The rest of the procession was unusually quiet, even, orderly, until the ship was boarded—although the inevitable estrangement and mutual vigilance still hung around everyone, at least order was ensured.It has to be said that since being sent by the portal to this place beyond the scope of most people's knowledge, the strange sight here and the incredible journey that followed have greatly diverted the attention of the "Chosen One", and they can no longer concentrate on thinking about what they wanted to think about before, because even if they focus all their energy on understanding and observing this place, it is a little insufficient.The Giant Turtle Rock Terrace, anchored in a dedicated starport, slightly shattered the quiet, almost dreary atmosphere: it was a beautiful ship, not as large as the giant civilian transports or low-tech warships, but it was distinguished only by the special harbor it occupied and the large and sophisticated servos near it.The Chosen Ones were amazed when they heard that this was the ship Hao Ren had arranged for them, and looked up under the starship's hover bracket - Hao Ren felt that more than 90 percent of their attention was looking at the husky's head drawn on the deck of the ship......
"This is a ship sticker, a personalized ship sticker—haven't you seen a car sticker!"
”Hao Ren strained his face and tried to explain the huge dog head on the ship in a serious manner.Lily's innocent face stretched through the ship's three armor belts, from the waistline to the aft hood plate......
Vivien's expression remained unchanged but she squeezed out a voice from between her teeth: "I don't think you should have been fooled by the big dog's soft grinding and hard bubbles in the first place, you just drew a Guo Degang on the spaceship is better than the husky's stupid face." ”Hao Ren: "Be more serious with the group......
Fortunately, no one stalked about what it meant to print a husky head on the spacecraft, they accepted this style of painting in surprise and fun, and some even smiled: it seemed that after watching a lot of incomprehensible things on this cold and unfamiliar space station, they finally saw something familiar to them, and even the husky's face was a little warm.Under Nolan's guidance, the passengers boarded the ship in an orderly manner under the effect of the towing beam, and so far, no accidents have happened.Hao Ren came to the bridge, took a look at the passenger compartment (in fact, it was the large lounge, there were only a hundred people in total anyway, and there was no need to modify Gnaku), and after confirming that the situation inside was fine, he sent a request signal to the guidance station of Kuiper Station to request the spacecraft to leave the station."
Then it's time for us to lead the group to witness the miracle," Hao Ren rubbed his hands after giving the signal, with full confidence and a smug expression on his face, "This is a trip that I carefully designed and carefully arranged for them, and it will definitely open the eyes of these guys......"
Before he finished speaking, the feedback from the guidance station of Kuiper Station had been transmitted to the bridge: "The departure request has been accepted - confirm the Z88-1350 special line, the 'Sunset Red Homecoming Visiting Group' is about to leave the Star Harbor, repeat,' Sunset Red Homecoming Family Visiting Group is about to leave the Star Harbor ......"
"Just the name of this group," Nangong Sanba looked at Hao Ren with strange eyes for a long time, "You dare to say from the bottom of your heart that you are carefully designed?"
”"Nonsense, can you find a more memorable name than these words?"
Hao Ren was straightforward, "And anyway, this kind of informal personal flight does not leave a long-term file, so the temporary name is different." ”The others on the bridge waved their hands: "Okay, okay, you have a reason, you have a reason......"
The Giant Turtle Rock Platform rolled up a burst of blue light in space, and gradually accelerated out of the gravitational restraint circle of the Kuiper station, and it suddenly disappeared into the mirror sphere formed by the warped space, and a recorder at the observation tower of the Kuiper station recorded this scene: "On the XX day of the XX year, the Imperial Examiner Hao Ren led him to form it."
Sunset Red Homecoming Visiting Group's journey, this is the first official return trip of the remnants of the dream plane after 10,000 years of exile on the earth, although it is only a small-scale, short-term return, but it marks the biggest progress of the dream plane incident so far, maybe we can finally expect that those lost descendants who have been displaced in a foreign land will have the opportunity to return to their hometowns, maybe today is a new turning point in history......
"Hao Ren is right, special flights like this will not leave long-term files in the data database- But it went down in history......
However, those who have already set off on the ship will not know what is being written by a recorder on the observation tower, who is now in the closed vesicle created by the warping of space, and is rushing towards the depths of the universe at the speed of light.Adney stayed in the starship lounge, surveying every stranger around her with a cautious and wary attitude, trying to remember everything she had seen here.She knew that everyone around her was like that, so she had no need to hide her attitude and looks: rather, this open-minded vigilance was one of the conditions that would guarantee "peace."
She is a Silver Witch who takes refuge in a South American vampire hermitage as a high-ranking advisor and mentor.Unlike human wizards or witches who were once slaves and learned a little magic from behind the ancient gods, "silver witch" or "silver wizard" is a term used to be a true member of the ancient gods, and Adene's memories can be traced back to ancient Sumerian, when she was the patron saint of a city on the plains of Mesopotamia during the barbaric years of civilization - but those glorious times are gone.
Now all that was left of her memory were the silhouettes of the city-states dyed with yellow sand and the ruins of some collapsed and burning ancient cities, and these fragmented memories made her both bored and depressed, and perhaps in order to relieve the boredom of this life, she agreed to the request of the vampire hermitage to respond to the call of the Dark Council as a representative (according to the proposal, this is called the "Chosen One") and become a member of the team.Now she was curiously looking at the place and the strange members of the team.The werewolf from South America, who seems to be a kid of the Eben family, a guy who often deals with him, is still as noisy and frivolous as ever.The vampires from Europe, no different from the monastic guys, were dull, dark, unsmiling, and basically had a zombie face except for the one named Heatherian, but they themselves called it gentlemanly and restrained.The rune dwarves from Australia, ah, who realized that something was wrong before the end of the Age of Mythology, and then built a large ship to escape from the center of the vortex and live in seclusion underground, if they hadn't left Northern Europe so early, maybe the Assaphs would have held out a little longer.The Kraken from the deep sea, those mysterious races have also appeared, and their queens seem to have appeared in person.That lady Caterina and her entourage were probably the only ones here who were truly happy, not involved in the mythical wars, nor drawn into any of the alien scuffles, and sometimes envious of the unrivalled creatures who lived in the deep sea.And them, witchers from the North Pole......
Adeni's gaze inevitably fell on the witchers, who sat at the other end of the common room, forming two distinct circles with almost all the aliens, and there seemed to be an invisible force field around them, and even the most irascible werewolves were reluctant to look in that direction.However, these witchers seem to be a little different from Adene's impression.They were much less murderous, less of that utterly indescribable frenzy, and they sat together, whispering to each other or exchanging food and drinks, and occasionally even looked at each other and nodded with a suspicious smile on their faces—the expressions were stiff, and it was obvious that they themselves did not want to do such a move, but they reluctantly said hello.Adney frowned, but nodded reluctantly.The witcher girl named "White Fire" seemed to be active, and she was talking loudly among her companions, as if to show her knowledge of the place, and she mentioned Star Wars, Gundam, Halo, and Stea, a bunch of strange words that didn't sound like a reliable explanation, but her companions around her listened with interest.It turns out that witchers are also good at laughing.What a strange place to be, Adney thought.Why do these people get mixed up?
Why do people of all races, camps, and ages crammed into this metal vehicle to take part in a "journey" that is said to be "significant", but mysterious from beginning to end?
Adney remembered what she had seen along the way, and then had to admit that it had seriously shaken some of her perceptions.Everyone else sitting here – as long as their intelligence is above average – should be the same.For the first time, they had to add the concept of "cosmic level" to their thinking process, and then think back to the inconsistencies and clever scheming they had been fighting and scheming on that small blue planet for thousands or even 10,000 years, those magnificent battles, glorious temples, and countless treasures, as if they were all looking up at the universe at that moment."
Attention, the spaceship is about to leave the hyperspace, attention, the spaceship is about to leave the hyperspace......"
The lights in the lounge suddenly began to switch, and after the brightness decreased, a holographic projection slowly appeared on the metal walls on both sides, showing the scene of the outside of the spaceship.Some red and blue stripes formed something like a tunnel, and the ship moved forward in the tunnel, which quickly shortened and dissipated, forming a stable pattern of stars and nebulae, and came to a standstill as if frozen frame.The spacecraft is still flying at an alarming speed, but at the scale of the universe, its relative velocity to the surrounding celestial bodies has come to a near-standstill.A magnificent spiral nebula appeared in front of everyone, causing everyone who saw it for the first time to hold their breath, and the terrifying oppression caused by the all-consuming material storm made even an old hunter like Hasselblad stop his heart for half a beat.“…… I probably won't be able to play VR anymore......"
Bai Huo sighed to himself.The large space complex around the Rift Nebula and the blue-green planet that orbits like a sentinel near the "eye of the storm" like a sentinel like an Earth-like space building attracted the attention of many people, who speculated about the function of those space buildings, and discussed whether the gate was the rift in the center of the nebula.At the same time, some people noticed the "strange scenery" floating above the blue-green planet: something that seemed to be an otherworldly continent floating in space, connected by huge green vine-like structures, such a sight made some of the aliens and witchers who knew something about the Asaph god system look thoughtful."
Fellow travelers, I am the captain of this ship," Hao Ren's voice rang out at the right time, "you have come to the key link of this journey—before your eyes is the gate connecting the two worlds, the Gate of the Universe, which you can see in the rift in the center of the nebula.Later we will pass through this door, and you will truly reach the Dream Plane, the home of all of you.Before that, I'd like to introduce a little bit about the planet next to the eye of the rift storm, it's called Purgatory, and some of you may know that name, because the entrance to Purgatory has appeared on Earth more than once over the past thousand years......
"That's Purgatory!?"
”"It actually exists, and in this place?"
There was an irrepressible exclamation in the lounge.Hao Ren's explanation did not end, and quickly moved on to another topic: "There should also be people who have noticed the 'otherworldly continents' floating in the sky above the Purgatory Planet and the plants that spread and grow between the continents, and some of you should be more familiar with it: it is Yugudo Lahir, and in the information I have given you, it mentions its other identity, that is, the 'Chrono Ark' that all supernatural beings on the earth used to ride when they entered this universe 10,000 years ago.It was once the domain of the Assalian people, but now it has become one with purgatory......"
The Chosen One in the lounge exchanged glances in some dismay, and then many of them quickly pulled out the thick data sets (they were part of the plan, which Hao Ren jokingly dubbed the "Sunset Red Homecoming Visitor Travel Manual DLC Pack") and began to read the sensational truths above seriously for the first time.Obviously, they hadn't really looked at these things before......
I have to say that Lily's cheap travel ad cover that she downloaded from the Internet and then Photoshopped it herself was one of the major factors that led to this result.The Giant Tortoise Rock Terrace slowly accelerated, and approached the "Cosmic Gate" in the center of the Rift Nebula, and Yugudo Lahir's image was gradually swept behind in the footage from the external monitor.10,000 years ago, countless dream plane refugees came to this universe on that huge "chrono ark".Ten thousand years later, a hundred Dream Plane remnants who had forgotten their homeland passed by the Ark on the Inquisitor's spaceship, and embarked on their first journey home in a daze."
We are about to pass through the gate of the universe," on the bridge, Hao Ren switched the internal wiring, and the communicator presented an image of the consciousness of the drone swarm, "The swarm, turn on all the monitoring points, from now on, I want you to monitor the cosmic parameters of all known spaces in the dream plane." ”Like a shining drop of mercury, the Giant Tortoise Rock Terrace fell lightly into the gate.
