After confirming the number of people, the group prepared to cross the lake.
There were many batches of tourists around the Moon Base, so taking spaceships, while others took small boats.
Zhang Ling and the others were riding on a giant beast that stood over thirty ters tall, with seats on its back and sides, complete with canopies to shield from the rain, and even so simple fruits.
The giant beast walked on the bridge, with the tour guide standing on top of its head, using a loudspeaker to begin the introduction.
"Dear visitors, if you have children with you, please watch them closely. Our mode of transport is the Sha Tuo Beast, from a planet nad Four Seasons Star."
"Planet?"
"Yes, we have discovered another habitable planet, but it is not yet open to the public. Moon Base residents can use their resident cards to visit Four Seasons Star for leisure, but since there can be personal risks involved, please consult with relevant personnel for details.
"Alright, all of you are here to travel to the Moon, so let's leave the matter of Four Seasons Star at that.
"The bridge we are currently on is the Earth-Moon Bridge, one of eighty-one such bridges, symbolizing perfection. By crossing the Earth-Moon Bridge, you have co from Earth to the Moon.
"Once you enter the city, you can move around freely. I won't follow you, but I will tell you about all the things to take note of here.
"Wherever you go after entering the city, if there's sowhere you're not allowed, soone will stop you. For those who wish to partake in outdoor activities, please inquire with hotel personnel. every hotel has outdoor activities, and if you want to..."
While the guide was seriously introducing the place, the tourists suddenly started exclaiming.
A huge screen was projected above the entire city, showing two muscular n boxing in a ring.
One of the n flipped over the other in mid-air.
Oh! It wasn't admiration, but amazent; the move didn't seem thrilling because the gravity here was too low.
Because of that unnecessary fancy move, he got caught by the other man and pinned to the ground.
The massive holographic image also showed countless spectators, their cheers reverberating through the entire Moon Base.
The man pinned to the ground tried to rise again, but his palms and knees seed to have no strength.
"That's it." The guide said in a tone of soone accustod to watching matches, "If he can't even get up under the Moon's gravity, then he's really done for."
Just as everyone was watching intently, anticipating the outco—
"Beibei!"
A child was running along the ridges on the back of the giant beast, literally running along the ridges — it was not a figure of speech. The source of thɪs content is noᴠelfire
With a push of his foot, the guide expertly maneuvered the Moon's gravity, twisting in mid-air to grab the child and toss them back into the arms of their near-tearful young parents.
"I told you!" The guide, not forgetting to put the loudspeaker to his mouth, yelled at the family, "Keep an eye on your children!"
"I... I... I was careful not to let him fall off, but I didn't expect him to, uh, do Qinggong."
What was originally a frightening incident had everyone laughing uproariously instead.
By the ti Zhang Ling snapped out of it, she found herself smiling as well.
Several giant beasts raised their heads from the lake bottom, spraying water into the sky, creating a dreamy rainbow over the Earth-Moon Bridge.
As everyone's gaze moved away from the rainbow, the holographic image changed again, replaying the passionate first Lunar cha Racing Grand Prix.
Beia Triss was the champion, Bi took second place, and Li Qianxia was the runner-up.
"It looks like Quidditch from 'Harry Potter'; really, the culmination of magic is technology."
"chas! Actual chas! The official announcent said there had been a breakthrough with chas, I didnt expect them to be this advanced already!"
"You should just listen to the official news. They held a press conference half a year ago saying they aid to land on the Moon within five years, and look, the Moon Base has already been established in just half a year."
"It must be the result of cooperation with Russia, the little girl who won second place at the opening ceremony is said to be the Emperor's Princess."
"The Five Eyes Alliance has already announced their plans to march to Mars, intending to build a Mars Base within half a year."
As the replay finished, just as they entered the base, the guide truly left, leaving everyone in this strange city to do whatever they wanted, including keeping an eye on their children to prevent them from learning Qinggong again.
Zhang Ling took the public bus.
After getting on, she instinctively tried to pay. Only when she put her resident card on the scanner and the voice reminder started did she rember she could use any transportation on the Moon Base for free.
She got off at Ming City district and walked towards House No. 3.
Prettier than what was shown in the holographic images, the place boasted bright sunlight, clear glass, charmingly romantic red walls, and fragrant flowers.
She went in and, led by the smart furniture robot, toured the rooms inside the house.
Finally, she settled on the small balcony on the second floor and sat down, as the smart robot brought over so fruit.
The fruit looked peculiar, said to be products from Four Seasons Star. Zhang Ling couldn't resist trying a piece and found it delicious. The gloominess that had returned to her heart from being alone dissipated a bit.
Once again, a massive holographic image appeared in the sky, featuring the pretty girl who had won third place in the previous cha Racing competition.
"Hello everyone, my na is Li Qianxia, and I am one of the creators of this city. I would like to talk to you about the history of this city."
"Building this city was not for tourism, nor for colonization, nor for money."
"You might have noticed, Earth has been experiencing more and more strange incidents, with nearly everyone living under the threat of imminent danger."
"Kale Square in Ming City was one such danger."
"That incident was entirely my fault," the girl said.
