Chapter 1053 The door is locked
The anti-aircraft cannons on starships are similar to the anti-aircraft cannons on colonial satellites. They require people to sit in the gun emplacement and manually set the target for the machine soul.
Therefore, near the outer armor of the starship, there are a lot of similar anti-aircraft gun control rooms.
Alyssa originally planned to go to the second bridge, but after much hesitation, she decided to play it safe. It would be more reliable to let Li Chengqi seize control of the entire starship first.
There are many terminals on the starship. These terminals can control nearby equipment. For example, the cabin door airlock can be opened with a nearby terminal or with the manual switch on the door panel.
But the bridge can control all equipment, even the opening and closing of a certain hatch, and has the highest control authority.
In short, it’s connected.
A major feature of the control panel is that it does not require permissions. As long as it is installed on any networked terminal, it can instantly infect all the devices on the line like a virus, and all of them will be under Li Chengqi's control.
The second bridge is still some distance away. Although it is not far, there is no guarantee that something will happen.
The starship in her memory was not as deserted as it is now. Alyssa felt vaguely that something was wrong, so it was better to play it safe.
So the three of them immediately turned around and moved to the anti-aircraft gun control room.
The gunnery chief will designate a defensive star zone for the gunners, which is of course connected to the bridge.
However, after entering, the three of them were a little surprised. There was no one in the anti-aircraft gun control room.
Unless the starship plans to stay in a certain port for a long time, the gun positions must be manned for a long time. After all, the starship is too big and has too many anti-aircraft guns. It is too late to send people to the gun positions when temporarily engaging the enemy.
It's not an illusion, that bad feeling is getting clearer and clearer.
This made Alyssa a little irritated, but she still had to continue.
He took out the startup disk from the bag and placed it on the control room terminal that turned on the power. After a few seconds, the words 'Creation Machine. Divine Crystal Initialization Completed' appeared on the screen.
Alyssa put away the boot disk, raised her hand and said to the personal terminal: "Are you coming in?"
"Don't say it so obscenely, I can indeed control this terminal."
"..."
Alyssa opened her mouth, decided not to discuss this issue with Li Chengqi, and quickly asked: "Open the starship's self-test program, I want to see what the fake Carlos did to me during this period. What did Starship do?”
"Wait a minute, I'm looking for the bridge."
Li Chengqi's control requires pressing the TAB key to switch between different terminals. Just like the time he invaded the Molybdenum Building, it is impossible to directly enter the core with one click.
"A little weird."
"What? What's wrong?"
"I can't find the bridge."
It stands to reason that as long as it is installed, all networked magic machines will obey Li Chengqi's control, but the strange thing is that Li Chengqi pressed the TAB key and switched around, and actually returned to the anti-aircraft gun control room where Alyssa was.
"This is impossible, unless the anti-aircraft gun control room is not connected to the bridge."
"If you don't believe it, you can find it yourself, and I will project the screen to you."
Then the perspective that Li Chengqi saw appeared on the personal terminal. Alyssa looked around and found the bridge indeed.
This is very strange.
The uneasy feeling became more and more serious, and Alyssa suddenly realized that her actions must have been discovered, right?
Even if he was discovered, could it be that Li Chengqi was on guard against his abilities, so he disconnected in advance?
This idea is a bit ridiculous. After all, everyone who knows Alyssa's actions is on the Swan, and everyone who knows Li Chengqi's ability is also on the Swan. The fake Carlos cannot know all this in advance.
If the secret was not leaked from one's own side, then there was another source of intelligence. Just when they thought of this, Long, who was standing by the door, suddenly patted Alyssa on the shoulder. Soon, the three of them heard footsteps approaching in the corridor.
Without any time to think, Alyssa and Long immediately hid by the door.
Immediately afterwards, the automatic door of the anti-aircraft gun control room was opened.
"Captain? Why are you here?"
The people outside the door should be members of the security forces, the same people who first rebelled with the fake Carlos.
But they didn't seem to be able to tell the difference between the real Carlos and the fake Carlos.
"I'll come and take a look, you can continue your work."
Carlos responded with a normal expression, at least there was no flaw in his expression.
This is why Carlos is added to the infiltration team. If he encounters an enemy along the way, he can pretend to be the fake Carlos.
——It’s really a bit convoluted.
The people outside the door looked at each other and saluted:
"As you command, Captain."
They had no intention of entering the anti-aircraft gun control room, and then continued patrolling along the corridor without stopping.
After a few people walked away, Alyssa let out a sigh of relief.
The fake Carlos' acting skills can fool even the people who are most familiar with him on the bridge, such as Alyssa and Long, and the real Carlos can also fool the fake Carlos' subordinates. It can't be seen from his appearance or tone. Any clue.
But at this time Li Chengqi said:
"You'd better get down quickly. Those people have noticed that Carlos is not the Carlos on this starship."
As soon as Li Chengqi finished speaking, the three of them heard the sound of metal friction. They hurriedly ran out of the air defense gun control room and saw that the huge fire door in the corridor had been lowered, and now the three of them were blocked near this cabin. .
Just now, one of the people in the security force had a character panel that said 'Mimetic Servant'. Although Li Chengqi didn't quite understand what it was, it was obvious that this thing should be the same as the fake Carlos.
If the dummies can recognize each other, they will naturally be able to tell that the Carlos in front of them is the real one and not the fake Carlos on the bridge.
Naturally, the infiltration behavior of Alyssa and the three of them must have been discovered.
At the same time, the fan on the ceiling began to rotate at high speed, as if the air was being sucked out from above.
From the release holes at the bottom of both sides of the corridor, something silvery white like dust was sprayed out.
"It's fire extinguishing smoke. It seems to be suffocating us here!"
Starships are built in a modular manner, and there may be thousands of modules spliced together on one floor.
During combat, if a certain module is hit and catches fire, the standard procedure is to block the module, then evacuate the air and inject fire-extinguishing dust.
Since the void is a vacuum environment, as long as the internal oxygen is removed and the combustion accelerant is lost, the flame will naturally not burn. This is the most commonly used method of extinguishing fires on starships.
But this efficient fire-fighting method will put Alyssa and Carlos into a state of hypoxia and suffocation within three minutes.
Alyssa hurried to open the fire door, but the manual control was locked.
"No, I can't control it from this side, it should be locked from the other side!"
As mentioned earlier, Li Chengqi did not find the bridge. The terminal in this area should have been disconnected from other parts. Naturally, it was locked from the other side without contact, and Li Chengqi could not open the door on the other side.
