Volume 3 Interstellar Expedition Chapter 33 Exploring the Wormhole 2

"Cowman? Yes! Quiant saw Funnick's motives at a glance.

"Looks like we're looking into the right place. You helped him apply for a freelance eligibility. ”

"Yes, I don't have a housekeeper in my house, and this cow is more clever. What's wrong, he has a problem? ”

"According to my research, when he was a slave in the mines, more than 500 orcs who claimed to be mining robbers were killed. In addition, the mine overseer and the two guards escorting the orc were also killed, and we have every reason to suspect that this cow is not ordinary. ”

"Oh. He was the one who killed him. ”

Quiante's straightforward admission completely disrupted Fournick's pre-prepared questioning routine.

"Can you tell me why?"

"It seems that your Light Guardians don't know much about extragalactic stories. It's okay, I'll tell you slowly. ”

"Can I record it?" In the battleship, it is not allowed to record without the unity of the captain, and from the time of boarding, Fornik's recorder has been turned off.

"No problem. But only in this paragraph. ”

"I have a relationship with this cowman, to be exact, this cowman has saved the whole of Carmon. Mai Lifen can also witness. More than 20 years ago, when we first occupied the antimatter planet, we fell for the tricks of the Blue Domain. At that time, the frigate ship full of scientists was at risk of explosion, and the cow used one of its horns and a pair of skins to save the entire Carmon science team. Therefore, the leader of energy and materials science, the Sage of Eliver, gave this bull a new weapon he had researched, an axe. Later, the cattle were appointed as the mine manager of the eighth mining area, and then the mine manager's subordinates rebelled, and the cattle people were forced to take responsibility and be reduced to slavery. During this time, the oxman kept the axe into a belt to tie it, and an accident exposed the true purpose of the axe, causing the overseer to blush. This also explains the death of the more than 500 orcs, the overseer wanted an axe and designed to snatch but never hit. Speaking of which, 500 hit one, never beaten, and were counter-killed, isn't it guilty, right? ”

Funnick had also carefully observed the wounds of the orcs underground, and Qiqi's severed body was not something that ordinary knives and axes could do, so it seemed that Quiante's explanation was more credible.

"What about the overseers and guards?"

"The overseer has a motive, he did such a big thing, how could he let the guards take the cattle away casually. You can check the points, the overseer gave the guard 5,000 points, and the guard promised the overseer not to report it, which gave the overseer time to destroy the body. But he never thought that this was seen through by the guards in advance, and a jade stone was burned. ”

"What about the cowman, who survived so coincidentally?"

"Brother, that thing in his waist is the highest technology of our civilization, it's not difficult to save a cow."

"You saved him?"

"To be exact, my men picked up this treasure. This bull man, very smart, I admit to being a bit selfish, it just so happens that he is full of points, you know, it is actually difficult to find a good housekeeper. ”

"It's also your people who interfere with our investigation?"

"Oh, I have to apologize to you, go back and tell Pinault that I will visit you in person when I have time. I originally wanted to make a big thing a small thing, so I sent this group of subordinates over, these soldiers only know how to carry out tasks, even if they see you, they won't do too much flexibility. That's why there's so much friction. If I had been there, I would have been able to make it clear. ”

The motivation, logic, and results are all self-consistent, and Quiant is confident and discerning, so that the whole incident is not leaky. This made Funnick feel that the whole case was chased down, as if the surviving Wujiang was the victim, and the others were to blame.

"Is there anything else you want to ask, sir?" Quiant looked at Funnick, who had lost his train of thought for a moment, and the latter turned off the recorder's recording switch at his signal.

"Now that the matter is so clear, we won't bother with it, thank you Captain for your cooperation."

Although the process of this inquiry was more smooth than Fournick imagined, the result was not completely beyond his expectations. Funnick usually only believes half of the words of such indirect parties, and now, Funnick sifts out this half of the information that can convince him:

Quiant did take in Boundless and made him a steward;

The fact that Wujiang had done great things, and the fact that he had an axe hanging from his waist was also true, and it is logical to use it to explain the motives of the overseers;

The man who plotted against himself in the mining area was indeed sent by Quiante.

This perfectly explains the whole case itself, but it can't explain the other problem of the case: why did Quiant spend so much time to save a housekeeper who was dispensable to him - Queant's family is obviously single with him, what is there to care?

Prayer is the most basic obligation that every low-level orc on the home planet of Carmon should fulfill. Go to church to pray at least once every 10 days, but it's not easy to make an appointment.

In Kamon, the giant nests connected by tunnel branches with a radius of about 300 meters are the main colonies of the Bugmen. Hanes didn't know if it was reasonable to use the word "city" to define a nest, because each giant nest was set up around the central church, which was the highest administrative place, and there were no industrial or commercial places like the Blue Miles City, except for the church, residence, holy spring guard, material collection center, and holy light guard.

Demographics are even more different, and in the Blue Zone, all people have a unified identity: citizens, all of them are different in occupation and not in status. The Carmon is a distinct caste, with four classes: those in power, those who live, those who serve, and those who are enslaved. The four classes of people are solidified in everything from the responsibilities and rights of social roles to the amount of free space and food and water sources. Firmly under the control of the church-centered operating system.

The Kamon people use the structure of the tree to define the entire residential community, each giant nest is like a leaf on the branch, called the "Spirit Leaf City" referred to as a leaf, a tunnel is like a tree branch, the nest at the end of the tunnel is a branch full of branches and leaves, the "Spirit Leaf City" cluster communicated by this tunnel is called the "Holy Branch Area" referred to as the branch, the main trunk attached by several branches is called the "Heavenly Stem", and the main trunk is together with the "root system" of the outer orc settlement layer and the "fertile soil system" composed of the slave orc layer An entrance to the surface of the earth, and all the underground worlds governed by this entrance are called "sacred trees". ”

There are only 200,000 residences in Yecheng, where the Queante residence is located, and the population of all classes totals more than 1 million, gathered in a nest of about 200 square kilometers densely but not crowded. The whole Yecheng is quiet and terrible, except for the central church.

The intelligence sending device is recovered by Quiante, which makes Dun Dun and Wujiang even more helpless, and the development of events is completely in line with Hanis's wishes. From the front-end intelligence collectors, to the intelligence review personnel, to the intelligence sending department personally taken over by the Dark Moon executives, and then after several turnovers as a cover. Hanes's ingenious identity of Dun Dun designed 4 layers of barriers in front of him that seemed to have nothing to do with him, and then elevated himself from Protestantism. The so-called intelligence delivery path itself is a front to attract attention, and all information is automatically synchronized to Hanis as soon as it is sent.

Hanis, who sat back and relaxed, controlled Dun Dun's body and went to church to pray from time to time. This made the accompanying Wujiang very upset.

On rest days, there are especially many people who pray, and only 30 days in advance can be scheduled for rest day prayers. Similar to the Central Capital Province of the Blue Domain, the political center of Carmon strictly controls the entry and exit of airships, and all means of transportation are held up on the edge of Wu'an Square, which is 5 kilometers away from the central church. The plaza built around the circular shape of the church is flooding with people dressed in four types of clothing from all directions.

All prayer seekers are required to wear different colored robes according to their different classes. Among them, rulers in golden robes and residents in big red robes poured in from the front door side of the church, while attendants in silver-white robes and enslaved people in gray and black robes poured in from the back door side of the church.

Before praying, everyone has to visit the square, and the flow of people will automatically find a partition according to their class after entering the square. The gray and white ground of the entire square is dotted with different colors, and finally from the inside to the outside, it is divided into four rings: gold, red, silver and white, and black.

Tun Dun and Wu Jiang set out at dawn, and when they arrived at the square, the entrance was already crowded with people who had been waiting here all night. The two of them waited until the day was full of light, and then they passed through the narrow detection channel, and people who went to worship were absolutely not allowed to carry metal products, which Hanes had already prepared, and had already turned on the radiation jammer, and at this moment the appearance of the detected Dun Dun was exactly the same as that of ordinary hippopotamuses.

The middle seat was already occupied by the people who came to worship, and the two had to find a place to kneel and bow down beside the aisle. After all the worshippers have entered, it is their turn to enter the worship procession.

With the opening of the two basalt gates in the front and back, accompanied by the "Gulian Sutra" played throughout the square, the high-ranking priest team composed of wormmen and the classic priest team composed of orcs entered the church from the front and back directions wearing colorful robes.

Everyone lowered their heads and mouthed words, and even the worshippers who approached the aisle did not dare to peek at the priest array. Hanes was able to witness this external spectacle through the appearance of the pores of Dunton.

At the head of the procession was a high orc priest, led by an elegant antelope man, with slender legs and feet that made the antelope's unique brisk steps, light and dignified. The gaze is focused and solemn, and the rhythm is uniform and slow. However, when passing through the array where Hanis was, the eyes of this extremely cultivated high priest were obviously wandering, and his steps began to be disordered. The adjusted antelope has a slower pace, and its eyes are still looking directly, but the afterglow is clearly cast on the worshippers.

A person's expression is a true portrayal of the person's heart, especially when faced with a sudden situation. Hanes, of course, did not let go of this subtle change, and quickly imported the image information into the supercomputer, and comprehensively analyzed the information conveyed by the expression, the focal length of the gaze, and the speed of the change of the pace before and after。。。。。。
