Wultz, the old man, hesitated a lot before finally coming to terms with the fact that there was nothing he could do here that would get him away from the Military’s grasp.

If it was just Ning alone, maybe he could do something. But there were soldiers all around, that were only guarding the location. But if they did something to Ning, they would immediately gang up on them.

That was not the way to go. The Military could not be stopped with what he had at hand at the moment.

They had found what was happening here, and now, he needed to reveal it. He wished he would have had more time. He wanted to give those people more time.

Alas, there was none.

“Come with me,” The old man said and started walking in a certain direction.

Ning followed him, quickly realizing that they were moving toward one of the sections far away from the opening that was under construction.

The ground was very uneven, made intentionally that way so that they would have material later on to carve houses out of. The city was as large as any, but without all the houses, it didn’t take as long to traverse the entire length.

They arrived next to an unmade section of the wall and the man turned toward one of the workers that was working nearby.

“Open it,” he said.

The worker turned, looking at Wultz surprised. “Open… what?” he asked, looking at Ning next.

Ning noticed the attempt at trying to feign ignorance, and he wondered what sort of activity was going on here that everyone was privy to.

The worker slowly moved toward the wall and pulled out a chunk of the wall, leaving behind a small opening that led to a properly established section on the inside.

Ning curiously walked in, ducking a little through the initial hallway, before realizing that the rest of it was quite tall. Surprisingly, well established.

Someone had worked very hard on making these hallways.

“You’ve got lights here,” Ning said with a hint of surprise at their size. Light crystals were easy to buy, but only the tiny ones. They charged faster and were easy to transfer around.

The lights that were used in the ceiling and major sections of the city were massive. They looked small from the ground, but each one of the crystals was the size of a regular man. The same lights had been installed in this hallway as well.

This was a group with a large connection, it seemed. Was it another case where the military was involved too?

“I wasn’t aware you could get these lights smuggled too.”

The crystals that glowed for light in this world needed to be put out in the sun to charge. It lasted a long time when charged fully in the sunlight, and the only ones who could get it to the sunlight were the military.

They were the only ones with the ability, authority, and intention to do such a thing, no other person could do such a thing at all.

Given their size, there was no chance these had been bought at all, so all evidence pointed to someone’s involvement in Ning.

“We didn’t steal those,” the old man said in a grumbling tone. “They are the ones to be used in the ceiling. We’re temporarily making use of them.”

“Temporarily, huh?” Ning asked. He wasn’t sure he believed them.

Still, what exactly was this place? Where had he come to?

He walked through the long hallway and finally began seeing openings in the place. There were no doors to close at all, and Ning could see everything inside when he arrived at the

rooms.

He looked inside the first one and saw a bunch of… metals. They seemed to be metal of some sort at different angles, all piled in a corner of the room.

He looked through the other door and saw a man with his back faced against the door working on something.

Ning walked inside, making no noise as he did so, and arrived right behind the man, looking over his shoulders.

The man had a large notebook in front of him with some numbers written on it that seemed to be confusing him. The man scratched his head with his pen and went back to writing. “Darmon!” the old man said quickly, catching the man’s attention. He leisurely turned around and looked at Ning. He saw the old man through the corner of his eyes, so he wasn’t very worried.

“May I help you?” he asked.

Ning nodded. “What are you doing right now?” he asked.

“What I’m doing?” the man asked before turning to Wultz. “Is this a new helper or something? I didn’t think we needed a new one. We handle ourselves quite well without them.”

“Please answer my question,” Ning said.

The man shrugged. “It’s just some math, dude. I’m trying to figure out how much air would leave a person’s spacesuit if they were to make their homes smaller instead of bigger when trying to consume Spark out in the open.

Ning frowned a bit. “Why do you need math for that?” he asked.

“So the people who leave the spacesuit won’t suffer when trying to consume Spark. It’s just a bad idea to let them open their Spacesuit in the first place. It’s dangerous, so I’m trying to devise a new uniform for them that lets out less air when trying to gather Spark.”

It was certain to say that Ning had no idea what exactly was going on here. He hadn’t expected to meet such a person here.

“This is all?” Ning asked Wultz, who thought for a bit before shaking his head.

“There’s more,” he said with a sigh as he took Ning to another room down the hall.

Ning walked up to the next hallway and saw a woman with a piece of metal hanging from the ceiling. The woman had another piece of metal that he was using to do something.

Ning watched the two metals get together close enough that the other metal quickly stuck to

each other.

“Magnets?” Ning asked.

“Magnets!” the woman shouted out loud in surprise. “They’re fantastic, aren’t they?” She then finally turned around and was taken aback to see Ning standing so close to her

“Who are you?” she asked, not recognizing him which was understandable.

“That doesn’t matter to you,” Ning said. “I’m from the military. What are you doing with the

magnets.”

The woman panicked when she heard who Ning was. She looked at Wultz behind him who had a shameful expression on his face.

“What did you do, big brother Wultz?” she asked. “You were supposed to keep them out.”

“I’m sorry, he learned about our Spark usage. I had to show him the place in the hope that he would understand,” Wultz said. “Unlike the others, he’s young. He’ll adapt to the changes quickly. And believe me or not, we do need newer people to care about this too.”

“Yes, but his is too early,” the woman said with a frown. “If they find out now, we are going to be put in prison for our entire life.”

“You will be put in prison for your entire life if you don’t tell me what is going on right now. What are you trying to do with the magnets?” he asked.

The woman took a few deep breaths to calm herself down. “Alright, look here kid. I want to show you something,” she said and took the piece of magnet, pulling it close to the hanging

piece of metal.

The metal was quickly attracted to the magnet and remained stuck together.

“See? Isn’t this interesting?” the woman asked.

“I… suppose?” Ning said. He couldn’t understand why she was showing him how magnets

worked.

The woman then flipped the magnet to the other side and put it closer to the piece of metal

again.

However, this time, they didn’t attract each other at all.

It was only then that Ning realized that the hanging piece of metal was a magnet as well. It

was hard to judge as it didn’t look like one at all.

The hanging magnet flipped suddenly joined with the magnet on the woman’s hands.

Ning couldn’t understand why he was being made to watch this all. What was the point of

this?

“Did you see that?” he asked.

“See what?” Ning asked. “The magnet flipped when I brought it closer,” the woman said.

“Yeah, you have the same poles pointed at each other,” Ning said.

“Pole? What are you talking about? Don’t speak nonsense and just listen,” the woman said.

“You did see what happened, didn’t you?”

“Yes,” Ning said.

“Do you know why that is happening?” the man asked.

Ning had some ideas, but not a lot. “Not at all,” he said in the end.

“Exactly!” the woman said. “I don’t know either. Why do magnets don’t attract to each other

in one direction, and then you turn one piece around and they suddenly start working? Isn’t it

fascinating? How do they work?”

Ning looked at the woman. “You don’t know the answer too, do you?” he asked.

“No, but that is what we’re trying to figure out,” she said. “And not just about magnets.

About everything.”

“There is so much of the world that we live in that we take for granted. Me and my fellow

scholars have decided that enough is enough. One way or another, we will learn more truths

about this world.”

“And that is what we are doing here. We are trying to learn the world, understand it better,

and discover what is hidden.”

“If you too believe that what we are doing is fair, I plead that you do not tell of this to your

superiors.”
