"Why should I tell you??"
Charles' heart skipped a beat when he heard this. "So, you know?"
"you guess?"
Charles, somewhat excited, asked the AI in the air again: "Tell me, what do you want?"
"I don't have any requests. After all, I'm not a human being. I don't have your various needs. How about you tell me your origins? I'm very curious about your origins. You don't seem to be from below."
After thinking for a moment, Charles told it everything about his journey from the surface to the Earthsea. There was no need to hide anything about this matter.
"So that's how it is. No wonder you give me the feeling that you are different from those believers."
"Can you tell me now where the surface exit is?" Charles asked again.
"I'm sorry, I still can't tell you."
A nameless anger surged in Charles' heart, and he felt that he had been fooled by this guy.
Charles was too lazy to talk to this guy, so he turned his head and looked at the tall buildings around him. "You don't have to tell me, there must be other clues in New Territories City. I will definitely find them if I look carefully."
The information of an entire city is laid out before him. It may take some effort to find it, but there are definitely clues.
"If you move again, I will double the speed of the nuclear fusion reaction. How many seconds can a human withstand a body temperature of 91 degrees?"
Hearing Dawn No. 1's threatening words, Charles froze in place, and the stuffy atmosphere instantly solidified.
"Is the sun in your world big? Is it as big as mine?" Dawn No. 1 on the phone was still asking.
After Charles thought quickly, the worry in his heart finally settled down.
"You're lying to me, aren't you? If you could really raise the temperature to kill people at will, the Foundation would never hang you over New Territories City."
Charles finished speaking and walked towards the city next to him.
One step, two steps, three steps, just as he expected, the temperature around him was still over 40 degrees. Although it was hot, it was still bearable. This guy was just bluffing.
In modern society, the safety level of nuclear reactors is always the highest. Since the Foundation was able to create it, there must be some kind of countermeasures.
"Smart, those people have restricted me, and what I can do is very limited, but it's not that easy for you to find clues on the surface."
"Beep—" Charles simply hung up the phone.
In the high temperature, Charles quickly searched between cities. This was a modern city, but it was somewhat different from the cities on the surface. There were some unique facilities on the edge of the city.
One of the huge circular buildings first caught his attention. He had seen this thing on Tianshui Island before. It was a nuclear fusion reactor.
But compared to the group on Tianshui Island, this one is bigger and wider. Looking at the ring without a top and comparing it with the Dawn-1 in the sky, he immediately understood that this thing should be used to carry it.
(Dawn Project Main Laboratory) Looking at the sign hanging on the wall, Charles kicked open the rusty fence and prepared to walk in.
But just as he was about to rush into the completely shattered glass, Charles suddenly had an idea, "Wait, I've seen that thing somewhere."
Charles stepped back quickly, groping over the words "Aurora Project".
The first line of the previous 1002 document instantly appeared in his mind. Experiment Name: Activity (Dawn Experiment Sub-Plan 1/3)
Charles suddenly looked up at the light source in the sky. He had been wondering how this thing could have intelligence.
This thing, like 1002, was activated by Project 074, but the struggling 1002 on the island was a failure of the initial test, while Dawn 1 was the final result of the experiment.
"I didn't expect those guys to actually do it. Is this the endless energy they talked about?"
After Charles figured out the problem, he turned and walked towards the laboratory.
Although it answered a question in my mind, this information was not of much use. If I wanted to go back, I had to find a chart leading to the surface, or a way to control Dawn-1.
Just like a nuclear power plant is controlled by someone, there must be some way to control the Dawn-1. Since that thing is alive, there must be a way to threaten it.
Charles rushed into the Dawn Laboratory and searched room by room. His expression gradually became ugly.
Anything that recorded information in the room was taken away, including the hard drives in some broken computers, even those computers were so rotten that they were completely unusable.
By simply comparing the dust on the gap of the hard drive, Charles judged that these things were taken away in recent years.
Who would sort out the Foundation's stuff? This is obviously abnormal. If it was just this file, it would be fine, but even the hard drive was taken away.
That means the people who took the things must have some knowledge of computers.
Thinking back to what Bandage had told him before about the God of Light's attitude toward New Territories City, Charles knew that they were the only ones who had the ability to do this now.
In front of the Church of the Holy Light of Hope, Huon watched Charles walk down from the warship with a smile on his face.
"Governor Charles, has the Almighty God of Light solved your puzzle?"
Charles looked at him calmly, "I need to see your Pope."
Soon he saw a huge statue of the Pope in a confessional in a church.
"Oh, my child, long time no see. What have you been through in the past three years? You seem to have changed a lot."
Charles made it clear, "You sent people to take away all the files and hard drives in New Territories City, right?"
"Yes, I did it." The Pope admitted frankly.
Charles stepped forward, "Why do you do that?"
As the statue of the Pope made a prayer gesture, a wisp of dust fell from him. "The omniscient and omnipotent God of Light. He gave me an oracle that those things contain a great threat. If they are released, there will be no recovery."
"You can't fool me. Dawn-1 is just a huge power station. It's not your God of Light at all!"
Seeing Charles speak directly, the smile on the Pope's face disappeared. "Governor Charles, I hope you can understand one thing. I never lie. The one above is not the God of Light, but the God of Light does exist."
"I don't care what the hell you and that guy are doing. I don't care about your beliefs. I just want to know where the surface is." Charles stared at him.
Thank you Chen Mengyi for the reward of 10,000 Qidian coins, thank you!
