The entire underground city seemed to be very peaceful, as if no one needed to worry about resources.
Behind them was the earth's largest resource warehouse. Food, water, cloth, fur, modern products, etc. They did not lack anything.
The so-called work area seemed to have a lot of people in charge of production. There were probably also industrial facilities in charge of smelting.
The bishop in charge of Gaia's Ark would casually bring in a huge ore and then hand it over to a group of people to cool, smelt, and process it.
Periodically, the ark would be driven to the surface and open up a path to the surface to transport resources to the outer church.
These resources would be used to exchange for the necessities that the underground city needed and could not produce.
At the same time, they would also breathe in this huge cave. After all, if it was sealed for a long time, wouldn't it suffocate to death?
"It should be like this. The so-called Gaia's Ark, or the underground city created by Gaia's Ark, is like an underground aircraft carrier. Periodically, it will move and float up. "
"In the past, if we wanted to catch them, we had to catch the forces on the surface and then kill them while they were floating up."
"But they must be very careful. Every time they float up, they must have confirmed the safety of the base and used many fake connections to test it."
"It can be said that without you … … we would not have been able to find this place."
Wu Yunmo said as he patted Mo Qiong.
Wade's memory was completely sealed by the church and sent to various countries to live a normal life as if he was abandoned.
This kind of person was different from those who were sent to the surface with a purpose.
There was a small possibility that they would unintentionally participate in some matters and become an outer circle member. Later on, because of their kind nature and talent, they would work hard to become a member.
That's right, spontaneously. After the Gaia Church sealed their memory, they did not care. They never contacted them and never asked them to do anything.
Everything was done naturally. With a one in ten thousand chance, they gambled on a few 'spies' being chosen by fate and entering the Blue White Society.
Among them, Wade was probably the luckiest one. Not only did he become a member, he also worked hard for 20 years and lived to this day. He was already a Delta class member.
This kind of spies, in order to not be discovered by the Blue White Society, even the church itself did not know who was still alive and who really became a member.
It was just a chess piece buried deep in the Blue White Society.
If necessary, once the Gaia Church decided to launch an all-out attack, they would use a certain anomaly to incite those spies.
But now that Ke Long had detected it in advance and used Mo Qiong to position himself, it could be said that he had created an excellent initiative for the Lan Bai She.
Mo Qiong shrugged and said, "But there are many places that we are not allowed to enter. Are we going to sneak in and check?"
"There's no rush. Now, the enemy is in the light while we are in the dark. This operation must be completed in one fell swoop and wipe out the entire Gaia Church. We still don't know what kind of surveillance they have, so we need to figure out their security first. "Wu Yun Mo said.
Everyone nodded. Public security was an important indicator of a city-state's ability to govern.
Would there be crime in such a utopian place?
If so, how would they be captured and dealt with?
Mo Qiong said, "The big guy mentioned a detail. Most of the people working in the industrial area are bad guys."
"What do you think the bad guys they're talking about are?"
Master Gou said, "Criminal? No, there should be more than that. There should be impious people as well, right? That big guy was created, so he can't be a bad guy. "
"The meaning is very clear. Because the created people are brainwashed, they are extremely devout and willing to die for the church."
"Then, the so-called bad guys are people who are not devout and have violated the church's rules."
Wu Yun Mo said, "There's another detail. Before the big guy spoke to us, he observed our shoes."
Mo Qiong said, "Yes, our shoes are strictly designed according to what the people in town wear. There shouldn't be a problem with sandals with pure leather soles. That big guy was wearing the same thing. "
"This could represent our identity. We are wearing the style of commoners." Catherine said.
Master Gou tilted his head and said, "But we didn't find any non-commoner style."
Mo Qiong's eyes lit up and said, "No, there's one kind, and that is not wearing shoes!"
Everyone nodded secretly. There were indeed a few people in the city-state who did not wear shoes. And the people who were doing manual labor in the work area were also not wearing shoes.
"Fortunately, we wore shoes. Otherwise, we might have been treated as slaves." Mo Qiong said.
They realized that most of the people in the residential area had nothing to do. If they were not sightseeing, they were chatting in the park.
Occasionally, they could see a group of people praying in front of a statue.
That statue was strange. It was not Gaia!
"Are you sure this golden statue is not Gaia?" Mo Qiong asked.
"Definitely not. Gaia's main body is suppressed in the underwater prison. How can I not know what she looks like?" Wu Yun Mo said.
"Maybe it's Gaia's appearance in ancient times? Or maybe it's an artistic image of a statue? "Mo Qiong said.
Wu Yun Mo shook his head and said, "Impossible. First of all, Gaia likes female images. And this statue is depicting a laughing man. Secondly, no matter how artistic it is, do you think Gaia will hold up a big light bulb? "
"Gaia is Mother Earth, not the God of Light. And this big light bulb has threads!"
Mo Qiong took a closer look. Indeed, there were threads where the light bulb was held. This was actually a light bulb!
Since this was not Gaia's statue, then who were they praying to?
The followers of the Gaia Church were openly praying to another god in the sacred land?
They could not go up and ask. If they did, they would definitely be exposed.
Hence, they pretended to play and got closer. Then, they followed suit and prayed. They wanted to hear what these people were saying.
It had to be said that no one cared about the four children playing here.
When the citizens of the city saw this, they only smiled. They were not even worried about the children not being watched by adults.
Thinking about it, this underground city was a closed society. There was no need to worry about human traffickers.
If they were to break the law in public, there was nowhere to run. There was nowhere to hide. They could only face the law.
Where could they run to? This was the Earth's mantle. Could they go to the sky?
Hence, on the surface, the social atmosphere was open and harmonious. Public security was extremely good. Everyone had a smile on their face as they enjoyed a peaceful, leisurely and slow pace of life.
Very quickly, from the words they eavesdropped, they could deduce that this city was purely ruled by a theocracy. Any disputes would be resolved by a priest.
The priest was naturally the priest of the Gaia Church. And the unfamiliar statue they were praying to was the so-called subordinate god of Gaia … the God of Electric Light.
"God of Electric Light … Did I hear wrongly? How can there be such a god? "Mo Qiong thought.
Gou Ye was also stunned. The ancient Gods and Demons were all natural gods. Whether it was the ancient words of Soul Island or the battle with Gaia, he had never heard of a God of Electric Light.
How could a light bulb become a god?
Wu Yunmo and Catherine said seriously: "There is no such god. It must be a god created by the Gaia Church."
"A fictional god … But why would they create a god of electric light? And let the believers worship it seriously? "Gou Ye asked.
Wu Yunmo was silent. He also could not understand.
Mo Qiong said: "It must be useful. They say that this is the subordinate god of Gaia. Anything that involves Gaia is part of the teachings. The people of the church are very serious about it. So when it comes to the sanctity of the teachings, praying to the God of Electric Light must have some magical effect. It can't be done randomly … I suspect that the so-called God of Electric Light is an anomaly. "
They encountered an anomaly so quickly? No one acted rashly. They took note of it.
Then they silently retreated and prepared to ask a local child.
After running for a while, a sudden gust of wind blew from the side and lifted up Gou Ye's clothes.
"These clothes are too open. If we walk faster, the wind will expose our bodies … Why do I feel like I'm exposed everywhere?" Gou Ye muttered through his mental power.
"The underground is closed and stuffy. It is normal to dress like this. The people here are not ashamed of being naked. I saw many children running around with their buttocks naked. The adults also show their breasts." Wu Yunmo said.
Catherine said: "The underground is closed, where is the wind coming from?"
This is a problem. Gou Ye rubbed his finger and wet the surface of his skin. He quickly sensed the weak direction of the wind.
Everyone chased and played as they ran towards the source of the air flow.
But after running for a while, the direction of the wind changed. After changing several times, they found that the cold air was blowing out from the houses.
"What? Does every house have an air conditioner? "Mo Qiong guessed.
Catherine refuted: "I didn't find an air conditioner outside."
They went to a window and leaned against it to look inside. A gust of cold wind blew in their faces.
In the direction of the wind, there was no machine. It was a shrine.
The statue was also very unfamiliar. What was even stranger than the God of Electric Light was that there was an air conditioner under the statue.
"Hey, hey, hey, that's an air conditioner, right?"
"It's indeed an air conditioner … Could this be the God of Air Conditioners?"
Just as everyone was in shock, a child with snot running out of the house ran over and shouted, "Why are you leaning on my window?"
"Wow! You're so beautiful. "
Then, the child pointed at Gou Ye and sniffed.
Gou Ye's face was cold. He wanted to smoke a cigarette.
Mo Qiong, Gou Ye, and Wu Yunmo. For some reason, Gou Ye was indeed the most beautiful.
"What's your name? My name is Andy. You're as beautiful as the starry sky. You must have been carved by God himself! "The little kid Andy went up to Gou Ye and said.
Gou Ye said indifferently: "Where's the starry sky?"
Andy looked at the dome and said: "My mother said that the starry sky is the most beautiful creation of God. If we can see the starry sky one day, we can see God."
Gou Ye took the opportunity to ask about the God of Electric Light.
Andy was shocked: "Stupid, the descendant of the great Gaia … How can the God of Electric Light not know? You're too impious. "
"Hahaha, I'm lying! I'm just testing you! "Gou Ye laughed.
Seeing Gou Ye laugh awkwardly, Andy sniffed and said: "You look better with a straight face."
"…" Gou Ye stopped smiling.
Sure enough, everyone knew about the Electric Light God. Fortunately, he had asked the child, who was naive and romantic, and was easily fooled.
After a few words and mental suggestions, everyone quickly learned some basic knowledge.
The so-called God of Electric Light and God of Air Conditioners were told to everyone by the priest. He said that they were the gods of Mother Gaia and wanted them to worship them together.
He said that everyone's faith would receive light and suitable air from it.
In other words, as long as they prayed to the statue of the God of Air Conditioners, the statue would operate like an air conditioner … If they prayed to the God of Electric Light, the statue would shine like an electric light.
It was as if the statues were machines, and their faith was the energy.
The 10 huge balls of light on the dome were the energy absorbed by the various statues in the square, creating a light source.
And since every household had an air conditioner, the statues would be able to maintain the temperature in the sealed cave.
Mo Qiong and the others looked at each other. Without a doubt, this was an anomaly.
They didn't believe that the God of Gaia could do this. This was clearly using an anomaly to wrap a layer of mythical doctrine and forcefully implicating Gaia.
In fact, these two so-called Gods had nothing to do with Gaia.
"They should be derivatives. The God of Electric Light and Air Conditioners were created by an anomaly."
"The Church of Gaia has an anomaly that can create 'man-made Gods' …"
