They already have a chat group, why bother with the plot?

"Thank you, Sister Aili."

After Vita He Guang finished speaking, she quickly picked up her camera, pressed the shutter a few times, and recorded the unfamiliar scene before her.

"Sister Ellie, what is this?"

A gasp rang out, and Yixin and Yunxu were standing in front of a giant pink doll.

The one making the sound was naturally the lively and cheerful Xiao Yixin.

"This is called Houmu, a popular toy character on our planet?" Alicia walked over and explained with a smile.

After saying that, she chuckled softly, "Want to touch it?"

"Yes!" Yixin replied eagerly.

"..."

Everything inside the World Serpent was so new and exciting for the six little Vitas.

Alicia patiently answered all of Vita's questions.

at the same time

Sirin and Gretchen, who were playing in the room, were also drawn by the commotion outside.

The reason why Sirin appeared here was naturally because Ling Yu had told Alicia about it beforehand, and then Alicia sent Gray Snake to find her.

They discovered that the orphaned mother and daughter lived in a desolate little village.

Alicia immediately went to bring them to live with the World Serpent.

As a result, Celine and Grey, who looked only a few years older than her, became playmates.

"Gresh, is that your mother?"

Sirin looked at the larger Gretsch next to Kosmo, and then at the face that resembled the smaller Gretsch by seven or eight points. She looked at the smaller Gretsch and asked.

The two Gretchens, one large and one small, stared at each other, both stunned.

Ling Yu also looked at the little pufferfish with curiosity.

At this time, Sirin is still a little girl with long, light purple hair cascading down her back like a waterfall. Her delicate little face is full of cuteness, and she doesn't yet have the arrogance she will have later.

“No, Sirin, she should be considered my older sister,” said Little Grey.

"Oh, really?"

Sirin was taken aback, then quickly apologized to Gretchen, "I'm sorry, Gretchen's sister, I speak a little fast, please don't mind."

"It's okay, it's okay, I won't get angry over something like this."

Greta smiled gently.

Then, Gretchen the Elder turned her attention to Gretchen the Younger.

I looked at my tiny self with a touch of emotion.

She crouched down and smiled at little Greta: "Long time no see, my other self."

"Hmm, long time no see. The colors on you have become much richer." Hearing Big Gresh's words, Little Gresh nodded slightly and looked at Big Gresh.

"Yes, I also experienced a lot during the voyage of the Ark."

After Big Gretsch finished speaking, Little Gretsch stared straight at her chest.

Big Gretchen was taken aback. Following the other person's gaze, she discovered the bottomless chasm in her own skin.

How could she not understand her own past thoughts? Instantly, Greta's cheeks flushed slightly.

Even when facing her past self, she still felt shy.

However, little Gretchen only lingered for a moment before turning her gaze to the side.

She asked in a clear voice, "Kosmo, do you like it?"

"Ok?"

Kosmo, who had been standing silently to the side, was taken aback for a moment by Gretsch's words and looked at Gretsch with some confusion.

"what do you like?"

In response, little Greta looked at Kosmo with wide eyes and asked in a very innocent voice, "Does Kosmo like me, the big one?"

"Kose said I'd understand when I grew up, but unfortunately I'm a memory entity, and the only reference I can have is Blanca's mother. But now, the real me is back. So, is the grown-up me the kind of person you like?"

In short, he silenced Kosmo.

Upon hearing this, the others also showed expressions of anticipation and excitement.

What Greta said is absolutely right.

It might not have worked before, but Gretchen has grown up now.

Their ages are over 5, so the original age difference between the two is no problem at all in the face of such a huge number.

Upon hearing what Little Gretsch said, Big Gretsch also subconsciously looked at Kosmo.

As the person who accompanied her throughout her childhood, her longing for Kosmo was no less than that for her parents.

Over the millennia of the Ark's voyage, this longing has only grown stronger.

I dream about him almost every night.

Moreover, in terms of figure, while Big Gretchen may not be as good as Aponia, she is now almost the same size as Eden and Alicia.

In addition, I've learned a lot more.

Attachment will gradually evolve into romantic love.

"I……"

Despite being stared at by so many people, Kosmo remained expressionless.

But when he saw Gretchen's expectant expression, his heart, which had never fluttered before, suddenly started pounding.

Before Kosmo could answer, a happy smile appeared on Gretchen's face.

With her ability to distinguish colors, how could she not sense Kosmo's current emotions?

So, he took the initiative to defuse the situation, saying, "Alright, my other self, you know Kosmo isn't good with words, let's give him some time to think about it."

"Um, okay."

Little Gretchen had no intention of forcing Kosmo.

Like Gretchen, she also found her answer in the chaotic colors of Kosmo.

Well, I'm a little resentful.

I wish she could grow up...

“Kosmo and Gretchen, I think they’re pretty good. What do you think, Mebius?” Alicia smiled and looked at Mebius.

Möbius glanced at her indifferently and said casually, "Why ask me? I'd rather conduct more experiments than think about such things."

"Oh dear, does that mean to let them run wild? How lovely, Möbius?"

"Shut up, Alicia, or I'll kill you!" The snake's pupils glowed with a deep green light.

"So I guessed right?" Alicia smiled slyly.

"..."

Just as everyone was engrossed in the pairing of Gretchen and Kosmo, Ling Yu found Mei.

"Mei, do you know where Twilight Street is now?"

"Twilight Street?"

Upon hearing Ling Yu's question, Mei pondered for a moment and then began typing on the keyboard.

Soon, a map of the entire Earth appeared on the giant screen.

It then quickly landed and marked a location.

"The once-glorious Twilight Street has long been reduced to ruins by the cleansing of the end, and a new city has been built, so if you're looking for something, I think you'll be disappointed."

Mei, having locked onto her position, looked at Ling Yu and said.

"It's nothing, I was just taking a look." Ling Yu, who had marked the coordinates, lightly gripped the key in his hand and said with a smile.

He then left through the imaginary space.

When Ling Yu arrived at his destination, he was surprised to find that the Twilight Street of the previous civilization was now Sky City.

"This is really..."

Looking at the vast city before him, Ling Yu was momentarily speechless.

It truly is full of serendipitous encounters.

After reflecting on his feelings, Ling Yu closed his eyes and dispersed his spiritual energy in all directions.

It instantly enveloped the entire city.

The very next second after the cover was applied, Ling Yu opened his eyes.

"found it."

he whispered.

Ling Yu hadn't expected that Pado was buried so deep, a full 500 meters underground.

He managed to dig that deep all by himself and even climb out.

As expected, even the weakest fusion warrior is a fusion warrior.

"..."

When Ling Yu unearthed Pado's buried treasure, he discovered it was an exquisitely crafted box.

Its style is very similar to European treasure chests.

There is a keyhole in the center.

Ling Yu took the key that Pado had given her from the bag and inserted it into the lock.

however

There was a click.

The key didn't break, but the lock cylinder did.

After a brief silence, Ling Yu also expressed his understanding.

After all, it's been buried in the soil for over 50,000 years, so it's normal for it to be brittle.

Ling Yu put the key away, placed both hands on the sides of the treasure chest, and with a little force, opened the long-sealed chest.

Immediately afterwards, a peculiar smell emanated from the treasure chest.

Then, Ling Yu saw several items sealed inside with plastic wrap.

Handlebars, coins, aluminum cans, etc.

All sorts of things that we often encounter in life.

Apart from gold coins, most other things are things that no one would even glance at if you left them on the street.

However, Ling Yu clearly understood that these items held greater sentimental value for Pado than their intrinsic worth.

After sorting through the items inside the treasure chest.

Ling Yu found a group photo inside.

The photo shows the thirteen heroes, all wearing swimsuits, and except for Qianjie, everyone has a smile on their face.

I gently opened the plastic wrap and took the slightly faded photo in my hand.

As the ripples of sculpted energy swept by, the originally faded photograph gradually regained its color.

In the blink of an eye, it transformed from an old photograph into something brand new.

It looks like it was just washed.

After staring at it for a long time, Ling Yu remembered a summer event he had done in a game.

At the end of the story, it seems that Alicia and the others did indeed take a picture.
