Chapter 710: Boring
Leaving the aftermath work to the mechanics in the hangar, Alyssa hurriedly took the elevator to the bridge without even having time to change into protective clothing.
Don't forget, they are still within the killing range of the void and must escape as soon as possible.
Many people are busy in the wide bridge.
If you want to make a starship that is measured in kilometers run, it is not just one or two people pressing a few buttons. There are too many parts that need to be coordinated.
As soon as she arrived on the bridge, a tall shadow approached Alyssa.
"Captain, you are back. How was your harvest?"
This is a tiger man.
It looks like a tiger that has been shaped into a human form, a type of lycanthrope.
The muscles all over his body held up the clothes tightly, as if they were about to explode in the next second.
"I got some data, where are the other recyclers' ships?"
There were three groups of people entering the base at the same time, and the other two groups had already run away before Alyssa and the others came out.
The purpose of asking for the location of the opponent's starship is to prevent them from taking advantage of it. This kind of thing is not uncommon among recyclers.
But the tiger man did not answer immediately, but glanced behind him.
That's like saying, 'Look, I knew it'.
Alyssa was a little confused by the tiger man's actions. Before she could speak, the tiger man said:
"Captain, you must have had enough trouble."
"Carlos, what do you mean?"
The tiger man smiled, but his bloody mouth looked more like a ferocious expression.
"I mean, it's boring. What you're doing is very boring."
"I never owed you wages."
"Yes, there are very few bosses like you, but we want to make a lot of money."
Alyssa narrowed her eyes and quietly reached out to touch the weapon on her waist, but someone moved faster, and a serrated sword was placed across Alyssa's neck.
"It seems that you are not the only one who wants to rebel."
Lowering her head and glancing at the blade, Alyssa remained very calm.
"We don't want to either, but Captain, have you carefully compiled statistics on what you have done since you took office?"
"I'm doing my job well as a recycler."
"What a fart!"
The tiger man said angrily:
"Look at all the garbage you've found. It's either worthless ancient relics or a lot of data that no one wants. If this continues, the entire ship will have to beg for food!"
This is true. Alyssa is different from the previous generation captain, her grandfather. The difference lies in luck. Every time she tries to find a way to make a fortune, but every time she can only find some worthless stuff. The crew members who followed her through life and death did not receive any substantial benefits.
But Alyssa knew that this was not a reason to rebel.
After going through it quickly in her mind, Alyssa said calmly:
"Did someone give you a favor?"
"You name it, we're going to make a lot of money."
Everyone in the bridge watched in shock as someone rebelled. The communicator was about to touch the communicator, but was forced to stop by the helmsman next to him with a gun.
There are people on the bridge who want to rebel, and there are people who don't, and Carlos doesn't yet have full control of the ship.
Alyssa made a judgment in her mind, and at this time the tiger man said:
"Hand over your authority as captain, and we will let you go safely when passing by the space station."
"You know, the machine spirit of this ship will only obey my orders, the captain. If I don't agree, you can't take control of it."
"I also know that once you die, as the deputy captain, I have the next-level authority. Although many functions cannot be used, but... don't force me to go this far." Being able to take away the ship completely is The best, but if that doesn't work, Carlos doesn't mind using the last resort.
"You don't have much time. Don't challenge the tiger man's patience."
The two sides looked at each other in silence. After a moment, Alyssa raised a hand and said:
"In the name of the captain..."
Everyone watched Alyssa say what she said next about transferring the captain's authority, but unexpectedly, she said the next moment:
"Turn off the bridge lights immediately!"
Alyssa has the greatest authority. As soon as she finished speaking, the lights on the bridge were turned off instantly. Except for a little light from the instruments, the entire bridge was dark.
Then a thumping sound and screams were heard, and Carlos roared angrily.
When the lights came back on, Alyssa was gone.
"Hurry up and chase her! We can't let her run away!"
–‐‐——–‐‐——
Alyssa took the elevator down quickly. When it came to fighting, she was not very good at it. At most, she could only use force at the self-defense level. She usually relied on Long when fighting was needed.
It was lucky to escape from the bridge, and it was impossible to recapture the bridge by force.
But there are thousands of people on the ship, and it's impossible for everyone to listen to Carlos without any clue.
There is an emergency command room on the ship when the bridge is destroyed, which is the second bridge. Alyssa is going there to expose Carlos's rebellion and gather people who are willing to be loyal to her in order to take back the ship.
However, getting to the second bridge is not direct and requires passing through many cabins.
At this time, a tiefling who looked like he was wearing riot armor appeared in front of him, and he was a little surprised to see Alyssa.
"Captain? Aren't you supposed to be on the bridge?"
"Carlos has started a rebellion and I need..."
As she was speaking, Alyssa suddenly saw Tiefling's hand touching her waist, and she hurried to the other side of the intersection.
The next moment, a laser beam hit the floor, melting a black mark.
There are even Carlos's people in the security force!
This is normal. If you want to rebel, you must first get rid of the troops responsible for maintaining law and order on the ship. If not all of them are brought over, at least most of them must be brought over.
What's more uncomfortable is that the tieflings are blocking the way to the second bridge, and since the security is under control, there may be an ambush on the second bridge.
Carlos is an old man who has held an important position on the bridge when Grandpa Alyssa was still alive. It is impossible for him to not know about the second bridge.
There was no other way, Alyssa could only quickly leave the place, jumped up, grabbed a metal pole and slid down like a firefighter on a mission.
Along with the sound of rapid footsteps, several laser beams hit the inner wall of the express lane, and the sparks almost narrowed Alyssa's eyes.
Since we can't go to the second bridge, we can only go to the hangar.
When on a mission, the hangar is the busiest. There are not only a large number of technicians there, but also broadcasting equipment.
Alyssa ran quickly in the passage and got into the elevator again.
You may encounter people with Carlos in the passage, but the machine spirit of this ship is loyal to Alyssa, so the elevator is safer than taking the stairs.
All the way down, Alyssa returned to the hangar. When the elevator door opened, she rushed out.
She was about to shout loudly and ask the technicians to prepare the broadcasting equipment, but when Alyssa ran to the hangar, she was dumbfounded.
The hangar was full of people when I came back just now, but now there is no one left.
The broadcast in the hangar announced, 'All hangar staff will go to the disinfection room immediately. There may be an unknown virus on board, and disinfection procedures will be carried out immediately.'
Silon had prepared the disinfection strategy before, but he didn't expect to trick Alyssa at this time.
While Alyssa was lying in bed, the elevator on the other side opened, and a security team wearing riot armor and holding energy weapons rushed out and immediately opened fire on Alyssa.
