Chapter 1474: Absolutely Impossible

Jiang Xiaohua shook his head, his eyes full of confusion.

Sun Bumian fell into deep thought.

"What? Square, do you know?" Jian Changsheng immediately leaned in.

"What could I know... Haven't the three of us been together all this time? I haven't seen him either." Sun Bumian took out the letter paper from his bosom again, looking at the four characters 【If you want to go, then go】, his expression hesitant.

"But I always feel... this style... is a bit familiar?"

"...familiar?"

"Do you think... I'm just saying this casually, do you think... this looks like something Heart could do?"

Jian Changsheng was stunned in place.

After a long while, he burst into laughter and slapped Sun Bumian hard on the shoulder.

"I say Square, have you lost your mind?

Heart?

Heart could suddenly become the Red King?

Don't forget that he, like us, is of the 6-generation, the least experienced in the entire Twilight Society... If he could be the Red King, why couldn't I?"

Sun Bumian raised an eyebrow and asked back, "Are you a disciple of the Red King? Can you solo-kill a Calamity of Thought? Do you have the money to give everyone a raise?"

Jian Changsheng's smile stiffened instantly.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Jian Changsheng tried to deny Sun Bumian's "naive" guess firmly,

but then muttered with a lack of confidence, "How could he become the Red King... If he became the Red King, then he would be our leader... Wouldn't we all be his underlings?"

"I was just saying it casually." Sun Bumian also felt his guess was a bit bold, waved his hand, and stopped discussing it.

While talking, the three had already arrived at the edge of the Lingxu Domain.

At this time, the sun had already set, and both the Gray Realm and the human domain were pitch black, with only sporadic lights dotting the interior of the domain...

After losing electricity, the human domain could no longer be brightly lit. Every household could only rely on relatively primitive lighting methods like kerosene lamps to get light. There were sporadic lanterns hanging on the streets, and the vast majority were hidden in the darkness.

Looking at the scene before him, Jian Changsheng couldn't help but think of those areas outside Aurora City. In that resource-scarce city in the far north, except for Aurora City, few families in other places could afford electricity, so every night, it was this scene...

"If we regress for another period of time, won't the human domain all turn into tribes like the Jiangtian Sect?" Jian Changsheng couldn't help but sigh.

"...Hard to say."

Sun Bumian carefully observed the border of the domain. Tall wire fences were standing in the darkness. This was a measure once used by the Lingxu Domain to prevent dangerous outsiders from entering the domain, and it could also block the calamities wandering in the Gray Realm to a certain extent.

"Fortunately, the wire fence isn't high." Jian Changsheng started to warm up on the spot.

Without waiting for Sun Bumian to say anything, Jian Changsheng gave an evil smile. The next second, he sprang up, sliding over the wire fence like a black dragon, drawing an elegant arc, and landing steadily on the ground...

After finishing this smooth series of movements, Jian Changsheng calmly flicked the dust off his pants.

He had just turned around to say something when, the next second, he was stunned in place.

Sun Bumian and Jiang Xiaohua had already passed through the wire fence at some point and were standing behind him as quietly as ghosts, looking at him with incredibly strange expressions...

"Not cool, guys, how did you get in? Without making a sound??" Jian Changsheng was incredulous.

"Oh, there's a door next to it."

Jiang Xiaohua pointed honestly behind him.

Jian Changsheng looked in that direction and saw that on the other side of the massive wire fence, there was indeed a door, and a very conspicuous sign was hanging on the door, which read:

【Twilight Society members, please use this door to enter】.

Jian Changsheng: ?????

The world has really changed.

"Let's go, enter the city," Sun Bumian patted Jian Changsheng on the shoulder. "The meeting starts tomorrow... I have a premonition that the new Red King will definitely appear."

Jian Changsheng took another look at the sign specifically left for Twilight Society members, feeling strange in his heart, but soon this strange feeling was diluted by his curiosity about the new Red King. After nodding, he walked straight into the Lingxu Domain.

The two walked a few steps and suddenly felt like something was missing, only to realize that Jiang Xiaohua hadn't followed.

They looked back and saw Jiang Xiaohua standing in place, looking up at the sky blankly...

"Plum, what's wrong?"

Jiang Xiaohua tilted his head and raised his hand, slowly pointing to the bright, clear moon in the sky that looked like a wheel close at hand:

"Today's moon..."

"Is so round."

……

Under the bright moonlight.

A figure in a brown coat slowly stopped.

In the open space ahead, a massive tower body, obscured by layers of scaffolding, stood under the moonlight. Although it was night, torches were lit everywhere in this open space, using the blazing firelight to illuminate the place as bright as day.

Countless workers were shuttling through it, sweating profusely. Some were responsible for command and dispatch, some for blueprint surveying, some for running around carrying bags of things that looked like bricks, and some for the logistics dispatch of the ten thousand people on this construction site...

Everyone here was like a screw in a factory, running non-stop even in the middle of the night without electric lights.

"Who are you?" A figure wearing a hard hat noticed the figure in the brown coat and asked with a frown.

"My name is Lin Yan, and I am a reporter."

The figure in the brown coat smiled slightly.

"Reporter? Which newspaper are you from? Didn't the government tell you that everything here is not open to interviews or reports? Go away, go away!" The worker urged him to leave impatiently.

"Not open to interviews or reports?" The figure in the brown coat raised an eyebrow.

The next second,

an invisible python clung to the man's body and took a bite.

"Did you get it wrong... Why don't I remember there being such a rule?" The smile at the corner of Chen Ling's mouth grew richer.

The worker stood stunned in place like a sculpture for a while, then scratched his head blankly, as if he had completely forgotten what he was thinking just now... He looked at Chen Ling carefully a few more times:

"You... you come with me."

"Thank you."

As the worker led Chen Ling deeper, he saw the full picture of the construction site.

This construction site was even larger than Chen Ling had expected... No, rather than a construction site, it was more like a miniature city. In addition to large areas of dormitories, there were countless restaurants and shops specifically used to ensure the lives of these workers. Countless buildings surrounded the high tower under construction, as if they were drawing everything from the surroundings to "transfuse blood" to the tower.

"What is this tower?" Chen Ling asked, pointing to the high tower under construction.
