It was a huge capital city, not the steel and iron bones commonly seen in the interstellar world, but a streamlined interstellar capital city with countless light tracks running through it. This capital is harmoniously and ingeniously integrated with nature. Giant trees can be seen everywhere towering into the sky and hanging down thousands of green silk ribbons.
There are wooden houses on giant trees, and there are tall villas beside clear streams. They are built with unknown materials, but most of them are white, light green, and light brown tones that blend with the earth.
There are also towering high-rise buildings. The shape is entwined with the surrounding giant trees. It is not obtrusive, but it also has a bit of metal and glass luster, but it does not make people feel a trace of metal coldness. It has a different kind of warmth when it reflects the sun.
Hill, that is, the leading young man with black and brown short hair not long ago, brought Mute and Noah to the top floor of the largest white building intertwined with towering giant trees in the center of the capital.
The top floor of the building is a huge meeting place. There is a huge round table in the center of the meeting place. The surrounding area seems to be empty. From the center to the surrounding area, it gradually becomes higher and presents an arc, but as long as you press the button, countless gentle slopes around it will emerge. Suspended Light Chair.
The roof is transparent, and the sun shines warmly on the spacious auditorium. When Mutt entered the auditorium under the leadership of Hill, he saw dozens of people sitting at the huge round table. The faces of those people were either young or middle-aged, and one or two showed old faces. of.
A huge light curtain is suspended above the round table, which shows the white spaceships in the starry sky outside the earth and the huge and powerful blue-black flagship in comparison.
"These are our current elders."
Hill said to Mutter.
Before coming, he roughly explained to Mutt that Jia's internal affairs are now a parliamentary system, and all affairs are discussed and decided by the elders at the meeting. The election of the elders is not determined by their strength, but by their contribution to the earth. Those who can become elders are those who have made considerable contributions recognized by everyone in their long lives.
Among the current elders, almost all of them are Jia whose actual age is more than three hundred years old. The reason why the face looks a little particularly young is because Jia's power is strong or weak. The strong ones will awaken their power when they are young and will not grow old, but there are also some weak ones who will only awaken their power when they are almost old. .
Dozens of mental powers from different people slowly probed over and made contact with Mute.
Although many people appeared to be very messy, Mutt didn't feel uncomfortable, perhaps because these forces were very warm. Although many people showed surprise in their emotions, he could feel the soft kindness in them.
That made him feel a little uneasy.
One of them stood up. It was a middle-aged man with a thick beard around his chin. His tall and strong body made him look quite thick, and his face was also very rough. But he looked The gaze looking at Mute is as gentle as the sunlight shining in from the transparent roof at the moment.
"Welcome back, Professor Seema's child."
He smiled, revealing his white teeth in his brown lips.
"You are exactly as described by your father."
"Why do you know me?"
Mut couldn't help asking.
"And why does my image..."
The current chairman of Jia laughed again, answering Mutt's doubts.
After the earth was destroyed that year, a part of Jia that was protected by the earth survived, and Mutt's father and mother, Sima and his wife became the leaders of the surviving Jia.
They led the surviving Jia to the bases on the moon, Mars and Saturn, allowing the Jia to survive tenaciously.
After ensuring survivability, several years later, Professor Seema proposed a huge plan to revive the earth. Since then, he has been leading Jia to fight for this ideal, and he has dedicated all his strength and even life to it until death.
Although Sima and his wife died one after another, their will has been inherited. Generations of Jia devoted themselves to this great plan and created a miracle in 20,000 years. As the pioneers of this plan and the leaders of the first generation of Jia at that time, Xima and his wife are remembered by all Jia.
The images of their life and work have been preserved, as the data of the great men in history, for all gals to watch, and to educate young gals and young children.
"Everyone here grew up watching the images of Professor Seema and his wife."
Jia's chairman laughed.
"Looking at those images, we can clearly feel our ancestors' hardships, unyielding, and love for the earth during that period of history. We remember that painful history, and in order to educate our descendants to cherish what we have now. everything you have."
Having said that, he paused and coughed lightly.
"How should I put it, Professor Seema is indeed very... very worthy of our respect, but it's just a bit too... cough, cough cough, what." He coughed a few more times and said, "In the video, no matter when, no matter what you are doing What, he always likes to mention his children, and he likes to catch people saying how cute and smart his children are... "
Mute was a little moved when he heard it, but at the moment when the chairman of the meeting said this, he was a little embarrassed.
"Cough, I like to turn on the projection to show others the image of my child... So, cough, you should know why we all know you."
The boy is no longer embarrassed, but embarrassing.
"Professor Seema said that when those powerful children insisted on staying on the earth to live and die with them, he forced them to leave the earth to escape-he told them at that time that they had to escape and help themselves The Jia who was killed by humans took revenge, so they can only take revenge on humans if they escape from the earth."
In fact, everyone understands that when Professor Seema said that, he didn't really want those gals to take revenge on humans, he just wanted to force them to escape and use an excuse to force them to live.
Later, when they came out from the ruined earth to go to the moon base, Professor Seema and the others did not find those gals who should have escaped from the earth. Professor Seema was very worried whether they really sneaked into the human fleet desperately to attack humans. revenge.
For the next hundred years or so, he kept saying it.
Those kids will come back.
Children of Earth, no matter how far they are from home, they will return to Earth one day.
"Professor Seema always said this. He said that my child is the same. Humans took him away, but I believe that he is still alive."
"He and his wife have always believed in that."
"He's always saying, I believe he's alive and, one day, he's going to come back."
"He said, because the child was born on Earth."
"Before he died, he entrusted his wish to the living. He said that he hoped that they could replace his wife and wait until the return of his child..."
The thoughts of a father and a mother have been passed on across time.
Incomparably pure, believing that his child is still alive, and that his child will come back one day.
That belief is so vast.
One hundred years, one thousand years, tens of thousands of years, it has been passed down like this.
Over time, it has become an immortal legend.
[One day, the children of the earth will return from the universe.]
All Gaga have heard this immortal legend.
...
"So, Mutt, you're not alone."
Jia's chairman of the conference disappeared in place, and the next second, he appeared in front of the young man who pursed his lips and said nothing.
He stretched out his hand and embraced the child in his arms. At this moment, the rough face showed only gentleness towards the child in his arms.
"No matter how long it has been, someone will say 'Welcome home' to you, your parents are here, in the hearts of all of us, in the ground beneath your feet."
His voice was low, but extremely soft, like the echoes of the sea lapping on the waves.
"So, my child, you don't need to be sad, and you won't be alone, because they will always be by your side."
"… Um."
The face of the boy who was embraced by Jia's chairman was buried in the man's chest, and the expression on his face at the moment could not be seen, only his low humming and thick nasal voice could be heard.
Also, the slender and soft feeling that enveloped the conference hall was filled with a bit of sadness, with nostalgia and deep love for parents... those thoughts that made people feel extremely pitiful.
...
……………
After Mutt's mood calmed down, he told Ga's elders about them.
After the earth was destroyed in the first place, those who escaped from the earth when the nuclear bomb exploded because of their powerful power had no choice but to follow the human beings to leave the earth through the wormhole to the center of the universe, and what happened after that.
When they heard that those gals who were forced to follow the human beings could not find their way back to the earth, and finally sacrificed themselves to destroy the human way back to the earth, everyone sighed.
They also finally understood the reason why they have been waiting in full force for so many years, but they have never waited for human beings to come back.
Back then, the young Jia sacrificed his life, blocked the way for humans to return to the earth, and in a sense protected them and the earth for 20,000 years.
"Humans have been looking for the coordinates of the earth, but no one has ever found it."
Noah interjected.
Hill smiled and spoke.
"After the destruction of the earth, more than a thousand years later, we gathered the power of all Jia to build a huge protective shield."
That shield covers the entire solar system, it is the power of pure Ga, which can absorb all light waves and frequency signals, and isolate the power outside of Ga.
That is, it resembles an invisible shield. As long as this shield is still there, it will be extremely difficult for people outside to find the solar system or break into the solar system.
Hill added: "If it weren't for this space warp, it would be very difficult for you, even as Jia, to enter the solar system."
Noah was silent for a moment, and exchanged glances with Mute.
Mute nodded to him, turned to speak.
"Our companions are still in those three spaceships, those white spaceships...can you..."
"Well, sorry, we were negligent."
The chairman stood up and looked at Hill.
"Hill, you take a group of people to pick up our compatriots home."
"I'll go together."
said Noah.
"fair enough."
The chairman of the conference nodded and looked at Mutt.
"Mute, please stay here first, I have something to ask you about the humans in that battleship..."
After Hill and Noah who greeted the white spaceship left, the chairman of the meeting continued.
"Actually, Mutt, before meeting you, we received a communication signal from that large warship."
Mutt looked up in astonishment.
The major general has woken up
He thought, feeling a little confused for a while.
"The ones in that black battleship..." the chairman of the conference paused here, and he asked, "are they all human?"
Miute nodded and hummed lightly.
"Human..."
The chairman of the meeting repeated these words with indescribable complexity in his voice.
"Human beings are our enemies. It stands to reason that we should send warships to start the war now."
"Wait a minute, it's true that they are human beings, but they don't mean to go to war with the earth—I can assure you of that!"
Mut said nervously, "So, please don't attack human ships for now—"
"You know those humans?"
"...Yes." After a short silence, Mutt said, among the gals who could feel each other's emotions, he didn't need to lie, "After I woke up, I didn't have the power to protect myself for a long time, and it was the one above that Humans protect me..."
The boy lowered his eyelids, and his thin eyelashes cast light shadows on his cheeks.
He said softly, "He...is very important to me."
"yes."
The chairman of the meeting said, there was no sense of reproach in his voice, and he stretched out his hand to rub the head of the boy who bowed his head in front of him.
"Don't worry, we are not a war-loving race, and we are also unwilling to start a war lightly." He said, "Since he has protected you, we don't want to repay you. But the problem now is that we can't let these humans leave, and the earth The location was leaked."
He paused and continued.
"So, I have already talked with that human leader, and he agreed to leave his battleship, bring only a few people, and come to Earth to negotiate with us."
He smiled, "How should I put it... I still have some admiration for the behavior of this human leader."
He originally thought that the other party would not agree to this request. After all, staying in your own battleship is the safest thing. The human leader simply agreed to leave the battleship and go to the enemy's territory. This kind of courage and courage is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Mutt's pupils contracted forcefully.
"You said they were coming to Earth?"
"Yes."
"No! You can't let Major General... Well, those humans come to Earth!"
"Why, since the other party is not afraid to come here..."
"No! You can't let them come! Although I don't know why... But I just have this feeling that human beings cannot come to the earth."
"Mute." The chairman of the conference sighed, "I know that you watched humans destroy the earth with your own eyes, and I also understand that you are unwilling to let humans return to the earth, but now that we have reached this point, our negotiations with humans are Something that must be done."
He said, "Besides, during the time I've been talking with you, the leader of the humans has almost arrived here. We invited him to come, and it is impossible to force them to leave again without reason."
The boy bit his lower lip and said nothing, after all, no matter what he said now, it would be of no avail.
He couldn't explain why, but he had a bad feeling. It was an indescribable feeling... He always felt that once humans entered the earth, bad things would happen.
"Chairman, the 'humans' have arrived, a total of seven people."
"Understood, bring them in."
Soon, in the wide conference hall, the sound of steady footsteps sounded.
The dark boots stepped on the brown wooden floor, making a dull sound, step by step, from far to near.
The elders of Jia who were sitting at the round table subconsciously cast their gazes at the entrance of the hall, and at that glance, everyone was instinctively taken aback.
Snow-skinned star eyes, phoenix eyes and thin lips, jet-black hair rustling from the side cheeks like velvet, and the narrow corners of the eyes.
The dark blue pupils seem to carry the brilliance of the stars and the sea, even the sunlight cannot compare to the magnificence, and the night cannot compare to the depth, with fine snowflakes, revealing the cold light of glaciers and sharp blades.
The white cloak fluttered softly backwards with his steps, and the gold ornaments around his shoulders collided with each other, making a crisp sound, shining brightly in the sunlight.
Tall and tall, the serious military uniform with black background and gold pattern wraps that tall body, further highlighting the golden ratio of the perfect line of wide shoulders and narrow waist. The long legs wrapped in pitch-black trousers at the bottom were strong and powerful when they stepped forward, stepping on the shiny boots and walking steadily forward——
The leader of mankind came bathed in the sun, and for a moment it looked like a beautiful painting that people couldn't take their eyes off.
All the ladies who looked over were stunned for a moment, feeling extremely complicated for a while.
In their minds, those hateful and ugly human leaders must also be disgusting. But looking at it now, this human being is... actually... almost indescribable... indescribably beautiful.
To be honest, they really haven't seen anyone more beautiful than this human being.
In this eerie silence, Jia's chairman coughed and broke the silence.
"Human leader, welcome to your arrival."
He looked at the handsome human leader and said, "I think you should understand the purpose of our negotiations—we don't welcome humans back to Earth, so we don't want the location of Earth to be leaked."
After entering the hall, Troll never looked at Mutt, as if he didn't see Mutt's existence at all.
At this moment, he and Jia's chairman looked at each other for a moment.
"I won't promise."
he said dryly.
The chairman of the meeting stared, and his eyes darkened.
"Human leader, you should know where you are. Maybe humans have hundreds or even thousands of times our army and powerful firepower, but at this moment, only you are here, and you only have one battleship."
His voice was also low, with an inexplicable pressure.
The chilling blue gleam in his pupils began to flicker.
"We Jia are unwilling to do unnecessary killings, but in order to protect the secrets of the earth, we can only get rid of you and your battleship. For example, right here now-kill you."
Almost at the moment when the words fell, the pupils of all the Jia sitting around the round table flashed blue light.
The invisible air flow surged up, like a huge wave that suddenly churned up, roaring and rushing towards all the humans on the opposite side with a terrible oppressive aura—
"and many more!"
Someone yelled hastily.
A blue light flashed, and the boy appeared out of thin air between the two confronting people.
He stood between the confronting Jia and human beings, with his back to the people behind him, facing his compatriots, he opened his arms, and a transparent light shield of blue light appeared in front of him, blocking the attacking human beings. huge energy.
Huge power whizzed past him, and the invisible air current made his forehead hair fly back.
"Wait a minute, what he said didn't mean to start a war with you."
Mut said sharply, "He just—"
"As soon as I die, the battleship will immediately forcibly activate the transition function."
A cold voice from behind him forcibly interrupted Mutt's words.
"There is a 68.23% chance that the transition will be successful. You should understand what will happen after that."
Troll's words made Mute froze in place.
On the other hand, Troll continued to stare blankly at the fellows on the opposite side, and the huge oppressive force that gathered the spiritual power of the fellows seemed nothing to him.
The chairman of the conference frowned tightly, and his pupils flashing blue light stared deeply at the young human leader opposite.
"What the hell are you trying to do?"
His voice was cold.
He knew what it would mean once the position of the earth was revealed.
Humans will flock to it.
Jia will have to fall into a war, which is an endless war that he dare not imagine. Jia, who loves life, will inevitably have his hands stained with blood—and similarly, the blood of countless of their compatriots will also be spilled on the earth.
That is the cruelty of war.
His chest tightened irresistibly just thinking of the terrible future of endless wars dragging all his people into the dark abyss.
He looked at the human being solemnly, and said, "What is your purpose?"
Mutt stood there quietly, with his arms outstretched to protect the person behind him.
He listened to the conversation between the chairman of Jia in front of him and the person behind him, and slowly lowered his head, the shadow of slender eyelashes covering his eyes.
His lips tightened little by little. At this moment, he didn't know what to say, and he didn't know whether to talk to his compatriots or the person behind him.
It was like being caught between two walls, and there was an indescribable emotion deep in his chest, which made his chest feel uncomfortable.
Because of the emotional confusion, the boy failed to notice the person who suddenly stepped forward and walked behind him.
"What is your purpose in coming here?"
Just when the chairman of the conference said these words, a hand suddenly reached out from behind and held his left hand.
Mutter instinctively looked back.
He saw the jet-black hair, like velvet in the night, passing before his eyes.
At some point, the man standing behind him held his left hand, lifted it up, bent down, and kissed the back of his hand.
Then, the man raised his head, and his slightly narrowed phoenix eyes met his blank gaze.
Troll said, "Come and propose."
what is your purpose
Proposal.
Jia's chairman and other elders: "????"
All of you, who were still surrounded by a solemn atmosphere a second ago, were collectively stunned at this moment.
