Chapter 427 The Torture King and the Imperial Apostle
Ma Zhongfei was a little confused by Ren Zhong's slightly hip-hop attitude.
But Ren Zhong's next sentence made him feel secretly happy.
Ren Zhong put away the killing knife in his hand, "Since the performance of each of you has met my expectations and met my expectations, I have decided not to kill any of you for now, how about that?"
The eight old popsicles looked at each other, and they all suppressed the joy on their faces, only showing their grateful side.
They were all counting the time. From the time Ren Zhong led the team outside the white ball, almost an hour had passed.
The super-level professional Ice Guard has already reached the halfway point on his return journey. He is almost there and he is almost able to survive.
Ren Zhong on the other side: "Are you happy? You should be grateful for my kindness."
The pale Ying Feng next to him said with a trembling voice: "Yes, thank you for your kindness."
Ren Zhong: "You're welcome, I should."
After saying that, Ren Zhong winked at Ying Feng.
Ying Feng felt calm after seeing this, and a strong feeling of surviving the disaster emerged in his heart.
Let’s take another look at the “meat” of the founder of Tianlong Hi-Tech.
Sparing this man half his life brought him a surprise.
But in a sense, this is not a surprise, it is just inevitable under his planning.
Ren Zhong had guessed this possibility in advance before taking action.
This is too routine.
He never fights an unprepared battle.
He also has too much time to figure out and analyze the status of these old popsicles.
First of all, since these nine people are the actual controllers sent by the Empire to Source Star, they must maintain some contact with the Empire.
This connection may be proof of identity that they can produce when they return to the empire, it may also be some secret code for contact with other people sent by the empire, and it may also be the control of a super device like the "Net".
No matter what kind of information it is, it is important.
And Ren Zhong also speculated on human nature and read that in order to maintain control and prevent internal strife among outgoing staff from causing mission failure, Ren Zhong must split the complete "code" into nine parts, and then let these nine parts
People grasp each one separately, and neither one can exist without the other.
Now it seems that the identification code and apostle code of "Net" do operate in this way.
At this time, Ren Zhong also speculated that there should be two versions of the apostle code. What he saw so far was a version in which one of the nine people mastered a section. If it was a real apostle of the empire, it is likely that he had mastered another more complete code.
Even if some staff members die accidentally and the code is missing, the verification can still be completed.
As for the identification code of "Net", there should also be dual plans to prevent accidental systemic collapse.
But this is no longer important. What is important is that he successfully used a small trick to "kill" only half of the founder of Tianlong Hi-Tech, and completely broke through the heart wall of the nine old popsicles.
Next, start the next stage, isolation interrogation.
The restraint nets covering the old popsicles continued to expand and became tight, dragging everyone to the ground, forming a neat arrangement of eight mummies and a still living brain flower.
At the same time, the restraint nets blocked these people's mouths, eyes, noses, and ears, completely blocking their channels of communication with each other. They could only rely on the brainwave synchronization system provided by Ren Zhong to communicate with the outside world.
Next, Ren Zhong asked questions to nine people at the same time, and the content of the questions was slightly different.
Except for Ying Feng and Ma Zhongfei, the other six people received the same question at the same time.
"Hand over the identification code and apostle code of the 'Net'."
What Ying Feng received was, "Hand over the identification code of 'Net'."
What Ma Zhongfei received was, "Hand over the apostle code."
Now that Ren Zhong has given clear requirements, things have become more complicated.
Immediately, some people realized the seriousness of the problem and guessed that they could drag it down with their words to wait for rescue.
Because, even if the founder of Tianlong Hi-Tech has "died", this information is still valuable to Ren Zhong.
So, as long as Ren Zhong wants to dig out this information, he must not take his own life.
As for whether Ren Zhong might torture people by forcing them to confess?
Haha, as long as he doesn't really kill me, I can torture him however he wants.
The frozen elders thought very well, and even invariably began to imagine what it would be like to wait until rescue arrived and capture Ren Zhong alive.
Well, when the time comes, we must torture this guy so hard that he will not be able to survive but die.
Unfortunately, it is a pity that what they encountered was a master of coercing confessions.
At the same time, they also overestimate their own will.
Ren Zhong taught them what the real torture king is.
He first activated the biopharmaceutical device in his net bag and injected neurological stimulants into everyone including Ying Feng who had a broken hand, Barton Augustus who had a broken leg, and the founder of Tianlong Hi-Tech who only had his brain left.
, amplifying the pain perception ability of these people's brains a thousand times.
Then, Ren Zhong will inject the medicine that causes continuous stinging into the cervical spine or brain of these people.
Once upon a time, Ren Zhong would not do such a thing of torture and extorting a confession. This was not in line with his standards of conduct.
But after dying and resurrecting too many times, even though he has tried very hard to maintain his humanity, he has still changed.
As mentioned before, Ren Zhong has maintained half of his emotions, that is, his emotional sustenance for his own people, but he has become more restrained.
When facing the enemy, he no longer has even a trace of sympathy and soft-heartedness.
He became a pure cold-blooded monster.
When he was in Chongyi County, Ren Zhong witnessed too many tragedies directly caused by the Wang family and his son, and also saw those playthings that had been transformed into inhuman beings. He was ignited with anger in order to dig out more information from Wang Jinshou's mouth.
, showed his "creativity" as a scientific researcher, and used these creativity to torture people.
Now, Ren Zhong has become smarter, more cold-blooded, and his methods of torturing people will only increase.
He has countless ways to continuously amplify the pain these old popsicles feel at this time, while at the same time preventing them from cardiac arrest, fainting or death due to excessive pain stimulation.
It only lasted ten minutes, and the founder of Tianlong Hi-Tech, who had only one head left, broke down first and expressed his willingness to confess and be lenient.
Ren Zhong was also cautious. Before accepting the other party's information package, he gave the other party a shot of truth serum and brought out a set of icosahedral crystal structures in front of the other party.
This twenty-sided crystal is the relic given to Ren Zhong by Xiao Xingyue.
Even though Xiao Xingyue was puzzled, she still followed Ren Zhong's request and burned a complete set of standardized operating procedures into the crystal, and injected enough mental information flow to be used nine times.
Ren Zhong activated the crystal and combined it with the help of the powerful Veritaserum. It worked as expected, and the opponent took action.
Three minutes later, Ren Zhong received the information packet resent from the founder of Tianlong Hi-Tech.
After reading the information package and comparing it with the two pieces of information previously given by Ying Feng and Ma Zhongfei to confirm its authenticity, Ren Zhong gave this poor brainiac a good start.
Of course, the other eight people had no idea at all.
After that, Ren Zhong spent more than an hour in total to collect enough information from the other eight people and sent them back to the west one after another.
Next, Ren Zhong originally planned to sit here and quietly strengthen his memory of the two codes, while re-planning the arrangements for the next month in his mind.
He already had some idea in his mind.
He planned to continue living first, try to do something interesting with the "net" that was out of control, and also try to do something with his status as the newly promoted apostle of the empire.
It's a pity that God did not fulfill his wishes.
Before he could relax, a piercing alarm sounded inside the white ball.
He stood up suddenly, and Chi Fengjia's communication device gave him two important messages in succession.
First, the drop-shaped ship left outside has been destroyed, indicating that the super-level ice professionals who obeyed the cryonic elders have returned.
Second, due to the death of all nine elders, the seeker spacecraft, the highest alert order inside the white ball, has been activated. The white ball's friend-or-foe identification system immediately set him as an intruder, and carried out this information to the entire civilization.
Notice, the highest alert state has been activated again.
In this highest alert state, the Tracer spacecraft determined that it had been captured and completely occupied. In order to prevent the Empire's technology from falling into the hands of the enemy, it had initiated a self-destruction procedure.
The responsible Chi Feng Jia immediately detected the ultra-high energy reaction nearby.
With no time to think, he just relied on instinct and dragged his tired body back.
Just when he arrived at the hall where he defeated the 001 killing machine, he noticed a violent vibration under his feet. Looking back, he saw a terrifying scorching light like a star's corona coming from behind.
At the beginning, it was just light, not very hot yet.
But Ren Zhong already knew that he had no way to escape.
He simply walked to the elevator platform where other comrades were killed, looked around, crossed his legs, and sat on the ground.
There was a smile on his face.
very good.
very good.
I can still keep my perfectionist status.
Bang!
Ren Zhong expertly completed his self-destruction before the ultra-high-energy heat reached his body.
…
Wake up again.
Just like the nearly 4,000 previous resurrections, he was still sitting next to Ying Hao, accompanying the ambitious contemporary helmsman of Yuanxing Military Industry in holding a war declaration conference.
In the spacious and bright conference room, diplomats from all walks of life and many reporters who worked part-time with Xiao Xingyue raised their heads slightly and looked at Ying Hao in amazement.
What happened next was no different from the past.
Ren Zhong returned to Spark Town that afternoon.
On the way back, he once again completed the information transfer with higher efficiency, passing important information to Ju Qingmeng, Qian Wangshen, Sun Miao and Hua Yuelan respectively.
There was only one slight change. This time he only asked Qian Wangshen to design a smaller version of the teardrop-shaped shuttle.
Yes, he plans to go alone.
He doesn't need so many helpers anymore.
After handling these more important matters with extremely high efficiency, Ren Zhong was rarely free again.
He went to the training ground again.
Yu Chengde, Song Muen and others are over there.
Even though no help was needed this time, Ren Zhong still approached Ying Hao to recruit Yu Chengde and others.
There is no other reason. It is helping the Ma family and his daughter find their relatives, and at the same time it is helping Yu Chengde get rid of his obsession.
When Ren Zhong arrived, Yu Chengde was still teaching Ma Xiaoling, his newly recognized... great-granddaughter.
Ma Dafu came over again skillfully.
"It's incredible..."
Ren Zhong opened his mouth and grabbed Lao Ma's words, "The mystery of fate and the chance of life really make people feel at a loss. I probably won't live for a few more years. I can see Mr. Yu before I die, so forget it."
With this obsession passed down from my father’s generation, my life is considered complete.”
Ma Dafu: "Ah?"
Ren Zhong smiled, "Ah what?"
The fat on Lao Ma's face trembled, "How do you know what I'm thinking? I just thought about it for a long time, and then I felt that this is the most expressive way of saying it. You're making me don't even know what to say!"
Ren Zhong looked at Lao Ma's aggrieved and speechless look, and recalled in his mind the very dignified look he had when dealing with him when he first entered Xinghuo Town, and couldn't help but laugh: "It's okay, I
Just understand what you mean."
Ma Dafu hummed, was silent for a moment, and then sighed: "I think you are really a monster."
"How to say?"
"You can even see through other people's psychological activities. Aren't you a monster? I can't believe there are people in the world who can deceive you."
Hearing this, Ren Zhong turned to look at Ma Xiaoling over there, and subconsciously shook his head, "Don't believe it, there are really people who can do it."
Ma Dafu: "Who?"
Ren Zhong stopped answering.
After a while, Ren Zhong patted Ma Dafu on the shoulder and whispered, "Don't let Ma Xiaoling know about the electronically controlled crystal. Even if she doesn't have this thing, she will become stronger than me and more powerful than Mr. Yu sooner or later."
powerful."
Madafu's eyes widened and his mouth opened wide.
He wanted to ask how Ren Zhong knew. But he immediately thought about it. He had been completely seen through by Ya, and knew that the electronically controlled crystal was also normal.
Ren Zhong: "By the way, Lao Ma. Let me ask you another question."
"What?"
Ren Zhong: "You said, on the Origin Star, a person like me only has one spouse and has no children. Is there a problem?"
Ma Dafu replied without hesitation: "Of course. After all, human lifespan is limited and the time to wake up is limited. No matter how much you pay attention to extending your life, you will eventually have to be frozen. You must have a descendant of your blood to pass on your will.
, everyone will feel more at ease. It’s just that everyone knows your temper and dare not suggest anything to you.”
Ren Zhong hummed, "I understand."
"What do you understand?"
"If there's nothing wrong, I'll leave first."
Madafu: "Wait!"
Ren Zhong turned around and said, "Old Ma, stop struggling. Your daughter is old enough and it's time to get married."
…
Outside the white ball, the water droplet shuttle was parked quietly.
At this time, he was not wearing red armor, but a unique red robe.
A cape-like robe hung behind him, and on his shoulders were two huge shield-like locks.
He wears a round hoop made of special alloy.
At this time, his dressing style is eighty-nine times similar to that of Lao Bingluo, except that the clothing style is more exquisite.
This is the attire of the Empire's apostle, which Ren Zhong extracted from the information about the local conditions and customs related to the Mechanical Empire provided by the old popsicles.
From now on, he is no longer a native of the Source Star, but an apostle from a distant empire.
