The two-hour presentation finally came to an end.

I loosened my tie and strode out of the long-obscure Star Travel University.

Since I became a researcher in quantum mechanics, I have not set foot in such a dilapidated university.

Star Travel University, which lacks even basic scientific and technological facilities such as holographic image equipment......

It's hard to imagine how the students here understand the universe.

Half a month ago, An Yanke undertook this speech for me.

He was well aware of my boredom with public speaking, but because of his close friendship with the president of the university, he finally complied with his repeated requests.

The university is located in Jihe City, the only city on Earth that hosts aliens.

With its unique natural environment, Jihe City has attracted millions of interstellar travelers in just 20 years.

Not so much an interstellar traveler...... They are more like refugees.

Especially in recent years, more and more interstellar travelers have fled to this beautiful planet.

These people are all from the same exoplanet, WG-μ.

WG-μ Star - or Winter Tomb Ugly Star, and a twin brother SJ-ß Star - Chun Xuan (sù) B Star.

They form a perfect binary system, and the huge gravitational field that they orbit changes the path of light.

In the infinite darkness, the illusions of several stars are reflected in the reverse ether – the suffocating phenomenon of "gravitational lensing" in the starry sky.

Seven years ago, in my mind, there was only one true interstellar traveler on this planet - she was not only very beautiful, but also very seeing; The other two are hybrids of Earthlings and Wintergraves—I used to be friends with them.

When I stepped out of my own small world, I realized that while we were exploring the unknown universe, intelligent life that had evolved to be more perfect was also doing the same thing.

Due to the influx of these interstellar travelers, Jihe City has gradually evolved into the poorest city in the world in just a few years.

Most of the interstellar travelers who came here retained their habits in the Winter Grave.

They have evolved to the point where they are amazed by the earthlings, and as a result, they are quite disdainful of the daily life of the earthlings.

The Winter Grave Stars are nocturnal, unproductive, obsessed with strange worship rituals.

They have a gentle personality and never cause trouble, but they never participate in work and labor.

Out of a humanitarian spirit, the government of Jihe City did not want these people to starve to death in this prosperous city, and provided them with free relief in desperation.

The down-and-out alien visitors are grateful for this, and their affection for the city grows deeper.

However, it is more difficult to get them to change their loose nature than to ascend to the sky.

The government had tried to convince them to work and use their wisdom far beyond the earthlings to bring prosperity to the city.

The result is not surprising - the Winter Grave people are still going their own way, living a lazy and inactive life.

Later, these lazy bones who did not pay taxes naturally became a thorn in the side of the indigenous people and the government.

Jihe City was once plagued by riots and conflicts, but it could not hurt these alien visitors with strange abilities in the slightest.

For a variety of reasons, a large-scale war never took place.

Later, the Winter Grave Star people occupied an absolute numerical advantage in Jihe City.

Soon after, the city's economy gradually declined.

Most of the life-loving natives have accepted reality and given up on the idea of expelling these alien visitors.

They packed their bags and left their homes.

Only the natives who were too poor to afford to leave, or the salted fish who had no hope of life, remained.
