The sparsely populated Origin City has become a city that never sleeps tonight, especially in the square in the center of the city, where the dense lights are as bright as the rising sun, illuminating the square as bright as day. The water jets from the central fountain glow with seven colors under the brilliant lights, and the soft and soothing sound of music, with a heavy brown star style, hovers over the square.

The square has been set up as a large banquet venue, with nearly a hundred long tables arranged along the edge of the square, surrounding the center of the square, like an artificially isolated dance floor. In the middle of the dance floor, the fountain is raised several meters around it to form a makeshift stage, surrounded by neon lights that sway in the wind.

Hundreds of mechanical puppets are busy in the venue, and there is still half an hour before the large army will enter the atmosphere, and the twenty-eight captains, as the forerunners, of course, must surprise their compatriots, let them enjoy the warmest welcome and feel the warmth of home. So, after the end of the communication, everyone started to get busy.

What is the most important first step to achieve this? Of course, it is a grand welcome party with the characteristics of their hometown, and when you think about it, you know how surprised it will be to be greeted by a hometown-style ceremony when they first step on the ground after thousands of years of fleeing from their homeland, and nothing could be more important.

The question is, what is the hometown style, and what is the welcome party? The captains asked each other blankly, but no one knew how to hold a welcome party, let alone a hometown style.

His whole life was devoted to the race, all his energy was devoted to his duties, and every knowledge he mastered was for the sake of surviving long voyages, or for the sake of being able to successfully establish himself on a new planet, and none of them were superfluous.

So it was only at this time that everyone was at a loss to find that they didn't understand life at all, not only themselves, but I am afraid that all the captains were the same, and they had long forgotten what life was, so that they couldn't even do anything about a banquet.

Yes, for so many years, the number of times everyone has gathered together is pitiful, even if they are gathered, it is just a major meeting, as soon as the meeting is over, everyone immediately returns to their spaceship, and they dare not stay for more than a minute, lest there be any accident on their spaceship, so that these people who have never known what the welcome will be will hold a banquet, it is indeed a bit difficult for some strong people.

Fortunately, the system stored some video materials from the era of the Brown Star civilization, and after spending more energy than researching a technology, the captains finally found some records of the welcome party from the data, and what is the style of the Brown Star civilization, of course, what they didn't know was that these were very lame activity records, but for the same lame participants, it was enough.

After the welcome party, the compatriots will board the shuttle led by the forerunners for a two-hour tour of the planet, which will circle the equator of the new brown star and show them their new home, although the new brown star does not have the strange scenery of the planets that passed by before, but it is a home after all, this place is unique.

At the end of the pilgrimage and everyone returns to the city of origin, there will be no longer a distinction between the forerunners and the latecomers, and they will become one again, and all the captains will be led by Delia to the Darkmoon Cathedral in the center of the city to hold a prayer ceremony to thank the goddess for her protection.

Every year on this day, it will be the beginning of the year, that is, the 'New Year' that appeared in the records of the Brown Star Age, and this day will become the most important festival of the Brown Star people, that is, a racial festival and a religious holiday, on this night, all the faithful gather in the nearby chapel and pray to the goddess of the dark moon until the moon disappears and the sun rises again.

"Attention, attention, the ship is approaching the atmosphere, the guidance signal has been issued, and it is expected that in twenty minutes, their shuttle will be on the ram on the outskirts of the city. The voice on the city radio was faintly excited, "Now you can start preparing." ”

"Let's get started. I don't know who shouted, and then the whole city lit up.

The lights on every street are lit, colorful flags are planted all over the buildings next to the streets, the collected flowers decorate the slightly monotonous city, and the fragrance is sent to every corner of the city by the night breeze.

The road from the apron to the central venue is covered by a red carpet, no one has prepared such a large number of red carpets in advance, most of them are made in the few hours after receiving the news, the brown star people do not like to waste, but today is the exception, today's brown star people are qualified, and there is a reason to indulge once, and devote themselves to thoroughly enjoying the taste of happiness.

Boxes and crates of freshly brewed sparkling wine are piled up on both sides of the red carpet, while celebratory silks and shredded paper flowers are hidden, street screens are ready to start playing images at any time, and launchers are set up on the roofs of each building, and the brilliant fireworks will completely illuminate the way back for the compatriots at the sound of an order.

On the square, the aroma of food began to waft out, and the mechanical cooks who had been preparing for a long time began to take out the hearty food that had been prepared from the insulated warehouse, the pioneers had been enjoying the green food for several months, of course, so that the long-awaited compatriots could enjoy the same food for the first time, fresh meat, freshly picked vegetables, fruits with green leaves, and lively seafood, all of which were provided.

Suppressing the appetite that almost gushed out, the pioneers reluctantly boarded the maglev truck, gathered on the tarmac on the outskirts of the city, looked down at the timer, there were still ten minutes, it seemed that it was time.

"Good, test done. The temporary commander of the base assumed command for the last time, "Now, turn off the lights." ”

Under the order, the lights as bright as day were extinguished at the same time, and the city returned to its usual appearance, only the street lamps on the side of the street, and they also emitted a dim light, since it was a surprise, of course, they could not be mentally prepared in advance, the forerunners looked at each other, and nodded to each other with a wicked smile.

It didn't take long for a large patch of bright sign lights to appear in the night sky, and the lights were so obvious in the starless night sky. Soon, nearly a hundred shuttles roared and landed at the designated position, and the number almost filled the spacious tarmac. However, although they had landed, the captains were at a loss, they hadn't figured out why the compatriots who were supposed to be waiting and handing over here didn't appear, only some metal figures for guidance, guiding everyone to get off the plane and converge.

However, they soon did not need to think about it again, because just after all the captains had gathered, the tarmac suddenly became brightly lit, colorful fireworks shot into the sky, and twenty-eight Precursors rushed out of their hiding places, squirting the sparkling wine they had already prepared in their hands towards the captains.

"Long live the Brown Star!" the same cheer came out of different mouths, leaving the captains at a loss for a moment.
