Chapter 1144: (2/2)

As such, Z0-11 was willing to go all out, even if it meant surrendering the Core of Life to Jiang Fei to gain his cooperation. All it wanted to do was speed things up, to finish constructing the ship and get the f*ck away from Earth, away from the threats of humanity and the other Unknowns.

Of course, one could not predict what they would do when the ship was finished. Z0-11 might leave Earth as soon as the ship was ready to fly, or perhaps find and hunt down all the other Unknowns that were hostile to their faction. They might even do something else… something unpleasant to humanity.

But that was not important right now, at least not to Jiang Fei. He had a plan. Of which was the reason why Jiang Fei was insisting on knowing about the progress of the ship and he himself being present when the ship was completed. Once the second Braveheart is completed, Jiang Fei would prioritize unsealing 0541, and with its help, take back the ship.

Jiang Fei had long seen the ship as his own asset. He would never agree to let Z0-11 use it against humanity, much less to start the ship up and fly!

“Is it alright if I head up to take a look?” Jiang Fei asked.

“Sure!” Straz nodded happily. He did something with his hands and a long bridge extended out beneath their feet, connecting the platform to the entrance of the ship.

“Please,” said Straz as he bent over and gestured politely.

“Thank you,” Jiang Fei nonchalantly replied and sped away toward the ship.

On the bridge, Jiang Fei had prepared himself to see a familiar scene, yet what he saw was something different. Ignore the fact that the Unknowns had made a few adjustments of themselves, there were many icons and lights there that he had never seen before.

When Jiang Fei first became the acting Captain of Braveheart, 0541 had explained the basic controls of the ship to him. Although he was not as proficient as a real captain, he was still able to understand the meaning behind the flashing lights and icons.

“The main propulsion system is fixed. The hull of the ship is now 37% completed. The Energy Barrier system is still absent… All offensive weaponry are missing…”

Jiang Fei glanced through the board and muttered to himself as he studied each icon. At the end of it, Jiang Fei locked his gaze at the Information and Data Center.

“Looks like they are only at phase one,” said Jiang Fei to himself. From there he knew, if he wanted to unseal 0541, he needed to somehow gain control of the ship and take the position as its captain.

Just as Jiang Fei was busy analyzing the Data Center, Straz’s eyes glowed with a faint blue hue. The light in his eyes faded just as fast as it appeared but a beam of energy was fired.

“What are you doing?” Ariel asked before she encased Jiang Fei in a protective barrier.

The second when the barrier was erected, the ring in Jiang Fei’s finger released a tiny amount of energy. However, due to the barrier, the energy containing information that was being fired was bounced back in.

“I knew something was wrong!” Ariel gasped. 0542’s micro movements might be invisible to Jiang Fei but it could not escape Ariel who was hypersensitive to anything electromagnetic. It could be said that she was the ultimate ruler of one of the four fundamental forces of the universe, the Electromagnetic force.
