After a moment of silence, Atlas opened his mouth and changed the subject. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Brother Captain, those camouflaged probes have been investigating on the ground for several days, do you want to see the report they sent back?"

"Oh?" Zhou Xin, who originally felt that the previous battle was boring, suddenly became interested, "Okay, then take a look." Did all the probes land safely? Where is the landing site? He had been watching the probe for a long time when it was first launched, but a series of messages later made him almost forget about it.

"Hey, hey." The little girl smirked, "Of course there is no problem with the things made by others, all three probes have landed safely, and the landing site must be the northern continent that we haven't explored before." ”

"Very well done." At the same time as Zhou Xin praised him, the picture on the screen turned into a topographic map that Zhou Xin had not seen before. All of the land that appears on this map is land, and it appears that the probe has landed in the interior of the northern continent. According to the scale marked by Atlas, Zhou Xin estimated that this area occupies about 10,000 square kilometers, almost the size of a small country.

From the panorama of the topographic map, the area is covered with quite dense vegetation and looks somewhat lush. Seeing this situation, Zhou Xin suddenly felt a little surprised, originally he thought that this continent would be like the southern continent full of garbage and sewage, but he didn't expect to see this kind of scene full of vitality. However, Zhou Xin noticed that a few other colors could occasionally be seen in a large patch of green, as if they were scars. At first, Zhou Xin was a little unimpressed, after all, he also knew that it was impossible for all places on the surface to be covered by plants. However, when the camera zoomed in on the biggest "scar", everyone was surprised to find that the place was not a place suitable for plants to grow, but a large densely populated area, and it was only because the camera was far away that they didn't see the neatly arranged buildings on the ground.

Looking closely, Zhou Xin found that the layout of the buildings on the ground was a little strange, not like ordinary cities, the shape was either boxy or irregular polygons. The main part of it in the middle is an almost standard perfect circle, and if you look closely, you will find several concentric rings of different widths and different colors. Next to the main structure are several missing circles, where concentric rings can also be seen.

As the lens continues to zoom in, the structure of this concentric ring becomes more and more apparent. After a while, everyone saw that part of the ring structure began to slowly turn into a circular road, and between the two roads were a series of high-rise buildings. Of course, this is only the general structure of the city, and the detailed structure is more complex, with countless roads connecting the inner and outer rings, and complex paths intertwined between the buildings, which can't help but remind Zhou Xin of spider webs.

When only this densely populated area was left on the entire big screen, Zhou Xin couldn't help but say to himself: "Yes, this city looks a little interesting." ”

"Well, it looks much more pleasing to the eye than the town I've seen before." Spred nodded as well.

The screen continued to zoom in, and after a while, only a small piece of building and a small section of road remained. Judging by the brightness of the picture, Zhou Xin speculated that the current time should be noon in this area, but even at this time, the road in the lens was very deserted, and after observing for nearly ten minutes, he only saw a strange-looking car driving past.

"Although the shape is very different, I am afraid that the lives of the residents should be similar." Seeing the deserted streets, Zhou Xin thought of the situation in the previous town.

"It's too early to draw conclusions, maybe it's time for them to rest." Spred said optimistically.

As the probe continues to land, its height has approached the height of a building on the ground. At first glance, Zhou Xin was still a little surprised, because if the road was the standard, the height of these buildings was generally only more than a hundred meters, and at best there were only thirty or forty floors, which was much shorter than the buildings on the earth today, let alone compared to the previous town.

It wasn't until the probe got closer to the road that he discovered the mystery. It turns out that the road shown in the shot is not paved directly on the ground, but erected in mid-air. Through the seam between the building and the road, Zhou Xin saw the light coming from the floor below. At this time, he finally remembered Aina's previous introduction, "So this is their three-dimensional transportation?" ”

"If the rest of the city were like this, it would be very large." Dart couldn't help but exclaim.

Zhou Xin nodded, and then continued: "Atlas, this should be the picture taken by the probe when it just landed. What did you find in these days of investigation? Pick up the key points. ”

The little girl nodded, and then began to briefly introduce the results of the survey in the past few days, "Actually, the life of the inhabitants of this city is almost no different from the small town we investigated before, going to work early in the morning and working very late at night. The slight difference is that their material life will be slightly richer, and they can occasionally be seen organizing some entertainment activities when they get off work, but these entertainment activities are a little boring. Speaking of this, she pouted, "The inhabitants of this city, their work is not as hidden as the inhabitants of the previous town, most of them are in the satellite cities around the city, that is, those small semicircles around it, and only some of them work in the ground factories far away from the city. In addition to these, people also saw a group of eccentric people at the bottom. ”

"Eccentric?" Zhou Xin asked strangely.

The picture on the screen dimmed suddenly, and Zhou Xin saw that what appeared in the picture was a very ordinary road, which looked a little narrow, and the vertical outer walls of the building could be seen on both sides, it seemed that this road should be the path of the building. Along the wall, the camera continues to move upward, but what everyone sees next is not the familiar sky, but endless darkness, with only a few rays of light passing through the barrier to reach here, looking like stars in the night sky. Other than that, the only thing that illuminates the area is the rows of lights hanging on the exterior walls, but they are still much dimmer compared to the actual daytime.

With just one glance at the sky, the probe's lens returned to the ground. At this time, Zhou Xin noticed that at the base of the wall of the building, there were piles of strange things arranged in a messy manner. Due to the dim lighting, it was not clear what the pile was at this distance.

Then, the probe moved slightly closer to the wall, and the pile of things finally appeared clearly in front of everyone's eyes. At first glance, Zhou Xin thought it was a garbage heap, but after thinking about it, he thought it was unlikely, and after looking at it carefully, he found that the appearance of the thing looked like a tarpaulin. Immediately, he felt a little strange, how could such a thing appear here, and the tarpaulins were still messy, which was in stark contrast to the clean and smooth façade of the building next to it.

After a few seconds, Zhou Xin's doubts were answered, and a bunch of things suddenly shook slightly. Then, the bottom of the tarpaulin was lifted, and out of it came an unkempt person, and Zhou Xin couldn't even see the face of this person.

With the previous experience, as soon as he saw that person, Zhou Xin immediately recalled, it should be the beggar that Aina said, it is hard to imagine that they actually live in this kind of shed made of simple tarpaulin. At the same time, looking at the endless sheds lined up along the wall, Zhou Xin felt a little surprised.

"Are there all these beggars living in so many sheds?" Zhou Xin asked in surprise.

"Mostly." Atlas replied, "There are a few sheds that are empty. ”

"How can there be so many beggars in a city like this?" Zhou Xin said incomprehensibly, "Is there no one to take care of it?" ”

"Anyway, these are the sheds."

"You mean, these sheds were built by the government?" Looking at the pile of things that had been built up haphazardly, Spred looked incredulous.

"yes, just a few hours ago, a lot of people came here and built a bunch of new sheds. At the same time, some people brought them a little food every day, but it was really just a little bit, and they could barely sustain themselves. ”

"With so much labor, why doesn't their government centralize them and distribute jobs?" Dart asked, confused.

"I don't know." The little girl shook her head, "And there is another strange place for these people, except for eating and drinking, they almost never go out of the shed where they live, and it is not easy for our probe to go in directly to investigate." ”

As he spoke, the man walked a few steps to the middle of the road, and then unbuttoned his pants like that. Of course, Zhou Xin and the others have no interest in paying attention to how an alien goes to the toilet. However, just as he was walking, Zhou Xin still found something abnormal, that is, the person's walking posture was very abnormal, and he looked a little limped.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhou Xin suddenly had an idea, and he confirmed to Atlas uncertainly: "Have you paid attention to this place in the past few days?" Are all people here disabled? ”

"Disabled?" The little girl suddenly showed a suddenly realized expression, "It's true, at least the people who people see are more or less disabled, and some people don't even have their feet." ”

After hearing Atlas's answer, Zhou Xin and Spred obviously understood something, and they sighed slightly at the same time, only Dart was still scratching his head in confusion.

At this moment, several cars suddenly appeared on the screen, and it is worth mentioning that Kazlan's vehicle looked more like a horizontal oil drum, directly relying on rolling forward, and the circular planes on both sides were the doors.

On the screen, the cars stopped in the middle of the road not long after they appeared. After a while, the door opened, and then a steady stream of people slowly stepped out of the car, each of which turned around and left after dropping a dozen people.

When they got out of the car, Zhou Xin found that all of these people were disabled, most of them had physical disabilities, and one or two people had eye problems and needed to rely on the support of others to get down. All of them were dressed in shabby clothes, and without any one to lead them, the new group of people made their way down the road for some distance before entering the row of sheds at the very end. Looking at their movements, Zhou Xin already knew what the fate of these people would be, maybe these people themselves already knew, but throughout the whole process, they were expressionless, and they didn't even show a trace of fear, as if they had accepted their fate.

"These people—?" Seeing the behavior of this group of people, Dart also seemed to understand what the hell was here.

"Sure enough." Zhou Xin sighed deeply, "I didn't expect them to treat these disabled people like this." ”

"Do you just throw away those who don't work?" Spred's tone was a little heavy, "I wonder how they would allow beggars to exist in such a civilization." Unexpectedly, the beggar was actually disabled. ”

"Is there a way to help them?" Seeing so many Mu Ran's expressions, Zhou Xin looked a little unbearable.

"If we want to help them, we will definitely have to show up in front of these two civilizations." Spred continued, "Besides, there must be more than just such beggars on this planet, can you save them?" ”

"Alas—" Zhou Xin also knew that he was a little whimsical, he sighed again, and then fell silent.

By this time, the whole street had returned to calm, and there was no one on the screen. All that could be seen was the dim light on the walls and the row of sheds built along the base of the walls, when a gust of wind blew and the tarpaulins rattled. Looking at the picture on the screen, Zhou Xin sat without saying a word for a long time.

Seeing the sad expression on Zhou Xin's face, Spred couldn't help but speak: "If you want to open up, we can't save everyone." ”

"I understand." Zhou Xin said slowly, "It's just that seeing what happened to them, I can't control my emotions a little, as a high-level intelligent life, they actually did the same behavior as when the beast survived in the wild, which is really hard for me to accept." Don't worry, I'm fine. After saying this, he couldn't bear to see the picture on the screen anymore, so Zhou Xin motioned for Atlas to change his perspective......
