Chapter 739: Escape
Xia Fan used the same trick to open the door and rushed into the control room.
This room was bigger than he had imagined. It was divided into two floors, and there was a huge screen on the wall, which looked like a movie theater. He could imagine that many people had gathered here in the past to control the facilities in the patio.
"Is this the place you are looking for?" Li Mengyun asked.
As soon as she finished speaking, another vibrating lamp went out with a snap, and the illumination range was shortened again.
The crowd only had the last lamp left.
"I guess so, but the situation is a little different from what I expected." Xia Fan smiled bitterly. He wanted to find the control center of the patio, and then spend a lot of time studying it, trying to restore the patio to its normal state. But now, before he landed, the evil tide suddenly broke out. He finally found the entrance to the emergency passage, but was targeted by an unprecedented evil. There is no doubt that the enemy will not give him too much time. Once the other party arrives here, the control room will not escape the fate of melting.
It was the first time he had seen an evil spirit that could cause large-scale damage to the area - perhaps this was the Ravana mentioned by the Lord Hun Tian.
However, he had no choice.
It was not clear what was happening on the upper floor. It was almost impossible to lure the evil spirit away from the control room and then find a chance to escape. Moreover, even if he succeeded, he didn't know when he would reach the 100th floor next time.
So he decided to give it a try first.
Xia Fan didn't even close the door, just to make it easier for everyone to escape. He asked Luo Qingqing and others to guard the door and keep an eye on the movements of the evil spirit behind him, and he quickly went up to the second floor.
After all, from a design perspective, the main control position always likes to be placed high.
Fortunately, he did see a unique seat in the center of the second floor.
Compared with the hard seats below, this set of seats is much wider and can almost completely wrap a person. There is no control console or operating mechanism around it, but for Xia Fan, who has seen consciousness control on the special train, this situation will not bother him.
He sat on it without hesitation.
Only this time, the chair did not rise again, but sank directly into the first layer.
Xia Fan felt that his eyes were dark, and he was surrounded by dense talismans.
With the help of the faint light flowing on the talismans, he saw countless thin and long sheets arranged in rows, like a compact giant computer, but this instrument did not use 01 code, but runes composed of various lines! This also confirmed him again that the Denglong Tower was the masterpiece of the pioneers, and they were able to integrate Qi into modern technology.
Soon, the black curtain covering everything appeared again, and at the same time, a familiar electronic sound sounded.
"Welcome to the escape tower main control system. Since the authorization of all operators has expired, this system will open some permissions to any legal life form. If you want to further obtain the bottom-level control, please contact the escape committee, or choose to become a fusion life form."
Hearing this, Xia Fan breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he still didn't understand what the definition of "legal life form" was, as long as the control system responded, his trip would not be in vain.
This is the advantage of consciousness control. Even an inexperienced novice can issue some basic instructions with the assistance of artificial intelligence.
However, Xia Fan was quite concerned about the fusion of life forms at the end. From the literal meaning, the changes of the Savior and others are very suitable for this description - accepting the transformation of the skylight, embedding the black door energy into their bodies, and thus obtaining the right to use some facilities. But the fact is that the Shengtian Venerable couldn't even open the door of the lower emergency passage, let alone gain control of the control room. Obviously, these changes that happened to them did not meet the conditions in the eyes of the skylight system.
So what is considered a fusion life form? Does any legal life form have the opportunity to become a fusion life form? What is the price of fusion?
A series of questions emerged in Xia Fan's mind.
But before he had time to ask, a series of scarlet alarms suddenly appeared in front of him!
"Warning, a chaotic entity is detected invading the core area of the escape tower."
"Warning, the entity threat level is level three, which is a serious threat."
"Warning, the escape tower is about to take forced removal measures to eliminate the invading entity."
"Warning, the removal procedure is starting, and it is expected to take fifteen minutes. All shelter cabins will be closed in ten minutes. Please issue an evacuation notice immediately."
The endless warnings made Xia Fan dazzled for a while, but this was just an illusion caused by the visual impact. Under the consciousness control system, all information will be directly poured into the brain, and there is no need to really use the eyes to see. Xia Fan was stunned for only a few seconds, and soon understood the current situation.
The escape tower can not only identify evil spirits, but also has a self-defense system. Once it is activated, the entire patio will become a reactor filled with high-voltage current and strong rays! From the information he learned, this system goes deep into every corner of the patio, and the energy level is as high as a major earthquake. In the face of such violent energy, all evil spirits could not remain intact, but it would also turn the residential area of the courtyard into a forbidden place for life - any living creature would be turned into ashes in the storm of electricity and radiation, and not even a corpse would be left!
He originally thought that the control room would be destroyed by Ravana, but in fact he was overthinking.
For hundreds of years, this core system has been protecting the safety of the skylight. As long as it is still functioning, the evil spirits cannot really destroy the skylight.
Perhaps it is for this reason that the demons mentioned by the Venerable have chosen to lie dormant at the bottom of the well for too long.
But this is by no means something to be happy about.
Because the Jinxia Envoy is also in the skylight.
And no matter how you calculate it, fifteen minutes will not allow everyone to escape from danger.
"Stop the clearing program immediately!" Xia Fan shouted at the red warning box in front of him.
"The order is rejected. The complete existence of the escape tower is the first priority, and the chaotic entity must be excluded." The electronic voice replied without emotion.
"I am a legal life form, you should obey my instructions!"
"The order is rejected. Once again, according to Article 6 of the regulations formulated by the Escape Committee, the complete existence of the escape tower is the first priority. You can choose to take refuge immediately, and I will send you to the 96th cabin. The refuge time is expected to be seventeen days."
Seventeen days?
Does this include the cooling and recovery time after the big purge?
He now understands why the skylight is built with stone.
"I need to bring other people with me!" Xia Fan had to settle for the next best thing - he didn't need to specify who these people were, as long as he looked at the figures of Li and others on the monitor, the system would naturally know what he meant.
However, to his great surprise, this request was also rejected.
"It cannot be achieved. Only legal life forms can enter the refuge cabin. According to the detection, the number of legal life forms in the escape tower is currently one." The system replied coldly.
