Chapter 281: Welcome (2-in-1 Grand Chapter, Ask for a Monthly Pass!)
Ivan felt himself shuttling through a huge square, and although he couldn't look around closely, he had this feeling when he sat in the car, which was the instinct of an experienced astronaut and military man.
The car drove in one direction for more than ten minutes, and according to the speed of the car, he was expected to be about 5 kilometers away from the Qianjian, but he still hadn't reached the end yet. Ivan was not in a hurry, he sat quietly, secretly guessing in his heart who he would meet next, although he already had the answer in his heart, but at this moment he was still looking forward to the meeting between the two sides.
Moving on, after a few more minutes, a soft light not far away caught Ivan's attention, but due to the distance, he couldn't see what this light was for a while, and it wasn't until a few dozen seconds later that he realized that this light was actually a strange door.
The gate was very tall, and the door was surrounded by intricate patterns, and since Ivan couldn't tell what they depicted as he was driving, his attention was more focused on the center of the gate.
Unlike ordinary doors, the front of this door was movable, like a vast starry sky shining with charming starlight, and for a moment, Ivan even felt that this was not a door, but a shrunken universe, which was spread out in front of him from three dimensions to two dimensions.
The car drove to the door in a blink of an eye, but the speed did not decrease at all, just when Ivan felt strange, the car rushed directly towards the center of the gate, Ivan was suddenly startled, and his hands suddenly grabbed the handle of the car, and he was instantly ready for a collision.
But the collision did not come, when the car carrying Ivan came into contact with the gate, as if the door did not exist, Ivan looked at the car in disbelief, and drove directly through the gate as if through a virtual projection.
The moment he walked through the gate, Ivan's eyes flickered, and his body didn't feel anything at all. Just Ivan thought it strange about this. Guessing whether the door was a real or virtual projection, and at this moment, there was another light in front of him, and this time was very short, less than a third of a second, when he had completely passed through the door. Ivan was simply stunned by what he saw.
"My God!"
Ivan couldn't help but shout, and even when he crossed the gate just now, he just made a gesture of grasping the handle, which was enough to prove that Ivan's mentality was stable. But at this time, the qi in front of him completely subverted his imagination, and he couldn't imagine that there was such a scene behind the door.
Unobstructed views of grasslands, clear skies, soft sunlight, low hills, and large forests in the distance. And the blue lake .......
The breeze was blowing, the grass on the grassland was swaying in the wind, the trees were rustling, and although he was wearing a spacesuit, Ivan could still feel the fresh smell of nature in the air, looking at this qiē, Ivan was simply dumbfounded.
"This ...... Earth? This was the first thought that flashed through Ivan's mind, but he immediately denied the answer. The observant Ivan soon noticed that the grasslands, forests and earth were a little different. Many plants were quite different from what they normally saw, and it was absolutely impossible for him to suddenly return to Earth. Because they were obviously far away from the earth before, and more importantly, although the qiē here is as beautiful as in the painting, there is a very important thing that this place lacks, that is, there are no animals in the sky, such as birds in the forest and in the air, fish in the lake, cattle and sheep in the grassland, ....... There is no breath in the beauty.
The car was still moving forward, and due to the visual improvement caused by the surrounding environment, Ivan realized that the car he was sitting in was not actually driven by wheels, and the whole car was somewhat similar to the tools of an hovercraft, and the vehicle was floating on the ground. It's about a few centimeters off the ground.
However, this car is different from the hovercraft in that it does not have the kind of air that it ejects, and except for some slight mechanical sounds, the car is unusually quiet and very smooth during the ride.
The car carried Ivan forward, and he didn't know where the final destination was. Looking around, Ivan vaguely understood this place, he guessed that this should be similar to the ecological balance area on the spaceship, but the area here is far larger than the ecological balance circle inside the spaceship, and he really doesn't know how such a large space is opened up.
A glance at the meter on his wrist showed that the place was perfectly suitable for human life, and that the air here was better than many health resorts on earth in a way. But even so, Ivan had no intention of taking off his spacesuit helmet, because he didn't know what he would face next.
Passing through a small grassland, the vehicle headed towards the hills ahead, and when he turned over the hills, it suddenly opened up in front of him, a large lake appeared in front of him, and on one side of the lake was a dense forest, and in the forest and steppe, near the lake, Ivan actually saw several small cabins.
Yes, he would not be mistaken, it was indeed a small cabin inhabited by humans, like his forest hut in Novosibirsk, where Ivan used to spend a few days every summer in his free time, enjoying the feeling of being surrounded by nature.
"Looks like that's where I'm going." Seeing the cabin, Ivan guessed that his guess was correct, and the car quickly drove in front of one of the cabins, and then came to a steady stop, and just as the car stopped, the door of the cabin opened, and a man appeared in front of him.
"...... this?" Ivan was a little surprised, because he saw a little girl, yes, out of the cabin was actually a very beautiful little oriental girl.
"General Ivan, welcome to the Pluto base." The little girl was not surprised to see Ivan's surprised expression, and said to him with a smile.
"You say this is the Pluto base? I'm inside the base? ”
"That's right! It's a pity that there are no rewards. The little girl grinned, pointed to the door that had been opened, and said, "Since you are here, you are a guest, General Ivan, why don't you go in and sit down?" ”
"Of course!" Ivan cleaned up his complicated feelings, got out of the car, looked at the little girl and couldn't help asking, "Did you bring us in?" ”
"I can't tell you about this, if you want to know the answer, go straight in." The little girl tilted her head and smiled, a teasing expression in her eyes. Then he reminded Ivan that he didn't need to wear a spacesuit anymore, and that he should respect the host as a guest, at least when he came to visit, he should remove the spacesuit.
Ivan quickly agreed, and he was more curious about who he would see when he entered the cabin, and he felt a lot more relaxed when he took off his bulky spacesuit. At the same time, he took a deep breath of the air here, and as he imagined, the air was very fresh, with the fragrance of grass.
Guided by the little girl, Ivan entered the door of the cabin, and when he entered, he saw a scene that was no different from that on earth, just like an ordinary wooden house, the furnishings in the room were simple and functional.
To his surprise, there was no one else in the cabin. Whether it was the unobstructed living room or the kitchen on the left, there was no third person in sight except him and the little girl.
"You may be seated." The little girl entertained Ivan, who hesitated and sat down in a wooden chair in the living room, and then the little girl asked Ivan what to drink, tea or coffee.
"Tea, thank you." Ivan replied casually.
The little girl smiled and nodded, and just as Ivan thought that the little girl would go to the kitchen to make tea for herself, the little girl suddenly made an unimaginable gesture for him. I saw her left hand raised, and the cabinet near the kitchen suddenly opened. I don't know what kind of mechanical drive a tea set was thrown directly at their location, and the little girl didn't even look at it, her hands were as simple as picking up a teapot from the table, I saw her hands flying, the movement was amazing, and the movements of the little girl's hands could hardly be seen in Ivan's eyes. Only patches of afterimage were seen in the eye mask.
It only took a little more than a second before and after, and a whole set of tea sets appeared in front of Ivan, and what surprised him even more was that the placement of these tea sets was almost as if they had been carefully placed by professional waiters, both in terms of position and spacing, almost impeccable.
And. From beginning to end, Ivan didn't hear half of the collision of the tea set, you must know that the porcelain tea set will make a crisp sound as long as you touch it lightly, if it is not for the fact that he is not dazzled and hallucinating, Ivan will not believe what he sees.
After setting up the tea set, the little girl's hands were dazzling again, and when her movements stopped, the tea leaves and boiling water were ready one by one, and then she made a pot of tea for Ivan in an extremely standard posture, and only when the steaming tea was placed in front of him, and the little girl smiled and motioned for the guests to use tea, Ivan came back to his senses.
Ivan, who was calm on the surface, picked up a cup of tea and used the posture of drinking tea to hide his inner consternation. As a good astronaut and soldier, especially a general, Ivan was absolutely sure that the qiē he had just seen was completely real, and he also believed that what this ordinary-looking little girl had done was simply incredible.
That's right, it's incredible, because the other party's series of expressions are not human beings at all, Ivan is not an ordinary person, his identity and status are enough for him to know some information that ordinary people do not know, but even among these materials, Ivan can't find a human who can make such an action as a little girl, let alone exactly the same, even if he reaches half of the process, there is none.
Who is the other party? Who is this person who looks like a little girl? Is she friend or foe to herself, or to humanity? Ivan hesitated for a moment about the answer he had guessed before, because the little girl was so extraordinary that he couldn't help but think about it.
"What? Isn't tea delicious? Seeing that Ivan was holding the tea but not drinking it directly, but thoughtfully not knowing what he was thinking, the little girl asked with a puzzled expression.
Hurriedly took a sip, who thought that this sip was a little bigger, almost burning himself, Ivan finally swallowed this hot tea, and then nodded with a smile: "It's delicious, this tea is very good." ”
"Hehe, I'll just say, this is the dragon well before the rain, my parents are reluctant to drink it except for entertaining guests, how can it not be delicious." The little girl seemed to be very happy.
Ivan was stunned for a moment, Longjing before the rain? Mom and Dad? Don't......?
"Drink as much as you like, come, I'll pour you another glass." The little girl didn't wait for Ivan to come to her senses, picked up the teapot and filled his cup, and then looked at Ivan with a blank eye, as if he didn't stop after drinking unpleasantly.
Ivan is full of doubts, but at this time he can only continue to drink tea, the little girl seems to be very attentive, and also likes to watch Ivan drink tea, as long as he drinks the tea in the cup, she will continue to help him fill up, and continue to watch him drink with innocent eyes, this time it is bitter Ivan, after drinking a few glasses in a row, his stomach is a little swollen, just when he drank another cup hard, and the little girl filled him up, Ivan didn't know what to say.
"Have you arrived?" At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded, and it came from the doorway, it was a man's voice.
"Daddy is coming!" The little girl suddenly cheered, opened the door and said to the man who was about to enter the door: "I've been here once, I'm inviting guests to tea, Dad, General Ivan likes your pre-rain dragon well very much, isn't it a general?" ”
Speaking of this, the little girl turned her head to look at Ivan, who was still holding tea, with a smile in her eyes, but I don't know why Ivan felt a hint of teasing in this smile.
When someone came in the door, he glanced in the direction of the tea set at first glance, and then smiled and scolded the little girl: "You girl is joking with people again, right?" Alright, don't stay any longer, go to your mother's side, I'll let her come back early, and we're going to entertain guests today." ”
"yes, I see." The little girl nodded vigorously and jumped out the door.
After she left, the person who came said to Ivan apologetically: "Su Li's personality is getting more and more lively these days, I'm really sorry General Ivan, I can't leave for the time being with some work in my hands just now, let Su Li receive you for me, she didn't do anything, right?" ”
"No, no, the child is cute...... Ivan shook his head with a smile, although this little girl named Su Li did have some deliberate tricks, but anyway, he still had to be more generous in the face of his master, not to mention that now that the master has arrived, the main thing in his heart is to find out what is going on with this Pluto base.
When Ivan got up to meet the other party, and was about to ask about the identity of the other party, he was suddenly slightly stunned, because he found that the man standing in front of him seemed to have seen and dealt with.
"You...... Aren't you Su ...... Sue......? ”
"Although we haven't met directly, we are not strangers, remember that communication in the universe, right? I'm Su Yichen, General Ivan, and welcome to the Pluto base. Su Yichen smiled and stretched out his hand to the other party. (To be continued......)
