Galactic Technological Library

Chapter 139: Base Zero!

Editors and Proof Reader: Delther, Dervish

After Fu Yan left the area, the remaining soldiers cleared the area one by one and left the scene.

But the speed they left was even faster than they arrived. It was evident that they wanted to get away from Fu Yan as fast as they could.

The commander silently followed Fu Yan and did not dare to utter any kind of sound. He was afraid of anyone disrupting the Librarian and the last scene repeating itself but this time, the whole planet would get caught up in it.

Not knowing what was going inside the commander's mind, Fu Yan walked with the commander following him.

After walking for a while, They reached the castle-like building.

When Fu Yan got near, He noticed that even though this building looked like a castle, it was nothing but a military fort with weapons mounted on each and every corner of it.

When he reached its gate, suddenly lights lit up and all of them focused on Fu Yan and the commander in red armor.

Just when they were about to open fire on the intruders, the commander in red armor hastily walked forward and brought out a piece of glass from his pocket.

He lifted the glass towards the gates and then a blue laser light landed on the glass. After 2 seconds, the laser light turned red and the flashlights turned off.

Finishing whatever he was doing, the commander turned towards Fu Yan and gave a respectful bow.

"Sir! Sorry for their rude behavior. I will punish them later on and rest assured, the punishment won't be light."

Fu Yan listened to the explanation without giving any kind of reply. He turned his attention towards the gate and then with a loud mechanical noise, the door lifted up.

Fu Yan calmly walked in without any kind of fear and the commander soon followed.

After they walked in, Fu Yan looked around and saw soldiers, weird looking vehicles, and armors, ready for any kind of situation.

They all seemed professional and well trained. Seeing this, Fu Yan knew why the other planets in this galaxy liked to trade with people on [Ligrion] and even asked for their mercenary service from time to time.

Just from how they responded when he landed on this planet and the vigilance they showed even after one of their commanders led him in, Fu Yan liked them.

Of course, no matter how good they were, they would never dare to mess with the Library and they also knew it.

After coming in, When Fu Yan was wondering where to go next, the commander behind him slowly walked towards him and asked in a respectful voice.

"Sir, If you don't mind, I would like to take you to see the commander of this base. The book that we borrowed from the Library is not in this base but at base zero, I mean at the main base."

Fu Yan gave a nod hearing this and then gave a last look to the soldiers who looked like if he made any kind of sudden moments, they would jump on him like hungry wolves. 

After walking for a while, under the guidance of the commander in red armor, Fu Yan reached the innermost part of the castle, and then he was greeted with a warm welcome by the commander of the base.

The base commander was not wearing any kind of armor. When Fu Yan saw this, he felt as if the base commander was a character out of a horror movie. 

Even though the commander gave a warm welcome, Fu Yan still had a cold face. He did not give any kind of reply to the commander's greetings and said with a straight face.

"When are you bringing the book to me? You should know that the more you delay, the greater the late fees will be so don't waste my time and get me to the book immediately."

When the base commander heard this, his excited face immediately disappeared and he replied with an apologetic tone.

"Sir, We are sorry for your precious time. I will immediately prepare the ships to go to base zero. Please give me a little more time. In the meantime, I will let my subordinates entertain you. I will make sure that it doesn't take more than 2 flos ( 20 Earth minutes)."

After hearing this, Fu Yan thought for a second and then gave a slight nod. 

"Ok, I will look around in the meantime. But make sure to do it as fast as you can. The later it is, the more you will lose."

Hearing this, the commander cheered up a little and then walked out after giving a bow. 

After the commander went out, the remaining people looked at Fu Yan with nervousness, not knowing what to do. 

Fu Yan gave them a quick look and then strolled around to kill some time. While he was wandering around, Fu Yan saw an interesting room. 

As he walked towards the room, two guards with rifles came forward to stop him but when they saw the many commanders behind him, they stopped in their tracks and obediently opened the doors for him. 

Fu Yan did not say anything about this and just walked in. After he walked in, he saw a room of stars and holograms.

There were many things that he had never seen before. Like the star maps and how people navigate and use them to travel around. 

Just when he was wondering how to understand them, one of the commanders walked up and slowly explained.

"Sir, we use special encryption in our star maps and only the commanders are taught how to understand these maps. If you don't mind, may I explain them to you?" The commander asked politely, while fear could also be seen inside his eyes as if wondering if he did the right thing or not.

Fu Yan looked at the commander who said this and when he did this, his cold eyes gave the person in question shivers. The commander was about to fall onto the floor with fear when Fu Yan opened his mouth and replied.

"Since you offered to save my time, then go ahead. But remember, if It's boring then..." Fu Yan stopped talking suddenly and gave the commander a cold look. 

When he heard this, the commander felt life coming back to his body and then he excitedly started to explain the star map. It seems that he had confidence in their technology and resources. 

Fu Yan calmly listened to all this and even though he was surprised inside his heart, he did not show any of it on his face. 

It was calm and cold like before and at this moment Fu Yan looked as if he was listening to a student giving a presentation about the subject he taught.

After 1 flow (10 minutes), the commander finished explaining everything about the star map and then looked towards Fu 

Yan to see his reaction but he was met with the same golden eyes. 

Fu Yan did not reply to the commander and calmly walked towards one section of the room. There were many devices there that had the same images as the big hologram in the middle of the room but compared to it, these devices were smaller and seemed more advanced.

Seeing Fu Yan interested in these devices, the same commander walked up to him and explained with a soft voice. 

"Sir, these devices are used for discovering new galaxies and planets with resources. We use them to perform scans on the new galaxies and planets we discover and when we find life, we mark them on the star map. As a matter of fact, this base is mainly responsible for these things."

Fu Yan again calmly listened and never gave any kind of reply. It was just that when he saw the star map on one of these devices, he discovered something that piqued his interest. 

So he walked up to it and then stood in front of it. He stared blankly into the air for a while, then started to operate the device.

After doing some operations, Fu Yan turned the device to its previous state and then looked back.

He noticed that the base commander was already here and seemed to be waiting for him.

Fu Yan gave the machine a last look and then walked out of the room. He decided that he will talk about this with the commander in chief of this planet.
