Chapter 144: Farewell

All the books in the library were gone, replaced by a huge number of white debris, covering the floor of the entire library like chicken feathers, which were fragments of the shell that had fallen off after metabolism.

The crumbs were formerly the books in the library, and after memorizing the contents of the books, these things became food to fill the state of hunger.

Not all books are placed outside for browsing, most of the books are locked, and these books themselves will not be taken out by aliens to read, because they are easy to cause damage, and they simply exist as a carrier of information records.

Aliens want to enter the library to flip through the books, in the reading area of the library to flip through the electronic version, the electronic version is very convenient to browse, and do not worry about damaging the book, the only disadvantage is that it is not easy to save information, after all, the electronic hardware is more sophisticated, in the information preservation, the information stored in the form of electric charge is not as reliable as the text information written on the paper.

Therefore, after 'digging a hole to penetrate the light', Si did not stop using the monomolecular blade, and as a result, the feeling of satiety that had been difficult to satisfy disappeared, and the hunger after excessive energy consumption came to mind again, and history is always strikingly similar.

Si shook his body as a gatherer, and another shell was shed, and now it didn't feel too hungry because of eating books, but a certain problem became more and more prominent.

"I'm so thirsty......"

Although Si has tried to reduce the loss of water as much as possible, what is ultimately lost is still lost, which is nothing more than the length of time, and now Si needs to replenish water to his body.

It remembered the room where it had gotten its food.

Take the delicious broth......

Thinking about going and looking again, maybe you can come across similar food left in that room again, and if not, you can also go through the ventilation duct and see if there is any food in the other place in front of you.

With such an abacus, Si pressed the button to open the door and prepared to leave, however......

Because Si's previous stealing of broth was exposed, the aliens focused their attention on the inside of the ventilation system.

In order to facilitate emergency repairs in the event of an accident on the colonial ship, the designers did not add a mechanical layout of fan blades in the ventilation ducts, which is the fundamental reason why the ventilation ducts can be unobstructed.

This also added a lot of difficulty to the headquarters, they had to deploy the soldiers at each vent, and then check each section of the ventilation duct one by one.

This scheme is very safe, but it is more time-consuming, but once the target is found, it means that the other party is already a turtle in the urn, in order to maximize the use of space, the ventilation duct in the colonial ship adopts a one-piece design, the strength is higher than those airtight doors in the passage, and the lateral destruction requires a large amount of high explosives.

Outside the door of the library, there is a team of soldiers stationed here, because there is also a vent here, which is the one that I entered before.

"Captain, the ......"

"John, if you have anything to say, I am different from other captains, I am not a dictatorship, as long as your words do not violate taboos."

Seeing the appearance of his team members who wanted to speak and stopped, the captain replied.

"Captain, I don't think the target is going to come out of this vent."

"It's easy to understand by simply thinking about it, the other party is just a beast, and it is from this vent that it is being pursued into the ventilation duct system, it should subconsciously think that this vent is a deadly threat, and will not choose to come out of here, it is better for us to ......"

Before he could finish speaking, John's words were interrupted by the captain.

"John, there is no need to say such nonsense in the future, given that you have just become a member of the team for a short time, I will not give you any punishment, however, there is no next time."

"I've seen your information, the great nobles from the imperial capital, you are in a hurry to prove your strength to your family, but this is a battlefield, you can't tolerate any sloppiness, this is not a movie, it's better for me to throw the personal hero's family aside, there is only one thing a soldier has to do, obey orders, understand?"

The captain's words were very steady, not slow, but there was a faint sense of strength, and several team members who were familiar with their captain knew that their captain was a little annoyed, and the reason why he didn't get angry on the spot was because the other party was a noble newcomer who had just entered the team, and it was also hindered by the point of 'not engaging in dictatorship' in the words just now.

John didn't seem to see this, and continued to ask very stupid questions.

"But Captain, if we don't catch the target before the other teams, we just give the merit to others? If this is the case every time, then when will we get enough merit to be promoted to the rank of knight? ”

It's like a fire coming out of a pile of dry wood, or the kind that has been poured with gasoline.

Just when the team members thought that the captain was going to be angry and was ready to stop them, the captain of the team suddenly became uncharacteristically quiet.

"Hey, boy, you haven't even experienced the most basic military literacy training, have you?"

As soon as the captain's words came out, John's behavior was obvious, although it was only for a moment, but it didn't help, the people present were not vegetarians, and their reactions were extremely sensitive, equivalent to the shutter camera taking hundreds of photos in one second.

"John, that letter of introduction shouldn't be yours, right? In the letter, General Noray is full of praise for the ability of the letter bearer, but you are so bad at military literacy. ”

"Or do you want to say that this is the result of the old general opening the back door?"

"John, think about it, if you say something inappropriate next, you will be court-martialed."

The captain's tone was a little unkind, in the army, he belonged to the line of the old general Noray, so he would accept this recruit named John unusually, let him directly temper in the team and grow rapidly.

Because there was no battle before, the captain of the team had never noticed John's abnormality, after all, even if he was outstanding, he was only a recruit in the final analysis, and it was easy to understand all the problems that arose in training.

But now it's different, if you can't pass the military literacy, with the captain's understanding of the old general's stubborn temper, it is impossible to give a letter of introduction, even if the Führer goes, it's useless.

Under this kind of questioning, John finally couldn't resist the pressure, gritted his teeth, he decided to explain the matter, in the end, he was also forced to get the letter of introduction, and it should not be him who should bear the blame.

"Actually, I was forced to take the ...... by the letter bearer."

Before he finished speaking, something happened that everyone didn't expect.

The door of the library that they subconsciously thought should not be opened suddenly opened, and the eyes of several people and beasts made contact, and they looked at each other directly.

At this moment, even the air seemed to freeze.
