Chapter 34: The Captain's Threat
Du Jin and Li Mengyan walked quickly through the medical deck, and what they didn't notice was that one by one hidden miniature security probes recorded their travel routes completely and transmitted them back to the security center, and at this time, in the security center of the medical deck, there were not all infected corpse variants as Du Jin and Li Mengyan imagined, because in the eyes of the two, if the bridge was attacked by these corpse mutants, how could a mere security center be spared?
Contrary to the facts, not only does not there exist a corpse variant in the security center at this time, more than forty humans are still here in charge of monitoring, door control and other security systems, but the clothes worn by these people are unusual, if Du Jin is here, he will immediately recognize that these clothes are full of dense red blood mark patterns, even the back of the hand they are controlling the holographic control panel, there are blood-red blood tattoos, this kind of fanatical worship makes people shudder.
Ralph sat indifferently in the security director's room, looked at the busy people below and the constantly changing surveillance screen through the huge floor-to-ceiling window, smiled and picked up a cup of coffee, and said to a middle-aged man sitting opposite him:
"Captain McCass, would you like a drink?"
McCasse was silent and did not say a word, and if he looked closely, he was not so much sitting opposite Ralph as he was tied to a chair opposite him, two pairs of heavy and flashing red light streaks firmly fixed Captain McCas's hands and feet firmly on the metal chair, looking at McCas, who did not respond to him, Ralph was not surprised, he took a sip of coffee with his mouth, and the bitter and mellow smell burst out in his mouth, which made Ralph's whole body feel comfortable.
"Mr. Captain, don't be so tough, you must know that your situation is not very optimistic right now, by the way, I want to praise you, the coffee beans you brought from the Karl system are indeed extraordinary, even for a picky person like me, I enjoy it."
Listening to Ralph's words, the mockery in them made McCas more and more angry, he stared at Ralph with sharp eyes, and said in a tone full of anger:
"Ralph, do you know what you're doing? This ship is not something you can take first, you Unity Demon, the Federation will send you all to hell with that damn blood seal......."
Before he finished speaking, Ralph leaned over the table and threw a heavy punch to McCas's face, the sudden attack made McCass fall off guard, because there was no way to raise his hand to defend, he could only take this punch with his face firmly, and Ralph's strength was not ordinary, this punch directly knocked out McCas's teeth, the bridge of his nose also collapsed, and his face was immediately red and swollen like bleeding, and then the angry expression on Ralph's face was replaced by a smile, he picked up a handkerchief and wiped his blood-stained fist, and then said to McCasse blandly:
"Mercas, there are some things that you can't defile with words, the Holy Seal of the Church of Unity is supreme, it's not something that ants like you can finger in, for you uncivilized human scum who are not qualified to talk to those of us who have been guided by the Holy Seal, but I gave you a chance, but unfortunately you didn't cherish it, let's put it this way, if it weren't for the fact that we had Du Jin, a traitor, took away a fragment of the Holy Seal, you and your crew would have turned into corpse mutants a long time ago and contributed to the unity of mankind, So I don't want to talk nonsense either, tell me his permission code! ”
McCasse spat the blood and teeth from his mouth on the ground, and then raised his head again, as the first pioneers of the Federation, his will was definitely not so fragile, he laughed hehe, and said in a mocking tone:
"Hahaha! Ralph, take up your teachings and go to the deceivers! Du Jin, he is a wise man who left the cave of sin of the Unity Sect, you are right! He came to me before, and hid your so-called holy seal in one place, and he is far away from you, close at hand, but unfortunately, if you want to knock the answer out of my mouth, you hairy boy is still too tender! Hahaha! ”
Ralph looked at the laughing McCas with a somewhat solemn face, as he said, McCas's spiritual will is extremely tenacious, even if he uses the Holy Seal, there is no way to erode him, such a person is even more common for torture, you must know that as a pioneer from the grassroots miner, McCas's pain is unimaginable, half of his body has been replaced with bionic machinery, which is also the background of his ability to become the captain of a Zeus-class mining ship from the grassroots level, Ralph really can't think of a way to let him open his mouth in a short time.
While Ralph was at a loss, a cultist dressed in exoskeleton armor engraved with blood-marked patterns walked in, bowed respectfully to Ralph's side on one knee, and said in an extremely respectful voice:
"Lord Bishop, we've found the team you mentioned, they're heading towards the medical deck!"
As if hearing something to be happy about, Ralph's smile reappeared, he nodded and waved the cultist down, then he sat back in the security chief's seat, put his hands on McCass, and said:
"Captain McCass, isn't there a way to tell you the truth? I have to say, your personal guards are still very powerful, and can get here from the bridge through the maintenance deck and the life support deck, but alas, their loyal servants will kill themselves, including your son, of course, let's see how they behave? ”
Hearing Ralph's words, McCas's smile instantly froze, he couldn't be more familiar with the other party's personal guards, after he was tricked by Ralph to the medical deck on the grounds of inspection, his guards have been on standby, and its command was handed over to his son, because McCas has spent almost most of his life in spaceships or offshore colonies, in his opinion, no fixed fortress is safe, after being appointed as the captain of the "Eden" Zeus-class mining ship, He immediately organized his cronies and comrades-in-arms into a well-equipped army, and then brought his own son with him.
This can not only ensure the safety of his son, not to be threatened by those federal bureaucrats, but also allow his children to experience and prepare for the resources that will take over him in the future, but what McCasse didn't expect at that time was that his own actions would become the most threatening handle, McCasse may be very tough and strict externally, but for his brother and his son who accompanied him from birth to death, he is definitely a good boss and a good father, and he will do the same for his brother and son in any preparation for himself, because the former is the foundation of his life, and the latter is the continuation of the family heritage.
"Ralph, you bastard, if anything happens to them, I won't let you go! I'll let you know what cruelty is, Ralph! ”
"Shhhh It's time for the show! ”
Ralph did not respond to McCas's anger, but smiled and put his index finger to his lips, and then motioned for the angry McCass to calm down, and then the floor-to-ceiling window of the director's office instantly turned from transparent to pitch black, and the next second a line of well-equipped people appeared on the screen:
"Boss, Captain, is he really going to be here? There are too many monsters along the way, what if ..... I mean, if, captain, he's become one of them.........."
A soldier covered from head to toe with heavy armor spoke to the leading man through the communicator, and before he could finish speaking, a cold voice replied:
"If you want to be one of those monsters, I can give you a ride, if you don't want to, just keep your mouth shut, don't mess with the army here!"
Hearing the leader's words, the soldier immediately shut his mouth, the leader of the team is obviously very prestigious, this is Mercas's son Meluka, after his father brought him to his own personal guard, he completely handed over the command of the entire team to him, on the one hand, McCas's trust in his son, on the other hand, it is also a backhand for himself, if McCass is controlled on the surface, then his son can also control the team independently, whether it is to escape or rescue, it will not be to the point where there are no soldiers.
And Manuka did not live up to his father's trust and expectations of himself, a few hours after his father left the bridge to go to the medical deck, he noticed the abnormality and immediately sent a distress signal to the nearest colony, and then immediately led the team to rescue his father, but the monsters along the way caught them off guard, in order to preserve enough strength, Manuka steadily advanced through various shortcuts, and after killing hundreds of corpse mutants, there were still fifty troops left, but more than ten technicians were injured, This may not be the best result, after all, it still loses nearly a sixth of the troops.
But with almost 95 percent of the miner's security team losing more than 95 percent of the battle, Manuka was clearly a very good commander, better than his father in command and combat.
When the team came to the medical buffer cabin in front of the medical deck, Manuka stopped, he raised his right fist to signal the team behind him to stop, looking at the countless claw marks on the alloy buffer door, he immediately realized that something was wrong:
"There have been a lot of corpse variants here, but it's so quiet at this time, it's clear that they're chasing something and dispersed."
