Chapter 158: Chapter 157: How Can System Matters Be Considered Taking?
This was an Ironblood Mother Ship, so naturally, there were no shortage of Ironblood Warriors on board, totaling around seven to eight hundred people. Fang Zheng could have killed them all if he chose to, but firstly, it would be a waste of time. Secondly, the risk was too high. Moreover, Fang Zheng had to worry whether they would manually self-detonate as they did on the Hunting Planet… Despite the size of a cosmic warship, just blowing up the engine or other vital systems would be enough to disintegrate a warship completely.
Fang Zheng didn’t want to turn this expedition into a movie trilogy, so after he brought Nymph onto the mother ship and had her rewrite the operating system, he adopted a different approach. He sealed the entire control center and then — vented the atmosphere.
It was that simple. He vented all the air in the spaceship except for that in the control center, creating a vacuum, and Fang Zheng didn’t have to do anything. He just hummed a tune while watching the life signals displayed in front of him disappear one by one — yes, life detection is such an unscrupulous spell, the Prophecy System allows for anything you wish, do you accept that?
Although Ironblood Warriors embody cosmic technology, they still need to breathe. Their masks allow them to adapt to environments, but they cannot conjure air out of nothing. After an entire hour, once he was sure there were no signs of life on the ship except in the control center, Fang Zheng ordered Nymph to secure the ship again. He then sent the aliens to search for Ironblood corpses to hatch more aliens, and after that, he headed home.
Oh, of course, before that, Fang Zheng didn’t forget to check on the fate of the people inside the Pyramid on Earth.
Well… to be honest, it wasn’t great.
The old man’s plan was well thought out, but it was futile as neither Ironblood nor alien creatures would follow his script. The exploration team was parasitized by facehuggers, producing numerous aliens. The remaining two Ironblood Warriors, overwhelmed, activated their self-destruct skill in their dying moments, burying the entire underground space, and the main characters, having had no chance to escape… naturally perished with them.
Since it was a wipeout, Fang Zheng decided not to fire the Ironblood main cannon at Earth. So, after confirming that all the aliens were thoroughly annihilated by the Ironblood self-detonation, he dusted off his hands and headed home.
Job well done!
Sitting comfortably in the command center of the Ironblood Mother Ship, looking out at the endless Star Sea, Fang Zheng couldn’t help feeling triumphant and almost wished to recite a poem to express his inner emotions. Oh well, speaking of which, can he take this mother ship back to the Main World? If he really could bring it back, then once back in the Main World, he might as well go interstellar exploring. With the Zerg at his side, and accompanied by an Ironblood Warship, what place in the vast universe couldn’t he go to, instead of mingling in that tiny haunted spot of the Main World. Hmm… Speaking of which, he wondered if the starry sky in the Main World was the same as in his understanding, but it probably was!
Anyway, no matter what, let’s start by reciting a poem, just a bit of “If”…@@novelbin@@
“Ding.”
Before Fang Zheng could recite the poem, a system notification sounded in his ear, and a line of information appeared before his eyes.
[Extra Mission: Grand Opening]
[Our journey is the stars and the sea, our steps traverse every world, any Dimensional Mage possesses opulent, elegant, luxurious means of transport. Please note, luxury cars and beautiful women are the pursuits of life, posh cars are only fit for the powerful, only cowards sit crying in scraped up tins — Sell the vehicle you own, enable “Vehicles” category in the Dimensional Shop, and receive a “Vehicle” gift pack (Note: Whether this task is completed will affect the completion percentage of the conquest mission.)]
“……………”
Fang Zheng stared at the system prompt in silence.
This damn thing, are you addicted to ripping people off?
Let’s not mention your malicious mission briefing, just look at that last (Note)… aren’t you forcing me to surrender to the authorities?
Is there even such an operation?
Looking at the mission in front of him, Fang Zheng was utterly speechless. Was it easy for him? He had traveled all the way from Char to Earth, had struggled for so long in the icy Antarctica, and finally got his hands on the Ironblood Mother Ship, and now this crappy system pops up seeking attention… Why don’t I remember being this cheerful when I coded it?
And it even threatens me to deduct my completion percentage if I don’t comply.
Don’t bother explaining, I won’t listen, I won’t listen, I don’t want to hear, I just know you meant this, don’t explain to me, I don’t want to listen!
While mentally cursing, Fang Zheng sighed helplessly.
What could he do? He was also desperate, could he really not comply? Was that even possible?
Anyway, for now, he just hoped to draw some good stuff… But before that… I’ve got to make use of this junk first!
He silently accepted the task, and Fang Zheng did not choose to comply immediately. Remember, the system, though it can exploit loopholes like Confucius, don’t forget I created it. Trying to find relevance in front of your own dad, you’re still a hundred centuries early!
Yes, using waste is also necessary.
With a belly full of resentment, Fang Zheng returned to Char. This trip wasn’t exactly a loss, but it wasn’t a sure win either. It would take a bit of time for the Alien to be integrated into the Swarm unit, and as for the Ironblood Mother Ship… Fang Zheng first tested the firepower of the Ironblood Warship. Immediately after, Mirune had a clear understanding of its capability.
“At best, it’s only half as powerful as a Void Warship, nothing to fear.”
Considering that the Ironblood Mother Ship didn’t even have a Psionic Shield, relying purely on its armor, its threat level to the Zerg was only one fifth that of a Void Warship, something that could be handled with a wave of Self-Destructing Bats, hardly worth mentioning.
But how things would actually play out, you’d only know after a battle.
Indeed, Fang Zheng planned to use this mother ship as bait to lure the Ironblood, and then hit them hard!
Now, over eighty percent of Char Planet had been occupied by the Zerg. Completing the mission was just a matter of time. In fact, the Zerg had long been eager, unable to wait to mark their presence in this world. According to Mirune, the Leviathan, Corruptor, and Suicide Bats had already been ready in outer space, always prepared for a head-on confrontation with the Ironblood Fleet. Since the Zerg were battle-ready, Fang Zheng wasted no more time. He had Nymph send an emergency distress signal from the Ironblood Mother Ship to their home planet, and then he started waiting for his prey.
As expected, it wasn’t long before Nymph brought Fang Zheng some good news.
“Master, the Ironblood Fleet is undergoing a massive mobilization, they plan to dispatch a fleet to Char to investigate, I have recorded their coordinates.”
“Leave it to Mirune to handle it.”
Indeed, the thrill of technological suppression is refreshing. Fang Zheng finally understood what it felt like for the American forces during World War II to decode and exploit the Japanese codes.
Everything was under control, this round was stable!
But………
“Sigh………”
Looking at the huge Ironblood Mother Ship in front of him, Fang Zheng sighed helplessly. The mother ship had completed its mission, and what Fang Zheng needed to do next was to hand it over to complete the task.
“[Detection of salable valuable items, would you like to sell?]”
“Sell.”
Looking at the system prompt in front of him, Fang Zheng helplessly waved his hand, and then in front of him, the huge Ironblood Mother Ship instantly flashed a white light, and then completely disappeared without a trace.
“Sigh………”
“[Mission ‘Grand Opening’ completed. User has sold ‘Ironblood Mother Ship’ obtaining ‘Vehicle Gift Pack’ one portion, and earned 2330 Dimensional Currency from the sale, ‘Homeland’ mission rating increased]”
MMP!
Looking at the “Dimensional Currency” mentioned above, Fang Zheng’s face darkened. Dimensional Currency, unlike Dimensional Points and Crystal Energy, is like the furniture coins frequently seen in mobile games, meaning that these Dimensional Currency could only be used to purchase vehicle-type items in the Dimensional Store, and not for buying other things……..
This round was a real loss!
Who came up with such a wicked system, huh!
Oh……. It seems like it was me…….
MMP!!
He sighed helplessly, Fang Zheng stretched out his hand, hesitated for a moment, but still opened the “Vehicle Gift Pack” in front of him.
Now, he just hoped that his luck would be a bit better and he’d snag something good.
What do you think?
