From Terra to Terra, the Star Emperor's Holiday

The moment they came out of the coordinate point, without waiting for Si Ye to take action, the guard team jointly released a round of psychic shock. The zombies surrounding the coordinate point were turned into meat paste by the surging psychic energy in an instant.

"A…large laboratory?"

Although the human civilization in the dead space has mastered the grand unified theory and some advanced technologies that only advanced civilizations can master, due to the deformed social environment, they are still relatively backward in some areas.

For example, network engineering.

The members of the guard team easily hacked into the main control computer in this spacious laboratory through the external device interface, and a large amount of information was projected in front of Si Ye.

"Titan Space Station? Report of the loss of the Red Divine Seal? It seems that the black and red Divine Seals recovered by the Ishimura are here."

The divine seal that was sucked into the Star Sea Empire by the opening of the boundary gate was red. Combined with the coordinate information of this laboratory, it can be roughly determined that the red divine seal was the one salvaged by the first generation Ishimura planetary cracking ship.

Later, these two divine seals were taken back by the Earth Federation and used as extremely useful superluminal induction devices and unlimited energy, which eventually led to the extinction of mankind.

The reason why the boundary gate kept spitting out zombies was also found. Because the mental interference and pollution of the divine seal had no effect on the people of the Star Sea Empire, in order to conduct some experiments, the shield of the divine seal in the scientific hub was uncovered.

It seems that the advanced civilization that created the divine seal is quite capable. The special connection between the divine seals can even achieve cross-world connection.

So when the zombies secretly researched in the Titan Space Station were accidentally released, the special connection between the divine seals made the zombies gather at this coordinate point. With the special power of the divine seals, the coordinate point was constantly activated, calling the zombies over.

"Have the Academy of Sciences use their shield to cover the red divine seal again. Let's go and see the quality of human civilization in this world."

Si Ye chopped up the zombie fragments on the ground that were trying to gather together and gave instructions.

Chapter 292 Titan Space Station

Titan Space Station,

After the technology of planetary fission was mastered, Titan was one of the first planets to be fissioned. On the fragments that were peeled off, the Earth's colonial army built this space city on its surface bit by bit.

Although it is a space station, the scale of Titan Space Station is built entirely according to that of a large city, with the main body divided into a government area and a public area.

The government district is located on a fragment of Titan, spreading outward through three giant orbits, extending into an arc-shaped public area. A large number of civil and industrial facilities are located here, forming a spectacle that looks like a bustling city.

After the Colonial Wars, with the rise of the Unification Church and the decline of the Earth Federation Government, Titan Station has transformed from a nominal affiliation with the Federal Government to a completely independent city, managed jointly by station government personnel and corporate alliances such as CEC (Harmony Mining Corporation), with a maximum resident population of 100 million.

Studying zombies in a space station with nearly 100 million residents and workers of all kinds, Si Ye could only say that these big groups and the Unification Church knew how to play.

So when the corpse variants in the laboratory were leaked, with the blessing of the power of the divine seal, the infection of the corpse variants immediately became uncontrollable.

The zombies often only need to move along the ventilation ducts to quickly turn an area into a living hell.

boom!

The 20mm caliber compressed projectiles blasted the scattered zombies on the street into pieces. The guard team looked at the Imperial standard guard weapons in their hands with some disgust. They also found that simply smashing these "corpses" did not seem to be able to completely kill them.

In other words, apart from using high or low temperatures to completely eliminate cell activity, even if the corpse is crushed into minced meat, it will only prevent the divine seal from restarting these corpse cells for a certain period of time, and will not kill them completely.

"Don't fight them. Every cell in a corpse distorted by the divine seal will become a corpse cell. As long as the divine seal is still around, it's only a matter of time before they regroup and form a new corpse."

Si Ye looked at the manufacturing machines and vending machines on both sides of the street flashing various neon lights, and lamented the arrogance of the giant companies in this world.

With the technology of planetary cracking, it is completely impossible to lack resources and energy. However, these resources and energy are well hidden by giant corporations. Through information fragmentation, they induce civilians to believe in the scarcity of materials and energy, steadily and continuously raise commodity prices, and maintain their unshakable social status.

Manufacturing or purchasing products on the roadside not only involves high fees and various additional terms, but in this world of patent monopoly, it seems that even manufacturing a small pistol requires buying patents several times.

Si Ye was not surprised. This was clearly a high-tech society, so why were the residents unable to fight back at all when facing the zombies?

"Even though resources are so abundant they're about to burst, they still cling to the belief that scarcity makes things valuable, refusing to distribute even a single bit of welfare to the people."

Si Ye felt his hands itching, and the rope used to hang people somehow came out of his personal space.

"Help!"

After leaving the zombie outbreak area, the guard team forcibly blasted open a connecting gate, and Si Ye saw the first group of living people he had seen in this world.

A group of men and women in miners' uniforms ran down a sideways vertical passage, followed by zombies with bared fangs and claws.

A member of the guard team stepped forward, quickly dismantled the zombies into human sticks, and then stomped their heads. The deformed bone spurs of the zombies couldn't even scratch the power armor paint on the guard team members.

"Are you...are you the immigration government's army...or are you a rescue team coming to the rescue?"

As mentioned earlier, the Titan Space Station has become an independent city. After recruiting a group of mercenaries, the immigration government also has its own army.

However, according to the current situation, the defense forces of these exclusive space stations will most likely retreat to the government area after being severely damaged by the zombies and will no longer care about the lives of people in the public area.

"We are not part of the immigration government, nor are we aid workers from the federal government. You can follow us, but I ask you to also take up arms to defend yourself while we find a safe area to house you."

arms?

The survivors looked at each other in bewilderment. If they had weapons, they would never have been chased around by zombies. But seeing that the guard team had no intention of giving them weapons, they cast puzzled glances at Si Ye.

"Here, isn't that all?"

Manufacturing stations are everywhere in the space station. As long as there are enough materials, you can manufacture everything you need, including weapons.

However, weapon blueprints are often very expensive, manufacturing rights are also expensive, and ammunition is even more expensive. When these values ​​are added together, it is not something that a low-level profession like a miner can afford.

“…We have no authority and no credits.”

A leader among the miners stood up and told Si Ye about their desperate plight.

But it was obvious that in the pipes next to him, separated by a wall from the manufacturing station, abundant resources that could be used for material printing at any time were slowly flowing, which made the scene full of a strange sense of irony.

Bang!

Si Ye punched the main control panel of the manufacturing station, destroying its controller and allowing the nanorobots to take over control of the manufacturing station.

With the sound of beeps, the manufacturing station automatically entered the working standby mode without swiping a card to input credit points.

"Come on, that's all."

"This is company property! You can't do this!"

Before the hesitant miners could say anything, a man in a suit and tie suddenly emerged from the crowd, trying to stop Si Ye from illegally appropriating the company's wealth.

Then the thick black barrel of the guards weapon was stuffed into the mouth of the corporate dog dressed in a suit.

"Can your company come out and talk to me face to face? Or can your group gather security forces to confront me? You should be thankful that I don't need to squeeze the purchasing authority from your brain, so you can die more peacefully."

If the other party didn't jump out, Si Ye would have pretended not to see anything, but in this situation, he still had to protect the so-called company property. It was a pity that there were no suitable street lights around.

boom!

The company executive's head exploded, and the skull flew out in a spin. The surrounding miners all looked terrified, fearing that the executive would turn into a moving, deformed corpse after his death.

"Come on! Line up and take turns making weapons. I won't be your babysitter. If you want to survive, you have to fight for it yourself."

Under the influence of giant companies, these miners have been more or less domesticated. The sanctity of property that the company has constantly instilled in them has made them subconsciously timid.

But it seemed that Si Ye's fierce words had worked, and it seemed that the fear of death had overcome the shadow cast by the company in their hearts. Several miners took the lead, skillfully and quickly operating the manufacturing table, making the weapons and equipment they needed.

As expected, while the first batch of miners were making their equipment, the company executive who had lost half of his head on the ground also completed the transformation under the influence of the divine seal.

It stood up amid the miners' terrified shouts, its twisted limbs growing sharp bone spurs, and it pounced on the miners ferociously, wanting to transform more lives into zombies.

Bang bang bang!

The miners who completed the manufacture of weapons first opened fire, but attacking the zombies in the same way as killing humans was undoubtedly useless. The pulse ammunition caused one penetrating wound after another on the zombies, but failed to effectively stop the zombies' charge.

click!

Si Ye kicked the zombie that wanted to seek revenge to the ground, and at the same time removed the two spiked arms that had just mutated. Then he kicked it again, breaking its deformed legs.

"Your weapons aren't powerful enough. This monster can't be killed on its own. Hitting its limbs and then crushing its head will effectively halt its movements."

...

Chapter 293: Gun in hand, follow me

Si Ye's original idea was to clear out a similar area and then let these armed miners fight the zombies on their own.

But as Si Ye led the team forward, the crackling sound of gunfire attracted more zombies as well as more survivors.

After clearing out another batch of zombies and killing several ignorant executives of the Harmony Mining Company, this group of survivors began to spontaneously support Si Ye. Many mentally unstable fanatics appeared and refused to leave no matter how they were driven away. It seemed that they could only feel "at ease" by staying with Si Ye and the guard team.

Si Ye originally thought that they had simply developed a dependence on the garrison squad's combat effectiveness, but the more he looked at their mental state, the more he felt something was wrong.

Finally, he remembered a situation that he had subconsciously overlooked. Although the spiritual pollution of the divine seal had no effect on the people of Si Ye and the Xinghai Empire who were bathed in the psychic network, for the intelligent creatures in this world, it was simply a countdown to death.

Even if there were no zombies running around killing and infecting people, only a very small number of people with strong will or those who are not mentally sensitive could survive the mental pollution of the Divine Seal in the Titan Space Station.

Sooner or later, others will fall into madness due to the pollution of the activated divine seal, and eventually be controlled by the divine seal, committing suicide and becoming zombies.

However, the slight spiritual power field that Si Ye and the guard team unintentionally released just happened to offset the mental oppression brought to these survivors by the divine seal.

Although these survivors couldn't explain what they felt exactly, they could still tell the difference between a dizzy head full of noise and a clear mind. The instinct for survival drove them to follow Si Ye and the guard team closely, not daring to relax for a moment.

“…Okay, follow me.”

Si Ye scratched his head. Although the thinking of these miners who had been domesticated by the giant corporations had some problems, it was not their fault. It would be more appropriate to take them with him to find the culprit.

"Then... follow me, gun in hand, to kill the executives and seize the spaceship!"

Si Ye shouted a slogan, and the miners and the survivors who were rescued later looked at each other in bewilderment. The inhumanity of the giant companies was deeply rooted in their minds, which made them subconsciously a little afraid. However, when they touched the weapons in their arms, it seemed that the courage that had been dormant for a long time emerged again.

"Guns in hand, follow me, kill the executives, and steal the spaceship!" "Guns in hand, follow me, kill the executives, and steal the spaceship!"

After shouting several times, he startled several zombies that were hiding somewhere.

However, the initial group of miners were quite adept at dealing with these ordinary zombies, and there was no need for the guard team to take action. Several familiar miners cooperated skillfully, and the pulse rifle's not very accurate bursts of fire broke the lower limbs of one zombie, and then quickly switched to another.

In a short while, several zombies were beaten to a pulp. A few brave miners quickly bypassed the zombies' constantly dancing forelimbs and stomped on their heads with their steel-soled miners' boots.

"Looks alright, let's go, grab a spaceship, take the supplies and leave this troubled place."

Si Ye has not forgotten the small goal he originally set for the Dead Space World.

The speed of planetary fission technology in dismantling planets is no slower than that of the Earth-shattering Star, and it can also collect data accurately. Now if you get the technology and absorb it, when you go to the 40k world and meet someone who intends to fight a fortress attack and defense with him, Si Ye will directly dig the opponent's fortress off the planet and throw it into space.

"Um... sir, there are no more flying ships in the current space station."

The leading miner looked very embarrassed. Although Si Ye's slogans boosted morale, there were indeed no ships left at the Titan Space Station.

It is definitely abnormal for such a large and important industrial space station to be without ships, but considering the secret actions of the companies and the government on the Titan space station, everything makes much more sense.

Researching the divine seal had to be done in secret. After all, the lunatics of the Unification Church would not allow humans to blaspheme the gods in their eyes. If the news got out, they would be subjected to terrorist attacks from the Unification Church.
