Chapter 492 Taking the Blame
"Master, this is a merchant ship. The cargo hold is full of cargo. Most of them are metal minerals. Among them, volcanic red steel ore is the main one. It is roughly estimated to be about 20 tons, and there are about 30 tons of processed semi-finished alloy steel. "
In terms of weight alone, these metal ores are nothing. They are precious because volcanic red steel is a relatively rare metal. It is difficult to mine and the distribution of ore sources is rare.
The Mullin family happens to control several volcanic red steel ore planets, which can be regarded as the main source of income for the Mullin family.
Mo Ye walked into the cargo hold and saw the crimson metal mine at a glance. The temperature was very high, as if he was inside a volcano, with big drops of sweat dripping down.
Mo Ye casually put some of them into the space ring and said to Xiaoqi, "Notify Luo Haifeng to prepare for the docking of the spaceship, and put all these things on the egg cake."
Anyway, the grudge has already been forged, so it's hard to return the goods, of course it is taken back to myself, and I just go to the Free Trade Center to dispose of it.
The egg cake slowly approached this two-in-one warship and cargo ship.
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 there were not no crew members who surrendered.
"The docking system is activated, ready to open the hatch"
Under the control of the crew, the battleship opened a black metal channel to connect with the empty cabin of the Eggcake. The two cabin doors were opened to complete the docking. Transfer to the hold of the egg cake.
Looking at the busy robot and listening to Xiao Qi's estimate of the value in his ear, Mo Ye really felt that robbing is 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 have weak legs and injured feet, have been carried back to the egg cake by the robot.
In addition to Mo Ye in the main control room of the battleship, there is also Yan An who walked along the passage just now,
"Then both master and servant have run away?"
"One died, one escaped"
"Corey Mullin has escaped. Judging from the transmission distance of the space directional transmitter 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 Eggcake. It seems that the other one should have hidden far away and lurked.
"whatever,
It’s definitely out of reach now.”
"What about the ship next to it?"
Xiao Qi interrupted the conversation between Mo Ye and Yan An, and suddenly said, "Master, Corey Mullin activated the self-destruct terminal of the battleship before leaving, and it will explode in 30 seconds."
Mo Ye "..." Xiao Qi, you are actually talking about such an important matter now?
Mo Ye dragged Yan An's forefoot and teleported back to the Eggcake, and the battleship of the Mullin family exploded into pieces and scattered in space. The frigate that had been waiting by the side because the communication was cut off didn't understand what happened at all. That's when I realized something was wrong.
They thought that their young master died with the explosion of the spaceship. The captain and his subordinates looked at each other. They knew that they would never be able to please the Mullin family at this time, and they might even implicate their family members. It is the best choice to survive, but I am afraid that I will never have the chance to see my family again.
"Captain, we will die when we go back"
"If we can't go back, instead..."
Without further hesitation, several people in the frigate drove the frigate to the wreckage of the battleship explosion, and started the self-destruct procedure. The escape pod has traveled far.
For these people, Mo Ye and the others are too lazy to pursue them, anyway, the next days will not stop.
…
Corey Mullin teleported to another frigate in the distance, and the blood on his neck gushed 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 ever thought he would be The person kicked and fell to the ground,
Corey said in disbelief, "Captain Ron, what are you doing?"
Ron, the captain of the No. 2 frigate, didn't respond to him. In the next moment, Corey felt that his feet were bound and he couldn't move at all. Only then did he notice that he seemed to be teleported into a boxy isolation box.
Corey held his bleeding neck with one hand. The other hand patted the wall of the isolation box, "I need medical treatment, take me to the medical cabin quickly"
Ron didn't seem to hear Corey's call. After closing the top cover of the isolation box, he walked slowly towards Corey.
"What are you going to do? Don't you want to live?" The fear of death invaded Corey's mind.
"Master Corey, I'm sorry." Ron sat on the sofa not far away and waited 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 will not end well. You know the end of the dog who betrayed the family."
Ron shook his head and smiled, "Master Corey, 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 has been cut off, and with the isolation box , the signal of the biochip cannot be transmitted, and you will be killed by those junior civilization star field explorers, so what does it have to do with me?"
"Damn it, you let me out, who did you turn to, my second uncle or my third uncle? What did they promise you? I'll give you three times no, ten times"
Corey gradually stopped talking, no matter if it is an advanced physicist or a supernatural person, no matter how powerful they are, they are still human beings, and those who can live without blood are called mummy!
The blood on the neck kept gushing out, but Corey was helpless, his face became paler and his body became colder and colder. After two days of persistence, Corey, who had lost too much blood, finally passed away in the isolation box.
Ron shrugged and sent the comm.
…
Going back to the egg cake, Mo Ye locked the surviving Chang Tong and the others into different labyrinth rooms, maybe it would still be useful.
After emptying the cargo hold and energy compartment of the battleship, the egg cake left the scene of the incident and continued to the Free Trade Center.
At this time, great turmoil broke out in the Mulin family far away in the central starfield of the Weilan Empire.
For a large family, direct descendants are the key protection objects. Kerui has a biochip installed in his 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 stopped feeding back information, this kind of thing would only happen in two situations, Jerry died, or the biochip was taken out. Either way, it meant that the eldest grandson of the Mullin family was in danger.
"Patriarch, the last time Master Corey sent back a communication was a day ago. He found a suspicious person on the way to the Free Trade Center. The master did not mention the specific details."
The old patriarch Mu Lin held the armrest of the chair tightly, showing his past and present. Kerui is his favorite grandson and the best heir. He only wanted to sit in the position of patriarch and cultivate this grandson well. In the future, he will be the heir. I didn't expect such a thing to happen.
People from all walks of life gathered in the family chamber. On the surface, they all look sad and angry, but in reality it is not certain what it is.
The sons of the old patriarch were happy to hear this, and how could they not be happy that a major obstacle preventing them from becoming the patriarch was gone.
Their eldest brother has only one child, even if they want to have one now, they have to ask them whether they agree or not if the child can grow up smoothly.
"Father, leave this matter to me. I will definitely bring back the murderer who killed my nephew."
"The murderer who killed my nephew may have something to do with the mysterious man in black that we have recently tracked down."
The old patriarch Mu Lin glared at his two sons, shut up." Then he said to the people behind him, "Check it out, let me check it out right away, who exactly shot Kerui. What happened then, what about the two frigates? "
"No. 1 was also blown up, and No. 2 has just received a family communication and is searching nearby."
"No matter who hurt my grandson, I must make the other party pay the price." The alloy seat armrest finally couldn't hold back the old man's force and smashed into dross." Immediately send someone to the Free Trade Center and ask the No. 2 frigate carefully. What happened at that time? What, you must find someone for me."
"Yes, Patriarch"
…
News of Corey Mullin's death quickly spread among the upper class of the Weilan Empire. Xiao Qi also received the message.
"Master. The young master of the Mullin family is dead. He died from an injury to the carotid artery and lost too much blood."
Mo Ye blinked suspiciously. "Dead?" At that time, the man had already teleported away through the space directional device. Although the neck was injured by 11's attack, the wound was not fatal in a short time. As long as you go back to the treatment cabin to stop the bleeding and heal the wound, you can be alive and kicking right away. How could you die? This is unscientific!
"cause of death?"
"The Mullin family has not announced it to the public, claiming that it is still under investigation and has not found the body, but I found out that the Mullin family has secretly dispatched armed forces to leave the family residence."
It was odd.
Mo Ye thought of the few people locked in the maze room, got up and went to the maze room where they were.
Long Tongue lay half dead on the floor, turned his head slightly to see Mo Ye who suddenly appeared, and trembled unconsciously.
Well, Master 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 obtained a lot of secrets about the Mu Lin family, such as adulteration of the Chiyan Mine, sibling rivalry, and so on.
Mo Ye always felt that some important and unreasonable things were missed, such as the frigate that did not appear from the beginning to the end, and Corey Mullin's death.
Under the lingering shackles of the bloody thorns, Long Tongue's psychological defense finally collapsed. He told all the information about the Mulin family. He wished to tell Mo Ye how old the old patriarch of the Mulin family was weaned. He didn't want to live, but to die. .
For him now, it is a torment more painful than death, the tingling of the soul, those people he had brutally killed appeared in front of his eyes one by one and grinning at him with grinning smiles, he really couldn't bear that kind of pain Living.
"I've told you everything I know, please, kill me, please..."
"Just kill me"
Under Mo Ye's gesture, Xiao Hei licked his lips and threw himself into Long Tongue's body, having a good meal.
"I didn't expect him to be the secret flag sent by the fourth young master of the Mullin family to Kerui."
"The struggle within the big family has always been ruthless"
Mo Ye didn't expect that the random interrogation would yield unexpected information, that the Mulin family was actually connected with the mastermind behind the black death virus.
To be precise, it was the fourth young master of the Mulin family. This fourth young master who usually does not show his talents and is not taken seriously has actually done so many things in secret.
Mo Ye and Yan An listened to Chang Tong's narration as if they were listening to a book, Nima. This is simply a classic story of family grievances. The birth mother of the fourth young master Clotte was a dancer girl of low status. plan of.
Mo Ye did him a big favor by the way. His annoying, bad-tempered younger brother fell off the horse and was locked up, and his most hated nephew lost his life again. It was all because Mo Ye and the others acted as pushers and unintentionally became great helpers.
Not only that, but he also let Mo Ye and others take the blame. Corey Mullin was obviously killed by his fourth uncle. The other battleship that was lurking at that time was probably also arranged by the fourth uncle. hands and feet.
"The fourth young master of the Mullin family, Clotte, do you think that the person he described in the long tongue is the one who planned the black death virus?"
"Very likely. The features of that person are too similar to what Oliz described"
"Hehe, he is uniting with others to cheat his own family"
"Little Qi, look up this Clotte Mullin, I want his detailed information"
"No problem master"
Your Excellency the mage will not take the blame for others casually.
…
After many days of voyage, the egg cake finally arrived at the destination of the trip, the Free Trade Center.
The Free Trade Center is the largest trading star area in the Weilan Empire. It nominally belongs to the Weilan Empire. In fact, it is equivalent to a special economic zone. None of the repatriation efforts were successful. The power distribution is quite complicated, but it is the favorite of merchants.
The Free Trade Center is composed of seven planets. Due to the orbital movement of the planets, these seven planets will be connected in a straight line every seventy years, which is also called the Seven Stars.
The bustling free trade center does not have so many rules for landing on other planets. All registered merchant ships can land directly. The spaceship starship that goes for the first time can be released after a simple registration, but it can only be docked on various planets. port.
The fleet of merchant ships coming and going is very lively, in stark contrast to the endless lonely space before.
"Wow. This is the first time I've seen so many fleets coming and going"
"Me too"
"it's beautiful"
The children of the Chen family, who had never left Zhulin Village, lay on the viewing window and stared wide-eyed. Mouth opened but never closed.
The egg cake chose to land on the Seven Star No. 1 planet.
The reason why the Eggcake still dared to show up at 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 it public that they were murderers. Although in a way, they weren't.
The Mullin family has confirmed the connection between the mysterious man in black and the egg cake, but it must be said that he is really a member of the mission from the low-level civilization star field. The old patriarch Mu Lin couldn't believe it, especially after receiving the report from the captain of the No. 2 frigate, Ron, his doubts and guesses deepened.
In his opinion, there must be other interests involved in this. All forces are paying attention to this matter. Maybe they will startle the snake and even make others cheaper. Therefore, the Mullin family has been silent about this matter and secretly sent people to free trade. The center searched for Mo Ye and others.
Although the death of the eldest grandson made the old Mulin patriarch heartbroken, the family is always the first, and the family's interests must be the main premise. It is not a good thing for the current Mulin family to rashly reveal the murderer and cause speculation from all parties.
…
The reason why the free trade center is so prosperous is inseparable from the word freedom. As long as you can afford the money and find a way, you can buy and sell anything here, and citizenship is no exception.
As Chen Zhongshou and his wife, who have disappeared in civilized society for decades, and their children who have never been out of the outside world, it is of course the most important thing to get a legal identity again. The same is true for Oliz and his mother. Nanyuan City has been destroyed. If they want to keep it The previous citizenship card will be discovered sooner or later, and the explanation will not be clear at that time. Now it is very necessary to start over with a new look.
After Mo Ye and the others came out of the airport, they looked like Dong Zhang hoped. Others could tell at a glance that this group of people came here for the first time. Judging from their appearance, clothes, and temperament, they must be big customers, or you can say Fat lamb for slaughter.
As soon as he left the airport, a young man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks approached him, smiling and showing yellow teeth like corn kernels, "This is the first time for you to come to the Free Trade Center. My name is Beda, do you need a guide? I can To provide you with the most complete service, to ensure high quality and low price”
There are quite a few such soliciting guides outside the gate of the airport, although there is an intelligent navigation system. But that thing is better in other places, not necessarily in the Free Trade Center. The official unmarked black market, underground auctions, casinos, super-friendship services, etc., are not found in the official smart navigation. It is necessary to find out the guidance of local people who can understand the situation, and those who have connections can get good discounts.
Because of the particularity of this place, the career development of guiding is booming. Of course, the competition between each other is also very fierce, and most of them are organized and backed.
Beda belongs to one of the local snake organizations, who specialize in slaughtering new customers, taking customers to designated expensive stores to receive a large amount of kickbacks, and sometimes even acting as a thief, stealing customers' property, or reselling customer information. What a bargain.
The reason why such an organization can exist for a long time is naturally because there are people on it. As long as they don’t provoke themselves, everyone will turn a blind eye. Coptidis is suffering and can't tell. Knocked out teeth and swallowed with blood.
These cute little lambs of Mo Ye were targeted as soon as they landed. In their eyes, this kind of appearance of a rich kid going out to see the world is simply synonymous with rich and stupid people. Come to pit me' a few big words.
Mo Ye didn't pay attention to this person, he looked really unsightly, and he was calculated to be evil. He raised his eyes and looked around. This place is indeed different from most planets.
At least there is no suspended layer covering the sky. Although there are still suspended buildings in the sky, they are well arranged and all have been accurately calculated. Does not block sunlight from the lower floors. The floating lanes are all made of transparent materials, giving people a sense of transparency.
"Momo. We do need a guide, but it seems that no one dares to compete with him for business until this yellow-toothed monkey leaves."
Chen Zhongshou once visited the Free Trade Center decades ago, and he is quite clear about the rules here. "There are rules here. Those who rob business will be taught a lesson. Unless we take the initiative to find them, no one will rob you."
"So it is"
"Then let's go and find someone else"
Unexpectedly, Mo Ye and the others ran into walls one after another. When the guides saw them approaching, they pretended to leave unintentionally, pretending that they hadn't heard anything.
Bei Da came over again, "The guests are all busy, why don't you listen to me and follow me?"
Mo Ye raised his eyebrows. This is because he met a bully who wanted to buy and sell by force.
"What's the matter with these people, they don't want to do business if they have business?"
"Fear of retaliation"
"This is treating us like soft buns"
Your Excellency the mage walked towards a dark-skinned young man, "Are you a guide?"
"yes"
"Take us around, I'll give you twice the usual pay"
The dark 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, and then don't..."
Luo Meizi couldn't bear it anymore and kicked sideways, the yellow-toothed monkey flew eight feet away before it finished speaking, lay on the ground and couldn't get up for a long time.
In an instant, the air was fresher!
Mo Ye said to the dark boy again, "Can you be our guide now?"
The dark boy glanced at Beida who was lying on the ground and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes."
"Let's go then"
"You are here for the first time, what kind of hotel do you want to stay in, here are..."
"I'll talk about the place to live in a while, let's take us to this place first." Chen Zhongshou pointed to the back of his hand, and Kanuza understood.
"No problem, come with me"
Under the leadership of Kanuza, the group came to a small alley and walked into the basement. A large iron gate that looked very old appeared in front of everyone.
Kanuza knocked on the door regularly, and a video light screen appeared on the iron door.
"Six Replacement Citizen Cards"
"Fill in the information request"
Chen Zhongshou and others entered the identity information that they had fabricated before. They either did not have or had been canceled because of their citizenship, and it was not particularly difficult to make up for it.
Zanuka turned around and said to Mo Ye and the others, "Please wait a moment, the new citizenship card will be ready in about an hour. We can go shopping in other places before picking up the goods."
"good"
"I need to purchase a batch of plant raw materials, where can I buy them?"
"For plants, it's best to go to the Flor Trading Market, which is the trading market with the most complete varieties of plants, and most of the plant materials can be purchased there" ()
