Where the Wind Rises (3)

"terribly sorry."

The entry inspector who received them smiled, but his attitude was very firm: "Yuanxing will not receive robots."

Bertram looked back at Dariel and Northwes.

He never treated them as robots... They are indeed not robots, but this is difficult to explain and cannot be explained by people outside the Unicorn.

Putting human consciousness into machines is an unviolable taboo in this star field.

After some negotiations, the immigration inspector gave Unicorn special treatment with permission from his superiors.

“The robots on your boat can be moved near Star Harbor, but they need to be accompanied by someone,” he said. “Our library and museum are worth a visit.”

Many entertainment and leisure facilities have been built near Xinggang, among which the libraries and museums are known as the largest in the entire star field, and are indeed worth seeing.

"This is also for your safety." Because the guests still looked unsatisfied, the immigration inspector added, "It's okay near Xinggang. It's completely under our control, but there are many people in the tourist spots who are residents of Yuanxing. They reject any technological civilization and especially hate robots. Even if you are willing to receive tourists for life, if you bring robots, you may be driven out directly by them. Isn't the vacation just to relax? Why both robots make everyone unhappy?"

Even without any instructions, he did not want to offend the guests in front of him, nor did he even want to disappoint them. The Unicorn is a very eye-catching existence in this star field. Their wonderful spacecraft and powerful power, as well as their true words of "willing to engage in friendly and equal communication with any race" have almost become a legend.

As a government employee, the immigration inspector maintains the vigilance he deserves to be against outsiders, but he is indeed curious about them... and has a good impression of them.

They did not ask for any privileges and came here like the most ordinary tourists. Even if they were dissatisfied, their attitude was always gentle and polite, and they did not make things difficult for a young employee like him.

In the end, Unicorn accepted such an arrangement. Novi actually didn't care. He was more interested in the library. However, everyone thought that Tes would stay with him, but Tes chose her sweetheart without hesitation.

Nana also chose "Go out and play!" with confidence instead of her little friend Dada.

The little robot looked very pitiful.

“…Follow me.”

Maya knocked its bare metal head, "I'm too lazy to run around."

Some people who were too lazy to move chose to stay near Xinggang and spend these days more leisurely. In addition to the crew members who needed to stay on the Unicorn, the others were divided into five teams according to their preferences and headed to five different tourist spots.

Bertram originally planned to accompany Moira, but Moira expressed a polite rejection to his dark circles.

"I think you may need to sleep well for a few days," she said.

Bertram accepted such kindness, but he also arranged the most thoughtful guard for Moira.

Although this place should not be in danger.

The large area of ​​land on the Source Star has actually been flooded by sea water. Most of the remaining land is deserted, and a small part of it is still covered with green land. In some seasons, the climate is slightly extreme, with heavy winds and little rain. Once it rains, it will rain. It is said that there are many mutated dangerous animals in the deep mountains and dense forests. However, the Britans rely on powerful force to clear a large area of ​​safe areas around several important ancient ruins. After the empire split, the Manning Empire, which included the Source Star in its sphere of influence, retained its functions, but did not intend to spend too much energy on it.

The original three star ports only retained the largest one, and the ruins and safe areas that can be visited have also been reduced, but in a sense, it is still one of the safest planets.

Unless deliberately provoked, no force will cause any unrest on the Source Star. It is a great empire after all... and it is also the origin of the most powerful intelligent race in the Star Domain.

.

A passenger spacecraft as light as a bird, flew towards Mount Singa.

The ship was taken down by the Unicorn, and the seats that can carry thirty people were still one-third empty. The upper half of the spacecraft was completely transparent, and the inner position was slightly higher than the outer side, ensuring that everyone could enjoy the scenery along the way in their own position.

The two rows of the bow had the best sight, sitting Ice and Willy, while Moira and Alsie were sitting. The little boy almost stuck to the glass and looked curiously at the undulating sea under the spaceship - this sea was not blue, but a tender pink and purple color. From a high place, it looked more like a wonderful sea of ​​flowers.

The little guests who came from afar deeply felt the novelty of "another planet".

This color is not the true color of sea water, but because of some kind of flooded plant in the sea. Because of this, there are no dangerous sea beasts in this area, allowing the spacecraft to fly closer to the sea according to the guests' requirements.

Nana leaned in the boy's arms and stretched her neck. According to her habit, she should be lying on Willy's head at this moment, but Ice would not lie on her - he was worried that she would crush the boy's neck.

...Is is really getting more and more annoying, she is not that heavy!

But seeing as Willy secretly gave her his snacks, she generously stopped caring about it.

When they were about to arrive at their destination, the spaceship rose up again, allowing them to see the towering mountains surrounded by clouds in front of them. Occasionally, the wind blew by, lifting up layers of veils. Under the clouds, under the green mountains, there seemed to be a string of white bead chains hanging down, which was lined with a faint rainbow light, as if it was a dream.

That is Singa Mountain.

"It's a bit like Hongwan Island." Tess said.

Indeed, if two suns, one big and one small, were not hanging on the mountainside, this place looked a bit like Hongwan Island from a distance.

Mount Singa is the closest tourist spot to Xinggang. It is famous for its layered waterfalls hanging from the top of the mountain and a magnificent ancient building at the foot of the mountain.

The building is said to be an ancient temple that has been more than 3,000 years old. It is actually built on the high ground on the mountainside. However, because the sea water rises, the original mountainside becomes the foot of the mountain. During the storm season, the huge waves raised on the sea surface can almost lick the ancient stone walls. In order to protect these buildings, the Britan Empire built a circle of transparent barriers around the highlands, and it will emit fluorescent light at night, surrounding the moss-covered stone temple like half-blooming petals, which is also another kind of beauty.

This is the best season for Yuanxing weather, and there are many tourists in Mount Singa. Bertram has already booked several relatively independent "mutton houses" close to the forest, allowing his guests and crew to enjoy the holiday more easily and happily.

The vines of the "Vine House" are actually the aerial roots of a plant called "Wutu", and "Wutu" is an animal similar to a jellyfish on the Source Star. As the name suggests, this plant does not grow tall but has an extremely large root system. The house itself is a huge metal box with high and low heights. The Wutu is planted on the top of the box. The drooping air roots will soon wrap the whole house and drill deeply into the ground or into the soil on the next layer of the box roof. With the canopy of the Wutu, which blooms red flowers as the center, the roof is designed into small gardens, which looks a bit wild. The square metal house vaguely exposed in the roots is shining with a silvery luster and a sense of technology. The combination of the two is unique.

The place where they live is very well located, and they can hear the faint sound of water coming from somewhere, and can also look down at the entire ruins, and even the sea surface below the ruins. Because the terrain is high and not too wet, it can be refreshing even if you just lazily and sag here for a few days.

But Bertram actually booked this excellent location without much effort. The facilities in this place were built at the heyday of the Brittan Empire, and there were much more people who would come here to travel at that time than now.

They set out late and settled everything. It was already dark. The source star had two suns but no moon, so it looked particularly dark at night. Most of the shops in the bustling streets and alleys beside the ruins were opened by locals, but locals would not live here.

They will return to their homes "stay away from technological civilization" after the night comes, so that the entire tourist spot will be quiet at night, and tourists have nothing to do except sleep or have some fun on their own.

It is said that once upon a time, after dark, there would be entertainment projects such as holographic projections in the square beside the ruins, but after the Manning Empire took over, it did not take great care to maintain it.

Their tour guide, Enpei, a middle-aged Britann with blue skin and gray hair, diligently arranged a sumptuous dinner for them that would not make the guests uncomfortable, and taught them some ancient games, telling them ancient legends, and trying to prevent his guests from being bored and disappointed.

Taiss suspected that Bertlem had been deceived by false propaganda. This place may have been a "famous tourist destination", but now it is obviously a "declined tourist destination". It looks fine during the day, but after dark, she ran out and walked around. It was not just dark, but it was a bit gloomy. Even the famous "half-blooming petals" barrier did not shine at all. What was really shining was the pink and purple sea they had seen before, but the dark fluorescence looked a little weird from a distance.
