Volume 3 The War of the Insects Chapter 282 Finding Out the Truth (2)
On the bridge, Morningstar meets the herald who has come to inform Morningstar. The herald was a teenager, and at the moment, there was still a deep fear on his face.
Morningstar greeted the boy and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”
"Lord of the Morning Star, it's, it's, it's terrible. It's horrible. The boy hadn't come out of his own little world yet, and Morningstar didn't want him to go to the meeting where he couldn't bear the images, just let the others take care of the child, and he went to the ship with the Shadow Guard.
It was a Tier-class transport ship from the Alliance, and the first time Morningstar stepped on the transport ship, he remembered the captain of the transport, the somewhat obese middle-aged man. Morningstar paid attention to him during the meeting, mainly because the smell of this fat man was really obvious. At that time, Morningstar thought that this guy just didn't pay attention to personal hygiene, after all, anyone will have a next time, so he didn't pay much attention. But now, Morningstar can guess what happened.
This Tyre-class transport ship is much less than the Goddess's Eye, but because of its single function, it is only used as a transport ship, so the internal facilities are relatively simple, and when Morning Star gets off the ferry, it is directly in a huge warehouse.
At this time, there were already many soldiers in the warehouse with loaded guns and ammunition, and their target was naturally not the morning star, but the supply box in the warehouse.
Morning Star looked around and found several wounded soldiers lying on several makeshift marching beds not far away, and the surrounding military doctors were administering first aid to the soldiers. After a brief exchange of words with the captain of the soldier in charge, Morningstar learned that the soldiers had been attacked by the enemy hidden in these supply boxes. Strangely, the enemy hiding in the supply box only attacked the soldiers who approached them, and then hid in the dense box and did not move.
Morningstar walked up to the wounded soldier and found a still conscious one and asked, "What's going on, tell me, I'm Morningstar." ”
The soldier was a little excited when he saw Morning Star, and wanted to sit up but accidentally touched the wound, and after a violent cough, he lay back on the bed weakly, and said, "Lord Morning Star, we are here at the request of General Locke from the Agron Star District to support the Republic's special forces. Our primary duty in the fleet is to protect the safety of these military supplies. An hour ago, during a routine inspection with a few brothers, we heard a strange noise in a few supply boxes, so we approached to check, but who knows, who knows, suddenly two strange people jumped out of it, our weapons have no effect on them at all, as if they don't know the pain, even if they are shot through the body, they will not die. ”
As the soldier spoke, he recalled the scene, and the fear in his eyes made Morning Star a little unbearable, but Morning Star still needed more information from him, so he asked, "Is there a layer of muscle tissue on the surface of those people's bodies that looks like there is no skin to protect them?" ”
The soldier thought for a moment, quickly nodded in affirmation, and added: "Those things seem to have their own life, they shouldn't be the structure of the human body, they are like, just like ......" The soldier kept searching for suitable words to describe it in his mind, but there was no result for a while.
"It's like a strong body?" Morning Star reminds you.
"That's right, that's right, that's it."
Morningstar's words were answered in the affirmative by the soldiers, and it also made Morningstar's heart feel at ease. There is no other possibility, these attackers hiding in the supply boxes must be the Celestial Mandate Sect's dead soldiers, as for why these dead men attacked those who were close to them and did not destroy the ship, Morningstar guessed that this should be a conspiracy of the Mandate of Heaven Sect. Combined with what happened to the Combined Fleet before, Morningstar speculated that these dead soldiers were probably ordered to start attacking at a specific time and place, wanting to complete the attack on the Combined Fleet. It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, and when the first plan of the Heavenly Mandate Sect was running, they met those unknown heroes. These unsung heroes used their lives to provide important information to Morning Star, stillborn this plan of the Mandate of Heaven Sect. And these dead soldiers may have been arranged into the Alliance's forces a long time ago, just waiting for a reasonable time to break out.
Morningstar patted the soldiers on the shoulder, telling the wounded soldiers to recuperate, and told the medical staff to transfer the wounded to the Goddess's Eyes as soon as possible, where there were better medical conditions.
Seeing the medical team transfer the wounded, Morningstar turned around and told the captain of the soldiers to shrink the team and form a defensive circle to avoid casualties caused by the sudden attack of the dead hiding in the supply box, and at the same time sent Renaya back to the Eye of the Goddess to invite Norin Hill, and then Morningstar called a crew member of the transport ship and asked, "What about your captain, it's that fat man, call him, I have something to ask him." ”
Morning Star said this, and the surrounding people realized that such a key person was missing, and they expressed their dissatisfaction. Such a big thing happened on his own ship, but this captain was not there, which is really undeserved.
Morning Star heard the discussion of the people around him, and suddenly remembered that when he received the news earlier, he said that he had found out who the ghost was, but when he looked around, he didn't find the shadow of Salot, so he hurriedly stopped the soldiers who were about to run out, and walked towards the bridge himself.
"Vlasimir, go back and call for help, call all the Phantom Warriors over and guard the ship's warehouse, and by the way, Quinn, call her here and let her take charge of the warehouse
Side. Tell Quinn not only to deal with the dead soldiers in the warehouse, but also to check the entire ship to see if there are any other problems. Walking on the way to the bridge, Morningstar, worried that the soldiers would not be able to handle the problems in the warehouse, told Vlasimir to go back and call Quinn. At the same time, Wendini was also sent by Morning Star to Vasily's ship to inform Vasily to prepare for the outer defense of the fleet.
This matter is full of strangeness, and Morningstar believes that this matter has nothing to do with Locke, and I am afraid that he is also being taken advantage of. After all, the coalition system of government is there, and God knows what the conglomerates and wealthy businessmen who control politics from behind can do for the sake of profit.
Sha Duo beside him was a little worried, gently pulled Chenxing's hand, and said: "Master, you still don't want to be on this ship, in case the other party wants to break the net and directly detonate the ship, then the consequences will be serious." ”
"Huh?" Sha Duo's words made Morning Star's scalp tingle for a while, which Morning Star really hadn't thought about, but it was indeed a threat. Of course, Morningstar was not worried about his own safety, but about the safety of the soldiers and staff on board. Morningstar's first thought was to transfer all these people to other ships, but then he thought of the terrible contagiousness of the Death Plague Virus, and if he did it blindly, I am afraid the results would not be too optimistic.
Stopping, Morningstar thought for a moment, and hurriedly stopped Wendini, who had not yet run far, and ordered: "Tell General Vasily to clear out a battleship, preferably a transport ship, and all the personnel on board must be evacuated and taken over by Itgleeson's troops." Turning his head to look at Shaduo, Morningstar continued: "You go to Anshidar now, and ask her to bring all the detection tools to the ship prepared by General Vasily, and conduct a comprehensive inspection of the transferred personnel, the highest specifications, and the main goal of the inspection is whether they carry the dead epidemic virus." Also, don't forget to ask Anshidal to bring the vaccine over, just in case. ”
"What about you? Master. "The Shadow Guards were all sent out, and Shaduo, who was the last to receive the mission, was worried about Morningstar's safety.
Morning Star pinched Sha Duo's face and said, "Don't worry, I'm in trouble." ”
Shaduo led the way, while Morningstar strode toward the bridge.
Outside the bridge of the transport ship, Morningstar finally saw Salot. Sallote was lightly veiled, and it looked like he had been hit on the head by a heavy object during a fight, and at this moment he was bandaged on his head, blocking the door of the bridge with his soldiers, and constantly slamming the door, and cursing and swearing.
"Hey!" Morningstar's opening caught Salot's attention.
"Commander Morningstar! There you are. When Salotte saw Morning Star, he hurried a few steps to Morning Star's side.
"What's the situation?" Morningstar asked, pointing to the gauze on top of Salotte's head.
Salot's face turned red, and he replied embarrassedly: "Don't mention it, it was calculated by that guy." ”
"Tell me."
Salotte touched his wound with his hand through the gauze, grinned in pain, shook his head, and replied, "The matter you arranged for me to investigate before has been fruitful in the past few days. The identity of the captain of this transport ship is somewhat special, he was arranged by a certain consortium of the alliance before the departure of the alliance fleet, and it is said that the power of this consortium is quite strong, and the relationship with the top management of the alliance is quite close. Admiral McGonagall couldn't refuse, so she could only send someone to inspect it, but she didn't find anything wrong, and she could only enter the fleet with the ship. The ship behaved normally and without any problems along the way, so General McGonagall and I let our guard down and somewhat ignored the peculiarities of this ship. It wasn't until you asked me to investigate the inner ghost that I remembered that. These days, I have investigated the captain of this ship through various means, and slowly found out that this guy actually came to this ship not long before the formation of the fleet, and he is not very familiar with the staff on the ship. And this guy has a weird personality, easily does not contact others, and spends almost all his personal time in his room. When I learned about the situation, I came to him to find out about the situation, but who knows, who knows that I saw a very strange scene. ”
Hearing this, Morningstar had already guessed a rough idea, but Morningstar did not interrupt Salot's words, but motioned for him to continue.
Salott swallowed, as if recalling something that frightened him, and said: "The captain of this ship is the fat man, he, he seems to have some strange disease, and he has a lot of red skin on his body, which is very disgusting. ”
Morningstar nodded and said, "It's not a body, it's a symptom after the outbreak of the Death Plague Virus, and the fat man has been controlled by the Death Plague Virus." ”
"Shhh Salotte gasped, although he had heard of the Death Plague Virus, and even seen the symptoms of the Death Plague Virus after the complication from some sources, but there had never been a horror like this fat captain, just from the size of the value-added body, it was enough for Salott to tell if these things were Death Plague Virus. But after such a reminder from the morning star, it dawned on Sallot.
"Commander Morning Star, I've seen the symptoms of a patient with the Death Virus, but I've never seen anything as massive as this one. How could he withstand the conformity that these bodies brought to his body? I mean, the body definitely needs a lot of nutrients, so why is this guy so obese? ”
Morningstar shrugged his shoulders and replied, "God knows what those madmen of the Mandate of Heaven Sect think, maybe this is another evolved version of the virus. ”
Salot
Follow-up: "So what should we do?" ”
Morningstar pinched his chin and pondered for a moment, then said, "Wait, I have some other arrangements, and time should not be enough." ”
Although Salotte was eager to ask Morningstar what other arrangements he had, he still put away such thoughts when he thought of the pressure Morningstar had put on him before. As a commander, he must be very concerned about his power before his subordinates, and Salotte understands this very well, and if he asks, I'm afraid Morningstar will be very unhappy. But Morningstar didn't have as many thoughts as Salot, he simply thought that Salotte was not interested in these things.
Morningstar, Salot, two dozen soldiers, this group of people stood outside the bridge and waited for nearly two hours, and the flagship was quiet except for the occasional innocuous remark from Morningstar. Until Shaduo's figure suddenly appeared beside Morning Star.
"All gone?" Morningstar was not surprised by Shaduo's sudden appearance, and when they stayed together in private, the girls of the Shadow Guard had already told Morningstar about their various special abilities. This ability of Shaduo seems to be called Shadow Walking, which is a technique that can hide your body and increase your movement speed at the same time.
Sha Duo nodded yes, in front of outsiders, she didn't want to say a word.
"Salot, get ready, let's break the goal!"
In Salot's heart, although he knew that Morning Star was a very good fighter, he never thought that Morning Star would be so strong, exaggerated. When any ship is built, it will take the worst-case scenario into account, such as being forcibly connected and breaking into the interior of the ship. Out of consideration for this situation, the fire system, power system and bridge protection of the general ship are very strong, in other words, the doors are very strong. Previously, when Morning Star didn't come, Salotte didn't try to break the goal, after all, he wanted to show his ability in front of Morning Star, if he could escort the culprit directly to Morning Star, the effect would be much better than the current situation. But Sallot failed, and he found that with his ability and the weapons in the hands of the soldiers behind him, he could not do the slightest damage to the gate of the bridge, so Sallot had no choice but to insult and slam the door. However, the door, which left him helpless, flew out under the understatement of Morning Star's foot, and landed heavily on the open space in the bridge.
Salotte was speechless at first glance, because the sight before him was far beyond his capacity, and such a scene seemed to be only seen in comics and horror movies.
In the very center of the bridge, there was a ball of flesh wriggling at this time. That's right, it's a meat ball, but this meat ball is also covered with several human faces, or pain, or fear, and some are expressionless. And at the top of the meat ball, that face is something that Salotte will never forget no matter what, it is the owner of this fat face, full of value-added muscles, it is the owner of this Pan Lian, after he discovered his secret, he picked up the stool and gave his head, and it is also the owner of this fat face, because he was panicked and did not dare to accept his own investigation, so Salotte locked him as an inner ghost. But what shocked Sallot was how the fat man's body could have become what it was now, as if it was a monster in a horror movie that devoured a human body and revealed the face of the devoured.
Salotte took a step back with some fear, but found that the morning star beside him did not move at all, and his eyes looked at the big ball of meat in front of him without blinking.
"Lord Morningstar, we, what are we going to do?" Salot's voice trembled a little as he asked.
Morningstar didn't look at Salot, and replied lightly: "You go, the situation here is no longer something you can deal with, take the warriors and leave." ”
"This ......" Salotte hesitated, his commander was still facing the enemy, and he left first, isn't this a deserter? Taking a deep breath, Salotte plucked up his courage and said, "No! Commander Morningstar, I will march with you. ”
Salotte mustered up his courage, but who knew that Morningstar's response was a chuckle. Morning Star waved his hand and said, "Let's go, this is not the time to be a hero, not only will you not be able to help me here, but you will drag me down." Besides, I can't beat and still run, you're here, how can I run? ”
"This ......" Salotte thought for a moment, then stomped his foot vigorously and said, "Commander Morning Star, take care!" Immediately, he left the bridge with the soldiers who had already been a little stunned.
Morning Star looked at Sha Duo who was standing beside him, but the latter took a step ahead of Morning Star and said, "I won't leave, I won't delay your fight, I also have the ability to protect myself, I want to stay with you!" ”
Although Sha Duo's words were very heartwarming, Morning Star knew that no matter what, he couldn't let Sha Duo stay, because the dangerous information revealed by the meat ball in front of him made Morning Star feel a little uncertain. Looking up at the top of his head, Morning Star shook his head, the height is not enough, the space is too narrow, and the trap cannot exert its power.
Turning his head to look at the stubborn Sha Duo, Morning Star really had no way to take this Pusenchus girl who was soft on the outside and strong on the inside. Rubbing Shaduo's face, Morning Star suddenly turned cold and said, "You know me, I do what I say, if you don't leave today, then I'll send you back to Tacilis, have you thought about it?" ”
"I ......"
Morning Star was finally the only one left in the bridge, looking at the big ball of meat that was constantly wriggling in front of him, Morning Star said: "I know you are not waiting for death here, there must be other arrangements, why don't you take advantage of this time, let's talk?" ”
