The Centaur Galaxy, 4.2 light-years away from Earth, wanders in the infinite and quiet universe with a huge leaf-shaped spaceship filled with planetary debris and asteroid fragments.

It hovers like a lonely boat outside the solar system.

"If we can't find a place to stay, at the rate at which the number of Dune individuals grows, we will crash on the border of this galaxy in less than two hundred years."

A swarthy humanoid creature crawled to the very top of the ship on all fours, with two humps on its back, "Captain Gordon, you are responsible for the 1 billion people on board. ”

"The population has grown to 1 billion?" Captain Gordon observes various areas of the ship's hull through a celestial telescope, and the interior of the ship is completely sandy.

Red oval plants emerge from the surface of the dunes, and countless dune people scrub their mouths beside the plants.

"The Divine Fruit Seed is developing very well, and the Mother Divine Fruit is normally energized, don't you see that the leaf boat is larger than fifty years ago, you are too nervous Virgil Captain."

The leaf boat that the Dune people ride on is originally just a leaf, which grows from the skin of the mother fruit in the center, and acts like a protective umbrella to shield the mother body from cosmic rays and absorb dust particles, and they complement and nourish each other.

After the changes of the universe and the planets, its body surface is sandy, but its size is constantly growing, and life has been bred several times inside, and life has experienced several withering.

Until it completely curls into a spaceship that can shelter from the wind and rain, and then gives birth to new life, which is extremely adapted to this sandy environment, calling itself the Dune people.

Virgil's first mate rolled his eyes, and he was a hundred unhappy with Gordon in his heart: "As the captain, you have to be responsible for your people, not let us drift like this!" ”

Gordon's skin shone like metal armor, and his physique was on par with Virgil: "Please, Virgil, it's been hundreds of years, and you still have a grudge against me as a captain?" ”

"You were just lucky enough to absorb enough energy from the Mother Divine Fruit and be the first to be born in the Leaf Boat." Virgil fiddled with the interface on the leaf ship's work compartment.

"I was born a few years later than you, and according to the rules of the sand dunes you set, I can only be a deputy, and the level of the guys born later will be lowered one by one."

Gordon's face is as long as a horse, and although his overall silhouette is ugly, his eyes are extremely resolute: "I was born first, and the rules I set are rules, there is no doubt about it, but I have been thinking about leading the Dune people to do something." ”

"But you've been thinking about it for hundreds of years." Virgil retrieved the inside of the leaf ship.

The Dune people stayed inside the ship and did nothing, ate a bite of the god fruit peel when they were hungry, fell asleep when they were sleepy, and fought together in a better mental state.

"The Divine Fruit has made the Dune Clan live longer, but if you look at our daily life, it's a pity that such a powerful body doesn't colonize, plunder, or dominate the universe."

As the supreme rulers of the Dune Clan, Gordon and Virgil live alone in the work pod, and only the two of them know that the Leaf Ship is a drifting ship, and the other billion people feel strongly that they live on a sand-covered planet.

Gordon sighed: "Listen, brother, we have had more than 10,000 conversations like this. ”

"So this time let it continue to accumulate in the conversation base?" Virgil gristled his nostrils angrily, "If this continues, we will wither on the leaf ship, and a race that cannot evolve without hope and crisis can only wait for death." ”

"I said I was thinking that going too far would kill the entire Dune civilization." Gordon looked old-fashioned, "Think about how many galaxies we've drifted around that can still exist, precisely because we chose silence, silence means stability, stability means hiding, hiding means safety." ”

"Safety means waiting to die." Virgil raised the barb in his hand and tapped on the control interface, "It's about to float into the next galaxy again, you look at the planets in the distance, I can't wait to hit my head into it." ”

Gordon then looked at it, and in the distance was a hot and fiery planet, and the leaf ship detector showed its surface temperature of 6000 °...... No wonder the leaf ship has a sharp increase in exhaust emissions, and it turned out to encounter a large star in this galaxy. ”

"Landing right there, maybe there's another life up there!" Virgil was pressed by Gordon, "I'd rather die than see species other than us." ”

Gordon pushed Virgil away, and he skillfully controlled the leaf ship away from the star, and several other planets appeared in the probe's range: "All revolving around the big star, it seems that it is the center of this galaxy." ”

Virgil was interested in exploring the planet: "Look below, there is a girl planet with a dust halo below, and there is also a link next to it, which must be pregnant with life!" ”

"What kind of life can there be on these giant gas planets?" Gordon turned the leaf ship slightly and found a round planet surrounded by blue and dotted with green and gray, "There is a huge solid bond on this planet, and this bond is not quite like the rest of the planet. ”

"Oh my God, it's the sea that's blue! The green ones are plants that resemble the Divine Fruit......" Virgil said angrily, "Do you think we can go up and play?" I was shaking just looking at my body, and this environment was extremely unsuitable for us. ”

Gordon bared his front teeth and smiled, finally abandoning his previous calmness: "The detector analyzed the difference between that link and the structure of the surface itself, which fully shows that there is intelligent life on this planet, and it is those intelligent life that create this long, curved bond, do you know what I mean?" ”

"There is life! Then let's go straight to it. Virgil felt Gordon's interest in the planet, "No matter how bad the environment is, I will lead the Dune Warriors to victory in one fell swoop." ”

"To rush is to perish!" Gordon pressed Virgil and thought in his heart, "Do you know this planet?" ”

"I don't know, but we have 1 billion people!" Virgil did not admit defeat, "Our warriors are strong! ”

Gordon raised his barb and said, "You don't understand, how to ensure that there are no 1 billion people below, how to ensure that the warriors below are not stronger than us!" ”

"This ...... I feel like we're inherently strong. Virgil lowered his head and spoke no longer strongly, "Are we going to drift away from this galaxy again and do nothing?" ”

Gordon shook his head, this time unexpectedly determined: "In the past, we were not sure about the form of life on the planet, but the structure of this bond makes me sure that they are at least a species that survives purely on strength, which is good news for us, because we do have advantages in this regard." ”

"Talking so much, I can't get on it at all!" Virgil hated Gordon, "I thought it was so big enough to hold a billion people." ”

"I decided to choose a clansman to fall on this planet with a signaling device." Gordon was confident, "I need to win, not take risks, and as you said, I'm responsible for a billion people." ”
