431 Revenge from the Past (Part 1)
"What do you want to do?!"
The bartender was a support staff member of the flight crew. He couldn't break free and looked panicked.
Melos was startled, "Captain, what are you doing?"
Han Xiao pointed to his glass of wine and said, "Someone put something in it, it should be poison."
"Impossible. I brought the wine. How could I be fine after drinking it...Am I also poisoned?"
Melos was shocked and hurriedly touched his tongue and throat, but there was no numbness from poisoning.
"The wine is fine, it's a problem with the wine glass." The description of the wine bottle's contents was normal. Only my glass of wine had added ingredients. It could only be that someone had put something in the wine glass in advance. The bartender who took out the wine glass was the most suspicious.
It was originally a simple daily escort mission. Han Xiao did not expect to encounter such a thing. He was very curious, who wanted his life?
At this time, all the players and business workers present gathered around, and Dyke and others also came over after hearing the news, looking puzzled.
"What happened?"
Han Xiao said briefly, and everyone looked surprised.
"Could it be a mistake?" Decker asked.
Shaking his head, Han Xiao compiled a new task and threw it to the players present.
[You trigger the task [Test Toxin]]
[Task introduction: Your captain is suspected of being poisoned and assassinated. Are you willing to help him test the effect of the poison]
[Task requirement: Drink [spiritual liquor with added ingredients]]
[Reward: Black Star-Han Xiao favorability +300, 15w experience]
[Note: Death is possible]
The players in the mercenary group received the panel prompts one after another, and their eyes lit up. It was the first time they encountered a task that was so easy to improve Han Xiao's favor and earn experience. It would be a waste to die once.
Everyone was about to rush forward to grab the wine glass, but when they saw a figure flashing, the meat bag moved like a rabbit, very fast, they grabbed the wine glass, and drank without saying a word.
"Why are you running so fast?!" Tai Erzi was shocked. Even an agile martial artist like me can't keep up with your Sibi De. How did you practice?
Roubao glanced at everyone triumphantly. Before he could speak, his face suddenly changed. The blood vessels under his skin bulged and turned blue-black, covering his entire face. He opened his mouth wide but could not make a sound. The other players saw this.
, all backed away, and there was no one within three meters of Roubao.
The meat bag froze in place for a few seconds, then blood spurted out from all his facial features, and he fell to the ground and died suddenly. He died on the spot.
"What a man like the wind. He died so suddenly." Kuang Dao clicked his tongue in surprise.
"Just, die like that?!"
The workers and crew members of the business group were collectively shocked. A living mercenary died in front of them. His companions were still as if nothing had happened. What kind of mercenary group was this? It was so cold-blooded! It was so scary!
Moreover, this group of mercenaries are too loyal to Black Star. Before Black Star can say anything, they are rushing to drink the poisonous wine and test the poison on themselves. This is not like mercenaries at all, it is simply a fanatical cult!
However, the next moment, Roubao's body turned into white light and disappeared, and then there was a trotting sound outside the door, and Roubao ran over from the resurrection point.
Deke said in surprise: "You, you..."
Han Xiao glanced at him and said, "We have cooperated many times, but you don't know that we have a nickname called 'Immortal Mercenary Group'?"
"I see. I don't know about the rumors in the mercenary world." Dyke smiled bitterly. No wonder these mercenaries were so calm. They turned out to be undead.
Black Star's name is widely circulated, but its specific capabilities are mainly known in the industry, and other industries are not well aware of it.
"What is the effect of poison?" Han Xiao turned around and asked.
Roubao looks at the panel prompts just now.
[You have taken some kind of toxin and are in the process of determining your endurance... Your endurance is lower than 280, there are no relevant immunity skills, and you enter the [poisoned] state.]
[High-concentration rotten blood toxin: This is a toxin produced by some kind of superpower. It requires the injection of blood poison antidote. The current toxicity is 135/135, and 750 blood points are lost per second, lasting 8 seconds.]
[Warning! Your health is too low, please take the antidote as soon as possible!]
[Your health is below 0 points!]
[you are dead!]
Roubao told the truth, and Han Xiao nodded.
"Losing 6,000 blood in 8 seconds is very fatal to players, but drinking it can't kill me, which proves that the person who poisoned me has limited understanding of me. However, the murderer was able to plot me during this journey, which means that he has mastered my whereabouts. At least he knows this
The ship is transporting supplies to Dragon Calm, and I will definitely appear here. This ship is so big, the murderer must be hiding among these people, and the name of the 'Undead Mercenary Group' did not scare away the murderer, there are only two
Maybe, either he knows that I’m not immortal, or it’s… a vendetta?”
Han Xiao frowned, many speculations emerged in his mind, and even the suspicion of the player could not be ruled out!
This possibility has to be guarded against. He strengthens himself by helping the player, but he never fully trusts the player. After all, he is too aware of the player's urine. He only hopes that he guessed wrong and that it was not the player who secretly accepted the plan to assassinate him.
Task.
After verifying that what Han Xiao said was true, a pair of hostile eyes stared at the bartender who fell to the side. When the bartender saw the toxin attack, his face turned pale and his whole body trembled with fear.
"It's not me, I don't know about this, I just took an empty wine glass from the cabinet..."
Han Xiao opened the bar cabinet. There were many empty wine glasses inside. He took them out and filled them with water. Everything was normal. Only his own glass was poisonous. He frowned and said, "Of all the wine glasses, only the one you gave me was poisonous. How could you?"
explain?"
"I, I don't know, that cup is just outside, I really just took it casually!"
The bartender was so scared that he almost peed.
Melos suddenly broke into a cold sweat and was still frightened, "If the bartender brings the wrong cup, wouldn't I be doomed?!"
"You are in great health, I can't poison you to death."
Han Xiao replied casually, staring at the shivering bartender, and said: "If it wasn't you, then someone else had tampered with the wine glass, Captain! Is the Captain here?"
The captain of the spaceship rushed over and stood out from the crowd, with a sad expression on his face, "I am the captain of the Cailuo. I am deeply sorry that this happened on my ship. I will fully cooperate with you to find the murderer."
"I want to call up the surveillance video of the spacecraft in the past few days to see who has been near this place."
"As you wish."
In addition to the bedrooms, most areas of the spacecraft are monitored, and the food room is no exception. The murderer can be identified immediately through the video.
The bartender was surprised, "Then I'm okay?"
"Are you dreaming?" Han Xiao said angrily: "Tie him up and take him with me."
The captain led everyone to the main control room, and when he was about to call up the surveillance, he was shocked to find that the video had been cleared, and the earliest video was less than a day old.
"All the surveillance videos have been deleted!" The captain was shocked. "Only I can perform this level of operations. Could it be that the spacecraft system has been invaded and the other party can bypass the alarm mechanism?!"
He hurriedly opened the backend, used his fingerprint mask to enter the captain's authority, and started the system self-check, but no intrusion vulnerability was found.
"Why can't the invasion be detected? Could it be that the spacecraft is completely controlled by the enemy?"
The captain was sweating profusely and had no choice but to check the spacecraft operation log, hoping to find the source of the operation ID for deleting the video. This small travel spacecraft belonged to an interstellar travel group. The captain was employed, with the second highest authority and the highest system authority.
Because it belongs to the group, the captain cannot change the log, so even if the murderer takes control of the spacecraft, he cannot modify the log, unless the opponent's technology is strong enough to bypass the quantum network defense of the group headquarters and seize the highest authority.
However, there were no traces of logins from other authorized accounts in the logs, and everyone quickly discovered the operation record of deleting the video.
[Operation Log #00784315]
[Clear all surveillance videos 22 hours ago, authority authentication passed, confirm/return → confirm → deleting... Cleaning completed]
[Operator: Captain Account]
