Chapter 196 Exposed
However, before Yu Zhi could think it through, an incident reported from the lower-level district immediately sounded the alarm among the federal high-level officials.
Someone smelled a corpse at home and reported it to the investigation department.
This is a very common situation in lower-class areas, where people often die at home due to various circumstances.
The investigation department randomly sent two people to check it out, but as soon as they entered the room, they were shocked by the horrific death. This was not an ordinary case of starvation or illness.
The two guards tremblingly reported the situation on the scene to the headquarters, and more experienced personnel were dispatched, including retired personnel who had been on the battlefield.
They were shocked to find that these wounds were not caused by humans, but most likely by Zerg.
These two words weighed heavily on everyone's heart.
This is the central star!
After receiving the news, the military quickly sent people to seal off the scene. At the same time, at Wei Yuan's instruction, the entire incident was kept secret for the time being.
But for senior leaders, the central star has now entered a level one alert state.
This news was not hidden from Yu Zhi and others. She didn't need to find a way to speak up, and the Federation would do its best to protect her safety.
During this period, Xie Wenyu and others followed her closely, fearing that the Zerg would suddenly appear.
But Yu Zhi was secretly curious.
This is not the case in the plot. The Zerg hid very well and were not exposed to the public until the day of the attack.
Is it the butterfly effect she brought about?
*
In a sense, this is true.
The action team originally responsible for transporting the Zerg has already discussed the subsequent "informing" plan.
But unfortunately, they knew too little about high-level Zerg.
When team member A was delivering food as usual, he did not hide his resistance because he was separated by the ecological box, and as a result, it was directly read by the high-level mimic insect.
The IQ of high-level Zerg is almost the same as that of humans, and the mimic Zerg immediately realized that something was wrong.
In order to ensure that there would be no accidents in this operation, another anchor worm used the space jump skill that could only be used twice a week without any regrets, and hid in the control room where the crew usually stayed.
As no one in the group had any experience of encountering Zerg, they didn't notice anything unusual.
When they discussed the follow-up plan, the hidden anchor worm heard everything clearly.
"I plan to find a way to leak the news of the Zerg infiltration to the federal government after I land."
The team leader did not want to take his team members to their deaths, so he could not openly refuse the order from his superiors, nor could he let others discover their plans.
If a signal is sent from an aircraft, it will be too easy for both sides to detect the identity. The safest way is to wait until we reach the central star and then find another signal device to send a warning.
Although the Zerg above were eager to get rid of these traitors immediately, they still had some rationality.
They must rely on these people to sneak into the central star, otherwise they will be directly exposed when the aircraft docks at the port.
So, these high-level Zerg waited patiently until they arrived at the pre-arranged stronghold, and then acted decisively without hesitation.
The members of the group were just ordinary B-level transcendents, and they didn't even have time to react when facing the Zerg elite.
Blood spurted out, and team member A covered his neck and wanted to shout to warn others, but his cut trachea could not make any sound.
Even though the team leader had smelled the blood in the air and realized that something was wrong, it was still too late.
Before they could implement the plan they had discussed, they fell under the swords of several sickle-blade insects. Their faces were full of unwillingness until the last second before they lost consciousness, and they could not close their eyes in peace even after death.

However, the deaths of several people, by some strange coincidence, also served as a warning.
The federal government quickly launched an emergency investigation.
But in order not to alert the enemy, they only took blood tests from every federal citizen under the pretext of a national physical examination.
High-level Zerg have camouflage skills that allow them to completely shed their insectoid features, making them look just like humans. The difference can only be detected through blood tests or scanning with specific instruments.
This reason was originally a bit abrupt and awkward, but fortunately the Wenzhi Foundation had set an example before, and now the citizens of the Federation have become accustomed to this kind of pure charity.
Therefore, it did not arouse the Zerg's vigilance, but instead restricted the Zerg's actions and bought more time.
Naturally, blood draws were also arranged at the Central Military Academy.
Yu Zhi couldn't help but sigh at the strength of the plot's will. Even if there were twists and turns along the way, they all ended up in the same place.
Xiao Wang's background will definitely be discovered in this incident.
If ordinary interstellar physical examinations no longer involve blood draws, the time for revealing one's life story would definitely be much earlier.
However, this sigh only applies to the plot that does not affect her much.
For those situations where, for example, the original heroine had been thrown into jail by her and the male protagonists had also been taken into her possession, Yu Zhi would only say—
My destiny is in my own hands.
The cadets gathered in the central square, forming long rows.
At the front was a makeshift isolation tent, with several soldiers guarding both sides.
This is to prevent the extreme situation where the Zerg have already infiltrated the military academy.
Yu Zhi and his friends arrived a little late and were at the end of the line.
However, the team's progress was not slow. Almost everyone entered the isolation tent and had their blood drawn within a few seconds before leaving.
But because they were outdoors and it was summer, Yu Zhi was sweating a little.
Xie Wenyu took out a folding umbrella from his pocket and shielded her from the sun.
Sheng Jiayi took out a portable air cooler from somewhere and quickly lowered the surrounding temperature by several degrees.
Qiao Zhiyu bought her a cup of cold drink, which has the effect of clearing away heat and reducing fire.
As Chen Wang is almost the default "first wife", her treatment is naturally different.
He looked at the people who were "crouching low" with a condescending attitude, and stood beside Yu Zhi without any hesitation.
By the way, he can also enjoy the umbrella held by Xie Wenyu, the fan blown by Sheng Jiayi, and the drink that Yu Zhi occasionally takes the initiative to pass to his mouth to share.
Soon it was their turn to have their blood drawn.
Yu Zhi entered the isolation tent alone, and a medical staff member asked her to sit in front of an instrument and stretch out her hand and fix it in the empty slot.
It started with a beep, and she only felt a coolness on her fingertips, and it was over without even feeling any pain.
The word "normal" was displayed on the instrument almost immediately.
Even if she passed the examination, the same was true for the other four.
Unbeknownst to her, the central intelligent computer was performing calculations at an unimaginable speed, handling extremely complex affairs across the Federation and the Empire.
After the Central Military Academy drew blood samples this time, the instrument background will automatically analyze more data and upload it to the central intelligent computer for archiving.
The central intelligent computer only allocated a tiny bit of computing power, but it quickly received a red important event reminder.
[Data similarity of 99.982% with President Shen Lin's biomarkers was found in blood samples from the Central Military Academy, consistent with direct lineage.]
The central intelligent brain does not have the usual emotions of shock or questioning, and only makes judgments based on data analysis without emotion.
He chose to send this message to Chen Lin's private encrypted optical computer after slightly polishing the wording.
