Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Pessimist

"That's what it means." As if he felt that he recognized someone with similar interests, the young man smiled, "If you're not a survivalist, why do you use this kind of firearm in this kind of sewer?" ”

Then he added: "But I also understand why you are reluctant to say it, presumably because you are afraid of being made fun of, especially us pessimists, who are easy to be scolded." ”

"But you have to believe me, I'm the same as you, but maybe a little pessimistic, can you let me touch your firearm?" With expectant eyes, he said to Song Yingsheng.

Song Yingsheng was quite speechless, and said so much nonsense, but in order to touch his gun, he sighed and said: "It's okay to touch it for you, but you have to finish it all and say what you are doing here, to be honest, I don't really understand what you are talking about." ”

"I see, are you still doubting me?" When the young man heard Song Yingsheng's questioning, he didn't get angry, but became excited: "Then I'll talk about my thoughts first, sir, you can also add it." ”

"In my mind, there is currently a war between the Zerg and the humans, although we humans are very strong, but we do not rule out some possibility, such as the Zerg winning, and then the Blue Star is invaded by the Zerg."

"When the time comes, when the ground is occupied by the Zerg, the sewers may be a good base for confrontation, so I will come here, sir, I guess that's the case, right?"

"And, sir, you must have taken into account that exoskeletons, laser guns and other things are more difficult to repair, so you will use that kind of old gun, after all, now anyone with nineteen years of free education can repair this kind of firearm, but laser guns, maybe."

"But I still think it's the melee weapons that are the most useful." Speaking of this, the young man took out a saber, "Look at it, this should be the sharpest synthetic material in the world, but be careful, most things, whether it is steel or alloy, it can be easily cut." ”

and threw a metal object out of his pocket and cut it in half with a knife, Song Yingsheng was a little dumbfounded.

This is the future of chemical engineering, no, the development of materials science! It's really powerful enough, I don't know how much technology can be developed if I can bring it back to modern times.......

Of course, the more likely thing is that I will be interrogated from where I got it...... Thinking of this, Song Yingsheng shook his head, did not think about this thought again, but replied:

"You're right, melee weapons are really useful."

"So, do you have a similar knife, can you lend me one?"

At this time, he obviously wanted to take advantage of honest people, so he made the young man stunned for a while, and waited for a while before saying:

"Yes, yes, but ......."

"You'll have to trade it for a similar firearm." He pointed to the gun in Song Yingsheng's hand.

Song Yingsheng nodded, anyway, it was only about a hundred plot coins, and he could buy a new one, and then hand it over, and the two of them played with the weapons in their hands together, and they were very satisfied with this transaction.

The young man couldn't help but say excitedly: "This must be an antique, it should be two hundred, no, three hundred years old, it should be the product left over from the world war, sir, how did you get it?" ”

"Confidential." Song Yingsheng shook his head, saying that he didn't really want to say it, so the young man quickly nodded, pointing out that he wouldn't ask, and then shut up.

In his mind, the man in front of him must have some extraordinary means, and he didn't want to offend him, so he chose to be silent and changed the topic to the other side: "Then I won't ask, by the way, what I said before, Mr. must also agree, right?" ”

He was referring to stupid words like what the sewers would use as a base of confrontation after the Zerg wiped out the human race.

Of course, Song Yingsheng didn't believe it, Bi Xing's example has shown that he is simply lying down to win, and it is impossible for humans to lose, but he still decided to pretend to admit his thoughts for the time being, after all, he has no job to do now, it is better to find someone to let himself eat and live in vain, and then replied:

"Of course I understand your thoughts, that's why I'm here, but unfortunately, what I can see now is just rats at most, can such a place really become a base for resistance?"

"Not right now." Hearing Song Yingsheng's criticism, the young man said that he understood very well: "But as long as there are more people, no, even give me a period of time, I can definitely build a place here that can produce and support myself." ”

"You may not know, but I also thought about how to move the facilities down there." In the light of Song Yingsheng's torches, the young man was holding up his finger and pointing to the dripping ceiling: "But then I gave up, and now I am thinking, why not treat the sewers as an alien environment?" ”

"In that case, the question is much simpler, how we conquered Mars decades ago, and what we are doing now, sir, you should remember, right?"

"Of course I do." Song Yingsheng began to talk nonsense: "It's nothing more than solving basic problems such as water source and temperature." ”

"Exactly!" Unexpectedly, he was really right, and the young man said excitedly: "So I have built a water recycling system here, which can recycle at least 70% of our urine, sweat, etc., plus the sewage purification system, the rainwater flowing down above will definitely not be a problem." ”

"As for the temperature, you don't need to care about it either, as long as you ........" The young man continued to talk about his grand cause, and he could only hear Song Yingsheng next to him, and he was stunned for a moment.

Even, he talked for half an hour in one breath, his saliva was flying, and Song Yingsheng felt that why such a talent did not go to colonize aliens, but came here.

He hurriedly replied, "So, that's it, and then like this, it can be like this, right?" ”

"Yes, that's it! I'm really happy to be friends with my husband. The young man was glad that someone had heard him say so much, and if he had said that to other people, they would have thought him crazy:

"It just so happens that we're almost at the base, do you want to go inside and take a look at what I'm talking about?"

Song Yingsheng looked at the sewers that extended in all directions, and didn't understand how the young man had found all the way back here, but he still nodded, expressed his willingness, and arrived at his base with the young man.

And from the moment he entered, his eyes immediately showed that he was connected to the Internet, which made Song Yingsheng a little helpless and asked this question.

The young man smiled bitterly and said, "No way, according to Maslow's hierarchy of needs, wifi is the most necessary, so there must be a connection here." ”

"But that's not the point, do you want to stay here for a while? Definitely, a good experience. Don't be afraid, there will be rats or something, I have a way to deal with ......."

"Okay, then it's better to be respectful than to obey." Song Yingsheng smiled, anyway, he didn't have a place to live, so he lived in the 'base' in the sewer.
