Chapter 492: Back to the Black Cauldron (6k Non-stop)
"Master, this is a merchant ship, the hold is full of goods, most of them are metal minerals, of which volcanic red steel ore is the mainstay, roughly estimated to be about twenty tons, and about thirty tons of processed semi-finished alloy steel"
Purely by weight, these metal ores are nothing, but they are valuable because volcanic red steel is a relatively rare metal, which is difficult to mine and has few ore sources.
The Mullin family happens to control several volcanic red steel source planets, which can be regarded as the main source of income for the Mullin family.
Mo Ye walked to the cargo hold and saw a red metal mine, the temperature was very high, as if he was inside a volcano, and large pieces of sweat were dripping.
Mo Ye casually loaded some of it into the space ring and said to Xiao Qi, "Inform Luo Haifeng to prepare for the docking of the spaceship and load all these things on the Egg Cake."
Anyway, the feud has already been settled, so it is difficult to return the goods, of course, it is to take it for yourself, and just go to the free trade center to dispose of it.
The Egg Cake slowly approached the battleship and cargo ship in one.
The crew on the battleship ran and died, and the rest became prisoners, not everyone was willing to shed their blood for the boss, and the crew who surrendered was not nothing.
"The docking system is activated, ready to open the hatch"
Under the control of the crew, the battleship opened a black metal passage to connect with the empty cabin of the Egg Cake, the two hatches opened to complete the docking, and the octopus machine QÌ people began to get busy, transferring all the cargo on the battleship to the cargo hold of the Egg Cake.
Looking at the busy machine and listening to the value estimated by Xiao Qi in his ears, Mo Ye really felt that robbery was really a shortcut to getting rich. No wonder interstellar pirates are prevalent, the temptation of such huge profits is too great.
Luo Meizi and 11, who had weak legs and weak feet and were injured, had been carried back to the egg cake by the machine.
In addition to Mo Ye in the main control room of the battleship, there was also Yan An, who walked along the passage just now,
"Then the master and servant have both run away?"
"One died, one ran away"
"Corey Mullin has fled. Judging by the teleportation distance of the spatial directional teleporter and the composition of the caravan, the other party should have a frigate nearby."
Only this battleship and the frigate on the side surrounded the Omelette and it seemed that the other one was hiding relatively far away.
"Whatever, I definitely can't catch up now"
"What about the one next to it?"
Xiao Qi interrupted the conversation between Mo Ye and Yan An, and suddenly said, "Master, Corey Mullin activated the battleship's self-destruct terminal before leaving, and it will explode in thirty seconds."
Mo Ye: "Such an important thing, Xiao Qi, you actually said it now?"
Mo Ye dragged Yan An's front foot and teleported back to the Egg Cake, and the Mullin family's battleship exploded and scattered in space, and the frigate that had been waiting by the side because of the cut off communication did not understand what was going on. That's when I realized that something was wrong.
They also thought that their young master died with the explosion of the spaceship, the captain and his subordinates looked at each other a few times, they knew that they would definitely not be able to please the Mullin family at this time, and they might even affect their families, abandoning the ship and going to the end of the world is the best choice to live, but then I am afraid that they will never have the opportunity to see their families again.
"Captain, we're going to die when we go back"
"If we can't go back, instead"
Without further hesitation, several people from the frigate drove the corvette to rush to the wreckage of the battleship's explosion and started the self-destruct procedure. The escape pod has gone far.
For these people, they are too lazy to chase after Mo Ye, anyway, the next days will not stop
Koremulin teleported to another frigate in the distance, the blood on his neck burst out like a fountain, he covered his neck with one hand, and tried to stand up and return to the medical cabin for treatment, but who would have thought that he was kicked to the ground,
Corey said incredulously, "Captain Ron, what are you doing?"
Ron, the captain of frigate two, did not respond to him, and the next moment Corey only felt that his feet were restrained, and he could not move at all. That's when he noticed what appeared to be teleported into a boxy isolation box.
Corey pressed his bleeding neck with one hand. The other hand slapped on the wall of the isolation box, "I need treatment, take me to the medical cabin"
Ron didn't seem to hear Corry's call. Closed the top cover of the isolation box and slowly walked towards Kerui.
"What the hell are you going to do? Don't you want to live?" the fear of death took over Corey's mind.
"Master Corey, I'm sorry," Ron sat on the couch not far away, waiting quietly. He didn't have to do anything, just be patient.
"I have a biochip in my body, my grandfather must know where I am, you won't end well, the dog who betrayed the family is the end you know yourself"
Ron shook his head and smiled, "Young Master Corry, I don't obey you, but I didn't betray the family" After a pause, he continued, "You don't need to worry about me, the communication signal was cut off, coupled with the effect of the isolation box, the signal of the biochip cannot be transmitted, and then you will be killed by that group of explorers of the primary civilization star field, what does it have to do with me"
"Damn, you let me out, who did you turn to, my second uncle or my third uncle?
Corey gradually stopped talking, whether it is a high-level physical artist or an alien person, no matter how powerful it is, it is still a human being, and the one who can live without blood and blood is called a dry corpse!
The blood in his neck kept gushing out, but Corey couldn't do anything, his face became more and more pale, his body became more and more cold, and after two days of persistence, Corey who had lost too much blood finally died in the isolation box.
Ron shrugged and sent the communication
Back on the Omelet, Ink Night locked up the still alive Long Tongue and several people in different labyrinth rooms, maybe it would be useful.
After emptying the ship's cargo and energy bays, the Egg Cake left the incident site and continued to the Free Trade Center.
The Mu Lin family, which was far away in the central star field of the Weilan Empire, broke out in great turmoil at this time.
For a large family, the descendants of the descendants are the key protection objects, and a biochip is installed in Kerui's body, and his physical condition will be fed back to the main control system of the family base at any time. Now that the biochip has stopped feeding, this can only happen in two situations, Jerry dies, or the biochip is taken out. Either would mean that the eldest grandson of the Mullin family was in danger.
"Patriarch, the last time Young Master Corey sent back a communication was a day ago, he found a suspicious person on the way to the Free Trade Center, and the specific details were not mentioned by Young Master"
The old patriarch of Mullin squeezed the armrest of the seat tightly, and the green scriptures were revealed, Corey was his favorite grandson, and he was also the best heir, he wanted to sit in the position of the patriarch for a long time and cultivate this grandson well, and he would be the heir in the future, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen.
The family chamber was full of people. On the surface, they all look sad and angry, but in reality, it is not certain.
Several sons of the old patriarch were very happy about this, and a major obstacle preventing them from becoming patriarchs was gone, how could they not be happy.
Their eldest brother is just this only child, even if he wants to have it now, whether the child can grow up smoothly has to ask them if they agree.
"Father, leave this matter to me, I will definitely catch my nephew's murderer"
"I'm afraid that the murderer of my nephew has nothing to do with the mysterious man in black that we recently tracked down"
The old patriarch of Mullin glared at his two sons, and they all shut up for me" and then said to the people behind him, "Check, let me go and find out immediately, who made the attack on Corey." What happened then, what about the two frigates?"
"One has also blown up, and Two has just been searched nearby by family communications"
"No matter who it is, if you hurt my grandson, I must pay the price for the other party" The armrest of the alloy seat finally couldn't stop his old man's vigorous crushing into slag "Immediately send someone to the Free Trade Center and carefully ask the No. 2 frigate, what happened at that time, you must find out the person for me"
"Yes, Patriarch"
News of Corey Mullin's death quickly spread through the high society of the Weilan Empire. Xiao Qi also received the news.
"The hosts. The eldest young master of the Mullin family died, dying of excessive blood loss due to a carotid artery injury in his neck."
Mo Ye blinked suspiciously. "Dead?" At that time, the man had obviously teleported away through the Guò spatial director, and although he was attacked by 11 and suffered a wound in the neck, the wound was not fatal in a short time. As long as you return to the treatment cabin to stop bleeding and heal the wound, you can sleep and jump around immediately, how can you die, this is not scientific!
"The cause of death?"
"The Mullin family has not been released to the public, claiming that the investigation is still underway, and the body has not been found, but I found out that the Mullin family has secretly dispatched armed forces to leave the family station"
It's weird.
Mo Ye remembered the few people locked in the labyrinth room, and got up and went to the labyrinth room where they were.
Long Tongue lay half-dead on the floor, slightly tilted his head to see the sudden appearance of Mo Ye, and unconsciously trembled his body.
Well, Your Excellency Mage has become synonymous with fear!
In the past few days, Yan An has been in charge of interrogating the long-tongued guards, and he has also learned a lot of secrets about the Mu Lin family, such as adulteration of the Chiyan mine, sibling disputes, and so on.
Mo Ye always felt that something important and unreasonable, such as the frigate that did not appear from beginning to end, and the death of Corey Mullin.
Under the lingering shackles of blood-colored thorns, Long Tongue's psychological defense finally collapsed on all fronts, and he told all the information he knew about the Mulin family, and he couldn't wait to tell the old patriarch of the Mulin family how old he was, not to live, but to die.
Now it was a torture more painful than death for him, the tingling of his soul, the people he had brutally killed appeared in front of his eyes one by one and grinned at him, the pain he couldn't bear.
"I've said everything I know, please, kill me, please"
"Kill me"
Xiao Hei licked his lips and threw himself into the body of the long tongue at the suggestion of Mo Ye, and had a beautiful meal.
"I didn't expect him to be the secret flag sent by the fourth young master of the Mullin family to Ke Rui"
"The strife within the extended family has always been unforgiving"
Mo Ye didn't expect that a casual interrogation would actually get unexpected information, and the Mullin family was really connected to the mastermind behind the Black Death virus.
To be precise, it is the fourth young master of the Mu Lin family, this fourth young master who is usually inconspicuous and not taken seriously, has actually done so many things in secret.
Mo Ye and Yan An listened to the long tongue's story, as if they were listening to a story, Nima. This is simply a classic family feud, the biological mother of the fourth young master Klott is a lowly dancer, his birth is not valued, unwilling to be just a wealthy concubine, he secretly planned many plans to annex the Mullin family.
Mo Ye helped him a lot. His annoying and bad-tempered brother fell off the horse and was locked up, and his most hated nephew lost his life again, all because Mo Ye and a few people were the pushers, and they inadvertently became big helpers.
Not only that, but he also let Mo Ye and a few people carry the black cauldron, Corey Mullin was obviously killed by his fourth uncle, and the other battleship that was lurking at that time may also have been arranged by the fourth uncle to do tricks.
"Fourth Young Master of the Mullin family, Klot, do you think that the person he described in the mouth of the long tongue is the one who planned the Black Death virus?"
"Quite possibly. The man's features are so similar to what Olitz describes."
"Hehe, he's uniting others to cheat his own family"
"Xiao Qi, you check this Klott Mullin, I want his details"
"No problem host"
Your Excellency Mage doesn't casually carry the cauldron for others
After a multi-day voyage, the Omelet finally arrived at its destination, the Free Trade Center.
The free trade center is the largest trading star area in the Weilan Empire, nominally belonging to the Weilan Empire, but in fact it is equivalent to a special economic zone, the empire is weakly controlled, various forces are infiltrating, and it is basically in a state of autonomy, and the empire has tried to nationalize it many times without success. The distribution of power is quite complicated, but it is the favorite of merchants.
The Free Trade Center is made up of seven planets, and every 70 years these seven planets are connected in a straight line due to the orbit of the planets, which are also called the Seven Stars alignment.
The bustling free trade center does not have as many rules as other planets landing, all registered merchant ships can land directly, and the spaceship starship that goes to the first time only needs to do a simple registration to be released, but it can only dock at the trading ports of each planet.
The merchant fleet came and went very lively, in stark contrast to the previous endless loneliness of space.
"Wow. It's the first time I've seen so many fleets coming and going."
"Me too"
"It's beautiful"
Several children of the Chen family, who had never left Zhulin Village, lay on the viewing window and stared wide-eyed. The mouth has not been closed since it was opened.
The Egg Cake chose to land on Planet Seven Star One.
The reason why the Egg Cake dared to appear in the free trade center after the news of the death of the eldest grandson of the Mullin family was made public, was because they knew that the Mullin family would never make the murderer public. Although, in a certain way, they weren't.
The Mullin family had already established the connection between the mysterious man in black and the Egg Cake, but it was really a member of the mission from the Starfield of the Elementary Civilization. The old patriarch of Mullin was ten thousand disbelief, especially after receiving the report from Ron, the captain of the second frigate, and the doubts and speculations deepened.
In his opinion, there must be other interests in this, and all forces are paying attention to this matter, and they may be startled, or even cheapened others, so the Mullin family has always been silent about this matter, and secretly sent people to the free trade center to search for Mo Ye and others.
Although the death of the eldest grandson made the old patriarch of Mullin sad, the family has always come first, and the interests of the family must be taken as the main premise, and the rash opening of the murderer has caused speculation from all sides, which is not a good thing for the current Mullin family
The reason why the free trade center is so prosperous is inseparable from the word freedom, as long as you can afford to pay and find a way to buy and sell anything here, citizenship is no exception.
As Chen Zhongshou and his wife, who have disappeared in civilized society for decades, and several children who have never been out of the outside world, of course, it is the most important thing to regain a legal identity, Olitz's mother and son are the same, Nanyuan City has been destroyed, if they still keep their previous citizen card to live, sooner or later they will be discovered, and then it will be unclear, and it is very necessary to change their face and start again.
After a few people came out of the airport, they looked like they were looking at the hope, and others knew at a glance that this group of people was coming for the first time, looking at the appearance, dressing, and temperament, the cliff was a big customer, or it could be said that it was a fat lamb to be slaughtered.
As soon as he left the airport, a young man with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks approached, smiling and revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth like corn kernels, "It's the first time you guys have come to the free trade center." My name is Beta, do you need a guide, I can provide you with the best service, guarantee good quality and low price."
There are quite a few such soliciting guides outside the airport gate, although there is an intelligent navigation system. But that thing in other places is good in the free trade center is not necessarily, the official unmarked black market, underground auctions, casinos, super friendship services, etc., these can not be found in the official intelligent navigation, which requires the guidance of locals who know the situation, and those who have the way can also get good discounts.
Because of the particularity here, the career development of the guide is booming. Of course, the competition between them is also very fierce, and most of them are organized and backed.
Beda belongs to one of the local snake organizations, which dominates new customers, takes customers to designated stores to spend and receives large kickbacks, and sometimes even makes a cameo appearance as a thief, stealing customers' belongings, or reselling customer information, all in all, it is not a good product.
The reason why such an organization can survive for a long time is naturally because there are people on it, as long as they don't provoke themselves, everyone is turning a blind eye, as for the customers who are fooled and suffering, of course, they can fight back, and if they are incapable, they can only be dumb and can't say it. Knocked out teeth and swallowed blood.
Mo Ye's cute little lambs were targeted as soon as they landed, and in their opinion, this kind of appearance of a rich child going out to see the world is simply synonymous with the stupidity of many rich people, and the words 'Come and pit me' are engraved on their faces.
Mo Ye didn't care about this person, he looked really unsightly, and he calculated his bad intentions, raised his eyes and looked around, this place is indeed different from most planets.
At least there is no suspended layer that obscures the sky, and although there are still suspended structures in the sky, they are scattered, all of which have been accurately calculated. Does not block the sunlight below. The suspension lane is made of transparent material, giving people a sense of transparency.
"Momo. We do need a guide, but it seems that no one will dare to steal business with this yellow-toothed monkey until he leaves."
Chen Zhongshou once came to the free trade center once decades ago, and he was relatively clear about the rules here: "There are rules here. Those who rob business will be taught a lesson, and unless we take the initiative to find them, no one will come to rob them."
"I see"
"Then let's go, find someone else"
Unexpectedly, Mo Ye and a few people ran into a wall one after another, and those guides left unintentionally when they saw them approaching, pretending that they didn't hear anything, anyway, no one paid attention to them.
Beda walked over again, "A few guests, they're busy, you might as well listen to me and follow me."
Mo Ye raised his eyebrows, this is when he meets a bully and wants to buy and sell.
"What's the matter with these people, they don't want to do business yet?"
"Fear of retaliation"
"It's pinching us like soft buns"
His Excellency the Mage walked straight towards a dark-skinned young man, "Are you the guide?"
"Yes"
"Take us around, and give you twice as much as usual"
The swarthy boy was a little moved, but the yellow-toothed monkey jumped out and stood aside and said coolly, "Kaluza, you'd better think clearly before answering, don't when the time comes"
Luo Meizi couldn't bear to kick sideways, and the yellow-toothed monkey flew out eight zhang away before she finished speaking, lying on the ground for a long time and couldn't get up.
In an instant, the air was a little fresher!
Mo Ye said to the swarthy boy again, "Can you be our guide now?"
The swarthy boy glanced at Beida, who had fallen to the ground, and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes"
"Let's go, then"
"What kind of hotel do you want to stay in for the first time?"
"I'll talk about the place where I live later, take us to do this place first" Chen Zhongshou pointed to the back of his hand, and Kanuza understood.
"No problem, you guys come with me"
Led by Canuzha, the group came to a small alley and entered the basement, where a large iron gate that looked old appeared in front of everyone.
Kanuza knocked regularly on the door, and a video screen appeared on the iron door.
"Six Supplementary Office Citizen Cards"
"Fill in the information request"
Chen Zhongshou and others entered in the identity information they had previously created, and several of them either did not have citizenship or had already been revoked, so it was not particularly difficult to reapply for it.
Zanuka turned to Mo Ye and said, "Please wait a while, the new citizen card will be ready in about an hour, we can go to other places first and then pick up the goods."
"Good"
"I need to buy a batch of plant raw materials, where can I buy the right ones"
"For plants, it's best to go to the Flor Market, which has the most complete range of plant varieties, and most of the plant materials can be purchased there."
