“What on earth did you do!!”
Walking into the interrogation room again, Kirk was too lazy to even be polite. He grabbed Diana by the collar and glared at her fiercely. The reason why this young man was so confused was simple. After learning that the communication with the earth was cut off, he immediately contacted the Yorktown space station, and then was surprised to learn that it was not only the earth that was in trouble. In fact, several colonies had problems now, and many places could no longer be contacted. At this time, the internal Star Alliance was also in chaos, and no one knew what had happened.
"I told you, it's too late."
However, Diana just sneered at Kirk, and then she glanced at Spock next to Kirk.
"What the Star Alliance is doing is wrong. Humans, only humans are the masters of the universe! But you, you have abandoned your mission and actually colluded with these aliens! You have no weapons, no power, and you only hope to achieve your goals through negotiations! Absurd, stupid! The history of mankind is a history of war!"
"That was the Dark Ages! This is the New Age, not the old one!"
"This is nothing but your delusion. All aliens are our enemies."
Diana was unmoved.
"Human civilization should be elevated to a higher level, instead of being mixed up with a bunch of alien creatures like it is now. Our enemies are not just the Klingons. Can you guarantee that the Vulcans won't rebel against us one day? They are the same as the Romulans! Humans can only rely on themselves in the end!"
Well, another Cebrus.
Fang Zheng shrugged. He was not surprised. Racial differences existed in every civilization. The saying that those who are not of my race must have different hearts has been passed down by our ancestors for thousands of years. There must be a reason for it. In the Mass Effect world, there is also such a human supremacist organization. Now it seems that the Unification Church can be regarded as their peer.
The only difference is that the former chose to be a terrorist in the technological age, while the latter planned to conquer the world with religious beliefs.
Now it seems that the Unification Church is still more powerful than Cyborg.
After all, no matter which generation, religious brainwashing is the most powerful.
And we can't say that the Unification Church has no reason at all. After all, with a gun in hand, there is no panic in the heart. And taking the Dark Forest Law as an example, whether it is friendly or hostile, it is always right to hold an olive branch in one hand and a sword in the other.
However, the Star Alliance seemed to focus only on daily development and communication and coordination, and did not spend too much time on upgrading its armaments. In addition, the humans in this world were not invincible. Both the Klingons and the Romulans were stronger than the Star Alliance, and the former were full of aggression. Fang Zheng did not believe that they would not go to war with the Star Alliance and could always maintain peace.
The same is true for Fang Zheng himself. Although he has always taken a non-interference attitude towards the development of various worlds, he has never stopped upgrading the Zerg in secret. If there is an opportunity to enhance the strength of the Zerg, Fang Zheng will not miss it. This is to be able to use the Zerg to support the situation in case of an emergency.
This is what we mean by "grasping both ends with both hands" and "both ends must be strong".
And now it seems that the Unification Church obviously looks down on the weak pacifism of the Star Alliance, so they simply rely on the divine seal in their hands to embark on the path of idealistic ascension to the flesh and blood... Now it seems that they have succeeded?
However, Fang Zheng always felt that things were not that simple, because the Unification Church's approach seemed to be a rational consideration of the future, but it was actually filled with radical and chaotic actions. Although Diana had been hiding this, Fang Zheng could see that the argument between her and Kirk was not simply a matter of the Unification Church and the Star Alliance's philosophies not being in line with each other.
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng looked at Irena.
"Aren't you a witch? Can you create a truth serum that will make the other person tell the truth?"
"Of course, but I don't have the materials in this world."
Irena spread her hands.
"A witch is not omnipotent. Although I can indeed make these things, I can't do anything without the materials. Unfortunately, this world doesn't seem to have the materials in my world. It will take time to find substitutes."
"What about magic?"
"It doesn't seem appropriate to use magic on this."
Irena was obviously reluctant, and Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders. He could also use similar magic, but as Irena said, the information obtained by magic could easily go wrong. Even if they could guarantee the authenticity of the information, it was not a good choice to have someone in such a world who could make you say whatever was on your mind.
If Irena was in her own world, she might not have hesitated. After all, there was magic and witches in that world. Most people knew this common sense and understood that witches could do some magical things. However, in this world, this kind of power was still a taboo. If Irena was not with Fang Zheng, she would not have used her magic.
“Big Brother!!”
Fortunately, Ling made a new discovery at this time.
"We analyzed the information file on that old lady and found new intelligence!"
"oh?"
Hearing this, Fang Zheng hurriedly left Kirk who was still entangled with Diana, returned to the bridge, and began to carefully look at the information in front of him.
As a high-ranking member of the Unification Church, Diana naturally carries a lot of important secrets with her. Of course, the Unification Church is not stupid, so these things are of course encrypted. However, this is of no use in front of the Lightning Number. It only takes a few minutes to crack it by brute force.
However, the more Fang Zheng read the information, the more solemn his expression became.
The intelligence that Diana carried with her could be considered top-secret documents of the Unification Church, and the information inside was even more shocking. According to the descriptions in these documents, the Unification Church had discovered the divine seal on Earth hundreds of years ago. Not only that, they also discovered that divine seals also existed on other planets. Since then, the Unification Church has been conducting research on the divine seal, including analyzing and replicating it, and then creating several replicas and placing them in different colonies for various experiments - of course, they basically all went wrong.
However, even so, the Unification Church still managed to keep strict secrets from the Star Alliance, and their plans were very careful. Although various colonial disasters occurred due to the out-of-control experiments of the God Seal replica, these disasters did not occur continuously in a short period of time, but occurred in units of decades. The Star Alliance has been expanding its influence, so it is not surprising that problems occur in a few colonies. As long as the problems are not too big, they will not care too much.
But Fang Zheng didn't care about these. He was more concerned about the description in this document.
According to the Unification Church's documents, they have almost figured out the entire process of how the Divine Seal works. According to the documents, the Divine Seal will emit a kind of mental fluctuation that affects the people around it. In this process, only the "chosen" people can obtain the knowledge and blessings of the Divine Seal, while others will have various hallucinations and then start a series of killings.
Then, the corpse of the person being killed will be transformed into a corpse under the effect of the divine seal - but in fact, this is not the end.
According to the document, after all people are transformed into zombies, these zombies will actively gather under the divine seal like moths attracted to light. When the number of zombies reaches a certain level, the final step will be taken - aggregation.
In other words, the divine seal will send all these corpses into space, and then these corpses will merge with the asteroids to form a half-rock and half-flesh creature - the blood moon.
And this is what the Unification Church believes is the final evolution.
They had previously conducted investigations in many alien ruins and believed that many alien civilizations had transcended themselves through this step and evolved to the next stage. That is why the Unification Church decided to allow humans to join this group, ascend to the next stage, and become truly advanced beings.
Diana came to the Titan Space Station this time, in addition to destroying the equipment here and allowing it to enter the third stage of aggregation, she also wanted to take Isaac Clarke away, because he was also the one chosen by the Divine Seal, and the knowledge in his brain was very important to the Unification Church, so Diana sent people to rescue him.
"In other words, if we hadn't blown up the space station, the corpses inside would have gathered in front of the divine seal and started to aggregate into a new higher life form?"
Fang Zheng stared at the document in front of him and tapped his fingers. He was getting more and more worried. Because according to the Goddess of the Sky, the purpose of the White Frost program was indeed to test the evolution of civilization, but its function was strictly speaking more like a test than active evolution, not to mention transforming all creatures into corpses and then fusing them together... Is this really called evolution?
Fang Zheng is now eighty percent certain that this program has definitely been contaminated by chaos. He just doesn't know the extent of the contamination. However, a single fragment is enough to cause such a huge impact on this world - a world that has already entered the realm of cosmic civilization. Then, the threat posed by Bai Shuang's body will obviously be even greater.
There was only one way to figure out what was going on.
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng made a gesture to Altina.
"Call Isaac."
Soon, the cosmic engineer who had fought his way in and out of the zombies alone and was unrivaled in the galaxy came in front of Fang Zheng. Facing the man in front of him, Isaac seemed very alert. It was no wonder, after all, he had been interrogated and tortured by the Unification Church before, and was very sensitive to any similar situations.
Fang Zheng did not waste any time. He explained the current situation to Isaac, and Isaac's expression changed immediately.
"What does this have to do with me?"
"It has nothing to do with you, but we want to find out what that aggregation is."
"I have no idea."
Isaac shook his head.
"I have no idea what you mean by convergence or something else. I know that the Unification Church has been studying these things, but I really can't understand what they are talking about, the knowledge... symbols... I only know that they are in my mind..."
"I understand. I just want to say... I read the interrogation records of the Unification Church on you. According to what you said, the divine seal once appeared in your mind in the image of your... deceased girlfriend and communicated with you?"
"That's right."
Isaac nodded wearily.
"I really thought she was alive at first, but she wasn't. She was dead. No, maybe I knew this a long time ago, but I forced myself to forget it... Anyway, she was dead. And the illusion didn't disappear. She still tortured me and haunted me... I hope I can become one with it."
It is the final evolution of Blood Moon.
Hearing this, Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows.
"Can you still see those visions now?"
“I can’t see it anymore.”
Isaac shook his head.
"After you destroyed the space station, the illusion disappeared from my sight. But I know this is not the end. If I encounter a divine seal again, the illusion in my mind may reappear."
"Um……"
In other words, the divine imprint in Isaac's mind is not just symbols and knowledge, maybe it is also a communication interface?
If that's the case...
"Mr. Isaac."
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng looked at Isaac.
"I need your help with something."
"What's up?"
“It’s very simple.”
Facing Isaac's question, Fang Zheng smiled harmlessly.
"I want to borrow your brain."
