"Chu Xuan, you're incredible, being able to operate this equipment," Zheng Zha said in amazement.
"Don't be fooled. Even though humans in this era can travel through space, their technological usage isn't much different. You just need to study it a bit to understand," Chu Xuan adjusted his glasses and turned on the monitoring equipment. They could see traces of the aliens, but some of the monitors displayed static, likely damaged by the aliens' attacks.
Perhaps the aliens damaged the monitoring equipment while fighting the characters from this "Alien 1" storyline.
As for whether the aliens did it intentionally...
Chu Xuan acknowledged that the alien was an almost perfect killing machine, but it was driven only by instinct. Without systematic learning, it couldn't possibly understand what monitoring equipment is.
Therefore, they generally wouldn't destroy non-living things.
