Faced with such a situation, General Mungo's face turned gloomy. He had obviously sensed that something had happened.
A group of people filed in. The first to enter was the Interstellar Military Police wearing a red armband, followed by the Chief Engineer, Captain, Colonel of the Army, Chief Officer, and other high-level personnel on the ship. Then came Major General Fiji, who had a strange smile on his face. Finally, two people entered.
Two Lieutenant Generals.
One of the Lieutenant General was a middle-aged woman with a straight face, as if everyone owed her money. She could also be understood as a dissatisfied old hag.
The other Lieutenant General had a big smile on his face, more like a businessman than a general.
The current situation was quite obvious. Fiji was obviously a cold-blooded and vicious person. The moment he decided to give up, he immediately turned around and betrayed Mungo. Firstly, he could atone for his crime with a meritorious deed, and secondly, he could trample Mungo under his feet in spite of his disappointment!
"When I'm down on my luck, my former boss is even more unlucky than me …" Obviously, this mentality was very comforting for Fiji.
***
The reason why Fiji was judged to be a snitch was because of the current structure of the human Empire.
At present, the Empire could be said to have occupied more than half of the Milky Way galaxy, and its surrounding territories were also scattered. Therefore, under such a terrifyingly large territory, the first thing that the Empire had to face was the awkwardness of the Yuan Dynasty in the old Earth era.
The vast territory conquered by Temujin occupied the two continents of Asia and Europe at that time, so it often took several years for the huge Empire to issue an order.
Such an inefficient way of operating could easily lead to various emergencies that could not be dealt with in time. Therefore, as soon as Temujin died, the Empire was immediately divided into the Golden Horde, the Ilkhanate, the Khanate of Ogedai, and the Khanate of Chagatai. Although the four Khanates all recognized the Yuan Dynasty, which occupied the Central Plains, as the rightful ruler, they actually became independent regimes.
However, the advancement of science and technology had solved this problem. The scientists of the Empire had discovered in their research on telepathy that in some twins or sisters, even if they were extremely far apart, if one of them was sick, the other would ignore the distance and have a corresponding telepathy.
Based on this principle, the scientists solved the problem of long-distance communication.
However, even with the Space Folding technology and the discovery of various wormholes, it would still take a long time to cross the vast sea of stars and the vast Star Field.
From the fact that Major General Fiji had gathered so many people in just a few days, it could be seen that he had been planning this for a long time. Once he failed, he would push all the blame onto Mungo.
Otherwise, to strip Mungo of his position as a major general who carried out special missions, it could be said that there were many things to do and all kinds of complicated procedures. Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible to be so efficient in at least a month.
"Andes Mungo?" The old woman with the sharp voice took out a telegram and said straightforwardly and rigidly, "He's a member of the Black Star Alliance.
"According to the latest report from the Imperial Constitutional Department, you have committed dereliction of duty, the crime of damaging the enormous wealth of the Imperium, the crime of falsifying intelligence, and the crime of provoking an interstellar dispute. As punishment for the multiple crimes, you will be stripped of all your current military titles! They will be supervised by the military police and sent to the military court! "
Mungo didn't say anything. He just sneered and didn't resist, allowing the military police to handcuff him.
Fiji walked up to Mungo. When he saw Mungo's indifferent expression, for some reason, an inexplicable anger suddenly welled up in his heart! But he couldn't do anything in front of everyone. He kicked Mungo's desk, causing the heavy mahogany desk to tilt to one side with a creak.
From a different angle, Fiji could see an ultra-thin display screen on Mungo's desk. When he took a closer look, he found that the screen was still displaying the image transmitted by Cyborg No. 1. He immediately sneered.
"You still won't give up? What a pity, it's time for you to despair. "
Fiji immediately pressed a few buttons on the desk to remove the signal jammer. He then said coldly, "Don't worry.
He then said in a cold voice, "Order No. 1 has been issued! Stop the Kitty Hawk's overload operation immediately and cut off all contact with Uplos! "
Upon hearing this, Mungo's eyes immediately turned red. The veins on his forehead bulged as he roared, "You're the one who killed me!
"You can't do this! If you stop the overload operation now, the Kitty Hawk will be in danger of completely losing power! "
That's right, the reason why Mungo was so fearless was because he had connections with the Big Ben Research Institute. To deal with an Imperial Major General, from suspicion to confirmation, trial to conviction, unless it was during a war and the crime was treason, the unit of time needed to be calculated in years. In other words, the Big Ben Research Institute had more than enough time to bail him out.
But, but!! Mungo was an ambitious fellow, and the information he had so far was only enough to preserve his capital! If he wanted to successfully recoup his losses, he would have to count on a lot of surveillance data.
If Fiji cut off and stopped the Kitty Hawk's overload operation now, the overloaded reactor would probably be scrapped immediately. It would be impossible to restart and enter the overload state again! This would completely destroy Mungo's plan!
When Fiji saw Mungo's anxious look, he finally felt relieved. He laughed wildly.
"You still want to turn the tables at a time like this? What an idiot. Do you think you're still in charge on this ship? Pass down my order, stop the Kitty Hawk's overload operation immediately! "
A response soon came from the other side.
"Energy output is decreasing …."
"Calculating energy consumption …."
"Fuel transmission is interrupted …."
"Cutting off the overload operation at this time is likely to cause the power system to be completely paralyzed. It is recommended that this operation be carried out after returning to Alps Base 7."
Fiji said coldly.
"There are already three towing ships on standby! There's no need to worry about the Kitty Hawk losing power. Execute the order!! "
"Order executed. Please confirm with the highest authority immediately."
The so-called highest authority confirmation required Mungo to cooperate and hand over the highest authority key of the base. Mungo struggled frantically, but he was still found by the military police …. In the end, he was handed over to the old Lieutenant General behind Fiji.
"No!! Don't! "
Mungo roared again.
Fiji walked over and stepped on Mungo's face, which was being held down by the guards. He ground his face as if he was wiping off mud from the soles of his shoes, then said through gritted teeth, "It's my bad luck.
Why did I have to partner with an idiot like you? Everything was messed up by you, idiot. Otherwise, how could things have gotten so bad? "
Mungo watched as the old Lieutenant General fiercely inserted the highest authority key into the slot on the command console and twisted it hard. He closed his eyes in despair and stopped talking. For a guy like Fiji who bit everywhere like a mad dog, Mungo found that there was really no language he could use to communicate with him.
In the mind of this arrogant son of an aristocratic family, as long as there was merit, it must be his. As long as there was a mistake, it must be someone else's fault …. Mungo sighed and closed his eyes in pain. There were only four words in his mind:
All for naught!!!
But at that moment, the 3D holographic projector next to him began to shine. The charging indicator on the floor also began to shine like the landing indicator on the runway.
Although Mungo's nose was bleeding and he looked very miserable with blood smeared all over his face, he was the first to notice this strange phenomenon as his face was pressed against the ground. Therefore, a blazing light of hope suddenly appeared in his eyes!
In an instant, the light flashed, and the indescribable pipes and lines intertwined, quickly forming a vivid 3D illusion of a person. It was at least 1/100,000th of the high definition accuracy. This person looked very young, and he was casually wearing a white coat. One side of the collar of the suit inside was turned inwards, and the other side was turned outwards. His hair seemed to have not been washed for a long time, and it even had a greasy feeling of starching.
The white coat on his body was stained with stains, and there were even a few burn marks left by cigarette butts on it. The most exaggerated part was the hem. A large piece of it had been torn off. The lower half of the man's body was wearing a pair of cartoon shorts, and his black hairy buttocks were faintly visible!
To be honest, this man's non-mainstream image was somewhat similar to that of a homeless man who wandered around the trash can in the middle of the night.
But, but!! The fact that this man could directly use long-distance 3D communication across a distance of N light-years was already very telling.
To use this high-end technology with strategic significance, a Lieutenant General had to report it a week in advance. Even a General could not do whatever he wanted! Just like the old man from before. Although he wished he could keep an eye on it every day, he could only use it once every 48 hours or so.
The sloppy man lit up his lighter with a click and lit a cigarette for himself. He appeared to be somewhat astonished by the scene before him, but that astonishment was immediately replaced by a fanaticism. He then calmly said, "That's right. That's right.
He asked calmly, "Who's Andes Mungo?"
Mungo, who was being pinned down, immediately shouted.
"I am!"
The sloppy man glanced at him and said.
"We've received the information you sent us before. It's very realistic, and you have a certain understanding of our internal information. Therefore, I've been authorized to obtain the technology you used to create these images. This may have a positive effect on our research. "
"Besides, a Major General shouldn't have access to so much inside information about the Ten Strongest Project, so I think you'd better tell us the source of your information. Otherwise, if you delay my afternoon tea, the consequences will be very serious."
