It's reasonable for me to have a two-way foil for a second-level civilization, right?

That's his home smart butler.

Like One, it belongs to weak artificial intelligence and is under the jurisdiction of Zero.

"This, is this zero-built?" He asked with a slightly trembling voice.

As soon as he finished speaking, he came back to his senses.

What are you talking about?

Who else built this city but Zero?

He quickly changed his words and said, "I mean...the layout of Dawn Star City 154 seems to be similar to Ross [-] City [-]?"

"Yes, Mr. Hope." The smart home butler quickly responded.

"For the sake of convenience and to give people a better sense of belonging, when building this city, the drawings of Ross 154 were directly adopted."

"Only the Academy of Sciences and some important places have been redesigned."

Hope suddenly realized.

Understood.

The main thing is to save trouble.

That's right, when you first arrive at your new home and face heavy construction tasks, Zero's computing power must be very tight.

"Hey! Hope!"

Just as Hope was standing at the gate, thinking wildly, a familiar voice interrupted his thoughts.

He turned around abruptly and looked in the direction of the sound.

I saw a blond man standing not far away, smiling and beckoning to him.

"Hancent?!"

"Your boy is here!"

Seeing the old man, Hope was both surprised and happy, and hurriedly waved and shouted loudly.

Obviously, the man named Hansent was not very satisfied with Hope's reaction.

I saw him straighten his face immediately, pretending to be angry and said: "I said Hope, is this how you treat an old comrade-in-arms who hasn't seen each other for hundreds of years?"

"What do you mean I'm here?"

"In terms of contribution value, I'm no lower than you, why can't I be the first to wake up?"

Hearing this familiar tone, a smile appeared on Hope's face.

He repeatedly apologized, "Sorry, sorry, it was just an accident."

Afterwards, he waved to Hansent: "Come to my house and have a chat. Strictly speaking, we haven't seen each other for a hundred years."

……

"Is there a lot of people in City No. [-] now?"

Hope reached out to take the teacup handed by the robot, and asked softly: "It seems that you have been here for a few days?"

Hearing this, Hansen raised his head and nodded proudly: "Of course, I have already passed a series of tests on the exoskeleton armor."

"Probably, I entered City No. [-] a week ago."

Hope nodded in response to Hansen with a smile.

As an old comrade-in-arms who has been with him for decades, Hope is naturally very clear about Hansen's personality.

Although his personality is a bit flamboyant, he is still reliable when encountering major events.

"As for the people..." After showing off, Hansen returned to the subject and shrugged helplessly, "Actually, there are not many people."

"You should have realized when you came just now, there are hardly any people on the street."

"After all, only a small group of people have been awakened now."

"Besides... there are still many awakened personnel who have not passed the test of exoskeleton armor."

Hope nodded, not much surprised by this answer.

"Don't worry, cities No. [-] and No. [-] are already under construction." He patted Hansen on the shoulder and comforted softly, "When the second and third batch of people wake up, the city will be lively. "

Hansen shrugged indifferently, as if he didn't care much about the city's population.

The next moment, he put his head next to Hope, his face full of encouragement, and said in a low voice, "Let's not talk about the urban population."

"How about it, are you interested in going out for a stroll?"

"You should have seen it when you came, right?"

"There are many active volcanoes on this planet."

"Because there are not many people now, let's act first and try to round up the surrounding area!"

Hearing this, Hope only felt his heart skip a beat.

Seemingly seeing the emotional expression on Hope's face, Hansen moved closer again: "This opportunity is not to be missed, and it will never come again."

"Don't forget, this is a brand new planet!"

"Don't you want to waste your precious time on the empty streets?!"

"Snapped!"

Hope reached out and patted the coffee table in front of him: "Stop talking!"

"I go!"

"time?"

"Tomorrow." The corners of Hansent's mouth rose rapidly, and he knew that, like him, Hope was not one to be idle.

While talking, he turned on his watch and pressed a few times on the small holographic projection: "I have already reported to the city management center."

"It's 10:21 in the morning, and it is estimated that the results will be available this afternoon."

"I've already thought about it, let's go to the crater for the first stop."

Thinking of the huge crater he saw on Xuannv-[-], Hope gradually became excited.

He hurriedly turned on his watch, and skillfully submitted an application for leaving the city to the city management center.

The reason is naturally to go out to explore minerals.

As grassroots employees of grassroots institutions under the Academy of Sciences, the City Management Center will generally not reject their applications.

"By the way." Hansen suddenly thought of something and asked casually.

"Your mineral exploration ship should still be there, right?"

"I heard that when the human fleet was heading to the Gliese 555 star system, it encountered a star thief civilization. At that time, a great war broke out, and many starships suffered unreasonable disasters."

The smile on Hope's face froze instantly.

seemingly……

possible……

Was his starship one of them?

"Hey hey hey! Brother, isn't it?!"

Seeing Hope's expression, Hansen panicked a little.

"Calm down, don't you still have this?" Hope twitched the corner of his mouth, waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "I'll take your mineral exploration ship tomorrow."

"... Is there a possibility that my exploration ship also has a problem?"

Hansen said in a low tone: "Otherwise, why do you think I stayed here for a whole week?"

Hope: "..."

"Mr. Hope." The voice of the home smart butler broke the slightly stiff atmosphere between the two.

"A message from the People's Alliance starship manufacturing factory."

"Your type VI mineral exploration ship has arrived at No. 6 Dock of Dawn Star No. [-] City, please go and check it."

Chapter 439 Dawn Star A2 Plain Central Volcano

Hope breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, he raised his eyebrows at Hansen beside him.

"Now, we have a ship."

"..."

After a brief silence.

"No! It's not scientific!"

"Why did your ship arrive before mine?"

"And it's the latest Type VI exploration ship!!"

Hope smiled and shrugged: "Who knows?"

"Maybe, if Zero looks at me pleasing to the eye, maybe he put my order ahead of yours?"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked towards the door. In the next time, he would go out and relax.

Behind him, Hansent's mournful wailing came.

……

the next day.

A small starship with a length of only 50 meters slowly left the city of Dawn Star No. [-].

"Hey bro, wrong route."

Hansen yelled from the side: "The volcano is on the other side, you're going the wrong way!"

Hope glanced at the satellite map and said with a smile, "It's not the same."

"Before prospecting, I want to go to see the waters next to City No. [-]."

……

The mineral exploration ship slowly landed on a huge reef.

Such reefs can be seen everywhere near the shore in the waters.

Huge reefs divide the waters into small lakes.

Although it is a lake, its average depth has reached more than 50 meters.

As for the central area of ​​the water area, the highest depth there even exceeds 500 meters, which can be called a small ocean.

"laugh!"

With the sound of airtightness, the hatch of the mineral exploration ship slowly opened.

Hope, wearing a space suit, carefully jumped off the exploration ship and walked to the edge of the reef, gazing at the azure water below him.

He raised his head, looked at the huge "moon" above his head, and said softly: "It seems that I have to take back my original opinion."

"What?" Hansent's inquiry came from the team's communication channel.

"This planet is quite beautiful." Hope bent down, sat on the reef, and reached out to turn on the radio function of the helmet.

The sound from the outside world was transmitted to his ears through sensors and circuits.

The sound of fine waves and the slight sound of the wind made his eyes daze for a while.

Looking at the blue waters in front of him, a long memory once again appeared in his mind.

It was not a good memory.

"call……"

Hope stood up, turned his head to look at the water behind him with a complicated expression, and said in a low voice, "Let's go, let's go to the crater."

……

A2 Plain Central Volcano, as the name suggests, is located in the central area of ​​A2 Plain.
