Chapter 490: Red-Clad Woman
After parting with the red-clad woman, Ye Nan settled down in a hotel.
Carrying the money taken from the lewd man, Ye Nan finally didn't have to worry about being caught by the police because he had no money, although he had preferential treatment.
Lying on the bed, looking at the Federation coins in his hand, Ye Nan suddenly had a sense of déjà vu. The so-called Federation coins were similar to the US dollars on Earth before the apocalypse, the only difference being that the portrait on it was not the same, and other things like patterns were exactly the same.
"But thinking about it, it's inherited from Earth after all. Using the US dollar as currency seems to be nothing." Ye Nan murmured.
Whether it is Earth 1, Earth 2, or Earth 3, its essence is inherited from Earth 0. Perhaps there are changes, but the general background is the same.
"But what should I do now?" Ye Nan lay on the bed, starting to think about what he should do. Although he planned to act according to the movie plot, he hadn't found the opportunity yet: things related to the plot of the movie "Starship Troopers".
"Forget it, let's contact Ilis." Ye Nan immediately connected his mind with Ilis.
"Ilis, how is your situation now?"
"Those people are arguing." Ilis's voice was transmitted through Ye Nan's mind.
Mind power is not any kind of electromagnetic wave, nor is it anything like quantum. It is a formless and qualityless existence, a power that even various equipment cannot detect. So whether it is Ilis or Ye Nan, they are not afraid of their connection being detected.
"Arguing? Why are they arguing?" Ye Nan asked. The councilors of the Human Federation should have no reason to argue. After all, the intelligent brain of an ancient civilization has great value. They couldn't just throw it away.
"Some people want to sell me, others want to use me in society, and then the two groups of people are arguing in the meeting, and even started fighting." Ilis's voice was full of schadenfreude. "You don't know how fiercely they fought. One of the councilors who wanted to sell me had his face scratched by another councilor."
"I really can't imagine that these councilors actually fought in front of the camera."
"Very normal." Ye Nan was not surprised. "Isn't it just hype? Very normal."
Fighting in the meeting, these two councilors will definitely be on the headlines the next day. As long as there is a passable reason, his popularity will increase, which is very helpful for competing for the next councilor leader.
"Normal? On Earth, I didn't see such councilors." Ilis frowned, searching her memory from her data, but searched for a long time and didn't find any councilors who fought in the meeting.
"Uh, it's Taiwan." Ye Nan wiped the sweat that didn't exist, indicating that the weather was very hot.
"I don't understand Taiwan, but they are still arguing until now." Ilis said: "Many people fought for my stay, and I have seen someone's head broken."
"Don't worry." Ye Nan waved his hand. "They are just hyping, they won't send you out at all."
Although selling Ilis might sell for a good price, this cannot improve the overall technology level of the Human Federation. But Ilis is different. With her, she can lead the entire civilization to promote. The endless inventions are enough to make the Human Federation obtain infinite benefits in the future. This is the secret Ye Nan told Peters.
Compared with short-term small benefits and long-term far-reaching benefits, anyone can distinguish clearly. Without the pressure of external forces, they will definitely choose to keep Ilis. This is unquestionable. What they are doing now is just a political show.
But to be honest, Ye Nan envied this Human Federation because on Earth before the apocalypse, no one would make such a political show. Because once they obtained any epoch-making technology, they would hide it and wouldn't put it on the table at all.
The Tunguska explosion is like this, and Skynet is also like this.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
The door suddenly rang, interrupting the conversation between Ye Nan and Ilis. He got out of bed, put on slippers, walked to the door, opened the door, and after seeing the person in front of him, his expression was stunned. "Why are you here?"
Standing outside the door was the red-clad woman.
"Why, can't I?" The red-clad woman glared at Ye Nan and walked straight in, her face still remaining a trace of embarrassment.
"How do you know I have a key?" Click, the red-clad woman opened the door and walked in from the outside.
"You took the key from me and wanted to see me make a fool of myself. Do you think I wouldn't know your little thoughts?" Ye Nan said. In reality, if it weren't for some reasons that Ye Nan didn't want to expose her, he would have stopped her long ago.
"Since that's the case, why can you still keep calm?" The red-clad woman put the key on her finger and kept shaking it. "Do you know that if there is no key, you wouldn't be able to go out today?"
"Are you saying you pulled out the phone line?" Ye Nan asked a question that didn't answer the question.
All of a sudden, the red-clad woman became proud. "You made a call."
"No." Ye Nan shook his head.
"Then how do you know?" Now, the red-clad woman was surprised. "Oh, I understand, are you lying?"
The red-clad woman's voice was full of thick suspicion. Although the contact wasn't long, she knew Ye Nan's character a little bit. She knew Ye Nan wouldn't lie on this issue. In reality, there was no need to lie.
"I just know. By the way, you should go to class today. How about taking me to play?" Ye Nan's face was full of curiosity.
The school where the red-clad woman is located is an affiliated high school of the Starship University. The whole school is not big or small, but some sports facilities and laboratories are all available, and it is not inferior to the university on Earth before the apocalypse.
"We seem to be a bit early."
Ye Nan walked into the classroom, looked at the empty classroom, and said, "What time do you usually have class?"
"Nine o'clock, but generally speaking, there should be someone at this time, unless today is……." The red-clad woman suddenly pulled Ye Nan out of the classroom. She walked through the corridor and came to a laboratory door that was larger than the classroom.
"Sure enough." Looking through the window, one could see many people inside uncovering white cloths, and under the white cloths were stinky bugs.
"It looks like they haven't started yet." The red-clad woman pulled Ye Nan into the laboratory and went straight to a man and a woman. "Rick, Kaman, why are you so early today."
"Mara, you came just in time, help me quickly." Kaman saw the red-clad woman coming and immediately pulled her to her front. "This bug is very disgusting. You help me finish today's experiment."
"Hey, who is this." Only then did Kaman notice Ye Nan beside Mara. "Mara, your new prey?"
Mara likes to go to the bar at night, she knows. But she was seeing Mara bring a man to school for the first time.
"You shouldn't have feelings for him." Kaman pulled Mara to the side and lowered her voice. "This is not good. It's fine to play with men in the bar, but it's definitely not suitable to make friends."
"What are you thinking?" Mara complained to her meddlesome friend. "Where is it? He is not my boyfriend at all. We are just ordinary friends."
"Ordinary friends?" Kaman looked at Mara suspiciously. The more Mara said this, the more she doubted. Ordinary friends, why bring them to school? They are clearly boyfriend and girlfriend.
"It's ordinary friends." Mara looked at Kaman, who wouldn't believe it, and immediately became anxious. "We just met yesterday. What stage do you think we will develop to?"
"There are many love at first sights." Kaman still didn't believe Mara's words. She chattered on. "Otherwise, why would you bring him to school?"
"I said it's not." Mara was completely speechless at her friend. She suddenly felt that bringing Ye Nan to school was a wrong decision.
At this time, Ye Nan was staring at the bug in front of him.
This bug is very similar to the stinky bug on Earth before the apocalypse, but it is many times larger than the stinky bug, almost as big as a fat man's belly.
"This is a beetle." Rick said. "A beetle from another planet, a very powerful one."
"They have evolved for millions of years." A middle-aged woman wearing sunglasses walked past Ye Nan. "Humans claim to be the spirit of all things, but in reality, it is not."
"This beetle is far more refined than humans. Its reproductive ability is very strong, it has no selfishness, will not fear, and is never afraid of death. It is a member of the highly evolved Zerg society."
"Reproduction?" Ye Nan listened to the middle-aged woman's words and fell into deep thought.
"Is reproduction one of the Zerg's most powerful abilities?" Ye Nan murmured.
In the past, he was confused by the power of the virus. Under Matthew's guidance, he believed that the high combination of virus and biological weapons was the most perfect weapon. But now it seems he was wrong.
Admittedly, the Alien combined with the virus has incomparable power and occupies an absolute advantage in one-on-one combat because no one is afraid of the T-virus. As long as it is slightly contaminated by the T-virus, this virus will invade the flesh and turn people into zombies.
But in interstellar war, facing the powerful firepower of cosmic warships, the Alien is not enough to look at. Even if their power is ten times stronger, facing the artillery fire of interstellar warships, they will be annihilated without any resistance.
Although there are rules in the Pan-Galactic Alliance that do not allow the use of weapons sufficient to destroy planets, rules are dead and people are alive. Wanting to break through the constraints of rules is not a difficult thing.
For example, let others use weapons that destroy planets and take others as scapegoats. I believe such people are easy to find. After all, for a superior of a civilization, threatening a person to serve oneself is too simple.
And why can the Zerg fight against the local civilizations of the galaxy? It is mainly because of the quantity. The terrifying quantity of the Zerg, through constant reproduction, forms the Zerg sea tactics, which is enough to drown all civilizations.
"After going back, I still need to let Matthew study the reproduction problem of the Alien." Ye Nan murmured. The middle-aged woman can be said to have awakened the dreamer with one word. In an instant, she shattered Ye Nan's inherent thinking and produced new ideas.
No matter how strong the production speed of the Alien nest is, how can it be as strong as the self-reproduction of the Alien? That is a quantity that increases by multiples.
"Humans created art, mathematics, and interstellar travel." The middle-aged woman who didn't know her words gave Ye Nan a shock, still chattering. "Yes, but don't be arrogant. Take the Arachnid Zerg, that is a highly evolved society. From the human perspective, their wisdom is very low, but they have millions of years of evolutionary history."
The middle-aged woman pointed the instructor's stick, pressed it on it, and a holographic projection of a bug appeared on the projector.
This bug is the Zerg Warrior that invaded Earth last time, and it is the soldier with the largest number in the entire Zerg.
"Now, they can send their embryos into space and occupy other planets." The middle-aged woman walked to Ye Nan's side again. "Then, please tell me, a student from another school, what is your opinion on the Arachnid Zerg?"
The middle-aged woman's instructor stick pointed at Ye Nan's back, and a smile appeared on her face. "It's been a long time since students from other schools came here to audit."
"Uh, I……."
"He is my boyfriend."
Mara, who was afraid that Ye Nan would say the wrong thing, immediately interrupted Ye Nan's words.
"Oh, is that so? Bringing a boyfriend to school is a very bad habit, but this time it's counted." The middle-aged woman said pointedly.
"Thank you, teacher." Although he is a citizen and not afraid of this teacher who is not a major course, being able to have less trouble, Mara was still somewhat grateful. After all, this matter can be big or small.
"Okay, you continue the experiment, I won't disturb you." The middle-aged woman said, and retreated from the laboratory.
"Let's experiment together." Rick turned the beetle over, took a knife and cut the beetle's belly. "The beetle's shell is very hard. The knife cuts on it, and there won't even be a white mark, but its abdomen is very soft. A light cut can break it."
As the beetle's belly was broken, a stench that was hard to bear emanated from it, and unknown white viscous liquid flowed out from the broken abdomen.
"Hey, so disgusting." Mara retreated repeatedly, staying far away from Rick.
"Indeed very disgusting." Kaman also followed Mara to the back, but as soon as she turned around, she saw another disgusting thing being taken out of the beetle's abdomen by another woman, and immediately ran to the front of Rick with Mara.
