1645. Infiltration (Part 2)
"If you leave like this, you will regret it, Sunil-Mr. Chetri. Because this business may mean profits of millions of credits. With this money, you can even buy a cruiser that has been retired by the military." The mysterious Corellia broker said.
James-Bond turned around and said coldly, "I want to make money, but I want life even more! One hundred and fifty thousand tons of tractor beams at a time, I don't know where else to use them except a fleet. Don't tell me that I was hit by Galactic Republic's military order... Unless you can prove that these goods are really used for engineering, then you should find someone else."
"I guarantee it with my personality!"
"Personality? Haha, goodbye." James-Bond waved his hand, turned and left.
"Show me your stuff!" the broker shouted from behind.
James-Bond turned around and said lightly, "I have the final say on the location."
"My assistant will accompany you throughout the process, and I will keep in touch at all times," the broker said.
"Ah? This..." The Bith assistant was startled when he heard this. He looked at the ferocious Gabriel-Tosh next to him, feeling extremely fearful in his heart.
"What? Do you have any questions?" James-Bond asked first.
"No... no problem..."
James-Bond didn't say much, and took him directly to his spaceship. Nova got into the cockpit, entered an unknown coordinate, and drove the spacecraft to an unmanned galaxy.
Here, a cargo ship driven by a robot is floating alone among Star Ring, a gas giant planet.
Nova drove the spacecraft to dock with the cargo ship. The group boarded the cargo ship and opened a secret compartment, only to see a tractor beam generator more than ten meters long placed there. This tractor beam generator looks very rough, with a large number of exposed wires, and the welding in some places is even rough. It looks like shoddy goods at first glance.
Seeing this, James-Bond finally felt relieved. Fourth Civilization's Military Intelligence Department did their job with meticulous attention to detail. They really made this tractor beam emitter the same as those made by those handmade black workshops. It seems that they have been planning this plan for some time, maybe it started when they judged that Galactic Republic would launch a large-scale attack.
"That's it?" Looking at the pile of junk, Bith was a little dissatisfied.
"What's wrong? It seems that you still like Kuat Drive Yards's products. The tractor beams they produce are smooth and beautiful." James-Bond said coldly, "This is our hand-made product. Although it doesn't look that good, the actual effect is not much different from what Kuat and others produce."
When he was speaking, Gabriel-Tosh took a step forward, and his burly body stood like a mountain of flesh in front of the short Bith.
"Then let's try... try..." Bith said quickly.
James-Bond immediately ordered several agents dressed as workers to bring several robots over, connect the tractor beam generator to a separate energy device on the cargo ship, and prepare for launch.
"Put the shell on for our guest! Let him see our craftsmanship!" James-Bond waved his hand, acting like a big brother. He looked completely different from the shrewd businessman he looked like during the negotiation just now.
However, it was precisely because of this contrast that the Bith who came with him was even more convinced.
Immediately, several more robots came over and began to move the pile of steel plate shells stacked next to them for welding.
"I want it in Kuat Drive Yards style!" James roared again.
The robots quickly replaced several other shell steel plates and moved them over to start installation.
[We have deployed hyperspace signal receivers in this galaxy. As long as hyperspace communications can be sent out, it is possible for us to track the target of the communication. ]Nova's voice said in James-Bond's mind, [Also, I have to remind you, this person is Bith. Bith's brain is very developed. I have tried it before. It is almost impossible to control his mind unless you kill him.]
[Then let the first test fail.]James-Bond said in his mind.
[Are you sure?]Nova was a little surprised.
[Listen to me.]James-Bond finished speaking in his mind, and immediately waved his hand to urge the workers, "Hurry up! We don't have so much time to waste!"
The installation was quickly completed. James pulled Bith to the porthole, pointed at the countless ice asteroids on Star Ring outside and said, "The reason why I put these tractor beams here is to facilitate testing! And it is also hidden enough here!"
He shouted to the back, "Start testing!!"
"Boss, we have chosen an asteroid. According to the scan, it has 477,000 tons."
"Mark it and start testing!" James picked up the personal terminal, then looked at the asteroid marked on it, then looked outside the porthole, pointed in one direction and said, "That one! Watch it!"
Buzz~~~~~~! The tractor beam generator suddenly vibrated and roared, and then a faint green magnetic field beam was launched, shining directly on the asteroid.
With the control of the controller, the 470,000-ton asteroid began to shake as expected. It was captured by the magnetic field generated by the tractor beam and began to slowly move closer to the spacecraft.
However, at this moment, the controller suddenly screamed and saw the asteroid suddenly shattering and countless ice shards flying out. Obviously, the fetch failed!
"Is this your quality? Do you want to rely on this to sell it to us?" Bith mocked.
[Infuriated him.]James-Bond said something in his mind, and then immediately said loudly, "No!! This is an accident!! Something must have fallen in when welding the shell just now!!"
"You! Stupid robot! Stop it!!" He turned to the robot that was welding the shell and roared loudly.
At this time, Bith suddenly felt an unknown fire surge in his heart. He jumped up and yelled at James-Bond, "You are a liar!! You tricked me into seeing a pile of scrap metal in this ungrateful place!!"
James-Bond also looked extremely irritable. He jumped on his feet and yelled at Bith. In fact, he didn't want to get money and wanted to have sex for nothing.
The two men quarreled fiercely.
Nova adjusted his glasses at this time, sighed and said to Bith's assistant, "Notify your boss, don't let them make a noise."
"Uh... I don't have the big boss's communication method..." The assistant was a little confused in the face of the argument and said blankly.
"Anyway, you have to think of a way. It's up to your big boss to decide whether this business can be done or not." Nova looked very sincere.
Bith's assistant nodded and stepped forward to break up the fight. Nova also went up and pulled James-Bond away.
After Bith was pulled away by his assistant, he suddenly felt a clarity in his mind. He was a little confused, and suddenly felt that his anger just now was a bit inexplicable.
If the first test fails, try it a few more times. Why are you angry? Now that he is fine, looking at James-Bond who is still angry, he feels that the atmosphere here seems to be a bit awkward.
Nova smiled slightly, looked at Gabriel-Tosh provocatively, and said in his mind: [How about it, besides blowing off this Bith's head, can you be like me?]
Tosh snorted heavily.
Bith was shocked. He thought that the big black guy Tosh was coming for him, and a cold sweat broke out on his back.
At this time, his assistant leaned down and whispered a few words to him. Bith sighed, took out his communicator and started to contact the boss behind the scenes.
It's just that this place is too remote, so he changed several frequency bands before sending the message.
[Aha! Tracked! Kiefer system's hyperspace base station! Next, as long as the other side is connected, we can further lock the other party's position!]Nova said in surprise.
Soon, communication was connected. The mysterious Corellia broker appeared in the holographic projection, "Why are you so anxious to contact me?"
"The test... the test failed... I feel..." Bith was a little unreasonable. He glanced at Tosh timidly and said, "I think we need further tests."
"A test is a test! This is what I asked you to do! Come to me if you fail once? Then what use do I have to you?!" The broker was completely impatient, his tone full of anger.
"Anyway, you've been contacted, so let's start the next test. Don't let this idiot ruin our deal!" James-Bond appeared to be trying to persuade, but in fact they were trying to reverse the situation and pointed the finger at Bith.
The broker looked at Bith coldly, did not speak, but did not close the communication, obviously agreeing.
Next, they conducted a series of tests. This time, the tractor beam generator performed flawlessly. Dragging horizontally, dragging vertically, dragging in circles, all postures are no problem at all, and it is very stable.
[Produced by Tyran Heavy Industries, it's really good. Rory-Swann That old man does have something.]Nova said, [We also left a little flaw with this generator. Its energy consumption will be relatively high, which will also cause heat dissipation problems and make the device temperature too high.]
Sure enough, Bith, who had been staring at the data, whispered, "The energy consumption is 4.15% more than the standard, and the device temperature is also a bit high... Is it okay?"
"You use the standard of Kuat Drive Yards to cover my things? Then why don't you buy it at the price of Kuat? I can solve the problem of heat dissipation, bring the money!!" James-Bond pushed Bith to the wall and said angrily.
[Target locked. Corellian system, Planet Tralus... This guy is hiding here.]Gabriel-Tosh said, [I have informed Crimson Dawn. Within an hour, the kidnapping was completed.]
[Monitor that person first, don't kidnap him. I have a plan.]James-Bond said.
[Don't add unnecessary complications.]Nova was a little unhappy.
[Kidnapping him will alert the enemy, and we cannot confirm that this person can really take us to the galaxy where Republic Expeditionary Fleet set out. We only get one chance and we need to be cautious.]James-Bond said in his mind.
[Catch him directly in front of me, and I will dig out everything in his brain!]Nova said.
[But there is still a good chance that his head will be turned into paste, right?]James-Bond asked rhetorically.
Then he ignored Nova, threw Bith aside with a wave of his hand, and said, "The transaction is over! Get out of here!"
"I originally thought that we would have a happy cooperation." The broker had not yet realized that Crimson Dawn, the largest gangster in Corellia, had quietly launched a dragnet. He was still drinking wine and talking about business in his secret base. "Isn't the test just now very successful? Except for the appearance of your things, everything else is perfect. As for the appearance, just polish the outer shell."
The original plan was to find his location and then send agents there to carry out the kidnapping. It turned out that this person was at Corellian system, which would save trouble.
In the territory of Corellia, whether it is Crimson Dawn of Dryden-Vos or White Worm Gang of Madam Proxima, they are all experts in this kind of kidnapping activities, and they have already formed a close alliance with Tang Xiao.
Let them do it quickly and easily.
It can only be said that this unlucky dark broker is really destined to suffer such a disaster.
"You are just a bunch of vulgar, unreasonable and unprofessional pirates!" James-Bond said, "A middleman who is truly capable of finding connections for such a huge project cannot be like you who know nothing! The deal is over, get out!"
"I think we can really have a good talk and the price can be easily negotiated." Seeing the good performance of these tractor beams, the broker was very tempted. "If you really need cash, I have 1.5 million credit ingots here. If you don't trust Galactic Republic credit notes for other parts of the payment, I can also provide goods of equivalent value."
James-Bond looked a little tempted. He stopped and turned around and said, "Two million credit ingots! For the rest, I can accept second-hand military spacecraft parts to offset the bill! Also, I want to see this 'big project' you mentioned with my own eyes! I will not deliver the goods before confirmation!"
"You are making things difficult for me, Mr. Chetri."
"You know what I'm worried about! You don't have to be afraid. I'll go alone. If you're worried about leaking secrets, you can detain me temporarily. In short, I have to confirm what you do!"
The broker hesitated for a moment and said, "I can provide some videos and photos of the scene..."
"Don't send it to me! I won't receive it or read it! Stop playing tricks with me! As long as I take a look at it, you will be deemed to have informed me, right?" James-Bond directly refused to receive the file.
The broker was silent for a long time, and then said, "Are you alone? And you can't bring anything with you. Everything is up to my arrangement. And I also need to take a big risk. I can only give you one million credit ingots at most this time."
James made a gesture of wanting to bargain, "I said I want..."
"This is my final bottom line, Mr. Chetri." The broker interrupted him directly.
"Then... it's a deal."
