Chapter 506 Master Control Room
A minute later, he called Xu Zheng back in the rapidly ascending elevator.
"You don't need to search. I know where he is. You can take a few more people with you."
"Where?"
Xu Zheng asked a little surprised and numbly.
"In the main control engine room on the eighteenth deck."
Of course Meng Fei couldn't sense where Galen was hiding, but Fan Bu could.
When Meng Fei's application is approved, he will have the ability to search for Galen's consciousness within three hundred meters.
But the strange thing is that although Fan Bu located Galen's location, he was unable to read his mind.
His brain seemed to be connected with some powerful computing power, constantly confusing his consciousness, making it impossible for Fan Bu to interpret.
The main control room is not in the driving room of the cruise ship, but on the 18th floor, just behind Gade's mansion. This layout is quite strange.
Most people definitely don't want their house to be close to a computer room, and they may be worried about the rumbling noise, and they may also be worried about radiation.
But Boss Gai is rich, so it’s not easy to install more sets of sound insulation? As for radiation, just install lead plates, which can even block nuclear radiation.
The Polaris cruise ship is a high-end ship that uses fuel to generate electricity and is fully electric-propelled.
The captain and crew in the bridge actually don't have much work to do, that is, set the destination, departure time, and monitor the sea conditions.
Even when the captain drives it manually, he controls the speed, direction, etc.
From the power start to the lighting switch, it is still automatically controlled by programs. These programs run on the server in the main control computer room.
Normally, these servers can be controlled remotely without entering the computer room.
Unless it is for hardware maintenance, the engine room is not open at all and is locked. No one can enter except the ship owner Gade.
When Meng Fei, Zhu Que, Xiao Han, An Sheng, and Fan Bu arrived, Xu Zheng and many people were already guarding the door of the computer room.
Although Ged's penthouse is extremely luxurious, the computer room at the back is surprisingly simple, just behind a thick gray wall.
There were no windows in the wall, just a heavy steel door with a hand wheel.
"It's locked inside. This is armored steel."
Xu Zheng gently knocked on the iron door with the barrel of the gun in his hand.
But as soon as he finished speaking, the entire iron door became red, hot, and bright, melting and flowing like paraffin roasted by fire!
The agents around looked at Meng Fei and his party with fear.
They couldn't tell at all who had cast the supernatural power. They only knew that this ability was even better than the hacksaw controlled by Xiao Han's invisible hand.
The molten iron splashed and flowed on the ground, and after a few seconds, it solidified on the ground to form an iron plate.
"You guys wait here, Firebird and I will go solve this matter. Lao Li, you can come too."
Meng Fei took a step forward and walked into the dark door. Suzaku followed him unhurriedly with steps as graceful as a lady in ancient costume.
The last one is Li Mu wrapped in a blanket.
The room feels unexpectedly large, like his 004 library. However, the rows of vertical bookcases are not bookcases, but black racks.
The rack is densely packed with blade machines inserted in layers like books.
The signal lights on the side of the blade machine kept flashing, and countless network cables were pulled out, like a mess.
At first glance, Meng Fei felt that this did not look like a server needed by a cruise ship. Rather, it looked like a secretly mining Dogecoin workshop.
The servers on high-end cruise ships usually don’t need to be moved much, they just need to be locked in a sealed cabinet. The wiring must be clean and tidy.
Only the cryptocurrency mining industry that requires huge computing power, or the gray industry that conducts large-scale hacking activities, will need so many machines.
If someone told him that this was the assembly and debugging site for a small experimental model of a national supercomputer or space computer, he would believe it. The cost of these machines is not necessarily lower than the cost of the entire ship.
That's why the ship safety control system running here is so powerful that even Meng Fei has difficulty cracking it.
There was no light in the room, but it was filled with the colorful, dim light emitted by the blade machine, which reminded Meng Fei of some mysterious cave attractions.
The corridor vacated between the racks is in an S shape. Follow this path to the end and there is a desk. Galen is sitting on the office chair behind the desk.
"Don't come here!"
He had already heard the noise outside, and Galen looked nervous. But he couldn't move.
One end of a thick cable was connected to the large router on the rack, and the other end was plugged directly into the center of his forehead.
His forehead and nose were burned when he tried to harass Suzaku in the swimming pool, and they were still bandaged.
But now these bandages have been torn off by him, revealing the skin that was originally blood red and now appears black under various colored lights.
The plug of the cable was inserted directly into his forehead. It was unknown how deep it was inserted, and there seemed to be blood stains on the edge. Meng Fei felt pain just looking at it.
But Galen's expression was more of nervousness than pain. His eyes were staring forward, and the whites of his eyes looked particularly large.
"Don't come over here!
"I have solidified the self-destruct program in all the equipment on the cruise ship. If you make a move here, everyone on the ship will die!
"If you don't believe me, you can try it. There are still fifty tons of diesel in the fuel tank. Is it going to be a big fire when lit?
"Put down the life raft and escape? It's impossible. They're all locked up by me. You can either jump into the sea and swim back, or wait to die on the boat.
Then he grinned again and said with a sickly smile:
"As long as you wait obediently for me to finish the matter and the ship sails to Chiwu, everyone can go back alive."
"Are you a ship robber?"
Meng Fei stopped and asked.
"No."
Galen, whose mouth was constantly twitching, made a nervous but sick voice.
"I just don't want you to do bad things. Just don't come over.
"Even if you come and hack me to death, you can't cancel the self-destruct program without me.
"So don't do stupid things. If you have something to say, please talk to me!"
Galen was trembling as he spoke, and the muscles on his face twitched and twisted from time to time, as if he was ready for a fatal outcome at any time.
Meng Fei even wondered if this was another lunatic who had been influenced by Taotie?
If you just go over and hold him down, or let Suzaku slap him into dust, it's hard to tell what will happen.
He took control of the master control server, and he also modified Gade's secret elevator. Maybe he had planned it for a long time, and the ship had already been modified.
Although the ship had been searched before porting and no weapons or explosives were hidden, the machinery and equipment were not within the scope of the inspection.
Create an oil leak, design a jumper that short-circuits and causes fire, or overload the internal combustion engine and stop dissipating heat, and we might all die together!
