Cave Refuge

Chapter 745 Light Pollution 2



Upon hearing Dong Tianyu say such, Mrs. Thompson immediately thought of the fact that their current use of electricity did not, as before, rely on power stations, but on an electric core buried beneath the building. Therefore, presently, no matter how much electricity they used daily, they were uniformly exempt from paying the electricity bill.

After understanding this point, coupled with Dong Tianyu's earlier explanation, Mrs. Thompson no longer dwelt on the issue of turning on the lights during the day.

Essentially, Mrs. Thompson was accustomed to frugality in the past; with the Thompson Family's current standard of living, even if all household appliances were used non-stop for twenty-four hours a day, based on the electricity pricing before the natural disaster, it really would not create much financial pressure for them.

Seeing his mother no longer objecting, Dong Tianyu and Mr. Thompson picked up a thick curtain from the ground, ready to cover all the windows in the room.

Just as the two were about to hang the already cut curtains, they suddenly felt that the light from outside shining into the room seemed brighter than before.

Since both of them were already near the window sill, and they had not yet taken off the sunglasses they were wearing, they looked up directly into the sky.

Sure enough, as Dong Tianyu predicted, another sun had appeared in the sky. Should this situation continue to progress, it was likely that by today's end, the mythological scenario of ten suns hanging in the sky would reoccur.

Dong Tianyu extended his hand to let the sunshine directly hit it. After a while, he felt no sensation of sunburn on the back of his hand. At this point, even without taking out a thermometer to measure again, he could confirm that the outdoor temperature had not risen despite the addition of another sun.

Mr. Thompson, who was now looking out of the window, noticed another sun in the sky, although, despite observing this abnormality, he chose not to say much.

With the busy work of the three Thompsons, several windows in this apartment, just like those in Dong Tianyu's apartment, were all blocked by them using thick curtains.

Meanwhile, even though residents of the Magic Capital Base noticed the sunlight was slightly dazzling, most normal people do not look up at the sky unless necessary, hence, for the time being, no one had discovered several extra suns in the sky.

Following the appearance of one sun after another, the outdoor sunlight gradually became more glaring. Before long, it seemed as if there were no shadows outside, and no matter where one stood, shadows that should have been cast by the sunlight disappeared without a trace.

And as the outdoor sunlight grew more glaring, the abnormal changes in the sky were finally noticed by others.

However, compared to before, the infrastructure of the rebuilt Magic Capital Base was much stronger, so when people found the sudden problems in the sky, the Officials immediately made a response plan.

They first contacted each street's official, who then alerted all residents in their jurisdictions, advising them to stay at home temporarily, and it was best not to go out unless necessary.

Although most people received this notification, they did not take it too seriously. After all, compared to the natural disasters they had previously experienced, the outdoor situation now seemed to involve only slightly harsh sunlight, and even if they went outside, they felt no physical harm.

However, as one sun after another remained suspended in the sky, the scene of ten suns hanging in the sky, as predicted by Dong Tianyu, truly came to pass.

As mythology was replaying, at this moment, most people without special abilities could only see a vast whiteness through the windows, unable to see the true scene outside.

Dong Tianyu did not stay long at his parents' place, actually knowing when the house was being redecorated, Mr. Thompson had arranged for both apartments to be renovated together, which made Dong Tianyu understand Mr. Thompson's intentions. Thus, after helping his father, he immediately returned to his own apartment.

Just as Dong Tianyu, lying bored in bed, prepared to return to the Cave to play with the Canaries, his Divine Sense suddenly detected something unusual.

Normally, Dong Tianyu's Divine Sense would only cover about twenty meters around him, striking a balance between reducing the mental strain of using Divine Sense and ensuring a timely warning in case of emergencies.

Under normal circumstances, the Divine Sense coverage of about twenty meters really did prove somewhat effective in dealing with most situations.

When Dong Tianyu noticed an anomaly within the range covered by his Divine Sense, he immediately focused his attention on where the anomaly was detected.

However, the entity that caused the Divine Sense to feel an anomaly could have detected Dong Tianyu's passive exploration and, before Dong Tianyu could shift his focus, it vanished as if it had the ability to teleport.

It disappeared directly from within the range of Dong Tianyu's Divine Sense, and even when Dong Tianyu expanded the coverage of his Divine Sense, he still could not find the entity that had suddenly disappeared from his coverage.

Although whatever it was had only flashed past within the range covered by his Divine Sense, this piqued Dong Tianyu's curiosity.

Just as Dong Tianyu was expanding his Divine Sense to try to find this unknown object or creature, he suddenly saw many residents of the complex, due to the excessively harsh sunlight outside, voluntarily stepping out of their homes.
