Thanks to the surprise attack by Fang Zheng and others, Kirk and his subordinates reached the place where the prisoners were held with almost no obstacles, and successfully rescued the captured subordinates.

Kirk was not happy at all about this smooth situation. After all, according to his experience, if things went well on his side, the other side would encounter unexpected troubles. However, after being reminded by his first officer Spock, Kirk suppressed his uneasiness and evacuated to the rendezvous point.

result……

“Too slow!!”

When Kirk and his crew hurried to their destination, they saw Ling sitting there bored and Fang Zheng chewing bread. The former started complaining as soon as she saw them.

"How could you be so slow? We are the ones responsible for attracting firepower, and you guys just need to take care of the rest. But you guys only came back after we were done. What were you doing? This is not a walk in the wild!"

"…I am just being cautious…"

Facing Ling's complaint, Kirk looked a little embarrassed. After all, because he could not use teleportation, he needed to lead hundreds of crew members through several dangerous places to reach their destination. Therefore, in order to avoid casualties, he chose the route very carefully.

Even though the base was in chaos, Kirk still subconsciously believed that Fang Zheng only had two people and would not be able to deal with so many enemies. If the enemy found out that they had more people, they would naturally shift their focus. In order to avoid this, he also spent a lot of effort.

"Well, everything went well anyway."

Fang Zheng clapped his hands and stood up.

"Is everything okay on your end? No one was taken away or missing, right?"

"Yes, the captured crew members are all here."

"That's good. Now it's Altina..."

"I'm back, instructor."

At the same time, Artina also fell from the sky and landed in front of Fang Zheng, then she handed him a stone slab.

"The suspected enemy commander has been killed. This is the spoils I seized from him."

"What the hell is this?"

Fang Zheng picked up the ring in confusion and looked at it over and over again. The outside of this thing was a circle of silver rings, and inside it was a piece of stone that looked very ancient. He hoped that this was the white frost fragment he was looking for, but he could not sense any breath related to the Order Clan on this stone. It can be seen that to Fang Zheng, this thing is really no different from a stone on the roadside.

"I don't know, but the other party once tried to use this against me, so it can be considered a weapon of some kind."

"Well, it looks like that captain knows something."

Fang Zheng glanced at Kirk, who was also staring at the stone in his hand in amazement, revealing a surprised expression.

"But let's get out of this damn place first."

As Fang Zheng spoke, the Lightning appeared out of thin air and slowly fell down.

Immediately afterwards, the group of people on the battleship flew out of the atmosphere and returned to the universe.

Kirk also explained to Fang Zheng the origin of the stone. It was entrusted to them by another alien race for negotiation. They wanted to make a truce with a race that had been fighting with them. As a token of sincerity, they presented this ancient weapon that had fallen from the sky long ago.

As a result, the other party did not accept their settlement proposal, and Kirk, as the client, was beaten up by the other party. So he had to temporarily put the stone in the warehouse of the Enterprise and wait for future processing.

But Kirk didn't expect that the attackers had gone to such great lengths to lure him here in order to seize the stone. In fact, during the attack, Spock, the first officer, overheard their conversation and realized that this was not a criminal act of space pirates, but a purposeful attack.

Of course, Kirk didn't know what the other party wanted to do with this stone, but judging from the fact that the other party was willing to attack the most advanced starship of the Alliance to get this stone, there must be some incredible secret hidden in it.

After getting Kirk's answer, Fang Zheng also made a decision, which was... to destroy it directly.

"boom!!"

In an instant, flames emerged from Fang Zheng's hands and completely enveloped the stone. Then a moment later, the stone was engulfed by the flames, leaving only a pile of black ashes.

"wait……"

Seeing this scene, Kirk was stunned for a moment before he reacted.

"What are you doing?!"

"Although I don't know what it is, it's clearly a weapon, and someone knows how to use it. In that case, it would be too dangerous to keep it. Just to be on the safe side, destroy it."

Fang Zheng patted the black ash on his hands and looked at Kirk.

"Any comments?"

"That's the Enterprise's safekeeping."

"Anyway, your ship has already crashed, and everything on it is probably damaged, so this one won't make a difference."

“Woo…”

After hearing Fang Zheng's words, Kirk's face turned pale and he began to shake as if he was stabbed by an invisible arrow. So the topic ended just like that.

There was nothing much to say next. After leaving the planet, everyone immediately rushed back to the Yorktown Space Station. Kirk took his first officer to report the situation to the commander of the space station. As for the remaining alien bandits on the planet, the Star Alliance would naturally find a way to deal with them, and Fang Zheng would not interfere.

So he took the little girls to wander around the space station.

“Wow…”

Although they had followed Fang Zheng through several worlds, the little girls were still quite surprised and curious about this space station. The transparent sphere suspended in space, the cities and high-rise buildings built on the basis of artificial gravity, all of this made the little girls extremely excited.

"This world is much better than the places we traveled through before!"

Ling commented excitedly, and Tida and Theo beside her nodded. Whether it was the world of The Witcher or the world of Middle-earth, the living environment was terrible. Although the city looked well-organized, the drainage system of this era was quite backward, and there was no good hygiene habit. Therefore, even if it was a city that looked magnificent, once you walked into it, you would be suffocated by the stench that hit you in the face.

This is also the reason why Ling and her group did not run around with Fang Zheng in Middle-earth, contrary to their usual practice. The clean-loving little girl really couldn't stand this.

But in this world, they can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

After all, we are an interstellar civilization, so we should be able to solve the problem of hygiene.

"Brother, can we build a city like this in Semlia?"

Walking on the street, looking at the space station in front of her, Ling's eyes sparkled.

"It would be great if we could build a beautiful city like this, right, Tita?"

“Yes! Yes!! Although it is a bit difficult from a technical point of view and may take many years, I will try my best!!!”

Tita also nodded vigorously with excitement, and looked at Fang Zheng with anticipation. For her, who had always been sensible and obedient, this could be considered a rare explicit expression.

But it's no wonder, although Tida is a good kid, she is a mechanical fanatic like her grandfather, and is full of enthusiasm for any achievements that can be achieved by machines. Especially like now, being able to build a city in the universe, this kind of complete industrial beauty, completely fascinated Tida.

“It’s not a matter of taking many years…”

Looking at Tita's shining eyes, Fang Zheng didn't know what to say. He couldn't tell Tita that the Goddess of the Sky had imposed a gravity well on Semlia, making it impossible for them to break out of the atmosphere and go to the universe. So to settle this matter, the first problem was to convince the Goddess of the Sky to close the gravity well... But there was probably no hope before destroying the Snake.

"Well, just try your best."

However, building a space station is a very difficult task. Even with his assistance, it would probably take Tita many years to build such a space station. Fang Zheng didn't think he would waste so much time playing hide-and-seek with the body-eating snake.

After that, Fang Zheng also met with the Star Alliance and had a conversation. Perhaps because this world was already accustomed to similar situations, they quickly agreed to let Fang Zheng stay here, but in exchange, Fang Zheng needed to assist them - the Enterprise crashed in the previous battle, and it would take at least a year to build a new starship. Therefore, the Star Alliance hoped that Fang Zheng's Lightning could temporarily replace the Enterprise to take charge of external exploration and development missions.

Fang Zheng didn't care much about this. On the contrary, he still had certain expectations for the trip, but Fang Zheng also had his own requirements, which was that only ten members of the Enterprise were allowed to board the ship. Kirk could perform his duties as the representative of the Star Alliance, but he was not allowed to interfere in the actions of the Lightning.

In short, both sides made concessions, and Fang Zheng did not lose anything. The Enterprise needed to investigate the unknown phenomena in this universe, and there might be clues related to the white frost. Besides, the Star Alliance was also influential in this world, so Fang Zheng would certainly not miss the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

Next, what Fang Zheng has to do is to find the fragments of Bai Shuang in this world, and then use them to completely lock down Bai Shuang's location.

What Fang Zheng didn't expect was that before this, he was involved in another trouble that he had not anticipated.
