Ten minutes later, Lin Fei and seven others got on the truck. (--Website shuhaige.com) Now each of them was assigned a respirator, and the middle-aged man who gave them the respirator said: "Thank God, you guys
A few survived. My name is Hunter, and I am responsible for the management of the mining area. Everyone returns to the base and has a good rest. Unfortunately, your pilot and co-pilot can't be found. I don't know whether they are dead or alive. I hope they
You are so lucky too."
The truck drove for more than an hour and arrived at the base. The so-called base turned out to be a complex of buildings made of reinforced concrete and a large number of heavy metal plates. There were five huge workshops where large machines were stored and used for maintenance, and there were also super
There are 100 single rooms, two canteens, four activity rooms, two medical rooms, and a giant cold storage that can be used to store food. In addition, there are also some warehouses for storing other supplies.
There were originally 73 Dürer employees on planet lv109, plus Lin Fei's 7, which was exactly 80 people.
This was what the man named Hunter told Lin Fei along the way. After arriving at the base, he took Lin Fei and others to take a hot bath, then put on a set of clean clothes, and finally arranged a meal
Quite a sumptuous dinner.
On the table are soft boiled potatoes and beef, green vegetables, and a glass of juice that cannot be named. It tastes very refreshing, a bit like cola.
"You are all engineers hired by the company to maintain large-scale excavation equipment. According to the contract, you have to work on this planet for 531 days. The previous accident was really just an accident. I hope it did not affect your mood. The machines of the No. 4 excavation team
It has been out of service for two weeks. I hope everyone can get back to work as soon as possible after the meal. Is there any problem with seating?" Hunter said while standing in front of the dining table with his hands behind his back.
To be honest, Hunter still has some masculine qualities, but Lin Fei felt that he lacked a masculine spirit, or even said that he lacked something that a human being should have. When he spoke, he always felt like a hypocrite.
"No problem, we'll start working after dinner!" As the captain of the team, Lin Fei naturally took on the job of speaking on behalf of the team. The fat man and others on the side didn't know if they were really hungry.
He actually started to eat a lot, mixing the soft potatoes and beef together with a spoon, and then swallowed it in one bite. Read h-u-n with me*h-u-n--please remember
"Very good, then I'll wait for you guys outside the canteen!" Hunter was about to leave at this time, but the crossbow man who had always been cool asked at this time: "Excuse me, where are the previous maintenance engineers of the base? How many of us are there?
There was no way there was no maintenance engineer here before I came here, right?"
The question that the crossbow man asked was also what Lin Fei wanted to know. Indeed, in this place, it is impossible for Dürer Industrial Company not to hire maintenance engineers to station here, otherwise it would be too unreasonable.
When asked this question, Hunter paused obviously, but soon he showed a smile and said: "The last wave of maintenance engineers' contracts expired and they have left. It is for this reason that we are hired here.
!”
After saying that, Hunter walked out.
Maybe it wasn't meal time, so there were only seven of them, Lin Fei, in the cafeteria. They looked at each other and saw doubts in each other's eyes.
"I bet that Hunter just now was lying!" Baozi said at this time: "There must be something weird in saying the contract expires!"
At this time, Lin Fei noticed that Li Chunan's expression was a little strange. From the moment she entered the base, she looked a little weird. She was always lowering her head in thought, and she didn't even look at the food placed in front of her.
Lin Fei walked over with concern, ready to ask what was going on, but at this moment Li Chunan looked up at Lin Fei, then stood up and walked away. Lin Fei knew that Li Chunan had something to say to him.
"Brother Lin Fei, do you still remember the novel writer we met when we went shooting some time ago?" Li Chunan's first sentence made Lin Fei a little confused.
But Lin Fei still nodded. After all, this incident happened just a few days ago, and Lin Fei still remembered it fresh.
"The novel writer also gave me a copy of his manuscript. You haven't read it, but I read a little bit. It is a science fiction horror novel, based on the classic Alien series, and also refers to a movie that has just been released.
The background and elements of the movie "Prometheus" happen to tell a horror story on a planet called lv109. And so far, the conditions we have experienced on this mission have been mentioned in the novel, such as the dilapidated
The transport ship, as well as the cracks on the transport ship, as well as this base and the guy named Hunter..."
Li Chunan said slowly, her voice was very low, but only Lin Fei could hear it.
Lin Fei was really surprised this time. It was impossible for Li Chunan to lie to him, that is to say, the direction of the current mission world turned out to be the same as that of the novel. No wonder something was wrong with Li Chunan at the beginning on the transport ship, and she could still
The crack in the bulkhead was discovered at once, and the reason turned out to be because she knew the plot well.
But Lin Fei also heard some bad news from Li Chunan's words just now, that is, even Li Chunan only read a very small part of the manuscript, which means that she has not finished reading it, so she naturally does not know the subsequent plot development.
.
But even so, Lin Fei still asked: "Nan Nan, how much of that manuscript have you read? Now slowly recall it, don't miss any details!"
Although Lin Fei didn't know why the mission world appeared based on that manuscript, no matter what, they had to continue the mission.
In fact, neither Lin Fei nor Li Chunan knew that the day after meeting the novelist, the latter got the chance to be published. In other words, this book called "The Origin of Alien" had become
Public reading.
Li Chunan could not recall much, after all, she had only read a few pages.
"In the novel, the entire planet lv109 is very desolate. Except for the 80 people in this base, there are no traces of other human activities. Moreover, there is a little oxygen in the air outside during the day, but at night, the outside is a forbidden area. It's terrifying.
The air will kill a person in a few seconds. In addition, the guy named Hunter is not a human, but a robot, just like the one in the Alien series, whose appearance is completely invisible. Also, before in the base
The maintenance engineers did not leave after their contracts expired, but all disappeared mysteriously. It should be that their excavators dug up something terrible on this planet. I only saw this here. If I had known what I said, I would have lost that manuscript.
Finished reading!" Li Chunan felt very regretful and blamed herself at this time. If she could finish reading the manuscript, she would definitely be able to obtain first-hand information.
Lin Fei reached out and patted her shoulder, indicating that it was okay.
His side didn't understand the plot, and so did the contractors of other teams. At least he wouldn't have any disadvantages. And from the information Li Chunan said, Lin Fei already had some clues about this mission.
That is, the entire mission should take place on this lv109 planet. In other words, the scope is limited, so the possibility that contractors from other teams are also in this base becomes extremely high, because the planet
Other places do not have the conditions for survival.
Maybe, among the 73 staff members in the base now, there are contractors from other teams.
In addition, the mission prompt does not indicate the time when other teams enter, or even whether the other team enters. This means that the contractor will no longer be prompted about other teams entering the mission world. This is the case here, and other teams should
Same thing.
This has advantages and disadvantages, but it is fair to all contractors.
Lin Fei has always felt that human beings are more terrifying than the monsters in the mission world. So the main thing to guard against this time is the contractors of other teams, at least to nip them in the bud, because killing the contractors who are not from this team can be dangerous.
Points are awarded. Then it is particularly important to identify the contractor. If the other party does not use skills or uses special equipment, it can only be detected through combat power. In other words, as long as they meet, you can tell who is the contractor.
The contractor, because the strength of the contractor should be far stronger than the characters in the plot.
This feels a bit like a close fight. Just imagine, suppose that in this cafeteria, there are contractors from another team. Even if they don't fight on the spot, it is absolutely impossible for them to live in peace with each other, and they will even think about each other.
How to kill the opponent. From this point of view, this mission is a test of the contractor's comprehensive ability. After all, if you start killing people here, it will definitely cause interference from plot characters and even other troubles.
Lin Fei didn't intend to hide this information from others, so he and Li Chunan shared it while eating.
"There is only one thing we have to do now, and that is to find out the environment here first. Contractors from other teams may have entered this base. We will split up in a while. Fatty, Xiaokai, Baozi, Xiaolin and
Crossbowman, the five of you are going to repair the machine, and Xiaonan and I are going to explore this base, because only the two of us use the ability of invisibility and stealth." Lin Fei said in a low voice, because the mission assigned them identities, so on how
The knowledge of machine maintenance has also been implanted in their memory, which means that they can really repair the excavators here.
The other people didn't have any objections, because Lin Fei had already considered it quite comprehensively. There were too many unknown things in this mission, so we had to be careful, and this arrangement was flawless.
After everyone finished eating, the seven people divided into two teams. Fatty, Gu Xiaolin, Xiaokai, Baozi and Nunan went to repair the machine.
