Chapter 750: The New Pope

"Then what do you think we can do to avoid disaster?" Li Mengyun asked seriously.

"To be honest, I don't know much about it either. Even what the disaster itself is, I don't have an accurate answer yet." Xia Fan replied calmly. The so-called catastrophe is actually a picture that the listener "sees". For those who failed to escape from the earth and moon, they did experience a catastrophe, but such things obviously do not have recurring cycles. .

The only thing that can be linked to disaster at the moment is probably the barrier that hangs over the world.

Once it is damaged, the atmosphere will be pulled away, and even if the evil spirit does not take action, all living creatures will die of suffocation and freezing.

Thinking of this, Xia Fan asked Sikong, "How much do you know about the entire Earth-Moon base?"

"I am the escape tower control system, not the base control system. What you asked is beyond my ability." The other party's answer actually had a hint of ridicule, "Even the engineering design in the ancient times will not take everything into consideration." All the eggs are put into one basket.”

Xia Fan rolled his eyes silently, "Then where will the core facilities for controlling the base be?"

"There is no relevant record in the database." The other party paused, "But I think such a place should be set up in a fairly stable and reliable place. Maybe underground, maybe in the inaccessible back side of the moon. But even if you find it, you probably won't be able to find it. There is no access rights. After all, it is different from me. I am a service system and it is a closed autonomous system."

Sounds reasonable.

Just like a person can control his hands and feet independently, but he cannot stop his heart from beating.

In order to ensure the normal operation of the internal environment, the base system will definitely try to minimize the interference of external commands. It may not even have a communication bridge like Sikong.

Xia Fan thought of another question, "By the way, what is the Gate of Heaven? Is this also related to the Forerunners?"

However, the other party expressed that he had no idea, "The Gate of Heaven? I only found two related records in the entertainment library, one is an outdated novel and one is a D-level movie. Do you need to check it?"

I don’t know anything about the escape tower... Did I use the wrong keywords, or is it completely fabricated by later generations?

"Then have you heard of Climbing the Dragon Tower?"

"Of course not, I'm not Fantasy Encyclopedia."

Xia Fan was thoughtful. He had always been concerned about why climbing the Dragon Tower would convey information to him that had never been shown to the Dragonborn before. After learning about the difference between legal life forms and artificial life forms, he thought it was due to his special identity, but Si Kong's answer showed that the two did not belong to the same system.

In other words, are there other reasons hidden here?

Since he couldn't get the answer for the moment, Xia Fan did not continue to delve deeper. He looked at the representative of the Salvation Cult, "In short, the threat of King Yong should not be ignored, but the Salvation Cult does not need to regard prophecy as the only goal of action. Exploit Escape The tower is of great significance, and so is the world. On the premise of protecting the world, if you are willing to accept changes, I can take up this position. "

He said the last words through the escape tower's broadcast, and almost everyone in the courtyard heard his terms.

This is not only a display of ability, but also a restriction on the upper echelons of the Salvation Church.

Venerable Tongtian and Venerable Qitian looked at each other for a moment, and finally looked at Li Mengyun and nodded slowly.

"From today on, you will be the new pope of the Salvation Sect." Venerable Qitian stood up first, cupped his hands towards Xia Fan and said, "We are willing to serve you."

The other two people also saluted one after another.

"It doesn't have to be like this. The Salvation Sect can still get along with each other as brothers from all over the world according to their previous habits." The latter waved his hand, "Jinxia's assistance will soon enter Baiyao Mountain. The Salvation Sect's primary purpose is to protect the Tianjing area. , eliminate all evil spirits that invade the well."

He already knows why these evil spirits have been entrenched in the tower for a long time.

Except for a small number of legal life forms, most of the people living in the escape tower at that time were artificial humans used to maintain the operation of the facility. Although these people look like ordinary people, they are not qualified to board the ship and leave. When the well closed the passage and entered the lowest consumption operating state, most of the artificial life forms died here, turning the lower area into a place filled with evil spirits.

According to Sikong's records, the number is as high as tens of millions.

Until now, the entire passage is still blocked by dozens of gates several hundred meters thick, and due to lack of maintenance, it has been disconnected from the central system, and even Sikong cannot know the situation there.

"Secondly, suspend the current recruitment operation of the Salvation Sect and let the Venerables who are performing tasks outside enter a dormant state." Xia Fan stretched out two fingers and said.

"Aren't we going to continue to expand our momentum?" Venerable Qitian asked somewhat uncomprehensively.

"If Jin Xia can get the news about the Salvation Cult's unusual movements, the Seven Star Privy Council and Yong Wang will be able to do it as well. The longer the delay, the easier it will be to infiltrate." Xia Fan explained, "Pingtian Venerable Yao Wu is the best Example - The Ring of Dui Shu can only prevent evil spirits from being infected, but it cannot judge the changes in people's hearts. If someone wants to be a traitor, or there is a seven-star alchemist in the team, it will be difficult for us to distinguish them."

The other party did not refute.

Because this is a fact that everyone can foresee.

"What's more, the Tianjing area is very different from the past. Before, you could only say that you lived here temporarily, but now that I have gained control of the escape tower, the value of the intelligence obtained will be greatly increased. Any leakage of secrets may be harmful to me. Xia Fanzhi pointed out the key point, "So not only the personnel outside must stop their activities, but the original troops stationed in Tianjing also need to make adjustments. In addition to the old group of soldiers, the newly arrived refugees should move to Jinxia City. to reduce the risk of leaks.”

This is equivalent to weakening the effectiveness of the Salvation Sect, and it was absolutely unacceptable conditions before. But now Xia Fan is the leader of a religion, and his control over the patio is far better than the last listener. After weighing the pros and cons, this condition has become less harsh.

"But there are hundreds of thousands of refugees here. Can Jinxia City afford it?" Lord Tongtian asked slightly worriedly.

"If you just pull it all over in one go, it will indeed bring a lot of pressure, but I will build a special channel connecting Jinxia and Baiyao Mountain to transfer the convenient food and clothes produced by the escape tower to ensure that no one will be affected. Hungry and cold. As for housing, Jinxia has no problem in this regard.”

Xia Fan paused and raised his third finger. "Last point, even the Venerable must go to Jinxia City for training and learn various professional knowledge, so that he can better utilize the facilities left by the forerunners."

…

Three days later, a special train stopped at the fourth-floor platform.

Mo Yun set foot on the land of Tianjing District for the first time.
