Chapter XVIII: Dangerous Guests

He Ruozhi was dumbfounded!

He was completely naked, only wearing a thin bath towel at his lower abdomen, and his hair was still wet.

"Who is he?" He Ruozhi stammered and asked.

On his 'bed' lay three beam guns, a miniature electromagnetic blade, and much more that he couldn't figure out, an iceberg beauty 'woman' was expertly assembling some kind of device.

"Major Celia, you can call me Celia."

"I thought this was my room."

"Yes, from today onwards I will provide you with twenty-four hour close protection, on the orders of Lieutenant Colonel Bart." Celia said expressionlessly, looked at He Ruozhi's emaciated body with disgust, pointed to a gun on the 'bed' and said, "Will it be used?" ”

Yes?

"Well, I don't think you either. This is the Berek Model 634 self-defense beam pistol, the power is not too great, it is very suitable for children and 'women' and 'sex', I hope you will be able to carry it 24 hours a day in the future, whether it is in the shower or doing something else. Of course, I don't expect you to be able to hit enemies with it, but at least you can use your gun to sound the alarm. ”

"Uh..... Damn it! That's not the point at all! "He Ruozhi is depressed", the point is that I don't need any imitation at all! ”

Damn it! He Ruozhi has too many secrets that can't be discovered by others!

If nothing else, let's just say that he runs the Black Bone Technique every day to meditate, how can he explain to this bald beauty 'girl', a qigong enthusiast?

There is also Abu, who can play yellow and has a yellow 'color' waste in his head, which should also make people suspicious, right?

Major Celia still looked cold, and didn't seem to hear his words at all: "There is likely to be a Doomsday spy on the Shadow Star, and you have just demonstrated such a magical maintenance technique, so we judge that you are likely to become the target of the enemy's attention, in fact, if the people of the Future Skeleton really have brains, then their lord will do everything to capture you back, you should understand your own value, right?"

"This ....." He Ruozhi groaned, "I will protect myself, really, maybe you don't believe it, but--"

Major Celia showed a mocking expression and pointed to the metal cover of his left eye: "In this, a miniature energy detector is installed, do you want to know my evaluation of your combat power?" Unworthy. ”

He Ruozhi sighed, he found that it was impossible for him to convince this beautiful 'girl' no matter what.

One by one, unless he smashed the entire wall with one punch in front of Major Celia.

He Ruozhi had no choice but to surrender: "Okay, my Major Celia, then may I ask when this kind of twenty-four-hour close protection will end?" ”

"Just wait until we find out who the Skeleton's spy is."

"How long will that take!"

The Major smiled confidently: "It won't be long, we have very advanced polygraph methods, it only takes a day or two to find that damn crumb, and then I will personally twist the poor worm's neck, tear open his smelly 'chest', and tear out the filthy internal organs......"

"Major, can you stop talking about such a bloody thing before going to bed, I'll do something evil."

Midnight.

He Ruozhi suddenly opened his eyes, and he crept through the room. Major Celia doesn't know where he went, but he can't miss this opportunity!

He Ruozhi took Abu to sneak out of the room and ran towards the scrapped machinery dump at the rear of the base. The light power in his body needs to be suppressed by the dark power every day, and this scene cannot be discovered!

Scrapped mechanical field really no one, under the vague star music He Ruozhi sat down cross-legged, his mind was absorbed into his own sea of knowledge, and the dark power hidden in the depths of the brain slowly flowed throughout the body, the whole process 'spent' a full hour, after the end of the exercise, He Ruozhi was refreshed, and his body was full of strength.

"What about it...... How will I explain this to Major Celia when I get back? What a headache!" He Ruozhi secretly opened the big 'door' of the scrapped machinery yard, and saw that no one outside hurriedly ran out.

It's a pity that he just ran two steps, and he heard a stern voice from behind: "Mr. He Ruozhi!"

Major Celia crossed her hands on her hips and stared at He Ruozhi with a frosty face.

"Major....." He Ruozhi hugged Abu and greeted him with a very innocent smile, "You see that the moon is so beautiful tonight, I can't sleep after tossing and turning on the 'bed', so I just come out for a walk, so it should be no problem, right?" ”

"Shadow Stars and Moons." Lieutenant Colonel Celia said coldly: "Mr. He Ruozhi, this is an extraordinary time, and the spies of the future skeletons may be lurking in the shadows, waiting for an opportunity to sabotage!" I'm busy enough to protect the entire base after the disaster, please don't increase my workload, okay? ”

"I'm sorry." He Ruozhi lowered his head embarrassedly and apologized, and then defended, "But I don't think I'm so important!" If there were spies or assassins, important people like Colonel Bart and Captain Kay would be their targets, right?"

Celia sneered and said, "It seems that you still don't know your own value, He Ruozhi!" The soldiers on Shadow Star are well-trained soldiers, and even if the highest commander is killed, there will be a lieutenant commander in command. But you're different, in such a closed environment, a good mech repairer can play a very huge role, so that Shadow Star can support for a longer time, waiting for rescue to arrive, not to mention, Colonel Butters and Captain Kai are not so easy to attack, yes, the number of spies should not be too much, maybe only one person. Choose a goal that is relatively easy to succeed in! “

He Ruozhi 'touched' his nose and said, "Fortunately, there hasn't been an accident yet, and I will go back to the room immediately." ”

Major Celia nodded, and suddenly laughed secretly: "Maybe it's a little late, Mr. He Ruozhi."

"W-what does this mean?" Looking at the mechanically cold face of the major, He Ruozhi had a bad premonition in his heart.

Major Celia said leisurely: "It's very dangerous in the base now, so I think it's better for you to stay by my side, and I can go to an absolutely safe place."

"Where?"

Major Celia smiled slightly, and said unhurriedly, "Future Skeleton Headquarters!" ”

This time, He Ruozhi was really startled, and there was a magic extra 'fine' energy pistol in Major Celia's palm, although the power was not high, it was enough to kill people. The major said coldly: "I reminded you, Mr. He Ruozhi, I said that there might be spies from the Doomsday Ship outside, but you don't believe that you have to run out." Since we are so destined, then please come with me!"

He Ruozhi suddenly realized: "You, you are the spy of the future skeleton!" ”

"That's right, but there's no reward. Listen, I don't want to hurt a mech maintenance master like you, and you're going to help us repair my mech when we get to headquarters. So you're going to obey my orders now, understand? Now move forward.

He Ruozhi originally wanted to say something, but seeing the muzzle of the black 'hole' and 'hole' in the other party's hand, He Ruozhi frowned slightly, and finally obediently followed Major Celia, and soon came to a small port.

The harbor is deserted, except for a small spaceship parked in the middle, and it seems that Major Celia is ready to escape from Shadow Star!

He Ruozhi sat on the seat very obediently, and Major Celia closed the 'door' of the spaceship cabin, squinted his eyes slightly threateningly, and said, "I don't want to tie you up, so you'd better not make any 'mess', huh?" ”

"Of course, of course!" He Ruozhi nodded again and again, "What kind of 'chaos' can I make in front of a professional soldier?"

"What's this thing in your hand?" Major Celia grabbed the 'fat' and 'fat' 'flesh' on the back of Abu's neck and picked it up.

Abu bared his teeth and claws, and let out a "nag and nack" cat meow.

He Ruozhi groaned: "Well, in fact, this is a pet cat, and it is not offensive at all." ”

"Pet cats? Do you think I'm blind? Hmph, I hope you don't do something stupid, Mr. He Ruo! I know you're not a soldier, and it's not your war at all, as long as you're obedient, I can guarantee your life, after all, we're in need of mechanics in our future skeletons. ”

Major Celia was busy 'maneuvering' in front of the console, and after half a minute or so, the ship was silently rowing out of course. After more than ten minutes, the Shadow Star had disappeared behind him, and outside the window was a group of bright stars.

Major Celia set the automatic sailing course, walked to He Ruozhi with her arms crossed, she took out some semi-liquid food from the storage box and handed it over, her face softened a little.

Celia shrugged: "You did well just now, if it keeps going like this, I think we have a good chance of working together." ”

He Ruozhi smiled and said, "I'm afraid that even if I didn't come out just now, the major would have already decided to arrest me, right?" ”

"Yes." Major Celia admits without hesitation, "Bart and Kay are so difficult to deal with, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to successfully assassinate or capture one of them." Mr. He Ruozhi, you are much simpler, your maintenance technology itself is what we urgently need in the Doomsday Skeleton, and yesterday you performed such a 'fine' show in front of all the soldiers on the Shadow Star, if you disappear at this time, it will definitely cause panic in the hearts of the army. That way, our Doomskarls will soon be able to launch a second attack.

He Ruozhi blinked his eyes and said suspiciously: "I don't believe that you are the real Future Skeletons, the Future Skeletons were all wiped out three years ago. ”

Major Celia's eyes lit up with a strong light, and he said word by word: "Yes, we are indeed not the doomsday of the past!" The past Doomsday Ship has been completely slaughtered by Kai and Barth, the scum of the military, with biological and chemical weapons, Hmph, Kai shouldn't have told you about such a thing, Mr. He Ruozhi! But those guys never thought that in the base of Doomsday S at that time, there were still many civilians who survived and saw that tragic scene with their own eyes! That bloody tragedy is still echoing in front of my eyes until now, and only with the flame of revenge can this bloody memory be completely washed away!"

"So that's the case......" He Ruozhi looked thoughtful, put one hand on his cheek, and continued to give birth: "Because your relatives were killed, you want to find the culprit at that time for revenge, right?" ”

Major Celia gritted his teeth and said, "Our father and brother are all members of the Doomsday Ship, and as pirates, they were surrounded and suppressed by the political army, which would have been a very fair thing!" But at that time, there were so many 'women', 'women' and children in the base, but the poison gas bombs of the political fǔ army killed them all, do you know how this feels? Can you understand our pain! In the whole town of 100,000 people, in the end there were only 3,000 'women' and 'women' left! All the men blocked us to resist the gas, and all the children could not resist the power of the gas bombs, and we watched them die!"

"I'm sorry......" He Ruozhi said, "If it's for the revenge of the 'woman', 'woman' and children, I can understand your feelings, but, but why do you want to target Kai and Shadow Star?" ”

"Hmph, after we escaped from the base, we found out after many inquiries that it was the special forces commanded by Kai who attacked the skeleton at that time! Now this special forces unit is led by Tema and is stationed on Shadow Star! After knowing this news, I did everything possible to 'mix' into the Shadow Star, and stayed here for three years, gradually 'figuring' all the situations on the entire planet, originally thinking that this attack would be successful, but I didn't expect that Shangkai would appear again, and this demon ruined our plans again..... But it doesn't matter, we won't let you run away again this time! ”

Major Celia glanced at He Ruozhi: "How about it, now that you know Kai's true face, do you still have such great hostility towards us?" Although we have inherited the name of Doomsday S, we are by no means interstellar pirates, and we have never plundered civilians! Our only wish is to avenge the innocent deaths, and when that is fulfilled, the Doomsday Skeleton will be automatically dissolved!"

He Ruozhi opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.

Kai certainly wouldn't be what he said he wouldn't be, otherwise he wouldn't have been on Dead Island that long.

But even if he said these words, Celia, who was in a fit of rage, obviously wouldn't believe it. For the past three years, she has been hypnotizing herself, treating Kai as her only enemy, and this self-hypnosis cannot be lifted in a moment.

In fact, if He Ruozhi must have wanted, he can also use some secret techniques in necromancy magic to exert influence on Celia's brain and unconsciously change her thinking. But the sequelae of this technique are too strong, and it is inevitably too indigo, and He Ruozhi still disdains to do this.

The key question is.......

He Ruozhi's eyes narrowed.

He believed that Celia hadn't lied to him, and that the current Future Skeletons were really just a bunch of vengeful orphaned mothers, as evidenced by their fighting style.

A person who is driven by revenge may be able to learn superb mecha skills in as little as a year or two.

But experience is not something that can be mastered through practice.

The key question is who trained these people, and who provided them with the standard high-level mechs. The Doomsday Ship may have hidden a treasure or something, but high-level mechs are not something that can be bought with money, let alone a huge, advanced hive warship.

There must be someone hiding behind the curtain to '' the whole situation!

There must be a 'yin' conspiracy in this, and the timing is too coincidental......

Thinking of what happened on the Tianning Star, He Ruozhi suddenly felt that some vague answers had surfaced in his mind, and now he just lacked a clear clue that could connect these answers like pearls.

I'm afraid the answer to all this can only be solved by going to the headquarters of the future skeleton!

After a full day of sailing, the surrounding electromagnetic storm began to become violent, and the meteorite belt became tighter and tighter, and there was no decent channel at all.

Traveling on this kind of route, He Ruozhi estimated that even if he piloted the mecha, he would at least have to familiarize himself with it for a while. Major Celia was at ease.

The ship deftly avoided all sorts of deadly dangers until a gigantic meteorite appeared in front of it.

After success, the meteorite itself is the best camouflage and armor, which can greatly improve the base's resistance to attack and concealment.

After the big 'gate' of the base was closed, He Ruozhi found that there were countless passages in front of him, each of which was nearly fifty meters in diameter, and he could easily pass through several mecha or small warships.

The walls of the passage glowed with a faint silver light, guiding the way forward. However, there are many forks in the road here, and the entire inside of the meteorite is like a huge 'labyrinth', and strangers will definitely 'get lost' in it.

He Ruozhi whispered to Abu: "Have you recorded all the routes we came in?"

"It's all recorded, master."

After flying inward for more than twenty minutes, the spacecraft finally landed slowly at a pier.

He Ruozhi stared blankly at the shadow outside the window, unable to believe his eyes.

Inside this huge meteorite, there is not only a base, but a medium-sized town!

In a huge empty 'hole' with a diameter of tens of kilometers, there lies a flat land!

Underneath the land is a massive anti-gravity device that allows the land to float in the middle of an empty 'hole'.

Overhead, a nuclear-powered artificial sun provides heat and illumination!

Around this paradise is an airtight environment created by creating a closed environment that fills the center of the land with fresh and comfortable air.

The town stands in it.

It is a colorful town, and although the basic building materials are metal, the citizens who love beauty decorate their homes with various 'colors'. He Ruozhi saw a bustling market, in which many civilians shuttled and enjoyed themselves.

There are still a lot of children running around on the artificial grass outside the town, laughing and laughing, and it is not at all obvious that it is a pirate base!

"I, I thought it was just a military base." He Ruozhi stammered, this is really too far from the imaginary pirate camp, right?

Major Celia straightened her clothes and smiled heartily, "I told you a long time ago that we are no ordinary pirates, just a group of people trying to survive. ”

"But you said that the entire children of Doomscab were killed by poison gas bombs."

"Yes." Celia said with a little melancholy, "We don't have children in this base, but there are still in other pirate bases. There were originally a few pirates around the entire Shadow Volume, and all of these pirates had family members and descendants. Later, with the fierce encirclement and suppression of the political army, the pirates were all killed, but their families, the innocent 'women' and children, were not there, and if no one helped these 'women' and children, they would definitely starve to death, so we brought them here to build a new homeland.

Major Celia glanced at He Ruozhi and added, "Of course, it costs a lot of money to build such a base, but we have never done even one more pirate thing. Whether it's the Doomstooth or the other pirates who have been eliminated, there is some money left behind. Of course, this money is not easy to come by, but when faced with the problem of survival, we feel that there is nothing inappropriate to use this money. ”

Major Celia took He Ruo off the ship.
