Chapter 80
Seeing that Romilda was still hiding in the safety cabin pretending to be dead, Fu Qin simply dismantled the safety cabin and pulled Romilda out.
At this time, Ye Mingluo also came over.
After Fu Qin pinned Shattered Shadow down, he understood why Fu Qin had kicked him: "Wow, isn't this the leader of Dark River? Was he trying to sneak attack me just now?"
Romilda did not answer. She stood between the two mechas and seemed to have given up resistance.
Surrounded by two mechas over three meters high, Romilda looked pitifully small.
But Fu Qin did not look down on her for this.
This is a Zerg mutant with both strong mental and physical strength. She is a monster that will not die even if her head is chopped off.
Fu Qin didn't bother beating around the bush with her and asked directly, "Where is Luce?"
If she hadn't thought of Luce's involvement in the whole thing by now, she would be really stupid.
As soon as he saw the broken shadows, Fu Qin immediately thought of what Moran had said: behind the Dark River was the Luce family of the third galaxy.
Romilda herself had also extended an olive branch to Fuqin on behalf of Luce.
In addition, Goethe, who appeared together, seemed to have been captured and recruited by Luce.
Fu Qin didn't believe that Luce was not behind this.
Seeing that Romilda still didn't answer, Fu Qin repeated, "Where is Luce?"
Hearing this, Romilda raised her head and looked at Bai Hao.
Her long, silver-white hair was stained with blood, draped over her shoulders in a messy, tangled mess. Her combat uniform was also soaked with blood, sticking to her skin, making her look extremely disheveled.
But in response to Fu Qin's question, Romilda looked directly in Bai Hao's direction, her icy blue eyes devoid of fear. "I don't know."
Since she had already been caught, she might as well give up completely.
Seeing this, Fu Qin was too lazy to say any more words.
She opened Bai Hao's escape hatch and looked Romilda straight in the eye. "One last time, where is Luce?"
This time, Fu Qin used his mental power.
Under the influence of Fuqin, Romilda's face first showed obvious resistance, then her pupils gradually became dilated and her expression became dull.
She opened her mouth and uttered a name: "C-146 Star."
C-146 is the private property of Anthony Luce and the most inconspicuous of the many planets he owns. It is so inconspicuous that it has not even been renamed and still uses the numerical names used by the Federation for undeveloped planets.
If it weren't for Romilda, it would have been difficult for Fu Qin and the others to lock onto this planet in the first place.
"Okay, thank you, you can rest now." As soon as Fu Qin finished speaking, Romilda suddenly lost consciousness, fell to the ground and fainted.
Fu Qin looked at Ye Mingluo and said, "Keep an eye on her. I'll be back soon."
Ye Mingluo, who had suddenly been entrusted with an important task, was still in shock: "What? General, where are you going?"
Before he could finish his words, Fu Qin had already driven Bai Hao straight up, passed through the blocking net, and disappeared from everyone's sight, leaving only Ye Mingluo with a confused look on his face.
Ye Mingluo suddenly had a bad feeling: Could it be that their general was planning to attack Luce's base camp alone?!
hiss--
If it's a quilt, it's really possible!
The moment this thought came to his mind, Ye Mingluo almost followed suit.
But thinking that there was Romilda beside him who needed his attention, he had to force himself to stop.
Chen Xingyu, standing by, was eager to try. "Did Teacher Fu go to Planet C-146? Should we follow him?"
Ye Mingluo glanced at him and said, "Why are you following him? Are you going to die?"
Ye Mingluo knew with just a thought that the C-146 planet must be heavily guarded and not easy to break into.
Moreover, if their main force followed, a large group of people would be too conspicuous. If they were discovered and prepared, wouldn't it be even more difficult to deal with them?
Chen Xingyu scratched his head when he heard this, "So are we just going to stay here?"
Ye Mingluo thought for a moment and pointed at the unconscious Romilda on the ground. "Tie her up first, tie her up tightly and lock her up. Stay where you are and wait. I'll go ask the marshal for instructions."
Chen Xingyu: “Yes!”
The blocking network could not receive signals from the outside world, so Ye Mingluo sent a message to Song Tingyun only after he left the range of the blocking network.
But unfortunately, the investiture ceremony on the capital planet has not yet ended.
Under the live camera, Song Tingyun had no time to check the information on the optical computer.
It was half an hour later when he saw Ye Mingluo's message.
Ye Mingluo's message was simple and clear:
A Pound of Salted Fish: The fish has taken the bait. It's the Dark River leader. The general has already rushed to Luce's base camp. Marshal, what do you say?
The moment Song Tingyun saw the news, his hands trembled. He was as frightened as when he received the news that Fu Qin broke into the imperial celebration and chopped off the emperor's head.
At that moment, Song Tingyun even thought about the feasibility of rushing to help.
But unfortunately, it takes at least a day and a half to travel from the capital planet to the third galaxy. By the time he arrived, the opportunity was already gone.
There was no other way, so Song Tingyun had to call Ye Mingluo to find out about the situation there.
After knowing that Romilda had also become a double SSS, Song Tingyun's face darkened.
The current situation is different from that of twenty years ago. Back then, the number of mutants was fixed. Killing one less mutant would mean one less. As long as all of them were killed, the entire galaxy could be liberated.
But now the number of mutants is increasing, and even after infection they can significantly improve their physical and mental strength, turning double SS into double SSS, which means they will be even more difficult to deal with.
As for Anthony Luce...
Luce responded to the military's call early on and underwent genetic screening, and the results showed that he was not infected.
Although Song Tingyun had some doubts about him and included him in the monitoring list of the Chengying Corps, until today, the Chengying Corps that monitored his computer had not found any problems with him.
So, it turns out that he was really colluding with the Zerg mutants?
That way, some things could be explained.
Anthony Luce was extremely powerful in the Third Galaxy, and there were people everywhere who flattered him, so it was not surprising that he knew some news from the military.
Moreover, you have to know that Anthony Luce's former father-in-law was Duke Davis, the Prime Minister of the Interstellar Empire and one of the first generation of Zerg mutants.
The story of how Luce killed Davis for the sake of justice is still being praised today.
Thinking of this, a terrifying guess immediately popped up in Song Tingyun's mind.
It is known that they did indeed wipe out all the Zerg mutants back then, and several nationwide screenings can also confirm this.
So Song Tingyun has been puzzled as to how the second generation of mutants came into being.
But what if Davis hadn’t died?
However, Song Tingyun soon overturned this speculation on his own.
Because it was he who personally received Luce who came to surrender.
Luce offered Davis's head as a token of surrender.
Song Tingyun confirmed that it was indeed Davis and that Davis was dead, so he accepted Luce.
Song Tingyun also asked about Davis's body parts, and Luce said that he had destroyed them.
Song Tingyun and his team would also destroy the bodies of the mutants after killing them, so he accepted this statement directly and did not ask any more questions.
But now it seems that if Luce did not destroy Davis's body, but hid it instead, and secretly used it for illegal experiments, it seems not impossible.
Is it possible that the current second generation is the product of his research?
Song Tingyun immediately thought of this new possibility.
Seeing Song Tingyun's serious expression after communicating with Ye Mingluo, Mo Lan couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Is there an accident on Planet C-098?"
Song Tingyun shook his head, briefly repeated Ye Mingluo's words, and then expressed his own guess.
Zhou Xu heard this and after a moment's silence, he said, "Theoretically, it's possible, but the feasibility is not high."
Before the second generation of mutants appeared, Zhou Xu had always believed that Zerg mutants could not infect humans.
Because more than 20 years ago, in addition to him, many biological scholars had also studied the causes of the emergence of a generation of mutants.
They tried a series of common infection routes, including blood transmission, digestive tract transmission and respiratory tract transmission, and did not find any mutations in the experimental mice.
As for the cause of infection of the first generation of mutants, scholars can only speculate that it is related to the Zerg Queen who was eaten that year, but no conclusion can be reached.
After all the Zerg mutants were killed, the research was forced to terminate as the unknown microorganisms in their bodies quickly died.
It was not until the second generation appeared that Zhou Xu discovered that the second generation had a higher content of microorganisms in their blood and could infect other organisms through blood transmission.
Therefore, he suspected that the cause of the second-generation infection was related to these microorganisms.
However, the period from Davis's death to the death of all the microorganisms in his body was not long. It was very difficult, almost impossible, to create a second-generation mutant in such a short period of time.
This is also the reason why Zhou Xu feels that the feasibility is low.
"But I also agree that the emergence of the second generation of mutants is related to Luce." Zhou Xu concluded.
After listening to Zhou Xu's explanation, Song Tingyun recalled the details of that year again, and always felt that he might have missed something.
Perhaps the only way to find out the truth about the second generation is to break into Luce's house and find out.
Thinking of this, Song Tingyun turned on his light brain and made a voice call to Fu Qin.
Fu Qin received it very quickly.
"Where are you now?" Song Tingyun asked.
"On the transport ship bound for planet C-146." Fu Qin replied.
After leaving C-098, she spent some time finding a transport ship belonging to the Luce family. After confirming that the ship was bound for C-146 to deliver supplies, Fu Qin took advantage of their break in the space station to sneak in.
At this moment, Fu Qin was hiding in the storage room of the transport ship, ready to knock out the first lucky person who came in, and then pretend to be him to sneak into the C-146 planet.
Hearing this, although he knew the answer, Song Tingyun still asked: "If I ask you to retreat now, will you listen?"
"No." Fu Qin answered decisively.
Song Tingyun sighed.
really.
