To be honest, after being locked in the cage, Feng Bujue felt a lot more at ease.
If he was on Earth, he would have been handcuffed and put on a prison wagon. This was the difference between a prisoner in custody and a fugitive … A prisoner in custody was equivalent to being "under control". As long as he did not resist violently, the law enforcement officers had to ensure his safety. However, it was different for a fugitive. Any movement could lead to death.
At this point, Feng Bujue dared to communicate with the other party more boldly. He immediately shouted, "Hey! Where am I? What planet was this? Are you talking about the Shrugged Star? "
The translation function of the system would solve any language problems. Regardless of whether the players spoke classical Chinese, idioms, or dialect slang, the system would be able to accurately convey the meaning to others. There was no need to worry about the words not conveying the meaning.
"You have no right to ask questions, intruder," Jiejiejie replied. "If you have anything to say, say it to the person interrogating you."
"I'm Jie Jie Jie. Capture Plan Three has been completed. Team One requests to return to base. Over." Jie Jie Jie reported the situation through the communicator.
"Permission granted. Over." This time, the reply came very quickly.
Thus, Jiejiejie led the eleven mechas of the first squad back to their military base.
Feng Bujue stood on the robot's palm and waited silently.
Although he didn't have to run anymore, he didn't feel good at all. Because the robot's palm was made of metal and had long been scorched by the sun, the temperature in the "palm cage" was no lower than the temperature outside. The red sunlight shone through the gaps and roasted Brother Jue, who was wearing a long suit. He really felt like he was playing teppanyaki.
"Hmm … He called himself a second lieutenant in the army, which means that I didn't meet the police, but the military." Feng Bujue could only think to distract himself. "It's too far-fetched to say that I stole military secrets … This is a vast desert, what secrets could there be …" He exhaled a breath of hot air. "Oh … weapon testing grounds … That makes sense."
"Ah … It's getting hotter and hotter …" Brother Jue pulled on his collar, and there was smoke coming out of it. "Look at these people wearing thick uniforms and helmets. They must have invented something like 'air conditioner' in their technology …" He wiped away the droplets of sweat that flowed from his forehead to his eyes. "What if these people are born with a natural heat resistance, and the machines on this planet are also heat-resistant … then I will be in deep trouble."
Thinking of this, he suddenly thought of something. "That's right … Although I can't take off my clothes, what if the people on this planet want to take off my clothes? For example, they want to dissect me for research purposes.
Unfortunately … he was still thinking too much. With the existence of the System, this kind of thing would definitely not happen …
…
About ten minutes later, a desert fortress appeared in Brother Jue's vision.
It was a very magnificent building with a height of more than 50 meters. The shape of the building could be clearly described in one sentence — it was a huge "M".
"Where should I start …" Feng Bujue threw a [Wild Ball Punch] into the air and muttered softly, "I'm afraid it's impossible to avoid a famous fast food brand …"
"Team One has returned. Requesting to enter the base. Over." Jie Jie Jie used the communicator to contact the base again.
"Entrance number three is ready. Please enter from there. Over."
"Understood." Jie Jie Jie Jie replied.
Not long after, the eleven mechas majestically rushed towards the pillar on the right side of "M".
When they arrived in front of the fortress, the mechas of Squad One all stopped. Accompanied by the loud rumbling of machinery, a large door in front of them slowly opened.
This door was obviously designed for large vehicles to pass through. After it opened, there was a sloping asphalt runway that led underground. Led by Jie Jie Jie, the mechas of Squad One entered in a single file. After that, the door behind them closed again. The red sunlight was finally blocked out and was replaced by white strips of light on both sides of the runway.
"Phew …" Feng Bujue let out a long sigh of relief. "So that's how it is … where the sun doesn't reach, even without air conditioning, the temperature will be much lower."
After walking for a while, they reached the end of the runway. It was a semi-circular space that was as big as three football fields. On the "arc" of this semi-circular space, there were six tunnel entrances of different shapes that extended into six runways. On the other side of the straight line, there were four giant mechanical doors that were tens of meters tall.
The four doors were marked with four strange symbols. When Brother Jue's gaze landed on the symbols, the corresponding text appeared in the system's translation. In fact, the four symbols were equivalent to the Arabic numerals "1, 2, 3, 4".
"Oh … these words look interesting." Feng Bujue did not seem to understand his situation at all. He was still interested in studying the alien characters to see if there were any rules to follow. It was as if he wanted to learn another foreign language here.
"Second Lieutenant Jie Jie Jie Jie and all members of Squad One are here to report!"
The officer was wearing a green uniform and a strange pointed hat. He raised three fingers on his right hand (there were only three fingers in total) and patted his forehead. "Well done, Second Lieutenant. Leave the rest to me."
"Yes, sir." Jie Jie Jie Jie mimicked the officer's action. It looked like this gesture was equivalent to the "salute" of the Star Troopers.
After responding, Jie Jie Jie Jie sat back in the pilot's seat and pressed a few buttons on the control panel. Then, the "palm cage" around Feng Bujue transformed and expanded.
In the next second, four armed Star Troopers surrounded Brother Jue.
At this moment, Feng Bujue could clearly see the appearance of these Star Troopers. When he looked at them up close, he could see that other than the height of their shoulders, their faces were also very different from humans …
The Star Troopers' faces were not flat like humans' faces. Instead, they were like fish, narrow in the middle and wide on both sides. They had two eyes that were bulging high on both sides of their cheeks. At first glance, it was obvious that they were creatures with a very wide field of vision … if they were not blocked by their own shoulders.
Their noses (which looked like noses) did not have an obvious nasal bridge. There were about a dozen extremely small nostrils distributed at the front of their narrow faces. The shape was a bit like the small holes on a telephone receiver.
Their mouths were not much different from humans, but because of the shape of their faces, their mouths appeared to be wider.
Feng Bujue looked for a while and did not find any ear-like organs on the Star Troopers' heads. He pondered … The Star Troopers' hearing organs were likely to be at the back of the head or in other parts of the body. Because the two sides of the head were covered by the shoulders, from an evolutionary point of view, the ears should not be on the two sides of the head.
"Earthling, you can understand our language, right?" The officer said.
Feng Bujue stood in place and did not move. He calmly replied, "Yes." After he finished looking at the appearance of these aliens, he began to quietly observe their weapons.
The four soldiers around him were all holding metal objects and posing as if they were ready to shoot at any time. The guns in the hands of these Star Troopers were very similar to the same products on Earth, but the shape was still slightly different.
The eyes, the angle between the neck and shoulders, the length of the arms, and the number of fingers of the Shrugged Shoulder Aliens were different from humans. These factors affected the shooting habits of the species when using weapons, which would also affect the shape of the guns.
"Oh? You actually know how to speak our language? "The officer was slightly surprised as he read.
"I'm sorry, sir. He did say a few words to us after he was arrested, but I didn't report it," Jejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejejeje
"It's alright, Second Lieutenant." The officer looked up and replied. Then, he turned to Brother Jue and said, "Looks like … you're a veteran spy … Earthling."
Feng Bujue had watched a lot of spy movies. He immediately made a very sharp reaction: "Hmph …" First, it was a cold snort, then a contemptuous look. "May I ask what your military rank is?"
"Hmm?" The officer sneered. "I am a colonel of the Shrugged Star Army. I am Huo Huo." He paused for a moment. "I wonder... who are you, sir?"
"Ha!" Feng Bujue laughed. His expression was stern. "Let your superior talk to me!"
Huo Huo Huo paced back and forth. He looked up and down at Brother Jue. "Hey, you're a prisoner …" He spat on the ground (the saliva of the Shrugged Star Troopers was crystal clear). "You're quite arrogant, aren't you?"
"Hmph …" Feng Bujue raised his head but didn't say anything. His subtext was: I have nothing to say to someone of your level.
"Good … Stubborn to the end …" Huo Huo Huo stared at Brother Jue and nodded slightly. "You've got guts." He waved at the soldiers. "Take him to the interrogation room."
Before he finished, the soldier standing behind Brother Jue pushed him and shouted, "Let's go!"
"What are you pushing me for!" Feng Bujue suddenly flipped out and shouted.
This sudden, almost hysterical roar scared the soldier.
"I can walk on my own." Two seconds later, Feng Bujue added. Then, with his head held high, he swaggered away.
Huo Huo Huo Huo took a deep breath to calm his anger. He adjusted his collar, gave a few orders to the members of the first unit, and then left with the group of soldiers.
…
Perhaps some might be confused. Before Brother Jue was captured, he had been so peaceful, so why would he suddenly become so lawless after he was captured?
This … was the saying, 'Times have changed.'
Earlier, Feng Bujue was extremely lacking in information, so he put on a 'cooperative' attitude. But now that he knew some of the basic settings of the scenario, the situation was very different.
When he first entered the world of the scenario, Feng Bujue knew nothing about the setting of this world. At the time, he didn't dare offend anyone. This was because he was an extreme person. His philosophy was, "If I stepped on a cockroach, and the cockroach happened to be the pet of this world's supreme god, then I would have to burn 500000 Game Coins to teach it a lesson."
But now, Brother Jue had a certain level of contact with the people of the Shrugged Shoulders, and he knew what to do. He was confident that with his combat ability, he could do whatever he wanted in this base.
His basis was simple … because the weapons in the hands of the soldiers and the mechas showed that this was a planet that was heavily technologically-advanced. A race that was technologically-advanced would not have that much physical combat ability. The universe was fair. Either you were technologically advanced, physically strong, or skilled in magic … This was not a choice but a choice of evolution.
If a race could blow up a star with one punch, then why would they research things like pistols and missiles? If a race could use magic to teleport to any corner of the universe, then why would they research spaceships? Technology was to serve its inventor. Without demand, there would be no technology.
Therefore, Feng Bujue could conclude that the combat ability of the people of the Shrugged Shoulders was very limited. Even if they were stronger than normal humans, they would not be that much stronger. If their fists and feet were faster than bullets, then why would they need guns?
…
Screech!
The electronic door of the interrogation room slowly opened, and the next second, Feng Bujue was pushed into the room.
A rustling figure appeared at the door. "Wait here for a while … big shot." Then he scoffed and turned to leave.
A soldier in the corridor then pressed a button on the control panel next to the door. The device made a soft beep, and the electronic door closed.
Inside the interrogation room, Brother Jue was left alone.
"Hmm … this is interesting." Feng Bujue turned around and started to observe the environment.
There were no windows in this room, and there was no obvious ventilation. There was only one door to the outside, and it was the electronic door that had just been closed. The upper half of the wall opposite the door was a large, flat and smooth mirror.
"This is a one-way glass, is it?" Feng Bujue walked to the 'mirror wall' and knocked twice on the surface of the mirror. "This place is becoming more and more like a spy movie from the previous century …" he mumbled. "There are no cameras in the corners of the room …" He walked to the middle of the room, where there was a table and two chairs. They were all made from metal, and they were nailed to the ground so that they could not be moved. "There are no cameras on the table and chairs either …" He sat down and raised his head. "The light comes from the ceiling, and the lamps are not installed inside the room … Hmm … Not bad, this will prevent the criminals from destroying the lighting and using the broken glass as a weapon …"
Brother Jue put his hands behind his head, crossed his legs, and sighed. "Although there are no vents, the air conditioning is very comfortable …"
