The Dolphin left the harbor of Golden Gallen Harbor as quietly as it came.
Although Dora was quite interested in staying here for a few more days and taking a look, there were unfortunately too many people here.
After the media's massive publicity, almost everyone in Jingallang Port knew about her guest from Nanmen Er.
Including psychic powers.
Although the Alliance never hinted that this spiritual power had any connection with religious beliefs, Dora still felt the enthusiasm that surged like a tsunami.
Since the major evening newspapers published the relevant information, they have been blocking almost everywhere they go.
Even when the group of people left Golden Gallon Port, there was a wave of pilgrimage at the port, which almost caused a stampede of the crowd.
"Dear...Ms. Dora, my left eyelid has been twitching lately. Please condescend to help me tell my fortune."
"You, you can see dead people, right? Can you help me take a look at my father..."
"Sir! I, I, am a member of the Rat Clan! I offer incense to the Rat God every day, but I haven't gotten rich even after worshiping him for 20 years. Can you help me see if the Rat God is still there? Or... the Silver Moon Goddess
Is it more powerful?"
"The Tree of Insof is up there! Please grant me peace!"
Although there are many people watching the fun, only a small number are truly "devout", but even so it is terrifying enough.
After all, the population base of Golden Gallen Port is there, and the surging crowd almost pushed the guards who were maintaining order into the sea.
The sight of so many people worshiping with one heart startled Dora, and she didn't know what to do for a moment.
Fortune telling?
What it is?
The locals’ own Insof tree?
But no matter how hard she tried, all she saw was the shadow of a person...
The cargo submarine slowly sank and started cruising mode.
It wasn't until the crowd disappeared from sight that Dora, standing in front of the French bridge window, said with lingering fear.
"The people here are so welcoming..."
Ye Shi, who was standing aside, said jokingly.
"Now do you feel what it feels like to be asked the same question as a hundred thousand whys?"
Dora blushed and said embarrassedly.
"Hug, sorry."
She does have a lot of things she doesn't know and wants to know, and she doesn't mean to cause trouble to others.
Including what the "one hundred thousand whys" is, she still doesn't understand, but she's too embarrassed to ask.
Ye Shi coughed and said.
"...I just said it casually, and it's not like I have to apologize. If you really don't understand something, it's better to ask."
In fact, it was quite a good experience to have.
Previously, this guy had too strong an idol filter for the "ancestor" and was cautious about everyone.
This type of relationship is actually very tiring.
Because one person’s idol filter means another person’s idol baggage.
Not everyone is keen on enjoying this "fun".
And she should have realized by now that even the "heaven" where the "ancestor" lives is not always the perfect paradise she imagined.
The cargo submarine headed north along the east coast of Borneo Province and docked at the harbor of Mammoth City.
The situation here is completely different from the cyberpunk hodgepodge of Golden Gallen Harbor.
The urban area outside the port is lined with rows of concrete lattice buildings with extremely high floor area ratios, while the core port area is home to elegantly decorated, clean and tidy churches.
The two completely different areas form a sharp contrast, just like a cow's head growing on a horse's body.
However, because the local Protestants are highly secular, and the Mammoths who originally lived here did not have very deep-rooted beliefs, and were more "practical", the two sides got along relatively harmoniously.
Relying on the massive wealth brought by immigrants from Silver Moon Bay and the huge local labor force, this settlement that was once submerged in floods has been able to survive. Riding on several waves of dividends, it has now become one of the few villages along the Borneo Sea coast.
There are many production bases with heavy industry background.
And this can be regarded as one of the political legacies left by Lacy.
Looking at the port re-printed on the floor-to-ceiling windows, Dora looked at Ye Shi curiously and asked.
"Have we arrived at Silver Moon Bay?"
Ye Shi said with a smile.
"We are almost here, Mammoth City, not far from Silvermoon Bay. Both here and Golden Gallon Port are the settlements of survivors in Borneo Province, and the port area is similar to Silvermoon Bay. We have no plans to dock here.
Just take a look at it from a distance."
Dora nodded as if she understood, 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 the famine?"
Ye Shi didn't know much about the situation here, so he looked at Han Mingyue.
The latter has some knowledge of the local situation because of his professional field and because his students have taught in this area.
Meeting Dora's curious gaze, she thought for a moment and said.
"That's not true. There has been no famine here, but it has experienced some changes. Including wars, civil strife, etc. In short, many people died. Moreover, strict laws may also be on the one hand, but it is definitely not like this place.
Golden Gallen Harbor is so free.”
"Are the laws in the same province different?" Dora looked at her puzzled, "They have different... chiefs?"
"Not only are the chiefs different, but the overall ideological trend of society is also very different, just like you and the Qiu people. You believe in spiritualism, and the Qiu people believe in materialism. Jingallang Port... Let's consider them equal to us, at least understand
On the surface, yes. The Mammoth Kingdom is on the other end of the scale, leaning towards authoritarianism. Even if they seem to be closer to us, we must realize this."
When talking about this, Han Mingyue paused for a moment, curled the corners of his mouth and continued.
"As for the law, the difference is huge. If you make a mistake in Kingallen Port, you will be locked up in a dark room, but here you will not only be locked up, but you may also be spanked."
Dora shrank her neck.
"Then let's not go..."
She was worried about offending the other person because she didn't understand the local customs.
Seeing her nervous look, Han Mingyue burst out laughing and said in a teasing 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 quite interesting, not as messy as Golden Gallen Port."
The little koala took a photo from a distance in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and included the data in the database.
After listening to it for half an hour, it spoke in an electronic voice with a hint of expectation.
"I'm starting to wonder what Silver Moon Bay is like."
…
As Ye Shi said, Silver Moon Bay is on the other side of the Zhuobar Mountains not far from Mammoth. This semi-arc port is like a crescent moon at night.
Just like at Golden Gallen Port, everyone was warmly welcomed by the locals as soon as they landed.
Although many people have seen the photos in newspapers, most locals are still eager to see the guest from Nanmen Er with their own eyes.
Fortunately, the population base here is not as large as that of Golden Gallen Port. Although the port was crowded for a while, it was not as crowded as when they first left Golden Gallen Port, which paralyzed the traffic in several streets.
After her previous experience at Golden Gallen Port, Dora was much calmer this time. She just smiled and waved to people to express friendship, and did not show any embarrassment anymore.
The group of people got on a special bus to the train station at the port.
Shortly after they arrived at the train station, they met members of the Silver Moon Bay Municipal Council and even an envoy sent by the King of Camelback Kingdom.
Looking at the group of people getting off the train at the station gate, the messenger with a beard opened his arms with a smile from a distance, greeted them warmly, and extended greetings from the Camelback Kingdom to everyone.
Especially when facing Ye Shi, he solemnly held his hand after a warm hug.
"Dear Mr. Night Ten, on behalf of the King of Camelback Kingdom, I would like to express my highest respect to you! Thank you for stopping the plan of the heavenly being and saving our crumbling world."
This flattering night scene is quite comfortable.
However, after all, he is no longer the young boy he used to be. Both his style and knowledge are much higher than before.
Faced with the compliment from the envoy from the Camelback Kingdom, he just felt secretly happy in his heart and said with a humble smile on his face.
"That's not just the result of me alone, it's the result of everyone working together."
It seemed that he was a little surprised that his city and the information were different. The messenger's face was slightly surprised, but he still quickly picked up the conversation.
After a few compliments and pleasantries, he politely told the whole story about the royal family's invitation.
"...I wonder if I would be honored to invite you and your guests to Camelback City. Our Majesty would like to entertain you for a few days."
Ye Shi continued politely.
"Please tell your Majesty for me that we appreciate his kindness, but our trip has already wasted too much time on the road. In order not to delay the agenda of the Community, we must speed up our journey to Dawn City...
I’m afraid I’ll have to visit again next time.”
"That... is such a pity."
The envoy made a regretful expression, but didn't say much. He just nodded respectfully and said.
"Please bring the greetings of the survivors of the Hump Kingdom to Dawn City. We will always be your friends and the friends of the survivors of the South Gate II. May the spirit of the Sand Sea be with you, and wish you a safe journey until the end of the universe.
The end.”
"Thank you for your blessings, I will take it back to my hometown."
Ye Shi smiled and nodded, bidding farewell to the king's messenger.
After finally taking care of all the entertainment, the group headed to the VIP waiting room of the station.
This station can also be regarded as one of the assets of Niuma Group.
The entire Luoxia Province's railways are basically completed by several collectively held companies in the alliance, but are simply handed over to companies registered locally to operate them on their behalf.
This naturally includes the section of Silver Moon Bay.
It is precisely because of this that the alliance had already made arrangements and temporarily closed the VIP waiting room before the group disembarked.
After all, there is a lot of traffic here, if there is any commotion or accident.
Dora, who was sitting in the waiting room, looked at Ye Shi eagerly and asked.
"Why the spirit of the sand sea? Don't the locals believe in the Silver Moon Goddess?"
"This involves local particularities."
Looking at the crowded platform outside the waiting room window, Ye Shi recalled the information collected on the official website and spoke in a casual tone.
"The locals originally believed in the Spirit of the Sand Sea, including the doomsday theory in the Sand Sea Spirit's belief, as well as the hometown plot of the desert, etc. However, as time went by, the end of the world did not come, and even Luoxia Xing
The seaside corner of the province can still maintain its beautiful scenery even without relying on the oasis system of the pre-war era, so the original rhetoric will naturally become outdated."
"As a result, some people who were dissatisfied with feudal ethics and ethics, after gaining a certain strength, made some secular improvements based on 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. It's the same as carrying a handful of sand from your homeland in your pocket. Another example is that believers who were born outside Luoxia Province don't even need sand. They can just go to worship once a week.
, and even doing charity can replace worship.”
Speaking of which, the last creed was added by Alliance players.
Ye Shi remembered that at first it was because a player with cat ears was regarded by local believers as the incarnation of the Silver Moon Goddess. Later, due to her and three friends' active performance in the local area, the legend of the Silver Moon Goddess was revived.
Added a few pages to encourage people to do good.
In short, since then, the believers of the Silver Moon Sect have had another cause.
Not only doing business and building churches, they also gradually began to do other businesses such as relieving victims, teaching people to read, and spreading knowledge.
Including the priest named Melgio whom they heard about in the Port of Golden Gallen, he is a faithful practitioner of this doctrine.
In a sense, this can be regarded as a kind of "passing on the fire from generation to generation".
"I see..." Dora nodded thoughtfully and suddenly said, "In that case, does it mean that as long as there is enough time, our theory about the 'Tree of Insof' will emerge?
New changes?”
"Absolutely," Ye Shi said casually, "As long as your society does not exclude the birth of new things... Actually, haven't you noticed? I seem to have mentioned to you before that your belief in the Tree of Insof
, itself is an improvement based on our 'dimensional theory'."
The Tree of Insof was first discovered by the crew of the Gemini. At that time, the Gaians were still divided into foresters and Qiu people. They lived scattered in the woods like primitive tribes and were in a completely uncivilized state.
After the crew of the Gemini passed on their discoveries to the Gaians, they were regarded as enlightening the latter.
However, the latter could not understand the concepts of ecological maintenance systems and high-dimensional worlds, so based on their own wisdom, they interpreted high-dimensional existences as gods.
This is actually a very clever method, and the forest man who came up with this method can be called a genius.
But later on, Tunnan's cleverness became a bit ridiculous, 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 actually been thinking of persuading the "ancestors", hoping to bring her people to join the world of the ancestors.
Or--
Let the ancestors descend to that backward and ignorant planet, and lead the people on that planet to achieve glorious evolution.
But now, she has finally let go of her obsession with a hint of naive fantasy.
Maybe the ancestors were right.
Keeping a certain distance is the greatest kindness.
Even if someone pulls them up to the sky, it doesn't mean that her tribe can ascend to heaven.
That is a completely different concept than taking one or two people away. After completely breaking away from the constraints of gravity, they will face problems that have never been encountered before as a unit of the entire civilization.
And those more difficult and complex problems will most likely never be solved by those who have not yet learned to walk...
Unless they completely abandon their civilization.
…
The train arrives at the station.
A group of people were preparing to get on the bus.
At this time, everyone met a "weird man" on the platform in front of the train.
His face was wrapped in white cloth, and he was wrapped like a mummy.
Even in a place like Silver Moon Bay, this kind of appearance can be considered avant-garde.
However, surprisingly, the locals did not look at him strangely, and even looked at him with a hint of respect.
And this respect is even better than the envoy sent by the king.
The man stared at Dora intently.
After the latter noticed his gaze, he also cast a curious look at him.
Ye Shi didn't notice his presence at first.
It wasn't until he noticed Dora greeting someone in the crowd and followed her line of sight that he discovered the strange guy.
How did a guy dressed like this get through security?
He thought so in his heart, and just as he was wondering who that person was, he saw the person reaching out and taking off the bandage on his face.
Looking at the pitted face that was ugly to the core of his soul, Ye Shi was stunned by his ugliness for a moment, and then recognized him at a glance.
