Opportunities always come to those who are prepared.
Fang Zheng did not wait too long in the asteroid belt. Soon he saw the gate of the shield world open again, and then several Star Alliance warships came out. They looked like they were patrolling around the shield world. It was normal to think about it. The missionary's warship was hit by Elizabeth and it was not fully recovered yet. Of course, the missionary was worried that Fang Zheng would bring another fleet to block the gate.
Therefore, the best way is to send scouts to watch the situation outside. If Fang Zheng really brings people here, the missionaries might as well run away...
In fact, the missionary guessed correctly. Fang Zheng really came, but he didn't bring anyone with him.
But since he was here, Fang Zheng didn't expect to return empty-handed.
After seeing the team of Covenant warships, Fang Zheng immediately thought of a solution. He used the future vision to quickly determine the patrol route of the Covenant warships, and then sneaked to the edge of the asteroid belt. Not long after, he saw three Covenant warships passing by the asteroid belt. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Fang Zheng spread his wings with Charmander, quickly flew out of the meteorite fragments in the asteroid belt, and then found a corner to hide.
And naturally, the warships did not react at all.
This is the flaw of the space battleship...
Looking at the Star Alliance battleship behind him, Fang Zheng shook his head. Although the technology level of these Star Alliance battleships is very high, due to the fully enclosed design, they often have no idea what is happening outside the battleship. If there is something hidden outside the battleship, these aliens will not be able to find it at all.
Of course, only Fang Zheng can fly in a vacuum. If it were any other creature, they would probably die before leaving the atmosphere...
Due to the technological gap, the Covenant warships certainly did not notice Leander who was hiding nearby. They circled around, and after making sure there were no enemies around, they returned to the interior of the Shield World planet.
This shield world did not have a gravity well like the one on Requiem, and Fang Zheng knew why. Strictly speaking, Requiem was not a true refuge, but more precisely a prison, and the gravity well was the "shackles" that prevented the missionaries from leaving Requiem.
Other shield worlds obviously don't need this kind of setting.
After making sure that he had entered the shield world, Fang Zheng immediately left the Star Alliance battleship and found a place to land stealthily. Now that he had entered the shield world, Fang Zheng had a lot of tricks at his disposal. Naturally, he didn't need to do anything like 007, sneaking in secretly, exploring, killing enemies and playing with women... By the way, are there women in the Star Alliance?
Even if Fang Zheng was there, he wouldn't want him. He couldn't even stand looking at the Forerunner's Wu Ma photo, let alone the monsters of the Star Alliance.
After leaving the Covenant battleship, Fang Zheng took Charmander to find a place to restore his human form. He then hid in a forest and summoned the "Annunciation" to find the location of the "Mantle of the Immortal".
Soon, Fang Zheng got the information he needed.
"...The Mantle of the Living is docked at the Forerunner repair factory on the Shield World and is being repaired by the Temple Guardians. The Didact controls the entire 'Morning Star' and is responsible for controlling all the equipment here. Right now, the Didact is checking the repair status of the Mantle of the Living and plans to wake up the sleeping Forerunner AI after the repair is completed and release the imprisoned Flood on the Halo near the human gathering place..."
From the perspective of intelligence gathering, no one is better than the Whispering Book.
"Release the Flood? This missionary hates humans so much."
Seeing this, Fang Zheng was a little surprised. You know, the Forerunners were extinct because they perished together with the Flood - but wait, there was a question that Fang Zheng couldn't figure out.
Since you, the forerunners, were unable to defeat the Flood to the point where you were willing to sacrifice your entire clan to perish together with the enemy, why did you still want to capture some Flood monsters and lock them up?
What does this mean?
Although he was confused about this question, it was certainly not the point for Fang Zheng. He reached out to open his personal terminal and immediately contacted Nymph.
"Hey, Nymph? It's me. This missionary is a little crazy, and I want you to..."
As he spoke, Fang Zheng explained his thoughts to Nymph, and soon, the little angel's reply came from the other side.
"Of course no problem, Master."
"Very good, then I'll leave it to you."
Hearing the little angel's answer, Fang Zheng was relieved. He then turned off the communication and looked at the Annunciation in front of him again. After the missionary left the repair shop, Fang Zheng stretched out his hand and raised it to the void.
"Come on, unseal the Lord!"
Following Fang Zheng's call, the scepter of the key bag appeared in Fang Zheng's hand again soon. Fang Zheng turned the key to open the door to the connecting space and then walked in.
Fang Zheng had wanted to do this before, but the Forerunners' technology was really awesome. In the main world, the goddess of order somehow simulated a sun to give the main world light and heat, but the Forerunners were even more powerful. They directly stuffed a sun into the isolation space, and then pulled it into the shield world to shine!
And precisely because of this isolated space, Fang Zheng was unable to use the Unlocking Main and Teleportation Techniques before. However, now that he has entered the inside of this shield world, Fang Zheng certainly does not have to worry about this problem anymore.
The next moment, he appeared in the Forerunner's manufacturing factory.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, what a good thing..."
Looking at the huge and necessary Forerunner warship in front of him, Fang Zheng couldn't help but drool. It wasn't just the Forerunner warship that made him drool. The Forerunner's manufacturing plant also made Fang Zheng quite jealous. After such a long time of studying the Forerunner data, although Fang Zheng still didn't understand the Forerunner's technology tree, at least he knew what these things were used for.
For example, he knew that there was a branch in the Forerunner's technology tree where you could just throw a creation core over and it would automatically start and complete a series of processes from collecting raw materials to smelting metals to manufacturing battleships. This was more convenient than fighting AI in StarCraft.
This is obviously the case with this manufacturing plant at the moment, and since the missionary chose to repair his flagship in this factory, it means that this factory must be the Forerunner's highest-level warship manufacturing plant.
This is very simple. Can you use the same materials to build an aircraft carrier as you do to build a cruise ship?
Anyway, the Didact has already run back to the central control room to try to attack humans, so why don't we... hehehe...
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng touched the little fire dragon's head, and then the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. Then he lowered his head, looked at his hand, and then placed it on the metal wall next to him.
Soon, a line of system prompts appeared in front of Fang Zheng.
[Detected the Forerunner battleship manufacturing factory (including the Mantle of the World), requiring 87895680 dimensional points, do you want to redeem? ]
Tsk tsk tsk, this thing is really valuable. It actually costs me 80 million dimensional points in total...
Looking at the system prompt in front of him, Fang Zheng smacked his lips. Although he had consumed a lot of dimensional points since coming to this world, but so many dimensional points... System, can we discuss and arrange an installment payment?
I guess not.
Fang Zheng hesitated for a moment, but finally made a decision. Although he would basically go from a rich man to a pauper once the dimensional points were issued, at least he had a mine at home. After the Ishimura had mined all the spiritual crystals, he could exchange them for his dimensional points and they would be back. As for money, what value would it have if it was not spent? !
At this moment, the missionary did not know that someone was planning to attack his warship. He came to the main control room of the Shield World with a proud look on his face, and using his authority, he quickly connected to the "halos" close to humans.
"Foolish human..."
Thinking of the previous disastrous defeat, the missionary clenched his fists in anger. He would never accept such a defeat! Humans, humans are the eternal enemies of the pioneers. They are definitely not the successors of the pioneers... No, it should be said that these successors should not exist in the first place!
The think tank chief’s idea is wrong. All human beings must be completely wiped out!
This world, after all, belongs to us, the pioneers. Since we cannot control this world again, then... let you be buried with us!
Thinking of this, the missionary's expression became even colder. He glanced at the ring in front of him, then stretched out his hand.
"Shut down the imprisonment system and release the Flood!"
【drop--!!】
However, at the moment when the missionary entered the command, suddenly, a series of warning sounds sounded. Then, a line of prompt information appeared in front of the missionary.
[Halo 05, 07, 09 self-destruct system activated]
[Halo self-destruct activated]
"What's going on?!"
The missionary was completely stunned by the scene before him.
He recalled carefully and confirmed that he had indeed executed the command to release the prison, but why did he activate the self-destruction of the halo? !
Of course the missionary didn't know that this was a small gift from Fang Zheng and Nymph.
In fact, Fang Zheng had just learned what the missionary was going to do through the Whispering Book, so he contacted Nymph and asked the little angel to invade the systems of the three rings and modify the intelligence information inside. The missionary did not make any mistakes in the operation, but... the little angel changed the connection port on the other side.
"No, damn it! Cancel the self-destruct! Cancel the self-destruct!!"
The missionary tried desperately to cancel the self-destruction, but he was specialized in combat, not information manipulation. The little angel was much better than him in this aspect, so the missionary could only watch the countdown on the screen return to zero, and then...
[Halo self-destruction completed]
“Damn it——!!”
The missionary slammed his fist on the control console, but before he could completely vent his anger, the communication was activated again, and then the voice of a Covenant commander sounded.
"Report to the commander, your ship, it's gone!"
"What? Gone?"
Upon hearing this report, the missionaries were confused.
What do you mean by disappeared? Could it be possible that my own ship could just run away?
However, when the missionary came to the manufacturing plant again, everything he saw made him completely speechless.
“This, this, this…”
In front of the missionary, the original manufacturing factory had long disappeared, leaving only a bottomless pit... and a receipt placed not far away.
"The goods have been signed for and I give you a five-star rating."
