Chapter 1 Alien Mining
When the first black wormhole exit appeared in the sky in a swirl shape, people thought it was a strange astronomical phenomenon, and they all stopped to watch or take pictures to send memes, until countless alien warplanes flew out of it, and When people started shooting at the ground, people realized that the earth had been invaded by another high-level civilization. They all screamed and ran home, turned on the TV and looked forward to seeing the seemingly powerful army of their own country, driving away like in the movie The alien invaders successfully defended the earth.

However, the ending disappoints mankind. In the face of this powerful alien civilization, human technology and body are extremely fragile. After using a large number of nuclear weapons and still unable to win, human beings have no choice but to surrender in order to survive and become slaves to the invading civilization. Race, the sky of mankind has since collapsed, known as the slave era in history, and our story begins from this era.

Amidst the ear-piercing alarm, Yu Fei was woken up. If it was before, he would turn over and lie down for another 5 minutes, and would not get up until he was fully awake.But now he doesn't dare to do this, because freedom no longer belongs to him, or even to the vast majority of human beings. His current identity is a slave, and his occupation is the driver of an ore collection vehicle.

The alarm will only ring ten times in total. If the pressure sensor at the bottom of the bed detects that the person is still in bed within ten seconds, it will release an electric current and directly "wake up" the person who is still asleep. If you try it once, you will never forget it for life, and you will never want to try it a second time. What is even more ironic is that this invention was actually made by a human being. In order to reward him, the ruler gave him a free identity. A great sadness.

Jumping out of bed in the shortest possible time, Yu Fei closed his eyes and opened his mouth wide, and put his face into the automatic cleaning machine. It takes less than a minute to put on clothes and shoes, from waking up to leaving the room to assemble, which is faster than the emergency assembly of troops. It can be said to be very efficient, and it is exactly what the iron-blooded rulers need most. , High-efficiency, low-cost, easy-to-manage human slaves.

Breakfast is naturally very simple, a piece of synthetic food and a glass of water with no color, fragrance, and 3 minutes for each person to defecate. The alarm clock rings at seven o'clock, and around seven ten, the slave workers will appear In their respective positions, they started a busy day of work, and were driven back to their sleeping cells like animals until late at night, only having a 15-minute break for lunch and dinner. Day after day, year after year Year after year, some people committed suicide because they couldn't stand it, or were shot dead by the guards for deliberately making serious mistakes, but most of them chose to live in a numb state, although this kind of life is not too different from death.

Every day when he sits in the cab of the mining truck, Yu Fei will have an impulse. As long as he presses a few wrong buttons or shakes the operating handle a few times, he will be pulled out by the ruler's guards and put in confinement, or the mining truck will be put on purpose. He was sentenced to death for crashing and was shot dead in public, or he took off his oxygen mask to suffocate himself to death when the mining vehicle could not reach and needed manual exploration, but he never did this every time, because deep down, he still had a Things are not finished, which is also the source of motivation for him to persevere.

"I will definitely survive and complete the task" he said to himself in his heart, and at the same time pressed the "ready" button on the touch panel.

The ice-cold electronic synthesizer sounded "Mining vehicle number 027032 status inspection completed, driver 027032062 is in good condition, the hatch will open in ten seconds, the location is a type III terrestrial star, the surface temperature is minus 45 degrees Celsius, and the wind force is 9 , the oxygen content of the air is [-]/[-], the life system of the mine car can last for [-] hours, please bring the collected ore back within [-] hours"

It sounds like a well-intentioned guide, but Yu Fei knows that this is completely a kind of protection of the rulers' own property, because for those rulers, these numbered slaves are just like the cattle and sheep of the farmers in the past. To create profits, items that can be bought with money, not intelligent life that needs equality and freedom.

After these rulers enslaved humans, they focused on implementing tough iron-blood policies and management methods, so people privately called them "iron-blood clans", and these guys really fit the name. Iron means they have more advanced weapons, and blood means they have more advanced weapons. It is the cruel and merciless domination and killing of human beings.

Amidst the sound of the motor turning, the thick metal door of the base was slowly lifted up, and Yu Fei also drove the mining truck to the outside of the base. It is composed of dozens of human slaves, and depending on the size of a mothership, there may be hundreds to thousands of Sangvis members, and the number of humans is tens of thousands.

In general, motherships and bases are a bit like the concept of cities and communities before the slave era, but their actions are slightly different. City-sized motherships will look for planets with mining value in the galaxy, deploy bases and leave. After a period of time, come back to take back the collected resources and deliver supplies. If the planet is found to be dry, take back the base together, and then move to the next galaxy.

Yu Fei has been a mining vehicle driver for more than a year. This is the second planet he participated in the collection. It is a very inconspicuous planet in the Andromeda galaxy numbered M31. About 9 light-years from the center of the galaxy.

Sitting in the swaying mining cart, Yu Fei tried to relax himself a bit, and tried to hum two old songs from before the slave era, but was immediately warned by the mining cart's computer control system.

"Please concentrate on your work. Please don't do anything unrelated to work while driving the minecart. According to statistics, 75% of the minecart stories are caused by the driver's inattention. This behavior has been recorded, and more than three times will be reported."

"Damn it, break the computer, when I finish my mission and turn over, the first thing I will do is smash you up" Yu Fei cursed silently in his heart, because if he cursed aloud, the computer would perform voice recording and recognition And grammatical analysis, this kind of sentence will definitely be defined as a rebellious tendency, and it will directly carry out the death penalty of DNA destruction level, in other words, it will be wiped out in the era of technology.

So he just thought about this kind of thought in his heart. It is absolutely impossible to make a sound. While fantasizing about the scene of that day in his mind, Yu Fei clicked on the electronic map and asked the computer to help him find out where the mineral deposits might be distributed. area.

The so-called "mine" is actually a general term. It can be roughly divided into two categories, namely metal ore and organic matter. Needless to say, metals include gold, silver, copper, iron, aluminum, and even radioactive substances. If you find these mine carts, they will be mined back. Preliminary processing and classification are carried out in the base, and then sent to the mothership for refining, and finally used to manufacture star fighters, star cruisers, battleships, or to repair damage and daily maintenance of the mothership during interstellar travel, etc.

The scope of organic matter is wider. Flowers, plants and grass are considered as organic matter, and living and dead people lying there are also considered as organic matter. Specifically, hydrocarbons and their derivatives are counted. It is also a carbon-based life, and it is also a flesh and blood body that needs to eat and breathe oxygen.

It is also the flesh and blood of carbon-based life, but for some unknown reason, the body of the Iron Blood Clan is so powerful that human technology cannot break it. At the beginning of the invasion, there was even an empty-handed Iron Blood Clan member, Entire battalions of humans were destroyed without the use of any weapons, and survivors of that battle later recalled "it was like fighting a god."

This is also an important reason why human beings have no power to fight back at all. Not only are they several generations behind the Iron-Blood Race in technology, but they also have bodies that are so powerful that they can't even imagine. The only thing to fight is strategy. Although in the face of the absolute disparity in strength, it seems a bit ridiculous to consider strategy, but the Human Race Supreme Command made some arrangements of the nature of "holding back" before surrendering. One of them was to find The reason why the iron-blooded people who are also carbon-based life forms is extremely strong, the code name of the project is magnifying glass, and Yu Fei is one of the agents participating in this project.

This is one of the beliefs that Yu Fei strives to uphold every day. Every day when he dreams, he thinks: "Damn, I will figure out your details sooner or later, and then turn around and trample you to death one by one."

However, when he is calm or sober, he will start to doubt his own thoughts. After all, the organization that sent him out to carry out the mission no longer exists. With so many agents sent out at the beginning, I don’t know how many people can still be like him Persevere, or make more choices and face the reality, face this kind of enslaved life, and live slowly to old age, which is also an acceptable choice.

"Forget it, don't think about it so much, let's talk about it after finding the ore, otherwise it's a question of whether you can hear the alarm clock tomorrow morning with a magnifying glass or zooming in" Yu Fei said to himself, forcing himself to turn his attention back to the electronic map.

The electronic map is taken by drones and high-altitude satellites launched by the base. It looks nothing on the surface, and it is similar to the previous technological means of human beings. Different colors are identified for miners to use.

Among them, the metal ore distribution area will be marked with yellow, and green means that there is organic matter in the corresponding area. Yu Fei intends to choose the nearest yellow area. From his experience, the ore is dead after all, and it will not disgust you. They won't attack you, just use the mechanical arm on the mining vehicle to break them into pieces, then grab them into the bucket at the back of the carriage, fill them up and bring them back to the base before running the next trip.

But the area marked green is different. After all, the existence of organic matter represents life, and life itself is full of strange things. On a planet marked green, he saw a kind of insects living together in clusters. Creatures, what's more terrible is that these bugs are still devouring each other. Because they have no teeth, they swallow from one end and come out from the other. Almost threw up in the cab.

Another time was an unlucky colleague of Yu Fei, who rushed directly to the center of a large green area without looking carefully, and as a result, there were molluscs that could secrete corrosive liquid everywhere, and the ground looked like a swamp. The tires of the mining truck were burned and deformed as soon as they went in. The colleague jumped out of the car in a panic and wanted to escape, but he screamed and fell into the liquid on the ground before running a few steps, struggling under Yu Fei's gaze. After a few strokes, the final movement was to raise his arm, and the white bones were already exposed on it.

Since then, Yu Fei has tried to avoid mining organic matter as much as possible, and told everyone about this experience. Although there are not many opportunities to communicate, he still likes the feeling of helping the same kind, at least it makes him feel less lonely.

He also planned to do the same today, but it backfired. When he clicked on the yellow area, the voice of the on-board computer rang again: "Reminder, the ratio of metals to organic matter in the base inventory is out of balance. It is recommended to give priority to the collection of organic matter. If you adopt this suggestion , there will be an extra reward point, would you like to adopt this suggestion?"

Yu Fei hesitated for a moment, but still chose "Yes". The reward points are still very useful for human slaves. They can be exchanged for food and a certain amount of rest time. He can use the rest time to wander around the base, and You will have the opportunity to observe the life conditions of those members of the Sangvis family, which will also help him to complete the task. If it is more useful on the mothership, you will have the opportunity to find out the structure and principle of the Sangvis mothership, and why this thing It can jump in space and run across light years.

"Come on, the X400693 area of ​​planet number 42 in Andromeda, let's see what is there. Are you going to disgust me today, or attack me..."
