The crew members woke up one by one, and then heard the announcement that they were captured. They didn't believe Chu Jungui's words at first, and they were so grumpy that they rushed directly to the captain's area, trying to capture such a bold guy alive. The crew did not think that they had been invaded by a foreign enemy. Maybe it was just that someone was overly depressed and suddenly did something to vent his emotions.
But after they jumped up, they did not fly away, but fell heavily to the ground and could not get up again. It was only then that they discovered that the armor had turned off its power at some point. Without auxiliary power, even in a low-gravity environment, a heavy armor weighing several hundred kilograms is still not easily affordable.
The crew tried to restart the power, but found that even their personal terminals were locked, and that's when they really started to panic. The transfer of low-level authority means that life and death in the space environment are in the hands of human beings. Chu Jungui does not have to do anything. He can freeze everyone to death as long as he cools down the cabin.
After a brief commotion, the crew members calmed down and waited for the next step.
"I am Chu Jungui, agent of the Shengtang Special Operations Department. You can choose to join us or continue the journey as a prisoner of war. However, I declare in advance that under this current special environment, any rights of the prisoners cannot be guaranteed. . Now, I will give you the basic motivation, and then I need you to return to your posts, continue your original work, and execute my orders."
Following Chu Jungui's voice, the crew's personal terminals were unlocked and a few functions appeared. The battle armor also restored its auxiliary power, but it was maintained at the lowest level and could not make offensive tactical actions. All functions related to the Warframe and weapons are locked.
Only then did the crew truly realize their situation and that they were indeed captured.
The patrol ship did not continue to approach the landing craft, but turned around and flew towards another patrol ship parked in the distance. The landing craft had already separated from the transport ship. Seeing the patrol ship flying away, the captain was shocked and shouted on the communication channel: "What are you doing? Don't leave us here! Damn it, come back, come back!"
There was only noise in the communication channel and no response at all.
The captain punched the console hard, took a breath, and then said: "Return to the ship and dock with the transport ship again. There may be some supplies on board, which can keep us going for a while."
Landing craft generally only move around patrol ships, so they don't bring much supplies and their energy reserves are quite limited. After losing the patrol ship base, you can't survive in space for a few days. Especially since they are not far from the storm clouds now, if a storm breaks out, they may be swept into the storm clouds. That must be ten deaths but no life.
The patrol ship gradually moved away and approached another patrol ship on the high orbit.
"No. 2 calls No. 1. Did you encounter any problems? Why don't you recover the landing craft?"
Chu Jungui opened the communication channel and said: "Our recovery berth is malfunctioning and we need your engineering staff to come and help repair it. The landing craft will not be able to support it for long."
"Don't worry, they can survive at least a day. It just doesn't taste good, haha!"
"I will tell them this later, after we are within communication distance."
The captain of the No. 2 ship on the screen laughed a few times, cut off communication, and then sent a positioning beam to start docking.
During the whole process, the captain of the No. 1 ship stood beside Chu Jungui and saw with his own eyes that the familiar captain of the No. 2 ship turned a blind eye to him and had no doubts about Chu Jungui. Only then did he realize that Chu Jungui had controlled everything on the entire battleship, including the images fed back.
The green positioning laser guided the two patrol ships to approach each other and finally dock.
Chu Jungui said to the communication channel: "Everyone, please pay attention and act according to the issued plan. Those who refuse to implement will immediately activate the self-destruction program of the armor."
After saying that, Chu Jungui picked up his gun, waved to the captain, and said, "Follow me."
At this time, an action plan also appeared in the captain's personal terminal. He glanced at it, smiled bitterly, and followed Chu Jungui to the docking door.
The hatch opened, and the engineering maintenance team of the No. 2 ship walked into the No. 2 ship. The leader of the engineer said: "Take me to the berth. By the way, where is that guy Hood?"
"I'm here!" A strong man stood out from the crowd.
"What's the problem that you can't fix?"
"I can't say for sure. Just go and have a look and you will know."
"Okay! Let's go, boys, it's time to work!" the engineer greeted, leading seven or eight maintenance personnel to the berth. The structures of the two patrol ships are exactly the same. When the engineer of the No. 2 ship arrives here, he feels as if he is at home.
A team of people quickly moved through the passage and headed to the berth. At this time, the docking channel of the two patrol boats suddenly lit up with a red light, indicating the risk of leakage.
A man from ship No. 1 carried a toolbox through the passage and came to the side of ship No. 2. He said, "It seems that the problem is on your side. I want to check the data."
The two guards didn't care and gave way to the passage. The maintenance personnel came to the cabin, opened the data cover, and connected the personal terminal to the data interface.
A guard saw a faint flash of red in front of his eyes. He looked at the maintenance staff in confusion and asked, "Is it so hot?"
The maintenance personnel quickly sprayed out white cooling mist from their helmets. Without looking back, they said, "It's not a big problem, but the location is critical, so I'm a little nervous."
The guard laughed loudly and said, "It looks like he is a rookie. What are you afraid of? Even if the passage is really broken and we are thrown out, we can fly back to the spacecraft by ourselves. Haven't you done any training?"
"I did it, but... the results were not very good."
The guard patted his shoulder sympathetically and said, "Then you're done, rookie. I might have you next time I log in."
The guard did not notice that a strange picture suddenly flashed on the screen of the maintenance personnel's personal terminal, but the picture lasted less than 0.1 seconds and passed by without attracting attention.
Chu Jungui kept tapping his fingers on his personal terminal, but the actual operation was in his mind, with a progress bar gradually moving toward the end.
There was a soft click, and the lights in the entire passage suddenly dimmed a bit. The two guards were startled and immediately alerted. They looked around and relaxed when they saw that there was no enemy. A guard looked at Chu Jungui suspiciously and asked, "You didn't break anything, did you?"
Chu Jungui turned around, showed a bright smile, and said, "Nothing else, except the security system."
The two guards were shocked and immediately pointed their guns at Chu Jungui. However, they found that their guns were locked and could not fire.
Chu Jungui had an extra pistol in his hand. It was not very powerful and could only be regarded as a personal self-defense weapon, but it was enough to penetrate their masks.
