Chapter 27 28: Rites of Passage
Ning Chen pressed his temples with a headache. "Excuse me, where is the underground manhole cover? I want to go into the sewers. ”
The aborigines who were stopped by Ning Chen glanced at her sneeringly, "How do I know!" After that, the man rolled his eyes, ignored Ning Chen, and walked away with his friend on his shoulder.
Ning Chen frowned, she was busy with the road before, and she was also tired, so she sat on the ground very unattractively.
Skynet.
"Hey, this base is weird."
"Yes, even if they are here for the competition, but the contestants are also to help their life star, the natives are the natives, and they don't know how to be grateful at all, so they are so xenophobic."
"Shut up upstairs if you don't know the truth, 51741 has held many similar competitions over the years, in fact, in order to save military power, these competitions can be regarded as a joint project for the military and civilians to clear the star beasts, but among those contestants before this, there have been some scum, and they have done a lot of bad things to the aborigines here."
"When the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds, and the reason why these aborigines are hostile to the contestants is also because the previous contestants have left a lot of bad impressions on them."
"I'm curious about how long 51741 has been like this, and it can be seen from the ruins where the scrap battalion commander was before, those ruins seem to be more than a hundred years old."
"51741, the aborigines here are not rich, but they are very stable. It's just that since two hundred years ago, the Star Beast invaded, and the empire cleaned up batch after batch of Star Beast, but it is very strange that every time a batch is cleaned up, another batch always emerges, especially in recent years, the border war has become more and more severe. ”
"The Empire can't keep wasting its forces on this inferior life star, right? Therefore, there are many kinds of competitions, so that major colleges and universities, as well as civilian contestants, can help the military clean up these star beasts. ”
Ning Chen patiently observed that the aborigines in the base were very indifferent to outsiders, even cold, but on the whole, among the aborigines themselves, they were fierce and friendly and mutually helpful.
For example, if an old man falls, as long as the people nearby see it, one of them will stretch out a hand to help the old man up, and some are more enthusiastic and send the old man home directly on his back.
Of course, there are some children, they seem to be fatherless and motherless orphans, but the aborigines do not discriminate against these orphans, they are very kind, and they have food, as long as they have their own families, they are all willing to take it out to help these orphans.
Therefore, orphans are considered to have grown up eating hundreds of meals?
Ning Chen also saw a lot of disabled people with missing arms and legs, these disabled people were cheerful and bold, overall, the whole base was positive, everyone was like a family, they were hostile to only outsiders like themselves, and they were quite united inside.
Ning Chen took another turn in the base and asked a few times, all of them were frustrated without exception, it seemed that he could not find the entrance to the sewer on his own.
They were all deprived of space buttons before entering the teleportation channel, mechas, knives, guns, robots, even food, water, and so on.
I don't know who the blue dot under the base is, but it's been a whole day since the competition, and she has to get the person out as soon as possible, otherwise the person below will have no water or food, and I'm afraid he won't last long.
Ning Chen's thinking is very clear and orderly. It seems that you have to gain the goodwill of the aborigines in order to get their help?
Okay, but what is needed to dispel the stubborn hostility of Base Eight?
