The little girl-like Gretchen stared blankly at the woman who appeared before her.
Upon hearing the girl's voice, Aponia slowly turned her gaze away from the 'knight' next to Gretsch.
She smiled gently at Gretchen in front of her.
She knelt down and, as always, gently stroked Gretchen's head.
“It’s me, Gretchen.”
"But you're not, Mother Aponia..."
Looking at the familiar figure in front of her, Gretchen hesitated, wanting to say something but holding back.
In her mind, Aponia should be in paradise, how could she possibly be here?
Without answering Gretchen's question, Aponia's gaze softened as she softly said, "Fifty thousand years has truly allowed you to grow a lot."
"Thank you for your hard work these past few days."
"From now on, Gretchen, leave her to us."
"us?"
Gretchen was puzzled.
Then, she saw Su, who had been standing beside her, smile slightly and say slowly:
"Yes, Gretchen, get ready, we're going home."
After saying that, Sue reached out her hand to the 'knight' next to Gretsch.
Inside the ark
Ling Yu, noticing the mental fluctuations, looked up.
"She's awake."
The moment the words left his mouth, Sue and Aponia opened their eyes at the same time.
Then, the previously sealed hibernation chamber also emitted white mist.
Amidst the expectant gazes of everyone, the glass shield of the hibernation pod slowly opened.
A beautiful young woman with long, sky-blue hair slowly sat up in her hibernation pod.
The girl covered her forehead with one hand and supported herself with the other.
Her delicate brows furrowed slightly.
Having slept for nearly 1,500 years, it still takes some time to adjust.
Good morning, little Greta. Did you sleep well?
Just then, a familiar voice came from the side, causing Gretchen's pupils to shrink.
"This sound..."
She suddenly looked to the side, but the moment her gaze fell upon him, Gretchen froze on the spot.
He stared at the crowd in disbelief.
Hey~ Did you miss me?
Alice smiled and waved to Gretchen.
Kevin smiled. "Welcome back, Greta."
Möbius chuckled, "You little sleepyhead, you slept way too long this time."
"Everyone……"
Gretchen stared blankly at the crowd before her, and then, tears of longing silently streamed down her face.
"Little sister Alicia..."
"Uncle Kevin..."
"Grandma Mobius..."
Mebius: "..."
Mebius, who had been smiling as Gretchen woke up, froze completely.
She glanced at Alicia, who was covering her mouth and chuckling to herself, and glared at her through gritted teeth.
Then, very patiently, she said to Gretchen, "Little Gretchen, you should call Mebius 'older sister'."
"Ah good."
Gretchen quickly replied.
She called out the name for Grandma Mebius almost unconsciously.
But she's not a child anymore; she has the ability to distinguish between good and bad.
"Sister Mebius."
Hearing Gretchen address him as Gretchen, Möbius nodded in satisfaction.
The title, though delayed by 50,000 years, has finally arrived.
Heaven knows what she felt listening to Grandma Möbius for 50,000 years in Paradise.
After finishing with Mebius, Gretchen looked at the others.
"Uncle Su, Uncle Kevin, Uncle Qianjie, Aunt Weili, Aunt Mei, Sister Hua, Sister Eden, Sister Ying, Sister Kosmo, Sister Pado..."
After reading out everyone's names one by one, Greta asked uncertainly, "Am I dreaming?"
"Of course not, my lovely little Gretchen. While I was away, you've grown into a wonderful young woman."
Alicia smiled as she wiped away Gretsch's tears.
Then, he gently pulled her into his arms.
Upon smelling that familiar scent from her memories again, Gretchen's emotions were calmed.
After a long while, Greta, having recovered, looked at everyone and asked, "Sister Alicia, aren't you...?"
Her meaning was self-evident.
But fearing it was all fake, he didn't say the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
"Little Gretchen, do you still remember the Paradise of the Past?"
Gretchen nodded: "I remember, back then, Alicia, you let us record our memories inside."
"I'm so happy, Gretchen, you still remember me?" Alicia said with a smile.
“The time I spent with everyone was the happiest time of my life, and I will never forget it,” Gretchen said earnestly.
“You’ve really grown up, Gretchen,” Velvi sighed softly.
The little girl who was always so small in my memory has now grown into a beautiful young woman.
"Was the instruction manual I wrote for you on the Ark useful?" Velvi asked.
“Yes, it works great, Aunt Velvi. I can use the professional mode now,” Gretchen said.
“That’s great,” Wilvi said with a smile.
Gretchen was only 12 years old when the Ark set sail.
At that time, she was completely clueless about everything.
Therefore, during the initial ark voyage, she used [foolproof mode].
Later, as she grew older and accumulated more knowledge, she switched from "foolproof mode" to "professional mode".
"So, Alicia, why did you bring up the Paradise of the Past?" Gretsch looked at Alicia again.
“Actually, we are all memory entities from Paradise?” Alicia said.
"Hey?"
Gretchen was taken aback, a look of surprise appearing on her small face.
He seemed unsure of what he had heard.
She looked at the others, and Kevin and the others nodded slightly.
This forced Gretchen, who had initially been skeptical, to come to believe it as well.
"What, disappointed?" Alicia asked with a smile as she tidied Gretsch's hair.
Greta shook her head: "I'm already very happy to see everyone again, but..."
Then, Gretchen asked another question:
Can memory modules move around outside?
“Memory can’t, but Soul Steel can,” Alicia laughed.
“Yes, our bodies are made of steel now, they’re really strong,” Pado said.
As she spoke, Pado smiled confidently: "Now, we're no longer afraid of getting hurt."
"Sister Paddo is amazing!" Gretchen clapped.
"Hehe, it's nothing, everyone has what I have." Even Paddo, a seasoned veteran of Paradise, couldn't help but blush when praised by Gretchen.
Greta chuckled and looked at Mei: "I didn't expect Aunt Mei to have stored memories in Paradise as well."
Upon hearing this, Mei shook her head and smiled at Gretsch's puzzled gaze, "You're mistaken about that, Gretsch. My situation is a bit complicated, but I didn't leave any data in Paradise."
"Hey?"
Gretchen was stunned.
It's neither memory nor the person themselves.
So, who is this Aunt Mei...?
"Alright, let's wait a bit before we catch up. Gretchen, are you hungry? You've been in hibernation for over 1,500 years this time!"
Alicia clapped her hands, interrupting Gretsch's thoughts.
"So long?" Gretchen herself was taken aback.
Although she knew she had slept for a long time, she really didn't expect that she had actually broken through a thousand years.
“Little Gretchen, do you remember who put you into a deep sleep?” Velvi asked.
Greta shook her head: "I don't remember. When that power descended, I lost consciousness."
"Even Gretchen didn't notice? I'm becoming more and more interested in that guy, So, who's been taking over the Ark."
Mebius whispered, a desire for exploration gleaming in his dark green snake eyes.
Without a doubt, if Suo were to fall into her hands, what awaited her would be a cold operating table.
"Alright, since we don't know, let's not think about it anymore. Let's go out; Xiao Yixin is still waiting for us outside."
At this moment, Alicia spoke up to remind her.
Although the reunion is joyful, we must not forget the little guide who led us on our way.
The thought of the kind-hearted Vita standing alone in the cold wind made Alicia want to give her a warm hug.
"What is Xiao Yixin?"
Gretchen looked at Alicia with a puzzled expression.
I'm curious about this name.
“She’s a lovely city agent, I’ll introduce you to her after we go out,” Alicia said with a smile.
Chapter 227
"Kosmo".
At this moment, Gretchen, who was talking with Alicia and the others, quickly locked her gaze on Kosmo at the back of the crowd and called out to him softly.
"Ok?"
Upon hearing Gretchen's voice, Kosmo cast a questioning glance at her.
