Once upon a time, the "New City of Hope" behind Shannuya was a bustling and brightly lit bustling city, where countless residents thrived and lived from generation to generation. .
However, as most of the residents moved to live on nearby starships, the town looked spacious and desolate. Up to now, only some people who are closely related to Shannuya will live here, such as the "Dream Control Bureau" Staff, and... guards.
Yes, the "Guards", a very ridiculous organization, as soon as Pepe approached the town, he saw hundreds of warriors in armor practicing. They were commanded by Pepe's brother Recky, one by one waving shiny The weapon looks like an ancient cold weapon, but it possesses all kinds of incredible supernatural powers, it can even tear space, and it can also remotely control the powerful unmanned battle shuttle, which surrounds the body like thousands of shooting stars. It looks extremely majestic. But that's just what it looks like.
To be honest, Pepe has never understood the meaning of the existence of the "Guard". In theory, the so-called "Guard" is an organization that protects everyone, right? The problem is that the golden combination of human beings and void hunters has traveled in the star sea for thousands of years without encountering any opponents! Yes, on some planets and star fields, there are behemoths such as "Hill Cancer" that can compete with void hunters, but the more behemoths, the gentler their personalities. The resources and information provided will not pose any threat to them at all.
And those smaller predators, as Shannuya said, as long as its tentacles waved at will, they would be scared to escape hundreds of astronomical units. With Shannuya's protection, this serious " "Guard", what is it for
Pepe thought about this question for a long time, and finally realized it.
This is some kind of game, right
It's like playing house.
Because, as a vassal race of Void Hunters, life is too boring. All kinds of resources, including psionic power, are available, and there are no natural enemies that can threaten their safety. Such a boring life, everyone must find ways to overcome it. Please yourself.
Pepe's way is to tell stories, and his brother and his friends who have nowhere to vent their energy, just imitate the stupid ancients and play ridiculous war games, pretending that they are also great heroes like "Tiexiong" , what else can they do
At this moment, the guards seem to have encountered something. The elder brother is yelling loudly to gather his subordinates. He obviously didn't say hello to her when he saw Pepe. His eyes and eyebrows were all wrinkled together, as if he was facing an enemy and he was worried. , Just like my father.
"Hmph, if you don't say hello to me, I won't say hello to you either!"
Pepe made a funny face at her brother and the young guards from a distance, and jumped into the "New Hope City".
The current New Hope City is almost half occupied by the "Dream Control Bureau". There are three-dimensional virtual light curtains everywhere, projecting images extracted from the depths of Shannuya's thinking folds. A constantly flowing but extremely viscous oil painting. Experienced psychoanalysts can analyze Shannuya's most subtle thinking and emotional reactions from these colorful scrolls, and draw up different control schemes so that they can be better. please it well.
Of course, on some light curtains, the picture of Pepe and Shannuya telling a story just now is repeated continuously. No matter every micro expression on Pepe’s face or the change of every synapse of Shannuya, are all documented.
This is standard operating procedure, it has been like this for hundreds of years, and Pepe doesn't think there is anything wrong.
She was just surprised that the staff of the "Dream Control Bureau" today, like the guards, panicked as if they were facing a big enemy, as if something big had happened.
Some people looked at her with very strange eyes, as if she caused a catastrophe, but when she asked, those people shook their heads and waved their hands again and again, asking her to ask the director of the Dreamland Control Bureau, her father Lei kindness.
"dad!"
Pepe returned to the mission center of the Dreamland Control Bureau with a confused head. The atmosphere here was more tense and serious. His father's usually dark face was so gloomy that he could drip ink. He pursed his thin lips and stared at the light curtain. A piece of jumping scarlet runes fell into long-term thinking.
Pepe followed her father's line of sight and found that the line of runes read: "Super alert state!"
What does it mean
Pepe was taken aback. She only knew that the last time Shannuya took them to jump in the star sea, she encountered a very powerful four-dimensional storm, and it was Shannuya who took the initiative to tear off hundreds of tentacles before leading them out of danger. , and that time, it was only a "first-level alert state". What kind of crisis can be called a "special level"!
Pepe faintly felt that this matter had something to do with her.
Is it because I accepted the "Infinity Flower" presented by Shannuya? Not so!
"dad?"
The girl called again cautiously, "What does this mean? Did we do something wrong? Yes, is it that flower?"
"No, you didn't do anything wrong, and the flower wasn't the most important factor."
Dad finally looked away and glanced at her lightly, "It's none of your business here, go back and have a good rest, let a few mentors help you recover your mental strength, there are very important things in the next few days, we have to help Shannuya" Reborn'."
Perhaps it was because her father said it too easily and calmly. Peipei didn't realize what the meaning of "rebirth" meant for a while, but when she carefully chewed the deep meaning contained in these two words, her face turned pale, and the depths of her eyes were full of tears. Only nervousness and fear remained.
The Void Hunter's reproduction method is different from that of humans. They adopt a method similar to "split reproduction". When a Void Hunter is at the end of its life, it will actively explode and blow a few tentacles far away. These tentacles have certain May become the 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 It's far from the time to explode!
They are going to kill it!
Humans must take the initiative to kill the Void Hunter!
Dad, dad and brother, and all the people living on Shannuya, these relatives, friends and compatriots of Pepe, want to kill Shannuya!
"why?"
Pepe blurted out, "Just because of a flower?"
"It's not about the flower, but it finally asked that question."
Dad calmly explained to her, "It finally asked you, why is it 'Sannuya'?"
Pepe didn't understand at all: "So, so what? What can this explain!"
"This shows that its mind is gradually maturing, and the degree of cohesion of self-awareness has touched and exceeded the critical value."
"It started thinking a very dangerous question, 'Who am I,'" Dad said.
