Working in an office where you can hear the rustling of the sea, walk to the window and see the rippling sea when you are sleepy, especially when the room is spacious enough with simple and bright décor, comfortable solid wood furniture and plenty of sunlight.

"Captain Alensall, every time I walk into your office, my heart is filled with jealousy, even His Excellency the President does not have such a comfortable office environment. ”

Next to the bright floor-to-ceiling window, under the exquisite tassel silk curtains, a medium-sized figure, slightly fat, if it weren't for the three silver stars on his shoulders, people couldn't help but be in awe, but from the appearance of the very approachable old black man sat on the soft leather sofa and jokingly said: "Of course, in addition to the office, you have two things that are more enviable,

It's about maintaining a perfect body shape and a youthful look like a young person.

I dreamed last night that I was just like you, harvesting wheat in a Minnesota field, and oh, think about it, the Minnesota wheat field was more than thirty years ago for me. ”

Sitting across from the old black man was an Atlantean man with a youthful face and a look in his eyes that revealed the wisdom of accidents that can only be found in the world, and he replied with a kind of rice-style humor: "More than thirty years ago, you must have been joking with General Joyce, you looked like you were in your twenties. ”

As Alensall spoke, there was a few soft knocks on the office door and then it was pushed open, and Allison strode in. Lizheng saluted, "General Joyce, Captain Ehrenthall." Zhang Lisheng, who was following her, looked around, nodded with a smile and said, "Gentlemen and ladies, good morning." ”

Seeing the people from the MIA entering the door with the super-rich and brilliant biologists who had been very important in the exploration mission of the 'Sea Shrimp II' and had a very mysterious past, many people in the office showed scrutinizing eyes, but 'Atlantis' and the highest status on both sides of the earth, Joes and Alensall, seemed to be business as usual.

"Lieutenant Allison, I'm the amiable commander of the New York military base, not your direct superior, those 'iron mask' generals who can't even laugh at the General Intelligence Directorate of the Department of Defense.

All of this doesn't have to be too restrictive. The Earthling's general stood up and greeted Alison gently. Then he strode enthusiastically in front of Zhang Lisheng. He shook hands vigorously and said, "You must be Dr. Zhang."

As a soldier whose duty is to defend the country, I thank you for everything you have done for the United States, and it is an honor to know you,"

"Thank you for your compliment, General Joyce. Even for this compliment, it is worth serving me again. It's also a great honor to know you. Zhang Lisheng replied to Joyce with humor, and suddenly looked at Someril on the side with an apologetic expression, "But although I really want you to talk about it more." But Your Excellency, at this moment, I would like to say sorry to Sergeant Major Someryl.

I'm sorry ma'am, but I lost that 'recorder' you lent me. ”

"What, that's an ancient heirloom of Lady Someril, do you know what a 'Legendary Antiquity' means to the Atlanteans..."Hearing this, Someril's delicate face was stunned, showing a regretful expression, and Gut Ali, who was standing beside her and had been forced to apologize to the young man for the 'Light Stone', couldn't help but roar angrily.

But he was only halfway through his words when he was interrupted by Somailil, who came back to his senses, "Gut Ali, Mr. Li Sheng did not intentionally lose my family heirloom 'recorder', don't say it again, I choose to forgive him." ”

"Thank you for your forgiveness beautiful lady, but it is difficult for me to forgive myself for my mistakes," Zhang Lisheng took out a beautifully carved wooden box from his pocket in shame, and opened it to reveal a beautiful diamond, "I know that there are natural diamond mines in the universe to form planets.

This small stone is not so precious to a civilization that can sail freely in the sea of stars, but the knife work of the earth's top master cutter is unique, and since you like light and stone, you will definitely love 'it'. ”

As he spoke, the young man held the wooden box in front of Someril with both hands, "According to the custom of 'Atlantis', I offer a gift to express my apologies, please accept it, Lady Someril." ”

The beautiful stone that shimmered with dazzling light in Zhang Lisheng's hand attracted everyone's attention, but the earthlings were smacking their tongues for the owners of the LS Group, while the Atlanteans were surprised for another reason.

"Mr. Li Sheng, what I want to tell you is that in fact, the so-called planet formed by natural diamond mines only exists in theory, and a natural diamond like 'Atlantis' is also very precious, and I am by no means unwilling to accept it because your gift is not sincere enough," Someril opened her mouth and said with an extremely strange expression, "But, but."

Diamonds represent in our civilization, a covenant of eternity, so I can only say sorry. ”

"The contract to be together forever..."Zhang Lisheng opened his mouth, suddenly realized the meaning of the Atlantean woman's words, and shrugged his shoulders awkwardly, "Oh, it has the same meaning on earth, but it is to be set in a ring, ah, well, it is me who should say sorry..."

He put away the diamond indiscriminately, rummaged around his body for a while, sighed in the end, spread his hands with a wry smile and said, "I have no other gifts on me that can show my sincerity, so I can only make up for you next time Ms. Someril." ”

"You don't need to be like this, Mr. Li Sheng, I said I forgave you. Someril said magnanimously again.

Zhang Lisheng smiled and didn't say anything, although the gift he apologized for not being sent out, but such an episode happened, and the sincerity had been truly demonstrated, reversing his impression in the hearts of most Atlanteans in the room.

"Dr. ZhangAlthough any 'heirloom artifact' is of great significance to a distant Atlantean family, since Sergeant Major Someril has chosen to forgive you, it must be a wholehearted understanding, so you don't have to feel so guilty at all.

For us Atlanteans, no matter how precious a 'foreign object' is, it is not as valuable as a sincere friendship, especially since this friendship spans the vast sea of stars. Alensall, who had not been at a glance since the young man broke into the office, smiled kindly and said, "By the way, I forgot to introduce myself, I am Alensall, the 'stellar captain' of the Atlantis fleet.

He is also the leader of the '3009th World Realm's exploration mission 'Atlantis'. ”

Zhang Lisheng has made up for some common sense in the military affairs of Atlantis recently, and he knows that for the Atlanteans who wrap all the three types of intraplanetary combat forces into the interstellar armament, the supreme commander of the battleship is equivalent to the general on the earth.

The 'Stellar Captain' in the second sequence of the Satellite, Planet, Star, and Nebula four-level 'Captain' ranks is roughly equivalent to the three-star general of the United States, and the position is quite considerable.

His face turned pale, and the young man said respectfully, "It's an honor to meet you, Your Excellency Alensall. ”

The yellow-skinned young man before the meeting was not at all the perverse appearance as rumored, and his attitude was polite, and Alensall's smile became more gentle, and he said straight to the point: "I am also honored to meet you, doctor."

Allow me to introduce you to the partners of the Atlantis side who will be on an exploration mission with you to the 3009th World Realm.

The leader is Sergeant Major Someril, who has already established a friendship with you, and her powerful powers of light and heat are key to completing the mission without the mechanical guards. ”

"This can be imagined, Lord Alensall," Zhang Lisheng nodded, and said in a very approving tone: "The '3009th World Realm' in your mouth, the place we call the 'Sea Shrimp No. 2 World Realm' is full of all kinds of unknown dangers, and the importance of a guardian who has mastered super abilities is self-evident. ”

"No, Doctor, there is not one, but four Guardians," Alensor said, as he swiped his finger across Gut-Ali and two Atlanteans who were exactly the same height and appearance, and who could hardly tell the difference if it weren't for a man and a woman, "Gut-Ali, although he is only a 'lava sergeant', he can exert the 'light and heat' of the travel star with all his strength."

Brother and sister Kazanorchi and Kazanona, planetary-level sergeants, can easily vaporize rocks by mobilizing the power of light stones. ”

"Just listening to your introduction has given me a lot of confidence in the completion of this mission. Zhang Lisheng said with an admiring expression: "I think after introducing the strength of the guards, you should introduce the 'Atlantis' scientist who can really be with my colleagues, Your Excellency Alensall?"

"Looks like you're a guesser, doctor. In response to the praise of the youth, Alensall pointed to the remaining four Atlanteans, two men and two women, and said, "Rentweiss and McCartia, experts in language and writing.

They are familiar with the rules of change between languages and texts, and with the help of a simple portable collection analyzer, they can quickly decipher an unfamiliar language so that it can be translated by a 'translator'.

Sweetman is a civiliser and philosopher who can see through the fog of history and find precious truths through books, while Elus is a biologist like you. ”

"Four guard soldiers, two experts in language and text decipherment, a biologist and a philosopher, a perfect match for Lord Alensall," Zhang Lisheng smiled and turned his head to Joes in the rare bright sunlight of winter, "Your Excellency General, what about our earth, apart from a large number of intelligence officers, who else would venture to the 'otherworldly realm'?"
