I was trying to survive in the community, but I was pulled into the management group

The camera is still open, but the camera is still open.

"Optical scanning has been connected..."

The interior of the spacecraft reflects the specific scanning picture outside, and a very short white plant branch is twisting in the capture net.

"Collecting specimens and generating logs. Okay, that's it. No matter what happens, unless there is a clear alarm, you are not allowed to leave the scanning area without permission."

Etto gave up the scanner's console and returned to the airship's command desk to line up the people in her team.

"Next, follow the order, each person will take turns, and all four scanners will be turned on and running. Don't be lazy."

"Captain, is there any punishment for being lazy?"

"Extend overtime."

"Ah... that's boring..."

Several team members began to work one after another. The boring scanning task was full of repetitive labor, so Cheng Xu didn't continue to observe.

He came to the plant debris that was just contained. Although he couldn't feel its breath directly, Cheng Xu happened to have seen the white form of that plant.

"This thing should be the plant on the crystal giant. It seems to have been active all the time..."

Cheng Xu felt that this thing should be a smoke bomb that disrupted the exploration work, because it was still swinging in the containment tank, like a broken gecko tail.

In order to find out what the crystal giant was doing, Cheng Xu flashed to the vicinity of his shelter.

The crystal giant disguised as molten metal still remained dead silent, and no changes could be seen on the surface.

Just when Cheng Xu was about to leave, a crack appeared in its chest, and it seemed that something was climbing out...

Several white plant tentacles squeezed out from the gap, dragging out a crystal creature of normal human height.

The thing still maintained the posture and structure of a human, but the body was translucent, and the outer shell was full of hollow patterns like mechanical structures, and the hollow internal structure could be seen.

Rather than saying it was a humanoid creature, it was more like a living armor.

After the armored creature successfully stepped on the floating debris in the universe, the cracks on the giant closed again, and there was no difference from before.

Less than a second later, Cheng Xu found that he had lost the trace of the creature, and it entered a state similar to invisibility.

However, the movement track it left still existed, and the fragments began to rotate under its footsteps.

Cheng Xu roughly predicted its trajectory and found that this guy seemed to fly directly towards the nearest detection boat.

Cheng Xu hurried to the nearest boat. The team was also busy. Their captain was also a human with ochre-red skin. It seemed that this was some kind of tradition of "Ochre Blade".

"Life signal detected, the 32nd today, too weird..."

"All are plant fragments, but they are still active and even growing."

"Look, it's the same this time."

Cheng Xu saw a potted plant with a flower pot on the scanner, and the reading seemed to be no different from the previous plants.

When it was about to be scanned by the radiation detection scanner, a plant individual hidden in the ruins next to it suddenly began to move.

The plant was like swinging a meteor hammer, waving the construction waste hanging on the plant fiber, and smashed towards the detection boat.

"Attack detected, machine gun ready!"

The automated close-in defense gun was quickly raised, and two shuttles of energy ammunition were ejected, smashing all the building fragments.

"Finally, there is a valuable containment object. Release the net!"

The large net with metallic luster expanded rapidly, wrapped up the plant that kept resisting, and put it into the containment queue.

When it attracted everyone's attention, a static plant with a flowerpot was put into the containment cage and thrown into the cargo hold hanging under the work area.

In the cargo hold, there seemed to be only one very old camera running. After all, each containment cage has its own monitoring device, and additional monitoring is installed just to supervise whether the warehouse keeper is working seriously.

The one in charge of guarding the warehouse is a mechanical life that looks very old. Its body is full of rusty metal plates and a large number of broken bolts.

"It's boring. They are all plants, and they look ugly..."

After taking a look at the new containment cage, the mechanical life no longer paid attention to the plants. He turned around and took

With his old screwdriver, he looked at the broken instruction manual and added an equally old iron plate to his body.

In a corner that he could not notice, the "flower pot" gradually cracked and turned into the armored creature again, and the plant fibers around his body moved quickly like tentacles.

A few seconds later, the internal structure of the containment cage began to crystallize, and some weak black flames burned the monitoring equipment at a very fast speed.

Then, he unscrewed his containment cage under the eyes of the mechanical creature, restored the optical invisibility again, and slowly moved along the alley.

"Humph, this is so beautiful, those old-fashioned people don't know what a nostalgic body is..."

The mechanical life looked at his armor plate painted with "New Future" and shook his head with great satisfaction. The rusty gears on his head also trembled a few times and almost collapsed.

"What should I install next..."

In order to prevent the captain from seeing that he was lazy, this mechanical life deliberately hid in the blind spot of the surveillance camera and kept selecting parts from the last technological era.

When it was selecting parts, it suddenly felt that its back armor sensor had a reading response.

It turned its head and looked behind itself. The camera from the old era could not see anything around, but the reading on its back armor was always there.

"There are still some problems with the parts modification. Go back to Hu Lier to adjust the parameters again..."

"Squeak..."

Suddenly, its body was paralyzed, and every component of its body entered a state of collapse, directly causing its signal to disappear from the team's monitor.

The captain curled his lips when he saw the signal disappear, because this kind of thing has happened more than once or twice.

"Hobert_72! Connect your sensor to me! Stop messing with your retro-style device!"

The unconscious mechanical life suddenly had a twitch, restored its energy supply, slowly stood up, and responded to the captain's order in a slightly different voice from before.

"Got it, I'm not lazy, absolutely not!"

"If the containment is lost, you'll be held responsible!"

"I will definitely protect the containment. The duty and honor of a warehouse manager is--"

"Alright, alright, shut up and move those parts away from the camera, or your boss will deduct your salary if he sees it!"
