Ark pigeon mode, activated!

He held out his hand to her, raising his eyebrows slightly in invitation.

It might be more fun if three people play together.

However, this speech still had some problems. As expected, Xi rolled her eyes, which made her angry.

Ling slightly appreciated his sister's amusing reaction, then took Camilla's other hand and spoke softly.

"It's a rare opportunity to relax during this busy time, so I might as well take advantage of it."

Camilla glanced at her, then turned to look at Xi and fell into deep thought.

He usually keeps a petite figure, which is fine when he's with Xi, but with Ling, the feeling of being a child brought out to play by his parents becomes a bit strong.

However, he would not adjust his body for such a thing. The body shape he maintains is often the most appropriate in this state.

The three of them were playing in the city together. Under the majesty of the eldest sister, Xi became much quieter. Most of the time, it was Camilla and Ling who were chatting. But Camilla was not a person with low emotional intelligence. She would communicate with her from time to time so as not to ignore her.

The sky gradually darkens and the lights come on.

In order to save resources, the isolated city only keeps lighting on the main roads and some important facilities at night. The residents have long been accustomed to this and prepare to go to bed early.

Xi was thinking that today's work was almost over and she could go back to the painting to continue staying there, when she was surprised by what Camilla said.

"Xi, let's go to your world in the painting."

Xi pursed her lips slightly, wanting to refuse, but as her eyes wandered, she met Ling's somewhat playful gaze, and she couldn't help but make up her mind and nodded in agreement.

The pen, ink, paper and inkstone appeared automatically. She splashed ink and wrote with just a few strokes, outlining a beautiful landscape of mountains and waters, leading Camilla and Ling to step into it.

Then the scroll disappeared quietly, and no one knew where it ended up.

The tenderness in the ink and the charm after the thin lips bloom, silently moisten each other's lonely hearts.

……

The next day, Camilla, who had not slept all night, sat in the office, listening absentmindedly to Amiya talking about the Ark.

After people worked overtime, the Ark is almost ready and is replenishing the last batch of supplies. Kal'tsit is leading the team to check repeatedly. If there are no accidents, it is expected to set sail at noon today.

However, there are limited manpower in the isolated city, and many people are responsible for multiple tasks at the same time. They have to build the ark and set sail. They must leave time to rest to ensure that they are in the best condition to face the harsh conditions outside, so the official departure time is tomorrow morning.

Camilla appeared normal on the surface, as if listening to Amiya's words, but her mind was still filled with the beautiful body of Xihe Ling, which she could not stop savoring.

Xi's world in the painting is so convenient...

Amiya has the ability to sense other people's emotions, and Camilla did not hide all his emotional fluctuations, so she quickly felt that something was wrong with him.

Just when she was about to put on a stern face and say something to him, she felt some ambiguous and unspeakable things, which made her face turn slightly red, and even her words became a little halting.

Doctor, did you find someone to do that kind of thing with you last night?

What a playboy!

She complained a little in her heart, but didn't really say anything about it. As the leader of Rhodes Island, her rationality always told her what to do and when.

The most important thing now is to explore outward.

Although Camilla was distracted, he had no problem multitasking to deal with her.

After savoring the memory for a while, he looked at Amiya with a strange look in his eyes.

Time has definitely left its mark on Amiya, making her mature, but Camilla has already experienced this, and her thoughts at this moment are not on this aspect.

He was gazing at the black crown on her soul, the survival of civilization!

The continuation of civilization has the function of recording history and also gives Amiya the ability to feel the emotions of others. It has great potential, not for individuals, but for ethnic groups and civilizations.

What Camilla cared about more was that he seemed to have implanted a little bit of the material that would allow civilization to survive in reality.

He was able to obtain some of Amiya's abilities, but he did not obtain the ability to survive as a civilization. This was still quite interesting.

After observing for a while, he quickly lost interest.

He is now on the path of individual evolution and ultimate sublimation, and the continuation of civilization has no meaning to him.

However, this name alone, this name left by the previous civilization, was enough to make him think a lot and feel melancholy.

In the understanding of those who have passed away, civilization is thought, knowledge, language and culture, which can flow among different bloodlines and different wisdoms.

However, after the carrier that owned it disappeared, it was just a pile of outdated information, like chicken ribs.

Chimera doesn't want to regain its past glory, it's fine for it to just lie there quietly.

After Amiya finished discussing some matters with him, she left in a hurry. She was really busy recently.

Camilla calmly walked to the office window, raised her head slightly, and stared at the huge spot of light cast by the rising sun on the curtain that isolated the Originium.

"Tomorrow?... I'm getting a little anxious waiting..."

……

Chapter 440: A Corner of Blade Master Tower's Memory

"PRTS, do you know the exact origin of Originium?"

Camilla suddenly asked.

In the past two days, he did not ask any more questions about the things implanted in his body, and it seemed that PRTS, who seemed to be having a seizure, no longer used various tricks to avoid him.

Although Camilla is concerned about her own situation, she doesn't necessarily seek to get to the bottom of every problem.

He had long realized that the knowledge he acquired might not become his foundation but might also be a burden. PRTS chose to remain silent probably because some of the information it recorded had a huge negative impact on him.

He didn't sense any fatal danger, but everything he learned might cause him to change his current actions.

Of course, these speculations are based on the premise that PRTS is for his own good.

As both are relics of a previous civilization, he has great trust in PRTS, but they may not be on the same path.

Faced with the crisis of overthrowing civilization, God knows how much struggle the previous civilization had and how many crazy attempts desperate people made.

Camilla must have done something herself, but she just has no relevant memory.

"..."

The response to this question was still silence.

It seems PRTS really knows something.

Just as Camilla suppressed the urge to use the Seed of Evil to explore, a memory that had been dormant in the depths of her heart like ice suddenly surfaced.

He remembered that before the Haisi and Originium disasters broke out, humans had launched an exploration into the depths of the starry sky. Columbia's Rhine Life Company used part of the legacy of the previous civilization to break through the star pod layer covering the Terran sky, the sky that blocked all starlight, and successfully stepped into the unknown realm beyond the sky.

At that time, he was in the stasis room under the energy well of Rhine Life, where he met his compatriots who had provided some support to the general manager of Rhine Life, Christen, and who were the preservers who had carried out another survival plan and had failed.

They had a brief exchange before the Preserver was driven mad by thirteen thousand years of loneliness.

He remembered that he had asked the Preserver about the source of the Originium.

Another question to be asked is - who is Prissus?

The Preserver's answer was intriguing. Originium was just one of the countless answers, while Precious was the starting point of the madness, and he had once been very close to her.

To put it simply, Originium was also a survival plan of the previous civilization, and since Priss chose to implement it, he was very likely involved!

However, he has no idea what the plan is, nor is he sure whether it is still going on.

Maybe they are still there, Rhodes Island, PRTS, Kal'tsit... and himself, these traces of former civilizations are definitely not put together for no reason.

So...what can Originium bring?

Camilla thought about the current situation of Terra where all life was almost extinct, and felt a little speechless.

After the baptism of disasters, various projects of the previous civilization were mostly unattended and out of control. It was normal for their haphazard package plan to go wrong.

What Camilla needs to consider now is to what extent the Originium can achieve, and what advantages it has compared to his Eternal Elements and Seeds of Misfortune. If there are none, he will not spend too much energy on the Originium.

In deep thought, Camilla occasionally asked PRTS a question or two. Sometimes there was a response, but more often there was only silence.

He wasn't looking for answers, he was just killing time while he waited.

The spark of human civilization maintained by this isolated city is so weak that it cannot withstand the storm. He has to leave here before he can make some big moves.

If something goes wrong in the future, humans won’t be doomed along with it.

Time passed silently, and Camilla went out midway to receive the tissues of all the newborn humans collected by the operators in the past twenty years, and engraved them into his eternal elements.

After that, the personnel who went out with the Ark were reviewed.

This time, he was the supreme commander and determined the Ark's route. Kal'tsit followed as an assistant, while Amiya stayed in the city to manage affairs.

In addition to a group of Rhodes Island operators and logistics personnel responsible for maintaining the operation of the Ark, the entourage also includes a complete army composed of elite troops sent by other large and small forces, which are also under his command.

Knowing the terrifying strength of Camilla, no one would think of competing with him for power. The combined army could be crushed with just one finger.

The main purpose of this review is to thoroughly determine the power structure on the Ark and let the people below understand it to facilitate command.

Despite preparations in advance, the Ark's departure was somewhat hasty. The most important protective suits equipped with anti-origin stone equipment were not prepared in sufficient quantities.

During the review, Chimilla finally saw the new operators he had been paying attention to before, including White Lion, Phantom Tide, Nightmare and others.

He didn't look for her deliberately, but when they met at this time, he felt a subtle sense of familiarity.

White Lion is a tall and handsome Sakotan with wings of light and a halo on his head; Phantom is a Letanian warlock, noble and elegant, with a charming melancholy temperament; Dire is a Filin operator with cat ears, gentle and intellectual, with a plump figure, who performs missions as an auxiliary operator.

They should have come from the future to this time point just like him, but he should be the only one who knows this. Bai Shi and the others all regard themselves as people of this era and completely integrate into it.

Camilla didn't give them any special instructions and treated them as ordinary operators for the time being.

After a brief two-minute speech to boost morale, the review was completed without too much formality, and everyone left one by one according to their own formation.

After a night's rest, the Ark will officially set sail.

Camilla returned to his dormitory and tried to take a nap, but he seemed to have lost the ability to sleep and could not fall asleep normally.

He never gets tired and his spirits are always in top condition, so sleeping and resting are meaningless.

Of course, you can force yourself to fall asleep, but that would be boring.

When he was lying on the bed with nothing to do, someone quietly pushed open his door, slipped in, closed it carefully, and then greeted him as if nothing had happened.

"Good afternoon, Doctor."

The person who came was Texas. She suddenly acted suspiciously and Camilla didn't know what she meant.

"Good afternoon, what can I do for you?"

Camilla asked calmly.

Speaking of which, Texas will also board the Ark and go out together. She has her own strength.

"Nothing, I just suddenly got some free time and had nothing to do, so I came to see you, Doctor."

Texas said as he walked to Camilla's bed and sat down, naturally reaching out to hold him in his warm arms and gently stroking his soft hair.

Camilla squinted her eyes, rubbed against her arms, adjusted to a more comfortable position, and then asked softly.

"Are you feeling uneasy?"

Texas was silent for a few seconds, then nodded slightly.

……

Chapter 441: Blade Master Tower, you continue~

Confusion, panic, and anxiety are all normal reactions when faced with an unknown future.

Without having to perceive it carefully, Camilla knew that this kind of uneasiness was spreading in the isolated city at this moment.

But, the other side of anxiety is expectation and hope.

Who can be willing to be trapped in this city for twenty years?

Camilla listened carefully to the heartbeat behind the soft peaks of Texas, closed her eyes and murmured.

"Don't be nervous, don't be afraid, just treat it as an outing. I'll take care of the rest. The little glimpse I've seen of the future is that we'll have a fairytale happy ending..."

may be……

When will this world completely revolve around him?

"Doctor, it's because you always hold on to these kinds of thoughts that we're all worried. You'd stop at nothing to achieve a goal, but now you only have your own strength to rely on. What price can you pay? It feels good to be protected, but we're all worried that you'll overdo it, that you'll end up hurting yourself..."

Texas spoke softly.
