Ever since Dong Tianyu had settled his parents here, although Father Dong and Mother Dong were initially strangers in a new place, they quickly integrated into the local way of life.

In fact, many of the residents living on this floor had family situations not much different from the Thompsons, with the pillars of the household often away working and only the elderly and children actually living there.

Father Dong and Mother Dong, who both had sociable personalities, began to venture outside shortly after getting settled, once they had organized their home.

After getting familiar with the surroundings, they resumed their habit of morning exercises, with the couple playing badminton in the nearby park in the mornings.

Residents accustomed to morning exercises, upon seeing newcomers join, greeted them enthusiastically.

Gradually, Father Dong became part of the local chess and card circles, while Mother Dong found a singing troupe that welcomed her.

After all, the majority of the residents that could be found here lived no more than a few floors away and had ample time for socializing, primarily children or seniors.

As for the kids, needless to say, with their innocence and proper values, they generally found it easy to make new friends who would accept them.

And the elderly, with their rich life experiences, seemed to have an instinct for quickly finding friends they got along with.

Moreover, when Dong Tianyu left, he made sure his parents were left with plenty of resources, which helped them make friends with others who shared similar personalities even faster.

Although the third Magic City district had already popularized in-house communication devices, when Dong Tianyu left, such gadgets had not yet appeared in the base, so at this moment he had no way of contacting his parents.

Although Madeline probably had Father Dong and Mother Dong’s phone numbers, Dong Tianyu had left in a hurry and had forgotten to ask for his parents’ contact details, and he hadn’t left Madeline’s contact information either.

At this moment, Dong Tianyu used his Divine Sense to check the situation of the two neighboring families, discovering that there was no one home in both, but through the layout of the homes, he could still discern which one belonged to the Taylor family.

The floating platforms built by the Imperial Court, although advertised to the public as tiered or island-like structures, were essentially the well-known pyramid structures.

Therefore, only the outermost rooms got sunlight, while the interior rooms never saw the sun at any time.

However, each level was equipped with simulated lighting systems that could perfectly imitate natural sunlight, including ultraviolet rays and some harmful radiation.

The reason why they didn’t eliminate the harmful rays was that the human body is like a very precise instrument, and at present, no one can confidently claim to have a complete and meticulous understanding of the human body’s structure.

Eliminating certain everyday aspects could trigger unknown reactions in the body.

It’s like how many families nowadays are overly protective of their infants, refusing to let them eat certain things or seldom taking them outside—if they do go out, they are carefully guarded, preventing any excessive contact with the outside world.

However, it is precisely due to such careful protection that these children are more prone to weakness and illness as they grow.

Experience has proven that if children are exposed more to the outside world as they grow older, their bodies tend to become much stronger.

This is like comparing a ’precious grandchild’ who seldom leaves home to a ’wild monkey,’ who is always running around and playing in the dirt.

If both are at the same age, undoubtedly, the ’wild monkey’s’ physical fitness is much higher than that of the ’precious grandchild.’

For this reason, even though the light can now be controlled, in order to avoid unknown issues, the simulated light was chosen to fully mimic the natural sunlight spectrum.

And because of that, since the survivors moved to the floating platforms, none of the residents have died due to being unable to adapt to the environment.

Seeing that his parents had not returned, Dong Tianyu didn’t enter the Cave directly but carefully observed its situation with his spiritual sense.

Canary had been managing the Cave for Dong Tianyu for such a long time, so he had much confidence in them.

At this time, Dong Tianyu mainly wanted to see the situation in the Realm of the Undead. So much time had passed, and under normal circumstances, anyone sent into the Realm of the Undead by Dong Tianyu would have died either at the hands of Undead Creatures or of starvation due to lack of food.

So now, Dong Tianyu was simply curious whether, after absorbing so many souls, the Realm of the Undead might have nurtured a relatively powerful Undead being.

The current situation in the Realm of the Undead was just as Dong Tianyu initially suspected, all those who were sent there had died.

It made sense when you think about it, after all, the most dangerous thing in the Realm of the Undead wasn’t the strong Undead beings, but the pervasive death energy.

If the Undead could absorb death energy to extend their activity time, then living creatures that inhaled it for an extended period would gradually transform into Undead Creatures.
