Chapter 778 Tilan's Little Problem

'The road to the stars is far away, and the deep sea is deserted.'

This sentence is a motto that has been circulated since the early Fourth Era, when humans left the Earth and entered the vast deep space. Now, Tilan once again realized the meaning of these few words.

After the starship gradually sailed away from the territory of the Federation, everything became "quiet". The countless sounds and information on the Internet disappeared. All that could be heard by the ears and seen by the eyes were the people and things around them.

"Although I feel anxious because I don't know what the situation is like outside, this kind of life is surprisingly fulfilling." Dolores said this to Tilan at breakfast one day.

The eldest daughter of the incense workshop did not stay in the Federation to inherit the family business, but chose to leave with Tilan and enter the vast starry sky.

"Because I can take control of my life now." Tilan replied.

"The animals originally live in an environment where they are familiar with every corner around them, including the terrain, passages, other animals around them, etc. Such a familiar environment will give them a sense of stability and security."

"But as human beings have developed to this day, most of the cognitive world has been filled and occupied by the Internet, and much of the information on the Internet is beyond our control. It produces new things every day, and there are also various videos and manuscripts that spread anxiety in order to attract attention. In such an environment, it is very difficult to maintain self-stability and comfort."

"Most people cannot escape the influence of the social framework. Even if you have the resources and strength to do something, you still have to consider the opinions and ideas of others." Tilan answered with her back straight at the dining table. She used a knife to cut the scones on the plate and gave one to Dolores.

"It's like the old fable where a man gives his friend a bird cage and tells him to hang it in his living room, betting that the friend will buy a bird soon."

“My friend didn’t believe it at first, but things turned out as he expected, and he had no choice but to buy a bird.”

"Because he has to explain to every guest why there is an empty birdcage hanging there, which takes up a lot of his energy and time."

"Even if he is not interested in raising birds, he has to do what is in line with the public in order to reduce misunderstandings and troubles. This is the price of going against the environment."

"The comprehensive promotion of information will constantly change the environment, and the environment that changes every moment makes people feel anxious and out of control." Tilan put down the knife, picked up the finished pancake with both hands, took a light bite, and tasted it slowly. The small amount of flour on the surface made the tongue feel a little rough, but the soft dough inside had a hint of heat and fragrance after biting it open. Occasionally one or two sesame seeds were like a pleasant surprise, bringing a variety of taste levels.

Dolores looked at the girl in front of her, who was enjoying her food seriously and happily like a child, and she also felt a little happy and smiled.

I always feel that Tilan has become more lively and happy after leaving the Federation, or maybe everything over there is too heavy.

After finishing their breakfast, the two took a walk on the aisle outside the starship. On one side of the aisle was a huge, transparent metal glass through which one could see the space outside the starship, while on the other side were various plants and flowers that looked like a garden. A faint fluorescent light shone down from above the plant boxes, providing energy for the growth of these plants.

"Is this trip to the Sigma Mechanical Council Tilan's long-standing plan?" Dolores asked.

"Well, I've wanted to take a look before, but there are always a lot of things going on in the southern star region. Due to my job, it's difficult for me to leave casually." She thought about it. The Sigma Mechanical Council is much larger than the Holy White Melody. It's not something that can be visited and understood in just one or two months.

"Before I left this time, I explained everything to them. Even if I'm away for a long time, they can handle it according to the new management framework."

"As for Pulin, my agreement with her is that the Southern Star Region can accept the promotion of her policy ideas, but the military structure and industrial system cannot be changed in the short term."

"Did Pulin agree?" Dolores felt that the conditions given by Tilan were a bit harsh. After all, looking at the style of the Central Star Region, they always wanted everything.

"I agree." Tilan leaned against the railing, looking at the endless starry sky outside and answered.

"Because if I don't give it to her and keep standing in her way, it will be almost impossible for her to unify the Federation. The final result may be that we will confront each other for nearly a hundred years until we both die of old age."

"This result is not good for me or her, so I gave in and let her realize her idea first. I will come back in 20 years to check the situation of the country at that time."

"If everything is as she said, and everything develops in a good direction, and the progress brought by the fire covers up and makes up for the contradictions in society, then I will step back another 20 years." Tilan combed her hair.

"After 40 years, I will come back for the second time. If after years, her methods can still bring endless vitality and progress to this country, then until she dies, I will no longer compete with her for everything in the federation."

"If she can't maintain stability in the first 20 years and the internal conflicts of the country cannot be bridged, then I will take over the country from her and manage and lead it in my own way."

"Similarly, if the situation collapses 40 years from now, I will do the same thing."

"But." Dolores stood behind Tilan and thought about it.

"Even if Pulin is willing to hand over power at that time, what if the people around her don't allow it? For them, it would be a death sentence."

"Then it's not up to them." Tilan turned around and smiled faintly.

"Adults have the say, children's opinions are useless." She had too many ways to get rid of that group of people, but even during the civil war in the Federation over the years, it did not show any real violence or cruelty to these high-level officials, which gave many giant companies some kind of illusion.

The essence of power is not simply a position or a number on a card, but that when you ask a person to do something, he is willing to listen and obey the rules you set.

She didn't mind doing it again, cleaning out these rotten borers, as Amy Larin had done.

"Because of my personality, I don't quite agree with Pulin's approach, but if she can really succeed on this path, I will also patiently and humbly absorb the advantages from it and use it to improve my own methods and ideas." Tilan continued to move forward along the aisle.

"I will probably live a long time, especially with the hibernation technology left by Shui Yanqing and the others. Even the people around me will be able to live until then."

"If Pulin can achieve her dream safely, I am willing to give her the opportunity, because I am not fighting with her just to win."

"My real goal is simply to hope that this civilization, which has been standing still for so long, can break free from its shackles and stride forward again." "When my mission is completed, I will probably sink into the depths of the Sea of ​​Aijaka like those predecessors and enter eternal sleep." Tilan said lightly about her inevitable death.

"You are still so precocious." Dolores couldn't help but step forward and scratch Tilan's small nose with her fingers to interrupt her.

"When we first met, at Edes Academy, you talked about the distant future and this vast world, as if you had never thought about what kind of life you should live at your age."

"You were only about 16 years old at that time, and you were busy studying and training every day. Later, you went to college. I heard from them that you rarely went out to play. You were busy with various things as a singer. Then you graduated. Except for the two years you disappeared, I don't know. In the remaining years, you always spent your energy on those big things."

"Do you know how to fall in love? Do you know what kind of clothes look most attractive on girls? Have you seen the latest film and television performances? Although these are not necessary for you, I still hope that you can have some hobbies and interests of your own, instead of being overwhelmed by overly grand ideals." Dolores said, hugging Tilan in her arms. Because of their growth, the two now look like a mature older sister and a still young and innocent younger sister.

"Come with me to the parties and activities these two days. You don't hold any position now anyway, so you can't shirk your responsibility this time." Dolores put her hands on the girl's shoulders, like a big black cat catching a chicken, so that she couldn't run away easily.

"Uh, this..." Although Tilan was not afraid of facing various difficult officials and dangerous enemies, she was still a little nervous and didn't want to go when invited to a party by a friend.

"Just stay home." She protested quietly, thinking that she was already a mature adult and should be able to choose how to live her life.

"No." Dolores stretched out her voice and looked at the pregnant girl with amusement. She finally found Tilan's little weakness.

"Tomorrow I will put some light makeup on you and dye your hair, and then our 'Miss Danterian' will be able to make a comeback." She thought of what happened in high school a long time ago, the alias that Tilan used to cover up.

"It just so happens that I remembered that the young people on the starship are organizing a card battle competition. Without various external aids and airdrops to the mountains, the chances of winning the championship among the crowd on a starship alone are still very high, so many people want to try their own skills and luck." Dolores said about the event poster she saw recently.

"You should also go and participate. In addition, you need to meet 10 friends at the event and add their contact information."

"Ah, do I need to add friends and contact information?" Tilan couldn't help but complain.

"Of course, otherwise you would definitely do nothing but play cards." Dolores was well aware of Tilan's habits and knew that she was the type of person who would do as little as possible.

"Go, go, you can't run away this time." Dolores repeated in Tilan's ear, and then pinched Tilan's earlobe on a whim.

It's very soft, and seems to have a faint invisible fluff. Tilan is indeed still a child and her body has never grown, Dolores thought.

This action made Tilan let out a slight "ah", and then she nimbly broke free from Dolores' arms and jumped several meters away, keeping a certain distance from this good friend.

"You are still so sensitive." Dolores was already aware of this, and she didn't know how Tilan judged contact.

She often gets injured and bleeds during battles, but she ignores it calmly. However, when it comes to close contact in daily life, she is always shy and overly sensitive.

The two chased each other for a while on the aisle, and then walked side by side holding hands.

After the heavy chat and cheerful play just now, both of them calmed down. How to describe this feeling? It is probably like the morning after the rain, the grass leaves dripping with dew, the green grass leaves without any dust, simple but with a faint sense of happiness.

"Tilan, please compose some gentle and beautiful songs. This is your true nature." Dolores remembered something.

"Although you left everyone with the impression of being a 'dark singer' and 'dark wind' at first, I know that was just your resistance and rejection in the face of many unbearable things."

"Now all the noise and troubles are very far away, so -

Can you show your innocent and lovely side? "

"What I like is the girl who likes to watch the sunset in the club activity room, the girl who sits by the fireplace and draws graffiti to recall the happy daytime, and the girl who goes to the pond with a big white duck in her arms." Dolores recounts the green and immature figure in her memory, the Tilan who was not as calm and composed as she is now.

"Innocent and cute?" Tilan said this to Dolores, closing and opening her eyes with a hint of playful suspicion.

"I never thought I was cute back then, nor did I think I was very innocent." She shook her head, unwilling to admit it.

"That's something many girls would do. Also, the word 'innocent' seems to imply that I'm a little silly, just like Lalamia." In her mind, although Lalamia is a very smart mechanical angel, her personality is a little simple and cute.

Lalamia was also on board this trip to the Sigma Mechanical Council, but she should be chatting with several T1 super-level AIs on the bridge and sharing recent interesting things. Although the composition principles are completely different, the two sides do resonate in some experiences and feelings.

"Oh, so this is how Tilan sees Lalamia. When I tell her one day, she will probably come to you crying again." Dolores chuckled with her hands covering her mouth.

"Don't grab this kind of handle." Tilan felt that she was indeed a little "lively" today, to the point of losing her usual steadiness and meticulousness.

"Okay, since Tilan has asked me, as a good friend, I will definitely not tell anyone." Dolores raised her finger, closed one eye slightly, and smiled knowingly.

"But you have to accompany me to participate in the card battle event tomorrow. Also, remember to make a few new songs. They should be gentle, cute, and lively. They can't be too powerful or grand, and they don't have any allegorical metaphors. Just the simplest, plain and pure happiness."

"You seem to be giving me a difficult problem." Tilan complained.

"Yes, that's the problem called life." Dolores looked back and smiled.
