Chapter 130 The Secret of the Torch
The strong man grabbed Sein's head, shouted a series of words that were not interstellar lingua franca, his face turned red, and he shook Sein's head, his voice hoarse and extremely fanatical.
Then, he looked stunned, as if he had received some instruction, and threw the head aside, and quickly stepped forward to pull Sein's body.
After completing the complicated unlocking steps, stuff the gene suppressor that was refolded into pieces and another piece of fluorescent metal equipment into your backpack.
Then he suddenly kicked open one of the stalls and squatted on the toilet. The frightened middle-aged man waved his hands repeatedly.
Before he could take action, the other party rolled his eyes and passed out. The strong man was also stunned, and then quickly tied him up.
He looked up at the smoke alarm on the ceiling again, jumped up suddenly, and smashed it with one punch, causing water droplets to spray out.
Immediately, a virtual projection popped up at the entrance of the toilet - "Under maintenance"
After dealing with all this, he took off his coat and left in a hurry.
Outside the No. 13 connection channel, Guyat looked down at the time, adjusted his collar, and straightened the position of the badge on his left chest.
He looked back at the welcoming team and couldn't help but frown slightly: "Where's Sein? Where did he go?"
"It seems he went to the toilet." Someone responded, causing dissatisfaction: "Toilet, he is a C-level life form "My metabolism is extremely slow, I just need to control it a little. Why do I have to go to the toilet at this time?"
"I'm afraid I have no respect for the Duke."
There was a low noise in the team. He also frowned slightly, "Hurry up and get him back."
"Yes." Two people took the order and left the team in a hurry.
After a while, an emerald green shuttle-shaped interstellar spacecraft appeared, like a giant whale traveling through the stars.
The surface is covered with smooth quantum stealth material, sharp wing blades extend from both sides, and the sensor matrix shines with blue light.
At the tail of the spacecraft, the green light beam of the energy emission engine gradually extinguished, and under the guidance of the landing track, it slowly docked at the platform.
Although it is not a regular envoy team, it is still a Duke of Sera. Blue Star has given some privileges. Except for Sera's welcoming team, everyone else on this platform has been isolated.
The cabin door opened, the suspended stairs extended out, and a figure walked out, wearing elegant green and white clothes and a golden-green garland on his head. He was about fifty or sixty years old, his eyes were calm, and on both sides of his nose, The ravines are deep.
He walked steadily, step by step, followed by a large number of people.
"Welcome to His Excellency Duke Bai Ye!" Guyat led a group of troops to salute respectfully. Many people gathered outside the cordon and even took out their smart terminals to take pictures, out of curiosity.
"Gu Yat, long time no see." Duke Bai Ye nodded slightly, then looked around at the accompanying team, shook his head and said: "After all, we are in the Blue Star Civilization, so there is no need to make such a big show of it."
Gu Yat Te Ze said, "It has been streamlined a lot. I wanted to apply to Blue Star for regular mission etiquette, but they refused."
"That's enough." Duke Bai Ye frowned, "Leave as soon as possible, I don't want to Likes to be watched.”
"Understood." Guyate nodded and glanced around the area calmly, his face looking a little ugly.
"What's wrong?" Duke Bai Ye noticed this keenly, "Is there any unexpected situation?"
Guyart hesitated slightly, and Duke Bai Ye did not ask further questions, but looked at Asked the deputy beside him, "What unexpected situation happened to you?"
"This..." The deputy hesitated, but Guyart explained, "Your Excellency, there is no unexpected situation, it's just that someone went to the toilet. He's not back yet."
"Go to the bathroom?" Duke Bai Ye was a little stunned and looked unhappy. Although he didn't like these etiquette, it didn't mean he could leave at will when he was greeted.
"What's your name?"
"Sein." Guyat lowered his head.
"Huh?" Duke Bai Ye looked over, and then said coldly: "Is it him? It was under his care that His Highness Yuko was killed?"
"Yes. Like this."
A hint of murderous intent appeared in Duke Bai Ye's eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
"In that case, let's wait for him here."
Many people in the entourage behind Guyat looked at each other and then gloated.
However, before waiting for too long, everyone discovered that there was some vague commotion on the left side, and exclamations kept coming.
Many people gathered over, as if something had happened.
"What's going on over there?" Duke Bai Ye looked into the distance, with an inquiry in his tone.
Guyate withdrew his gaze. For some reason, he felt a little uneasy in his heart. After hearing Duke Bai Ye's words, he was ready to send someone to investigate.
But before the manpower was assigned, the two people who were sent out to look for Saiin hurried back, looking flustered.
“Why are you in such a panic?” Guyat scolded, and then he heard two people say hastily: “Se, Sein, dead!”
What! ?
Guyat's pupils shrank, and he suddenly grabbed one of the people by the collar and brought it to his eyes. His eyes widened and he said sternly: "Is the news confirmed?"
Duke Bai Ye's face darkened, and the throats of everyone around him rolled.
"Yes, sure, we saw Sain's body with our own eyes, and his head was cut off." Another person quickly added, pointing to the direction of the commotion: "It's in the toilet over there. .”
It’s really dead!
Guyart took a deep breath, confusion and panic surged into his heart at the same time.
Although he couldn't understand Saiin, Saiin's life level was clearly there, and he was cut off his head so silently.
"I was given such a big welcome gift when I first arrived." Duke Bai Ye suddenly smiled, but it made people feel cold.
"Your Excellency the Duke..." Guyat couldn't help but said, but was interrupted.
"Even if Saiin is guilty, it should be dealt with by our Thera civilization!" He said solemnly: "Notify Blue Star and let them give an explanation!"
Guyart's heart Don't worry, Duke Bai Ye is here, so he has a backbone.
……
At the same time, a slightly dilapidated starship painted in red and blue approached the No. 23 connection channel, with traces of iron welding everywhere on the surface.
A broadcast sounded in the cabin--
"Hello, this is Jingnan-Houston Star Port-No. 23 Connection Channel. According to the [Blue Star Safety Protection Regulations] , we need to conduct identity verification and inspection of the entire ship, please put away your valuables."
"Repeat..."
The staff in the cabin looked at each other, seemingly worried. .
The cabin was opened, and the inspection team was already in place. There were five people in total, carrying various instruments, metal detectors, particle resonators, sonic radiation equipment...
"Hello everyone, Houston Star Port, No. 142 The inspection team is at your service. I am the captain - Xu Heng." He briefly introduced himself and then smiled:
"Please go down below for identity verification. After the inspection is completed, you can put your luggage and so on. Take your things with you." "Captain Xu." A middle-aged man dressed as a captain came forward with a dark skin and said with a smile, "Can you wait a moment? The person to pick us up hasn't arrived yet."
< br>
Xu Heng couldn't help but frown, and said more rudely: "What does it have to do with the identity verification that the person who picked you up hasn't arrived yet? Go down and wait."
"This..." The captain looked ugly, glanced vaguely in a certain direction, and whispered: "Captain Xu, I have already said hello..."
"What are you saying hello? Who are you saying hello to?" Xu Heng frowned. , said loudly: "What do you mean by that?"
The captain cursed in his heart, and when he was hesitating, he heard a faint sound coming from outside the cabin.
"It's this ship, it seems to be this ship..." As the voice approached, a stranger walked up, and both sides looked at him at the same time.
"Xu, Xu...Xu Heng?" The person who came was naturally Li Ming. He recalled for a while and shouted uncertainly.
"It's me." Xu Heng frowned slightly, but heard the other party say: "This ship enjoys privilege No. 9. According to the regulations, it should be inspected more carefully."
"Privilege No. 9?" Xu Heng thought in his mind He jumped and stared at the person in front of him. He was very strange and had never seen it before, but he still smiled and said: "I understand, don't worry, you must check carefully."
Then he commanded his men: "You guys A few of them, take these crew members for a cup of tea."
The men understood, "Yes, captain."
Seeing this scene, the captain's expression finally relaxed and he nodded imperceptibly. , and then walked out one after another.
He and Xu Heng were the only two people left in the cabin. The other party hesitated and said: "You are..."
"Don't worry about who I am. Didn't the boss tell you?" Li Ming said casually.
"I said it, I said it." Xu Heng nodded hurriedly, "According to the process, the testing time should be no less than half an hour."
"Well, just follow the process." Li Ming nodded, "You stay here for a while, I'll go inside and take a look."
"Okay, okay." Xu Heng nodded repeatedly and found a place to sit down casually. While killing time, he felt Speculating.
Li Ming glanced at him, quickly came to the cockpit, found the main panel, pulled out a connecting cable, took out the smart terminal, and started to obtain the highest authority.
Li Ming operated a series of data pop-up windows and a progress window popped up, but the speed was very slow. He frowned slightly, "Such a powerful firewall?"
Him Somewhat surprisingly, this spaceship looked shabby, but its internal configuration was quite good.
After thinking about it, he touched the smart terminal with his finger and activated the [Computing Power Terminal] capability, turning it into a server array to provide computing power support. His body began to feel hot quickly.
However, the progress bar also began to climb rapidly, several times faster.
It took him twelve full minutes to fully obtain high-level permissions on this seemingly dilapidated spacecraft.
The old process is to first pull the surveillance video, then pull the voyage log, and at the same time open the internal drawings, and finally lock the lower cabin.
"A large amount of interstellar precious metals, I want to see how big it is." The file was still being transmitted, and Li Ming did not waste time and went to the lower cabin.
I just sat down on the creaking metal stairs, lifted the black velvet covering it, and saw four alloy boxes neatly stacked on top of each other.
Taking out the Prismatic Ion Sword, he hesitated for a moment, looked around and found that these boxes had no locks at all.
"Yes, it doesn't matter whether it's locked or not." He thought for a moment, put away the ion sword, and opened one of the boxes. What appeared in front of him were neatly arranged black metal blocks.
"Black?" Li Ming raised his eyebrows slightly, took out a piece, and looked carefully to see why it looked so special.
I then searched the Star Network again, but there was no corresponding information.
There are probably only two possibilities for things that cannot be found on StarNet, either they have never appeared, or they have been blocked.
He prefers the second one.
"This is bullshit interstellar precious metal." Li Ming's face darkened.
A civilization like Blue Star is completely unqualified to block any information in the Star Network. It must be done by the Etlan civilization.
Obviously, Huo Torch didn't tell the truth to Chen Yan. This thing is definitely not ordinary.
He tried to extract it, and he was indeed able to extract metal energy, and the average content was not low.
Soon, he finished absorbing this black metal block, which contained close to a thousand points of metal energy, which didn't seem like much.
But he looked through it and found that there were more than 300 pieces in this box, which added up to more than 300,000 metal energy.
The four boxes combined probably contain no less than 1.2 million metal energy.
After a little calculation, Li Ming's heart was pounding.
The treasures in the underground laboratory are waiting for food. With such a large amount of metal energy in front of you, you would be a fool not to take it.
"I'm determined to eat it today, no one can come." Li Ming was gearing up, and when he was about to take action, he heard Xu Heng calling him.
"What's wrong?" He came up from below and saw Xu Heng's anxious face, "I'm sorry, something big happened."
"A Serra man died in this star port. It is said that he was not an ordinary person. , the entire starport has been sealed off, and all the ships and people who have entered the port must stay here."
"A Serra person died?" Li Ming expressed surprise.
"Yes." Xu Heng was quite uneasy. After all, he was practicing favoritism and cheating. The longer the delay, the more trouble he would have. If he was found out, the boss might be fine, but he would be finished.
"Where were the people in the cabin taken?" Li Ming asked.
"The review hall should still be in the review room. Under the current circumstances, it should stay there until it is determined that there is no problem." Xu Heng explained, as if to appease Li Ming, but also to appease himself:
"However, their entry into the port was too late and has nothing to do with the death of the Nasela people. It shouldn't be a big problem, but they will have to stay for a few hours."
"Oh. , I understand, then go and do your work, if something like this happens, there should be help," Li Ming thought for a moment and said to him.
"This..." Xu Heng hesitated. He was still afraid that something would be wrong with the spacecraft because of this incident.
"Don't worry, I will stay here. If something happens, you will not be the most troublesome." Li Ming reassured, and Xu Heng breathed a sigh of relief and left in a hurry.
"This is just right. The longer you delay, the better." Li Ming grinned, thought for a while, opened the smart terminal again, and found Chen Jinglong.
"Dean, a Serra man died in this star port?" Although he didn't notice Chen Jinglong just now, he knew that the other party must also be in this star port.
"Well, Sein died here." Chen Jinglong responded quickly.
After waiting for a moment, Li Ming typed a line calmly: "What!? Saiin is dead?"
"What's going on? How could he die here?"
< br>
"I don't know, I'm still checking. How are you doing there?" Chen Jinglong asked.
