Chapter 225 - The Huge Cost

The next morning.

Liu Yan had a break and brought a few girls out for a stroll.

Because of the power outage, many places were closed.

The few of them walked for a while and discovered that there were many media reporters. They were discussing the protest against the power outage for seven days.

Luo Qingcheng saw this scene and frowned slightly, “I’ve heard about it too. It’s said that many people are protesting and opposing this power outage. The seven-day power outage has indeed affected many things.”

Murong Xue nodded slightly, “Because of the power outage, we cannot use the training room in Combat Technique School anymore. We can only train on the training ground for the next seven days.”

Chu Long blinked her eyes and asked curiously, “What kind of experiment will cause a power outage for seven days?”

Luo Qingcheng was also a little curious at this time. She said, “According to what I know, the core energy of Lighthouse Academy is extremely powerful. Even if it’s a big experiment, it usually doesn’t need a power outage for seven days. I guess the school was going to do something major.”

Liu Yan didn’t say anything at the side. Instead, he felt that this so-called big experiment was to create a perfect foundation for himself.

The few of them walked and arrived near the office building of the Lighthouse Academy.

At this moment, many reporters and people from various parties were blocking the area and protesting.

“What kind of big experiment needs a seven-day power outage?”

“That’s right. It will affect our lives too much.”

“I can’t do my work anymore. I can’t work for seven days at all.”

“Lighthouse Academy should at least explain. They just said that they were doing an experiment and did not say anything else. This is too much.”

“The core energy source is shared by our third-and-a-half level central resting platform. The academy can’t affect all of us just because they’re doing their experiments for their benefit, right?”

“…”

Everyone discussed animatedly. They were all extremely dissatisfied and hoped the power supply could be restored.

At this moment, the principal, Zhong Yuntian, walked out from the front.

“Everyone, please be quiet.” Zhong Yuntian said faintly.

A voice filled with authority spread out in all directions. Everyone quieted down under this imposing aura. They did not say anything more and looked toward the principal, Zhong Yuntian.

Zhong Yuntian looked at the people in front of him, his expression was slightly solemn as he said, “Everyone, I understand the displeasure in your hearts. I also know that the power outage this time has caused a certain impact on everyone’s lives and work. However, I hope that everyone can understand. This experiment is of great importance. We must carry it out!”

When everyone heard Principal Zhong Yuntian’s consolation, the dissatisfaction in many people’s hearts decreased by a lot. However, there were still many puzzled people.

“Principal, what experiment is it? Can you tell us about it?”

“As long as you tell us what experiment it is, we will definitely not cause any more trouble.”

“That’s right. As long as we know what experiment it is, it will be fine.”

“…”

Zhong Yuntian shook his head and said, “Everyone, this experiment is important and extremely secretive. Forgive me, but I can not reveal any information to you. I can only tell you that this experiment will concern the future of our entire human race. It is to advance the future of our human race. I cannot say anything else.”

As Zhong Yuntian spoke, he glanced at Liu Yan and retracted his gaze.

Although it was just a simple glance, Liu Yan immediately understood. Liu Yan felt his guess was correct. There was no so-called experiment at all.

They stopped the function of the core origin stone for seven days to create a perfect foundation for Liu Yan.

When everyone heard this, they were all shocked. They didn’t expect this experiment to be so important. It concerned the future of mankind.

Although they did not know the exact details, they still trusted Principal Zhong Yuntian.

“Principal Zhong Yuntian’s achievements are all worthy of recognition. We should believe in him.”

“That’s right, I believe in Principal Zhong.”

“If it’s secretive, we won’t ask anymore. We believe in Principal Zhong.”

“It’s only seven days. Everyone, it’s okay to endure for a while. It’s for the future of mankind.”

“That’s right. We’ll just endure seven days.”

“…”

Gradually, everyone trusted Principal Zhong Yuntian. They stopped causing trouble and gradually dispersed.

Not long after, the people gathered from various forces and media gradually dispersed.

Luo Qingcheng looked at this scene and couldn’t help but ask with some doubt, “Why do I feel that principal just glanced at Liu Yan? Could it be that this experiment has something to do with Liu Yan?”

Liu Yan was slightly shocked after hearing Luo Qingcheng’s words. After all, Luo Qingcheng was a genius student of the Command School. Luo Qingcheng’s combat strength was average, but she was extremely intelligent. She could make speculation from the tiny moment of the principal.

However, the others didn’t think too much about it, and Luo Qingcheng also didn’t dwell on it too much.

“It seems that this experiment is very important. I hope that the principal can succeed.” Chu Long said with some worry.

After that, Liu Yan and the others also dispersed and went for a stroll.

In the next few days, Liu Yan did not focus on cultivation. Instead, he relaxed his body and mind for a rare occasion.

During the day, he accompanied the few girls out for a stroll and play. At night, he rested well in the villa.

It was a rare time for him to rest. Liu Yan rested well and adjusted his state.

Three days later.

Early in the morning, Liu Yan arrived at the Lighthouse Academy’s core origin stone on time as promised and waited here.

Liu Yan looked around but didn’t see the principal’s figure. He couldn’t help but feel puzzled. Could it be that he remembered the wrong time or place?

But at this time, the ground beside him was opened and Principal Zhong Yuntian poked his head out.

“Liu Yan, you’re here. Hurry up and come in.” Principal Zhong Yuntian smiled and said.

Liu Yan was a little surprised when he saw this. He didn’t expect it to be underground.

Liu Yan hurriedly followed Principal Zhong Yuntian into the underground and closed the entrance.

After going deeper into the underground, Liu Yan saw many pipes extending in all directions. They should be the energy pipes of the core origin stone.

The entire third-and-a-half level central resting platform relied on the origin stone to transport energy and supply the entire third-and-a-half level central resting platform.

At this moment, Liu Yan also noticed that these pipes had stopped. They did not transport any energy out. It was probably to create a perfect foundation.

Liu Yan confirmed that the power cut for seven days was to create a perfect foundation for him. He could not help but be a little surprised. He did not expect that creating a perfect foundation would require so much energy. It required almost the entire function of the core origin stone, which was a huge amount of energy.

Principal Zhong Yuntian brought Liu Yan in. He explained, “This is where the core origin stone is. You need to use the largest amount of energy to help you absorb the four great treasures and the Giant Whale’s Fragrance in a short period. You need to recreate the perfect foundation to achieve the best effect.”
