Chapter 1912: Heart-Pounding Countdown
"How bright?"
Professional technicians really were something else. Their timely support couldn't have come at a better moment.
Fu Qian had only casually shared a theory to help everyone grasp just how urgent the situation was.
But with Professor A Kai providing a real-time demonstration without wasting a second, the effect had undoubtedly reached its peak.
Even His Excellency Stos could no longer sit calmly at the center of the group. Under the many gazes turned his way, he frowned slightly and asked,
"A little... but it seems to still be changing."
After looking all around and checking every corner, A Kai continued with the bad news.
Hmm...
Another brief silence fell.
The reason was easy to understand. Fu Qian was certain that, so far, things inside the ark were almost exactly the same as last time.
In other words, he hadn't noticed any change in brightness yet.
He believed the other high-ranking Transcendents felt the same.
By comparison, there was no way Professor A Kai's reaction was due to more acute senses. It was because his rank was the lowest and his resistance the weakest.
It was perfect support for the theory he'd just proposed.
"How bright?"
But that wasn't enough. The next moment, Fu Qian was the first to break the silence, repeating His Excellency Stos's question.
"...Like the sun at five in the morning?"
The same question had a different effect when a technical expert emphasized it.
A Kai was only momentarily taken aback before understanding what Professor Fu meant and offering a measurable estimate.
It was a bit of an awkward comparison, but it gave everyone a much clearer sense of the situation—and a basis for judging it.
After all, the brightness before them clearly hadn't even reached a quarter past four.
