The huge mutated creature outside the passage has blocked the mouthparts at the exit, and the circles of fangs extending into the throat are clearly visible.
But then a beam of light penetrated the mouthparts blocked at the exit of the passage, and the intense energy even made the entire passage hot.
A bounty hunter wearing an ancient temperature-regulating device silently turned on the cooling function.
Immediately after the beam penetrated the mutated creature's mouthparts, two people wearing guard power armor walked through the gap created by the beam. As they walked, they used the shotgun laser on their hands to blast apart the fangs or other objects that would block the path. Road stuff.
Until the two men's feet touched the metal floor.
Some of the bounty hunters who had participated in the war could recognize the symbols on the power armor of the two guards at a glance, as well as the people wearing them.
It was Gray and Anreda.
The bounty hunters except Yao En rolled and crawled towards Gray, then hid behind his Praetorian Power Armor.
Gray continued to move forward with an expressionless face, passing in front of the frightened Yao En. After walking ten meters forward, he stared at the mutant creature coming towards him and turned on the gravity shield.
The passage was crushed and deformed by the gravity shield, and the mutated creatures were crushed under the gravity.
Gray turned off the gravity shield, turned to look at everyone and asked: "Why are there such big spiders in the bottom nest? I saw that thing outside is as big as a building!"
"It's not surprising that there are...things in ancient ruins and relics."
"We...we even found a female alien in a ruins..."
The bounty hunters were so excited that they almost cried, explaining in a flurry of words.
"Gray." Anreda walked up to Gray and said with a smile, "Welcome to the bottom nest officially."
Gray nodded and suddenly recalled the stories about bounty hunters he had read when he was a child.
There are not only dangers in the bottom nest, but also ancient technological relics or other valuable things.
After seeing it with his own eyes, Gray realized why people in the Lower Nest liked stories about bounty hunters, but not many people were willing to become bounty hunters.
"I advise you not to come next time." Gray warned everyone, then turned around and walked to Yao En to pull him up.
But after getting close to Yao En, Gray felt disgusted. In his eyes, Yao En was a dirty and smelly person.
Although he hated Yao En, Gray still pinched his nose and stretched out his hand to pull Yao En up.
"Are you sent here by God to save us?" Yaoen asked in surprise.
"No, it was your wife who called us here." Gray pushed Yaoen and said, "Go home now and buy some good things to reward your wife, because if she hadn't reported it in time, we wouldn't have been able to get here in time."
"It doesn't matter, in my eyes you are still God's messengers." Yaoen said with a smile.
Gray didn't like Yao En, so he didn't say anything. He just turned around and walked towards the end of the passage.
As he boarded the transport plane to leave, Gray looked down at the giant spider the size of a building below, wondering how much scraps this thing had to eat in its nest to grow like this?
In the passage, when the bounty hunters were preparing to leave, Yao En stood blankly at the exit, looking up at the transport plane in the sky, looking very excited.
Chapter 43 Servant
After being rescued, Yao En received his reward from the captain.
Even though his performance against the mutated spiders just now was very awkward and he never fired at the enemy, as a person who can suppress psykers just by being close to them, he still gets a higher reward than everyone else. .
Forty throne coins.
Just by paddling, Yaoen can earn more than other soldiers' monthly salary.
"Keep in touch." The captain stuffed the throne coin into Yao En's pocket, "I shouldn't talk to you too much, but I advise you not to donate money to the servants, and don't hang out with them, in case you end up in the nest in the future. If you are connected to the Lower Nest, you will most likely be burned to death by the people of the National Religion."
"Okay." Yaoen smiled and nodded.
"Okay, let's go, guys." The captain waved to the others and led them out of the passage together.
……
After returning to New Cato, Yaoen did not go home immediately. He first went to the craftsman to buy a bunch of jewelry for ten throne coins, and then took the remaining money to a tavern in the southern corner of New Cato City.
When Yaoen opened the door excitedly, he saw everyone in the tavern staring at the screen.
A follow-up video of logistics machinery was played on the screen.
Logistics machinery collects everything available on the battlefield, even the corpses of rebel soldiers.
The logistics machine approached an aberrant body calmly. After detecting that it was alive, it slowly stretched out its mechanical arm to kill it, and then absorbed the biological tissue into its body.
This video gives people a strange sense of calm. The logistics machines are unhurried no matter what they do. They calmly collect materials and kill enemies.
Calm, cold...
This video was played repeatedly, but the people present were not impatient at all. They watched it very seriously as if they were studying.
Yaoen carefully walked to the bar of the tavern, put thirty throne coins into the donation box with the word "Server" written on it, and then watched the video carefully with the people here.
After everyone watched the video carefully for two hours, it was turned off. An officer came out from behind the bar and asked everyone: "What have you learned from this, my brothers and sisters?"
This man was wearing a Planetary Defense Force uniform, and the scars on his face proved that he had participated in a very brutal battle.
"We should learn the mechanics of logistics and remain rational and calm at all times. We should not be angry, happy, or sad."
Everyone answered in unison.
This has been a standard question and standard answer for a long time. Everyone present has watched the video of the logistics machinery countless times, and they have also answered the officer's question countless times.
"We are the servants of the legion commander." The officer loudly announced, "Although he has never admitted it, he should be a god."
"I have seen fortresses rise from the ground at the power of his power."
"I've seen him create these machines that would bring us supplies."
"I have also seen him release fire and lightning on the battlefield, killing the rebels rushing like a flood into nothing."
"I am a company commander of the 47th Regiment, and I have witnessed many miracles with my own eyes."
When the officer finished these words coldly and indifferently, the people present did not burst into cheers or applause. They just nodded coldly and tried their best to suppress their excited emotions.
In "Servants", everyone is taught to learn the cold indifference of logistics machinery, to suppress and restrain their emotions.
This is because the officer who founded the Waiters, like some people in the city, believed that Qin Mo was a god, and gods created omnipotent logistics machinery.
These people believe that logistics machines are not only providers of food and fresh water, but also teachers. People should learn from logistics machines. Like them, they are cold and emotionless, and will execute any order unconditionally.
"Share your experience." The officer sat down and ordered everyone.
"I was saved today." Yaoen said excitedly. "When I was in the most critical predicament, two messengers came down from the sky and saved me."
After hearing these words, everyone present cast envious glances at Yaoen.
"Control your emotions." The officer frowned and reminded, and then said: "I understand your mood. When my comrades and I were blocked in a building by the rebels, God and his messengers suddenly appeared. In an instant, It turned the tide of the battle. Even though no one in our regiment sent a signal for help, they still came."
"Sorry, I just joined not long ago..." Yaoen quickly suppressed his excitement and excitement and remained as cold and indifferent as possible.
"It doesn't matter, brother, everyone needs to learn and grow." The officer nodded and did not continue to criticize.
This tolerance and kindness made Yaoen happy, because only when he faced these people here, he would not have to feel inferior in the eyes of others with hatred and disgust.
"We were actually supposed to die." The officer stood up and glanced at everyone indifferently, "The people in Cato City are forgotten as before, while our army is executing a stupid attack plan, we are short of supplies, and we are facing the rebels' Under heavy siege, we should have died.”
“But we were saved by many miracles.”
"In desperate situations, it is the logistics machinery that supplies us with food, weapons and equipment. When we are in trouble, we only need to make an application and the messengers will arrive within three minutes."
"The messengers are all chosen warriors. They wear God's creations and can annihilate large numbers of rebels in an instant. Together with God, they save us all."
After hearing these words, Yao En and everyone else nodded in approval.
At that time Cato was being besieged by rebels who had captured half the city.
After the god and his messenger came to reverse the situation of the war, Yao En followed the god to fight side by side. He thought he would make the god disgusted, but unexpectedly, not only was he not disgusted, but he was encouraged and protected.
Yaoen still remembered that he was fighting on the main road of the city and encountered a rebel tank. He lay on the ground holding his head in fear. Then he heard the sound of tank guns firing, but after the shell hit him, he was stunned. There was no explosion, and it didn't even penetrate the body. It just landed on the body and slid off like a fluffy bug.
The god came, unleashed lightning and shattered the tank, then stretched out his hand: "Get up!"
Although a long time has passed since the Cato Defense War, Yao En still dreams about this scene every night.
"Yaoen, follow me in a moment." The officer interrupted Yaoen's recollection, "You are a lucky man. After I reported all your situation, God said he wanted to see you."
"Really?!" Yaoen was ecstatic.
"Control your emotions."
"Yes, sorry."
Chapter 44 Star God’s Choice
……
late at night.
In the underground cave of the fortress, Qin Mo continued his research.
Through sleepless and tireless research, a prototype of a dimensional teleportation device has been produced, and the next step is experimentation and improvement.
While Qin Mo was preparing for the experiment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Come in."
Grote pushed open the door and brought a man into the room: "Legion Commander, this is the man you want to see."
Upon hearing this, Qin Mo immediately stopped what he was doing and looked at the man.
He knew this man's name was Yao En.
An officer reported not long ago that he received a report from a civilian that a man named Yao En was a rebel hiding in the city.
As for the reason... because Yaoen makes everyone who sees him feel disgusted. People think that this is someone secretly reminding them to help them find the heresy hidden among the crowd.
After hearing about Yao En from the officer, Qin Mo immediately ordered him to bring him over.
Now Yao En is here.
"I remember you." Qin Mo suddenly remembered something, "During the defense battle of Cato City, were you among the people who fought side by side with me on the main road?"
"Yes!" Yaoen was so excited that he went crazy. He didn't expect that God would remember such a little person like him.
And just like before, God didn't show any disgust.
Qin Mo moved a chair and motioned for Yaoen to sit down, then waved to Grote: "You go out first."
