the soft pleated bed, put on his shoes and socks, took off the windbreaker from the hanger and put it on his shoulders, and opened the patio door.
A slightly cool air rushes towards your face, but unlike the air in Vina Freeport, Midnight City, the old sewers and all, there is no lingering, ghostly silence in the Land of Light. The sun shines on the surface of everything and evaporates.
The breath formed can make people connect all the beautiful things together, just like the comfort of the afternoon.
Because the importance of sunlight flows deep in everyone's blood.
The residents who had woken up long ago gathered in the camp square in the distance, probably waiting to enjoy "breakfast".
Nothing could be seen on the terrace far away from the hustle and bustle. Lu Li was about to leave the manor and patrol his territory as the twisted figure said.
Nodding to the twisted believers guarding the outside of the corridor, he left the manor and walked towards the gathering place.
Breakfast in the Land of Light consists of wheat paste and strange meat. The former is more precious than the latter because it is a bowl and unlimited.
The oldest group of residents, Porter, Gale, and Mitra, who are also friends with each other for many years, described the taste as something like "oatmeal", while those residents under the age of thirty had no idea what oatmeal was.
What.
There are obvious differences in the body shapes of these residents. Those with well-proportioned figures, muscular outlines, and slightly darker skin colors are the first and second batches of people who came to the Land of Light. The third batch and the fourth batch that arrived more than ten days ago
Residents can clearly see the thinness and paleness caused by long-term malnutrition and lack of sunlight.
The believers of the Church of Twisted and Vine also eat in the square, but they are separated from the human residents due to different recipes. Unlike the second-level clean food of the Terminus Association standard for human residents, the food of the believers is rich in "pollution" that is beneficial to them.
", but it is like poison to humans.
Moreover, regardless of the true appearance or whispers of the believers, the fragile human sanity will be reduced and polluted. Unless they want to join the Church of Twisted and Vine, it is better to keep a distance.
In addition to three meals a day, masses and occasional activities are held in this square. The twisted figure who took care of the territory for Lu Li originally wanted to build an auditorium, but she found that the residents did not like this: whenever they gathered too much in the closed
When traveling in space, people feel anxious and uneasy. This is completely opposite to the wooden wall that surrounds the Agate Lake camp, known as the "Kodak Wall".
Lu Li did not approach, only looking at the square from a distance. Before the residents regained their "humanity", it was best for him not to get close to them.
Because late last night, when Lu Li appeared in the Land of Light, many people knelt on the ground like slaves, wanting to lick his shoes.
It even made Lu Li feel horrified. It was definitely not what a human being should look like.
As Matthäus said, the human backbone has been broken.
Lu Li walked towards the ugly shack where they lived, which was more like a pigsty than the single-family two-story mansion on the shore of Agate Lake. The twisted figure said that the residents were also unwilling to live there. The complex structure and cramped corridors made them fearful, and every building
The mansions are too far apart, and only the shacks built by their own hands can give them peace of mind.
These shacks are adjacent to each other, like densely built slums, but under the management of twisted figures, there is no cross-flow of sewage. In addition to being ugly, these shacks are also different from other shacks. They have no chimneys and are built in every direction.
Covered with glass. This prevents residents from being swallowed up by darkness and shivering from the cold.
After passing through the residents' shacks and proceeding along the downward slope for two to three hundred meters, Lu Li came to the wooden wall surrounding the Agate Lake camp.
This is the reason why there has been almost no construction in the Land of Light for three months. The Kodak Wall, the Immortal Wall of Farmland Garden.
It can be seen from the name that the residents have high hopes for it. Although it is only a simple wooden wall less than three meters high, thin and full of holes, it brings an unparalleled sense of security to the residents of the Land of Light.
Just like people always hide themselves under the quilt when they are afraid, a meaningless low wall that surrounds their home is a guarantee for them to sleep peacefully.
But it’s not meaningless. Because the Agate Lake camp is at the highest point of Sugard Mountain. Retreating to a height of 100 meters behind the Kodak Wall allows you to see beyond the wooden wall and see the scene outside the camp. Any weird things that come close will be
Discovered by followers of the Church of Twisted and Vine patrolling this distance. Unless the intruders come from the sky or underground, they will always jump over the wooden wall.
Follow the Kodak Wall back to the single-family mansion on the shore of Agate Lake. Tesla and his wife once lived in this complex of buildings, which are now deserted. Only the mansion near the middle of the camp is occupied by the Church of Twisted and Vine.
Two adjacent mansions were used as churches for the Twisted Vine Church, and sculptures were moved from the old camp.
The twisted figure is not in the church. It is now time for it to patrol the camp, and the Ever Dreamer is experiencing a new long sleep.
Lu Li approached the specially guarded warehouse where food and goods were stored.
The believers recognized Lu Li and allowed him to enter the stable-turned-warehouse.
The Land of Light is very generous with food, not only because workers who don't eat can't work at all, but also because they rely on a lord with unlimited wealth, Lu Li, to use the trade between Weiner Freeze Port and Midnight City and the old sewers to allow merchants to
The worthless contribution points in hand become a currency higher than the shilling and lower than the weird currency, but only for trade points.
When Lu Li was sorting through the three months of letters from Mateus that he received while staying in the Midnight City Illusion, he discovered that the quality of the goods sent from the old sewer to the Vina Freeze Port had gradually become poor, and the food was mixed with rotten meat, making it inedible.
The filth and cargo were mixed with damage and tatters, and even worse, weird things began to sneak into the Weiner refuge area along with the cargo.
Everything is gone because of Midnight City.
Perhaps it won't be too long before the human shilling will no longer be used as currency in the dark world.
Merchants' contribution points can live a little longer, because the speed of merchants transporting goods and the old sewers don't know much about the Land of Light. They don't know that the Land of Light is just a superficial product, and Lu Li can only huddle on the top of the mountain.
The delivered goods are still normal and are not gradually deteriorating like the Wiener Refuge Zone.
But sooner or later they will discover everything.
So the Land of Light is reclaiming farmland, so there are enough cans stored in the underground of Baron Joseph's manor to feed 500 residents for three years.

But these are just like hiding underground in the ice-free port of Wiener, burning clothes to delay the onset of darkness.
