Chapter 430 Who is the guest?

The night sky is half filled with stars, interspersed with rotating spaceports, and the other half is the Guixu Army, which is similar to the daytime sky.

A-Lian has seen this kind of starry sky since she was a child, but the old people in Guixu Army always say that the night sky used to be especially beautiful.

The bright moon shines on my bed, the Milky Way flows westward, and the night is not yet over.

A gentle breeze stirs the waves, scattering them like stars across the river.

A-Lian had never seen such a starry sky, so naturally she couldn't imagine it based on these poems.

"What are you doing?" Rossi stepped onto the wooden fence.

His golden hair, illuminated by the star Guixu, seemed to radiate a faint silver light.

A-Lian is an honest child who never lies: "I'm reflecting on myself."

"Oh." Rossi didn't ask any further questions, but stayed by Alian's side, silently looking at the stars in the sky, or more accurately, at the eternally unchanging Guixu Star.

"Ah Lian, I need to register. I'm leaving my sister in your care," Rossi said casually.

A-Lian glanced at him, then looked down at the desert.

A small brown beetle pushed open the sand shell and stretched out its antennae.

Awakened by hunger, it carefully glided its six legs across the cool sand, leaving trails as fine as hair. It crawled across a small sand ridge, its tentacles trembling rapidly, searching for information carried by the wind.

"Rosie, have you consulted Mrs. Lu?"

Rossi tilted her head back and continued to look at the Guixu Star covered in white mist: "No, Teacher Lu will tell me to keep waiting. But I don't have time, and I can't afford to wait. Every night when I close my eyes, I see my mother's departing figure in my mind... At that time, my sister and I were very scared. I called my father, but I couldn't get through."

“Until it was broadcast live globally… Besides them, there was my father. I will never forget the scene of my father shooting himself.”

“I don’t have a father anymore, so I can’t lose my mother too. My father said that I am the man of the family, and I must protect my mother and sister.”

A-Lian couldn't empathize with him and could only weakly say, "This selection might be a one-way trip."

"Ah."

The small beetle was swallowed whole by a viper that suddenly appeared.

The desert surface has returned to calm.

Rossi stood up and patted Alian on the shoulder.

A-Lian kept staring at his back, and at that moment, she was incredibly envious of Rossi's courage.

Rossi always knows what she wants and works towards that goal without ever losing her way.

The next day, after learning that her brother had left, Luna sat alone for a while and decided to participate in the selection as well.

Ah Lian stopped her and said dryly, "Rosie told me to take good care of you."

Luna has exquisite features and is very beautiful.

Under Rosie's protection, Luna was never harmed.

She has always been beautiful and clean, like a diamond washed clean by rain, clear and dazzling.

But at this moment, Luna was on the verge of breaking; her eyes were heartbreaking.

“Thank you, A-Lian, but I really can’t go on. I miss the old Blue Star, I love the Eastern Kingdom. Even when the Civilization Trial Grounds arrived, everyone was so optimistic and positive. Mom would take us shopping, passersby would praise us for being pretty and well-behaved, and the uncle selling candied hawthorns would give us some for free.” “Back then, the sky was blue during the day and black at night. Mom’s embrace was warm, and we would watch the Civilization Trial Grounds every day to cheer on Principal Lin. A-Lian, you don’t understand…”

"Principal Lin led us through one crisis after another, creating one miracle after another. She is a goddess in our eyes. Our family's biggest wish is to be able to study at the Central First Agricultural School of Blue Star."

Luna couldn't help but sob. Her weak cries were like a small hammer, striking Alian's heart again and again.

"But our gods have abandoned us... Now, I've even lost my brother!"

Seeing Luna's determination to die, A-Lian's lips moved slightly, and she whispered, "Is it possible that your god has already fallen?"

"Impossible!" Luna raised her head, her eyes burning with fury. "Principal Lin is so strong and powerful, she could never have fallen! She just disliked us and didn't want us... Waaah!"

Looking at Luna, who was immersed in tears, A-Lian was at a loss and could only sigh deeply.

Have their trust and admiration for Principal Lin reached such a level that they would rather believe Principal Lin abandoned them than believe that Principal Lin is dead?

The teardrop pendant on A-Lian's belt was a little uncomfortable, as if reminding her that even though she grew up in the Guixu Army, she was so out of place with the old-school Guixu Army members.

"Alright, Luna, I'll go with you."

"Huh?" Luna waved her hand in a panic. "No! You are Teacher Lu's prized student, and you will have to shoulder a lot of responsibilities in the future."

A-Lian smiled: "Luna, I'm not just doing this for you, I'm doing it for myself too."

She doesn't believe in Principal Lin; she wants to see just how powerful the Star Alliance really is, whether it's a monolithic entity, and whether it's possible to leverage its strength against it.

She wanted to see what would await all of humanity on Earth if, as a last resort, all of them had to bow their heads.

Having made her decision, A-Lian knocked on Lu Shi-Meng's door in the middle of the night.

The door was pushed open, and Lu Shimeng, already dressed, was watering the peas.

Lu Shimeng poured most of her water into this pea sprout.

“Aunt Lu…” Even after making the decision, A-Lian’s mouth seemed to be sewn shut, and she couldn’t open it.

Lu Shimeng took a pea seed out of the flowerpot, turned around, and looked at the girl she regarded as her heir.

"Keep this seed safe."

A hint of nostalgia flickered in Lu Shimeng's eyes: "Principal Lin is actually a very talkative and interesting person. She once told me a story about a sect on a very, very far away planet that uses pea seeds as a blessing. They believe that as long as you pray sincerely, the peas will sprout and protect you when you encounter a crisis."

"and after?"

"The crisis truly arrived. The pea couldn't protect them in time, but it told its owner. The owner went to the rescue, and those who rescued them will henceforth join the pea's owner's faction."

"What political party?" Ah Lian wondered to herself. Could it be the Guixu Army?
“Xinghe Party.” Lu Shimeng placed the pea seed into Alian’s palm. “This story tells us not to place our hopes on illusory gods, but also not to lose hope. I specifically asked Principal Lin for this pea seed after hearing the story.”

Lu Shimeng winked mischievously: "You know, Principal Lin planted a lot of plants, but they stopped growing after she fell into a coma. These seeds are from peas that Principal Lin took such good care of."

She looked intently at A-Lian: "Child, I'm so glad you're willing to find another path. May the pea seeds accompany you and bless you."

Ah Lian clenched her fist; the pea seeds, covered in damp soil, felt strange to the touch.

With tears welling up in her eyes, she choked out, "Thank you, Aunt Lu."

"Alright, child, let Luna in. Speaking of which, Principal Lin and her mother Jenny met once before. Be patient for a few days; I've already asked Yuan Lang to help me find out who the Star Alliance members are this time."

"Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated."
