Chapter 469 has finally been found!
Melina's eyes sharpened, and she called Yi Jian over: "We are about to search the entire Local Group. You will be in charge of the preparations for the Arbiter."

Yi Jian glanced at the humanoid creature on the screen out of the corner of his eye, but didn't recognize it, so he immediately looked away and said, "Okay."

Yi Jian strode out of the command room, and Qiangzi followed him, asking in a muffled voice, "What does Lady Melina want with you?"

"Let me take over the preparations for the Arbiter."

Qiangzi exclaimed in surprise, scratching his head in confusion: "Aren't we supposed to be looking for the Lord? Why would Lady Melina hand over these tasks?"

The sole objective of the Arbiter is to find the Lord.

Lady Melina originally planned to find a planet as a base, successfully pass the Star Alliance councilor's test, and use the power of the Star Alliance to find the Lord.

They had already found a planet, but their journey changed when they encountered the Evergreen on their way.

Just when it was about to catch up with the Evergreen, the Arbiter suddenly braked and crashed into this remote corner of the universe.

These inexplicable changes left Qiangzi completely baffled.

Yi Jian clenched his fists, his steps hurried, and he muttered as he walked, "I suspect that Lady Melina has obtained a clue about the Lord!"

"What?! Your Majesty?!" Qiangzi jumped up excitedly, but Yi Jian pressed him down.

"Keep your voice down, it's not certain yet."

Qiangzi drooped down instantly, like a withered flower, and said disappointedly, "I'm not sure."

Yi Jian was 80% sure about this guess: "Let's go find Uncle Thunderbolt and Uncle Black."

Lady Melina wouldn't tell me such important news, but if Uncle Thunderbolt and Uncle Black ask her, she'll definitely tell me.

Qiangzi lifted Yi Jian up and placed her on his right shoulder, then took a step four or five meters away: "I'll take you there. I know where they are."

Ten minutes later, after listening to Yi Jian's description, Thunderbolt scratched his head and said uncertainly, "You're asking me who that person is? Why does he sound a bit like Jormungandr?"

He turned his head and looked at Old Black Brother.

Old Blackie nodded: "It should be him. Yi Jian, where did you see him?"

Since escaping the black hole, the Arbiter and Jormungandr have barely seen each other.

Although both sides have connections with the Covenant, Jormungandr seems to be avoiding the Arbiter; wherever the Arbiter appears, Jormungandr will never show up.

Why would Jormungandr suddenly contact Melina?
Thunderbolt Brother and Blackie Brother exchanged a glance, both of them having their own guesses.

Without saying a word, they went straight to the command center.

Yi Jian patted Qiangzi, signaling him to follow.

"Melina, is there any news about the Lord?" Thunderbolt shouted from outside the door.

The automatic sensor doors slowly opened to both sides, and before anyone could be seen, Jormungandr's soft voice could be heard.

"Melina, I have good news for you! I've found Mom... cough, I've found Lin Xiaohe!"

Clang.

Qiangzi couldn't stop in time and fell face-first into the mud.

Ignoring his pain, he exclaimed in unison with everyone else, "Really?!"

Thunderbolt Bro's mouth was crooked from grinning, he couldn't speak, and he made a series of gurgling sounds in his throat while gesturing wildly.

The old black man punched him in the back several times, laughing wildly as he did so: "I knew it! The Lord must still be alive!"

Melina's facial muscles trembled, but her eyes shone with an uncontainable, burning light of ecstatic joy. She tried to suppress the upward curve of her lips, but she couldn't.

Finally, she sighed softly.

Fine, in the face of the Lord's clues, anything can be compromised!

She stopped considering negotiation techniques and went straight for the bottom line: "What do you want in exchange?"

Feel free to ask; whether it's the essence of life or the technology stored on the Arbiter, it can all be used for exchange.

Jormungandr's eyes flickered, revealing a hint of guilt: "I don't need to exchange anything, as long as Lin Xiaohe can forgive me for my little mistake."

Ok?
Since it concerned the Lord, Melina did not agree immediately: "I cannot agree on behalf of the Lord. I can only say that I can plead for you."

“Great!” Jormungandr readily agreed. “Lin Xiaohe is on the third rocky planet in the solar system of the Milky Way. This planet has just completed the Star Alliance’s civilization trial, although, of course, a little accident happened along the way.”

A flash of inspiration struck Melina.

She once received a request from Civilization Observer ID 11839 to use the [Eye in Deep Space].

It can't be such a coincidence, right?

"Could it be Earth?"

Jormungandr looked up, surprised, and said, "You know about this planet?! Then do you know that Blue Star is actually the Nine Provinces Star? And that the carbon-based humans on it have the genes of the Seventh Era civilization in their bodies?"

Wha, what?
Thunderbolt nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "That's right, that's right! Back then, the inhabitants of Kyushu Star set up a gene bank, and we all donated our genes there! Melina, everything matches up, the Lord must be on Blue Star!"

"Melina, we must go and greet the Lord!"

Qiangzi raised his hand high: "I'll go! I can be the vanguard."

Yi Jian's eyes shone like stars: "I can do that too! We can send a new ship to scout ahead!"

Bryce coughed twice to quell the noise: "We still don't know what the situation is on Earth. So, such a difficult task is naturally entrusted to us Stardust humans."

Qiangzi suddenly became bolder: "Our Rock Group is more suitable. Blue Star is a rocky planet."

Qiangzi glanced at Yi Jian beside him and instantly understood his good brother's implication: "Yi Jian has experience as the second commander of the [Arbiter], so we can join forces."

Yi Jian grinned, revealing 16 neat, white teeth.

That's right, that's exactly how it is.

The thought of meeting the legendary master makes me put aside all thoughts of respecting my teacher and the Way.

I'm so looking forward to meeting the Venerable One! What is the Venerable One like? How should I introduce myself when I meet her?
Yi Jian's heart was pounding; she was so nervous.

There were only six people in the command room, but they were divided into five groups. Even the most composed Melina joined this "power grab".

Everyone wanted to be the first person to see Lin Xiaohe.

On the other end of the communication line, Jormungandr trembled and weakly said, "I suggest that you go with the entire [Arbiter]. Because Blue Star wiped out the Heartgate Exploration Team 11839, the Covenant, upon learning of this, dispatched Grey, a low-ranking Covenant commander, and Brutus, one of the twelve councilors of the Orc Empire, to quell the rebellion. But just recently, they all went missing. The Covenant is aware of this and is holding a council meeting to discuss countermeasures."

"There's a high probability they'll send the Covenant Council forces to Earth."

Melina asked sharply, "How do you know so much detail?"

Jormungandr's heart tightened, and his voice grew even weaker: "Because I was the one who notified them."
