Chapter Summary
When Liu Ning and his group got off the train, their first impression was how cold it was. Liu Ning wasn't someone who couldn't endure hardship; he knew what cold meant before—tens of degrees below zero—and could simulate it in his previous city. Because it snows every day of the year in the Northern City, there's no possibility of high temperatures.
When Liu Ning and his group got off the train, their first impression was how cold it was. Liu Ning wasn't someone who couldn't endure hardship; he knew what cold meant before—tens of degrees below zero—and could simulate it in his previous city. But this situation surprised him. The cold here was the kind that seeped into your bones. Although you couldn't see it in the temperature, you could feel it from the surrounding environment. Looking around, the entire platform seemed like a giant block of ice.
There's no trace of the original reinforced concrete. In other places, even if it snows, such areas would be cleared away quickly. But it's completely different in the Northern City. Because it snows every day of the year in the Northern City, there's no possibility of high temperatures. Originally, the Earth had spring, summer, autumn, and winter, but the summer temperature here is -20 degrees Celsius, only 10 degrees Celsius higher than here. The snow would never melt, so they simply didn't bother with it.
When this city was first built, there were many cleaning machines on the streets, but now all of them are broken down and are completely useless. If the entire road is cleaned this morning, it may be back to its original state by this afternoon. Do we really have to spend so much time on this every day?
If things continue like this, half of the city's public budget might be spent here, and ultimately, it won't achieve any good results. So, the city's residents are saying that instead of wasting money on this kind of place, why not create a new environment for us? They could build some underground and indoor facilities instead of leaving us exposed to the freezing cold every day.
Moreover, spending so much money and seeing nothing was a very tragic thing for them. After hearing about this, the entire municipal engineering project began to change. They started building a lot of underground facilities instead of doing these things on the surface, mainly because they were not very useful.
"This is probably the first time you've been to this city, so please allow me to explain. Because this city is quite cold, there is another city beneath it, which is the underground city. Perhaps this is not possible in other cities, but in this city, the underground city is indeed very important. For example, those tall buildings in the distance, we can completely avoid being on the surface."
Then, people exchange between the various buildings. There are all sorts of people underground. What kind of people would expose themselves on the surface? Most of them are people like us who have never been here before and want to experience it a little. You should know that any means of transportation on the surface are specially designed, so if people are on the surface, it is not good for anyone. So please follow me to this passage.
It's quite warm here, and you can take off your cotton-padded coats. If I'm not mistaken, you should all feel how heavy this equipment is. You've all had a tough journey. After walking through this 50-meter passage, we can enter the dungeon. Everything in the dungeon is similar to that in the outside world, so there's nothing to worry about.
You might feel a little out of place when you first arrive, but after living here for a while, you might fall in love with this underground city. However, the naval base has a rule that everyone must stay on the surface for half an hour every day. If you don't go out, your body might lack a lot of nutrients, and without contact with the outside sky, you might quickly become useless.
This is the strict order here, completely different from inland cities. If anyone disobeys, the naval headquarters might send someone to arrest you. Don't think I'm joking; this is something everyone who enters here must learn.
Miss Julie had also come along, and she was now describing the situation here. For Miss Julie, the situation here wasn't good. She had been here once before on a mission, and if she had a choice, she would rather never come here again, but unfortunately, that was impossible.
Miss Julie works for the Bureau of Investigation, which is involved in all sorts of things. If you wanted to choose a job, you should have done so 10 years ago. Now, it's practically impossible to choose a job. The Bureau of Investigation won't allow anyone to do anything that doesn't comply with the rules, so once you step through this door...
Basically, it's impossible to leave here. Because of this, once you enter the Investigation Bureau, you don't need to worry about food, clothing, shelter, or transportation. You'll be locked up here for life. Even if you get injured in the future, they will definitely reimburse all your medical expenses, including your living expenses for the rest of your life. There are direct regulations in place, so you won't have to worry about anything.
After hearing Miss Julie's words, everyone felt very curious, so they all followed Miss Julie downstairs. Apart from the 50-meter exposure distance, the rest of them went straight in. The temperature inside instantly reached 10 degrees Celsius, so many people felt a wave of heat hit them, and many people had a lot of water vapor on their bodies. The temperature difference between the top and bottom was nearly 50 degrees Celsius.
If it weren't for their formidable strength, they would have had to use a different passage. Ordinary people, of course, cannot use this passage. Ordinary people have a special passage, and they must wear special clothes to enter it, otherwise, it will cause great damage to their bodies. Therefore, these people are not using the same passage as them. The people Liu Ning brought are different.
They were all capable of fighting, so when they came down, Liu Ning changed clothes with them. He had never seen an underground city like this before. It was like an underground city, and there was lighting everywhere, so it didn't seem very dark. The only thing that was a bit off was some of the people here. Their faces looked very numb, as if they didn't look like people from an inland city at all.
