Volume 1 Chapter 8 A New Beginning
Chromie couldn't help but glance at Chitaki more, and there was a look of admiration in his eyes.
"The Hibony is a pioneer ship that escaped from the destroyed Hypolyan, we are looking for a suitable planet to live in, by the way, I will tell you one thing, most of the areas we pass through have been destroyed by aliens, which means that you have no other habitat except for the Hibony."
Everyone present, including the pirates, was also stunned, with shocked expressions on their faces.
Three days later, Chitaki opened his eyes, and he still felt like he was dreaming, lying on a very hard metal bed at this time, looking up at the metal ceiling.
The space of the room is very narrow, about seven square meters, there is no separate toilet, a bed, a table, this is all the furniture, there is a light in the ceiling, a vent.
Although he was taken in, he really became the lowest citizen.
The Hiboni is a giant interstellar mothership, according to Chromie, the Hiboni is about 80 kilometers long and 25 kilometers wide, and is home to more than 20 million people.
And not all of the mothership is living quarters, so you can imagine how overcrowded the Hibony is at this time.
The living area is divided into 5 zones, A, B, C, D, F. The resources enjoyed by each region are also different.
Chitaki is now in the lowest F area, which is specially used to house wandering interstellar refugees, according to the captain of the Hibony, the mothership is a person in a sense, and people need to be injected with fresh blood.
Of course, the Hiboni does not support idlers, and after being contained, it has to rely on itself to find work to support itself, and there are two currencies on the Hiboni, one is the point point, and the other is the star coin.
Chitaki is a little confused, the points are understandable, but why can Star Coins still be used, didn't Chromie say that the place where they had passed had basically fallen?
This has always puzzled Chitaki, and the Hippany has been wandering in this boundless universe for more than two hundred years, which means that the alien race has already crossed the Firas defense line without knowing what means it used.
When Hypolyan was destroyed, it was also attacked from the rear, so the Hiberni had no way to fly to the rear, so she thought about going to the Firas Line and asking for help there.
It is equivalent to saying that the ship is flying towards the front line.
The technology used by the ship's shipboard is very good, using light energy and energy crystal stones, as for the materials, part of it depends on the mothership's internal circulation system and production area, and some of it is found along the way.
Synthetic food technology is very mature, and basically it is not a problem to produce as much as you want, but there is one key problem, synthetic food requires energy.
According to the policy on the spaceship, he can use it for free for 3 months, and within 3 months, for example, water resources can enjoy a certain amount of free, and other public resources are free, and then if you want to use it, you need to pay fees, for example, the nest needs to pay 100 points every month, or 100 star coins, the two are equivalent.
There was a knock on the door, and Chitaki opened the door in confusion.
I saw Chromie standing in the doorway, showing a sunny smile that he thought was very good.
Milo followed behind Chromie, holding a box in his hand.
"Boy, don't invite us in."
"Please come in." Chitaki replied.
Chromie walked in, looked around, and said.
"How about getting used to it."
"It's good." Chitaki replied.
"These synthetic foods are for you." Chromie motioned for Milo to put the box down.
Milo placed the box on the table next to him.
"Didn't the spaceship be sent?" Chitaki couldn't help but look at Chromi.
Chromie replied nonchalantly, "This is also from the ship, hurry up and look for a job, even if it is a request, find a job, you can survive on this ship, otherwise you will only starve to death, and in the end the corpse will become nourishment." ”
Chitaki asked with a moment's hesitation.
"Why are you telling me so much."
Chromie sighed, "There's not so much why, since I've survived, I'll live all the time, and I'll not talk to you anymore, I'll go to the next house, it's really troublesome work." ”
Chromie got up and walked out.
After sending the two away, Chitaki looked at the small box of nutrition bars and fell silent.
The spaceship has already sent rations for seven days, and this small box is estimated to have a month's share, and the spaceship will not be so generous, which can only be a gift from Chromie himself.
Chitaki took a deep breath, he needed to show up looking for work, and he had been touched by a nose for two days before.
The technology of the Belok Star is more scum than that of the Hipponi, and the refugees who have fled here have little use even if they have any technology.
Chitaki walked out and closed the door.
At a glance, there are dense metal buildings in front of you, and there are connecting passages between each building, and you can't see the bottom when you look down, and Chitaki's room number is F2-65-345-214.
F2 represents the second district in the F district, 65 represents Building 65, 345 represents the number of floors, and 214 is the room number.
During the day, the residents of Area F can cross to Area D, but must return after seven o'clock, and the time in the mothership is 24 hours, and the mothership's intelligent light brain controls the artificial sun to alternate day and night, which is the most suitable mode for human habitation.
Chitaki walked towards the passage to Area D, there will be more job opportunities in Area D than F, of course, the competition is also very fierce, as for the treatment, there is no need to be too delusional, it is very good to be able to find it.
There are not many people who think the same way, and Chitaki even sees some familiar figures, refugees who have been resettled on the spaceship together.
Many people smiled at Chitaki when they saw him, and Chitaki also smiled and nodded in response.
Soon Chitaki walked to the forks, which led to the different subdivisions of Area D.
Chitaki plans to try her luck in the D1 area this time.
There is a checkpoint at the junction between Area D and Area F, and anyone who wants to enter Area D has to go through some instrument inspections, which is considered discrimination in a certain way, and this discrimination is not completely unreasonable, after all, the living conditions in Area F are not good, and there are often new refugees entering, although there is a physical examination before getting on the spaceship, but the ghost knows what can not be checked, and daily routine inspections are still needed.
Chitaki walked to the checkpoint and lined up with the crowd.
The passage for the inspection is very wide, and the crowd enters very quickly.
Soon it was time for Chitaki to walk into a section of specially inspected arched passage.
Stepping inside, you could feel the different colors of light sweeping over him.
"Identification passed."
"Chitaki."
"Fifth-class citizens."
"In good health."
"Mental State: Health"
Chitaki walked through the inspection passage as she listened to the cold mechanical voice.
