Han had never heard the name of Grant Mining.

This is normal, as the Alliance spans thousands of light-years, has dozens of habitable planets, countless mining stars, and is home to a wide variety of companies in various industries.

Gen Jizi followed Han Jifei all the way into the outsider's building, which was full of incredible devices, and found that her eyes were soon running out.

In addition to the Iron Men in all their forms, there are also iron doors that open automatically, transparent walls, moving murals, and translucent images in the air......

Han Jianfei smiled and explained to her one by one what these magical things were called and what they were for. Although she didn't understand it, she was almost greedy and desperate to memorize and absorb knowledge that had never appeared in her life.

Soon, Han Jianfei stopped in a hall.

Genchiko followed, and found that in this empty hall, there was only one thing like a huge plate in the middle, so she wondered, "What is this?" ”

"This should be a conference room," Mr. Han said, "but it's the only computer that can be operated directly." ”

Gentomoko had already received too much information today, so she didn't bother to ask what a "computer" was.

Han Jifei opened the display computer in the conference room, and it was no surprise that the huge holographic display began to play the holographic video of the Grant Mining Company.

From the promotional video, Han Jianfei finally figured out where he was.

This is a planetary system more than 300 light-years away from the capital circle of the Alliance, composed of two stars orbiting each other and four planets around them, the official name of the Alliance is "Xia Zhi Galaxy", and the planet where they are located is the official name of the Alliance "Xia Zhi Moon".

It wasn't until thirty standard years ago that the Coalition discovered the habitable satellite and listed it as a protected area for the independent development of civilization.

The mining company obtained the mining license in 20 years and was authorized by the Alliance's Industrial and Commercial Management Committee to carry out ore mining operations on this satellite.

Since he is not connected to the pan-alliance Internet, he can only get this information.

Han Jianfei couldn't help but touch the ice iron ring on his left hand that had not moved since he jumped here, it was really hard to imagine what kind of civilization and their terrifying technology could turn a living person into a planet more than three hundred light-years away out of thin air!

The promotional video was set to play on a loop, Han Jianfei only watched it once, and when he saw that Gen Zhizi was still unsatisfied, he went to the living area to look around, and when he came back, the girl was still watching those cliché-like commercials with relish.

He walked over, turned off the holographic video, and took a casual look, and sure enough, the operating system of this computer is native, and there is a complete set of alliance general version of the computer operation enlightenment.

So he opened the teaching software that came with the operating system, and said to the barefoot girl who was very curious about everything: "Just learn from this, I was going to take you out and teach it slowly, since there is here, you can watch it first." ”

The mining company should not be short of money to install such a flashy and impractical display system in a completely unattended mining base, but that's fine, after all, not everyone's computer initiation class can be carried out in an expensive business jet. Han Jianfei thought so.

After settling the curious Tomoko, Han Jianfei came to the transparent glass covered bridge between the living area and the work area, from which he could clearly see the scene of the mining operation area and the office area below, but at the end of the covered bridge were two dutifully armed robots.

If he has access to the office area, he can get more information, such as the running schedule of the mine ship, the operation log, and even when the company's real employees will come.

Han Jianfei looked at the armed robot guarding the end of the covered bridge and gave up the idea of breaking in.

If his kinetic barrier is still there, he can try.

Han Jianfei left the bridge and encountered a robot cleaning outside the staff dormitory area, and asked casually: "Hey, do you know when the next manual operation will be?" ”

The robot stopped what it was doing, and its eyes flashed a few times: "Hello, Mr. He, your request for help for evacuation will depart with the mine ship in two hours and forty-three minutes, and the headquarters will immediately coordinate with the civil affairs department after receiving the information, and it is expected that the rescue ship will arrive at the base in five days at most, and before that, there is no other work plan." ”

The robot said that the local time was five days, and if there were no accidents, it should be five long days and nights, which is equivalent to three to four months for Fort Augustus.

"Is there any food in the base?"

"I'm sorry, Mr. He, this base is not designed for long-term manual operations, considering that the frequency of manual operations is extremely low, the base generally does not store food."

"Okay, can you provide some weapons?"

"Sorry, Mr. Ho, according to the laws of the Alliance, we cannot provide lethal weapons to any citizens of the Alliance."

Han Jianfei nodded, knowing that no living person would come in the short term.

When he returned to the conference room, Gentomoko was still learning how to use the computer, she was very smart, and although she didn't have much foundation, she was already able to use gestures and anchors smoothly.

"You take your time," he said, "I guess we won't be able to leave anytime soon, and when you're done, we'll go back to Hedong Village." ”

Gentomoko, who was learning basic input operations, raised her head: "Can't you go?" ”

"Not really," Han Jianfei shook his head, "but it won't be until five long days and nights—didn't you say before that the cold season is coming?" We're here, and we probably won't last that long. ”

Gentomoko counted the time and knew he was right.

"It's okay," Han Jianfei said, "You can learn slowly, we don't have a little time." ”

In the next few cycles, in addition to eating and sleeping, Gen Zhizi has been sitting in the conference room, absorbing knowledge about modern civilization like a glutton, and Han Jianfei sits beside her, reminding her from time to time whenever she has an incomprehensible concept.

How to make a person who has never been exposed to modern civilization understand the civilized world as quickly as possible? The quickest way to do this is, of course, film and television productions, but there is not much content in this computer that is not connected to the pan-alliance Internet, and the only remaining videos are the promotional video of Grant Mining Company and a sample movie that comes with the operating system.

Even so, Gen Zhizi has watched it countless times, and even Han Jianfei, who yawns constantly, can recite every line in the movie.

Soon, the dry food and meat of the beasts they had hunted on the road were running out, and Gentomoko had to leave the magical device known as the "computer".

According to Gentomoko, when the two set off at this time and returned to the village, the cold season was almost here, and the local cold season lasted at least ten long days and nights, that is, when the rescue ship arrived, it should be the cold season when the mountains were covered by heavy snow, the coldest season of the year.

So before leaving, Han Jianfei left a letter to the rescue ship that might arrive in the name of "He Youzai, a citizen of the Fallen Alliance", saying that because there was not enough food in the base, he had to return to the village of the indigenous people to spend the cold season, please leave a spaceship that can carry people, or equipment that can be contacted at any time.

As for the personnel of the civil affairs department of the alliance who came to the rescue, whether they will agree or not, then it can only be left to fate.

After doing everything well, Han Jianfei and Gen Zhizi embarked on the road back to Hedong Village together.

I don't know if it was because the cold season was coming, but on the way back to the village, there seemed to be a lot less wild beasts, and the two had to take a detour to get enough rations, and finally climbed the mountain before the long night was over.

According to Genchiko's plan, the two planned to exchange animal skins for some corn and vegetables here, but when she took Han Jianfei and came to the village where the Arbor tribe was located according to her memory, she only saw ashes and ruins.

Gentomoko stared blankly at the once familiar village, but now the villagers here have long since disappeared, and the houses have burned down, leaving only a few smoking ashes.

Han Jianfei walked into this ruin and carefully observed every detail of it.

"There are hoof prints on the ground, and they are war horses, or other war beasts." He frowned, "This place must have been attacked by someone, a team of people on horses or something, smashing through the wall from here and rushing in. ”

He walked to the ashes of a wooden house: "The fire was lit later, except for the villagers who were obviously killed in battle, there is no trace of corpses burning in the village, and the people of this tribe were not slaughtered, they should have been taken away." ”

Genchiko, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "It's the people of the White Oak tribe, only they like to ride war beasts to hunt, but there shouldn't be so many of them. ”

Han Jianfei pointed to the ashes on the ground that exuded residual warmth: "Looking at the scale of the fire and the burning time, they should have just walked through two work and rest cycles, and if they take the people from Arbor Village, they shouldn't go too far." ”

Genchiko nodded: "Let's go over and have a look." ”

The two walked downstream along the river, and sure enough, a few hours later, they found hoof prints, tree bark eaten by war beasts, and human feces, which numbered nearly a thousand people.

And the White Oak tribe will definitely not exceed three hundred people, including men, women and children.

The two men followed the footsteps, and the attackers seemed to have made a big circle in the woods, burning down the villages of every tribe and plundering all the populations along the way.

After two cycles of work and rest, the two found that the direction of the raiders began to turn to the mouth of the lake, and in the direction they were heading, there seemed to be only two tribes, Ebony and Hedong.

In a state of intense uneasiness, the two of them finally came to the outside of the Ebony tribe's village in the last rest before the end of the long day, and saw the huge marauder camp less than five miles from the village.
