Although Bai Yan's hand was now free and he naturally placed his palm up on the bench, Ruan Mei did not put her hand on his again without his invitation.
In the square in front of the two, a little girl with long, bright green hair is playing with a blind child.
The female knight, who had already concealed her white inner armor and replaced it with soft armor, stood to the side, sensing the two children's every move.
This enlightener also has a visual impairment, and when she first came into contact with the child, she found it difficult to perceive any hope for survival in him.
The word "good" may seem distant to this child. This enlightener cannot simply abandon such a child.
In just a few days, this child gained more than one friend: Enlightener.
A little girl with long, emerald-green hair held a small harp, her delicate fingers plucking the strings, and melodious music began to play.
Perhaps it was Bai Yan's teaching, or perhaps it was Xiao Ya's innate intelligence, but she knew very well how to communicate amicably with a new friend who was blind.
People who have lost their sight often have more sensitive senses of touch and hearing.
Xiaoya gently plucked the strings of her small harp, and a clear and melodious tune slowly unfolded in the square, like a clear stream passing through the hustle and bustle, touching the heartstrings of everyone.
Even passersby in a hurry can't help but slow down, drawn in by the pure music, and listen attentively.
The musical notes are like light, leaping white flames, carrying no heat yet quietly igniting a glimmer of hope in the listener's heart.
This is not a blessing from [hope], but a feeling evoked by music, and it will not bring about any substantial change.
But the beauty and courage contained in this melody made many pedestrians stop and watch.
Ruan Mei raised her eyebrows slightly, recognizing the melody.
Although it was different from what she had heard at the beginning of her life, she could clearly hear that the melody was similar to the one that inspired the birth of [Hope].
Even though her musical talent was far inferior to that in life sciences, she understood that this piece was definitely not written by an ordinary person.
Bai Yan noticed the subtle change in Ruan Mei's expression, lowered his voice, and tried not to disturb Xiao Ya, saying to Ruan Mei, "Does it sound familiar? I may not have told you, but the Krus civilization and Raphael also have similar pieces."
At this moment, another voice familiar to both Bai Yan and Ruan Mei, Hei Ta's voice, came: "The song 'Running Towards the Other Shore of Dreams' has recently been included in this Amber Era's list of universal hits. The creator is an anonymous person."
Hei Ta strode over, sat down next to Bai Yan without any ceremony, and continued speaking.
“Every civilization has one such anonymous piece, without exception. One or two could be a coincidence, but how do you explain so many? Your children, and many others, suspected that this was your work, and indeed it was.”
Black Tower and Nguyen Mai had no doubt about the talent possessed by this god who had walked the world for countless years.
Even the female knight was listening intently, oblivious to Bai Yan's conversation. After all, it was music closely related to [hope].
However, they did not know that this was a piece composed by a father to celebrate the birth of his daughter.
Bai Yan's gaze swept over Xiao Ya, and then over the passersby who had stopped to watch: "The beautiful melody of life should not be enjoyed by me alone, should it?"
The song is over.
The pedestrians gradually dispersed.
Xiaoya handed her little harp to her new, blind friend and taught the little girl how to play.
The number of people in the square was just right, neither too quiet nor too crowded. Xiaoya's performance had already left a deep impression on the audience, and some had already gone up to speak with her to express their appreciation.
But at this moment, everyone kept their distance, and no one went to disturb the two adorable children who were talking.
Two small, tender hands were clasped together, their fingers still somewhat awkward in their coordination. Compared to Xiaoya's solo performance just now, the melody of this ensemble was intermittent and far from smooth.
However, no one present felt that the music was inferior at this moment. On the contrary, they thought that the melodious piano music was even more moving in this pure and experimental atmosphere.
Nguyen Mai and Hei Ta listened quietly.
While Xiaoya and the child stopped playing together and had a brief chat.
Heita suddenly remembered something: "So, you also wrote a piece of music for Xiaoya?"
To Ruan Mei and Heita's surprise, Bai Yan shook his head: "Not yet."
Understanding Ruan Mei and Heita's confusion, Bai Yan simply explained, "Once my dear assistant finishes the project related to Xiaoya, I will personally play it for her."
"Om-"
Black Tower's communication device vibrated. She glanced at it, stood up, and said, "Looks like I won't be able to hear it right away. I have a few meetings to attend. Let's talk again tonight."
After Hei Ta left, Bai Yan and Ruan Mei remained quietly seated on the bench, their hands not far apart.
At the same time, the Immortal Boat Alliance also issued an official response to the Fire Demon of the Pathfinder's declaration of war against Beloborg.
Chapter 160 For Your Plum Blossom Cake
On a bench some distance from the square, some people turned on their electronic devices, put on headphones, and played the response video from the Xianzhou Alliance.
Those who have just had "close contact" with the God of Creation are still very interested in the civilization related to the God of Creation.
Especially after the Annihilation Gang, who were like moths drawn to a flame, declared war on them, they became even more interested.
In the response video from the Fairy Boat Alliance, a diplomat stood solemnly on the podium.
"Greetings to representatives of interstellar civilizations and all life forms concerned about this event."
"Of course, this excludes bountiful spoils."
"On behalf of the Immortal Boat Alliance, I would like to state our position regarding the Annihilation Gang, led by the Fire Demon of the Tower and the Absolute, who has declared war on the Beloborg Civilization."
"Recently, disturbing news has spread throughout the world: the Annihilation Gang, a notorious organization widely recognized and condemned, has openly announced its intention to invade and destroy the Beloborg civilization."
"This action is not only a challenge to Belloberg, but also a provocation to the interstellar environment that all interstellar civilizations around the world are jointly protecting."
The spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs spoke with a firm and resolute tone.
"Except for matters involving abundant evil creatures, the Immortal Boat Alliance has always maintained a neutral stance. We believe that most differences and conflicts can be resolved through understanding, respect, and dialogue."
"However, this does not mean that we ignore or condone wrongdoing."
The diplomats' eyes shone with a firm and clear light, their expressions serious.
"The Angelic Civilization's [Life] Envoy has officially responded to this challenge and is preparing to confront the Annihilation Gang in Beloborg."
"Based on our understanding, the Annihilation Gang is not strong enough to threaten this envoy. The Beloborg civilization and its allies are fully capable of protecting themselves in terms of military strength and strategic options."
"Out of respect for the Angelic Civilization [Holy War], the Immortal Boat Alliance will maintain a respectful and supportive attitude in this conflict. We will not proactively intervene in this conflict in order to respect the independence and decisions of Belloberg and his allies."
The diplomats then shifted their focus and added to the declaration of non-intervention in the incident.
"If Beloberg or his allies request assistance in their fight against the Annihilation Gang, the Immortal Ship Alliance will not stand idly by. This is also in gratitude for the grace of the Creator, which allows us to do our part for their respective civilizations."
By placing "also thanks to the grace of the Creator" at the end of this sentence, the Immortal Boat Alliance clearly did not want others to think that they were supporting Beloborg because of a favor, nor did they want to be bound to the Creator because of it.
The attitude expressed by the Immortal Boat Alliance this time is also very simple.
We respect the angelic civilization's [holy war] and will not actively intervene in this battle, but if they need help, we will not hesitate to offer it.
This decision was made after a meeting of the six commanders of the various flagships of the Immortal Boat Alliance.
This response has been widely recognized by the people of Xianzhou.
They had just learned that, thanks to the blessing of the God of Creation, Luofu had broken through the encirclement of the Abundant Evil, not only escaping danger but also completely annihilating the Abundant Evil.
More people are willing to form alliances to get closer to the civilization related to the Creator and Destiny.
The only regret was that they couldn't watch the battle up close; they could only observe the development of the event through the interstellar network.
Besides the Immortal Boat Alliance, other interstellar civilizations have also expressed their opinions.
Most interstellar civilizations condemned the Annihilation Gang and also expressed their willingness to help Belloborg if he needed assistance.
They knew that with the Krus civilization and the Angel civilization around, Beloborg didn't need their help; they only needed verbal promises.
Aside from civilizations related to [life], few other civilizations are truly prepared to lend a helping hand.
Although the Immortal Boat Alliance's response in this regard was similar to that of most civilizations, they were truly prepared to help Belloborg and to establish diplomatic relations after the war.
The Luofu Immortal Ship is not far from Belloborg, and if they need help, we are ready to jump over there at any time.
The other flagships of the Immortal Ship Alliance had no doubt that Luo Fu's firepower was sufficient to provide support. Firstly, Luo Fu was the flagship of the Immortal Ship Alliance, and secondly, the newly appointed Sword Master of the Immortal Ship Alliance was also in Luo Fu.
There's no need for the Luofu Immortal Ship to jump over there; the Immortal Ship Alliance's Sword Master is more than willing to jump over and join the battle against those arrogant fools who dare to challenge the Creation God.
Besides the civilizations related to [life], there is another colossal entity that is also fully prepared to support Beloborg.
Director Toppa, the representative of Interstellar Peace Corporation, had already reported Belloberg's situation to headquarters.
They were prepared to support Belloborg, but did not act rashly after the Angelic Civilization responded to the declaration of war.
This demonstrates respect for the holy war waged by the angelic civilization, while also indicating that they will not stand idly by when Beloberg needs help.
Interstellar Peace Corporation, aware that such actions would not win the favor of the [Life] Star God, also stated in its declaration:
"This is not a pandering to the [Life] Star God, but a concrete action taken by the company for global peace."
There is nothing wrong with the actions of Interstellar Peace Corporation.
Some believe they were after the religious values behind Belloberg, while others say it was just for appearances.
However, it has also been noted that the Interstellar Peace Corporation seems to have changed recently. At least, its economic system hasn't collapsed because of their new civilization.
Bai Yan and Ruan Mei sat together on a bench in the square.
A while ago, when Ladio was texting him, he also told him: "Those idiots in the company have been acting against their common sense and people's stereotypes about them lately. If it weren't for Cripper's refusal to even glance at them, I would even suspect that the Star God smashed their golden heads with a hammer."
The actions of intelligent life are rarely purely altruistic, but regardless of the motives behind their pronouncements, they have indeed brought benefits to many civilizations.
Bai Yan, without glancing at Xiao Ya who was playing with the blind little girl, said to Ruan Mei beside him, "Do you think my purpose in inviting you to come along was pure?"
Ruan Mei looked straight at Xiaoya and answered Bai Yan's question: "At least the purpose I know of now includes plum blossom cake."
Bai Yan didn't turn around, and said calmly, "For your plum blossom cake."
Chapter 161 You cannot assume Ahab's actions, even after the actions have been confirmed.
In the dark universe, the burning Döfet ship is slowly making its way towards its destination, Belloborg.
Although the purple-haired woman never drew her sword, Alfred's ship was still badly damaged in the battle.
Upon receiving the signal from the Everfire Mansion, Alfred picked up the antique-looking, exquisite telephone.
From the signal of the Eternal Flame Mansion came the sound of flames burning and rising, along with the words: "My beloved Grand Duke, your Eternal Flame Mansion still burns as fiercely as ever. We have scorched a group of fools called the Masked Fools, burning them to ashes, and offering them to the benefactor of destruction."
