City No. 1, Dawn Star.

The familiar distribution of roads and the familiar street trees made Hope feel in a daze.

If it weren't for the exoskeleton armor he was wearing and the slight swelling feeling from his abdomen, he would even think he was still living in Rose 154.

He followed his memory and found his own house.

Standing at the door, he took a deep breath and reached out to hold the door handle.

A holographic image unfolds quickly.

“Bio certification is in progress…”

"Palmprint, confirmed."

"Iris, confirmed."

"Face recognition, confirmed."

"Welcome home, Mr. Hope."

The familiar gentle electronic synthesizing female voice made Hope feel his heart tremble slightly.

That was his smart home steward.

Like 1, they are both weak artificial intelligence and are under the jurisdiction of zero.

"Is this Zero built?" he asked with a trembling voice.

As soon as he finished speaking, he came to his senses.

What are you talking about?

Besides zero, who else can build this city?

He quickly changed his words and said, "I mean... the layout of Dawn Star 1 city seems to be similar to that of Ross 154 city?"

"Yes, Mr. Hope." The home smart butler responded quickly.

"For convenience and to give people a better sense of belonging, the drawings of Ross 154 were directly used when building this city."

"Only the Academy of Sciences and some important places have been redesigned."

Hope suddenly realized.

Understood.

The main thing is to save trouble.

Yes, when you just arrived at your new home, facing heavy construction tasks, zero computing power will inevitably be very tight.

"Hey! Hope!"

Just as Hope was standing at the gate and thinking about it, a familiar voice interrupted his thoughts.

He turned around suddenly and looked in the direction where the sound came.

I saw a blond man standing not far away, waving to him with a smile.

"Hansent?!"

"You boy is here too!"

When Hope saw his old friend, he was surprised and happy, and quickly waved his hand and shouted loudly.

Apparently, the man named Hansent was not very satisfied with Hope's reaction.

He immediately lowered his face and pretended to be angry and said, "I said Hope, are you treating an old comrade-in-arms who has not met for hundreds of years?"

"What did I mean I came?"

"In terms of contribution value, I am no lower than you. Why can't I wake up in the first batch?"

Listening to this familiar tone, Hope's face suddenly showed a smile.

He apologized repeatedly: "Sorry, sorry, it's just an accident."

Then, he waved to Hansent: "Come to my house and have a chat. Strictly, we haven't seen each other for a hundred years."

...

“Is there a lot of people in City No. 1 now?”

Hope reached out to take the teacup handed by the robot and asked softly: "It seems that you should have been there for a few days, right?"

Hearing this, Hansent raised his head and nodded with a proud look: "Of course, I have passed a series of tests of exoskeleton armor."

"About a week ago, I entered City No. 1."

Hope smiled and nodded in response to Hansent.

As an old comrade-in-arms who have been with him for decades, Hope naturally knows Hansen's character very well.

Although his personality is a bit ostentatious, he is still reliable when encountering major events.

"As for people..." After showing off, Hansent got back to the point and shrugged helplessly, "In fact, there are not many people."

"When you came just now, you should have realized that there were almost no few people on the street."

"After all, only a small group of people have been awakened now."

"Besides... there are still many awakening personnel who have not passed the test of exoskeleton armor."

Hope nodded, not much surprise at this answer.

"Ask, the second and third cities are under construction." He patted Hansent on the shoulder and comforted softly, "When the second and third groups of people wake up, the city will become lively."

Hansent shrugged indifferently, as if he didn't care much about the urban population.

The next moment, he put his head to Hope, his face full of instigation, and whispered: "Let's not talk about the urban population problem for now."

"How is it? Are you interested in going out for a walk?"

"You should have seen it when you came?"

"There are many active volcanoes on this planet."

"With not many people now, let's take the initiative first and strive to cover all the nearby areas!"

Hearing this, Hope only felt his heart beating.

As if he saw the moving look on Hope's face, Hansent leaned closer again: "The opportunity should not be missed, and you will never come again."

"Don't forget, this is a brand new planet!"

"Do you want to waste your precious time on empty streets?!"

"Bang!"

Hope reached out and patted the coffee table in front of him: "Stop talking!"

"I'll go!"

"Time?"

"Tomorrow." Hansent's mouth rose rapidly, and he knew that, like him, Hope was not an idle person.

While saying that, he turned on his watch and pressed it on the small holographic projection a few times: "I have already declared to the Urban Management Center."

"It's 10:21 am now, and I guess there will be results this afternoon."

"I have already thought about it. Let's go to the crater for the first stop."

Thinking of the huge crater I saw on Xuannv II, Hope gradually became excited.

He hurriedly opened his watch and submitted an application for leaving the city to the Urban Management Center with great skill.

The reason is naturally to go out to explore minerals.

As grassroots employees of grassroots institutions under the Academy of Sciences, urban management centers generally do not reject their applications.

"By the way." Hansent suddenly thought of something and asked casually.

"Your mineral exploration ship should be still there?"

"I heard that when the human fleet was heading to the Glitzer 555 star system, they encountered a star pirate civilization. A big battle occurred at that time, and many starships suffered unrestrained disasters."

The smile on Hope's face became stiff in an instant.

seemingly……

possible……

Is his starship one of them?

"Hey hey hey! Brother, isn't it?!"

Seeing Hope's expression, Hansent was a little panicked.

"Calm down, isn't you still there?" Hope's mouth twitched, and he waved his hand indifferently, "I'll just ride your mineral exploration ship tomorrow."

“…Is there a possibility that something went wrong with my exploration ship?”

Hansent said in a faint tone: "Otherwise, why do you think I've been here for a whole week?"

Hope: "…"

"Mr. Hope." The voice of the smart housekeeper of the family broke the slightly stiff atmosphere between the two.

"The Renlian Starship Manufacturing Factory sent a message."
