Chapter 509 Things Peeping Secretly

"He woke up."

"But the body hasn't recovered yet."

"Try to communicate with him now?"

"Don't worry, and then give him some time to recover and let him familiarize himself with the strange environment by the way."

"Is it really necessary to be so careful?"

"We can't stimulate this hard-won alien to have a mental breakdown. In that case, we can only treat him as a material resource. Does anyone want to see such a bad result?"

"Then keep waiting."

Of course, the collectors have not disappeared. They have always been hidden on the outside of the room, or the room where the aliens are located, which is part of their combination.

This is mainly to prevent aliens from receiving too much information stimulation after waking up from hibernation to prevent mental breakdown.

Collectors often see this kind of plot in the Selin science fiction films. They are not sure whether the alien found near the black hole is as fragile as the Selin in terms of thinking.

Of course, if it is based on the collector as the reference template, this information impact can only be regarded as a breeze, but it is not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. If this alien is crazy, the collectors will be broken to find the clues of a new civilization, which is an unacceptable loss.

The alien in the room barely supported his upper body to sit up. It has been almost two weeks since he regained consciousness. Now his physical function has recovered a lot, but he can't get out of bed and walk.

The alien first looked at his hands, and then looked at every part of his body. After confirming that there was no lack of arms and legs, he was relieved.

Then he began to look around and fully understand the room he was in.

A pure white and empty room, the words 'four walls of the family', are very suitable for today's scenes. The whole room is just a bed, a one-legged small round table, and a transparent cup. The alien's vision is clear at a glance, and there is no secret.

What collectors want is this effect. In a clear environment, it is most easy to let people down their vigilance. The relaxed spirit helps to restore physical health, and it can also play a buffer role in the impact caused by the first contact later.

Aliens don't feel hungry, because before waking up, a highly compressed organic polymer was implanted by the collector in his stomach bag, which can maintain the body function for a long time without eating. Generally speaking, it is a special compression biscuit, but the density is higher, and the hardness is even above some alloys. If you bite your teeth, you will definitely break your teeth.

However, although it will not be hungry, the water still needs to be replenished. The organic water bag transplanted in the alien's stomach bag has been absorbed in two weeks, and the alien who has been able to sit up is extremely thirsty at this moment.

Naturally, he saw the water on the table, picked it up carefully, looked at it for a while, put it in front of his nose and smell it first, and then tentatively licked the transparent liquid in the cup with his tongue.

All signs show that the liquid in the cup is colorless and tasteless, and is not volatile. It is probably the substance he needs most, water.

But the alien was very cautious. He resisted his thirst, poured some water from the cup on the sheets, and then closed his eyes and waited.

Outside the room, some of the collectors who have been observing the actions of aliens have shown dissatisfaction because of the alien's behavior.

"He is too careful. If we were to kill him, he would have died long ago."

"It's normal to be vigilant in a strange environment."

"I don't understand why he deliberately poured out the water in the cup. Can anyone explain it?"

"Wet the fiber body with the liquid in the cup, Then wait for the fiber body to recover and observe the softness and hardness of the fiber body. If it is the same as before, it means that the liquid in the cup is likely to be water. If it is hard or other changes, it means that it is not water in the cup, or there are many unknown impurities in the water.

"Well..."

In the room, the aliens drank the water in the quilt at ease after confirming that the steamed sheets were not abnormal.

However, it is a pity that the alien is still miscalculated. The cup of water was indeed added by the collectors.

That cup is not water, but a transparent organic solution, which can accelerate the body's metabolism and supplement vitamins in aliens. It has a taste. If it is drunk by Selin or humans, it can be tasted, and the taste is still very strong, but the collectors specially modulated it for the alien physiological system. So when the aliens taste it, this cup of solution is 'colorless and tasteless'.

The liquid poured on the sheet is almost the same as that of water. This is mainly because the sheet is alive. Not only the sheets, beds, tables, cups, but also special living organisms, but look like non-living things - the latent skills of collectors in the Selinian society are not in vain.

No matter how careful the alien is, he will never think of this.

A few weeks have passed, and about a month has passed since they woke up. Aliens have been able to walk on the ground, but they need to support the wall. 

Aliens also became a little anxious during this period.

He groped all the way along the wall of the room, trying to find the exit from the wall to leave the room, but it was destined to be useless. The collectors could do molecular processing, and it was not a big problem to create a room without gaps.

Sometimes, aliens will shout loudly in their own civilized language, but the collectors can't understand what he is saying. Considering that the aliens are still in the recovery stage, they pretend not to hear and keep silent - in short, if there is any problem, we will wait for a complete recovery.

In this way, another month passed unconsciously. The aliens no longer shouted at the language that the collectors could not understand from time to time, but a dull person huddled in a corner of the room, as if he had Alzheimer's disease.

"How is he doing?"

"It's much calmer than before, and there is no more noise, which shows that his mental state has recovered well."

"Is it good? Why do I think he is going to be stupid?

"Do you have it?"

The collector looked doubtfully at the alien nestled in the corner. He was like an autistic child. He nestled in the corner without saying anything, did not do anything, and even breathed very smoothly. It was not too much to say that he was a vegetable.

"Don't care about this. When will we communicate?"

"Wait for a while, it should be... Damn it! Why does he want to commit suicide?!"

Before the collector finished delivering the information, the aliens in the room took unexpected actions, and he was ready to die.
