Chapter 57 Welcome Party
The sparsely populated Origin City has become a city that never sleeps tonight, especially in the square in the city center. The dense lights are as bright as the sun, making the square bright as daytime. The water columns sprayed from the central fountain emitted seven colors under the gorgeous lights, and the gentle and soothing music sounds, with a strong brown star style, circling over the square.
The square has been arranged into a venue for a large banquet. Nearly a hundred long tables are placed along the edge of the square, surrounding the center of the square, like a dance floor that is isolated by man. In the middle of the dance floor, the fountain has been raised several meters around it to form a temporary stage. Various neon lights are shining around the stage. Under the neon lights, the brown star flags flutter in the wind.
Hundreds of mechanical puppets were busy in the venue. In half an hour, the large army was about to enter the atmosphere. As pioneers, the twenty-eight captains, of course, had to surprise their compatriots, let them enjoy the warmest welcome and feel the warmth of home. Therefore, after the communication was over, everyone began to get busy.
What is the most important first step to achieve this goal? Of course, it is a grand welcome party with hometown characteristics. Think about it and know what a surprise it would be when they first stepped on the ground after thousands of years of escaping from their hometown. What a hometown-style ceremony would be. Nothing is more important than this.
The question is, what is the style of hometown? What is the welcome party? The captains asked each other in a daze, but no one knew how to hold a welcome party, let alone a hometown style.
My whole life was devoted to the race, and I devoted all my energy to responsibilities. Every knowledge I mastered was to be able to survive a long voyage, or to take root on a new planet smoothly. It was full of purpose and nothing was redundant.
So it was not until this time that everyone was confused that they didn't understand life at all, not just themselves, but they were afraid that all captains were the same, and had long forgotten what life was, so they were at a loss for even a banquet.
Yes, over the years, everyone has been together so few times. Even if they gather together, it is just a major meeting. As soon as the meeting ends, everyone will immediately return to their spaceship and dare not stay for an extra minute, for fear that something will happen to their spaceship will make it difficult for these people who never know what the welcome will hold a banquet for.
Fortunately, the system stores some video data from the Brown Star Civilization era. After consuming more energy than studying a technology, the captains finally found some records of the welcome party and what the Brown Star Civilization style is. Of course, what they don’t know is that these are very poor activity records, but for the same poor participants, it is enough.
After the welcome meeting, the compatriots will board the shuttle under the leadership of the pioneers and conduct a two-hour planet tour. The shuttle will circle the equator of the New Brown Star for a week and show them the new home. Although New Brown Star does not have strange scenery like the planets that passed by before, this place is home after all, and it is unique.
After the tour ends and everyone returns to Origin City again, there will be no separation between pioneers and latecomers on both sides, and will become a whole again. At that time, all the captains will dress up and go to the Dark Moon Cathedral in the city center to hold a prayer ceremony, thanking the goddess for her protection.
From now on, today will be the beginning of the year, which is the "New Year" that appeared in the Brown Star Age. This day will become the most important festival for the Brown Star people, which is a racial festival and a religious festival. On this night, all believers will concentrate in nearby chapels and pray devoutly to the Dark Moon Goddess until the moon disappears and the sun rises again.
"Note, pay attention, the spacecraft is close to the atmosphere and the guidance signal has been issued. It is expected that in twenty minutes, their shuttle will arrive at the suburban apron." The sound in the city broadcast was a little excited, "Now we can start preparing."
"Then start." Someone shouted, and then the whole city lit up.
The lights on every street are lit up, colorful flags fill the buildings next to the street, and the collected flowers embellish the slightly monotonous city, and the scent of the fragrance is sent to every corner of the city by the night breeze.
The road from the tarmac to the center venue was covered with red carpets. No one prepared such a large number of red carpets in advance. Most of them were made in the few hours after receiving the news. The Brown Stars do not like to waste, but today is an exception. Today's Brown Stars are qualified and have reason to indulge once and devote themselves to enjoy the taste of happiness completely.
Boxes of newly brewed sparkling wine are piled on both sides of the red carpet, hidden at the same time, as well as colorful silk and shredded paper flowers for celebration. The screens on the street are ready and can start playing images at any time. Launchers are set up on the tops of each building. With just one command, the gorgeous fireworks will completely illuminate the way for the return of the compatriots.
The aroma of food began to waft out in the square. The mechanical chefs who had been preparing for a long time began to take out the rich food that had been prepared from the insulation warehouse. The pioneers had enjoyed green food for several months. Of course, they should allow the compatriots who had been waiting for the long-awaited to enjoy the same delicacies as soon as possible. Fresh meat, fresh vegetables, fruits with green leaves, and lively seafood, and they should provide them with all their hearts.
Suppressing the almost gushing appetite, the pioneers were reluctant to board the maglev and concentrated on the apron in the suburbs, looking down at the timer. There were still ten minutes left, and it seemed that it was time.
"Very good, the test is complete." The interim commander of the base took on the command for the last time, "Now, turn off the lights."
Under the command, the lights as bright as daylights were turned off at the same time, and the city returned to its usual appearance. Only street lights on the streets were still emitting dim light. Since it was a surprise, of course they could not be mentally prepared in advance. The pioneers looked at each other and nodded with a smirk.
Not long after, a large area of bright sign lights appeared in the night sky, with no stars, and the lights were so obvious. Soon, nearly a hundred shuttles roared and landed at designated locations, and almost filled the spacious apron. However, although they had already landed, the captains looked confused. They had not figured out why the compatriots who should have been waiting and handed over here did not appear, but only some metal humanoids for guidance to guide everyone off the plane and meet.
However, they soon no longer needed to think about it, because just after all the captains were gathered together, the apron suddenly had bright lights and colorful fireworks shot into the sky. Twenty-eight pioneers rushed out of the hidden place, and the sparkling wine in their hands sprayed at the captains.
Chapter completed!
