Chapter 150 A treasure trove more precious than the planet?
The concept of holy relics is very broad.
Different institutions in the empire have different definitions of holy relics.
They may be lost ancient technologies, weapons left behind by certain powerful beings, or even washbasins used by emperors, living saints, etc.
But something worthy of being secretly hidden by the fleet commander must be good.
This fleet collected tithes from nine planets.
While collecting taxes, the fleet commander also followed the instructions of His Majesty the Emperor and completely plundered the nobles on those planets and took away their treasures.
For safety, those treasures are kept on the giant cruiser.
The most precious treasures were secretly hidden by him, ready to be swallowed by himself.
Among those treasures are holy relics.
The fleet commander did not say where the treasure was hidden.
His only request was to interview the Governor.
Only after meeting the Governor was he willing to reveal the whereabouts of the treasure.
It seems that this guy wants to use those treasures to save his life.
Ron rushed to the interrogation room and saw the embarrassed fleet commander.
The fleet commander burst into tears as soon as he saw him, as if he had suffered some terrible punishment.
"My Lord Governor, as long as you pardon me, I am willing to offer my loyalty to you and tell you the whereabouts of the treasure!"
"Pardon you?"
Ron shook his head:
“What qualifications do you have for pardon.
When you ordered the bombing of the nest to kill me, why didn't you expect such an outcome?
As for loyalty, do you have that? "
This guy looked miserable, but in fact he was not hurt at all.
Before the torture started, he cried and confessed a lot of things, and then even asked for an interview with him on the condition of the treasure. .
Ron even wondered if he had graduated from the Naval Academy.
This fleet commander can almost be regarded as a domestic slave with three surnames.
Who dares to accept his loyalty?
“Don’t you want to get the treasure?
That is something more precious than the planet!”
The fleet commander was a little anxious when he saw that Ron was unwilling to forgive him.
"Of course I want to get the treasure, but what qualifications do you have to put forward the conditions now?
With your character, there is a high probability that you will hide the treasure on your own battleship. Now that the battleship is in my hands, I will look for it slowly. "
Ron glanced at the Inquisition torturer next to him.
They are future judges in training, responsible for torture and interrogation of suspects.
“Continue the execution, increase the intensity, it doesn’t matter even if you die!”
After giving his instructions, he turned around and left.
“Stop, you are not allowed to leave!”
Seeing this, the fleet commander became even more anxious and threatened:
“It’s useless even if you find the treasure house, there is no special password , there is absolutely no possibility of obtaining the treasures"
He told everyone that if they forcefully break the door without a special password, the melting device in the treasure house will be activated and all the treasures will be melted into ashes!
This is the bargaining chip for his survival.
Hearing this, Ron turned around and smiled slightly:
“Thank you for informing me, I have got the news I wanted”
What he wanted to know was Just the approximate location of the treasure house and the conditions inside.
As for the special password, he doesn't need it.
The risk is greater, and who knows if that special password has any other uses.
He would rather let the spirit network crack the treasure house's operating system after finding the location.
Seeing the governor leaving, the fleet commander was completely desperate.
But he resolutely did not reveal anything about the treasure house.
Because that is his only strength.
The fleet commander believed that the governor would come back to find him again, and he would tell the other party the "special password" without reservation.
Soon, the interrogation came to an end and he was imprisoned.
Afterwards, the torturers interrogated other prisoners.
They need more interrogation reports for cross comparison.
On the other side, Ron asked the machine spirit to search the giant cruiser.
It is not an easy task to find a secret room on a giant cruiser that is over ten kilometers long and looks like a small city.
But the fleet commander has already given the answer.
The treasure he secretly hid, then the treasure house must be in a place that is not monitored.
This narrows the search significantly.
Xiao Ling only needs to search the blind spots of the battleship monitoring system.
Soon, Xiaoling found several monitoring blind spots in the battleship.
Ron first sent people to search the blind spot near the bridge, but found nothing.
After that, he sent a search team to search for the blind spot in the bottom of the battleship.
The bottom cabin of the battleship is even more complicated, with dense pipes and complicated cabins like a maze.
Even professional maintenance workers may get lost.
It can be said that the bottom of the battleship is similar to a small hive pipe world.
The mutated creatures or chaotic monsters hiding inside are more complex and diverse.
While searching in the blind spot, the search team unexpectedly found several lost maintenance workers.
They have been contaminated and mutated into mutants.
For this reason, the search team had to execute him on the spot. After that, the search troops eliminated several groups of chaos monsters.
After all, it is a fleet that has been sailing in the universe for a long time. There are too many dirty places on the ship.
According to legend, there are even demons hiding deep in some ships.
It seems that all captured warships will have to undergo comprehensive environmental purification in the future to resolve those hidden dangers.
As the surveillance blind spots gradually decreased, Ron's heart gradually became nervous.
The treasure trove should be hidden in those blind spots.
Or maybe that was a lie made up by the fleet commander to delay time?
Fortunately, the search team found the treasure house in the final blind spot.
……
In front of the treasure house gate.
Ron was wearing a gas mask that could block out odor, and his eye windows showed a scarlet light.
“It’s so hidden...”
Looking at the filthy treasure house door, he felt a little emotional.
This treasure house is disguised as a sewage outlet.
If you don’t search carefully with a purpose, you will never find it.
Tech-priests were busy around the treasury.
They are installing mechanical devices for scanning detection and signal enhancement.
The Thunder Guards and other warriors deal with the mutated creatures and chaotic monsters on the periphery.
Don't let those sudden monsters interfere with the work of the technical priests.
Zi~
When the signal strengthening device surrounded by golden energy was activated, Xiaoling's body temporarily left the host and came here.
"Father, have you missed me?"
The golden energy on the mechanical device trembled slightly, and Xiaoling's voice came from the sound generator.
It greeted Ron warmly.
After all, it has not been so close to its father for a long time.
Xiaoling has been hanging out with Kaul and others for a long time, and his behavior and speech patterns have become more and more like humans.
“Hey, hurry up and crack the internal system of this treasure house for me!”
Ron’s mind is entirely on the treasure house at the moment:
“Pay attention to the heat inside. The melting device, once activated, will destroy the contents inside..."
"Oh~"
Xiao Ling accepted the order and immediately controlled several surrounding mechanical devices to invade the treasure house's system.
This process was a bit long, and everyone waited quietly.
"Father, the treasure house system has been successfully cracked!"
Xiao Ling's happy voice appeared.
Ron woke up with a start. He climbed up from the recliner and looked at the treasure house:
"As expected of a considerate little cotton-padded jacket, has the hot-melt device been completely shut down? Are there any special circumstances?"
After that, Xiaoling reported on the situation of the internal system of the treasure house.
I learned from it that there is no special password for the treasure house, but an activation password.
If Ron chooses to believe the fleet commander, enter the password to open the door.
The moment he opens the door, the extremely high temperature emitted by the hot melt device will completely submerge him.
Few carbon-based organisms can withstand such high temperatures.
Death is inevitable.
This is the fleet commander's last resort for revenge.
Once he realizes that he has no chance of survival, he will make those who covet his treasure pay a heavy price.
As expected, it is not easy for people to reach the top.
The fleet commander's appearance before was probably half staged. He knew that he was bound to die, so he wanted to take Ron with him to be buried with him.
Fortunately, Ron was more cautious and didn't fall for it.
The treasure house door slowly opened.
Ron walked in on a soft carpet made of the fur of some kind of white cat.
After passing through a several-meter-long passage filled with hot melt devices.
He finally entered the treasure house.
It is a well-equipped storage warehouse.
The walls and floors are made of state-of-the-art protective materials to protect the items stored inside from the elements as much as possible.
The various ancient objects in the storage boxes exude a solemn and solemn atmosphere.
The air is still filled with a faint aroma.
It is the flavor accumulated over time, which makes people feel a kind of tranquility and peace of mind.
Ron walked to the deepest glass storage box. Inside was an ancient stone slab engraved with complex words and patterns.
There is a piece of parchment embedded in the middle of the stone slab.
The moment he saw the parchment, he knew what it was.
However, when Ron saw the mark on the lower right corner of the parchment, he immediately exclaimed:
"Good guy, bloody fingerprints, is this thing real?"
