The communicator soon read the unfamiliar contact signals from one of the floating islands. Hao Ren turned on the communicator, a man’s voice who tried to keep calm but the tone of the voice was visibly shaking spoke, "Alien spacecraft, please state your identity, please state your identity..."
This was the first time that the elves of Aerym had seen a strange space traveler appeared above their ‘mother planet’, their surprise and excitement was self-evident. For a civilization that had been struggling for thousands of years, no matter who the outsider was or what it held, any change was a great encouragement for them. Hao Ren wanted to experience what it was like to speak to a strange civilization, but after thinking for a moment, he pushed Hilda to the front and said, "I'll let you speak."
Hilda nodded gratefully, opened her mouth in front of the communicator and took her quite a while to calm down and asked, "Vimm, is it you?"
The communicator plunged into an extreme silence. The silence revealed a huge shock of someone at the other end of the communicator, and half a minute later a trembling voice asked, "Mother? Is it you? You’re back?!"
This time Hao Ren and his companions were shocked.
Hilda did not notice the changes in the surrounding atmosphere. She was happy and answered quickly, "It’s me, I was sent to another world, but fortunately, I got the help of the locals to return to Aerym. Now we’re going to land on the Dawnbreak Island…"
Hilda quickly negotiated with someone at the other end of the communicator and said to Hao Ren, "Please follow those triangular cruisers. They’re taking us to the landing site."
Hao Ren hurriedly let data terminal to follow the instruction. When the spaceship slowly moved closer to the floating island, he really could not hold it and asked, "That’s your son?"
"Yes, Vimm is my only child. It seems that he has been a leader for the time being," Hilda was proud of it. "And it seems that the order of Aerym has not broken down. The situation is better than I thought."
Hao Ren laughed awkwardly and thought that he really could not speculate on these super long-life creatures using common sense. Hilda looked almost as young as him, and her son was already a prince regent. These two days he treated Hilda as a girl of his age, and at this moment he felt like as if he was punched in the face.
Vivian noticed the strange expression on Hao Ren’s face, and of course, she could guess what this guy was thinking. She moved closer to him, poked his arm and said, "So I said you have to get used to longevity species. Now there’s an Exhibition in the Archaeological Museum and there are two pearls in the stone tools of the caveman which I’ve worn before… I’ve been thinking about it but I don’t know how to take it back. What a pity."
Hao Ren could not stop sweating. He sat on the chair, trembling and kept muttering, "You’re the best, you’ll live for generation after generation… Oh no, you already did…"
At this point, the spacecraft had arrived at the floating island in the middle of the space island chain, under the guidance of several ‘cruisers’. The details of the island gradually appeared in front of them. It was about the same size as the other islands. There was also a ring of man-made ‘hoop’ at its outer rim, which was about half a kilometer above the surface. The upper end of the hoop was shrouded in a hazy halo, covering the entire floating island with a layer of near-transparent shields, and a cloud of vapor condensation could be seen at the top of the dome-shaped shield. Obviously, the elves of Aerym had simulated the effect of an approximate natural atmosphere in this magnificent creation. At the same time, they saw a different part that was different from the rest of the islands: There were many very large buildings in the middle of the island, and there was a circle of walls around those buildings, which you did not see on other islands.
After asking Hilda, they knew that it was the ‘imperial court’ of the elves of Aerym and also Hilda’s Palace. However, the huge buildings were not luxurious, and there was no special royal pleasure. Its vast footprint was designed to accommodate functions such as parliaments, Assembly of Resource Management, Assembly of Technology and Assembly of the Isle Guardians. The place where the queen lived was only one of the towers in the great building.
However, the spacecraft could not land directly in the imperial court, and there was no platform for this big guy to landing. The Petrachelys Petrol Frigate, guided by the navigational signals, came to a prominent point on the edge of the floating island. A series of semi-circular platforms were supported by huge alloy skeletons, where the elves used it for take-off and landing. Because the entire facility was outside the floating shield, it was covered with an extra layer of translucent barrier to prevent air loss. The Petrachelys Petrol Frigate had found a larger platform for landing under the guidance. When the spacecraft was slowly descending, Hao Ren noticed that it had passed through a layer of rippling ‘membrane’, which should be the same thing as the shield over the floating island.
There were many elves waiting on the landing platform, men and women, there were hundreds of them. This should be the representative of the elves of Aerym. The ‘welcome group’ was obviously formed in a hasty. Some of them even with a puzzled face, and there were elves rushing in. Other than these elves, there was no guard of honor at the scene and no other welcome groups with bouquets of flowers and piles of brocades. Obviously, the elves of Aerym had abandoned this habit for a long time. The gate of the Petrachelys Petrol Frigate was slowly opened under the watchful eye of this group of elves. Hao Ren pushed Hilda to the front, letting her get off the ship first.
He then led the others to appear in front of the crowd one by one.
There was no other noble reason. It was just that these guys were a little nervous except Y’zaks...
As soon as Hilda appeared, the elves were obviously stirring up, and a tall blond young man, who looked almost as old as Hilda, stepped out of the crowd. He seemed to want to give Hilda a hug, but he hesitated due to the occasion, but Hilda offered him a hug and said, "Vimm, it’s great to see you again."
"Mother, I am so glad to see you safe and sound." The young man whom Hilda embraced was indeed the Prince of Aerym, and the only son of the incredibly young-looking Queen, Vimm.
Lily whispered beside Hao Ren, "They really look like brother and sister."
At this time Hilda turned around and introduced to Vimm a group of friends from a different world. "It was they who helped me. These people are very strong, from an incredible organization. This is Hao Ren. He is…"
Hilda finished introducing all of them, but because the concept of Space Administration was time-consuming to explain, she did not go into detail. Vimm quickly came to Hao Ren, bowing to him with the unique courtesy of the elf of Aerym and said, "Thank you for helping my mother."
Hao Ren reached out his hand and said, "Nice to meet you."
Vimm looked curiously at Hao Ren’s hand. Just like his mother, he was holding Hao Ren’s wrist and shaking up and down.
They walked along the broad trail toward the exit of the landing platform, Vimm and Hilda walked in front of them, and Vimm asked, "Mother, did you say you are in another world these days?"
"Yes, the other world, not the universe we now know, it’s truly another world."
"Is the space-time accelerator successful? Or... More successful than expected?"
"No, it failed. I time-travel into another world. It’s just a by-product of the accident, with very low probability and no duplication. The design of the accelerator itself is problematic, and the project has to stop. What about the situation? What happened after the explosion? How’s the Isle of Stars? And the Isle of Rainbow?"
"We’ll talk about it on the way." Vimm paused unnaturally. The pause implied disturbing news. At the moment there were several rounded, flat-ellipsoidal vehicles parked at the exit. He took his mother to one of them and at the same time pointing to the other car and said, "The guests please get on this floating car."
"No, there’s a lot of space in the floating car, and I want to ride with them," Hilda said and nodding to Hao Ren, "There are no secrets to hide from them. They don’t care about the secrets of a common civilization."
"Wait a minute." Before Hao Ren get on the car along with others, he suddenly remembered something and then turned to the Petrachelys Petrol Frigate and press the button. Beep, beep. "Okay."
Vivian was in the car. She looked at Hao Ren with a strange look and asked, "You use a motorcycle anti-theft lock to lock the ship?"
"Raven 12345 installed it... I must accept it, or the ship won’t be locked," said Hao Ren awkwardly.
Vivian, "..."
