At this moment, Peggy thought that the Dark-star mothership had specially come to accept him. For him, Dark-star actually made such a big scene. He felt the importance of Dark-star and was moved to tears. He could not wait to shed his blood the next moment.
Two small capture ships detached from the Dark-star mothership and surrounded Peggy's spaceship, facing each other from a distance, shooting cone-shaped gravitational capture rays at each other, forming a net, grabbing Peggy's spaceship and bringing it to the mothership. Peggy turned off the system warning and cooperated obediently.
The spaceship inserted into the connection channel, and the mothership's captain waited at the entrance of the channel with his troops. Just as he was about to use his ability to tear open the door of the spaceship, Peggy opened the door and walked out himself. Looking at the uniform Dark-star Godora, he was excited.
Finally found the organization!
Peggy's tone was excited. "I've been waiting for you for a long time."
The Dark-star warriors originally had a cold face, but now, they could not help but look at each other with a blank face.
This was the first time they had seen the target not only not resist but also take the initiative to cooperate as if he was home. This person was not afraid of death!
"Courageous!"
The captain nodded approvingly, then waved his hand and shouted, "Capture him!"
The Dark-star warriors swarmed up, and Peggy was pressed to the ground and disarmed. Thinking that this was the welcoming ceremony of Dark-star, he said loudly and confidently, "Don't worry, don't doubt my loyalty, I will definitely not resist!"
The subordinate said with a sad face, "Boss, I think they're serious."
Peggy glared at him angrily. "Shut up! What do you know, this is a way to test loyalty! "
Hearing this, the Dark-star warrior holding Peggy could not help but sigh. "If only everyone could cooperate like you, how much trouble would that save?"
The scavengers were taken to the prison and tied to the black metal execution posts. The captain paced and said coldly, "I need you to answer my question honestly. Among the Silvers you captured, one of them carried something we need, a black bead. Where did that bead go?"
Although Ashes had obtained the "answer," Dark-star was never one to listen to one side of the story. It was not the principle of a terrorist organization to give up easily.
After Ashes reported to the headquarters, this Dark-star mothership on standby in the Fawn Star System immediately jumped over and intercepted Peggy. Their first target was Peggy's spaceship route recorder. They would start searching from the route where the Silvers were dropped to save time. The second was to interrogate Peggy. Dark-star believed that torture could get more information than normal questioning. He believed that pain could make people honest.
Peggy was stunned.
"Didn't you ask me?"
"Indeed, I want you to say it again. You …"
The captain subconsciously replied. But then, he suddenly paused, and his expression changed dramatically.
Wait a minute!
He thought that Peggy was referring to Ashes, but on second thought, Ashes was using the identity of a mercenary. How could Peggy recognize that Ashes was a member of Dark-star?
Ashes, who was listening at the side, widened his eyes in disbelief. "How could it be exposed? I didn't reveal any flaws! "
"How did you know that the person who asked was a member of Dark-star?" The captain grabbed Peggy's neck and slowly increased his strength. Peggy's face turned purple, and he could barely breathe.
"The … the person who asked, claimed to be … a Dark-star emissary, cough cough cough …"
Ashes frowned. "Captain Sarota, let go. He's about to be strangled to death. Let him tell the whole story."
Captain Sarota stepped back, and Peggy coughed loudly as if he was going to cough out his lungs. He finally realized that something was wrong. With a hoarse voice, he repeated with fear.
"The mysterious hooded man who claimed to be a Dark-star emissary was the first to find me. His goal was also the black bead. I told him the whereabouts. I've always admired you guys, and he promised to let me join Dark-star. Then, he said that later, another force would also come to ask about the bead. He asked me to deceive the next group of people. Not long after, a man who claimed to be a mercenary came. I sent him away according to the Dark-star emissary's explanation …"
A man who claimed to be a mercenary? Isn't that me!
Ashes came back to his senses, and his face became as ugly as excrement. His tone suddenly turned cold. "So you lied to me!"
Peggy's expression changed drastically. "What! You're the guy who claimed to be a mercenary? You guys are Dark-star, and that Dark-star emissary is a fake?! "
Sarota and Ashes's expressions became serious.
The situation suddenly became complicated. It turned out that another mysterious force was also eyeing the Secret Message Bead, and they even dared to use the name of Dark-star to cheat others. They were really tired of living! This was a provocation to Dark-star! Once they were found out, they would definitely make this force suffer a fate worse than death!
Then, the question was … What was the mysterious force's background? Why did they know the truth about the Secret Message Bead? Was their real goal the product in the bead, or was it to destroy Dark-star's plan? Were they here for the money, or were they Dark-star's enemies?
Ashes was confident that he didn't give himself away, so he was puzzled. Which part of the plan had gone wrong?
He thought he was the hunter, but the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. There was also a pair of eyes staring at them from the shadows, hiding deeper than Dark-star. It made his hair stand on end.
More mysteries appeared, and things became more difficult.
The first thing that came to mind was the traitor of the organization. If he wasn't a member of the organization, how did he know so much secret information?
"Then, where is the real whereabouts of the bead?"
"I-I'm not sure, but I didn't throw it into outer space but carried it with me. I lost it during the battle on Floating Dragon Island …"
Ashes's expression was cold. That mysterious force wanted to mislead Dark-star. If they hadn't wanted to kill them, they would have been fooled!
Thinking about the actions of that mysterious force, their methods were strict and bold. They knew that they were competing with Dark-star, but they still dared to impersonate Dark-star. They guessed their intention to keep it a secret, grasped the psychology of each party, and finally misled Peggy and Dark-star. They almost succeeded. This careful thinking made Ashes wary.
Just a little bit more!
"Since it wasn't thrown into outer space, it's easy. Go and investigate all the forces involved in the chaotic battle. No matter what method you use, pry open their mouths. One of them must have picked up the Secret Message Bead. It's impossible that there weren't any eyewitness reports."
Sarota ordered.
"Some of the wanted criminals have already left Floating Dragon Island and need to be intercepted by the mothership. Leave those who are still on Floating Dragon Island to me."
Ashes suppressed the anger of being played, and his tone was cold.
"While looking for the whereabouts of the Secret Message Bead, ask about that mysterious force," Sarota added.
"I know." Ashes frowned. Although he agreed, he really had no clue about the mysterious force.
"Then, what about me?"
Peggy was no longer as confident as before. He was a little flustered, but he felt that he should have done something for Dark-star by telling them the information and finding the hidden enemy.
Sarota glanced at him and waved his hand. The surrounding Dark-star warriors raised their light rifles and aimed at the execution pillar. All the scavengers were shocked. They struggled and hurriedly begged for mercy.
"Don't kill me, this is just a misunderstanding. I didn't mean to lie to you! Dark-star is my idol. My wish has always been to fight for the cause of the hybrids. Please let me join you, "Peggy explained loudly while trembling.
"You really want to contribute to Dark-star?" Sarota's eyes flashed.
"Yes, Dark-star is my belief! I'm willing to do anything for you. "Peggy hurriedly revealed his true feelings and expressed his loyalty.
"Very good. To us, you're more useful dead than alive. Dark-star thanks you for your contribution," Sarota said with a cold smile.
Silencing people was the biggest purpose of Dark-star's trip. The fewer outsiders who knew about the whereabouts of the Secret Message Bead, the better.
Hum!
The light rifles shot out lasers, and the scavengers were hit with melted wounds one by one. Their screams reached the peak first, then they quickly weakened and lost their breath.
The lasers were magnified in front of their eyes, and their vision became white. Peggy opened his eyes wide and screamed.
"No!"
Wounds covered his whole body. Peggy's head tilted, and his eyes were wide open. He died with a grievance.
