Chapter 2
"Hello, Keeper Su. I'm the nanny robot numbered 4586. We'll be colleagues from now on. Nice to meet you!"
The nanny robot hovered beside Su Ci, speaking in a cheerful tone, its electronic eyes blinking.
This nanny robot has a round head and a round brain. Its metal shell is sprayed with brightly colored dyes and painted with cute little yellow flowers.
"Can I call you Susu?" it said very familiarly.
Su Ci looked at the robot and felt something was new about it.
Like a puppet, but more flexible and intelligent, and seems to have its own thoughts.
At this moment, they had already left the administrative building.
In order to return to the nursery faster, under the guidance of 4586, Su Ci came to a raised circular platform in front of the administrative building. After he and the robot stood on it, an electronic panel appeared in front of him.
A ray of light passed across his face.
【Didi——Authentication passed】
Hello, trainee breeder Su Ci, please enter the location you need to go to.
A rough map of Base 24 appeared on the virtual screen: Administration, Logistics, Medical and Purification, Operations...
The words were unfamiliar, but Su Ci could understand them.
Finally, at the urging of the nanny robot, his eyes fell on the nursery.
This building is located in the center of the base, but there is a large area around it that is protected and kept away.
Click Su Ci to select it.
【Choose Success】
【Transmitting】
A white light lit up on the circular platform under his feet, submerging Su Ci in it. When Su Ci opened his eyes again, he had already arrived at the circular platform at the entrance of the nursery.
【Transmission successful】
[This transfer deducted 1 point, remaining points: 99]
Su Ci glanced at the circular platform under his feet. It had a similar function to a teleportation array, but the operating principle seemed to be different.
He was just thinking about it when he heard the voice of the nanny robot: "It's almost dinner time, Susu, we have to hurry and prepare dinner for the babies!"
"If you're not on time, the babies will be angry!" 4586 reminded.
dinner?
Su Ci's eyes lit up, and without 4586 urging him, he followed it towards the nursery building.
In front of the nursery is a large yard with tall and thick metal walls on all four sides. The walls are at least as high as two or three stories high.
Walking in from the outside, both the road and the yard are not bare ground, but are covered with metal floors made of the same special material. They are smooth and reflect the faint light under the street lights.
As they walked, 4586 said, "The babies are upstairs. Let's go to the kitchen now. The supplies from the supply station have arrived today, so we can give the babies a good meal!"
Hearty?
"Okay, okay."
After passing the lobby on the first floor of the nursery, he soon entered the kitchen. However, unlike what Su Ci had imagined, there was no stove in the kitchen. It was still clean and tidy, but with a somewhat cold metal style.
“Ding Di——”
Su Ci's communicator suddenly rang.
[Nanny robot No. 4586 is sending you the file [Nursery Baby Recipe]. Do you want to receive it immediately?]
4586 had already flown to the corner of the kitchen. "Susu, I've sent you the flavors the babies like, as well as the calories and nutrients they need to consume every day."
As it spoke, it came to the corner, and a panel automatically lit up. The nanny robot raised its hand, and you could see its fingers open, and a data cable extended from the hollow fingers and connected to the panel.
Then, a door opened from the wall, and a cold air came out from the doorway.
Su Ci withdrew his gaze and chose to receive on the communicator.
He is quite interested in recipes and the like.
After he clicked receive, a document automatically opened and popped up on the screen.

…
Su Ci blinked in confusion. How could he remember the human race’s recipe...it didn’t seem like this?
Also, why only numbers two to eight?
Where is number one?
And when he saw what 4586 took out of the cold storage, the expression on his face became even more confused.
I saw square boxes stacked together in the cold storage being sent out, and then it moved these square boxes to the instrument in another corner of the kitchen.
4586 opened the square box again, revealing the gel-like solid inside. At the same time, Su Ci smelled the aroma of meat.
Is this meat?
Su Ci watched 4586 pour box after box of gel solids into the instrument. After pouring about four boxes, he stopped and tapped on the instrument panel.
"This is the dinner for baby number two. If you have enough supplies, you can increase the calories in the recipe by 10%."
Su Ci heard the nanny robot's explanation and thought about what it had just said... So this is what it meant by "abundance"?
He always felt something was wrong, but as he smelled the increasingly fragrant scent in the air, he still felt a little bit of anticipation. He had slept for so long and was really hungry.
"Bang--"
Steam escaped, and the hatch on the other side of the food processor opened, and a large plate of steaming hot food that looked like a mountain of meat was sent out.
4586 continued to add ingredients to the food processor. After setting the settings, he ran to take the food for cub No. 2 to the table next to him and put it there, then covered it with a lid.
Su Ci smelled the aroma of meat and felt hungry.
When 4586 turned around, he opened the lid a little, picked up a small spoon next to it, scooped out a little, and put it directly into his mouth.
It was a little hot and chewy when put into the mouth, and the taste was not fragrant. I couldn't tell what kind of meat it was.
The taste is bland and not tasty.
Su Ci was a little disappointed.
At this moment, he suddenly seemed to sense something and turned his head to look towards the kitchen door.
The kitchen door was not closed, and you could see the empty corridor outside. There was no one in the corridor.
The next moment——
“Bang! Bang! Bang!!!”
The peace was broken, and a violent crash was heard from outside the door, followed by the screams and cries of a young child, faintly mixed with the roars of tigers and lions.
"Ouch! Ouch!"
The nanny robot hastily put down the food ingredients in its hands and said in panic, "Something's happened to the babies again! We have to go quickly! Otherwise, 4583 will be in danger!"
4586 rushed out of the door. Su Ci looked at the plate, hesitated for a moment, then put down the spoon and followed it.
-
Soon, they arrived at the second floor, but as soon as they got out of the elevator, before they could reach the restaurant——
"Bang!!!"
A hole was knocked through the metal wall of the restaurant. With a flash of light and shadow, the figure that broke through the metal wall slammed heavily against the wall of the nursery building and slowly slid to the ground.
Su Ci looked over and saw the figure lying on the ground. It had the body of a human cub, about seven or eight years old, but it had two animal ears on its head and a furry tail hanging from its butt.
"roar--"
The child got up from the ground, stared in the direction of the hole, and roared angrily like a lion.
Although the voice sounded a little childish, it was already quite powerful.
Is this... a demonic beast? Su Ci looked at the child who had climbed back up with great interest.
The child's brown eyes were filled with ferocious hostility. He glanced at Su Ci, then glared at the hole, cursing in a low voice, "Number Two! Are you looking for death?"
He got on all fours and jumped into the hole nimbly and swiftly. The sound of fighting soon came out again, causing 4586 to scream.
"Four Four! Stop fighting! Stop fighting!"
The hole was too small, so 4586 had no choice but to take a detour and fly in through the door.
Su Ci stood where he was, poked his head through the hole in the wall, and peeked into the room.
This room was originally a dining room, furnished with tables and chairs for children, but now it was in a mess, with the tables and chairs overturned and smashed.
Two kids with animal ears and tails were wrestling on the ground, occasionally throwing each other against the wall, creating holes in it.
In addition to the two fighting, there were two or three children standing by watching the fun, clapping and cheering from time to time, screaming with excitement on their faces, their voices deafening.
There was a small figure sitting alone in the corner, he lowered his head and played with the toy in his hand, indifferent to everything happening around him.
Not far from this child, a pile of spare parts was scattered in the corner of the wall. Another little girl with slightly longer hair and wearing a skirt was clumsily holding up the head of a nanny robot and trying to put it back on its body that had been smashed to pieces.
But no matter how hard she tried, it wouldn't go back.
"Good boy, put me down quickly, or you'll get hurt... Zila... Can I sing a song for you? Zila..."
The nanny robot was still emitting joyful electronic sounds, but the sound had obviously begun to distort, with intermittent electric current sounds.
This poor robot is probably the dangerous 4583 that 4586 just mentioned. Unfortunately, they are still too late.
4586 didn't care about his fellow cubs. He rushed over to the two cubs fighting and said urgently, "Two, two, four, four, stop it! Good kids, don't fight. Stop it now!"
However, the two cubs simply couldn't stop. The more it shouted, the harder they fought, and the other cubs who were cheering also shouted more excitedly.
The scene before us was nothing short of a disaster. The noise produced would make it impossible for any normal person to stay here for long.
After listening for only a short while, Su Ci felt his ears begin to hurt.
He looked at the noisy scene in front of him. He was already in a bad mood and frowned irritably. As his brows frowned tighter and tighter, a cold golden light slowly emerged in the young man's warm black eyes.
At the moment when the golden light appeared, the two cubs who were wrestling with each other on the ground and fighting fiercely suddenly froze.
Immediately afterwards, they closed their eyes, suddenly collapsed and fainted.
Hey, why don’t you fight anymore?
As the two fighting people fainted, the children who were shouting and cheering slowly stopped and looked at them in confusion. 4586 naturally stopped trying to stop the fight.
The restaurant became quiet, and Su Ci's frown relaxed.
The world is pure.
The golden light in his eyes dissipated, and he slowly retreated from the cave entrance. Just as he was about to walk into the restaurant, he heard hurried footsteps behind him.
Su Ci turned his head and saw several people wearing dark red uniforms and holding guns appearing in the corridor, led by a woman.
Seeing him, the woman's eyes lit up slightly and she quickly approached him.
"You're the new breeder, Su Ci, right?" The woman showed her ID card. "I'm Xun Xiaoyu from the Operations Department. I'm here because of the alarm. Is the cub going crazy again?"
Su Ci looked at her, then looked at the team member behind her who was approaching the hole in the metal wall with a wary look on his face, and nodded calmly.
"Where are they now? What's the situation?" Xun Xiaoyu certainly noticed the hole in the wall, but it was so quiet that the crazy cubs might no longer be inside.
However, she saw the extremely beautiful young breeder in front of her stretched out a finger and pointed inside the hole in the wall.
Xun Xiaoyu was puzzled and looked into the hole in the wall.
I saw number two and number four lying on the ground together, surrounded by three cubs. The three cubs were either standing or squatting, looking down at them curiously, poking number four's forehead with their fingers, and putting their feet in front of number two's nose.
However, the two cubs on the ground did not move.
As for the remaining two cubs, one was playing with toys and the other was playing with a broken nanny robot.
There are seven cubs in total, no more, no less, all in here.
Xun Xiaoyu withdrew his gaze blankly and gestured to the team members behind him. They then ran into the restaurant swiftly and checked the two cubs on the ground.
"He just fainted, there's no danger to his life!" one of them shouted.
Xun Xiaoyu couldn't help but look at Su Ci, "Did you give them anesthesia?"
Is your shooting skill so good?
Su Ci shook his head and said very honestly: "I'm just watching from outside."
