Chapter 428 Cursed Ship

No one could refuse the Inquisitor's request. Soon, the hatch of the planetary cracker opened, and Duanmu Huai drove the Night Crow Black Star slowly into it. Then he turned his head and looked at the people behind him.

"Here, I want to remind you that from now on, you are my servants, the Great Inquisitor Duan Muhuai. You must not doubt or even object to any of my words. Simply put, you must obey them unconditionally.

Do you understand my order?"

"This... is good."

Although they didn’t know why Duanmu Huai said this, the girls nodded obediently. Of course, for the sake of safety, Duanmu Huai asked them all to put on cloaks and masks, then opened the hatch and walked out of the night crow.

black Star.

At this moment, on the tarmac, a man with oily face and powdery face, whose hair seemed to have not been washed properly in several years, was standing there, looking at Duanmuhuai uneasily. When he saw the rosette on Duanmuhuai's chest, this man looked like

The effeminate man almost rolled his eyes and passed away, but he still took out his handkerchief, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, hurriedly came to Duanmu Huai, and lowered his head humbly.

"Huan, welcome to the Iron Hammer. Dear Judge, I am Murphy, the captain of the Iron Hammer. This... Is there anything I can do for you?"

"Report your situation."

Duanmuhuai strode forward without even looking at the captain.

"I want to know what this ship is doing here now, and what you have done."

"This, of course... As you can see, the Iron Hammer is a planet cracking ship. We are doing planet cracking and refining work here... We pull the strata on the planet's surface through gravity cables and then break them down.

, explore the mineral deposits and refine them, this... We have complete imperial procedures, the USS is a regular imperial enterprise, we absolutely do not..."

"You don't need to tell me this. I can see it with my own eyes."

Duanmuhuai interrupted the captain's words unceremoniously. The latter's body trembled suddenly, and then he lowered his head. Duanmuhuai, on the other hand, looked around and walked towards the captain's room. At the same time, he began to think carefully.

What happened on this ship?

Logically speaking, if something happened to a human empire warship, it was either desecrated by evil gods, invaded by Zerg, or it might have encountered subspace erosion and storms. But if this is the case, then they will not form soul fragments, but

It will be directly absorbed into the subspace domain of the evil god.

Since this battleship has soul fragments, it means that this ship must have encountered some kind of unimaginable problem.

However, these problems... have nothing to do with demons and aliens?

Could it be that heretics are causing trouble?

After arriving at the captain's room, Duanmu Huai looked at the captain and asked.

"Has anything strange happened on your ship?"

"this……………"

Hearing Duanmuhuai's inquiry, the captain shook his head.

"Sorry, Lord Inquisitor, I did not receive any report..."

"I need all the reports, including the recent entry and exit records of this ship, the records of mineral collection, and the recent casualties of the crew. Also, find someone who is familiar with this ship. This place has been commandeered by the Inquisition.

,you understand me."

"Of course...I'll go now, please wait..."

After leaving these words, the captain left in a hurry, while Duanmu Huai sat on the magnificent sofa with his eyes closed and meditated. Ogis sat on the left side of his shoulder, Lani sat on the right side, An and Gu

Leia sat on both sides, looking around uneasily.

Duanmu Huai didn't open his eyes until there was silence all around.

"How's it going? What did you find?"

"I didn't notice any special fluctuations in this place."

Lani shook her head, while Ann gave the same answer, and Gu Leiya hesitated.

"I don't know, I always have a bad feeling... This place seems weird..."

Duanmuhuai didn't speak. He squinted his eyes and tapped his fingers lightly on the table in front of him. Ever since he entered the battleship, he had a strange feeling. It was a nervous and exciting feeling. It was like

What kind of dangers will you encounter, but the things that are related to you are the same.

"Mr. Knight, do you think...what happened to this battleship? That it was destroyed?"

An lowered her voice and asked softly.

"At the moment? I'm not sure. Generally speaking, this situation is either infected with some kind of plague, or it may be an attack by outsiders or an invasion of Zerg. In fact, I am more inclined to think that these guys may have dug up something."

Something to dig out.”

Duanmu Huai thinks that the last one is more likely. After all, to create a world of soul fragments, it requires an instantaneous explosion that exceeds the endurance limit, just like when certain values ​​exceed the critical point and cause the computer to crash. If it is a plague or a Zerg invasion, obviously

It cannot reach this strength, and if it is an evil god, it will be swallowed directly into the subspace.

So...it's more likely that primitive people dug up a nuclear bomb and then exploded it...and the world was clean.

perhaps.

Not long after, the knock on the door rang again, and then the captain walked in and handed a document to Duanmu Huai respectfully. The latter took the document and began to read it quickly.

Judging from the report, this planetary cracking ship is quite regular. Every three months, a transport team will come here to transport supplies, and at the same time transport away the refined minerals and raw materials. At other times, this planetary cracking ship is

Act according to the company's instructions. Overall, judging from these records, there is nothing special...

Duanmu Huai looked at the line of records below and frowned.

"Fifteen miners died unexpectedly three days ago? What was the reason?"

"Those idiots got the program wrong."

When talking about this topic, the captain was also speechless.

"They were supposed to replace the previous shift of workers to perform maintenance and repair work on the gravity cable. However, when changing maintenance suits, one of them opened the cabin door without pressurization, causing an unimaginable leak in the entire cabin.

and explosion - thanks to them, I had to stop work and make repairs until everything was normal again. Fortunately I asked a lawyer and in this case it was not considered a work injury and no compensation was required."

"Logically speaking, the hatch cannot be opened without pressurization."

"I don't know about that, maybe there's something wrong somewhere."

"Is there any video of that time?"

"certainly."

The captain nodded.

"This is evidence that the company will seek compensation from them in the future."

As he spoke, the captain came to the terminal and opened it. Soon, an image appeared in front of Duanmu Huai. In the image, in the locker room, a group of miners were changing maintenance clothes, and then only one of them was seen.

After changing into maintenance clothes, as if sleepwalking, he slowly walked to the cabin door, then reached out and pressed the button. Then, accompanied by a piercing alarm, other workers who were changing maintenance clothes also saw this scene

, they either shouted to stop the guy, or put on protective clothing in a hurry.

Unfortunately, it was too late. At the next moment, the entire hatch suddenly burst open, and the workers were immediately sucked out and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"etc."

Duanmuhuai stretched out his hand and pointed at one foot of the screen—one foot could be vaguely seen among the messy debris.

"Are there survivors?"

"Yes, he is Keller, the foreman of this class, but he is crazy."

"crazy?"

"Yes."

The captain nodded.

"He was wearing protective clothing, so he escaped. But after we rescued him, he kept talking nonsense. The doctor thought he might have been too stimulated and suffered a mental disorder, so he was given an injection.

Tranquilizer. But the effect is not ideal…………”

"I want to see him."

Duanmu Huai put down the report.

"Where is he?"

"In the intensive care unit of the medical area... I will send someone to take you there."

Soon, a man who looked like the captain's deputy appeared in front of Duanmuhuai. He lowered his head and did not dare to look at Duanmuhuai. He just led them deep into the battleship and took the elevator through.

After passing several areas, the group arrived at the medical area.

And here, Duanmu Huai finally met the man the captain said was crazy.

At this moment, he was locked in a room, his whole body was tightly bound with restraints, and even his mouth was gagged.

"How is this going?"

Duanmuhuai looked at the doctor next to him, who spread his hands helplessly.
