Chapter 942: Blackout

A blinding electric bolt shot out the central control station's outer shell and traveled across the mountain-like pipings across the area, looking much like an aurora breaking through the dark night. The flash was very far away, and initially, only Hao Ren and his crew who had enhanced vision noticed it but soon after, panic ensued. As the bolt faded away, rolling smoke came out from the central control station and a massive flash blasted out from the buildings nearby the station, and even the civilians now could see what was going on.

To the denizens of the ark, it was like the world's end was ablaze, and it was terrifying.

Panicked shouting came from one of the towers on the wall, and Hearthfire was immediately rocked with commotion. The civilians inside the city ran out and panicked at the sight of light and smoke. Children cried in fear and even the adults feel to their knees praying for some sort of divine providence. Following the chaos was a massive blackout.
