When Irena followed Fangzheng into the shuttle, she was filled with despair.
"Our agreement didn't say that we have to do something so dangerous!!"
"Our agreement didn't say that we won't do it either."
Fangzheng silently glanced at Irena.
"I said I needed your help, and you agreed. I also paid you … See, it's reasonable, isn't it?"
"… Then I'll return the gold bar to you now …."
"Hahaha, I think you've misunderstood, Miss Irena."
Facing Irena's bitter response, Fangzheng chuckled again.
"Do you remember what we agreed on back then?"
"…."
"I hired you to work for us, and the reward was a gold bar. You agreed. So now, I'm your employer. We have an employer-employee relationship. The so-called employer-employee relationship refers to the relationship of rights and obligations formed by you providing me with services, and I'll pay the corresponding remuneration. According to the contract, your work must be carried out under the condition that you are highly obedient to the employer …. "
Irena's expression changed again.
"So …?"
"So, if you don't provide your services, you'll be violating the contract."
Fangzheng crossed his arms and looked at Irena with a faint smile. He had plenty of experience in dealing with such people. Back then, Jia Baili, who was as lazy as a pig, had been ordered around by him until she was in a state where she could neither live nor die. Don't underestimate the power of a planner that could make an employee give up their vacation and work overtime!
"But, but this job is too dangerous!"
"Hmm, your question is reasonable."
Fangzheng waved his hand, and another gold bar fell in front of Irena with a bang. Elena, on the other hand, looked at the gold bar and couldn't help but swallow her saliva.
"Two, two gold bars and you want me to die with you? That's too …. "
"Bang!"
"… No, it's not about the money. I'm just an ordinary 18-year-old witch. Do you think I can deal with that monster? "
"Bang! Bang!"
"… … This … … It's really dangerous over there … …"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
"… Please leave it to me!"
Elena quietly picked up the gold bars on the ground and stuffed them into her bag before patting her chest.
"When I was 14 years old, I only took a year to become a witch. I'm a genius witch, the Gray Witch Erena! In my eyes, this small problem is not a problem at all. "
"Then, let's go."
Fangzheng chuckled again as he turned around and boarded the shuttle.
Are you kidding me? This is like overtime pay. You can get it, but can you spend it?
As for why he wanted to bring Ileana along, the reason was simple.
Fangzheng sensed that something in this space station was emitting waves. It was the wave signal of the Order race, but it wasn't complete and was even incomplete. Because of this, the space station was in a bad state. Simply put, it was as if it had been polluted by an enhanced version of the Light of the Ancient Gods.
To Fangzheng, blocking such signals was not a problem, which was why he let the others stay on the warship.
As for the reason why he brought Elena along …
As everyone knew, a party needed three great artifacts.
And now … Fangzheng silently glanced at the wand in Ileana's hand and gave her a blessing.
All right, now that the three great artifacts are here, I'm safe.
Soon, the shuttle left the Lightning and flew towards the space station. Ileana sat on a chair and looked at the space station in the distance. She suddenly sighed.
"I've been to a country similar to this place before."
"Hmm?"
"I heard about it when I was traveling. The people of that country would dress up as ghouls to welcome tourists from other countries, so I went to take a look."
"And then?"
"In the end …. That country had completely turned into a ghost town, a world occupied by ghouls. I finally met a few survivors and heard the truth from them. I heard that a mage in that country felt that pretending to be ghouls was too useless and that realism was very important, so he caught a few real ghouls and let them in. The people of that country also felt that it would be more interesting to use real ghouls, so they agreed. "
"So they let ghosts in a haunted house? That's fun. "
"Yes. Although the mage carefully pulled out the teeth of the ghouls, he didn't seem to know that the ghouls would be infected if they bit you. So it didn't take long for the country to be completely infected."
"What happened to the survivors?"
"They didn't intend to leave. They seemed very excited about the situation. Some of them even developed a super smelly perfume. As long as you spray it on, you won't be discovered by the ghouls, so they didn't care. So I left them behind and left alone. "
Like a fanatical Resident Evil survivor meeting a real Resident Evil? That was indeed exciting.
"But when I went back a month later, I found that the rest of them had also become ghouls. Because a lost puppy turned into a ghoul. Its nose seemed to be more sensitive, so it could smell the scent of living people even in a large group of ghouls. So, the rest of them were all bitten and turned into ghouls. "
Ileana supported her cheek with her right hand and looked at the starry sky outside in boredom.
"Just like that, that country became a nation of ghouls."
"People who seek death are the same in every world."
Fangzheng shrugged, then looked at the space station that was gradually approaching.
"Okay, I think we're about to reach another place of seeking death … Teo, what's the current situation in the space station?"
"Signs of life have disappeared in most areas, Mr. Fangzheng."
Teo sounded a little uneasy.
"Those terrible monsters are everywhere, but they don't show any life signals on the life detector. Only a few of them have very scattered life signals. I tried to read the details of the plan, but they're physically isolated …. "
"Good job. Now, show us the way."
Fangzheng was not dissatisfied with Teo's answer. After all, Teo was not the little angel who could manually change any information structure. But no matter how powerful Teo was, he was only an information technician. A physically isolated network was nothing in front of the little angel. After all, for the little angel, any information exchange was considered part of the "information network", but Teo did not have that kind of power.
"Okay …. Let's go, Mr. Fangzheng …. You can land at the entrance of the government district. I can open the gate for you, but the situation inside isn't very clear. Those monsters are everywhere. They've destroyed a lot of equipment and connections, and many places are on fire. I've tried to find the person in charge of the space station, but I can't find him. He must've locked himself in a very secure place …."
"Okay, that's not a problem for us. Let's go."
Soon, the shuttle entered the space station. Even from the outside, they could see how chaotic the space station was. There were traces of explosions and collapses everywhere. The flashing lights of the alarm enveloped almost everything. Fangzheng piloted the shuttle to a parking apron near the government district according to Teo's guidance. Just as they approached the gate, the airlock slowly opened.
Bang!!!
Suddenly, dozens of corpses flew out and scattered in all directions. One of the corpses even hit the window of the shuttle, startling Elena. But before she could react, the corpse suddenly exploded and turned into a monster with several tentacles. The monster roared at Fangzheng and Elena through the window, but it was immediately repelled by the activated shield and smashed into the wreckage not far away.
"…."
Elena's face turned livid when she saw this. But when she reached out to pinch the gold bar in her bag, she immediately relaxed.
Everything … should be fine, right?
Soon, the shuttle entered the airlock, and the airlock closed again. The alarm disappeared, and everything returned to normal.
"Okay, let's go."
Fangzheng stood up and looked at Elena.
"Is there anything else you need to prepare?"
"Well … no."
"Are you sure? I advise you to put on a protective suit and helmet. This place isn't like other places, after all. "
"No need. I'm the Witch. If this is all you've got, it won't be a problem for me."
Irena shook her head and looked at Fangzheng again. The latter didn't say anything. He just shrugged his shoulders and opened the shuttle's hatch. Soon, the stench of blood rushed out, causing Irena's face to turn pale. She quickly covered her nose and looked at Fangzheng. The latter had already put on his helmet and was staring at the girl beside him.
"Is there anything else?"
"…. Where's the protective suit?"
"It's over there. Do you need me to change it for you?"
"No need. I'll do it myself."
Elena decisively refused Fangzheng's kindness and rushed into the room next door. Fangzheng shrugged and looked back at the tarmac outside the door. Because Teo had opened the hatch just now, all the debris here had been sucked into the vacuum. Nothing was left. But even so, Fangzheng could still feel the strange signal reverberating, as if it was looking for something.
Who would have thought that a small piece of Hoarfrost's wreckage could destroy a space station with a population of a million?
It seemed that the Goddess of Space was no less troublesome than the Goddess of Order.
