Age of Cataclysm: I can light up the technology tree

Chapter 215: Stand up, Marus

The Proxima who got the signal, under the gaze of everyone, pursed his lips and walked forward quickly.

He skillfully took out a thin personal terminal from the backpack behind him and connected it to the identifier next to the door in front of him.

Then, the Proxima quickly waved his forelimbs and tapped the keys in front of him that looked like a "keyboard".

"Can it work?"

Levi looked at the Proxima who was concentrating in front of him and asked in a deep voice.

Faced with the question, the Proxima did not raise his head.

While typing quickly on the keyboard, he said aloud: "Don't worry, the algorithm we use has not been changed for 150 years."

Levi frowned: "What if... they changed the algorithm recently?"

"The Lyles in the Academy of Sciences will not do such thankless things!" The Proxima who was typing on the keyboard said unhappily, "Otherwise, how do you think I control these monitoring devices?"

The next moment, he slightly narrowed his three pairs of visual organs and tapped a key hard.

"Okay!"

The moment the voice fell, the heavy door of the main control room slowly opened, revealing Rex, who was wearing a gray coat and looked terrified.

The first floor of the incubation center.

Aquitas walked among the corpses with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

She suppressed the nausea that kept surging, squatted down constantly, and turned over the bodies of the thin Marus.

The surface of the corpse was covered with slippery blue blood.

In addition to some exposed organs...

An unusually soft and slippery organ slid across her fingertips.

That was the thinking organ!

Aquitas couldn't help vomiting in the pile of corpses.

Even so, she still didn't give up.

Once, twice, three times...

She kept searching the corpses in front of her.

This one is not...this one is not either...

As more and more corpses were searched, Aquitas's inner anxiety and irritability gradually increased.

Where did that No. 12 Marus go! ?

Thinking that Marus, who told them the information, might have been killed by random gunfire here, a strong sense of guilt arose in her heart.

Looking at the few remaining bodies of Marus in front of her, Aquitas silently closed her three pairs of eyes.

She wanted to give up.

"Who is it!"

"Come out!"

Several shouts came from a distance.

Aquitas was stunned, and a bit of vigilance was revealed in her eyes.

Could it be... There are still hidden enemies on the first floor of this incubation center? !

The next second, a shrill voice sounded.

"I, we are Marus, don't kill us!"

Hearing this familiar voice, Aquitas' heart beat violently!

She remembered this voice!

It was Marus No. 12!

She quickly moved her short lower limbs and ran in the direction of the voice!

When she saw Marus No. 12 standing timidly by the wall, a rounded arc appeared on the skin on the top of her thinking organ again.

Then, under the gaze of the Proxima people, she rushed to No. 12 Marus, squatted slightly, and hugged him tightly.

"Wow!"

"Wuhu~"

"Tsk tsk tsk!"

Exclamations came one after another from the side.

As for No. 12 Marus, his brain capacity was obviously not enough to handle so many complex events.

He stood there blankly, feeling an unprecedented warmth coming from the front of him.

Aquitas, who came back to his senses, let go of his hand awkwardly, stood up slowly, and glared at the Proxima people who were watching the excitement around him.

"This is No. 12 who risked his life to tell us the news!"

Hearing Aquitas' explanation, the Proxima people around looked at No. 12 with some surprise and curiosity.

I don't know when it started, one Proxima person after another faced No. 12 Marus, raised one hand spontaneously, and placed it on the top of his thinking organ.

Unlike the meaning of putting both hands on the top of the thinking organ, one hand means respect, not surrender.

These Proxima people paid tribute to Marus No. 12!

Marus No. 12 stood in the crowd, staring blankly at the magical scene in front of him.

…

At the same time, in the main control room on the third floor of the incubation center.

A gray-clad Rex was tied up and "put" on the ground.

Rex looked at the "rebels" in front of him with horror, and begged in a low voice: "Please, please, don't kill me."

"I can give you whatever you want!"

"I am Rex, I have money, I have resources, as long as you let me go, I can give you everything!"

No one paid attention to him.

At this time, all the rebellious Proxima people focused their attention on a surveillance screen.

When Aquitas ran over and hugged a Marus tightly, a sigh suddenly sounded in the main control room.

Almost all Proxima people cast ambiguous glances at Levi.

"Brother Levi, is that the one who told us the news, Marus No. 12?"

A Proxima pointed at the surveillance screen and asked in a low voice.

Levi did not answer, but just looked at the screen in front of him silently.

In a place that no one noticed, Levi's three pairs of eyes revealed some imperceptible disgust and contempt.

"Levi?"

"Ah, yes!" Levi adjusted his expression, turned around, and introduced to everyone in a gentle tone, "That is the hero I am talking about, who is not afraid of danger and reveals various matters to us."

Hearing this, Ricks, who was lying on the ground, showed deep confusion and hatred in his eyes!

"Why, why?"

He struggled to ask.

Levi looked down at Rex, and his voice suddenly became a little colder.

"Why?"

"Tell me, did something happen to the main star?"

The moment the words fell, Rex was shocked.

He subconsciously closed his breathing hole and held his breath.

"W-what? I can't understand what you said?"

Levi opened his breathing holes, blew out several hot breaths, raised the old-fashioned firearm in his hand, and pointed it at Ricks' thinking organ.

"I'm asking one last time."

"Did something happen to the main star?!"
