The pale golden light fills a blank world and, like drawing a picture roll, captures the story of the last cosmic age before your eyes.

Standing in a vast and magnificent square, in the middle of a moving crowd, breathing a completely different air from the Earth, watching the sky fly with illusory "paper pieces”, everything here is like a dream.

In fact, this is the dream.

A dream more distant than time.

The ark reached out and gently removed a thin piece of "paper" from the air.

This seems to be a propaganda tool made of some sort of automated degradable material that presents today's highlights on that translucent interface.

[The invincible Imperial Fleet receives and pays Sunset Star Zone, five years of civil war is over! Marshal Saynes, triumph!

There was a glimmer of expression on the face of the ark.

In that case, the time should now be shortly after General Reinhardt's death, when the Imperial fleet had just destroyed the rebels' last line of defence. As a result, the insurgency moved brightly underground and began attempting to dismantle the fortress from within.

Beyond that, with the sudden rise of the forces of the fleet, those forces that were rapidly assembled against the rebels were beginning to devour the empire itself like an uncontrolled tumor.

All of a sudden, the ark has some understanding of what the observer said and what he said.

However, he is still somewhat surprised that General Reinhardt was suppressed by the fact that he had promoted his superior. In this five-year war, there must still be many stories he doesn't know...

Looking at the “newspaper” in his hand, Chen Yushan asked curiously.

“Who's General Saynes? ”

“I don't know much about the worldview of the game," he said. ”I sent the film into the air gently, watching it disappear into transparent bubbles, and the ark laughed and said," Come on, I'll show you the world. ”

The world is vast.

If it's a sightseeing tour, I'm afraid it won't last forever.

There are bustling business districts, sweeping farmland, and even artificial landscapes of mountains and rivers. And unless you're standing on a space station or looking down on a spaceship, you can't see it's a circle.

Since she came here with a tourist attitude, in order to give Chen Yushan the most intuitive view of the world, the ark took her directly to the center tower of the section on the anti-gravity track train.

This is the gateway to the world of the average Coffee Man and is a vital part of the entire Imperial Transportation Hub.

It is also one of the few places in each section that overlooks the entire world.

Standing next to the center tower landing window, through the glass that weakened the starlight, Chen Yushan's eyes couldn't help but look out the window at the vast view. The bright eyes opened.

After a while, she spoke with emotion.

“Beautiful...”

Standing beside her, the ark nodded.

But in addition to his emotions, his voice bore a little bit of regret.

“Yeah… like a miracle. ”

The energy harvesting tower, which extends inward toward the center, opens a film like a blade, like a tall conifer forest, fluctuating with the fluctuations of the solar wind. That shaky film is like seagrass floating in the deep ocean, trying to harness the energy of stars and transform them into forms of energy that provide the world with endless energy.

There is no need for nuclear power plants here, or anything as backward as fusion stacks.

The whole star is their core, and without intermediaries to earn the difference in energy conversion efficiency, as long as the life of the star doesn't end, their stove won't stop. Whether it's anti-matter or zero-point energy, it's going to be dark in front of this massive energy -- a source of energy that no artifact can compare to.

There is also no need for sunrise or sunset here, which can be day or night for 24 hours. People who live here do not rely on day and night turnover, but use a standard clock to determine if the day is over and if they should go to bed.

Not only that, but with the central temperature control system, there will never be any heat build-up or other major urban diseases, whether walking in the middle of poetic farmland or invisible buildings, the temperature will always be on a horizon that makes people feel most comfortable here, and the light will never be dazzling.

Although the entire world had been viewed by the Ark the previous time, he could not help but feel sad when he saw it all again.

It is the result of five centuries of wisdom and hard work that have united a higher civilization.

Imagine how hard it took those engineers to build this eternal utopia.

They created a paradise in the true sense.

Though I destroyed it myself...

After coming down from the center tower, the Ark took Chen Yushan on a tour of the commercial streets that are said to satisfy all shopping needs, as well as the Imperial Park, which is said to be “scenic” from more than a dozen planets.

Throughout the journey, the schoolsister very rarely showed a very different side than usual, looking excitedly east and west.

“It's amazing, is this really AI-generated? ”

The ark nodded down.

It's not a lie, in a sense.

Looking back toward the ark, Chen Yushan asked excitedly.

“Do you think our future will be like this? ”

Ark: “I don't know… maybe wait a dozen centuries to do it. ”

Find a galaxy with a large number of planets, then tear the planets apart with a bomb with a name that sounds really cool, and then build a circle along the livable zone with some kind of science-fiction space engineering equipment...

But then again, the cultural and moral values of each civilization are different, and the development trajectory does not necessarily have to follow the same model of so-called "higher civilization”.

Compared to the Coke Empire, the Ark feels that Earth's civilization should belong somewhat to the extroverted. Not only will they send "postcards”, optimistically believing that the universe is not alone, but they will also be keen to study how to use backward chemical thrusters to travel outside the home planet.

For civilizations like this, perhaps more enthusiastic about expanding their boundaries than time-consuming mega-engineering projects like the Ring World.

At first glance, Earth's civilization still has many advantages over this superficially prosperous, but actually deeply convoluted, coffee and blue civilization.

Of course, it's too early to say this. After all, there are no more advantages for young people. Some of the words appear to be more convincing later.

“A dozen centuries later… it seems we can only see it in the game. ”

When she heard this sentiment, the Ark laughed and did not speak.

What else?

Can you live to that point?

Isn't that an old monster?

After a lap, the two returned to the original park.

Looking at the vehicle that was not far away in the air, Chen Yushan suddenly laughed.

“I feel I've learned a little bit about the whole game, although the main line feels a little thin and the battle system doesn't see it... but on the other hand, everything here is like a whole new world, I'm sure it should attract the attention of a lot of players who enjoy exploring it. ”

“I don't need a lot of people, as long as there are enough players to keep my experiment going," the Ark said. Around... 100,000 people. It doesn't matter if it's better or less. ”

Chen Yushan said with a smile: “This is the game of Star Sky Technology Operation and Maintenance. Stop talking about 100,000 people. I don't think even a million people are talking. Let's make a bet, I bet this game will sell once it goes live! Daily life must not be less than a million. ”

Ark: “… I never bet in areas I'm not good at. ”

Chen Yushan glanced at him helplessly and mumbled.

“That's boring. Can't you just give me one chance to beat you? ”

When he heard that, Ark suddenly laughed embarrassingly.

Just kidding.

Is he the kind of person who can easily reveal a blossom?

Does not exist.

At this moment, Chen Yushan suddenly thought of something and said with curiosity.

“By the way, where are your ‘round teams’? Where were they tested? Can you show me? ”

“The world is actually just finished, don't look at how I know the world, it's actually the first time I've been here.” Of course, in saying this, the Ark adds to its heart that it is here fifty years later.

Although there was no change here at the time, or here at the present time, it's just that.

“So now we're the only two living people in the world? ”

I don't know if it's a delusion, the ark always feels, and when I say this again, I feel like I'm a little happy or excited.

I don't really understand what excites me about this stuff, but the ark nodded.

“You could say that. ”

“… so good. ”

Suddenly I was saddened, but I don't know why. At this time, Chen Yushan, who was still active, suddenly became a little embarrassed.

“Hello...”

“What's wrong now? ”

“What do you mean, what's wrong... Forget it, I won't argue with you about this,” she muttered dissatisfied, "Do you feel...”

“Feel what? ”

“... do you feel like we're on a date? ”

Just moments after saying this, Chen Yushan felt his heart rate was accelerating. Even she was frightened and threw herself a straight ball.

However, the Ark responded unexpectedly.

After a moment of serious reflection, he suddenly frowned.

“Did you? ”

Seeing the Ark boat did not get at all, Chen Yushan first slightly stunned, and then hurriedly stamped his foot.

“Why not? ”

"“ If you're dating, you'll have to buy something and watch a movie, "said Ark Khan. ”

Chen Yushan: “Go! ”

“… where to go? ”

“Go shopping! ”

“I don't have any money. ”

“I pay! ”

“No, I mean... we don't have any money,” the ark said a little embarrassed, "or it should be a credit point. ”

You can't use RMB, can you?

Everything else in the world, except rail transport and posters, requires credit points.

The air is slightly awkward.

Looking at the expression and action, Chen Yushan suddenly stuck, the ark slightly stunned.

This is…

That's off the line?

Not at all.
