Chapter 687

The rising water vapor condensed into beads on the marble dome and slowly slid down the relief.

Xia Die knelt in front of the boundary anchor, her fingertips suspended above the diamond-shaped crystal, and Aglaya's words were still echoing in her ears, "The blockade outside the sky has been broken, and the anchor point may be able to connect to the Starry Sky Train." Her hair was covered with water droplets, and the ends of her hair fell to the edge of the anchor point.

Xiadie's eyes fell on the crane-shaped pattern in the center of the anchor point. It was the mark she had carved before leaving. "I want to see what they call the 'temperature of the universe'."

Then, the moment Xiadie's fingertips touched the crystal, the anchor point burst into light like the sun, and the crane-shaped pattern spread its wings like a living thing, lifting Xiadie's figure off the ground.

At the same time, on the Star Train, Pam said to everyone in the observation car, "An unknown transmission signal was detected, from the boundary anchor of Omphalos--"

Lin Yu, who was talking quietly with Liuying, stood up instantly when he heard the news. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He took a few steps to Pam's side and said, "Agree to connect."

"Okay, then we'll listen to passenger Lin Yu." Pam responded crisply, and then her short hands quickly operated the console.

Just as he finished speaking, a loud explosion in the air suddenly sounded, as if a powerful force was instantly released inside the train.

I saw a misty blue light suddenly lit up in the middle of the carriage, and the light kept flickering and jumping.

As everyone watched, Xiadie's figure suddenly appeared in the misty blue light. Her figure was somewhat illusory, as if she had just traveled from another time and space. As the light gradually dissipated, her outline gradually became clear.

At this moment, Xia Die's hair was messy and stuck to her cheeks. Her wet clothes were tightly wrapped around her body. Crystal clear water droplets kept dripping from the corners of her clothes, gathering into a small puddle on the ground.

As soon as her feet touched the ground, she staggered and her body leaned forward uncontrollably. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and reached out to hold on to the sofa in time, barely able to stabilize her body.

She breathed heavily, raised her head, and slowly scanned the strange and technological scenes in front of her. Her eyes were full of curiosity, and her fingertips unconsciously stroked her clothes, as if this could help her regain a sense of familiarity.

"Xia Die!" Lin Yu was the first to react. He rushed forward, pulled the blanket on the seat, and carefully wrapped Xia Die's trembling shoulders. His eyes were full of concern, and he asked softly, "Are you cold?"

"Not cold." Xia Die raised her head and her eyes fell directly on Lin Yu. Their eyes met in the air.

At this moment, she suddenly smiled again, with drops of water rolling down her eyelashes. "It seems that my heart trusts you before my reason."

"Come, try the coffee I made." Just then, Ji Zi walked over with a cup of steaming coffee in her hand, and the aroma of coffee filled the air.

When everyone heard Ji Zi's words, their eyes all turned to her.

Lin Yu frowned slightly, a hint of hesitation appeared on his face, and asked tentatively, "Sister Ji Zi...are you sure?" The tragic scene of Ji Zi making coffee before emerged in his mind, and he felt a little worried.

"Don't worry, I have improved it." Ji Zi smiled confidently, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

Xia Die took the coffee, took a sip, and a look of surprise appeared on her face. "It tastes good. You are really good at cooking."

Ji Zi smiled even more deeply. Seeing that Lin Yu was still skeptical, she jokingly said, "Why, you still don't trust me?"

Lin Yu smiled awkwardly, "How could that be possible? It's just that the impression is too deep."

Everyone laughed.

Sanyueqi came close to Xiadie and looked at her curiously, "Why did you suddenly come from Omphalos? Can you tell me about it?"

Xia Die gently put down the coffee cup, straightened her messy hair, and began to speak slowly, "Ohma is now at a critical period. Aglaya is fully committed to promoting the deep integration of the upper and lower worlds. She has established a new trade market. For a time, craftsmen from the lower world poured in with their unique handicrafts and enthusiastically exchanged knowledge with the people and scholars from the upper world. The whole of Ohma is bustling with activity."

"However, the elders still have resistance in their hearts. Although they don't openly oppose it on the surface, they secretly make trouble from time to time, trying to hinder the process of integration. My coming here this time is also an accident."

"At that time, I was thinking about finding a way to contact you. When I saw the domain anchor, I wanted to try it. When my hand touched the domain anchor, I saw a flash of light in front of my eyes. When I opened my eyes again, I was here."

"I see." Lin Yu nodded slightly.

At this time, Ji Zi noticed the empty cup in Xia Die's hand, with a little aroma of coffee still lingering on the wall of the cup, so she stepped forward and asked, "Do you need more coffee, Miss Xia Die?"

"No, no, the coffee is delicious, but it's better not to bother." Xia Die hurriedly held back Ji Zi's hand that was about to take the cup, and a sincere smile appeared on her face.

"Xia Die...your hand?" Xing suddenly pointed at Xia Die holding Ji Zi's hand and said in surprise.

Her eyes were wide open, confusion written all over her face.

"Well, I have merged the power of death, and my own curse will not endanger life." Xia Die gently put down her hand, her tone calm but unable to hide a hint of joy, "Just like now, I can feel the warmth of a hug without restraint." As she spoke, as if to prove her words, she opened her arms and hugged Lin Yu beside her without hesitation.

Lin Yu had never expected Xia Die to do such a thing. He froze instantly, his body instinctively tensed, and he waved his hands in the air frantically for a few times. In the end, he had nowhere to put his hands and looked very embarrassed.

He looked at San Yueqi and the others with an innocent look on his face.

Xia Die seemed to realize that her behavior was a bit abrupt, and her cheeks instantly flushed, as beautiful as a ripe apple.

She blushed, gently squeezed Lin Yu's hand, hurriedly left Lin Yu's arms, and then said to everyone a little embarrassedly, "Do you want a hug too?" After that, she lowered her head slightly, her fingers twisted together uneasily, "It's better to say that I want..." Her voice became smaller and smaller, and the following words were almost inaudible, but everyone understood that she was eager to establish a closer connection with everyone.

When San Yue Qi heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he jumped in front of Xia Die like a little deer, opening his arms, "Okay, okay, I've wanted to hug you for a long time!"

Liuying also walked forward, smiled and gently hugged Xiadie, whispering in her ear, "Welcome, this will be your home from now on."

Dan Heng nodded slightly, walked forward, and gave Xia Die a gentle hug. Although his expression was still calm, there was a hint of tenderness in his eyes. "If you need anything in the future, just ask."

Xueying ran over with her short legs and said in a baby voice, "Sister, I want a hug too!" Xia Die quickly squatted down and hugged Xueying in her arms, feeling the warmth and innocence of the little girl, and a happy smile appeared on her face.

Xueying put her tender little hands around Xiadie's neck and kissed her on the face again and again, "Sister, I love you!"

Although this scene looks a bit funny, with everyone on the train lining up to hug each other like a special welcome ceremony, it is really heartwarming for Xia Die.

She had never felt such pure kindness and acceptance. Every hug was like the warm sunshine in winter, dispelling the haze that had long been in her heart.

These hugs made her feel that she was no longer alone, but a member of this big family full of love and warmth.

In this warm atmosphere, Pam's voice suddenly rang out, "The next stop navigation system has been activated! According to the star map annotations of the Black Tower, there are three candidate star regions ahead!" It called up the holographic projection, and three planets rotated in the halo, "Hill of Eternal Daylight, Quantum Abyss, and...Mist Hidden Star."
