Hao Ren finally found Willy and Auro in an inn in the royal city: they were the illegitimate children of nobles from remote city-states and down-and-out scholars, so they were naturally not eligible to stay in the king's castle. Willy was taken aback when he saw Hao Ren and his party again, especially when he saw Vivian, the startled young man jumped up directly from his chair: "Ice Witch! ”

"That's what you call it," Vivien laughed, "and the people in the city were terrified of me. ”

"You're the Ice Witch," Willy subconsciously craned his neck and looked around cautiously: this was a cheap room in the inn, with only a rudimentary, thin wooden shack separating the room from the corridor outside, and he always felt that there were countless people outside listening to the movement here, because he knew that he was talking to the Ice Witch, and perhaps the king's knights were already guarding the door, "I said it when we first met, but you didn't admit it at the time...... And you didn't say that there was a fire witch in the world. ”

Lily scratched her hair and looked circled: "Actually, I just wanted to pretend to be a ...... at that time"

"Are you still afraid of the Ice Witch?" Hao Ren asked Willy with a smile, "You see, we do have the ability to plunge this world into a cold winter - we have completely repaired the Ancestor Furnace this time, and of course we can completely destroy it in turn." ”

"I'm afraid," Willy honestly admitted, perhaps his greatest courage is to admit that he doesn't have the courage, "but I don't think the Ice Witch is a bad person either." To be honest, I used to think that the Ice Witch was the demon who brought the world into winter, and my grandmother said that the first night of winter came. The Ice Witch will emerge from the ends of the world in a frozen tin chariot and blow cold winds into the Ancestral Furnace. Freeze the heart of the world altogether—and you've worked with the Ice Witch to fix it. It seems that the legends are not all true. ”

"Yes, the legends are not all true. Human beings do not grasp the truth, human beings only grasp the motivation to pursue the truth," Hao Ren patted Willy on the shoulder, then reached out and took out a few pieces of photo paper from his arms and handed them to the young man, "We are about to leave here, these things are gifts for you." ”

"It's ......" Willie took the pieces of paper puzzled, he had never seen such fine cardboard: crisp, smooth, and without a musty smell. And it's colorful, and there's an incredibly beautiful picture on it, it's like magic, "What are these?" ”

"Isn't it pretty?"

"Pretty ......?" Willy's tone ended with a question of uncertainty at the end, "It's beautiful, but I don't understand what it is." ”

"Forests, oceans, open skies, and stars." Hao Ren pointed to the picture on the photo paper, "This is left from your ancestors...... I found it in the library, and I printed it out. This is the world you once lived in. I've met a lot of people in this ark, but you're the only one who is still interested in these things. So these things are for you. ”

Willie hurriedly pushed the jammed paper back: "I can't take such a precious thing ......"

"It's enough to know that these things are precious," Hao Ren smiled and waved his hand, "I'm here to say goodbye to you." Send something by the way. Now that this is the end of the business, we should go back. Nolan. Prepare for delivery. ”

Willy subconsciously took a step forward, but a white light appeared out of thin air to block him. Hao Ren stood behind the white light and looked at the stunned old man Oro next to him: "Bachelor, go back and tell this child's father that it was Willy who brought the witch of Frost and Flame to the ancestral furnace, and the name Willy has been engraved in the depths of the ancestral furnace, and his castle governor has been a lifelong governor, and his achievements are not as good as a toe of his bastard son." ”

Master Oro smiled and bent slightly: "I will ask the king to write a letter to the governor to inform him of this in person, and this letter will be stamped with a royal seal and kept in the treasure vault of the Hearthcity forever. ”

This old man is also wilted and wilted!

The teleportation beam flashed away, and the next moment, Hao Ren and the others had returned to the bridge of the Giant Tortoise Rock Platform.

Elizabeth jumped down from her chair and happily welcomed Hao Ren, shouting about all kinds of boredom while waiting on the spaceship, and Nolan's hologram floated directly from not far away: "The situation of the ark has been figured out." ”

Hao Ren pressed the little devil's head to silence the little girl, and turned his head to look at the image above the console.

In the vast space, the Ark fleet has been completely eroded and transformed by the drone swarm, he saw that those huge ellipsoidal colonies were covered with silver light, the black heavy armor at the front of the spaceship had been stripped away, revealing the complex and outdated circuit system and mechanical structure inside, and a series of control devices newly installed by the engineering drones were shining in those ancient systems, like mercury in the dark slits. Until now, there are still swarms of aircraft wandering between the Arks, and those drones are checking the control sensitivity of each Ark and the fusion status of the "Infiltration Core Core" with the latter.

Although the drone swarm is Hao Ren's own troops, this scene still makes his scalp tingle:

It's like a swarm of termites eating and invading a sluggish beast.

"I've cracked the navigation systems of these Arks, but I found that they don't have a clear destination at all, so I simply turned off the original navigation of the Ark and let the drone swarm completely replace the 'nerves' of these ships with the Osmotic Core Core," Nolan said next to him, "In addition, I have also done some emergency repairs to the faster-than-light engines of several of these ships, and now they are ready to accelerate, you can let them go wherever you want - but it's best not to toss too much, these old machines can't withstand a few acceleration and decelerations." ”

"These ships need to be docked and completely repaired," the data terminal added, "We have found several habitable planets in the Dream Plane so far, partner, where do you think it is appropriate to send them?" ”

As he spoke, he listed all the dream plane ecological planets that had been logged in so far, and Hao Ren began to carefully select among them. He first shook his head and ruled out Tanagus: "The atmosphere of Tanagus is poisonous to the inhabitants of the Ark, and that planet is currently inhabited by the Drom, and there will be Tanagus people who will move back in the future...... That's messy enough, no. ”

Elizabeth shouted: "Holleta has a good ecological environment......"

"Don't make trouble, that place has an owner," Hao Ren waved his hand, "It's not our territory." And let's be honest, the inhabitants of the Ark have been degraded for too long, and now they are barbaric, and they are not suitable for any foreign civilization for at least a few generations. ”

As he spoke, he smacked his lips with some regret: "To be honest, if it weren't for the war, the Gate of Surune would have had a lot of ecological planets, and that place was the chief testing field of the Goddess of Creation, how lively it was back then." ”

"But now there are only a lot of charred ruins left, and the atmosphere is highly poisonous," Nolan also sighed a little, and then looked serious, "If you just want to find a place to dock, Io can." ”

"Io?" Hao Ren raised his eyebrows, "There's no land there." ”

"These arks don't need land," Nolan said as he switched the holographic projection above the console, "and I found some interesting structures when I dismantled these ships...... They seem to have been designed with the ocean in mind, and the spacecraft's ecosystem also has a dedicated water filtration function, allowing the life-sustaining system to recover faster when landing on a water-rich planet. ”

Hao Ren immediately studied it with great interest, but now his knowledge in this area was not as good as Nolan's, and after looking dizzy, he could only roughly see that the shells of these arks seemed to have the ability to shape.

The designers of these ships had in mind from the beginning that their descendants would try to take root on various planets, and they did their best to create a series of engineering marvels with relatively primitive technology, and now, 10,000 years later, these most basic settings are still intact!

"But Io is a Kraken Star," Hao Ren frowned after the initial excitement had passed, "and even if the Ark could land on the ocean, it wouldn't be able to float on the sea forever - without land resources, the humans in the Ark would be no different from being trapped in space." ”

"I'll think about this later," Lily waved her hand with a big grin when she heard this, "the most important thing for these arks now is to find a place to catch their breath." You can stop them in Io for a while, and when the bits and pieces are all repaired, you should find a new planet, and then move them there. If you really can't do it, you go to the Siren Queen and ask the people of the Ark to sign an eight-hundred-year lease agreement with the Sirens, anyway, your old job is pimping......"

Hao Ren suddenly glared angrily at this open-mouthed husky, and Lily quickly shrunk her neck: "Well, I mean the real estate agent ......" (to be continued.) )
