"To be honest, we have waited for you for too long."
Peng Xiaofei strode forward. Now in his thirties, he already had a general belly. When he was wearing a space engineer uniform, he actually showed a bit of leadership temperament. As he walked, he spoke with his body.
Elder Dore and Captain Gurtu on the side joked: "It's really weird to say that this ship seems to be able to understand human landing instructions, but there is no follow-up feedback at all."
Elder Dolei and Captain Gurtu looked at each other and smiled, and followed Peng Xiaofei's words and comforted him: "It doesn't matter, we didn't respond at that time."
"Well, I can only look at you now. I heard that you had in-depth communication with the initiates in the past?"
"We can't talk about in-depth exchanges. After all, the civilization of the initiates was too advanced compared to the ancestral civilization at that time. The ancestral civilization was more about listening to guidance." Elder Dolei replied humbly.
"Haha, that's a lot more advantageous than us."
While everyone was talking, they soon arrived at the dock where the Enlightener's spaceship was located.
When they saw the human engineers setting up a circle of instruments and equipment around the spacecraft, Dore and Gurtu's eyes flashed with a hint of displeasure, but they were soon attracted by the body of the spacecraft.
Under the shadowless lights of the closed dock, the hundreds-meter-long spaceship was parked horizontally on the wide ground, occupying a huge space. However, it did not give people the feeling of being bloated and clumsy at all. On the contrary, it was like a silver boat.
A touch of sophistication and agility arises spontaneously as soon as you look at it.
Elder Dolei pursed his lips, his eyes flickered, his chest kept rising and falling, and he sincerely praised: "It's so beautiful."
Although Gurtu had already seen this spaceship and even opened the hangar door, this was the first time he saw the spacecraft parked. At this time, he suppressed his excitement and said in a deep voice: "The Enlightener's
Miracle."
"Yeah... If nothing else, the speed of this spaceship alone is enough to make people jealous." Peng Xiaofei also smiled and agreed: "The next step is up to you."
"Yeah! Thanks!"
Elder Dolei had been waiting for this sentence for a long time. Hearing the words, he strode forward and quickly walked to the cabin door of the spacecraft.
At this time, the human engineers also stepped back and stood in a row on the edge, handing over the spacecraft's detection positions to the guests who came from afar.
Peng Xiaofei did not step forward, he just crossed his arms at the door with a faint smile on his lips.
If you look carefully, there is actually a touch of sadness hidden in this smile.
As all the Animated Star engineers - or to be precise, the "elite" engineers of the Kodo tribe came forward with excitement, all the human engineers looked at Peng Xiaofei in unison.
Among the human engineers present, a small number knew what was going on, and the expressions on their faces were indescribable. In short, they were very ambiguous. Others had complicated expressions in their eyes, and even felt a little unhappy.
After all... in the eyes of uninformed people, this spaceship came here on its own.
According to the principle of destination, this spaceship should belong to humans.
What's the deal with these Kodo people coming here?
But everyone did not speak, but waited quietly, watching the Kodo engineers standing in a row in front of the spacecraft, and then bowed deeply to the spacecraft with pious expressions and postures.
The sadness in Peng Xiaofei's eyes became even stronger.
At this moment, Elder Dolei took over a clumsy-looking notebook-like device from his entourage. After putting the device down, he knelt down on the floor, took a deep breath, and started typing.
Communicate instructions.
This is the linguistic encoding of the initiates from the ancestral memories.
Although the spacecraft did not respond when it was greeted by the Eyed Star last time, according to analysis, it was obviously because the spacecraft had just passed through the wormhole and blocked the wireless signal.
And this time... it stops right here.
It can't run away!
Time passed by second by second.
Suddenly, a slight sound, similar to the beating of a relay, came from the spacecraft. After a moment, the entire hull of the spacecraft began to tremble rapidly, and then, one after another, the lights inside the ship began to light up.
Elder Dolei's body shook violently!
He no longer cared about the human presence beside him, and prostrated himself on the ground. He loudly spoke the language from the memory of his ancestors in an excited and trembling voice. He repeated it over and over again, expecting a response from the owner of the spacecraft.
Wow! All the Kodo people fell to their knees, their piety making them afraid to raise their heads.
Elder Dore's voice echoed in the dock like a chant, mixing with the sound of the spacecraft to form a symphony.
Peng Xiaofei, who was in the distance, quietly watched the Kodo people's tricks, his eyes no longer able to hide the sad look with pity, and nodded gently.
After a while, the spacecraft began to rise upwards.
In an instant, a red siren sounded throughout the pier, and Aita's voice sounded in everyone's ears without a trace of emotion.
"Warning, we have received a takeoff request from the aircraft at Hangar 18 Pier. Please evacuate all personnel at Hangar Pier 18 to the blue area outside the red warning line within three minutes."
"Repeat, please all personnel evacuate outside the red warning line within three minutes!"
Following Aita's voice, a red laser quickly lowered from the ceiling, forming a square area of tens of thousands of square meters around the spacecraft.
Peng Xiaofei took a deep breath and shouted: "Evacuate quickly! The spaceship is about to take off, the dome is about to open, there is no air!"
Amid the sirens, Elder Dolei raised his head in shock.
All Kodo engineers also raised their heads at the same time.
In the red light that filled the sky, the spaceship in front of me was flying higher and higher, and in a moment it passed over everyone's heads.
"Withdraw!" Peng Xiaofei shouted loudly: "Drag them back!"
The human engineers who came back to their senses quickly stepped forward and without any explanation, carried the stunned Kodo engineers towards the rear.
Just kidding, as soon as the dome is opened, the air in the cabin will instantly escape into space, and the artificial gravity will disappear - they don't want to see guests from afar doing a message terminator experiment that challenges the vacuum of space - yes
, a widespread rumor is that if humans are exposed in the space environment, their blood will boil, and then they will explode and die. The reality is, although it is not that exaggerated, as long as it stays for more than 10 seconds, the human body will be damaged, and it will basically be damaged after one or two minutes.
Just burp farts.
(Note: In 1965, at the NASA Manned Spacecraft Center, an experimenter was exposed to a vacuum environment due to a leak in his spacesuit. He lost consciousness after 14 seconds. Pressurization started after 15 seconds, and he was rescued.)
It was only then that Elder Dore finally came to his senses. He bent his hands into claws and waved them at the approaching spaceship in the air, letting out a heart-rending cry.
