Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

"Please come with us Mr. Freddo."

All the kangaroos in the room looked at Fredo in panic. Many kangaroos had heard some rumors about Fredo. It was said that he was an alien and a madman.

The kangaroos who managed the farmland were also frightened. The kangaroos left the house one after another. The soldiers raised the laser transmitters in their hands and aimed at Fredo. The leader was a strong red furred kangaroo.

"I told you, I'm not Fredo."

Fredo observed the kangaroos around him. If they were surrounded at such a close distance, the situation would be a little bad. Moreover, the room was very large, and there were rumblings outside. The mecha was outside. Fredo picked up the table and put it on the table. cigar, and the other kangaroos became nervous for a while.

The leader of the Kangaroo Army said immediately.

"We are not going to do anything to you Mr. Freddo, the general wants to see you."

Fredo laughed, lit his cigar and stood up. Soon surrounded by kangaroos, Fredo was taken outside, and his motorcycle had been moved to a machine by soldiers from the 99 Kangaroo Branch. on a large aircraft.

Fredo could only follow the commander in front of him to board an aircraft, and soon the army took off. Although Fredo didn't know why the general of the 99th branch wanted to see him, he was sure that he was not in danger for the time being.

As for why his identity was exposed, Fredo now knew clearly in his mind that it was probably Meira and his group. Fredo laughed.

Passing through farmland after farmland, the aircraft gradually approached Branch 99. The tall and thick steel city walls could already be seen, with many kangaroos still patrolling above.

The city was brightly lit, with many buildings standing there, and the streets were full of jumping kangaroos. Fredo saw many human slaves, still helping some kangaroos carry things they got from the store.

The aircraft began to lower its altitude after crossing the city wall, and Fredo saw many people.

"Fredo, how about it? Our 99 branch has far more slaves on the street than you see in other branches."

Fredo nodded, he was also a little confused.

"My name is Nayin, and I am a student of the 101st batch of the Red Kangaroo Legion Military Academy. I remember you are in the 93rd batch."

Fredo hummed.

"Why are there so many human slaves in the city?"

Nayin reduced his flying speed and slowly slid over the city. The buildings of the kangaroos were basically uniform. The buildings were all 10 stories high, and the first floor of each building was a store.

The entire kangaroo society is a public co-production system. The class you belong to determines how much you can receive and how much work you need to do. What needs to be done is specific to each kangaroo.

Everything is distributed, including the composition of the kangaroo family. The same is true. If the male and female have difficulty getting along, they will separate and will not settle down until they match a suitable partner.

There is also an upper limit on the number of female partners a male can obtain. According to regulations, he can only obtain a maximum of ten partners. The kangaroo population is stable and growing, but because of the annual defense against blue-blooded people in the northeastern volcanoes, five legions of men are needed. kangaroo population, so the current population growth rate of kangaroos is too low.

"We are now short of manpower, so some of the work in the city can only be handed over to slaves."

Fredo smiled. Branch 99 was indeed a bit backward in technology. Looking at some of the technological facilities on the street, Fredo seemed to have seen some kangaroo branches from ten years ago.

"Our scientific and technological capabilities are low, so our productivity is not as good as other branches. The only thing we are proud of is food technology. The purpose of your coming here is for food technology."

After Nayin finished speaking, Fredo laughed. Unexpectedly, the other party knew exactly the purpose of his coming here.

"Who told you that I came here?"

Nayin smiled.

"Fredo, you should know better than me. I don't know who it is, but I received the general's order this afternoon."

Fredo snorted. The street was very lively. This was the first time for Fredo to come to this branch at the end. The Red Kangaroo Legion has a total of 99 branch cities. Branch 99 is at the end, and this ranking is consecutive. Not much has changed over the years.

Soon Fredo saw the General's Mansion located in the center of the city. This is the residence of the supreme commander of each kangaroo branch. It covers a very large area. There is a flat lawn in front, and on the left and right sides are some kangaroo soldiers' quarters. Behind it In the farmland in the center of the city, many slaves can be seen taking care of the lawn.

The aircraft landed, and Nayin jumped off first.

"Please, Fredo."

Fredo looked at the soldiers around him. Many of the weapons and equipment they carried were relatively backward. Kangaroo's technology was actually very simple. He first created technological components, which were made of unknown materials and were similar to crystals. It is the core of kangaroo technology.

The kangaroos have a substance called liquid alloy. As long as technological components are placed on it, the liquid alloy can freely generate technological products based on the technological conditions carried by the components.

After jumping up the steps, the mechanical door opened little by little. There was an exchange meeting going on inside. All the kangaroo executives from branch 99 were there. Fredo heard some music as soon as he entered. The kangaroos couldn't talk about music. Like it, it can only be regarded as a little change from the boring life.

Fredo saw a fat kangaroo at a glance. He was the general of Branch 99, Sim.

Soon Sim came over and many kangaroos looked at Fredo, this strange gray kangaroo.

"Fredo, let's go inside and talk."

After Fredo nodded, he followed Sim and jumped into a room on one side. There were no soldiers in the room, not even servants.

"Do you want the tech components in my hand?"

Fredo asked, but Xinmi shook his head and pointed to the cigars on the table, and Fredo took one.

"It is true that Commander Meira of the 77th branch told me that you came to our branch, but no matter how good the technology you have is, we can't use it. I have heard about some of your technology in the early years. I invited you here to ask how to solve some problems, and I hope you can give me some suggestions."

Fredo was a little surprised, but still nodded. Sim took out a crystal screen and quickly called up the production and rationing situation of the 99 branch over the years.

Food is already overcapacity across the board, and this number is increasing year by year. The most indispensable thing in kangaroo society is food, so no matter how much food the 99 branch has, it is meaningless in the eyes of other kangaroo branches.

The research and development of some technologies has almost stagnated. They have turned over less than 10 technologies in recent years, and they are negligible to the entire huge kangaroo technology system.

"General, what do you want to solve? Technology, or surplus food?"

"No, it's war."

Fredo looked at Sim with a solemn expression.

"war?"

"As you know, the relationship between our Red Kangaroo Legion and the Great Red Kangaroo Legion has always been a headache. More than 50 kilometers north of our branch is the 43rd Branch of the Great Red Kangaroo."

Fredo asked, looking at Sim in confusion.

“Why on earth is there a war?”

"There is no alternative but to war, and the situation is the same with the other branches. This division has existed for many years."

Fredo thought for a while and then said.

"Is it because of technology?"

Sim nodded.

"We have received orders from the Red Kangaroo Supreme Council to start preparing for war. Once the war starts, our 99 branch may become cannon fodder. To be honest, our soldiers' combat effectiveness is too poor. The same goes for tactical literacy. Years of peace have left us with few capable military talents."

Fredo probably understood what Sim meant.

"Do you want me to help you train and build an army?"

Sim nodded.

"We can give you what you want, but you have to train an army for us. I have heard a lot about you. In the past, you fought side by side with humans and won many victories in the territory of the Western Gray Kangaroo Legion. Less times, so I hope you can use your experience to help us train soldiers."

"Okay, but I have a condition."

Sim realizes what Fredo is trying to do.

"You want us to free the slaves and feed the slaves wandering the human cities, right?"

Fredo was a little surprised because he didn't expect this kangaroo to be so smart. ,

"Where are Meira and the others?"

"I did not accept their request for asylum. After all, their troops have very strong combat capabilities and their technology is better than ours today. Once they are allowed in, they will easily turn against the guests."

Fredo felt slightly reassured.

"General Sim, you are the smartest one among the many kangaroo generals I have ever met."

Sim laughed and reached out to take Fredo's hand.

"We are kind enough to the slaves here, you should see it too."

Fredo nodded. Indeed, in the farmland, the humans seemed very relaxed, and the kangaroos did not require them to work much before they could rest. Everything seemed freer.

"I always feel that if we continue like this, one day when the crisis comes, we will have no way to destroy it directly. Only by being more peaceful with other species can there be some changes. After all, humans are far smarter than us. many."

Fredo was shocked. He didn't expect such words to come from a general of the Kangaroo branch.

"It's surprising that I would say such a thing."

Fredo was indeed extremely surprised, because saying this was tantamount to being an outlier in kangaroo society.

"There was a very huge library in that dilapidated city. When I was young, I would go to the library from time to time to read books about the past of mankind. The more knowledge you gain, the broader the things you see. The more things come to mind.”

Fredo nodded. Indeed, what Sim said was right. Fredo also began to think about the world directly after learning about a large number of things left by humans.

After starting to think about the world, Fredo gradually understood that the current society has no way to lead to the future. Although the kangaroos' society is very stable under such a public ownership system, if it goes on for a long time, once someone appears at the top, If there is even the slightest problem, the whole society will collapse directly.

Fredo can already feel that the opportunity for the collapse of kangaroo society has appeared, because the war is about to break out. Fredo now knows that the more advanced mechas of Branch 99 that he saw before are, in terms of the capabilities of Branch 99, It cannot be manufactured, and I am afraid it must be obtained from other branches.

"Can you give me some food now? I want to bring it to a few of my friends."

Sim nodded, and then Sim ordered Nayin to take people with Fredo to deliver food.

"General, do you really want to free some slaves?"

Sim nodded.

"I will stay for a month to thoroughly plan and deploy something for you."

Fredo said, Sim nodded, and immediately summoned the commanders of the various legions and asked them to attend the meeting.

At 11 o'clock in the evening, more than a dozen aircraft loaded with food and water slowly stopped on the street. The empty streets were silent. Fredo walked directly into the underground garage, and the kangaroos watched with vigilance.

"Jamie, are you there? Don't worry, I have already negotiated terms with them."

Fredo shouted loudly. After a while, Fredo saw the people hiding in the underground garage coming out. Jason came up with weapons and the people. Fredo told General Sim what had been agreed upon. he.

Jason looked a little excited.

"Really?"

"Tomorrow morning, you can go to the farmland and take away everyone you want to take away."

Many people cheered for a while, but the kangaroos did not come over, but placed the water and food on the aircraft on the ground.

Just then Jamie ran over, he looked very scared.

"Why did you bring them here, Fredo?"

"There will be no problem for the time being, Jamie. I have already negotiated with them. I will stay here for a month. When I am free, I will take them to bring food and water. You take good care of Imogen. "

Jamie was a little unbelievable. Fredo turned around and walked among the kangaroos. He didn't know what kind of agreement Fredo had reached with the generals of Branch 99, but he was sure that they were not in danger for the time being.

The aircraft took off one after another, and more and more people came closer and began to carry food. Many people looked very happy, and the happiest one was probably Jason, who seemed very excited.

"Have you not seen her for a long time?"

Jason nodded.

"This kind of thing would never have happened in the past. Your friend Fredo is really different."

Jamie nodded.

“It feels like there’s something magical about all these things that happened in a short period of time.”

Jason hummed.

"Come on let's drink some more tonight."

Everyone is happy, this is unprecedented, the kangaroos will take the initiative to send them food and water, but some people are worried that this is only temporary, because the kangaroos already know where they are hiding.
