Chapter 11: Garbage Beetles
There is no longer a stop, and now Wang Yuan's top priority is to familiarize himself with the environment and find a place to stay.
By the way, find a way to figure out how to survive these ten days, and in ten days, you have to go to pick up waste, collect some things that can be exchanged, so that you can exchange materials after ten days.
Wang Yuan's steps were very brisk, because Wang Yuan saw the way out of here on the bulletin board.
Maybe for others, all the difficulties depend on luck, but as long as Wang Yuan wants to, he can leave now.
The bulletin board is clearly written!
As long as you unlock the gene lock and become a superpower, you can apply to leave the scavenging planet.
It's just that the superpowers who leave the scavenging planet must enter the federal army and serve a minimum of five years to atone for their sins.
As for whether to leave now, Wang Yuan himself is also struggling, or should he stand here for a while and familiarize himself with the skill panel and this federation.
After all, the information that Wang Yuan knew now only came from the basic information that he had seen on the battleship for a day before.
Wang Yuan walked aimlessly for a distance, the farther away from the exchange site, the more messy garbage there was around, and the lower the temperature.
Scavenging planets are all habitable zone planets that have been exploited and emptied of resources, but because of the Federation's excessive resource exploitation, the ecosystem is basically out of balance, although the Federation has the technology and resources to repair the ecological balance of these planets, but it is thankless, and it is simply used as a place of exile for garbage dumps.
Therefore, the twelve recovery sites on the entire scavenging planet are now the twelve most habitable locations on the entire planet.
Wang Yuan was thinking about finding a place to stay, and suddenly became alert.
After the baptism of those energies in the black hole space, Wang Yuan not only improved his physical fitness, but also inadvertently improved his senses.
Sideways!
Call~
A black shadow next to him instantly rushed past Wang Yuan.
The Shadow is fast.
Wang Yuan was stunned for a moment, and when he fixed his eyes, a small figure was lying on the ground in front of him.
Child?
Wang Yuan was stunned for a while, how could there be children in this kind of place? Aren't the places of exile full of ordinary prisoners sentenced to life imprisonment? Could it be that this child is also sentenced to life imprisonment?!
"Ah, this little guy was preempted by him."
It was an old voice from behind the quilt.
Wang Yuan turned around and saw an old scavenger, dirty, wearing a jacket full of patches.
"You guys, what are you doing?" Wang Yuan was stunned for a moment, looked at the child who was still lying on the ground, and then looked at the old man scavenger behind him, and opened his mouth curiously.
"Young man, it's new, today seems to be the day when the federal transport ship came, and before you know it, another year has passed." The old man looked at Wang Yuan, his spirit was completely different from that of the scavengers here, and his body and face were all clean.
"Well, just arrived." Wang Yuan nodded.
It seems that this old man seems to be quite good at talking.
At this time, the child on the ground got up, looked at Wang Yuan and the old man scavenger nervously, and retreated vigilantly.
The whole body was dirty, the hair was sticky together, and the face was also black, but a pair of eyes were indeed pure that Wang Yuan had never seen before.
Wang Yuan noticed that the child was clutching the black beetle the size of a palm all the time in his hand,
Could it be that this kid just threw himself on the ground just to catch this bug?
The child nervously stepped back some distance, then turned and ran out quickly.
"Alas, people are old and kind-hearted, and if they are in the past, I have to rob her." The old man shook his head and sat directly on the big stone beside him.
Then the old man looked at Wang Yuan: "Look at you were thrown here at a young age, what did you do?" ”
Wang Yuan shook his head: "I didn't commit any crimes, but I was thrown over in a daze." ”
"Tsk... If you offend people, you really don't look like a wicked person, then you won't be happy. The old man looked Wang Yuan up and down.
"Why?" Wang Yuan was stunned and asked.
The old man smacked his lips: "This place, good people can't live." ”
"Huh? Aren't you a good person? Wang Yuan looked at the old man who spoke amiably and said.
"Me? Good? The old man was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.
"Haha... In my life, I have nothing to do with good people. The old man smiled and said, "If I were a good person, I would not have lived in this place for forty years, and the good man would have died a long time ago." ”
"Didn't you just rob that kid's things?" Wang Yuan said.
The old man shook his head: "So I said that I am older, and my heart is not so ruthless, in fact, I have already seen the garbage beetle, and I also saw that the little guy has been lurking in the garbage hole, waiting for those bugs to approach, but you come from here, and if you get closer, you should scare the bug away, and the little guy has to take the risk." ”
Wang Yuan was stunned for a moment, like this, he was thinking about the foothold, but he really didn't notice it.
"By the way, what are you doing with that beetle?" Wang Yuan thought about the big black beetle in the child's hand, looked at the old man and asked curiously.
"Eat." The old man replied simply and clearly.
Wang Yuan was stunned: "Can that thing be eaten?" ”
Thinking about the appearance of that big insect, Wang Yuan didn't feel like he could eat it.
"It's quite delicious, the carapace behind them, there is a piece of tender meat peeled off, the nutritional value and taste are very good, but the other parts are toxic." The old man seemed to be savoring the taste, and smacked his lips.
After a pause, the old man continued, "The garbage beetle is one of the few things left on the planet that can be eaten. ”
Wang Yuan looked at the sky-high light not far away, where the recovery site was.
"Huh... Looking at Wang Yuan's gaze, the old man smiled: "I know what you're thinking, don't think about the materials that can be exchanged at that recycling site, believe that the items I can recycle are not as easy to collect as you think." ”
"And... The old man looked away: "Even if you collect it, it may not be yours, this is not a good place." ”
"Will someone rob it?" What Wang Yuan asked, in fact, Wang Yuan already had the answer in his heart, where a group of criminals gathered, it was strange how friendly they could be.
"The things at the exchange site are basically controlled by the people of the three major forces, and the free scavengers can only eat some leftovers, and you have to hand over half of them." The old man looked at the recovery site in the distance.
"Are there many free pickers?" Wang Yuan asked curiously.
"Hehe... There are a lot of free scavengers, half and half. The old man said.
"Then why don't you join the Big Three?" Wang Yuan asked curiously.
"Hey, hey..." The old man suddenly smiled strangely and looked at Wang Yuan with strange eyes.
Wang Yuan was uncomfortable by the old man's strange gaze.
Just when Wang Yuan couldn't help but speak.
The old man opened his mouth and said: "Believe it or not, those who came from the same batch as you, and now join the three major forces, will run out more than half of them in less than two days." ”
"Why?" Wang Yuan was surprised.
