Chapter 527 Hissel's Welcome
Chapter 527 Hissel's Welcome
"Ding-dong-"
A crisp notification sound rang out, followed by a "whoosh" as the shuttle's door slowly opened.
"Welcome back, King."
The moment the door opened, the entire space echoed with the sound of welcoming Meros, a loud and solemn voice welcoming their king's return.
Upon hearing the sound, Lin Xiyue's gaze was drawn to the doorway. She looked closely and saw a tall, graceful woman from another ethnic group standing there.
This woman from another ethnic group was dressed in an exquisite business suit, paired with a black silk pencil skirt that perfectly showcased her graceful figure.
However, when Lin Xiyue's gaze fell on the head of this foreign woman, she couldn't help but feel a sense of astonishment.
Generally speaking, the human head should be round and smooth, but this alien woman's head is not like that at all.
Her head resembled a plant, with a thick, coconut-shell-like substance on the outermost layer that naturally split in two, covering her head like human hair.
But beneath this "hair" is her real face.
Her face was very delicate, with a high nose bridge and big eyes; it was the face of a classic beauty.
However, if this face weren't woven from tiny, dark green vines, Lin Xiyue would probably praise her beauty as flawless without hesitation.
"Welcome, Your Majesty. This must be Miss Lin Xiyue."
The woman from another tribe spoke in a respectful and gentle tone, bowing deeply before rising gracefully.
Lin Xiyue stood outside this technologically advanced room, where everything around her seemed so unfamiliar and solemn.
She couldn't help but feel a little nervous, after all, this was her first time in an unfamiliar place, and she was being addressed as "Miss Lin" in such a formal way.
When Lin Xiyue heard the woman from another ethnic group address her as "Miss Lin," she was clearly taken aback, and a hint of embarrassment appeared on her face.
"Oh? Oh, right. You've heard of me?"
After a while, she came to her senses and stammered, "..."
After she finished speaking, she unconsciously scratched her head, seemingly trying to ease the awkward atmosphere.
The alien woman's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile, but Lin Xiyue found the smile somewhat strange.
"Of course, we all know you. We are very grateful that you chose to be with Wang."
The woman from another race spoke in a tone that Lin Xiyue had never heard before.
Lin Xiyue felt increasingly puzzled upon hearing this.
The tone was as if to say, "Thank you for taking him in; you've worked hard."
She frowned, looking at the foreign woman with some confusion, unable to understand what it meant.
“(⊙o⊙)…, no, no need to thank me. I really like Amo, and it's an honor to be with him.”
However, despite feeling a little awkward, Lin Xiyue still responded politely.
The woman from another ethnic group nodded, seemingly satisfied with Lin Xiyue's answer.
"Shall I take you, Wang, to rest first?"
Then, she glanced at Molos, who was lying motionless in Lin Xiyue's arms, pretending to be asleep, and asked.
Lin Xiyue nodded subconsciously, then followed the woman from the other ethnic group.
Right now, she was thinking about the conversation she had just had, and something felt off.
"Oh, right, I'm so sorry! I was so careless and forgot to introduce myself."
Just as the two were standing together, preparing to leave, she suddenly stopped and said apologetically.
"Hello, I am the person in charge here. My name is Heathsal, you can just call me Heath."
Then, she straightened her clothes a little and smiled at Lin Xiyue.
After speaking, the woman from another ethnic group—no, it should be called Hissel—gave Lin Xiyue a very solemn bow once again, expressing her respect and regard for Lin Xiyue.
Seeing this, Lin Xiyue quickly returned the greeting.
“Okay, Heath. You can just call me Xiyue. To be honest, I always feel a little awkward when you call me Miss Lin.”
Then he answered with a smile.
Heathcliff nodded after hearing this.
Her gaze fell on Lin Xiyue, as if she were thinking about something.
"Yes, Miss Xiyue."
After a while, Heathsal spoke.
Lin Xiyue felt a little helpless upon hearing this address.
She had originally hoped that Hissel could just call her Xiyue, which would seem more intimate.
"Okay. Now, could you continue to explain the situation here to me?"
But since Heathcliff insisted on calling her that, she couldn't force him, so she smiled and said...
Seeing this, Heathsal smiled slightly, nodded, and continued to lead Lin Xiyue forward, explaining the surrounding environment and related information in detail as they walked.
"Of course, this is the king's private territory, and the place we are about to go is the king's residence here. You and the king will rest there for a while."
Heathsal explained with a smile.
"Because this planet has become completely uninhabitable due to overexploitation, all our buildings have to be constructed underground. The view you see through the window is actually a virtual simulation."
As she spoke, she walked to a floor panel with a special pattern in the reception hall and stomped on it forcefully.
Instantly, a square light appeared beneath Hissel and Lin Xiyue's feet. This square, like a small elevator, steadily lifted them up, suspending them about twenty centimeters above the ground.
"This is our mode of transportation. You can tell it where you want to go by voice. If you don't have a specific destination, you can also input energy directly, and then you can control it to move forward as you wish."
Heathsal patiently introduced everything to Lin Xiyue one by one.
Then, she channeled some energy into the block beneath her feet, and as if receiving a command, the block began to move slowly forward.
At the same time, the cube beneath Lin Xiyue's feet followed closely behind, carrying them quickly through the reception hall and into the building.
"You must be very tired after such a long journey. Don't worry, I will get you to your destination as soon as possible. Your favorite food has been prepared. Once we arrive, you can enjoy the meal and then have a good rest."
Heathsal said with a smile, his tone kind and gentle.
After saying that, she began to briefly introduce some of the places they passed along the way, as well as their uses and functions.
She also provided detailed instructions on how to get to other locations, demonstrating her complete knowledge of the area.
