Chapter 2: Unknown Empires
After cleaning up the battlefield a little, these primitive people happily prepared to go back.
Su Ziyu also stealthily followed quietly.
The maglev car that the primitive leader was riding in was relatively high-end, and although it looked tattered but could be controlled by voice, he loaded a pile of miscellaneous metal parts into the car, and then sat in with the three men with guns.
It seems that these people are his cronies, and the others with cold weapons can only ride the pack beasts outside.
Su Ziyu followed as he learned their language at a rapid pace.
Of course, it was very easy to control these primitive people with his ability, but he didn't want to startle the snake, especially after seeing the enhancement device implanted in the other party's brain, and Su Ziyu was not sure if this device had any special effect.
Half a day passed like this.
Suziyu mastered their language at an astonishing rate, and from their conversations it became clear that these people were really from primitive tribes.
The man at the head was the chief of the tribe.
But he prefers to be called 'Sir', a title that is clearly reserved for feudal kingdoms.
It's getting dark.
After traveling for nearly a hundred kilometers in a row, a strange and strange tribal gathering place appeared in Su Ziyu's sight.
At a glance.
The first thing he saw was a broken outer shell of a spaceship, looking at the outline of the tail compartment of the spaceship, about fifty meters long and twenty meters wide, the surface was quite badly damaged, many useful parts were dismantled, and now only an empty metal shelf remained. Next to the wreckage was a metal wall with several watchtowers and machine guns, all of which were old, as if they had been repurposed and fitted with scrap from World War II.
The buildings in the tribe are quite chaotic, the most striking is a small three-storey western-style building, which is luxuriously decorated, paved with marble tiles, has a small garden, and has a fountain and statues, like the villas of medieval nobles.
But around this small western-style building, there are a large number of low bungalows and simple tents, and the streets are filthy, and there are many dried and congealed blood stains on the ground.
"The chief is back." After seeing the maglev car, the dark-skinned guard at the door opened the metal gate with a flattering face.
There was a lift in there, and he didn't seem to know how to use it, so he fiddled around with it a little bit.
"Are those slaves alright?"
"Wait for the people of the empire to come!" The chieftain, dressed as a medieval nobleman, poked his head out and asked.
The guard at the gate hurriedly said, "The others are alive." ”
"One died."
The chief nodded in satisfaction, looked at the ground with a frown after passing through the gate, and said, "Send someone to clean up the blood on the ground." ”
"Yes." The guards on the side hurriedly said.
Su Ziyu also quietly entered this primitive tribe at this time, he looked at the environment here curiously, and his eyes fell on a middle-aged woman wearing a bone pendant on her lips who was sewing clothes not far away.
At the middle-aged woman's feet was a damaged robotic arm stained with blood and minced flesh.
In the corner of the wall is a knife.
"Cannibals?" Su Ziyu's brows furrowed slightly.
He saw a small pile of bones, as well as human skulls placed as ornaments.
After discovering that the people outside had returned, the dark-skinned middle-aged woman quickly hid something in the corner, and then led three or four seven or eight-year-old children to meet the group behind, and jumped down from the tall camel beast a man wearing sharp tooth ornaments on his chest.
The whole tribe was distinctly divided, half of them were real primitive people, who lived in simple tents, next to the enclosures where the poultry were kept, and the ground was filthy and filthy, with feces and other filth.
The other half are close to the habits of the Middle Ages, they are more modestly dressed, and they live in brick houses.
However, their skin color is exactly the same, and the outline of their appearance can also be seen to belong to the same race.
Then.
The chief of the tribe took out a small and delicate silver-white communicator, and after saying a few words in a flattering tone, he waved his hand to let the others pull out some iron cages.
The iron cage held a number of prisoners, most of them primitive people of the same race, with dark complexions and thick skulls, but in the last cage were two fair-skinned humans, both male, one of whom had an obvious gunshot wound to the chest, and although it had been treated, it was unable to stand up.
"Put these two rebels over there."
"Others tied up." The chief commanded with a fierce gaze.
Fifteen minutes passed quickly.
When Su Ziyu circled around the tribe, he suddenly felt something in the sky, followed by a swirling air current, and a flying machine like a square cabin slowly descended.
The silvery-white metal gate slowly opened.
The first to come out was a thin old man in a medieval dress and a gentleman's hat, his expression seemed to have a hint of displeasure, he frowned and looked at the dirty ground, then walked down with a disgusted face, looked up at the tribal chief in front of him with disdain, and said, "What about things?" ”
Suziyu's spirituality moved slightly.
His expression was slightly surprised, he looked at the cabin in front of him, and said to himself: "Spiritual energy enhancement LV5? ”
As the shriveled old man stepped down, two soldiers wearing silver-gray exoskeleton power armor soon stepped out behind him.
"Their equipment is much more advanced than in the wasteland." Su Ziyu's gaze fell on the electromagnetic rifle held by the two soldiers.
The tribal chief's face no longer had the rebellious appearance he had at the beginning, but instead he nodded at the old man in front of him, and said with a flattering face: "Lord Steward." ”
"The stuff is over here."
"It took us more than half a month to get it, and a lot of people died."
The shriveled old man, known as the chief manager, looked at the pile of metal parts next to him, and a red light suddenly appeared in his pupils, and a scanning light was visible to the naked eye on these parts, and then he nodded expressionlessly and said, "It's all the waste of some ancient ruins." ”
"But this pseudo-personality AI core has some value."
"Plus these slaves and rebels."
"A total of 1,200 Imperial Contribution Points can be exchanged."
With that, the shriveled old man raised his wrist, and on the back of his hand was a light blue metal bracelet, a small silver-white metal piece floating, and then a faint light appeared, and then a 3D stereoscopic projection appeared in front of his eyes.
"You're just a low-ranking knight of the Empire now."
"That's all you can redeem at the moment."
"See for yourself."
The shriveled old man waved his hand to the soldiers behind him, and they stepped forward to move those things into the cabin, while the other soldier took out a metal collar and shot out more than a dozen electromagnetic metal rings to control the slave in front of him.
The chief looked at the stereoscopic projection in front of him, a look of greed appeared in his eyes, and he carefully flattered, "Lord Steward." ”
"It's too much of a mess."
"The villain doesn't know what to exchange, I don't know if the chief manager has any advice?"
When the shriveled old man heard this, a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. But he replied with a cold face: "It depends on what you want." ”
Speaking of this, he looked at the dirty and messy tribe in front of him with disdain, and said slowly: "If you want to advance the level of civilization, then exchange for scientific and technological materials and construction materials." ”
"The basics of the empire should be enough for your tribe to quickly enter civilization."
"If you want to continue to be a strong dictator."
The old man's fingers moved slightly, and a large list of items immediately appeared on the stereoscopic projection, and he raised his chin slightly and gestured: "These are nano nerve injection training instruments, which contain firearms, fighting, swordsmanship, and other skills, any of which can make you a master of a certain ability." ”
The list of items in front of me quickly swiped by, and various redemption options pages appeared one after another.
"Biomimetic Modification Surgery."
"Exoskeleton power armor."
"Nether Field Shield."
"Electromagnetic rifle."
"AI Intelligent Auxiliary Core (Implantation)."
"Plasma lightsaber."
"FZ-100 shuttle."
"T1 series genetic modification fluid."
The entire list of items is full of everything, from cheap to expensive, containing tens of thousands of different options, and some of the items list even makes Suziyu feel tempted when they see it.
The old man's gaze fell on the back of the other party's head, and after sweeping his gaze, he said slowly: "Your psionic amplifier is still the lowest level. ”
"Seeing that your harvest this time is good, you can consider exchanging it for T1 series genetic modification."
"After completing the first step of the Brain Domain Enhancement, you should be able to add a more advanced psionic energy amplifier."
The chief in front of him hesitated a little when he heard this, he looked at the expensive price of the T1 series of genetic modification, hesitated for a moment and said, "Lord Steward." ”
"I'd better continue with the bionic transformation."
The shriveled old man nodded expressionlessly and said, "Yes." ”
"There's a dormant surgery chamber in there."
Just as the two of them were talking, Su Ziyu had already quietly stealthily entered the cabin aircraft.
The space inside is quite spacious, there are more than a dozen silver-white metal boxes of all sizes on the floor, and the position in the corner of the wall is a silver-gray dormant warehouse, at this time the shriveled old man is walking in with the middle-aged chief, after signaling him to lie in, the old man casually opened one of the metal boxes with his fingerprints, and took out a silver-gray metal bionic arm and a pair of light blue crystal eyes from it.
Tick tick.
The old man set it up on the dormant chamber, and the next second, a needle poked out and injected some kind of liquid into the chief's body.
An infrared scanning ray swept through.
The chief's human figure appeared directly in the projector on the wall, and the old man reached out and tapped his arms and eyes a few times.
Then, a precision scalpel popped out, cutting off the opponent's arm at an astonishing speed, and took down a pair of cloudy dark brown eyes, several silver-white manipulators picked up the metal bionic arm on the side, and then installed and implanted the connecting nerve, the whole process can be said to be done in one go, before and after less than ten minutes, the chief's bionic transformation surgery has been completed in the dormant chamber.
Eventually, the dormancy chamber was filled with some light blue liquid, and after a few minutes, the chief opened his eyes and stood up with a slightly dazed expression.
A faint red glow appeared in his pupils.
Su Ziyu can actually see some flashing data in his pupils, and these bionic eyes seem to have a certain ability to analyze data.
"The renovation has been completed." The shriveled old man suddenly trembled, and then said expressionlessly, "You can go down." ”
The chieftain, who looked a little dazed, was directly carried out by the soldiers on the side.
The cabin vehicle quickly shut down, and then it took off.
Two soldiers in exoskeleton power armor stood in the doorway like robots.
The shriveled old man suddenly let out a painful snort, his whole body gasped violently, and there were some strange changes in the position of his exposed neck and head, only to see that his whole expression seemed to have a trace of hideousness, the provocative blood vessels were expanded and exposed, a face was almost swollen purple, and the position of the temples was agitated.
"Damn Whispering of the Heart! ……”
"Monster!"
"Get out of my head! ……”
The shriveled old man quickly opened a box, took out a silver-white needle and inserted it into his neck, and after the pale red liquid was injected into his body, his expression calmed down a little, and he gasped: "Return to the underground base immediately." ”
The soldiers on the side did not react to this, and still stood in the doorway like robots.
However, there was a flicker of light in the cockpit of the cabin aircraft, and then a cold mechanical voice sounded: "The coordinates of the base have been located." ”
"Heading home."
Call.
The shriveled old man sat on the sofa beside him with a sigh of relief, his symptoms gradually disappeared, and after his heartbeat slowly calmed down, he actually reached out and opened a small cabinet, took out a bottle of wine from it, and slowly poured himself a glass.
The cabin aircraft lifts off and returns.
"What symptoms did he just have? Is it mental pollution? The figure of the Suzi fish was suspended ten centimeters above the ground.
With his psionic enhancement level, he can completely block the other party's perception.
It seemed that they were now preparing to return to the base camp, and Su Ziyu was also a little hesitant at this time, not knowing whether to follow him over and have a look, or directly mentally control the shriveled old man in front of him, to see if he could ask any useful information.
Ultimately.
He decided to wait a minute.
Although his knowledge of the world was limited, there were many things that the shriveled old man had just shown that he was very interested in.
If you can, Suziyu still wants to get it.
By the way, he also needs to explore the details of the empire in the mouths of those aborigines, obviously they already have such advanced technology, but their system seems to be a feudal empire.
