How the Zergs were Made

Chapter 138 Purpose

"Uh... not human?"

Commander Allen felt that he could not keep up with Marvin's brain circuit, and even the assistant who had been helping Marvin for a long time looked dazed and slow.

With a serious expression, Marvin pointed to the scattered fragments of transparent containers on the ground, as well as the blood-stained dissecting table.

"These things were originally filled with organs dissected from monsters..."

"On the dissecting table, there is also a half-dissected monster..."

"But now that these are gone, don't you think it's strange?"

"And here."

With that said, Marvin walked to the desk and patted the tabletop.

"There used to be a mountain of data here, which is all the previous experimental data left after I conducted the experiment. The amount enough to bury a person is gone."

"There wasn't any burning ash or confetti in the room, and there wasn't even a single bit of minced meat, which was 'abnormal'."

"You heard what the assistant said just now. The intruder didn't hold anything in his hand. Now you still think that guy is an ordinary beggar?"

After hearing Marvin's analysis, Commander Allen realized the details they had overlooked before.

Augustus and other high-level executives looked at each other, and they could see the unrest in each other's hearts.

At this time, Si, who was making a fuss in the laboratory, was unaware of the fact that he was being paid attention to by the high-level aliens, and wandered aimlessly in the shelter.

Suddenly, it stopped in its tracks, showing a dazed look, and then it remembered its purpose for sneaking into this dangerous area this time.

"How did I forget this..."

"Uh... forget?"

"The aliens' physical performance is just low, and they actually use neurons that are prone to information loss. It's no wonder that the will did not join this design at the beginning, but used the method of genetic memory."

Criticizing the physical backwardness of the aliens rather disgustingly, Si purposefully began to look for the aliens active in the shelter.

It was a soldier, and he was still holding the live ammunition weapon that Si had seen not long ago. At this time, the other party was walking with his back to Si, and did not realize the existence of Si.

"Hello……"

The soldier was visibly startled by the voice behind him.

This is a normal reaction. Aliens can hear infrasound waves, and soldiers have undergone special training and strengthening in this area, so they will be more sensitive to sound waves. But just now he didn't even realize that the other party approached him. Skills are undoubtedly terrifying.

Being able to hide the sound of one's footsteps in the background infrasound waves of the surrounding environment is quite difficult even for the "soldier king" in the imperial army.

However, his good military quality prevents him from being disturbed by flustered emotions. His thoughts flow between lightning and flint, and his body is completely handed over to the fighting instincts he has trained for a long time. He can turn around with a gun in one go, and he can enter the fighting state at any time.

"……I have no ill intentions……"

Seeing such a fierce reaction from the other party, Si used the alien language that he was not very proficient to express himself without any kindness.

beggar?

The soldier saw the comer clearly, but he didn't intend to put down his weapon, and pointed the gun in his hand at Si with a vigilant expression.

In his opinion, the beggar in front of him seemed too "abnormal", able to hide his own infrasound into the background infrasound like the "Soldier King", with a mechanical tone of neither high nor low, neither fast nor slow, rigid The facial expression, even when smiling, looks very stiff - not like a person, more like a machine.

"Civilian, why are you in this kind of place?"

A soldier is like a lion locking on its prey. As long as the beggar in front of him moves slightly, he will immediately pull the trigger to make the opponent's forehead explode. The abnormality shown by the opponent really makes him feel uncomfortable.

As a member of the collectors, I communicate through the life field channel on weekdays. Let alone lying, I have never even come into contact with the concept of lying. Therefore, Si truthfully explained the purpose of sneaking into this colony to the soldier.

"...I... am... looking for a book..."

"Book?"

The soldier looked up and down again at the alien body of Kesi, the dirty beggar's appearance, the clothes were all tattered clothes, which were full of various mended patches.

He can understand if he is begging for food. After all, as a useless beggar, the bottom of the society, and the waste that has been completely eliminated, the place of shelter will only be those who want to beg for life in the shelter. difficulty.

But what is the answer?

Book?

Beggars also read books?

Can they understand it?

The soldier's curiosity was aroused.

Si nodded vigorously at the soldier and replied.

"……Yes…"

"What book are you looking for?"

It was a book that almost illiterate beggars would have to look for. The soldier was very curious about what kind of book it was.

Of course, curiosity is nothing but curiosity, but the gun has not been lowered, and his vigilance against this beggar is still very high.

After thinking about it, it understands the meaning of expression, but the difficulty lies in how to tell the other party in the language of the alien. It tries to explain the place it wants to go by using description.

"...many...books you can...read..."

"...that kind of...room where...books..."

While speaking, Si was still gesturing with his hands.

Although it was vague, the soldier still fully understood what Si wanted to express.

"The library?"

When the soldier uttered the term uncertainly, Si's eyes lit up obviously. That was exactly the place it was looking for, a room with many books.

"Why do you want to go there?"

Si tilted his head and thought for a while, then gave the answer in his heart.

"...read...books...study..."

"..."

The soldier was stunned by Si's answer on the spot, as if he had heard the biggest cold joke in history, and even his expression froze—the kind of beggar who looks like non-recyclable garbage in society, can only rely on government relief, and lives in a muddle-headed way every day Want to read and study? !

But then, the soldier realized that for a beggar who seemed to have mental problems, he couldn't deduce what he was thinking about according to common sense. There was no one in the library because of the lack of manpower.

Let this beggar with mental problems go to that place, and save himself the trouble of imprisoning the beggar in a confinement room.

"The library is not in this area, you went wrong."

"This is a martial law area, and civilians are prohibited from entering. The library is in the civilian area. Turn around and go straight along the passage, pass the sixteenth corner, then turn left, and turn right at the first intersection. There is a road on that road." Sub-public map, the follow-up road, you just need to look at the map to know how to get there."

"…Thanks……"

After receiving the explanation, Si thanked the soldier and said goodbye to him.

It goes without saying that the soldier was in a good mood as he watched the figure of Zhuosi disappear around the corner. He dealt with a madman beggar and made the other party grateful. This undoubtedly added a lot of talk to him after dinner.

However, this good mood was quickly ruined by the wanted information sent from the communication list.

That is the wanted information for 'Si'.

"Um?!"
