Chapter 45: The Mystery
It seems to be hearty to watch the kitchen be in full swing, but the food served is simple. Chinese food is steamed buns, pickles, eggs, egg soup, porridge; Western food is bread, ham, eggs, cheese, milk.
Several people sat down at a table with food, and Xu Zige didn't forget to joke Shangguan Sha: "Do you dislike that these foods are not high-tech enough?" I've also seen high-tech food, a jar of slimy stuff, and when you put it in your mouth, it's like glue. Don't say it, that thing really works, you can eat a meal for two or three days without going hungry. ”
Shangguan shuddered: "Lord Leader, can't I be wrong?" I will never dare to make irresponsible remarks about human tradition again. ”
Wang Xiaoshi stuffed something into his mouth without a mouthful, but he was still thinking about what he had just thought of in his mind.
It seems that since the technology of underwater relics has entered human society, some weak and small countries have fallen into an inexplicable state of total decline. In particular, some of the smaller countries in Southeast Asia, with a population of several millions, have almost become empty dead countries, but even those powerful neighbors have no intention of annexing or taking over. For the demise of neighboring countries, Huaxia has always taken a blind attitude, giving the slogan: Our goal is the sea of stars. The implication is that this kind of **** small country is not worth my trouble.
But where have all the people from those small countries gone?
China has not carried out any expansion in recent years, although there are still garrison corps stationed on the border, but many remote areas, and even some small cities in the third and fourth tiers, have long become no man's land. Of course, there is a reason for the sharp decline in population this year, but now that most people are gathered in a few dozen large cities, it seems a little weird.
Also, with the advent of genetic enhancement liquid, the lifespan of some people has been greatly extended, shouldn't the population on the earth be more and more? Why are there fewer and fewer of them?
"Hey, hey, Wang! What do you think, the spoon is about to be gnawed by you! Xu Zige shouted at Wang Xiaoshi, whose eyes were straight.
Wang Xiaoshi woke up suddenly: "A little distracted, it's okay, you eat, you eat." ”
Xu Zige looked at Wang Xiaoshi and sighed: "Ask what is the situation in the world, and make the hero bend his waist and cry!" ”
Seeing the three of them looking at themselves with sympathetic eyes, Wang Xiaoshi smiled bitterly: "I will eat too." ”
The dining world passed quickly, and the microphone in the living area rang: "Please go to the conference room within ten minutes to gather, and 1 point will be deducted for every 1 minute late." ”
The players who were chatting idly in the cafeteria suddenly moved, after all, it was not appropriate to be deducted a few points before they started earning points.
The conference room was empty last night, and today a simple podium and more than a hundred folding chairs have been set up. On the ground next to the podium was a computer terminal, a mess of exposed wiring that signaled its newly installed identity.
Yuan Jun, Zhou Zhou Chong and some female team members were already waiting in the conference room, and the meeting officially began when all the other team members were seated.
The spokesman is still Yuan Jun: "Everyone should have read the "Regulations on the Service of Mecha Soldiers", and I don't need to say more about what the crime is to leak national special secrets. What I need to solemnly state is that what you are going to see next is a national top secret. ”
This strange atmosphere added a bit of depression to the already quiet conference room, and in the midst of everyone's shocked expressions, a projection screen lit up over the podium. A few large words immediately appeared on the screen: Alien Biological Invasion Data - Top Secret.
There was a slight agitation in the conference room, and Wang Xiaoshi's heart jumped suddenly, there were several zergs on the cover of this video material!
Groups of hideous-looking Zerg appeared one after another, including the mantis arm worms, corrosive insects, bullet worms, insect generals, and flying insect beasts that Wang Xiaoshi was familiar with, as well as many seed types of different shapes that Wang Xiaoshi had never seen before.
But the content of the picture Wang Xiaoshi thinks that it has been carefully selected, and the insects in it are powerless in the face of human mechas, and they are wantonly harvested like chopping melons and vegetables, and the real insect tide cannot be so easy to deal with.
The battle screen about the Zerg lasted for about ten minutes, and the screen switched to a three-dimensional star map. A calm baritone began to introduce the location where these zergs were found, and the attack routes along the way, so far dozens of planets with humans have been attacked, and humans have won on most of them.
However, these zergs have a huge space fleet, and it is now basically certain that the ultimate target of the opponent's space fleet is the solar system, and the attack of the planets along the way may just be a casual move, or it may be a test of humanity.
After the video was played, the team members present were silent, and they finally knew what the reason for their enlistment was.
Wang Xiaoshi glanced at Xu Zige beside him with his spare eyes, the other party was not as surprised as others, it seemed that either he had known about it for a long time, or as he himself said, he had never seen anything from the underworld.
However, Conn's face was unprecedentedly solemn, and he occasionally exchanged looks with Otina on the side, perhaps this former temporary civil servant had other considerations.
After the video was played, Yuan Jun returned to the podium: "You see, this is the future enemy of the entire human race, and we will name it the alien zerg." The Interstellar Federation, as well as the various countries, have already formulated a perfect plan against the enemy, and these zergs will surely be wiped out by the head-on attack of humanity. I think you already know the purpose of your trip, which is to become a powerful mecha warrior after a period of training, ready to meet the upcoming Zerg invasion war, and make your contribution to the peace of the earth. ”
Xu Zige whispered to Wang Xiaoshi: "It's okay to ......."
Sure enough, Yuan Jun's words changed: "However, the situation has suddenly changed recently, and the monitoring data shows that one or two Zerg warships have broken away from the main force and begun to rush towards several of our more densely developed star fields. In fact, just the day before yesterday and yesterday, we had dozens of exploited planets attacked at the same time. The warriors of these dozens of development planets are currently fighting the Zerg, and they are waiting for reinforcements to arrive. ”
"So, we're going to skip the first three phases of the training camp and you're all going straight to the actual combat training phase. Those who can pass the assessment in the actual combat stage will be awarded according to merit immediately after the war! Those who cannot pass the assessment...... Just stay in the interstellar forces and do the logistics. ”
I don't know if it's because the fragile image of the Zerg in the video gave the players confidence, such an abrupt news did not bring them unease, and some people even jumped with excitement.
Only Wang Xiaoshi and the others had solemn faces, and Shangguan Sha was originally a member of the eagerness to try, but seeing that all the faces of his companions were difficult to see, they couldn't help but be worried.
Wang Xiaoshi's heart was full of waves: Zerg ...... It's going to be meeting again so soon.
