Chapter 262 Action

The words "dimensional infection" suddenly popped out of Chen Ming's mouth. The other end of the phone was wearing a pair of half-rimmed glasses. The expression of the deputy director of the local Star Territory Anti-Cult Bureau, who originally looked a little surprised, immediately changed, and he also subconsciously felt it in his heart. The ground was startled.

He had just heard of this word, not long ago at a meeting where the government of the Audan Star Territory regularly reported on its work.

Although it is a regular meeting to report on work, this meeting can be said to be held for this dimension of infection problem.

Because some time ago, the propaganda about the recent outbreak of newborn deformities in the empire was an unknown infectious disease.

As a government official, the deputy director has heard that the specific situation is more complicated and terrifying, but he is from the Anti-Cult Bureau, not the Population Bureau or the Medical and Health Bureau, so he doesn't care.

At this meeting, the Empire could be said to have completely clarified the concept of dimensional infection and confirmed that it was related to the wave of neonatal deformities.

Moreover, the wave of deformed children caused by the last dimensional infection that he didn't even know was sealed up decades ago was also revealed at this meeting.

This meeting even directly denied the excuse that the cloning ban was enacted because of ethical issues, making it clear that the cloning ban was because human cloning would lead to dimensional infection incidents.

He noticed at the time that many officials who were older or had experienced long periods of dormancy were not surprised when they heard the news.

Only someone like him, who was relatively young and had never slept, was a little shocked after learning the news.

Since their star domain government made this matter explicit during the meeting, then this is definitely the empire's instruction, and the attitude is very clear.

We must find ways to solve this dimensional infection, prevent and kill it in its early stages.

In addition to their star domain government holding such a meeting, other star domains will definitely take similar actions, which can be said to completely expose the dimensional infection.

It won't be long before some gossip spreads throughout the empire.

According to the meaning of this meeting, dimensional infection may be a state that the empire will maintain for a long time in the future.

Therefore, the head of the government of their star field asked each department during the meeting that if signs of dimensional infection are really discovered, they need to contact the psyker department to deal with it as soon as possible, and cooperate with the confidentiality work.

Just what was said in the meeting has left a deep impression on the deputy director's mind about the dimensional infection.

And it was a few days after the last meeting.

The leader also suddenly privately took the head of their psychic energy department, whom he had met several times, to the Anti-Cult Bureau. They met with him, the deputy director, and the director, and talked about the left path and dimensions. The infection thing.

From that moment on, it was impossible for him to forget the concept of dimensional infection and the huge trouble caused by the left path.

So at this moment, the deputy director directly covered the interface of the terminal used by the operator, waved his hand to the other people in the room and said: "Get out of here and tell people to seal this recording in my hand. Only me and Director calls."

The others immediately complied and left the room where the operator worked.

The deputy director immediately released his mouthpiece and said to Chen Ming: "The rest of the gang are gone now, please speak."

"It seems that you should also know about dimensional infection, so I will tell you directly."

"Your Odan-5 star sector, the Taal galaxy, has an ecological observation space station here. A dimensional infection event broke out on this space station."

"In addition, this space station is closely related to Ludd's Left Path. It is a small-scale dimensional infection caused by Zuo Path's human cloning research on the space station. You should be able to find some interesting news."

When the deputy director heard the name of this galaxy, he had already manually searched for it on the terminal.

Soon he saw information about a space station that had been quiet, and he also happened to find information about Ye Lirong, the local director of the district-level culture and tourism department, going to the space station.

This discovery made him a little surprised and silent.

Because he still somewhat believed what the stranger on the other end of the phone said.

Originally, the deputy director could not directly confirm from Chen Ming's words that the dimensional infection had indeed occurred, but now Chen Ming has indeed shown a certain ability.

He also accurately stated that the dimensional infection originated from human clones and was closely related to Zuo Jing.

These two points allowed him to basically choose to believe Chen Ming.

Because of this, the deputy director felt a little uncomfortable after hearing that a minister from a lower-level government department was suspected of having contact with Zuo Jing.

It's not that Chen Ming made this point uncomfortable, but that he, the deputy director of the Anti-Cult Bureau, felt uncomfortable when he heard that a fellow official was related to a cult like Zuo Jing.

However, he did not directly clarify this point now, and just asked: "Is it confirmed that a dimensional infection has broken out?"

What he saw in the database flashed through Chen Ming's mind.

It is currently known that the infection target of the dimensional infection is the stomach of the clone, and the distortion occurred a week ago.

This shows that the dimensional infection has already occurred a week ago, but since there is no large-scale distortion, it means that Zuojia has indeed controlled the dimensional infection, and the dimensional infection has not actually broken out.

"It's not accurate to say it's an outbreak. There are only some early symptoms. Zuo Jing has used some means to limit the dimensional infection."

"How did they do it?"

"Do you mean Zuo Jing created the dimensional infection, or did they limit the dimensional infection?"

"Both."

Chen Ming immediately told the information he got from the underground laboratory database: "Regarding Zuo Jing's dimensional infection, you should want to know how they made a large number of clones, right?"

"This is because the cloning technology has new alternative materials that are not controlled by the Empire under Zuo Jing's research. I can tell you the names of the materials now. You can take the names and ask the laboratories that have had cloning experiments before, asking them if they can make alternatives."

"But they are all new materials. It may take time for them to verify, and the results will not come out so quickly."

"It's okay, just tell me, I'm taking notes."

Chen Ming glanced at the warehouse area of ​​the underground laboratory.

Here, some of his metal liquid also spread over, and he had found those materials in the warehouse area and obtained some samples, which could be left as evidence later.

After reconfirming the contents of the database, Chen Ming told the deputy director the names of several materials.

The deputy director immediately handed the paper with the materials to a person waiting outside the door. After briefly explaining the task to him, he returned to the room.

"I have asked someone to verify it. Have you figured out how Zuo Jing suppressed the dimensional infection? As far as I know, the dimensional infection outbreak is very strong. If it is in a densely populated place like a space station, one day is enough to destroy the entire space station."

"Indeed, under normal circumstances, one day is enough for the dimensional infection to break out, but Zuo Jing has deployed a large number of isolation membranes made of silent alloy on this space station to block the spread of dimensional infection."

"Silent alloy?"

"You don't need to know what this thing is for. You just need to tell people the term truthfully, and someone will understand. Your government should have psychics, right?"

"Yes."

When Chen Ming got this answer, he basically confirmed that there would be no problem after he said what he just said.

However, after thinking about what Zuo Jing was doing on the planet below in addition to the space station, he still spoke again: "We must send professionals, who can fight and at least protect themselves."

"Zuo Jing is not only doing cloning experiments and dimensional infection, they seem to be doing some other experiments on the planet below the space station."

"I can only roughly describe the specific effect. It is a deformed human tissue that makes people feel good for no reason without the protection of spiritual stones. Remember to explain my description to the psychic who is connected with you in full."

"When people come, be careful not to let ordinary people get close to the space station and the planet."

Such a detailed description does not sound like it is made up, and it certainly will not be stated that he can find someone to verify it directly.

So after combining what Chen Ming said before, the deputy director has completely believed Chen Ming at this time.

"I know, if the news you said is true, this will be a very important contribution. You should also be a psychic, right? I would like to ask about your identity. We will not treat anyone who has made contributions to the empire unfairly."

Chen Ming was still quite surprised to hear this, but he still let someone investigate An Wuping's identity, so he would not expose it directly.

What others have investigated is definitely more believable than what he says.

Anyway, he has already laid all the necessary groundwork for his identity.

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, your people will most likely know who I am when they come, so I won't waste my words.

"Also, in order to prevent Zuo Jing from sneaking into your Anti-Cult Bureau, I will make a call to the military in your star field in two hours."

"In another three hours, I will send this message to all the media I know. That's it. Goodbye."

"Wait a minute."

The deputy director suddenly raised his voice and asked, "Why did you think of our Anti-Cult Bureau first when you were involved in the dimensional infection incident? "

Why did he go to the Anti-Cult Bureau...

Of course, it was because Chen Ming knew what the president was doing these days.

After the president confirmed from him some time ago that Zuo Jing had manually created and controlled the dimensional infection, he went to the department in the empire to deal with such things.

Cooperate with them to announce the news of the dimensional infection among governments at different levels in the empire, and by the way, link Zuo Jing and the dimensional infection together.

The president did not hide these things from him, but kept communicating with him in real time.

So in this case, the Anti-Cult Bureau, which is specifically targeting Zuo Jing, must be the most important government department. The object of the work must be arranged.

If the deputy director of the Anti-Cult Bureau does not know the connection between Zuo Jing and dimensional infection, then the problem is even more serious than the space station being occupied by Zuo Jing.

Of course, the government's psychic department must be responsible for dealing with dimensional infection.

No other department has the ability to deal with it.

But Chen Ming does not have the phone number of the local psychic department.

The main reason is that the empire has not announced the existence of psychics, and only people with a little status in the government and the military know about this psychic department.

So they don't have a public phone number to call.

Chen Ming was too lazy to find someone to check and ask.

But since other government departments cannot handle it, this task will most likely fall on the Psychic Department in the end.

Government departments must have communicated with each other.

The government's Psychic Department is also relatively independent and has a higher status than other departments. It is not so obvious that there is competition between them that they would conceal this information.

Even if it was concealed, Chen Ming said that he would pass the news to others.

Whether the government should take the risk to handle it and enjoy the credit alone, or just throw the matter out to others to deal with, that is the government's problem.

Chen Ming naturally called the Anti-Cult Bureau in the end, which was about the same.

Of course, no matter what, the responsibility of delaying the time when this space station was noticed, causing the initial outbreak of dimensional infection, and giving Zuo Jing more time to study, all lies with Chen Ming himself, so solving Zuo Jing and the trouble caused by Zuo Jing is still his task,

even if Chen Ming has already told this matter, it will not change.

It's just that the solution is solved, and what should be done with the space station and ordinary people on the space station is none of his business.

There is dimensional infection on the space station, and he can only deal with the source of dimensional infection at most.

As for what to do with those who have experienced the dimensional infection? How to deal with so many ordinary people?

These two questions.

Chen Ming doesn't have the time to first distinguish every civilian who is not disguised by Zuo Jing from the Zuo Jing space station, and then find and take care of those who are affected by the dimensional infection.

If the dimensional infection has really broken out, it will be fatal to ordinary people.

However, if the dimensional infection is only in the early stage, it will not be directly fatal to ordinary people, but it is too troublesome to distinguish.

Chen Ming can only ensure that his next actions will not accidentally hurt civilians as much as possible, but it is impossible for Chen Ming to take care of all civilians.

He is An Wuping now, not Chen Ming. An Wuping does not have the ability to protect so many civilians...

Wait, it seems that there is.

As long as he shows some of the Queen's abilities, he can rely on the Queen to produce a large number of fungal blankets and some body tissues derived from Zerg units to cover the entire space station, and create the same effect as controlling everyone with metal liquid in the colony.

It's just that Chen Ming's original idea was that he had no metal liquid, so he had no means to protect people on a large scale.

So he would take the initiative to call people outside at this time.

If the nearest colony around this star zone does not need to jump, it will take at least five hours to get there.

For the government, the only ship with the ability to jump is the cruiser, but the cruiser is not so easy to dispatch.

Even if the army gets the news, it is not likely to send a cruiser to the face immediately.

Currently, only the 14th Legion in the Empire has the hyperspace channel jump system technology that Chen Ming has, so this is why Chen Ming gave the government five hours of leeway, and these five hours are enough for him to finish what he should do.

But now that he suddenly realized that he had the Queen's fungal blanket.

The situation is different.

Should he use the Queen's fungal blanket to protect everyone's safety?

Chen Ming did not think too long to get the answer.

He is not a good person, at least not a good person.

It is definitely not a wise behavior to use his trump card to save people who have nothing to do with him.

And Chen Ming remembered that Baiquan had actually hinted to him several times that his psychic power was too strong, which made many people in the empire a little uneasy.

His psychic power has the ability to control the afterglow and the mechanical race. As long as he wants and takes action, he will sooner or later be able to organize a force that can fight against the empire.

The Zerg of the Queen of Zerg is also too much in a sense.

After Chen Ming's several optimizations, the Zerg will definitely pose a great threat to the empire as long as it is given enough time to develop.

This means that if An Wuping exposes the psychic power of the Queen of Zerg, he may be treated the same as him.

Chen Ming determined his answer and did not think about protecting civilians. At most, he would protect Uncle Mao and not consider others.

"Mr. Psychic?"

The voice of the deputy director on the phone that had not been hung up pulled Chen Ming back from his flying thoughts.

"Where were we just talking about?"

"Why did you come to our Anti-Cult Bureau in the first place?"

"..."

The words in Chen Ming's mind just now could not be said directly to the outside world.

So Chen Ming made up a random excuse and said, "Because I like the Anti-Cult Bureau, that's all."

Chen Ming hung up the phone directly and stopped wasting time.

At this time, all the valuable data in the database of the underground laboratory computer room had been obtained by Chen Ming.

The metal liquid that was distributed on the other side had also reached the main control system of the laboratory. Chen Ming was able to hack into the laboratory system through a physical hacking device and bypassed all security, perfectly penetrating the entire laboratory.

Except for the area to the north of the laboratory, which is an independent area, all the control systems of this area are inside this area.

However, this area is connected to the laboratory. Now that Chen Ming has completely controlled the laboratory, it is only a very easy thing to infiltrate it.

But Chen Ming did not decide to do so because the gate of this area was closed.

All the visible gaps are filled with silent alloy isolation membranes arranged on the left diameter. If he enters rashly, something he doesn't want to see will happen.

At least An Wuping had to settle things on the space station and then deal with things on the ground on the planet.

Anyway, his laboratory database on the ground has obtained enough clues, and he no longer needs to continue investigating clues on the space station.

The investigation on the space station is just the icing on the cake, not necessary.

Instead of wasting time investigating, it would be better to resolve the dimension infection situation as soon as possible.

As for the clues that An Wuping needs to obtain.

As long as An Wuping takes action on the space station, he will kill everyone who is related to the database.

Then just add some clues that Chen Ming investigated in the ground laboratory that are related to the ground laboratory into the database and give them to An Wuping.

Pretending that An Wuping had discovered information about a laboratory on the planet, he guided him to the ground.

As long as the signal blockade of the space station is completed, no one in the laboratory will be aware of it when he comes to the ground.

I've probably figured out the plan to execute next.

Chen Ming didn't want to delay for too long.

He had concealed the news about Zuo Jing for a long time. Clones were being produced on the space station all the time. Once something went wrong on the space station, they would be completely finished.

But there is one thing that needs to be thought about before actually taking action on the space station.

Those are the civilians on the space station.

Although Chen Ming has made it clear that he will not deliberately protect those people, it does not mean that he will completely ignore them.

It's not just Chen Ming who doesn't like killing people casually, he also doesn't like people killing people casually.

It's even more because his next actions are likely to cause problems with the security system of the entire space station.

If the dimensional infection located in the center of the space station is leaked, there may be big problems.

I'm afraid there won't be a single living person left on the space station.

However, Chen Ming quickly thought of a solution, which was to rely on the special structure of the space station that is very easy to be dismantled.

Soon after Chen Ming thought through all the problems.

Deputy Manager Chang, who was sleeping inside the space station, suddenly felt a slight pain in his forehead.

He scratched a few times in a daze, grabbed a few strands of hair, shook them off, and continued to fall into a deep sleep.

The few hairs were carried by the metallic liquid and flowed to other places along the ground.

A few minutes later.

Shi Shao suddenly appeared on the edge of the outer area and entered the inner area.

He was not blocked and successfully walked into the space station, walked into a toilet, and got these hairs with hair follicles.

After using the queen's body tissue in the toilet to swallow the genes from the deputy director.

Shi Shao gradually transformed into deputy manager Chang.

After confirming in the bathroom mirror that there was nothing wrong, Chen Ming walked out of the bathroom with a new appearance.

After identifying the direction, he walked towards Deputy Manager Chang's room.

There was a guard at the door of Deputy Manager Chang's residence. When he saw Deputy Manager Chang walking towards the door, his face was full of astonishment.

"Deputy Manager Chang, aren't you..."

Chen Ming squinted at the security guard at the door with a cold face: "I don't know when I went out. Are you just doing it?"

The two guards immediately lowered their heads and apologized: "I'm sorry!"

After staring at the two guards for a while, seeing their hands and feet shaking unnaturally, Chen Ming changed his gaze and said, "Forget it."

He pressed his hand directly on the door and used his spiritual energy to control the door to open.

Of course, it was still pretending that the door was opened with a key card.

"Keep guarding."

Chen Ming turned around and confessed, closed the door, entered the bedroom and quietly got rid of Deputy Manager Chang.

Subsequently, the tentacles of the Queen of Insects proliferated in the room, and the body of Deputy Director Chang was swept into the tentacles and swallowed completely.
