Chapter 192 Secret
The star clan member smiled slightly and said:
"I don't have anything to say. I don't care how you deal with me. Anyway, I'm not going back after coming here this time."
After saying that, he shut up again, and even closed his eyes, as if he didn't take Mu Tianlei's threat seriously at all.
Listening to the translation voice coming from the headset, Mu Tianlei did not get angry, and said calmly: "It's not like we haven't captured Heavenly Rank prisoners like you before, but in the end, they will inevitably beg for mercy. Do you know why?"
The Star Clan did not speak.
Although Mu Tianlei was just saying clichés, he did not hesitate when he moved. He stood up immediately, stretched out his hand close to the Star Clan, and directly activated the lightning properties.
Sizzle.
In an instant, countless purple-blue arcs flashed out, approached the star clan, and merged into their bodies.
The body of the Star Clan trembled slightly, but he did not say anything and still maintained a smile.
Li Yi squinted his eyes, activated the micro-electric characteristics, and carefully sensed the activities of the star clan's brain.
Of course, the so-called induction means that he uses the micro-electric characteristics to induce the subtle electrical signal activities of the brain and nerve signals of the star clan, and then judges the brain reaction of the star clan based on the manipulation feedback of the characteristics.
This series of processes is equivalent to using his now proficient divine out-of-body manipulation skills, as well as his rich painting skills, brain science, and neurological knowledge to profile the other party's brain activity.
Because he was so efficient and eliminated too many unnecessary processes, he combined these multiple knowledge and skills into a completely new skill such as micro-induction.
This can be considered as a refined development of micro-electrical characteristics, and it is also one of the skills he has achieved recently after clearing many spires.
Before this, he could judge whether his opponent was lying mainly based on his familiarity with the human brain and his ability to identify the smile muscles on the face.
After a while, Mu Tianlei retracted the lightning properties in his hand and looked at the Star Clan in front of him who seemed to be calm, and was a little surprised.
The physique of this star race is so special that it can even withstand his lightning properties? Although he didn't attack with all his strength, a normal celestial being would be injured if he didn't activate the divine shield, right?
Or is he secretly activating the characteristic to offset it, but the signs are not obvious?
Because humans do not have the means to block the activation of the evolvers' characteristics, so, apart from using special iron chains to temporarily block his movements, they can only rely on the Jupiter mecha next to them to intimidate this heavenly prisoner.
Moreover, the previous battle should have caused enough damage to this star clan.
Li Yi signaled to Mu Tianlei, then turned and left the interrogation room.
Mu Tianlei understood and followed, closing the door: "Why, what do you think?"
Li Yi pondered and said, "Commander Mu, did you use your lightning ability to its full potential just now?"
Mu Tianlei said: "It's probably about 30% to 40% activated."
Li Yi said: "Commander Mu, your lightning properties are effective, but this guy is too thick-skinned to see it. You can't look at this guy the same way you look at humans. Except for a smile, their other parts may not convey emotions."
Mu Tianlei was slightly startled, then nodded and said, "What you said makes some sense, but how can you tell whether he actually reacted or was just holding on?"
Li Yi said: "He seems to be calm and fearless. The subtle features of his body are resisting the micro-electric characteristics. Commander Mu may wish to recall it carefully. Moreover, he seems to be suppressing the idea of responding with his characteristics, hoping to give you the illusion that he is not afraid of any punishment."
Mu Tianlei touched his chin, closed his eyes and recalled. After a while, he suddenly laughed: "Interesting, there are indeed some small moves that I almost missed. In other words, I was almost fooled by this star clan?"
"It seems that this star tribe is actually very afraid of death? They just tricked us just now?"
Li Yi said: "It's not clear whether he is afraid of death, but he must be reacting to your micro-electric characteristics. After all, no matter how extraordinary he is, he is only a heavenly level now, and weaker than you, otherwise he would not be able to control only a 170-meter divine mecha."
"As for his purpose, it depends on whether he wants to manipulate the information and sell it for a good price, or just wants to get his way."
"After all, he is different from those human slaves. He should know that he will not have an easy time in our hands."
"Sir, you can try your best later. If it doesn't work, you can control the divine mecha and do some micromanagement."
Mu Tianlei smiled and said, "You are quite insidious, I like it."
"ah?"
Li Yi's eyes widened as he asked, "Is this insidious? Not at all, sir."
Mu Tianlei didn't respond, but strode in and began to unleash the micro-electric properties with all his strength.
Zizi, crackle! For a moment, the interrogation room was filled with lightning.
In fact, the two of them could have used normal electrical equipment, but the strong man in the Thor sequence was here, and using electrical equipment to electrocute the captives was really an embarrassment to Mu Tianlei.
Therefore, Li Yi did not mention this and let Mu Tianlei play freely.
After a while, Li Yi walked leisurely into the interrogation room and saw a member of the Star Clan whose vertical pupils were trembling continuously and who could no longer withstand the horrible electric shock.
On this basis, the Star Clan finally agreed to recruit.
"Your name! Where you are from, your purpose, everything you know, tell me the truth!"
"Urugin Tuto."
This is a transliterated name. According to the language of the aliens, it should mean a brave man bathing in the stars.
It is probably Zhang San or Li Si of the human race.
Although this might be a pseudonym, the two did not care. It was just a code name. Once they got to know more about this guy, they would be able to slowly break down his psychological defenses and reveal all the information.
After all, this is just the first stage of breaking the ice in the interrogation, making the defendant willing to speak.
After that, the most important thing is to get more information from him.
…
Tuto said calmly: "Yes, it was my master who planned this drifting operation, and I was the person in charge of the operation at that time."
"However, after the operation had been going on for several years, the information they sent to me on a regular basis became less and less frequent, and also intermittent, which put me at risk of being held accountable."
"So I decided to take a risk, control my exclusive Giant God Soldier, enter a dormant state, and follow the signal information they sent, and continue to track them."
"It has also been set up so that as long as the distance is within 30 light seconds, the resuscitation will be triggered."
"So, I just woke up in the last few days. I don't know anything. There's nothing you want to ask."
"Why not just kill me early? That way, both you and I can save trouble and it will be over once and for all, right?"
When he heard the last sentence, Li Yi's eyes lit up slightly, and he finally grasped the real purpose of this star clan.
Li Yi spoke directly in the alien language:
"You want to die quickly, don't you? I can give you that."
When Mu Tianlei saw Li Yi speaking, he did not interrupt. He also wanted to see how Li Yi would perform.
The Star Tribe was surprised and asked, "You can make this decision?"
Li Yi smiled and said, "Of course, but the premise is that I need to get the intelligence and information we need."
The Star Clan smiled slightly and leaned back. Although he was still tied up and the electric shock marks were still there, he acted calmly and said:
"I want to die quickly? What kind of condition is that? Either just kill me directly, or negotiate the terms."
Mu Tianlei grinned: "You've been timid for a while and you're already arrogant again? Are you itching to test my lightning properties?"
Li Yi reached out to stop Mu Tianlei and said with a smile, "Commander Mu, I have something else to say. It won't be too late to talk later."
Mu Tianlei nodded and said, "Okay, it's up to you."
Li Yi stared into Tuto's eyes and smiled:
"Your acting is terrible, Tuto, but I already know your biggest secret."
"I now understand why you dared to drift here alone following the signal."
"Because you have the biggest trump card, if you die here, it doesn't mean you are not really dead, right?"
"Besides, you can't commit suicide. If you do, we will find out."
"And once the clues are discovered, your 'resurrection' with the Star Clan will most likely fail."
"You must seize the opportunity and give your 'resurrection' enough time difference, am I right?"
Every time Li Yi spoke, Tuto's brain and nerve signals would become slightly active, and when Li Yi said the word "resurrection", Tuto's brain instantly turned red and warm, and the reaction was very intense.
At this point, Li Yi has basically confirmed his guess.
The smile on his face became even more unbridled, like a devil: "Your method of 'resurrection' is really bizarre. Is this the innate instinct of your star race, or is it derived from divine technology?"
"I guess it's divine technology, and has little to do with the innate abilities of your Star Clan."
"Your talents are probably natural armor, great strength, and sharp senses, which allow non-evolved people to be comparable to ordinary evolved people, right?"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Mu Tianlei, who was standing next to him, saw Li Yi talking one sentence after another, as if he was really going to overturn the foundation of the picture. He felt a strange feeling in his heart.
"I understand. You are only a medium-level talent among the Star Clan. There are people with stronger talents above you, and they are more suitable for controlling what you call the Giant God Soldier, right?"
Tutuo, who had been holding back his words after being questioned by Li Yi, finally couldn't help himself and shouted, "Since you have the ability to read minds, why do you have to ask so many questions? Either kill me as soon as possible, or stop whispering in my ear. Go away, go away now."
As he spoke, he became even more excited, and directly activated some of the divinity that had recovered in his body, as if he was about to take action directly.
On the other side, the Jupiter mecha, which had been watching the interrogation room for a long time, suddenly swung the B-level Zanpakuken. The sword suddenly brought with it a huge gust of wind, and the huge sword tip like a millstone stabbed out from top to bottom and stopped in front of Tuto.
Whoosh!!! The moment it stopped, the air waves rolled up, the tabletop was shaken continuously, and the connecting screws below kept making a rattling sound.
At this moment, Lin Wendong's precise sword skills were also fully demonstrated.
As expected, Tuto stopped moving in front of the sword tip and stood still as if he was frozen in place.
The scene was suddenly quiet.
Li Yi smiled and said, "Tuto, you didn't dare to flip the table and attack with all your strength because you were afraid that your body would be instantly destroyed by our divine mecha, causing your 'resurrection' to fail, right?"
Tuto didn't say anything, but Li Yi knew that he had guessed right again.
When he figured out Tuto's brain reactions, Tuto no longer had any secrets in front of him.
Of course, this does not mean that Li Yi has a high enough understanding of the brain of the Star Clan. It is just that after Mu Tianlei's stimulating attempts and the questioning and examination just now, he finally established a set of precise recognition logic for Tuto.
To achieve this, he relied on the rich life experience brought by memory fragments, which also played a significant role.
Of course, the most important thing is the micro-manipulation of micro-electrical characteristics.
…
Li Yi asked all the questions that could be asked, such as the internal power structure of the aliens, the purpose of drifting, and all kinds of questions that could be asked.
Of course, his interrogation method will only be more effective if he asks the right pain points and keywords.
If you ask questions that the other person is not interested in or does not care about, the other person may not respond at all, or forcibly block out these messages.
Therefore, some questions that are too detailed cannot be asked. If you ask them, the character's setting will collapse and it will be impossible to trick more information out.
We can only confirm it later from the mouths of those human slaves.
By the time all the information was extracted from Tuto, the interrogation had lasted more than four hours.
Afterwards, they knocked Tuto unconscious again and asked Zhou Bingying to come over and freeze his entire body.
Then put it into a hibernation capsule, keep a close eye on it the whole time, and seal it off until it is transported to the border planet and interrogated by another group of experts.
After completing all this, several people in charge of the interrogation came over again to review the situation.
Mu Tianlei asked: "Li Yi, what you mean is that the Star Clan used some kind of divine equipment to achieve a function that can revive the dead and resurrect the Heavenly Rank strongmen?"
Li Yi nodded and said, "Almost. Some of them are my guesses based on Tuto's reactions. They may not be completely correct, but this is generally the case."
"Of course, the principle is unclear, but what is certain is that the body must not be too damaged after death, and the time limit should be within 5 minutes. As for the method, it may be a means of soul information transmission or something like that, but I'm not sure."
Mu Tianlei said: "In the question you just asked, wasn't there another one saying that suicide is also a restriction?"
Li Yi said: "The main reason for suicide is that we might discover the secrets of the Star Clan, and even when he is resurrected, his body might show abnormalities, causing us to directly destroy his resurrection. That's why he didn't commit suicide directly when he saw Captain Lin driving the mecha and ready for battle."
"In fact, he could commit suicide at any time, but he was worried that his resurrection would go wrong after committing suicide."
Zhou Bingying said, "That's not right. Didn't he ask you to give him a quick death? Isn't your guess contradictory?"
Li Yi shook his head and said, "No, because Tuto knows very well that if a Heavenly Rank expert like him commits suicide, we will definitely examine his body carefully to prevent him from faking his death. Therefore, he would never dare to commit suicide under our noses."
"He also knows very well that we won't really kill him before we have really squeezed out all the intelligence. He said so much about wanting to be quick, just to give us a false impression that he has long wanted to die.
"After that, he just needs to wait until we are out of sight for too long, or even in the middle of thawing, to complete his suicide."
"As long as he seizes this time difference, even if he really committed suicide, we won't have any more doubts, or even destroy his body at the critical moment of his resurrection."
"Moreover, it is more likely that we are completely behind the times. By the time we find out that he has successfully committed suicide, he has already successfully resurrected in the Star Tribe."
Zhou Bingying was dumbfounded after hearing these words:
"Oh, it does make sense, but isn't it a little too convoluted?"
Mu Tianlei smiled and said, "I understand. Tuto's repeated attempts to provoke me, including his compromise and subsequent arrogance, were all acting! He tried to provoke us in order to make his injuries more reasonable. This way, when we take him for treatment, especially when he is placed in the medical cabin, that will be his greatest chance, isn't it?"
Li Yi nodded and said, "That's about it. In short, there are many opportunities, and he can find ways to create them. There are many ways."
"By the way, the reason why I was able to make this judgment is because I checked the situation of the Tianwei prisoners in the Tianheng Star War before coming to interrogate them."
"After all, the Tianheng Star War happened more than a decade ago. However, humans still have a very superficial understanding of aliens. This has caused me a lot of doubts. I am worried that I will encounter the same difficulties during this interrogation."
Mu Tianlei suddenly spoke up: "When you mentioned this, I remembered that in the Tianheng Star War, a total of twelve Tianwei masters of the Star Clan were captured. These people did not reveal anything during the interrogation. When they were imprisoned later, they had already quietly committed suicide."
"So from that time on, we also gave up the original method of detention and switched to severe injury + freezing."
…
The matter of the drifting mecha corps may seem like a trivial episode, but in fact, it has profoundly changed mankind's understanding of the internal conditions of alien civilizations.
Originally, human beings' knowledge of alien civilizations came mainly from the Tu tribe and a small number of the Star tribe.
Moreover, each has its own omissions and shortcomings.
Now that we have these groups of captives without ideological stamps, the information we can obtain is undoubtedly more accurate and richer.
Although these sources of information are from more than two hundred years ago, their reference value is obviously higher than that obtained from various sources before.
Just like that, after completing the interrogation, Li Yi and his group returned to the southern ruins to complete the last few days of exploration.
And on the last day, set out to return to the border star.
