Chapter 232 An unexpected surprise
Hard work pays off. After a long and arduous search, we finally found a charming and cozy courtyard nestled in a lush, tree-lined area, quietly awaiting its new owner. Like a shining pearl hidden in the lush green forest, it exudes a captivating charm.
It's gently surrounded by a neatly fenced wall, like a small world separate from the hustle and bustle of the world, giving people a sense of secluded tranquility. To be honest, since embarking on this interstellar journey, through countless storms and wanderings, I have never seen such a unique and heart-warming courtyard.
Filled with anticipation and joy, we gently pushed open the courtyard gate and slowly entered this mysterious little world. The first thing that caught our eye was the towering, lush, ancient tree. Its thick trunk, as solid and powerful as a giant's, firmly rooted in the earth, seemed to carry the vicissitudes of time and its stories. Its lush branches and leaves stretched out like a giant, naturally forming a green umbrella, shading the sky and providing a cool and pleasant shade for this small world. A gentle breeze rustled the leaves, whispering stories of the past. He enthusiastically showed us around. The courtyard contained several small, warmly decorated rooms. In the corners, some small, yet vibrant, flowers, unknown in name, bloomed.
As soon as the children stepped into the yard, they couldn't contain their joy, and their screams echoed throughout the courtyard. Like wild horses unbridled, they instantly broke into a frenzy of activity. Some were captivated by the vibrant butterflies, following their fluttering figures relentlessly. Others, filled with curiosity about the flowers and plants in the yard, crouched down to examine them closely, gently touching the petals and leaves with their tiny hands, feeling the wonder and beauty of nature.
Every day in the days that followed was filled with anticipation. Early in the morning, we would take our excited children on an expedition to explore Snow Planet. This mysterious and beautiful planet held so many awe-inspiring attractions! One day, we arrived at a magnificent volcanic waterfall. The fiery red lava rushed down from the mountaintop like a fiery dragon, colliding violently with the clear, cool spring water, creating a breathtaking spectacle of countless splashes and clouds of water. The children stared with eyes wide open, their mouths gaping, utterly captivated by the spectacle before them.
Another time, we entered an ancient forest maze. Tall, dense trees intertwined, and the intricate paths made it feel like a giant maze. At first, the children ran excitedly ahead, but soon lost their way. However, they didn't panic. Instead, they encouraged and helped each other, searching for the exit. After much effort, they finally made it out. This thrilling and exciting experience left an indelible impression on each child.
It's already the fifth day of our journey on Snow Planet! Counting on my fingers, in just two days, we'll have to say goodbye to this beautiful planet and set sail for the next mysterious one. At that moment, my eyes stole onto the exquisite mecha model in Lele's hands, and a warm feeling welled up in my heart. I know full well that owning a cool mecha of my own has always been Lele's deepest dream.
You know, the renowned Third Legion's headquarters is located on Snow Planet! And it's said that the Third Legion's mechas are the most advanced and powerful in the entire vast empire! Lele's idol, Admiral Ed, leads this elite legion. Even more fascinating, the legendary mecha designer is also affiliated with this planet! If we were lucky enough to see those awe-inspiring mechas firsthand on this trip to Snow Planet, and even get up close and personal with Admiral Ed, I can't even imagine the sheer joy Lele would feel!
With such wonderful expectations in mind, I decided to give it a try. I mustered up the courage to try to contact Admiral Ed and told him everything about Lele. Unexpectedly, a miracle actually happened!
The next morning, as the warm sun gently bathed our courtyard, a deafening roar, like rolling thunder, echoed from the distant sky, growing louder and closer. The children, previously immersed in their own little worlds, were startled by the sudden roar and looked up curiously. Their eyes instantly lit up with excitement and anticipation.
As the roars drew closer, everyone finally saw clearly: a few tiny black dots had appeared in the jewel-blue sky. These tiny dots flew towards us at lightning speed. Once they were close enough, everyone was pleasantly surprised to discover that they were actually several majestic and powerful mechas!
Lele, who was standing aside, was already so excited that his face turned red. His little hands were tightly clenched around the treasured mecha model, as if he was afraid that it would disappear.
A massive, impressive mech slowly landed on a wide, flat surface nearby, shuddering and creaking to a stop. Then, the hatch slowly opened, revealing several dashing soldiers in uniform. After a brief exchange, we learned they were part of the renowned Third Legion, responsible for routine patrols in this area.
After learning the purpose of our visit, one of the soldiers smiled and said to us in a friendly tone, "I have to say, your luck is incredible! Just today, our respected Admiral Ed happened to be conducting an inspection nearby. If all goes well, you may have the honor of seeing this legendary figure in person."
Upon hearing the news, the already excited children suddenly burst into cheers. Especially Lele, who was so happy that he danced with joy and even jumped for joy.
Sure enough, not long after, Admiral Ed's tall, upright figure appeared before us. He approached us with steady, powerful steps, a kind smile on his face, and he gently greeted each child. When his eyes fell on the exquisite mecha model tightly grasped in Lele's hands, Admiral Ed couldn't help but stop, his eyes filled with admiration, and he whispered, "Little girl, you have good taste! This mecha model you chose is quite good."
Standing next to the Admiral was the renowned mecha designer. He seemed to notice the children's eagerness to learn about mechas, so he stepped forward and, using accessible, engaging language, concisely explained the complex and intricate mechanisms of mecha construction. Lele listened intently, his bright eyes unblinking, as if completely immersed in the magical world of mechas, their eyes sparkling with excitement and yearning.
