Space Odyssey from Abandoned Mining Space Station-Chapter 500 - 167 Departure_3
After all, if this thing were left around without a special safety storage method, it would be very dangerous.
So in the end, what Chen Ming left within the Empire’s borders was a fleet of thirty-two ships, which included powerful combat ships like Armor Piercing, the Fourteenth Legion’s Law Enforcement, and the Torrent Level.
Under the condition of not provoking the military and officials in the Edge Star Realm, it could almost walk sideways.
Unfortunately.
Currently, what’s more important to Chen Ming is that the cruiser Bai Quan hasn’t arrived, nor has the Enlightenment Nerve.
One could only say that, being a cruiser and being the Enlightenment Nerve, it’s quite normal for them to be slow to arrive.
Certainly, Chen Ming wasn’t going to receive them before setting off.
However, since his Spiritual Power can now support the control of the cruiser.
That means, as long as he lets a Gamma Level Dusk he controls make contact with Bai Quan’s cruiser, he could impose control on the cruiser while also protecting that Gamma individual from being burned by the overloaded data.
So Chen Ming left two Gamma individuals at the boss’s place, one of which could later be sent to Bai Quan.
By then, Chen Ming can directly control it himself and operate to sail away the ship.
The Stardust Level Cruiser Carrier, Chen Ming is eagerly anticipating its performance.
Of course, what he got from Bai Quan wasn’t only the bad news about the undelivered cruiser and Enlightenment Nerve.
After finishing his talk with the deputy director and leaving the Administration Building, Bai Quan also shared a piece of good news with Chen Ming.
"I have acquaintances in the battle zone, and he told me that the senior officials there, who had conflicts with you, have been taken away."
"And it wasn’t an internal investigation by the battle zone, but rather, people from above directly came and took them away."
Chen Ming was very curious about this and urged, "Tell me in detail."
"The main reason is that their cooperation with Zuo Jing involved too many things, especially those few cruisers."
"The source of these ships is problematic."
"That Ruler was a ship originally planned for retirement due to its outdated model under the battle zone’s plan."
"Generally, retired ships have two end destinations—one is dismantling for material recycling to build new ships, and this Ruler was supposed to be dismantled."
"But at some point, something went wrong, and the ship disappeared. The battle zone has been tracing it ever since."
"And as you can see, it ended up in Zuo Jing’s hands."
"The two Defenders are normally sold by Sinda Corporation. They have an order provided by the battle zone."
"But there is no such list in the battle zone, and it’s not a problem with Sinda Corporation. It was someone within the battle zone using connections to secretly purchase it under the military’s name."
"This generally isn’t much of a problem, but linked with the previous disappearance of the Ruler, it becomes a huge issue."
"The last ship, the Eagle, has the most significant problem."
"It was also a retirement-bound ship, but it used another method for dealing with retired ships, generally reserved for ships that have made meritorious contributions."
"It involves dismantling the ship’s fire control system and using it as a museum piece, not throwing it away but directly converting the ship into a museum."
"To record the past of this Eagle and the achievements of the soldiers aboard it."
"To promote the army and incidentally recruit some soldiers."
"And then, well, this ship disappeared too and appeared here."
"So primarily because of these circumstances, the people from the battle zone left tangible evidence, leading to their capture."
"The involvement is certainly not limited to those who have grudges against you, and many people will be taken down."
Bai Quan finished a long speech in one breath and commented with some sentiment, "I really didn’t expect that even after mobilizing four cruisers, they couldn’t gain an advantage over your two, ending up in a state of fleeing in disarray."
"Your abilities are truly remarkable."
Chen Ming did not let Bai Quan’s compliments go to his head and calmly asked, "So, you’re saying that those who have grudges against me have all been taken in, right?"
"Yes."
"That’s good, but there’s still one thing I don’t understand."
"Since Zuo Jing was contracted by the battle zone, why would the battle zone mess with the Space Station? And even use Defenders sold by the company?"
"Were they looking for trouble with Sinda Corporation when they were already full? The company is still developing but is already a giant elsewhere."
Bai Quan, in a manner suggesting he knew a lot about the matter, said, "Then we have to talk a little about the situation between the battle zone and Zuo Jing." 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
"Firstly, you have to know that dealing with Zuo Jing is like negotiating with a tiger, especially one that just crawled out of the sewer. If you are not careful, you won’t just be bitten back, but you’ll also get filthy from the mess."
"Your company, the Space Station recently arranged for a director who has conflicts with you, right?"
Chen Ming replied, "That’s correct. I captured him and am currently interrogating him."
"Okay, then I’ll just briefly tell you."
"The battle zone took the initiative to contact your director, and they hit it off to kill you."
"But the director didn’t expect the battle zone not to move personally but to push out a scapegoat, who then found Zuo Jing."
"Zuo Jing also agreed and was helped by the battle zone to infiltrate the Space Station."
"They indeed achieved what the battle zone required—first attempting to kill you and, failing that, forcing you out to let the fleet handle it."
"You already know about the matters outside the Space Station."
"But inside the Space Station..."
"Zuo Jing completed what they promised, proving to be reliable."
"But afterward, they began to perform ’freely.’
"’Perform freely’? That’s quite an accurate description."
