"You have enough backbone. Strip him naked, throw him outside, and let him experience the terrifying gravity and corrosive viruses of Ceres."

"Yes, Lord Monlik."

The Fallen God Church members present immediately dragged the man out.

Soon, a holographic image unfolded before everyone. All the captives could clearly see the officer being dragged out of the Blackthorn Base.

Having lost the protection of the life support system, his bones were instantly crushed by the pressure, and his blood splattered. At the same time, his shattered body, under the invasion of terrifying negative energy pollution, began to mutate, proliferating wildly like cancer cells.

"Ah!"

Desperate screams rang out.

All the captives and wounded personnel, upon seeing this scene, revealed expressions of fear in their eyes.

"See that? Now, I'm giving you one more chance. Tell us immediately, where did the main force go?"

Monlik asked with a ferocious expression.

Unfortunately, it was still useless. None of the captives present said a word. Many soldiers even stepped forward, protecting the wounded and medical personnel behind them who could not move.

Although they were covered in wounds, they remained steadfast, regarding death as homecoming.

At this time, the Fallen God Church members beside them were also intimidated by their momentum. They respectfully said to Monlik, "Lord, this kind of torture doesn't seem to be effective at all. These people's mouths are unusually tight. We've tortured hundreds of them to death, and they still won't open their mouths. How about we find someone from the Eternal Slumber Clan to help? Can't they read memories?"

Before they could finish speaking, Monlik slapped his subordinate directly, revealing a fierce look and roaring.

"Are you brain-dead? Ask them for help, doesn't that equal telling them the location of the ruins? When that time comes, will there be anything left for us? You're stupid beyond words."

"Lord Monlik, you are right, I am foolish."

"You're really stupid to the extreme. Pry open their mouths at all costs. I don't care what methods you use, even if you torture them all to death, so be it. But if you can't pry them open, don't even think about living!"

Monlik roared somewhat crazily.

"Yes!"

The Fallen God Church members present trembled.

...

----------------------------------------------------------------

Several days later, Black and White Boundary Fortress.

Su Mo was dining with Qian Chengxue, Sun Duoxiang, and others.

They had reserved a small restaurant.

Sun Duoxiang said while eating, "Boss, calculating the time, we should arrive at Ceres in about seven or eight days."

"Yes, almost. When we get to Ceres, try to stay in the base as much as possible, don't go anywhere."

Su Mo said after thinking for a while.

"Boss, don't worry, even if I had ten thousand guts, I wouldn't dare to wander around."

Sun Duoxiang quickly shook his head and replied, thinking of the horrors of Ceres.

Su Mo smiled at Sun Duoxiang's reaction. This kid was quite smart in this regard.

Just then, a piercing alarm sounded.

"Emergency announcement, due to an emergency situation at the Black and White Boundary Fortress, all entrances and exits in each district are now closed, and all security personnel are on high alert. All passengers are requested to return to their rooms immediately, and are strictly prohibited from wandering outside. Anyone who violates this rule will be regarded as a rebel!"

"Repeat, emergency announcement..."

Hearing this sudden announcement, Qian Chengxue and the others looked puzzled.

Su Mo's expression changed slightly, and he took the lead in putting down his cutlery, then said, "Everyone, return to your rooms immediately!"

"Boss, what happened?"

Sun Duoxiang asked in confusion.

"I don't know, but I know something big must have happened. Let's do this. Sun Duoxiang, Zhang Hao, Ma Ke, Sun Li, Qian Chengxue, let's all go back to one room, so we can take care of each other at the first sign of trouble."

Su Mo's expression changed for a moment, and then he made adjustments.

"Okay."

Qian Chengxue said in agreement.

...

At this time, in Zone B1, Commander Nan Qi was running towards a room very quickly.

At the end of the corridor, fully armed officers were guarding a room door.

"Commander Nan Qi!"

The officers shouted in horror as they saw Commander Nan Qi rushing over.

"Get out of the way!"

Commander Nan Qi had no intention of talking to them. He rushed into the room.

The luxurious room was filled with broken objects everywhere.

Two corpses lay on the ground.

One of them was Rogerd. He was completely naked, his entire head had been chopped off, and his face still retained an expression of disbelief.

Blood stained the entire floor red.

The other corpse was that of the Lanqi woman. Her head was twisted ninety degrees, and her face was full of incredulity.

Her neck should have been twisted off.

Commander Nan Qi felt dizzy and almost lost his balance as he looked at the dead Rogerd.

"Commander Nan Qi."

The subordinates behind him quickly helped Nan Qi.

Nan Qi roared almost furiously, "Who did this!"

The officers present looked at each other, not daring to say a word.

Nan Qi took a deep breath and turned to look at his subordinates, "Who did it?"

"We don't know either."

"Commander Nan Qi, we really don't know. We've already checked the surveillance, and everything is normal."

...

The officers present explained one after another.

"Then how did you find out?"

Commander Nan Qi asked through gritted teeth.

"It's like this, Lord Rogerd hasn't left his room for a day and a night. The person delivering the food didn't dare to disturb him, so they reported it. Then we felt something was wrong and came to knock on the door, but there was no response. Later, we really had no choice but to bite the bullet and open the door, and then we saw this scene."

The subordinates present said tremblingly.

Nan Qi's expression changed constantly, and he gradually calmed down.

At this time, Bai Li also rushed over. She couldn't help but tremble as she saw the scene before her.

"Lord Nan Qi, who did this?"

"It's not clear now, but it was definitely done by a top expert. Lord Rogerd is no pushover. It wouldn't be easy to sneak attack him, and the murderer is definitely still on the ship."

Nan Qi became more and more calm, and his eyes became more and more cold.

"Then what should we do now?"

Bai Li asked, swallowing.

"What else can we do? Find the murderer. Anyone with half a brain knows this is a premeditated murder!"

Nan Qi had a feeling that a storm was coming. Now they were getting closer and closer to Ceres, and they could be attacked at any time.

Originally, he could still rely on that Rogerd, but he was killed first.

But now was not the time to worry about this. He had to find the murderer quickly, otherwise that guy would be a time bomb.

"How do we find him?"

Bai Li looked at a loss.

"Order forensic doctors and investigators to come and survey the murder scene, and have the Vadoan mechanics check the surveillance and wiring nearby to see if they can find any clues. Also, pull up the entire Zone B image and investigate all suspicious personnel. In addition, send out review teams to question all the experts who boarded the ship. Anyone who pilots a pseudo V-generation mecha should be put on the list of suspects."

Nan Qi issued orders with great clarity.

"Understood, I'll arrange for people to go."

Bai Li quickly responded.

After issuing the orders, Nan Qi walked back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back.

He always felt that simply investigating like this might not be useful, but besides that, he really had no clue for the time being.

Mainly, Nan Qi couldn't understand at all how Rogerd was ambushed in a closed room.

You know, that guy was also very vigilant.
