Where there were people, there would be conflict.
Although Intergalactic Alliance was the representative of humanity in this world, it did not mean that everyone would agree with its philosophy. Intergalactic Alliance advocated peaceful coexistence between all races, keeping away from the Dark Ages, and peaceful development and exploration. However, there were also many people who believed that humans needed to control their own destiny instead of pinning their desire for peace on the aliens.
To put it bluntly, those who were not of the same race were bound to have different intentions.
Moreover, Intergalactic Alliance's current situation was not very good. The Federation had several conflicts with the Klingons, and war was imminent. Therefore, many people supported Intergalactic Alliance to rearm themselves to fight against the aliens who threatened humanity.
The Unification Church developed and grew on this basis. Its core ideology was to call for the unity of all mankind, to evolve to a higher level, to possess greater power, and to face the threats that humanity was facing now.
This was a headache for Intergalactic Alliance, but there was nothing they could do about the Unification Church. On the surface, it was just an ordinary religion, and the undeniable reality was that there was a possibility of war between humanity and the Klingons. The government could not just shut their eyes and say that it was for the good of everyone …. Although the Unification Church had done some bad things in the dark, they were still an ordinary religious group on the surface, and they had many believers in the human colonies. If they suppressed them rashly, it would only backfire.
Therefore, Intergalactic Alliance did not suppress them on the surface, but they had been keeping an eye on the Unification Church in the dark, trying to gather some information.
Their hard work paid off. They finally intercepted the information.
To be honest, this greatly shocked the higher-ups of Intergalactic Alliance. Just as Fangzheng had thought, a space station was not something that could be built casually, and the Unification Church had actually built a space station in secret without them knowing. Meanwhile, the Unification Sect had actually built a space station behind their backs. If it wasn't for the fact that something seemed to have happened to the space station and they requested help from Earth's headquarters, they probably wouldn't have known about it at all!
What was the Unification Church trying to do?
Due to the urgency of the matter, the higher-ups of Intergalactic Alliance summoned Kirk and the others and asked them to immediately search the space station and find out what was going on there, as well as what the Unification Church was trying to do.
In order to complete this mission, the best choice was naturally the Lightning.
"Hmm … Do you have the coordinates?"
"Of course."
"Alright, pack up and let's go."
Soon, Kirk brought Spock and the other members of the Enterprise to Lightning. After receiving the coordinates, Fangzheng immediately set off. The next moment, Lightning, which was originally parked in the space station, flew out like an arrow and instantly disappeared into the depths of the universe.
"Your mission this time is to search and observe?"
Sitting on the chair, Fangzheng curiously looked at Kirk and Spock beside him.
"What do you think the Unification Church is trying to do?"
"I think it's very likely that they've created some kind of powerful weapon."
Upon hearing Fangzheng's question, Kirk's expression turned ugly. He seemed to have recalled something.
"To tell you the truth, Mr. Fangzheng, just a few years ago, we encountered a similar incident...."
"That's right."
Spock was still in his humanoid robot form as he spoke in a flat tone.
"At that time, the Colonel of the Star Alliance Fleet awakened the genetically modified humans who had been frozen for hundreds of years. He wanted to use their knowledge to build warships with more powerful firepower, and he succeeded. Fortunately, we stopped him at the last moment, and the war between humans and Klingons did not break out. "
"So you suspect that the Unification Church is doing the same thing?"
Fangzheng shrugged his shoulders. He had to admit that he did not think that the colonel had done anything wrong. He was well-fed by doing it himself. What was wrong with humans having bigger warships? If the other party was going to be their opponent sooner or later, there was no need to waste time here. They could just use F2A to get there.
But this was a matter of Star Alliance, so he would not interfere.
"— — —!!!"
At the same time, Lightning left the hyperdrive channel again and appeared next to a planet. The huge planet was now falling apart, and in orbit not far from its main body, a metal city that looked like it was built from the debris of an asteroid was in sight. Under the bright red sunlight, the entire city seemed to be dyed in the colour of blood. It was as if even the galaxy was surging with the smell of blood.
"Wow...."
Elena could not help but exclaim as she looked at the scenery outside the window. Although she had been to many places, this was the first time she had seen such a magnificent sight.
Not only her, even Chiho and You Li were lying in front of the glass, staring at the scenery outside curiously.
"This is the edge of the neutral zone."
Spock frowned, but his expression didn't change.
"I didn't expect them to build a space station here."
"Maybe that's why they built a space station here."
Kirk appeared calm, but he also clenched his fists.
"In order to avoid provoking the Klingons, Star Alliance has limited patrols around the neutral zone. It's not impossible for them to avoid Star Alliance's search here and build a space station. But it's obviously not that simple.... I don't believe that a church has the ability to build a space station independently. There must be something we don't know. "
Having said that, Kirk looked at Fangzheng.
"Mr. Fangzheng....?"
"I know.... Hmm, but let's find out what's going on there first."
As he spoke, Fangzheng straightened his back.
"Teo, hack into their communication network and connect to their surveillance footage. Search for all the information on the space station. I want to know what's going on there."
"Yes, Mr. Fangzheng."
Teo stared at the screen, her slender fingers constantly typing on the keyboard. Soon, the screens lit up one after another, and a voice rang in everyone's ears.
"Warning, warning, warning. This is Supervisor Tedman. Reporting to all project personnel. I need all test subjects and test equipment destroyed. This is not training, Tedman. Call over … I repeat … This is Supervisor Tedman. There's an emergency at the base. In accordance with the 'Titan Space Station Citizenship Act', I hereby issue a martial law. All citizens are to be evacuated. Robbers will be shot immediately. This is not a regular training session. Evacuate to the nearest escape route immediately! "
"We're under attack! No, no, no, AHHHHH!!! "
"The government district! The government district has completely fallen! Requesting reinforcements! Damn it, is there anyone else? Answer me now!! "
All kinds of noises reverberated in the bridge. Even if they could not see the images, the conversation alone was enough to make them feel the urgency of the situation.
"Are you done yet? Teo? "
"I'll be done soon … Connecting to the surveillance system … System connection complete!"
After saying that, Teo stretched out his hand and tapped on the keyboard. In the next moment, a chilling scene appeared on the screen in front of everyone.
Corpses were everywhere on the screen. Corridors, passageways, reception rooms, restaurants, parks, or anywhere else. Blazing fires and bloody corpses could be seen everywhere.
"There are people over there!"
Kirk pointed to a corner of the screen. Teo zoomed in on the surveillance screen. As expected, a group of people were desperately running towards the escape route, but they did not manage to escape. Because at that moment, a monster suddenly appeared in front of them, blocking their way.
It looked like an ordinary human, but its limbs had become sharp, and there were two long tentacles on both sides of its shoulders. The monster roared and pounced forward. The tentacles on its body instantly pierced through the bodies of the two men at the front, killing them instantly.
But this was not the end. Less than two seconds after the two men's corpses were thrown out, everyone saw their corpses lying on the ground suddenly tremble, followed by tentacles bursting out of their bodies. Soon, the two men who were killed got up again, joined the monster's team, and killed their companions.
"F * ck, this thing is much more powerful than the T-Virus."
Fangzheng could not help but sigh when he saw this. The monster's transformation speed was almost instantaneous. It was much faster than the T-Virus, which had to lie on the ground waiting for its cooldown after being bitten to death. And judging from the movements and speed of these monsters, the slow-moving zombies could not compare to them.
"…"
At this moment, Kirk and Spock's expressions changed when they saw this scene.
"Captain, I suspect that some kind of biochemical weapon may have been leaked …"
"This is much scarier than any battleship …"
"Tio, how many residents are there in this space station?"
"According to the data, there are about a million people."
"How many people are left alive?"
"Less than five thousand."
"…"
Fangzheng silently narrowed his eyes and leaned back in his chair.
"Ling."
"Yes, big brother. What's the matter?"
"Load the Starburst Javelin Heavy Attack Missile, lock onto the space station, and prepare to launch."
"Understood."
"Wait, what are you doing?"
Kirk was shocked when he heard Fangzheng's order.
"You want to destroy this space station?"
"This space station has already been destroyed. What I want to do is to make it die a little faster so that there won't be any future trouble."
"But we still don't know what happened up there …"
"Tio will extract information and intelligence from the Internet. Or do you want to go up there and see for yourself? There are a million monsters up there right now. "
"But … Ugh …"
However, just as Kirk was about to say something, he suddenly furrowed his brows and revealed a pained expression. At the same time, the expressions of Spock and the other members also became strange.
"Ugh … I feel terrible …"
Irena also frowned and curled up her body.
"I think, I think there's a sound …"
"A sound?"
Fangzheng's expression darkened. He closed his eyes. Sure enough, Fangzheng could sense a faint aura and sound in the space station. Although the sound was messy, Fangzheng could tell what it was from the signal it carried …
This was what he was looking for!
Sure enough, hard work pays off.
Fangzheng opened his eyes, raised his right hand, and snapped his fingers.
Snap!!!
The crisp sound echoed throughout the entire battleship. The next moment, the drowsy people instantly woke up as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over their heads.
"What happened just now?"
"What the hell happened?"
At that moment, everyone exchanged looks, puzzled. However, Fangzheng did not answer. All he did was stand up.
"Prepare the shuttle. I'm going to the space station to check out the situation. Ling, prepare for launch and wait for my order. Teo, continue to search for information in the space station and report back to me."
"Okay, Mr. Fangzheng."
"Wait, we're going too."
Seeing that Fangzheng was about to leave, Kirk hurriedly spoke up, but Fangzheng shook his head.
"This thing is troublesome. You'll only die if you go there. It's better to stay here and wait for news. But … "
Having said that, Fangzheng looked at Irena. Noticing his gaze, the latter's expression stiffened.
"… What's the matter?"
"Since I've been paid, I'll help you out, Miss Witch."
Looking at Irena, Fangzheng smiled.
"Since you've already received the money, please come with me."
"… Ahahahaha …"
At that moment, Irena's expression completely froze.
