"Okay, let's go see our guests now."
After confirming that the Lightning had left the battlefield and had shaken off the enemies, Fangzheng nodded.
"Ling, check the status of the warship. Yaltina, you and I will go to the third tarmac."
"Understood, instructor."
Yaltina nodded and stood up when she heard Fangzheng's order. When Ling saw this scene, he complained in dissatisfaction.
"Why don't you let me go with you, big brother?"
"Aren't you the captain of this warship? Then this is where your duty lies. "
"… Huh?"
Upon hearing this, Ling was taken aback. Fangzheng chuckled, waved his hand at Ling, and walked out of the bridge with Yaltina.
"Ahhhhh, if I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have become a captain!"
Ling hugged his head and sat back in his chair, complaining incessantly. Tida looked at him curiously.
"But Ling, didn't you take the initiative to be a captain?"
"…"
Ling was speechless when she heard this.
Meanwhile, on the tarmac, after the initial chaos, everyone calmed down and began to carefully observe their surroundings.
"I don't know who they are."
"But no matter what, they saved us, so they shouldn't be bad people."
"That's not what I meant."
A man with sharp ears, thick eyebrows, and big eyes in front of him shook his head.
"Although our shields had failed at the time, our warship itself was in irregular motion. It's simply unimaginable that they could teleport us out in an instant. Not only that … "
The man with sharp ears carefully observed his surroundings.
"There's no similar teleportation device here. It looks like an ordinary warehouse. How did they teleport us here?"
"Now that you mention it, it does sound strange."
Hearing his companion's question, Kirk was also puzzled. There was also a teleportation device on his Enterprise, or rather, the teleportation device itself was a standard feature on intergalactic warships. They could also teleport people to other places, or teleport things from other places back.
However, there was a prerequisite. Whether it was teleporting out or back, the target must be in the teleportation device. But the place they were in did not look like a place for a teleportation device — unless, of course, the huge room itself was a teleportation device, then that would be another matter.
"Not only that."
However, the pointy-eared man's analysis did not end there.
"I've carefully observed their combat style. Be it their shield technology or the hull of their battleships, they are all different from the battleships of any civilization we know of."
"Looks like we're going to be facing a brand new alien civilization."
Kirk nodded and looked forward. At this moment, the originally sealed door opened with a puff. However, the ones who came out weren't the fully-armored soldiers that everyone had imagined. Instead, it was a tall, black-haired man and a petite girl with silver-white hair.
"Hello, everyone."
Fangzheng walked onto the tarmac and nodded to the people in front of him.
"Welcome to the Lightning."
"Hello."
Kirk breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the other party was a human like him and could communicate with him. He stepped forward and stretched out his hand.
"I'm Captain James T. Kirk of the Enterprise. Thank you for saving us."
"You're welcome. I'm Fangzheng, and this is our warship, the Lightning … Erm, if you don't mind, can you tell us what happened?"
"Of course."
In response to Fangzheng's question, Kirk nodded and explained the situation. According to them, they found an escape capsule outside a space station with an alien female scientist inside. She claimed that her spaceship had crashed on a planet behind a nebula, so she asked for help. As a warship with the most advanced technology in Intergalactic, Kirk's Enterprise accepted the mission and passed through the nebula to rescue the stranded spaceship and crew.
But to their surprise, as soon as they passed through the nebula, they were attacked by a swarm of metal fighters.
"Hmm …."
Fangzheng frowned when he heard Kirk's explanation, but he didn't pay too much attention to it. Instead, he stared at the man standing next to Kirk as if he was thinking about something.
"What's wrong? Mr. Fangzheng? "
Kirk asked curiously when he saw Fangzheng's expression.
"No, I just thought … Oh, right!"
Fangzheng suddenly clapped his hands and looked at the man with pointy ears.
"You're an alien, aren't you?"
"…."
Kirk and the man with pointy ears looked at each other when they heard Fangzheng's question. The latter nodded.
"Yes, I'm a Vulcan. My name is Spock."
"That's why I thought you looked familiar."
Fangzheng nodded when he heard the other party's answer. To be honest, as a European and American face-blind person, Fangzheng basically couldn't remember the faces of celebrities. At most, he could only distinguish them by the color of their hair. So when Fangzheng saw Kirk, he didn't have much of an impression of him. But when he saw Spock, he suddenly had a little impression of him.
After all, this man had thick eyebrows, thin eyes, a pair of pointy ears, and a bob like Megumi Kato. His facial features were so unique that even Fangzheng, who was usually face-blind, could remember him.
"I'm sorry, have we met before? I don't remember …. "
"Oh, no, I just thought you looked familiar."
Faced with Spock's question, Fangzheng casually brushed it aside and quickly looked at Kirk.
"Captain Kirk, let's discuss the next matter in the command room. As for your crew, they can stay in the rest area on this floor."
"Okay, no problem."
Kirk nodded. At that moment, a crew member suddenly ran over.
"Captain! The alien lady isn't here. "
"What? How's that possible? "
Upon hearing this, Kirk was stunned, while Fangzheng looked at him curiously.
"What are you talking about? What happened? "
"It's like this. The lady who brought us here to find the stranded ship and our companions …. She didn't seem to be teleported to this ship with us …."
"Oh?"
Hearing Kirk's answer, Fangzheng raised his eyebrows.
"I'll ask her about this. Altina, I'll leave those people to you. Captain Kirk, come with me."
"Okay, can I bring a few people with me?"
"Of course not."
Altina then went to settle down the rescued crew of the Enterprise, while Fangzheng brought Kirk and Spock to the bridge.
"Ling, they said someone wasn't teleported up. What's going on?"
"Huh?"
Ling, who was sitting in a chair, jumped up when he heard Fangzheng's question.
"That's impossible! I was teleported up!"
"Little girls?"
Kirk's eyes almost popped out of their sockets when he saw Ling, Tio, and Tita sitting in front of the control panel. The warship looked about the same size as the Enterprise, so he thought there would be a lot of staff on the bridge. But what Kirk didn't expect was that there were only three little girls in charge of the controls on the huge bridge. There were two other people sitting next to them, but one of them was reading a book, while the other was staring at them curiously. They didn't look like staff at all.
Not only that, but the clothes of these little girls were also very strange. They were wearing very beautiful and wonderful clothes and skirts, unlike the people on the bridge who were wearing clothes that were convenient for moving in space ….
"How did you teleport?"
"I asked Tita to lock on to the biological signal of the attacker, then teleport …."
"Lock on to the biological signal and teleport?"
Spock frowned when he heard this. The existing teleportation technology also needed to lock on to the target, but they needed to lock on to the target's spatial location and then teleport it. According to what this little girl said, they didn't need to confirm the spatial location, but only needed to lock on to the biological signal to teleport?
Was it that exaggerated?
"I see."
Upon hearing this, Fangzheng nodded and looked at Kirk.
"Captain Kirk, is there anyone else besides that woman who hasn't been teleported here?"
"No. The rest of the members are basically here."
"Haha, then the problem is solved."
"… … You mean … … … … … …"
Kirk's face darkened. He was not a fool. Of course he understood what Fangzheng meant. The little girl said that they teleported after eliminating the biological signal of the attacker. Coincidentally, the alien woman was not teleported here, which meant that the biological signal of the other party was the same as that of the attacker.
If it weren't for the woman's request for help, the Enterprise wouldn't have gone to the planet behind the nebula …. And when they passed through the nebula, the metal fighters were already waiting there …. Well, that in itself was enough to explain the problem.
"Is there a problem? Brother Fangzheng? "
Tida asked uneasily as well. As for Fangzheng, he stroked her head with a smile.
"It's nothing. Don't worry. You did a good job. You even helped us eliminate a spy. Well done."
"Hehe …."
Tida smiled happily when she heard Fangzheng's answer, while Ling pouted in dissatisfaction.
"I was the one who gave the order …."
"Of course, you and Tio did a good job too."
Fangzheng also patted Ling and Tio's little heads, then looked at Kirk.
"Okay, Mr. Kirk, let's go to the command room to talk."
After that, the three of them went to the command room. Fangzheng looked at Kirk.
"So, Captain Kirk, what's your plan now?"
"Please allow me to make a suggestion, Captain."
Before Captain Kirk could say anything, Spock, who was beside him, spoke up.
"We should return to the space station immediately and ask for reinforcements from Intergalactic Alliance. The enemy outnumbers us, and we can't fight against so many enemies."
"But all my crew members have been captured. Besides, even if I return to the space station now to ask for reinforcements, I don't know when they'll arrive. That nebula is simply a natural barrier. It's difficult for the Intergalactic Alliance army to pass through it unscathed. "
Having said that, Kirk looked at Fangzheng.
"Mr. Fangzheng, I hope the 'Lightning' can help me rescue my captured crew members."
"Okay …."
Upon hearing Kirk's request, Fangzheng thought for a moment. He was actually not particularly familiar with this world. After all, he only saw it when he was young. The one that left the deepest impression on him was the alien with thick eyebrows and thin eyes. But according to Fangzheng's memory, this world seemed to be quite peaceful. At least there was no internal strife for power among humans. They mainly focused on exploration and development …. Cooperating with such a force did not seem to be too risky.
Of course, for Fangzheng, most of the risks were not risks at all. They were just troublesome.
Fangzheng had come here to track Hoarfrost's tracks and remnants. It would indeed be troublesome if he was alone, but Intergalactic Alliance was the largest organization in this world. It wouldn't be bad if he could get help from Intergalactic Alliance, right?
"Of course, that won't be a problem."
With that thought in mind, Fangzheng looked at Kirk and answered with a smile.
"That's great."
Kirk breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Fangzheng's answer.
"How many people are on your warship? Can you support us? "
"Um …. One, two, three, four, including me …. That's seven people in total."
"… Huh?"
