The Yunliu Tower standing on the plain brought the latest news. The great lord of the tribe had already ended his journey in the fourth millennium early and returned to this land that he had shaped and protected.

As the youngest "visitor" in the ethnic group, today is a very special day for Mabel.

Because she was chosen as the attendant during the day when the Lord of the Clan's consciousness set out to leave this land, and in the years since then, what she faced was the body of the Lord of the Clan's temporarily left on the earth. The silent and majestic body was in a deep sleep for several years and never responded to Mabel's care and greetings.

The young "visitor" can only guess from the words of the older colleagues what kind of individual the lord of the clan is, imagine how he should establish communication with the great existence, and imagine how he should act more appropriately and comprehensively when the lord of the clan returns to this land and his majestic body suddenly awakens.

And now, this day has arrived early.

In the early morning, the morning light gradually brightens.

The bright orange-yellow sun had jumped out of the horizon, gradually hanging high in the sky like a dazzling fireball. The brilliant sunlight shone on the plain, coating the crops, towns and roads on the plain with a layer of gold. Mabel came out of the room and took a deep breath in the sun, and his eyes fell in the direction of the "Supreme Nest" not far away.

The ancient and mysterious fortress still stood quietly at the foot of the cliff, and the barriers cast from tough alloy blended with the cliff like a blade. The towers near the fortress and the atmosphere probes buzzed and buzzed in the sun. Occasionally, a subtle ring of static electricity escaped from one of the towers, creating a subtle resonance with the cloud tower on the distant plain - this is the signal that the lord of the tribe has returned to his nest.

Mabel felt that the scales under her arms and neck were slightly itchy, and her tail covered with black hard scales was also stretched involuntarily. She knew she was nervous, but who could not be nervous when meeting the lord of the clan?

What's more, this can be regarded as her "first interview".

For the wise creatures living on this warm and fertile planet that is only seven lights away from the sun, it is not a trivial matter to meet the lord of the tribe.

After quickly finishing washing and changing clothes, the audience members got into the car to the Supreme Nest. The scaleless six-legged pack beast led the vehicle to the entrance of the nest lightly and smoothly. Mabel poked his head out of the window and watched the magnificent door gradually enlarge in his view. When the pack beast approached the gate, two triangular small machines floated out of the inside of the gate.

This machine is the guardian of the lord of the tribe. Mabel's compatriots are quite familiar with it. Although they do not understand the principle for the time being, everyone knows that this small machine has assumed the responsibility of guiding the creatures of the world for a long time. Now, the once dull people have developed to the stage where they can survive alone in nature, so most of these guardians have returned to the lord of the lord of the lord of the lord of the lord and various bases to undertake the most basic security work.

The two small machines carefully scanned the pack beast and the car behind the pack beast with their dark red one-eyed eyes, and then quickly released it.

This was the most ordinary daily check-up work, but Mabel exhaled hard. This reaction made the colleague sitting next to her see it. The more experienced colleague suddenly laughed: "Mabel, you are starting to be nervous again."

"I'm not nervous!" Mabel retorted in panic, but then his voice lowered, "Okay, it's actually a bit..."

"It's normal to be nervous. When I first talked to the Lord of the Clan, I was as nervous as you. I even forgot to respond to the Lord of the Clan, and asked him to repeat the question three times before he could react."

"Ah?" Mabel heard this from her colleague for the first time, and she opened her eyes wide in surprise, "Wasn't the lord of the clan angry?"

"Of course not, the lord of the clan..." The colleague paused for a moment when he said this, as if he was considering a more appropriate vocabulary. "The lord of the clan is more patient and kind than you think. He does not care about worldly etiquette and hierarchy, but correspondingly, he will care more about some 'essential' things..."

"The essential thing?" Maybel was a little confused, "What does this mean?"

"...It's not easy to explain," the colleague thought for a while and spread his hands, "because I also heard from others, and what I had to say was something like 'group mental health'?"

Mabel felt that the doubts in her heart were not resolved, but became stronger than before, but she soon had no chance to continue asking questions - accompanied by a mechanized synthetic radio coming from outside the car, the audience arrived at the "flow channel entrance" in the nest fortress.

Following the prompt, Maybel and his colleagues left the car, and a square with many forks appeared in front of her. She quickly found one of her own among the forks - her name floated on the projection above the intersection, and a traffic floating board fixed on the chute track was already waiting for her.

The colleagues said goodbye to each other, and Mabel followed the instructions to stand on the metal plate. With the rapid acceleration of the metal plate, the scenery on both sides of the road began to retreat in her sight. She soon left the square, away from the colleagues on other forks, and advanced towards a room deep in the nest.

As she was about to enter the closed area, she subconsciously raised her head and looked at the platform at the end of the square.

A huge and heart-stirring body was quietly crawling on the platform. It looked like some kind of ancient giant beast with amazing wings and strong torso, but it was cast from cold steel. It had been crawling there for countless centuries. Even if it was carefully maintained and cared for, time still left countless mottled marks on the steel body.

Mabel remembers that the elders in the clan once said that it was the "carrier" used by the lord of the clan when he first came to this land.

[The book-chasing app recommended by an old book friend who has known me for ten years, wild fruit reading! It's so easy to use. I drive and pass the time by reading aloud before going to bed. You can download it here www. ]

It is said that such a body is not the beginning of the lord of the clan, but comes from an older and distant race. The lord of the clan imitated the appearance of this ancient race to create his original carrier, and used this carrier to cross the vast sea of ​​stars. In ancient times, it arrived on the land that was still a desolate at that time, sowing the initial vitality here.

And that ancient and distant race is still the most trusted and close ally of the gentry leader - an indispensable travel companion for the gentry leader when "traveling" in the sea of ​​stars.

To be honest, these distant and vague things are really difficult for Mabel to understand. In fact, even the elders in the clan do not know much about these things. They just occasionally hear some distant stories from the words of the clan leader, and then use their own understanding to explain them, and teach them to young children.

Mabel retracted his gaze and put the associations in his mind about "far travel", "star sea" and "ancient race" for the time being. The light around him was gradually softening, and she had entered the confined space inside the nest.

After a quiet moment of waiting, the speed of the traffic floating board gradually slowed down. When the corridor reached the end, Mabel looked forward and saw that she had been sent to the "Acceptance Room", which was one of the most familiar rooms in this nest.

The lord of the clan was waiting for her in the deepest part of the secret room of the audience.

A rectangular alloy creature that was several people tall stood quietly at the end of the room. A glimmer of light flashed on its silver-gray shell. A "eye boy" with a red light could be seen at the top of the shell. Some kind of crystal-like "eye" was quietly staring at Mabel who was jumping off the traffic floating board.

On both sides of the standing rectangular machine, you can also see many small equipment running smoothly, and a low buzzing sound echoes throughout the room.

This low buzzing sound is the sound of the clan leader thinking.

Maybel swallowed.

The scene here is no different from what she has seen in the past few years, but she knows that what she has seen today is no longer the cold ancient machines of the past few years - among which an ancient and great consciousness is now active, and the consciousness of the Lord of the tribe has ended its far-reaching journey in the sea of ​​stars and has now returned to his loyal body.

"Mabel, certified childbirth individual, FX-1234551S32, don't be nervous, take a few steps forward and let me see you clearly."

The voice of the lord of the clan sounded in the room, low, calm, but inexplicably relieved.

Mabel immediately swallowed hard, then walked forward a few steps and came to the tall machine.

The dark red "eyes" at the top of the machine looked at the petite girl standing in the room with scrutiny - the endless thinking code flowing inside the machine.

Yalong people, the 733rd generation of Group B, healthy, adult individual, the main heart rate is high, she is a little nervous, but within the standard value.

"Hello!" Mabel finally reacted. She bowed in panic, and her voice was so loud that she was startled, "Clan...Clan...Clan..."

"Master of the clan, this is the name you gave me. Don't bite your tongue for this title," the calm and majestic voice sounded again in the room. "If you feel that the word is difficult to pronounce, you can also call me 'Omega' directly. This should be a simpler pronunciation in your language."

"Ah... no no, no, I have no problem with my language skills!" Mabel was stunned for a moment, and then waved his hand quickly. She didn't know what she wanted to say. The first conversation with the lord of the clan was completely inconsistent with any of her previous imaginations. "I just... I'm just a little nervous."

"It's okay, I get used to it when I'm nervous. Few people are truly a lifelong social terror," the voice of the lord of the clan is always so slow. "I had a friend who said this a long time ago."

"Lifelong...social terror?" Mabel blinked, a word beyond cognition made her temporarily forget the tension, "What does social terror mean?"

"...This is a word from a distant alien star, which refers to... Forget it, let's explain it next time."

The reaction given by the clan leader surprised Mabel. The young sub-dragon girl obviously heard some helpless and lazy feeling from the sound echoing in the room, but she did not dare to point this out, just lowered her head and listened honestly.

She heard the clan leader continue, "Mabel, I have been paying attention to you. You are a young and energetic child. Next, I want to ask you some questions, you can treat this as a relaxing chat."

Maybel nodded subconsciously, but then opened his eyes wide in surprise: "You have been following me? But you have been..."

"My Lord consciousness has been traveling around the journey for many years - but that doesn't mean I don't know what's going on here," the voice of the Lord of the Clan seemed to have a smile. "Mabel, I always pay attention to every planet I can perceive."

Maybel nodded as if he understood.

She is ready to face every question raised by the shelter, shaper and watcher of this land.

And in the deepest part of this ancient lair, in the main server array hall where "audiencers" have no right to step into, the server nodes are running calmly with a low buzzing sound.

Omega's thinking flows in this huge computing array, and at the bottom of his thinking, there is a conversation that spans the vast sea of ​​stars:

"To the Loren-Nei Joint Cruise, after a summary and analysis of the latest collected data, I believe that the training plan on the planet Omega One has been successful, and the Along people have grown into a healthy and prosperous group. Based on this, it can be proved that the process of stable adulthood in the Neui civilization under the influence of the pioneer group is replicable - Omega."

"To Omega, I am very happy to hear the news of the successful project. This long and large-scale observation project has finally achieved gratifying results, which will play a crucial reference role in the team's subsequent development of contact plans in the face of native civilizations in the pioneering operation.

"In addition, I convey to you the sigh of some anonymous people from the Immortal Matrix: This project will start from now on and I really don't know which year and month it will take to achieve a result. It seems that it is thanks to your whim back then.

"We look forward to more observational information - the rotating navigator of the United Fleet, Tyr."
