Litton is 12 years old this year. He has no mother since he was a child, and has been relying on his father to mine for a living.During this bug swarm, his father took him to a mine, but he narrowly avoided it.

But after returning, the situation has not improved.In their district, the ore resources were not rich in the first place, and everyone's life was also very difficult.After the bug swarm, mining companies unsurprisingly withdrew their capital and left, and they lost their source of livelihood.

Later, in the most difficult time, his father secretly took a piece of things home one day.Litton had never seen this kind of thing before, it was red and wet to the touch, and his father said it was edible, but Litton thought it was extremely unpalatable and a little disgusting.

But at that time, he was already too hungry, so he didn't care so much, he just quickly shared the piece of food with his father.

Later, his father started to go out early and return late, and gradually, he no longer took that kind of food back to eat, but he had the nutrient solution he used to eat, and the taste was much better than before.

They even secretly hid the inexhaustible nutrient solution. Every time they looked at the small box that was getting full, Litton always felt very happy.

But it didn't last long.

One day a group of people rushed into their house, rummaged through the things in the house, and snatched his box.And because his father had no money to pay the fine, he heard that he would be taken away as a slave and sold as a slave—in fact, Litton's father thought this sounded pretty good, at least he shouldn't starve to death.But when he thought of the children at home, he escaped as soon as he got the news, and hid again in the mine where they avoided the insect swarm.

Then never came out again.

Forgot to mention, here, the d732 is not completely cleaned at all.

After all this happened, Litton hesitated for a while between entering the cave to accompany his father, and rushing into the regional hall with a knife, but in the end he was taken by the uncle next door and embarked on the smuggling road to d732.

"I can't stay here any longer. The District Office is too tight-lipped, and now I can't dig out ore. Although there are more guards on the wall, but if you take risks, you may be able to cross the wall. As long as you get to 313, it is said that The regional office next door doesn’t care about mining at all, as long as you have a little strength, you can earn money to buy nutrient solution. Some people even make a fortune from this!” The uncle next door said, his eyes began to glow.

There were quite a few people behind him, all of them were thin and shabby, and their clothes were shabby, but listening to his words, they all showed longing looks on their faces.

And Litton also carried a small bag containing all his belongings, and slipped behind everyone step by step, feeling at a loss in his heart and a little bit of hope for the future.

But of course the road to smuggling cannot be smooth sailing.

They sneaked in the dark and hid in nearby mines during the day. Sometimes some people couldn't help digging some mines, thinking that they would enter 313 to sell some credits.But such knocking sounds attracted monsters hiding in the dark——

By the time Litton, covered in wounds and with a few seven or eight people, arrived at a separation wall that the uncle next door had mentioned, and that he could reach 313 after climbing over, the uncle next door was long gone—or should be said, the uncle Most are gone.

Some were trapped in the mouth of monsters, some escaped the pursuit of the district office and entered the wasteland but did not come out, and some were directly killed because they jumped over the separation wall.

And when they finally arrived here, after crossing over with infinite hope, they found that everything behind them was different from what the uncle said.

"Why—didn't you say that you can get to 313 by turning it over? Didn't you say that this should be the border area of ​​313, and there are always people who buy ore or hire labor to guard it? But why—here, here is wasteland. ——" A person sat down on the ground in despair, but two white marks were washed out of his dark face by the tears on his face.

Wasteland——As long as the wasteland is contaminated, they can't get out of it——

And the others are not much better than him. There is nothing in this world that is more desperate than hope that is right in front of you but disappears in an instant.

Only one person murmured: "It seems that we took a detour to avoid the people in the district hall, maybe—"

And then he also shut his mouth dejectedly, because everything was meaningless.

Litton also stood on a rock in a daze, subconsciously trying to avoid close contact with the wasteland under his feet, but when he looked around, those black, red and red colors occupied most of the land in front of him, and they couldn't get past the wasteland at all. Dirt out of this place.

Holding his small bag, he sat down slumped, the wound on his hand stained the bag dirty, but he didn't feel any pain at all.

Behind him is a desperate situation, but in front of him is wasteland.In this world, there is no way out.

"Woo, beep, beep, beep!

Suddenly, a strange music sounded in everyone's ears, accompanied by a second ensemble that seemed to be stuck - "Woo, beep, beep".

Everyone subconsciously shuddered, wanting to escape, but then they remembered that they were in 313, and there was no one to hide from.

But who would appear in this wasteland?Still playing such weird music?

Litton stood up from the stone, looked towards the source of the sound, and found that there were actually two S-2 robots tied together with metal ropes on the wasteland not far away.

Litton looked at them curiously, because these two robots were different from what he had seen before.Although the appearance is similar, they look very new. Not only is there no rust, the body is also polished, and the other joints also obviously look like they have been maintained and oiled.

And I don't know who painted some weird-shaped animals on their torsos, and painted colored lines around those animals, which seemed to express the meaning of radiance-although it was really very abstract.

Litton felt very strange, who would repair and maintain these abandoned robots?They are clearly useless.

And what are they going to do here?

Just as he was thinking, Litton saw that the robot that could play music fluently was dragging another robot to a small piece of soil that had not been eroded by waste.Then it carefully dug up a small plant that had just sprouted on it. While digging, it seemed to lower the volume of the music a lot, as if it was afraid that its movements would be affected by distraction.

Then it dug up the plant, put it in a small bottle from the belly storage bin, and handed the bottle to the seemingly malfunctioning robot behind it, which kept repeating "beep, beep" .

However, although the faulty robot may not have a good music player, other parts seem to be fine.It took the bottle and ran it smoothly and put the things into its own storage bin. After closing the bin door, it patted it, with a look of "it's definitely okay to put it here".

At this time, the previous robot also stretched out his hand, and patted the door of its storage compartment, seemingly quite satisfied, and then turned on the weird music again, turned around and pulled the other one to go back. Walk.

However, he turned his head and glanced at Litton, who was standing on the rock, and the music players of the two robots suddenly jammed.

After a while, 1434 rolled forward, with a green light flashing above his head, and asked hesitantly, "Hello, do you need help?"

On the other side, on Capital Planet, the news of the divorce between Marshal Chapman and His Excellency Rafael was like boiling water poured into boiling oil, creating a commotion.

No one expected that the first couple in the alliance would choose to divorce so calmly after 18 years of loving each other.The political forces represented by the two also suffered a huge blow.

Fortunately, His Excellency Raphael still chose to fade out of the public eye as before, and never took back his political assets from his ex-husband.

On the other hand, such news is just gossip for the lovely Josephine, although the scope of influence of this gossip is a bit large.

"I can't believe it," Josephine said with a candy in her mouth, while sitting on a school roof, jumping feet and her friends beside her, "I thought they had always loved each other very much, all these years , There has never been any other rumors about them outside."

Joan's face was indifferent, "Everyone thinks my parents are very in love with each other, but as far as I know, I already have several brothers and sisters outside."

Josephine's eyes widened and she turned to look at Joan.This was indeed the first time she heard Joan mention this matter, so she was a little surprised, but then she showed a sorry look on her face.

"Don't feel sorry," Joan said indifferently, "It's not a big deal to me, anyway, I just need to know that they won't divorce. And there are actually many such things, but many of us don't Just know."

"They're playing their own game, as long as they don't get divorced." Beverly added, "It's just that Mr. Claire will be sad for a long time."

The other two also had a look of sympathy on their faces.That Lord Clare is the only son of Marshal Chapman and Lord Raphael, who is only 14 years old this year.

"Then—" But then Josephine's face showed the curiosity of some little girls, "Is there anyone outside the Marshal?"

After hearing this, Joan turned her head to look at Josephine, but there was an inexplicable expression on her face.She and Beverly looked at each other, and after a while, she hesitated and said: "It is said that the marshal once had a lover who fell in love, but they broke up due to an accident. But I think even if they want to get back together, they probably won't be here Recently. And I believe that the marshal is definitely not the kind of person who will have entanglements with other people during the marriage."

Upon hearing this, Josephine immediately nodded firmly and said, "Even if everyone would do such a thing, the marshal would definitely not. It's just that I don't know who that former lover is."

As Josephine spoke, she showed a regretful expression, "It's a pity, why is the fate of His Excellency Raphael so rough——"

Joan and Beverly also sighed.

"However, I believe that no matter what kind of rough fate, Lord Raphael will be able to survive." Then Josephine showed a confident smile on his face, "He is so strong and determined, absolutely not Will be knocked down by something like this!"

Her two friends looked at each other, and both smiled, "That's right, nothing can defeat His Excellency Rafael."

But then they talked about something else.

"Aren't you going to the party at the Ravaduri Palace this time?" Joan turned her head and asked Josephine.

Hearing this, Josephine put away the previous happy look on her face, "What difference does it make if I go or not? I think it's good as it is now."

The party at Ravaduri Palace is held by each first lady.It is held once or twice a year, and the purpose of each time is the same.

Ravaduri Palace, also known as the Spring Palace, represents the reproduction and vitality of spring.And the evening parties held in this other palace have always been held for those young people.

The intelligent beings who have been ruled by Salimon for thousands of years have long lost many of their own cultures.And when they finally gained independence and wanted to trace their civilization back, they found that they had lost a lot and could never find it again.

In recent years, they have launched a cultural revival movement, and the cultural and entertainment industries have flourished.On the other hand, many people follow the clues and find out many traditional activities for human beings whose roots cannot be traced back.And this kind of formal dinner popular among the upper class is one of them.

And then, this kind of party has various functions.

The marriage between the major political forces has become a form of alliance in the political strife and annexation.And those young people who have grown up have become tools to consolidate the alliance in the hands of their parents.

Of course they also have a certain right to choose, but they are limited in the scope of their choices.In private, they can socialize with whomever they like.But in such a formal dinner, they must make the right choice within a limited range.And such a choice will also become an informal public announcement, as the first step of the two marriages.

This also means that those young people from a large family will continue to attend such dinner parties after they grow up, and then gradually confirm their future spouse in the dinner party.

The party at the Ravaduri Palace is the grandest and most high-end party of this nature, and it is an opportunity that all young people do not want to miss.

And no matter how close lovers are in private, if they cannot disclose their relationship at such a dinner party, then it is obviously impossible for them to get together in the future.Holding hands at such a dinner party is a formal commitment to your lover.

That is to say, if someone keeps refusing to attend such a dinner party, then in this high-end marriage market, he will lose the opportunity to get a well-matched partner.

Regarding what Josephine said at this time, her two friends looked regretful.
