Xie Xingyin originally thought that Lu Fen was just saying it casually, but he didn't expect that the "in a few days" he said would come so quickly.

After the two returned to the main city the next day, Xie Xingyin slept in the room all afternoon, and Lu Fen left beforehand.

When it was getting dark in the evening, Xie Xingyin woke up and was about to go downstairs for dinner when he heard a knock on the door.He originally thought that it was Lao Liang who came to look for him, but when he opened the door, standing outside was Xiao Lu whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

The child was still as calm as before, and when he saw Xie Xingyin he greeted him, a shy smile appeared in his deep black pupils.Xie Xingyin didn't expect to see him again so soon, he was a little surprised, and took him downstairs for dinner after chatting for a few words.

Today, by coincidence, everyone except Lu Fen was already present, and there was already a full circle of people around the dinner table.Xie Xingyin dragged Xiao Lu down the stairs, and when Ye Xing saw them, he suddenly couldn't hold back his "puchi" laugh.

Xie Xingyin was in a daze, and didn't see how scary Xiao Lu's eyes were at all. He only knew that at the dinner table, Xiao Lu didn't know whether he was shy or something, and hardly spoke much. Even Xie Xingyin asked him what he was doing these days. He only gave a few general and perfunctory answers for everything.As soon as Xie Xingyin finished his meal, he couldn't wait to drag him upstairs.

When Raphael saw them running upstairs, he fluttered his wings, climbed up the steps, and followed them upstairs.Xiao Lu was not afraid of the dragon, so he bent down and picked it up.

That night, Xie Xingyin slept on the same bed with Xiao Lu.

Xiao Lu locked the door, and after entering the door, he talked a lot more.Xie Xingyin sat by the window, looked down at Xiao Lu teasing Raphael, and thought of Lu Fen more than anything.

"Xiao Lu, how is your relationship with your brother?"

As soon as the words came out, Xie Xingyin realized that he didn't know why he started thinking about Lu Fen again.Xiao Lu was quite honest, he would say whatever he asked, and Xie Xingyin quickly got a thorough understanding of Lu Fen's general preferences.

But in fact, he still has a question that he wants to know the most, stuck in his throat, and he is a bit speechless.Looking at the window and hesitating for a long time, Xie Xingyin thought that he couldn't ask anyone else except Xiao Lu, so he gritted his teeth and asked casually, "Then...does your brother have a girlfriend?"

At this time, Xiao Lu finally couldn't help raising his head to look at him. He seemed a little surprised, but he still said, "No."

Before Xie Xingyin had time to ask further, he heard him add: "But I heard from him that there is someone I have liked for a long time."

After hearing this, Xie Xingyin could feel that his expression must have stiffened for a moment.The person he has liked for a long time, he and Lu Fen have only known each other for a short time, and he didn't even dare to say how much he knew Lu Fen, so it couldn't be him.

Xie Xingyin was not very good at describing his mood at that time, he was silent for a while before saying "um", and turned the topic elsewhere.

In the next few days, Xie Xingyin did not see Lu Fen.The door of his room has been closed tightly, and it seems that he has never come back at all.

Xie Xingyin told Lao Liang about going out of the city that day, which made Lao Liang envious, and slapped his thigh: "Hey, there must be something outside the Forbidden Forest. I heard about it a few days ago. We are preparing for the next expedition, and if there are no accidents, we will set off this month."

Xie Xingyin frowned slightly after hearing this.This matter seems quite dangerous, and I don't know if Natalie and the others will go.

After two or three days like this, Xiao Lu also left. Xie Xingyin slept from noon to evening with nothing to do. When he went downstairs, he found that there was only one old Liang in the hall, facing a crying little girl at a loss.

Xie Xingyin walked over to take a look, Xia Sheng didn't know what was wrong, and sat on the sofa crying.

"what happened?"

The little girl was crying so much that she couldn't speak clearly, and said vaguely that her brother was gone.Her brother didn't know where he was fooling around, and he didn't come back after playing like this.Xie Xingyin was not good at coaxing children, so he wiped her tears with a napkin, feeling a little helpless, he could only coax her as gently as possible: "Don't cry, okay, where does your brother usually go? I'll take you to find... "

After coaxing for a long time, Xia Sheng wiped away her tears and followed them out.

Xie Xingyin and Lao Liang led a crying little girl, followed her left and right, and finally stopped at the entrance of an inconspicuous alley.There are chaotic singing sounds from the depths of the alley, and the colorful neon lights are a bit dazzling—it’s a bar.

Xie Xingyin thought for a while, asked Lao Liang to wait outside with Xia Sheng, and went into the bar by himself.After going around in a big circle, Xie Xingyin finally found Yexing in an inconspicuous corner.

The bartender on the side said that this guy was drunk and slept here all day.Xie Xingyin originally wanted to give him up, but this guy was taller than him, and he really didn't know how to carry him away by himself.

Xie Xingyin thought for a while, tried to lift Ye Xing's arm, and gritted his teeth to pull him onto his back.But Ye Xing, who had drunk too much, was limp all over, and it was difficult to hold him steady. Xie Xingyin staggered and bumped into the next table, accidentally knocking over the cup on the next table.

Feeling that the wine was spilled, Xie Xingyin quickly turned his head, and when he was about to apologize, he made eye contact with the person at the next table.The two looked at each other, a little familiar.

Sitting at the next table was an old foreign man with a beard, his expression was a little tired, and he was also taken aback when he saw Xie Xingyin.

Soon, Xie Xingyin recognized him from this bearded cheek.This person was the German priest of the church near his home. When he was young, his Christian mother would take him to worship in that church every Sunday, so the family and the priest were also very close.

After many years, the priest was completely different from what he remembered. Not only did he have a beard on his face, but he also seemed to be much older.In fact, the change in appearance is secondary, and one can still recognize it after careful identification, but Xie Xingyin never imagined that he would be dressed so casually, sitting in a dilapidated bar and drinking.

The priest was also very surprised to meet and see Xie Xingyin here, but obviously he also recognized Xie Xingyin.The priest suddenly remembered something and said something loudly to him.His speaking speed was too fast, and his Chinese was not up to standard. Xie Xingyin didn't realize what he said for a while, but it could be seen that the priest seemed to have something very important to say to him.

It happened that Xie Xingyin couldn't hold back Ye Xing, so he put the guy down on the spot, ordered a cup of hangover tea, and planned to wait for him to wake up by himself.The priest ordered him a glass of wine and motioned him to sit down and chat.

"I didn't expect to see you here." The priest said, "You look more and more like your father."

Xie Xingyin was slightly surprised: "Have you seen my father recently?" Logically speaking, Xie Sheng disappeared ten years ago, and the priest hadn't seen him for at least ten years, so how could he still remember what he looked like.

Unexpectedly, the priest actually nodded: "Of course."



From the mouth of the priest, Xie Xingyin learned the whole story.

It turned out that the priest entered the main city about four years ago, and Xie Sheng was still there at that time.They have an old friend in common, a foreign physicist who participated in the Tongtian Tower project.

The Tongtian Tower Project was originally a first-class secret that needed to be kept strictly confidential, but at this point they are all in danger, and it doesn't matter whether it is kept secret or not.The old friend also felt that there was no need to take the truth to the grave, maybe others could find a solution if they knew what was going on.

In his original words, the appearance of Judgment Day is likely to be related to the Babel Project, and the probability of the connection is not [-]% but [-]% or [-]%.

Many people think that the Tongtian Tower only exists in this world. After all, the central square in reality is really just a square. No one has ever seen the Tongtian Tower in the world.But what most people don't know is that the "Tiantian Tower" is real, it was built by those people at that time, and it is located underground in the central square.

"Your father, Xie Sheng, is an extraordinary man. He was the chief engineer of the Tongtian Tower project." The old priest said with a sigh, "Do you still remember the disaster 20 years ago?"

At that time, the earth's resources were exhausted, disasters were approaching, and human lives were hanging by a thread.

Xie Sheng and the others put all their eggs in one basket and proposed a very bold plan, namely the Babel Project.

To put it simply, the Tongtian Tower project is actually an artificially built Einstein-Rosen bridge, also known as a wormhole.

The universe we live in is a three-dimensional space, a single parallel universe is a slice of the four-dimensional space, and countless parallel universes overlap to form the four-dimensional space.The wormhole is the hub connecting these parallel universes.

"In the beginning, we did get endless resources from it. The energy solution was successful, and everyone was very excited." The old priest said quietly, "However, human desires cannot be satisfied. We took away Too much energy destroys the energy order among parallel universes and alarms 'them'."

"Soon, Judgment Day will come."

"What are they?" Xie Xingyin narrowed his eyes.

The old priest shrugged: "Four-dimensional creatures."

High-dimensional creatures can crush the low-dimensional world, so for human beings, to a certain extent, four-dimensional creatures are the real gods.

It is unforgivable for humans to build towers to spy on their domain.

"So they want to kill us?" Xie Xingyin couldn't help frowning, "But it's not easy for them to kill us, why bother?"

The priest didn't confront him head-on, but instead said paradoxically, "God didn't kill all the humans who built the Tower of Babel to spy on God's Domain, but scattered them all over the world and weakened their power."

"You mean...they won't kill us all, they want to weaken us significantly."

"Yes. We have no way to confront them across dimensions. We can only try to save our lives. Fortunately, they probably don't want to kill us." The old priest sighed and sat up straight. "Actually, we have already discovered Some clues, look, the number of people in the main city is increasing, and the speed of newcomers is increasing exponentially. However, the total population of Hengcheng is limited. If this geometric growth rate is followed, everyone will soon enter So far, all parties are now very anxious..."

After hearing his words, Xie Xingyin couldn't help becoming worried.What about after everyone comes in?what happens?

"People always refer to the day when it all started as Judgment Day, but I think the real Judgment Day has not yet arrived." The priest's expression was not good. "If that day does come, I think it will be over."

The old priest told Xie Xingyin his understanding of Judgment Day.In this matter, the only thing they need to verify is whether there are other cities outside the Forbidden Forest, and whether it is true that everyone is being judged.This is what Daylight Guild is trying to verify.

"There are too many sins committed by human beings." The old priest sighed.

"Your father is an amazing person. He led dozens of people in their guild to verify this matter, and then he never came back."

Xie Xingyin suddenly widened his eyes.

Xie Xingyin never knew that his father Xie Sheng was the true founder of the Daytime Guild.Then Lu Fen... who is Lu Fen?He felt dizzy.

At this time, Ye Xing next to him let out a muffled grunt and opened his eyes, but his mind was still a little unclear, and he looked at Xie Xingyin in a daze.

Remembering that Lao Liang and the others were still waiting outside, Xie Xingyin had no choice but to carry Ye Xing and say goodbye to the priest.

Seeing Ye Xing's drunk appearance, Xie Xingyin couldn't help but scold him.His sister is still so young, why leave her alone to drink?

But unexpectedly, Ye Xing shook his head and said that his sister is actually not young, maybe a little older than Xie Xingyin.Xie Xingyin was taken aback after hearing this, wondering if he was stupid, and then heard Ye Xing say: "She just came in earlier, so she can keep her original appearance..."

"There's something wrong with her here." Ye Xing raised his finger and pointed at his head, "I'm immature, so I let her keep doing this, and she seems to be more coordinated."

From his expression, Xie Xingyin could vaguely sense that this guy might not be talking nonsense, but speaking the truth after drinking.

But if this is the case, is it true that the age on the surface is not believable... Xie Xingyin actually didn't care too much about how old the little girl was, but he thought of another person, but he was not sure.

At this moment, Xie Xingyin had some doubts.Thinking about it carefully, Xiao Lu is really abnormally mature, but he has not doubted much because of his appearance.

Although he was full of doubts, Xie Xingyin didn't have time to confirm it.The next day, he had to enter the tower again.
