"Honestly, we've waited too long for you."

Peng Xiaofei strode to the forefront, and now he has already had a general's belly when he is just over thirty years old, and when he is wearing the uniform of a space engineer, he even shows a bit of leadership temperament. As he walked, he joked with Elder Doray and Captain Gurtu beside him, "It's really evil, this ship seems to be able to understand the landing instructions of humans, but there is no follow-up feedback at all. ”

Elder Doray and Captain Gurtu looked at each other and smiled, and comforted Peng Xiaofei's words, "It's okay, we didn't respond at that time. ”

"Well, now it's up to you, I heard that you've had deep exchanges with the Enlighteners in the past?"

"There is no talk of in-depth exchanges, after all, the civilization of the enlighteners is too advanced compared to the ancestral civilization at that time, and the ancestral civilization is more about listening to guidance." Elder Dorey replied modestly.

"Haha, that's a lot more advantageous than us."

As they spoke, they soon arrived at the dock where the Inspirer ship was.

When they saw the human engineers arranging around the spaceship with instruments and equipment, Doré and Gurtu's eyes flashed with a faint sense of unhappiness, but they were soon attracted to the ship's body.

Under the shadowless lamp of the closed dock, the 100-meter-long spaceship rested horizontally on the wide ground, occupying a great space, but it did not give people the slightest feeling of bloat and clumsiness, on the contrary, it was like a silver flat boat, which spontaneously gave rise to a touch of delicacy and agility.

Elder Doray pursed his lips, the light in his eyes flickered, and his chest continued to rise and fall, and he sincerely admired, "It's so beautiful. ”

Although Gurtu had already seen this spaceship, and even the hangar door he opened, it was the first time he had seen the spaceship parked, and he also suppressed his excitement at this time, and said in a deep voice: "The miracle of the enlightener." ”

"yes...... Not to mention anything else, the speed of this spaceship alone is enough to make people greedy. Peng Xiaofei also smiled on the side and agreed: "It's up to you next." ”

"Hmmm! Thank! ”

Elder Doray had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, and when he heard this, he strode forward and quickly walked to the hatch of the ship.

At this time, the human engineers also stepped back, stood in a row on the side, and handed over the detection position of the spacecraft to the guests who came from afar.

Peng Xiaofei didn't step forward, he just hugged his arms at the door, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

If you look closely, there is actually a faint sadness hidden in this smile.

As all the Arime Engineers—or rather, the "elite" engineers of the Kodo clan, stepped forward with excitement, all the human engineers looked at Peng Xiaofei in unison.

A small percentage of the human engineers present were in the know, and the expressions on their faces were inexplicable, in short, very ambiguous. The other part has complicated eyes and even some unpleasantness.

After all...... In the eyes of the uninformed, the ship came by itself.

Then, according to the principle of fate, this spaceship should belong to humans.

What's the matter with these Khodo people?

But everyone didn't speak, but waited quietly, watching as the Khodo engineers stood in a row in front of the ship, and then bowed deeply to the ship with reverent expressions and postures.

The sadness in Peng Xiaofei's eyes became even stronger.

At that moment, Elder Dorey took a clumsy-looking notebook-like device from his entourage, and after putting it down, he knelt on the floor, took a deep breath, and began to type in the communication commands.

This is a linguistic code from the memories of the ancestors about the enlightened.

Although the last time the ship was greeted by a meko, it was apparently because the spacecraft had just passed through a wormhole and blocked the wireless signal.

And this time...... It stops right here.

It can't run away!

The clock ticked by.

Suddenly, there was a faint, relay-like sound of a relay jumping in the spacecraft, and a moment later, the entire ship's hull trembled rapidly, and then one after another, the ship's interior lights began to light up.

Elder Dorey's body shook violently!

He no longer cared about the human being beside him, and the whole person was prostrate on the ground, speaking loudly, excitedly, in a trembling voice from the memory of his ancestors, and he repeated it over and over again, expecting a response from the ship's owner.

Crash! All the Khodo people fell to their knees, and their piety made them dare not raise their heads.

Elder Dorey's voice echoed through the dock like a chant, blending into a symphony with the sound of the ship.

Peng Xiaofei, who was in the distance, quietly watched the tricks of the Kodo people, and could no longer hide the sad look with pity in his eyes, and nodded lightly.

After a few moments, the ship began to rise upwards.

In an instant, the sound of red sirens sounded throughout the docks, and Aita's voice sounded in everyone's ears without a trace of emotion.

"Warning, received a request for takeoff of the aircraft at Hangar Pier 18, please evacuate all personnel at Hangar Pier 18 to the blue area outside the red cordon within three minutes."

"Repeat, please evacuate all personnel outside the red cordon within three minutes!"

With Aita's voice, a red laser quickly descended from the ceiling, forming a square area of tens of thousands of square meters around the spaceship.

Peng Xiaofei took a deep breath and shouted loudly: "Retreat!" The spaceship is going to take off, the dome is going to open, there is no air! ”

At the sound of the alarm, Elder Doray looked up in astonishment.

All the Kodo engineers also raised their heads at the same time.

I saw that in the red light in the sky, the spaceship in front of me had already flown higher and higher, and after a while, it passed over everyone's heads.

"Withdraw!" Peng Xiaofei yelled loudly: "Drag them back!" ”

The human engineer who had come back to his senses quickly stepped forward and without saying a word, pushed the Khodo engineers who had fallen into a stupor, towards the rear.

Just kidding, as soon as the dome opens, the air inside the capsule will instantly escape into space, and the artificial gravity will disappear - they don't want to see guests from afar come to a message terminator experiment that challenges the vacuum of space - yes, a widespread myth is that if humans are exposed to space, their blood will boil and they will explode to death. The reality is that, although it is not so exaggerated, as long as you stay for more than 10 seconds, the human body will be damaged, and more than a minute or two will basically burp.

(Note: In 1965, at the NASA Manned Spacecraft Center, there was an experimenter who was exposed to a vacuum because of a leaked spacesuit, lost consciousness after 14 seconds, began to pressurize after 15 seconds, and was rescued.) ）

It was only then that Elder Doré finally came to his senses. He bent his hands into claws, waving them at the close range of ships in the air, letting out a heart-rending cry.

"No !!"
