The environment inside the cabin formed a sharp contrast with the outside world. In this dark space, only the faint light on the control panel resembled the distant stars in the night sky, guiding Neil. Just then, Macol's voice pierced the silence, delivering calm and confident instructions: "The technical department has confirmed successful passage. You can now activate the observation system." 0
 
Neil reached out and touched several virtual buttons in front of the observation platform. Immediately, a beam of light illuminated the screen ahead, revealing a beautiful new world that left Neil breathless. 0
 
 
He saw a stretch of sea, but this sea was completely different from any ocean he had known before. The water here presented a dreamlike blue, transitioning from a deep, bottomless dark blue to a bright, light blue under the sunlight. These blues seemed to be painted on with the finest brush, and every drop of water was full of life. 0
 
Islands were scattered in this sea, shining like emeralds, scattered randomly on this natural blue canvas. The buildings on the islands appeared harmonious and beautiful, made of smooth stones and primitive wood. Particularly striking was a circular building on one of the islands, surrounding a central square, giving the impression that this was a society that valued collectivity and sharing. 0
 
 
On the distant cliff, tall trees sway gently, as if singing along with the sea breeze. Neil can even sense the faint fragrance permeating through the leaves. On the sea, a ship made of ropes and wood sails leisurely, with people on board singing loudly, full of vitality and joy. 0
 
All of this seems to have walked out of a dreamlike painting, and Neil feels deeply attracted to this beauty. He cannot put into words the feelings he has at this moment; it's as if this place is the ideal he has been searching for but never realized. 0
 
 
However, Neil suddenly realized that he was an observer, and all this magnificent scenery was just a part of his job. But even so, this beauty had profoundly affected him, making him more determined to explore the Multiverse. 0
 
The communicator once again transmitted Macol's voice, asking, "Neil, are you okay?" 0
 
 
Neil gently bit his lip and replied with a barely audible sigh, "I'm fine, Macol, very fine. I'm ready to start observing this world." 0
 
At that moment, Neil deeply felt that even as a calm and rational observer, human emotions cannot be completely suppressed. Perhaps this was the first and most important lesson that Multiverse had given him. 0
 
 
Macol's voice once again pierced through the darkness, interrupting Neil's immersion in the beautiful world. "Neil, your mission is to comprehensively gather the political, cultural, racial, and imminent war reasons in this area. This is not just an observation, it's a deep analysis. Are you ready?" 0
 
Neil hesitated for a moment, then firmly pressed a series of commands. "I'm ready, Macol." 0
 
 
Neil took a deep breath and refocused his attention on the control panel of the observation station. The screen of the comprehensive observation instrument displayed the Multiverse region of Hekate, a world that lay before him, waiting for him to explore its depths. 0
 
The first thing that caught his eye was the city of Cyrus, a bustling metropolis located by the sea. From high above, he could see merchant ships coming and going in the dock area, while the streets of the city were lined with ancient and magnificent buildings. Vendors were calling out in the Macol et, selling all kinds of local goods. Neil noticed that the people here dressed elegantly and interacted with others in a polite and rational manner. 0
 
 
"This culture seems to value commercial activities and cultural exchanges," Neil thought, then made a quick note on the control panel. 0
 
The perspective switched again, to the inland city of Agnes. Here, in stark contrast to Cyrus, most men were dressed in warrior attire, wielding various weapons as they practiced in open training grounds. Women and children were busy in the fields, indicating that this was evidently a society focused on agriculture and military affairs. 0
 
 
"Agnes seems to be a place that values tradition and social order," Neil updated his observation log once again. 0
 
Suddenly, his attention was drawn to an ongoing diplomatic conference. In a magnificent hall in the city of Cyrus, senior officials of Cyrus and representatives of Agnes were engaged in intense discussions. The topic, unsurprisingly, was the resource-rich island of Hecate. Cyrus's representatives attempted to persuade the other side with fluent and clever rhetoric, while Agnes's envoys asserted their territorial claims to the island with firm and direct language. 0
 
 
" The confrontation between these two cities may escalate into a major conflict very soon," Neil realized this and immediately initiated communication with Macol, reporting his findings and analysis in a rapid but detailed manner. 0
 
Macol responded calmly, "Understood, Neil. Please organize your observations and analysis into a report, we will further discuss it in the upcoming meeting." 0
 
 
Neil felt a little pressure, knowing that even if he completed this observation mission, the two cities on the brink of conflict might still be unable to avoid the impending disaster. 0
 
Neil sat in the observation station chair, his gaze shifting to a small icon on the control panel - the communication link had been established, and Macol's calm voice came through again. 0
 
 
"Neil, based on your observations, it seems that the conflict between these two cities is quite severe. I need you to dig deeper and find the root cause of the conflict. This is crucial for our understanding of the social dynamics in this Multiverse region." 0
