Gods: The Swarm

Chapter 559 Slave Ship

In the dark void, a huge ring-shaped spaceship is slowly drifting under the drive of inertia.

The three ring-shaped orbital modules around the central axis of the ship have long stopped rotating and can no longer provide simulated gravity for the orbital modules.

The power engine and booster at the tail of the cylindrical hollow body at the axis position have been extinguished for a long time.

A large amount of leaked accelerant condensed into ice crystals in the low-temperature cosmic environment, adhered to the vicinity of the jet nozzle, and formed a long and thin blue tail cone.

"Wow! Tsk tsk tsk tsk ..."

Seeing the picture sent back by the deep space detector, Han Fei couldn't help but let out a burst of tsk tsk sounds, and his face could not hide the disappointment.

This spaceship that sent out a wide-area distress signal is obviously not a high-end product.

Looking at the condition of its hull, it can be seen that it has been drifting in this cosmic cavity for some time.

The old design, outdated architecture, inefficient divine energy crystal power supply system and the garbage engine that should have been eliminated long ago...

In today's human civilization, only textbooks and museums can show antiques like this model.

Of course, it is at least a spaceship that can travel across star regions. Even if it is not equipped with a folding engine, it can at least carry out continuous space curvature navigation.

The efficiency may not be high, but the consumption of divine energy crystals is also very low.

The biggest advantage of this old stall product may be that it saves money!

Looking at the huge three-ring orbital cabin, you can know that the carrying capacity of this thing must be considerable. It is definitely a high-cost transport ship that is the first choice for poor people.

"Since we are here, let's go and take a look."

Touching his chin, even though he had already judged that there was probably nothing good in this ship, Han Fei still held the mentality of a thief not leaving empty-handed, and ordered the bionic man to turn the starship's course and head towards the crashed spaceship.

It didn't take much time, and the advanced optical equipment equipped with the starship could clearly observe the details of the spaceship.

Through the porthole of the bridge, Han Fei looked at the spaceship that was getting closer and closer. After getting closer, he felt its huge size more intuitively.

"Damn! No wonder it is a three-ring cabin structure that can simulate gravity. This is also a spaceship that transports living things!"

"A spaceship sailing in the cavity of the universe must not be a regular interstellar travel ship."

"In that case, this is either a smuggling ship or a slave ship!"

After reaching this conclusion, Han Fei's heart seemed to be covered with a layer of haze.

He couldn't imagine how these smugglers got enough creatures on this ship.

Both smuggling and slave trade are highly profitable businesses.

Moreover, in this era of gods, a high-end slave commodity has been derived from the slave trade.

That is, high-value slaves who have obtained the seeds of gods but have not yet opened up the domain of gods.

In the star field where Han Fei is located, the most valuable slaves are definitely the teenagers of the two dominant races, humans and Longwa.

Because these two civilizations have the fire that can produce the seeds of gods, the prevalence rate of obtaining the seeds of gods among the teenagers of the right age of this race is very high.

As long as these people are controlled in reality, the value they can bring to the world of gods after they open up the divine domain is self-evident.

There is a famous saying in the interstellar world that if there is a 100% profit, the guys begging in the interstellar world will take risks.

If there is a 200% profit, they are willing to defy the rules.

If there is a 300% profit, they dare to trample on everything in the world.

And as long as this quality and scale of slave trade is done once, the guys begging for a living in the interstellar world can earn a lifetime of benefits.

So even if the two hegemonic civilizations join forces to attack in this star field, it is difficult to completely kill the greedy slave traders.

Every year, many tribesmen are secretly abducted to the outer star field through various channels.

Watching the spaceship, when the starship approached, Han Fei immediately sent a drone team to explore the surface of the crashed spaceship.

These multi-functional drones have different shapes according to their main uses.

Matching each other is enough to complete unmanned operations in harsh environments under remote control.

After the initial inspection, it was confirmed that there was no danger. Without Han Fei's instructions, the bionic crew members had already skillfully issued specific instructions.

As the laser blade on the multi-functional drone lit up, the outer armor of the orbital cabin was melted through, and a passage large enough for the drone to enter was quickly formed.

At the moment the cabin was opened, the multi-functional drone automatically took a defensive posture, but was not impacted by the leaking airflow.

In the bridge of the starship, Han Fei, who was staring at the real-time projection screen, couldn't help but shake his head secretly even though he had guessed this result long ago.

As expected, the orbital cabin that had been stopped for a long time could no longer provide a gravity simulation environment.

The independent ecological circulation system inside could naturally not continue to be maintained, and most plants and animals could hardly survive in such an environment for a long time.

As for the life support cabin, after the energy supply was completely cut off, it was no different from a coffin.

They simply died unconsciously in a dormant state, avoiding the helplessness and despair before death.

Not to mention that this is not a high-end interstellar travel ship, how could it be possible to equip the orbital cabin with a large number of high-end emergency life-support equipment for slaves or stowaways.

As the drone entered the hull and continuously transmitted the real-time images of the cabin, even though Han Fei was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but frown deeply.

In the world of gods, he had seen extremely bloody scenes, but that was ultimately a fight between alien creatures.

At this time, in the prison cells of the spacecraft, humanoid corpses that had long lost their lives were floating quietly.

Because the oxygen in the cabin dissipated too quickly, in the vacuum environment, the expressions of despair and fear on the faces of the corpses that had not decayed were still vivid.

Han Fei could clearly recognize their appearance.

In this ship, nearly half of the people were humans and Longwa people, and the remaining half were all other races in the nearby star field!

What made Han Fei's eyes split was that these prisoners were almost all still in their teens.

The three orbital cabins with the same structure were all like this!

According to a rough estimate, at least more than one million slaves were imprisoned in the numerous prison cells.

Han Fei could sense that there were quite a few individuals with weak traces of divine power remaining on these corpses.

This means that the proportion of young people who have obtained the seeds of gods is definitely not low.

Even though the number of humans and Longwa tribesmen is already in the trillions, the abduction of such a large number of tribesmen is shocking enough.

These are young tribesmen who have not yet opened up the divine domain, and they are all the future of the race!

Such behavior is to trample on the face of the two dominant civilizations and rub them crazily.

At this time, Han Fei couldn't help but close his eyelids slightly, his eyes cold.

As the saying goes, sympathy for one's own kind, even Han Fei, who is extremely rational, couldn't help but feel a surge of evil fire in his heart after seeing the experience of his kind.

"Damn it!"

While spitting out these two words fiercely, Han Fei's mouth corners showed a cold smile.

"How courageous!"

This slave ship uses an outdated design and cheap equipment.

It is not considering the cost at all. This is entirely to avoid being exposed and traced back to the mastermind behind the ship from the traces on the hull.

In this star field, no one can withstand the anger of the two dominant civilizations.

Even other dominant civilizations in neighboring star regions would not want to face the joint revenge of humans and Longwa tribes.

"Expand the search range, search the main body of the axis carefully, don't miss any corner, dig out some useful information for me!"

Keeping a smile that makes people's backs cold, Han Fei's calm humming sounded softly in the bridge.
