Chapter 12 Conjecture about time travel
After leaving the room surrounded by everyone, Qu Xiao realized that outside this door was the small square he had been to last time. A very small musical fountain was placed in the center, surrounded by seven points.
Each has a door panel.
Six of the door panels are connected to the inner bedrooms, and the other one is connected to the external corridor. The other members of the Blood Team usually move around in this area. There are video players and various fitness facilities here.
equipment, it can be regarded as a very good activity center.
Because Qu Xiao had only recently joined the team, he was not well received by other team members at first. According to the information in the memories of the original owner, a member of the previous project's Blood Team had just died in an accident. He is now serving as a replacement.
When a person enters the team, nearly half of the people are not willing to accept him quickly.
Therefore, even though Muyu and Changfeng were in the middle to ease the conflict, Qu Xiao's previous situation was still very embarrassing. Unable to unanimously accept his existence meant that he could not live in the team's activity center and could only live alone in the team.
In a simple temporary dormitory.
However, this situation was finally broken today.
The act of standing up to protect Megure was recognized by everyone in the team.
It was only at this time that Qu Xiao realized how strong Mu Yu's cohesion was for this team. This was not an oppression based on power, but a unity based on true feelings.
The stubborn Mugu always likes to talk about her status as captain, but those who know her understand that this is her unabashed protection of others.
She would never use this identity in the face of profit. Every time she threw it out, she was facing trouble and difficulty.
This is the real captain, the person with the highest authority but the lowest status in the team.
Mugume doesn't like to take credit, but everything she does is seen by the team members.
So when Qu Xiao helped their lovely captain, the team members were willing to abandon all their original prejudices and treat Qu Xiao with a new attitude. This was not only a kind of recognition, but also a reward.
If you give face to the captain, we will give you face.
Everyone thinks very simply, as long as you treat Muyu well, you are a good person.
Qu Xiao officially joined the team this time.
When Lao Guan, Chang Feng, Lone Wolf, and Xiao Lan helped him move the house, Mu Yu took him to get to know the team activity center in detail.
Then Qu Xiao realized that the entertainment benefits of this place were far more than what he had just seen. The ground around the fountain could be turned over, and there were many fully enclosed bookcases hidden underneath, as well as game equipment for electronic entertainment.
"After you complete each mission, the base will put a certain amount of credits into your personal account. You can use these credits to go to the store next to the archives to buy things from the past world. There are many types and the prices are high and low.
If you are free, I can accompany you to see it later."
"The past world?" There was a hint of this concept in Qu Xiao's mind. The original owner of his body seemed to have heard this term before, but it had been so long and the memory was very blurry.
"It's the world before the end of the world." Megure explained, "After the 'Doomsday Incident', wasn't the world outside all destroyed? However, in the store, there are still many things sold in the world before the destruction. There are all kinds of things.
, I sometimes go shopping, it’s quite interesting.”
"Okay, I'll go take a look later." Qu Xiao nodded, and the memory in his mind became clearer. The remaining memory of the original owner did contain information about the "Doomsday Event", but there was very little relevant content.
, basically it stays at the level that Muyu just mentioned.
What Qu Xiao knows now is that the world outside this base has been destroyed, but as for what happened and what the destroyed world looks like, he has no idea, but he is not in a hurry to understand this aspect for the time being.
After all, these things really have no great value to him right now.
"Oh, by the way, you need to get to know this thing."
When he walked to the door, Meyu suddenly stopped in front of a small bar. There was a small clock on it. It was bronze and looked like a metal product.
"This is the symbol of our Blood Team. I got it from the store next to the archives. Although it is not made of bronze, we all like to call it the 'bronze bell'."
"It symbolizes the highest level of alarm for our Blood Team. If you hear its bell, no matter what you are doing, you must come over and assemble immediately. This rule is mainly to prevent accidents among the team members. When the bell rings to count the number of people, I will
You will know immediately who among you is missing."
"Captain, is this... really necessary?"
"Of course!" Megure puffed up his proud chest, "Although the base is usually quite safe, we can't rule out the possibility that someone might want to plot against us, just like the Huang Qi you offended today. If one of you is accidentally killed,
If he is captured, I will be able to know the situation immediately and go to rescue people."
"But... what if someone doesn't happen to be here when someone rings the bell?"
"That can at least gather the remaining people together. We usually count the number of people at six o'clock in the evening. If you don't have anything special to do, try to come back at this time."
"Okay, I understand." Qu Xiao nodded.
"Okay, there's nothing else to introduce. Didn't you want to go to the archives in the afternoon? Although it's a little late now, the door should still be open."
"Then let's go." Qu Xiao squeezed his hands excitedly. He had been here for a day without doing anything serious, which really made him panic.
…
When he arrived at the archives room, it was almost nine o'clock, but the place only closed at midnight, which meant that Qu Xiao still had about five hours to waste.
Upon seeing this, he immediately wandered into the ocean of knowledge. Muyu also had his own things to do, so after entering the archives, the two of them separated for the time being.
The layout of the library in the original world is somewhat similar. There are many shelves in the archives, but these shelves are not filled with a complete range of books, but are instead electronic floppy disks that look like cassettes.
Each floppy disk has an independent label posted on the surface. The labels cover a lot of content, but Qu Xiao searched and found nothing related to agriculture.
To say that this place is still for containment, the contents of the floppy disk are almost all introductions to various containment objects. It is no wonder that this place is open to level three personnel like them. I bet all the information that can be browsed is not very important.
Qu Xiao searched for more than half an hour, but couldn't find what he wanted. There was no other way. In order to avoid wasting time, he simply picked up a few random pictures, then plugged them into the terminal and started browsing.
Then he discovered that there were too many things in these floppy disks.
He didn't know how many such shelters the company called "Gaota Group" had under its name, but just the contents of a floppy disk dazzled Qu Xiao.
He read on with patience, and then realized that browsing like this was not efficient at all. Most of the items in the floppy disk were stored in other bases. Even if the items inside were useful to him, there was nothing he could do about it right now.
to take advantage of.
However, the terminal display interface did not have a screening option, so Qu Xiao had no way to quickly identify which contained objects existed in his current base.
After thinking for a moment, Qu Xiao was helpless and could only go to Muyu on the other side to ask. The latter couldn't help but smile when he learned that he wanted to know the specific situation of all the contained objects in the base.
"You told me earlier, I have that kind of information right here."
"Ah?!" Qu Xiao was shocked. He originally just asked casually with the mentality of giving it a try, but he never thought that a blind cat really encountered a dead mouse!
"Such information is not available in this place. If you want to understand it, you have to sort it out yourself." Megure continued, "I am helping you sort out the latest contained object information. As for the previous version,
, if you are anxious to take a look, you can go to Changfeng to get it."
"Captain, you picked these out slowly yourself?!"
"Yes, what else can we do?" Muyu flipped up her hair, "The process is indeed a bit boring, but it can make you safer when performing tasks. I think it is still worth it."
"Captain..." Qu Xiao suddenly felt guilty. He was filled with guilt for just using someone else's labor for nothing. "How about I help you?"
"No need, I can sort it out by myself very quickly." Muyu said with a smile, "You are not very familiar with the situation in this base now. If we screen it together, the efficiency will not be high."
"Okay." Qu Xiao sighed, "Then I'll go back to find Changfeng first."
"Go ahead, go ahead, just in time to see how they are cleaning up for you." Muyu nodded, "Don't make yourself too tired today. Your body has just recovered, and you still need to rest."
"I got it."
Qu Xiao agreed and left the archives room, but he did not immediately return to the team center, but walked into the nearby store.
Just now Muyu told him that various things would be sold in this place, and a bold idea suddenly flashed through Qu Xiao's mind - since he can travel back and forth, can he also carry items back and forth?
If it is really possible, then at this stage, the role of this store is much greater than information and other spiritual resources!
However, all of this is just Qu Xiao's guess at the moment. The specific feasibility needs to be practiced to know. Qu Xiao is going to buy something casually and then look for opportunities later to give it a try.
After all the hard work, Qu Xiao quickly found what he wanted in the store's automatic vending system.
Chapter completed!
