Chapter 2048: Light Enclosure

The old man was thin and had a gloomy face. Everyone in the Fire Chestnut Tavern subconsciously stayed away from the table where he was sitting.

If it was just a quirk of personality, then such a phenomenon would not occur. Such a phenomenon would indicate that the old man may be very strong, and only being strong can make people fearful.

This was exactly the person Zhou Fan was looking for. He walked over and sat opposite the old man. He sat down, and the old man looked at him with cold eyes, but the eyes soon became dazed, and then returned to normal.

No one in the Huoli Tavern could notice such a scene. When they looked over occasionally, they could only see the old man drinking alone, and could not see the existence of Zhou Fan.

Zhou Fan picked up the jug, got himself a wine glass as if by magic, poured a glass of wine, and asked with a smile, "What's your name?"

The old man said respectfully, "Senior, my name is Yi Jianguang."

"Yi Jianguang?" Zhou Fan picked up the wine glass, "Some strange names."

"My parents hope that I will see the light in my life." Yi Jianguang said with a desolate expression. The light in his mouth was not the light emitted by the rune equipment, but the ubiquitous light in other star realms.

Zhou Fan understood the meaning of Yi Jianguang's words after a little thought, "How old are you?"

"I am one hundred and forty-one years old this year." Yi Jianguang said.

"How many years has it been since the world lost its light?"

"It has been more than three thousand years since the light was truly lost."

"More than three thousand years?" Zhou Fan was very surprised. "Then you should have never seen the real light. A world without light should be a very common thing for you. Why are you so depressed?"

Not only is it easy to see the light, but the whole city is lifeless. Human beings are very adaptable. Haven't they adapted to the lightless world for more than three thousand years?

"Because the situation is getting more and more serious." Yi Jianguang didn't wonder why Zhou Fan asked such a question. In his consciousness, it was normal for Zhou Fan to ask any questions. When he said this, his face showed bitterness.

"What's getting more and more serious?" Zhou Fan looked puzzled, "Tell me more in detail."

"The light circle is getting lower every year." Yi Jianguang explained: "The light circle is the light range measured by us using light beads of the same specification. Last year it was one foot, and this year it is only nine feet ninety-seven."

The range of illumination shrinks... Zhou Fan's face changed slightly, "You mean the range that the lighting equipment in this world can illuminate is constantly shrinking?"

"Yes." Yi Jianguang said: "Since the light was swallowed, over the past three thousand years, we have gradually discovered that the darkness has become thicker and thicker, and the range that the lamp can illuminate is constantly being compressed, so there is a light range test."

"In the past, this data would only shrink once every few years, but in the past five years, the light range has been shrinking every year. Once the light range shrinks, only by increasing the intensity of lighting can we maintain activities such as farming and hunting, but this consumes more lighting resources. It's getting bigger."

"That's fine, but now many people are worried that our lighting will eventually fail, and darkness will engulf the entire world, and there will be no more light."

The world will eventually be swallowed by darkness, Zhou Fan shuddered, he finally understood why Yi Jianguang was so pessimistic, the narrowing of the light range can even be noticed by ordinary people, and this world is so lifeless.

Perhaps in ten or eight years, the Floating Lord Star Realm will be completely covered by darkness. Zhou Fan was silent for a while and said, "Is there a Secret Pavilion in the city? Or have you heard of the Secret Pavilion?"

The problem of the Floating Lord Star Realm is not something he can solve, he can only focus on his own affairs.

"Secret Pavilion?" Yi Jianguang shook his head and said, "I've never heard of such a force, not even in the city."

"Are you sure it's true?" Zhou Fan raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Although I was not born on the 24th, I have also lived on the 24th for ten years. If it is possible, I have never heard of it." Yi Jianguang said with certainty.

"Then how many cities have you been to?"

"Five cities." Yi Jianguang said, "I have never heard of such a force in any of the five cities."

"Thank you.

"Zhou Fan stood up and left the city quickly. He then appeared in City 136, City 872, and City 511, trying to find out about the Secret Pavilion. , just got nothing.

This is different from what Zhou Fan expected. He originally thought that the Secret Pavilion can be seen everywhere here, but no one has ever heard of the Secret Pavilion. He was afraid that the Secret Pavilion would change its name here and describe the Secret Pavilion in detail. To those whom he has cast illusions on.

But the Floating Lord Star Realm doesn't even have similar forces.

In this world that has lost light, there is no trace of the Secret Pavilion, as if it does not exist at all.

He found out that even though the floating main star realm fell into darkness, the astral teleportation array was still intact, and he could go from the main star realm to other ordinary star realms at any time.

However, he didn't do this, because it was different from secretly investigating the news of the secret pavilion. Once the astral teleportation array was used, it would inevitably leave traces and be discovered by the secret pavilion and Zhang Sanshu.

He didn't believe that the Secret Pavilion and Zhang Sanshu attached so much importance to this world that they didn't have any arrangement in this world.

After thinking about it for a while, he decided to give up investigating this matter. When he learned about his next destination from Zhu Future tonight, he would leave the Floating Lord Star Realm, so there was no need to worry about it.

The next destination may be a new realm, and Zhang Sanshu will follow him again, so let's talk about it then.

No matter the day or night is night, Zhou Fan sat cross-legged in the camp. He has been counting the time since he entered this world. It should be night now, so Xiao Bian returned to his body to sleep.

He wiped away all the weirdness around the camp, and the surroundings of the camp were quiet.

He looked at the darkness outside the camp. This is a world that will gradually disappear. He usually has no fear of darkness, but when he thinks that this world will fall into eternal darkness, his heart trembles for no reason. in fear.

There is really no reason for this, he did not perceive any danger, the world is still very stable, no matter how you look at it, it will not immediately fall into darkness, even if it will immediately fall into darkness, it will not hurt him, spiritual thoughts can penetrate darkness .

He laughed dumbfounded and shook his head. When he was first reborn, he was afraid of the dark and had the idea that he had a dark phobia. Later, he found out that it was the reason of ghosts. Now it seems, isn't it all the reason?

Or it may be affected unknowingly by entering the Death Realm of the Floating Lord Star. You can ask someone again tomorrow. People in this world lose their light, and they will definitely encounter various problems that do not exist in the ordinary light world. It is too pitiful. , he thought of this and sighed lightly.

With a slight sigh, he found that the camp had changed, the talismans used for lighting disappeared, and a pile of bright yellow bonfires burned in the center of the camp, and beside the bonfires stood armored men holding shields and long swords.

Some rusty armors were shining brightly by the flames, and a deep male voice came out from the black iron mask: "Young man, pass the fire?"
