Early the next morning.

The Dolphin quietly left the harbor of Golden Gallen Harbor, just as it had come.

Although Dora would be interested in staying here for a few more days, there are too many people here.

After a lot of media hype, almost everyone in the entire Golden Gallen Harbor knew about her, a guest from South Gate 2.

Including psionic energy.

Although the Alliance never hinted at any connection between this spiritual power and religious beliefs, Dora felt the tsunami-like enthusiasm.

Since the relevant information was published in the major evening newspapers, they have been blocked almost everywhere they go.

Even when the group left the port of Golden Gallen, there was a wave of pilgrimage on the port, which almost caused the crowd to stampede.

"Dear ...... Ms. Dora, I've been having a lot of eyelids lately, and I beg you to deign to help me do the math. ”

"You, you can see the dead, don't you? Can you give me a look at my father......"

"My lord! I'm a rat people! I incense the rat god every day, but I haven't made a fortune after worshipping for 20 years, can you help me see if the rat god is still there? Or is it ...... The Silver Moon Goddess is a little stronger? ”

"The tree of Insov is on top! Please give me peace! ”

Although there are many people who watch the excitement, only a small part of them are truly "religious", but even then there are enough horrors.

After all, the population base of the Golden Gallen Harbor is there, and the surging crowd almost squeezes the guards who maintain order into the sea.

The appearance of the crowd worshipping with one heart startled Dora, and she didn't know what to do for a while.

Fortune telling?

What's that?

Is the locals their own tree of Insov?

But no matter how hard she tried, all she saw was the shadow of a person......

The cargo submarine slowly sank and turned on the cruise mode.

It wasn't until the crowd disappeared from sight that Dora, who was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the bridge, said with a sigh of relief.

"The people here are too welcoming......"

Ye Shi, who was standing aside, said teasingly.

"Now you feel the feeling of being asked the same as 100,000 whys?"

Dora said embarrassedly with a red face.

"Hug, I'm sorry."

She really had a lot of things she didn't know about, and she didn't mean to cause trouble for others.

Including what the "100,000 whys" are, she hasn't figured it out until now, but she's embarrassed to ask.

Night Ten coughed and said.

“…… I'm just saying it casually, but it's not to the point of being sorry, and if you really don't understand something, it's better to ask. ”

Actually, it's good to have this experience.

Before, this guy had too strong an idol filter for the "ancestor", and he was cautious about everyone.

This mode of getting along is actually very tiring.

Because one person's idol filter means another person's idol baggage.

Not everyone is keen on having fun.

And she should have realized by now that even the "heavens" where the "ancestors" lived were not all the perfect heavens she imagined.

The cargo submarine made its way north along the east coast of Borneo Province and docked at the harbor of Mammoth City.

It's a completely different kind of cyberpunk hodgepodge than the Golden Gallen Harbor.

Outside the port, there are rows of concrete lattice buildings with high plot ratios, while at the heart of the port area are elegantly decorated and clean churches.

The contrast between the two distinct areas is as clear as if the head of a cow is on the body of a horse.

However, due to the high degree of secularization of the local Protestants, and the beliefs of the mammoths who originally lived here were not very deep-rooted, and were more "practical", so the two sides got along relatively well.

Relying on the wealth brought by the immigrants of Silver Moon Bay and the huge local labor resources, this once flooded settlement can be regarded as unbreakable, relying on several waves of era dividends to ride the wind, and now it is one of the few production bases on the coast of the Borneo Sea with heavy industrial heritage.

And this is one of the political legacies left by Lassy.

Looking at the port, which was reprinted on the floor-to-ceiling windows, Dora asked curiously as she looked at Yaju.

"We're at Silvermoon Bay?"

Yashi said with a smile.

"It's almost there, this is Mammoth City not far from Silvermoon Bay. This and the port of Golden Gallen are considered to be the survivor settlements of Borneo, and the port area is similar to Silvermoon Bay, so we have no plans to stop here, just take a look from a distance. ”

Dora nodded as if she didn't understand, and looked out the window and said.

"Is it the same...... But I always feel that the atmosphere here is so heavy, is it because of famine? ”

Ye Shi didn't know much about the situation here, so he looked at Han Mingyue.

The latter has heard of the local situation because of their field of expertise and the fact that their students have taught in the area.

Answering Dora's curious gaze, she thought for a moment and said.

"No, there wasn't a famine here, but it did go through some changes. Including wars, including civil strife, and so on...... In short, quite a few people died. And, the harsh laws may also be one thing, and it's certainly not as liberal as the Port of the Golden Gallen. ”

"Are the laws different in the same province?" Dora looked at her puzzled, "They have different ...... Sheik? ”

"It's not just the chiefs who are different, but the overall ideology of the society is also very different, just like you and the Qiu people. You believe in spiritualism, and the Qiu people believe in materialism. Golden Gallen Harbor ...... Let's be equal like us, at least on the surface. And the Mammoth State is the other end of the scale, leaning towards authoritarianism. Even if they seem closer to us, we have to recognize that. ”

When she said this, Han Mingyue paused for a moment, curled the corners of her mouth and continued.

"As for the law, the difference is too big, if you make a mistake in the port of Kingalen, you will be locked up in a small black room at most, but here you will not only be locked up, but you may also be spanked."

Dora shrunk her neck.

"Then let's not go......"

She was worried about offending the other party because she didn't know the local customs.

Seeing her nervous appearance, Han Mingyue burst out laughing and said in a mocking tone.

"You don't have to worry so much, as long as you are a normal person, you don't have to worry about being spanked."

"The buildings here are interesting, not as cluttered as the Golden Gallen Harbor."

The little koala was taking a picture from a distance in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and included the data in the database.

Half an hour after hearing it, it said in an electronic voice with a hint of anticipation.

"I'm starting to wonder what Silvermoon Bay looks like."

……

As Night Ten said, Silvermoon Bay is on the other side of the Djobar Mountains, not far from Mammoth, and this semi-arcing harbor resembles a crescent moon at night.

As at the Port of the Golden Gallen, the crowd was greeted by the locals as soon as they landed.

Although many people have seen the photos in the newspapers, the vast majority of locals are eager to see the guest from South Gate 2 in person.

Fortunately, the population base here is not as large as that of Golden Gallen Port, and although the port is crowded for a while, it will not be as paralyzed as when they first left Golden Gallen Port.

With the previous experience in the Golden Gallen Harbor, Dora was much more relaxed this time, just smiled and waved to the people to show friendship, and did not show any more crampedness.

The group boarded a special train to the train station at the port.

Soon after they arrived at the train station, they met members of the Silvermoon Bay City Council, and even an emissary sent by the king of the Hump Kingdom.

Looking at the group of people who got off at the gate of the station, the messenger with a beard opened his arms with a smile on his face from afar, and warmly greeted everyone and sent greetings from the Hump Kingdom.

Especially when facing Night Ten, he solemnly held his hand after a warm hug.

"Dear Mr. Night Ten, on behalf of the King of the Hump Kingdom, I extend my highest respect to you! Thank you for stopping the plans of the Celestials and saving our crumbling world. ”

This sycophant shoot is still quite comfortable.

However, he is not the hairy boy he used to be, both in terms of pattern and knowledge, he is much higher than before.

Facing the compliment of the envoy of the Hump Kingdom, he only secretly enjoyed himself for a while, and said with a humble smile on his face.

"It's not just my work, it's the result of everyone coming together."

It seemed a little surprised that his city and intelligence were not the same, and the expression on the messenger's face was slightly surprised, but he quickly answered.

After a few words of compliment, he politely told the royal family's invitation and said.

“…… I wonder if I have the honour of inviting you and your guests to Hump, our Majesty would like to entertain you for a few days. ”

Yashi politely continued.

"Please convey to your Majesty on my behalf, we appreciate his kindness, but we have already lost too much time on our journey. In order not to delay the agenda of the Sticky Community, we will have to expedite our trip to Dawning City...... I'm afraid I'll have to visit again next time. ”

"That'...... It's a shame. ”

The messenger made a regretful expression, but didn't say much, just said with a respectful bow.

"Please bring the greetings of the survivors of the Humpback Kingdom to Dawning City, we will always be your friends and friends of the survivors of the South Gate II. May the spirit of the sand sea be with you, and may you have a safe journey to the end of the universe. ”

"Thank you for your blessings, I will bring it back to my hometown."

Yajuchi smiled and nodded, saying goodbye to the King's messenger.

After finally coping with all the entertainment, the group went to the VIP waiting room at the station.

This station is also one of the assets of Niuma Group.

The railways in the entire Luoxia Province are basically completed by several collectively controlled enterprises of the alliance, but they are only handed over to the local companies registered in the local area to operate on their behalf.

This naturally includes the section of Silver Moon Bay.

It is precisely for this reason that long before the group disembarked, the alliance had already done a good job of docking and temporarily closed the VIP waiting room.

After all, there is a lot of traffic here, if it causes any commotion or accident.

Dora, who was sitting in the waiting room, couldn't wait to look at Yeten and asked.

"Why the Spirit of the Sand Sea? Aren't the locals believing in the goddess of the silver moon? ”

"This is where the peculiarities of the place come in."

Looking at the crowded platform outside the window of the waiting room, Ye Shi recalled the information set on the official website and said in a chatty tone.

"The locals also originally believed in the spirit of the sand sea, including the apocalyptic theory in the spirit of the sand sea, as well as the plot of the homeland of the desert, etc. However, as time passed, the end of the world did not come, and even the corner of the province near the sea was able to maintain the appearance of beautiful mountains and rivers even without relying on the oasis system of the pre-war era, and the original rhetoric naturally seemed outdated. ”

"As a result, some people who were dissatisfied with feudal etiquette and religion, after they had a certain strength, made some secularized improvements in response to the inexplicable parts of their beliefs and the needs of real life."

"For example, you don't have to live in the desert for generations, and you don't have to carry a handful of sand from your homeland in your pocket. For example, believers born outside the province of Luoxia don't even need sand, they can worship once a week, and even charity can replace worship. ”

Speaking of which, the last creed was added by the players of the Alliance.

Yashi remembers that at first, it was because a player with cat ears was regarded by local believers as the embodiment of the goddess of the silver moon, and then because of her and her three friends active in the local area, the legend of the goddess of the silver moon was added to several pages of persuasive content.

In short, since then, the followers of the Silver Moon Sect have had one more cause.

Not only did they buy and sell and repair churches, but they also began to do things such as helping the victims, teaching people to read, and spreading knowledge.

Including the priest named Mergio, whom they had heard of in the port of Golden Gallen, was a faithful practitioner of this doctrine.

In a sense, this is also a kind of "passing on the torch".

"I see......," Dora nodded thoughtfully, and suddenly said, "In that case, is it possible that as long as we have enough time, there will be a new change in our theory of the 'Tree of Insov'?" ”

"Almost," said Yashi casually, "as long as your society doesn't reject the birth of new things...... Actually, haven't you noticed? As I have mentioned to you before, your belief in the Tree of Insof is itself a refinement of our 'Theory of Dimensions'. ”

The Tree of Insof was first discovered by the crew of the Twins, and the Gaia at that time did not distinguish between the foresters and the Qiu people, but scattered in the woods like primitive tribes, in a completely uncivilized state.

After the crew of the Twins passed on their discoveries to the Gaia, they enlightened them.

However, the latter did not understand the concept of ecological maintenance systems and the high-dimensional world, so based on his own wisdom, he explained the high-dimensional existence as a god.

This is actually a very clever idea, and the forester who came up with it can be called a genius.

It's just that Tunnan's self-pretended cleverness is a bit ridiculous later, but that's another topic.

After listening to his answer, Dora seemed to understand something, and finally let go of some things completely.

Before this journey, she had been thinking of convincing the "Ancestors" to bring her people to join the world of the Ancestors.

Or -

Let the first ancestors descend on that backward and ignorant planet, so as to bring the people of that planet to achieve glorious evolution.

But now, she finally let go of the obsession with a hint of naïve fantasy.

Perhaps the Patriarchs were right.

Keeping a certain distance is the greatest kindness.

Even if someone dragged them to the sky, it didn't mean that her people would be able to fly to heaven.

That is a completely different concept from taking one or two people away, and they will be completely freed from the constraints of gravity, and they will face problems that they have never encountered before.

And those more difficult and complex problems will most likely never be solved by them who have not yet learned to walk......

Unless they completely abandon their civilization.

……

The train arrives at the station.

The group was getting ready to get on the bus.

At this time, everyone met a "strange man" on the platform in front of the train.

His face was wrapped in strips of white cloth, and his whole body was wrapped like a mummy.

Even in a place like Silvermoon Bay, this kind of appearance can be considered avant-garde.

Surprisingly, however, the locals did not give him a strange look, and even looked at him with a certain amount of respect.

And this respect is even greater than that of the messenger sent by the king.

The man stared intently at Dora.

And the latter, after noticing his gaze, also cast a curious look at him.

Night Ten didn't notice his presence at first.

It wasn't until he noticed Dora greeting someone in the crowd and following her line of sight that he spotted the strange guy.

How did a guy dressed like this get through security?

He thought so to himself, and was wondering what the man was about, when he saw the man reach out and untie the bandage on his face.

Looking at the face that was so ugly that it was deep in his soul, Ye Shi was stunned by his ugliness for a moment, and then recognized him at a glance.

“…… Dove?! ”
