Once upon a time, the "New Hope City" behind Shannuya was a bustling city with bustling traffic and bright lights, where countless residents thrived and lived for generations.
But as most of the residents moved to nearby starships, the town became much spacious and bleak.
Until now, only some people who have close relations with Shannuya live here, such as those from the "Dream Control Bureau" The staff, and... the Guards.
Yes, the "Guards", a very ridiculous organization.
As soon as Pepe approached the town, he saw hundreds of armored warriors practicing.
They were commanded by Pepe's brother Reich, each of them waving shiny weapons.
The weapon looks like an ancient cold weapon, but it has all kinds of incredible magical powers.
It can even tear apart space.
It can also remotely control powerful unmanned battle shuttles, which are like thousands of meteors circling around the body.
It looks very majestic.
——But that’s just what it looks like.
To be honest, Pepe has never understood the meaning of the existence of the "Guards".
In theory, the so-called "Guards" are an organization that protects everyone, right?
The problem is that the golden combination of humans and void hunters has been traveling in the star sea for thousands of years without encountering any opponent!
Yes, there are behemoths such as "Hill Crabs" that can compete with Void Hunters on some planets and star fields.
However, the bigger the behemoths are, the more gentle their personalities are.
Everyone does not mess with each other, and occasionally exchanges some precious items.
The resources and information will not pose any threat to them at all.
As for those smaller predators, as Shannuya said, as long as it waved its tentacles at will, it would be frightened and flee hundreds of astronomical units.
With Shannuya's protection, this serious " "Guard", what does it exist for?
Pepe thought about this question for a long time and finally realized it.
Is this some kind of game?
It's like playing house.
Because, as a vassal race of Void Hunters, their life is too boring - they have all kinds of resources including spiritual energy, and there are no natural enemies that can threaten their safety.
Everyone wants to live such a boring life.
Find ways to please yourself.
Pepe's method was to tell stories, while his brother and his friends who had nowhere to vent their energy imitated the stupid ancients and played ridiculous war games, pretending that they were also great heroes like "Iron Hero" - no What else could they do?
At this moment, something seemed to have happened to the guards.
The elder brother was shouting loudly to gather his men.
He clearly saw Peipei but did not even say hello to her.
His eyes and eyebrows were all furrowed together, as if he was facing a powerful enemy and was worried. , just like dad.
"Humph, if you don't say hello to me, I won't say hello to you either!"
Pepe made a face at his brother and the young men in the guard from a distance, and jumped into "New Hope City".
Today's New Hope City is almost half occupied by the "Dream Control Bureau".
There are three-dimensional virtual light screens everywhere, projecting pictures extracted from the depths of Shannuya's thinking folds - it's like A pair of oil paintings that are constantly flowing but extremely viscous.
Experienced psychoanalysts can analyze Shannuya's most subtle thoughts and emotional reactions from these colorful paintings, and formulate different control plans to make them can please it better.
Of course, there are also some light screens that keep repeating the scene of Pepe and Shannuya telling stories just now, no matter every micro-expression on Pepe's face, or the changes in every synapse of Shannuya, All are documented.
This was standard operating procedure and had been this way for hundreds of years, and Pepe didn't think anything was wrong.
She was just surprised that the staff of the "Dream Control Bureau" today, like the guards, were in a panic as if facing a powerful enemy, as if something big had happened.
Some people looked at her with very strange eyes, as if she had caused a huge disaster, but when she went to ask, those people shook their heads and waved their hands, asking her to ask the director of the Dream Control Bureau-that is, her Dad Wren.
"dad!"
Pepe returned to the mission center of the Dream Control Bureau confused.
The atmosphere here was even more tense and serious.
His father's usually dark face was so gloomy that it could drip ink.
He pursed his thin lips and stared at the light screen.

A piece of scarlet runes jumping uncertainly, falling into long thoughts.
Pepe followed her father's line of sight and found that the line of runes read: "Special alert status!"
What does this mean?
Peppa was shocked.
She only knew that the last time Shannuya took them to jump into the star sea, they encountered a very severe four-dimensional storm.
It was Shannuya who took the initiative to tear off hundreds of tentacles and led the people to escape from the danger. , and that time, it was just a "level one alert state".
What kind of crisis can be called "special level"!
Peipei vaguely felt that this matter had something to do with herself.
Is it because I accepted the "Infinite Flower" presented by Shannuya?
Not so!
"dad?"
The girl cautiously called out again, "What does this mean?
Did we do something wrong?
Is it that flower?"
"No, you didn't do anything wrong, and the flower wasn't the most critical factor."
Dad finally looked away and glanced at her lightly, "You have nothing to do here.
Go back and have a good rest and let a few mentors help you recover your mental strength - there are very important things in the next few days.
We have to help Shannu Ya 'reborn'."
Perhaps her father spoke too easily and calmly, and Peipei didn't realize what "rebirth" meant for a moment.
But when she carefully chewed on the profound meaning contained in these two words, her face couldn't help but turn pale, and deep in her eyes, she couldn't help but feel pale.
Only tension and fear remain.
The reproduction method of Void Hunters is different from that of humans.
They adopt a method similar to "split reproduction".
When a Void Hunter reaches the end of its life, it will actively explode and send several tentacles flying far away.
These tentacles will have a certain Maybe become a new Void Hunter.
Therefore, the so-called "rebirth" also means "death".
But the normal lifespan of a void hunter is very long, even infinite by human standards.
Shannuya is still a "youth", no, he is still a "child" who doesn't understand anything.
Far, far away It’s far from time to explode!
They want to kill it!
Humans must take the initiative to kill void hunters!
Dad, dad, brother, and all the people who live in Shannuya, these relatives, friends and compatriots of Pepe, want to kill Shannuya!
"Why?"
Pepe blurted out, "Just because of a flower?"
"It's not the flower, it's the fact that it finally asked the question."
Dad calmly explained to her, "It finally asked you, why is it 'Shanua'?"
Pepe didn't understand at all: "What, so what?
What does this mean?"
"This shows that its mind has gradually matured, and its self-awareness has reached and exceeded the critical value."
Dad said, "It started to think about an extremely dangerous question, 'Who am I?'"
