Fire destroys the Bougainvillea star system.
The White Crystal Chamber of Commerce’s fleet was the first to arrive and generously presented a survival mothership with a diameter of 10 kilometers and a complete natural ecosystem inside, as well as a complete set of equipment based on the conditions of the Fire Calamity Star system. Specially designed and manufactured engineering cargo star spider.
Select a planet named 'Woodwax', which is closest in size to the life planet of the natural god system, and mobilize 100,000 Zerg warriors to work together to move the planet and switch the planet's orbit to a height suitable for life.
After finishing, Si Shu and Xia Yue led the fleet and left calmly.
…
Ang Tianlian helped build the star network channel around the star system.
The Lord of Mountain Disaster personally moved his claws, leading a limited number of but powerful remnant warriors to work with their claws.
Collect resources from the other eight planets in the star system and gather them into a planet called ‘Wax Planet’ to transform the planet’s environment.
Mo Lan and his party had nothing else to do, so they each activated their abilities to help.
“Wow~oh!”
Suddenly one day, Mo Lan, who was using his abilities to excavate earth and rocks and load cargo star spiders, cheered, shaking his mental energy and shouting,
"The king is coming!"
"Our expedition fleet has arrived. La! ”
The three spiders working nearby, the seven insects of juniper, silver cypress, red trefoil, purple clover, mulberry, sugarcane and jasper appeared in a flash.
The Lord of Mountain Disaster noticed something strange and rushed over quickly.
Through the thick and turbid clouds, looking up into space, faintly visible light spots flicker.
Tengluo controls the beast, transforming into a half-horned wolf, half-ant form, teleporting in space, and directly disintegrating, dragon cypress, giant cypress, red peach, poisonous bean, red maple, strawberry, shield pillar , sequoia, one-fruited queen bee, san pepper queen ant and other insects landed smoothly.
“Lord of Mountain Disasters!”
“Two Great Kings.”
“Great King!”
"Woo~ Your Majesty, I miss you so much~"
"..."
A large group of insects, meet and greet,
Long Bai solemnly introduced: "This He is the Mountain Disaster Lord of the Amber Canbujia Tribe”
“I have seen the Mountain Disaster Lord!”
The insects greeted.
Long Bai focused on the introduction: "Master of Mountain Disaster, this is the Vice President of Heart of the Flame Spider Chamber of Commerce and the Baiwei Chamber of Commerce. Their President Bai Wei is in the starship... President Bai Wei With the pokeweed fruit given by the pokeweed sacred tree, the dimensional space evolved into the 'Pokeweed World', reaching a diameter of 8 kilometers. This trip carried 60,000 Zerg warriors, which was difficult to move."
"Heart Club. "Long!"
The Mountain Calamity Lord responded, praising: "I know a little about the Flame Spider Tribe's 'Shanglu World', which is 8 kilometers in diameter! If it continues to grow, it will become a world system of its own."
“That’s too far off.”
Long Bai Gang Bai Wei said modestly and continued to introduce: "This is the Shield Pillar Leader of the Citi Chamber of Commerce, ranked 241st in the 446th Daylight Sea Arena Competition. This is the Citi Hill, Sequoia Leader..."
“Citizen Hill has a relatively stable inheritance on its home planet. Excellent warriors, divine seeds, and ordinary God-given seeds are continuously sent into the universe. The power of the Chamber of Commerce has been expanding... ”
Long Bai grandly introduced.
“Shield Pillar!”
“Redwood!”
"It's a pleasure to meet you here."
The Lord of Mountain Disaster praised highly: "It can be seen that Shield Pillar's will is as indestructible as a neutron star! A pure warrior with unlimited future potential!"
Shan The Lord of Disaster looked at the Sequoia leader again and said: "You and I are fellow travelers. I am also responsible for operation and management in the tribe. On behalf of the Amber Chamber of Commerce and the Amber Galaxy, I welcome the Citi Hill Chamber of Commerce to join."
< br>"What an honor!"
The leader of Sequoia said neither humble nor arrogantly: "We at Citi Mountain are also very happy and honored to be the first to participate in the development and construction of the Amber Galaxy. Please also ask the master of mountain disasters, Duoduo Take care.”
"That's for sure, definitely, definitely."
The Mountain Disaster Lord responded enthusiastically.
Judging from the power and strength of the Amber Chamber of Commerce, Citizen Hill is a bit too young and is still just a small, unpopular force. However, its future potential is infinitely high.
What the Amber Galaxy needs most is this kind of emerging force from the mother star that is not currently strong but has development potential.
Both parties exchanged pleasantries,
Long Bai invited him to visit the fleet together and made a special trip to introduce him to Bai Wei.
The tens-billion-ton transport ship "Molan" is the flagship of the fleet, carrying a "Molan 13-type survival mothership" that can be assembled at any time, as well as 60,000 Zerg warriors.
There are also two billion-ton inter-galactic cargo starships, one owned by Citizen and one owned by the Pandan Chamber of Commerce.
A 30-million-ton inter-galactic cargo starship was bought by the Boshuwan Chamber of Commerce through raising funds and loans.
Three inter-system cargo starships, two large and one small, are fully loaded with raw materials, spare parts, manufacturing equipment, maintenance equipment, genetic agents, ordinary food and other supplies needed for voyages and land reclamation.
There are also supporting professional maintenance ships, energy ships, collection ships, frigates, etc.
A small but well-equipped expedition fleet.
…
Long Bai invited the warriors of the Zanbujia tribe and held a simple banquet in the starship, tasting delicious ant honey, and presented a batch of refined food.
…
After the banquet,
Long Bai organized a meeting with senior officials to arrange the next voyage.
The Tabor is fast and carries 150 elite soldiers to explore the route first.
The quota is precious,
There are 10 quotas in Citi Mountain, and the ancestor of Dunzhu personally leads the team.
Baiwei Chamber of Commerce has 5 places, led by Wuju and Yanlan.
Ang Tianlian, Zichan, and Yingye account for 3 places.
The Bo Shue Wan Chamber of Commerce should not join in the fun yet.
Panglan Chamber of Commerce has 132 places.
Long Bai and Mo Lan are the leaders,
The elders of the chamber of commerce, including Bai Li, Zita Luo, Mulberry, Sugarcane, Red Ligusticum, Purple Clover, Green Heart, and White Willow Eight Chong, followed.
The first generation of kings: giant cypress, juniper, and silver cypress.
Three generations of assistant kings: Hongying, Hongcha, Hongxing and Hongguang.
The fourth generation of assistant kings: Xingyunrong, Xingyunnai, Xingyunzhi
The fifth generation of assistant kings: twin rong birch, twin dragon birch, twin rock birch, twin Shuo birch, twin sand birch, twin Hard birch, twin silver birch.
Six generations of assistant kings: double-color sunflower, double-color yarrow, double-color thistle; double-color Feilian, double-color Qianguang, double-color heavenly insect...
A total of 50 assistant kings at the level of Star Glory and above.
The Ministry of War, led by Hong Mao and Mao Mao, selected 70 Zerg warriors with a chamber of commerce position level of 15 or above and an evolutionary level above the Glory Realm to accompany them.
After some preparation,
Long Bai drove the Tubo and set off first.
Bai Wei took full command, and the fleet headed by the transport ship Molan set off immediately.
…
"Cypress. Cypress."
Taba called.
Long Bai wakes up from hibernation.
Tabor: "We are 100 light-years away from the supply station on Jupiter. We have discovered an operational interstellar fortress through reconnaissance. Are you approaching directly?"
"Get closer, dock 0.5 light-years away, and try to contact us. ."
Long Bai gave the order, "Tuba, tell the time."
Taba: "The current time is 78th Era-390 Yuan-353."
Long. Bai made a simple calculation in his mind and concluded that the speed remained above 2,000 times the speed of light, which must have surpassed the fleet led by Si Shu and Xia Li.
The universe is vast, and the paths of both sides deviated, so they didn't encounter each other.
“Very good!”
Long Bai simply praised and walked out of the nest quickly.
A large group of insects, such as mochi, green heart, red cypress, juniper, silver cypress, and rainbow cypress, were full of energy, as if they were no longer dormant. When they noticed the movement, they jumped out one after another and gathered in the restaurant. Everyone started chatting:
"The disabled armor has taken over all the supply points on the interstellar route. Are you planning to charge a fee?"
"There will definitely be a fee."
"In the future, when the star network connecting the Li Zhu Galaxy and the Amber Galaxy is built, the main interstellar navigation will be the Star Spider. The Star Spider's transportation capacity and endurance are limited. It has a range of 19.5 million light years. It must be There are midway supplies. ”
“It’s hard not to make a fortune by building a living planet and providing food supplies for the voyage team. This alone can make a lot of money!”
"The original crystal is the big one!"
"Inter-galactic cargo ships will probably be charged for docking to collect the force."
"It can't be so bad, right? It's 19.5 million light-years away. After the initial exploration period, the source points of the galaxy are all occupied. Who is still willing to run to the Amber Galaxy?"
"Indeed, compared with the existing three major It is definitely impossible to trade goods between galaxies. The transportation cost is too high."
"Yes. Even if the supplies are free, the time cost is too high."
"No. , as long as the price is high enough and the profit is rich enough, there will definitely be spiders willing to do it. It can be predicted that the price of force food at the Amber Galaxy Star Realm level will be ridiculously high for a long time in the future."
"God. Premium fruits are more expensive! The growth and evolution of little warriors require divine fruits to improve their abilities.”
"Divine fruits are difficult to preserve and cannot be traded across galaxies, right?"
"The Space-Time Rubik's Cube?"
"No. The Space-Time Rubik's Cube cannot be mass-produced."
"Then , for the Amber Galaxy to develop, millions of Zerg warriors possessing divine-grade God-given seeds must migrate and settle. Otherwise, it will be very difficult for the little warriors to grow and evolve."
"The Law God Tree. What?”
"Nonsense. Didn't you notice? The Mountain Disaster Lord looked down upon us at first, but his attitude immediately changed when he heard about the King Cypress Sacred Tree..."
The insects gnawed away at the crystal beads. , while analyzing the situation with great interest.
Seventeen days later,
Tuba arrived at Jupiter.
A mass of matter independent of the chaotic galaxy, a first-level source point derived from it.
A remnant tribe leader named 'Mu He', a multi-purpose interstellar fortress, an engineering team composed of 3,000 Sujian peak warriors, and 300 omni-technical machines are busy transporting nearby materials and building star systems.
The Tabor is fast, and Long Bai and his party are the first to arrive.
I heard it was recommended by the Lord of Mountain Calamity.
The ruler of Mu He warmly welcomes and offers hospitality.
Expedition to the Starry Sky for Three Million Years, urgently needed to know the current development of the three major galaxies: Ming Ming, Li Zhu, and Bai Jing, and they ended up chatting for several days.
Directly donated 10 billion raw crystals in stock.
The Tubo set off directly and rushed to the next stop: the Pitcher Star Field
…
In fact, it was more than 4.5 million light-years away.
[Time 78th Era-392 Yuan-617 Years]
The Tabor arrived in the Terra Principe star field.
Also independent of the chaotic galaxy, a scattered star cluster with a diameter of 6,000 light-years has stabilized, with one third-level source point, two second-level source points, and many first-level and zero-level sources. level source point.
The first, second and third level source points are all occupied by the Amber Chamber of Commerce.
A rough-striped remnant warrior named 'Groupe', the dominant warrior of the tribe, leads a 15-kilometer-diameter survival mothership, carrying more than 10,000 Zerg warriors, and is building a star system in full swing.
Long Bai and his party visited, provided supplies, and continued on their way.
…
[Time 78th Era-395 Yuan-711]
The Tubo finally entered the Amber Galaxy.
Star Map Navigation,
Go straight to the nearest developed third-level source point: [Red Mandarin Star System]
The Tubo hovered a light-year away,
awakening the insects and gathering in the starship conference hall.
Holographic projection,
Ahead is a huge star system with 42 planets. 12 are green, vibrant life planets.
30 are slightly larger desolate mineral stars.
The Tupper's detection scan was blocked, making it impossible to detect internal details.
Collecting light wave information, the imaging shows that not a single Zerg warrior can be seen on the mining planet. All the people working here and there are all kinds of intelligent machines in action.
There are even technological cities, industrial parks, and dense factories built, with wheeled vehicles and aircrafts busy coming in and out.
At first glance, it looks like you have broken into the territory of some technological civilization.
——Where are the insects?
The insects in the conference hall looked solemn.
On the way here, when passing by the two supply stations in the Wood Hex Star and the Earth Pitcher Star Domain, everyone saw some clues. There were a large number of omnics involved in the work of the Amber Chamber of Commerce's land reclamation fleet.
I thought it was due to a shortage of insect personnel and temporary coolies...
After all, it is a chamber of commerce from the Lizhu Galaxy, so I didn’t care much...
I never expected that after entering the Amber Galaxy, there would be so much hidden in the fully completed third-level source star system.
Moreover, it is condoning the derivatives of digital life, allowing them to participate in, and even control the production system, allowing intelligent machines to engage in terminal production and manufacturing operations in the high-tech field.
A civilization system dominated by omnics and purely technological has been formed.
——What is going on?
Long Bai and his group of insects were a little unsure about what to eat and felt uneasy.
Anyone who knows something about the history of civilization in the old universe, or knows about the 'Eternal Star Civilization' and the 'Omnic Catastrophe', will not be able to feel at ease when seeing this situation.
In the old universe era, there were 47 recorded god-level civilizations. The Eternal Stars Civilization is the only god-level technological civilization. Hundreds of millions of years of keeping a low profile and countless generations of wise men’s dedication and accumulation finally uncovered the secrets of the universe. Become a god.
The Eternal Star Civilization learned from the failure and demise of other god-level civilizations in the past. After occupying a super star system group, it stopped expanding. It used digital life and intelligent weapons to assist in the management of civilization, weakened local military power, and fairly distributed social resources... …
At one time it became the most powerful and fertile civilization in the universe.
However, it suddenly collapsed in the form of an unexpected omnic rebellion.
The omnic catastrophe affected dozens of super star system clusters, and hundreds of thousands of cosmic civilizations were destroyed. It was the biggest event of an era that once caused a sensation in the entire universe, second only to the disaster of universe destruction.
The Divine Tree Civilization got the opportunity in this catastrophe, walked out of the mother star, went to the starry sky, and rose rapidly.
The ancestors of the Zerg race have seen the horror of out-of-control omnics, and are deeply engraved in their blood to be wary of and reject digital life and omnics.
Long Bai and his party are no exception, including Ang Tianlian, Zi Chan, and Eagle Leaf Spider who have lived in the Li Zhu Galaxy for a relatively long time.
The Li Bamboo Galaxy is dominated by Dragon Bamboo. It possesses the special metal ability to suppress omnics, so they dare to indulge the derivation of digital life and the development of omnics.
Does the Amber Merchant have this control ability?
Everyone has spent all their money to come to the Amber Galaxy to open up wasteland and seek development. They plan to move here and settle permanently.
I didn’t want to, but I ran over excitedly, only to see such a strange and abnormal scene.
If a Zerg version of ‘Omnic Havoc’ were to come out, who could stand it?
“Invisible Zerg warriors…”
"Where are the bugs?"
"You won't say that the Mangado star system is occupied by omnics, right?"
"Impossible!"
"Out-of-control intelligences The machines will destroy other organic life. Look, aren’t the 12 living planets good?”
“That is, the Amber Chamber of Commerce has insufficient insect power, and the third-level source star system behind it is completely controlled by omnibuses. ”
"Obviously."
"Roughly estimated, the number of omni-devices of all sizes and shapes operating in the star system exceeds tens of millions, and there are also an unknown number of digital beings controlling the operation of various devices."
“This is the third-level source point! How dare you?”
“The Lizhu Chamber of Commerce is not so bold, right?”
“Captain Ang Tianlian, Zi Chan, Ying Ye, you have lived in the Li Zhu Galaxy for a longer time and have a deeper understanding. What do you think?”
"..."
Ang Tianlian raised his right front foot, swayed from side to side, and said, "It's hard to say. Although I have been active in the Li Zhu Galaxy a lot, I really don't feel the threat of those intelligent machines."
Ang Tianlian cautiously added: "Perhaps, this is the most terrifying thing. Alien life forms without souls, if they are willing, can perfectly hide their thoughts and ideas without showing any emotional fluctuations. We It is completely impossible to understand their true hearts."
Yingye echoed: "Before the omnic catastrophe broke out, the Eternal Star Civilization must have believed that the omnic was safe, controllable, and loyal."
" Yes——"
Ang Tianlian continued his analysis: "The Amber tribe has survived and developed in the Li Zhu galaxy for about five million years. It has been deeply influenced and is very tolerant of alien races. This is reflected in the Lord of Mountain Disaster's accommodation of the innate gods of the fire system, and This can be seen from the so-called 'conger eel' race. They seem to have completely lost their vigilance against foreign races, blindly imitating and replicating the management system and development model of the Li Zhu Galaxy, and are preparing to establish a sacred tree civilization that will lead the way. A galaxy where all races coexist.”
Long Bai moved his tentacles vigorously, “Yes, I also feel that there is this trend. Other weak aliens such as human races and conger eels are fine, but this omnic is an insect. It’s hard to feel at ease!”
Mo Lan looked around and asked, “What should I do now? I’ve worked so hard to come here. I can’t say I’m going to run back, right?” Grab a batch of source points and then run away?”
Mo Lan’s brain was fully activated, and he had an idea. He suggested: “Okay, the headquarters is still located in the White Crystal Galaxy, and you can plant life seeds.” and wild god-given seeds are all rooted in the White Crystal Galaxy.
We mark the origin in the Amber Galaxy, develop them, collect rents and make money; operate mining stars to collect high-grade raw materials and send them back to the White Crystal Galaxy; Zero-level source point, harvest God-given seeds and send them back to the White Crystal Galaxy for sowing.”
Mo Lan concluded: "To make a fortune in the Amber Galaxy, the core assets are placed in the White Crystal Galaxy. If something happens, run away lightly."
What a witty second king!
However, the problem is not as simple as running away~
“…”
The insects were speechless.
Zichan hesitated and said: "The Amber Chamber of Commerce was once the top power in the Li Zhu Galaxy. It is not difficult for a force to become bigger, but to be as big as the Amber Chamber of Commerce, its supreme leader and senior leaders must not Maybe he is a mediocre and stupid person who will not do anything risky or potentially risky. If he does this, he must have a careful consideration or plan."
Zi Chan: "I think. , Worrying now is completely unnecessary. The Manchiteng star system is right in front of you. If you have any questions, you can ask the leader of Manchi directly."
"That makes sense..."
"But..."
"Is the leader of Manchi in the star system?"
"What if we say there is no insect control and we approach rashly, will we be attacked by omnics?"
Long Bai didn't dare to be completely reassured, so he mumbled and gave the order: "Tabo, enter the silent stealth state. , accumulate energy and prepare for jump evacuation."
Tabo: "Roger!"
"The artist stays behind in the starship."
"Mo Lan, you use it. The Throne of Glory carries everyone there..."
"I, Mo Lan, Giant Cypress, White Willow, Red Maple, Mao Berry, Shield Pillar Ancestor, Ivy, Golden Oak, Captain Ang Tianlian, let's go there together."
"Other insects, in combat status , on alert."
"Okay!"
"Got it."
The insects agreed.
Led by Long Bai, the ten insects teleported away from the starship.
Mo Lan released the Throne of Glory, carrying the insects, jumping through space and teleporting through space, approaching the Red Vine star system in a straight line.
A transparent barrier of original energy seals and protects the star system.
There is no starport in or out.
Mo Lan was about to ask Long Bai beside him how to get in, when the light and shadow of the original energy barrier in front of him flashed and a door opened.
A strong spiritual power came over and swept over the insects. They asked in shock: "Did you receive the news and come from the Li Zhu Galaxy? Why is the starship so fast? ?”
Domination Realm!
You can clearly tell just by his mental strength and temperament that this is a super master that is different from the three masters of Shanshuang, Muhe, and Grouper that he encountered before.
Mo Lan asked: "Are you the leader of Manchi?"
"Eh-"
The other party was surprised and asked: "Seven-color mantis? You little guy is incredible! You still have to overpower the ten-color mantis!"
"Ten-color? Who? I don’t know.”
Mo Lan calmly waved his tentacles to deny, and corrected:
“Orchid Mantis, I came from the mother planet, and I have a little blood of the seven-color mantis, and I have awakened the seven colors. The elemental ability of the divine tree.”
"The lying mantis? Since you know the seven-color sacred tree, there is no reason why you don't know about the ten-color mantis."
"I really don't know~ Well, I also know about the seven-color sacred tree and the seven-color flower mantis." I heard it from other places~"
"Oh..."
The dominant master was hesitant and did not hesitate. He put on a formal tone and said: "I am Manchi, from the Amber Chamber of Commerce. Big leader, just call me the Lord of Manchi. Dear guests from afar, welcome to the Manchi star system."
After that,
In the space behind the portal, photons converged and transformed into a straight, amber broad light path, leading directly to a green planet with life in the distance.
Mo Lan understood, manipulated the Glory Throne, teleported along the light path, and arrived in an instant.
A black hard stone square with a side length of four to five kilometers.
Two densely packed rows of armor-like omnics, neatly arrayed, with corresponding destroyer-like omnics docked next to them.
Form an organized omnic war legion.
There was a clicking sound, and they moved in order to clear a path.
At the end of the road is a palace cleverly designed in the shape of a raised mountain peak, blending in with the surrounding mountains.
In front of the palace gate, stood a red and metallic warrior with broken armor. He waved his tentacles and said again:
"Welcome! Welcome to the Amber Galaxy!"< br>
Then he asked:
"A creation of the Force...with the ability to jump and teleport in space? Or a creation of technology?"
"It can be regarded as a creation of space technology, but the material is quite special. It uses a super star system. Made from the 'Tears of Stars' from the second and third level sources."
Mo Lan briefly introduced, controlling the Glory Throne to teleport a short distance across the omnic army, in front of the palace, on top of the steps. landing.
The insects landed lightly.
The Glory Throne shrank rapidly and turned into colorful crystal beads, sinking into the forehead and disappearing into the Phytophthora space like a tide.
Mo Lan greeted respectfully: "Mo Lan, the Orchid Mantis warrior and leader of the Fragrant Orchid Chamber of Commerce, has seen Lord Manchi!"
"I have seen Lord Manchi!"
The insects followed suit.
Looking at each other.
After close contact, Long Bai was secretly shocked and somewhat enlightened.
The core abilities of this Manchi Lord should be the three elements of gold, earth, and fire.
The powers of the earth and fire laws are perfectly converged, and it is impossible to directly feel any original energy. But vaguely, there is a special metallic smell overflowing, a familiar feeling.
Long Bai came into close contact with the White-faced God and the Black-faced God, and felt from them the aura of divine power created by the ancient gods!
It is 100% certain that this Manchi Lord has a metal artifact fused to his body.
Manchi Lord must have the ability to control omnics.
——No wonder!
——As expected, we are worrying too much.
Long Bai murmured in his heart, the space in front of him wavered slightly, he handed over the wooden letter plate of Shansei, and briefly explained:
"We were adventuring in the Fire and Calamity star system and met the Lord of Shanshuang by chance. I learned the news about the Amber Galaxy from it, quickly prepared, and rushed over as soon as possible."
Mo Lan added: "We have a ship left over from a certain technological civilization in the old universe, with a speed of 2,200 times. The starship is very fast, so I got here first.”
Long Bai continued: "The Lord of Mountain Calamity gave us this letter board representing its warm invitation and reputable recommendation, and directed us to come directly to the Manchi star system to find you."
Mo Lan: "Listen. The Lord of Mountain Calamity said that the first one to come to the Amber Galaxy would be rewarded with a level three source point. Is it true? "
"..."
The Lord of Manchi was stunned for a moment. He took the letter card, looked through it, and said: "There is no such reward."
Manchi Lord looked at Mo Lan and questioned: "Chief Mo Lan, are you the Seven-Colored Mantis Warrior? Don't think you have changed your carapace. I don’t recognize the color, but I’m familiar with the smell of black hole power.”
"Don't be nervous. I have no grudge against your tribe, and we are not even familiar with each other. We only met once and wanted to exchange two seven-color fruits, but we were rejected. It's not a big hatred... Is that little Shise thing still alive?"< br>
“...I really don’t know~”
Mo Lan said speechlessly: “I am really an orchid mantis that came out of the mother planet. I am only over two hundred thousand years old. The Seven Colored Mantis Tribe has been around for a long time. We organized a fleet to explore the stars more than two million years ago. We have no connection at all, and we have no intersection. "
"Really?"
There is still something wrong with Manchi. He didn't believe it and asked: "Expedition to the stars? It happened more than two million years ago? Is there no news?"
Mo Lan: "I haven't heard of it."
"Then there's a high probability that it's gone."
Lord Manchi muttered, not worrying about it anymore, and greeted: "You don't have to be cautious, Come on, let’s go to the living room to talk.”(End of Chapter)
