Space Odyssey from Abandoned Mining Space Station

The equipment here wasn’t damaged, and Chen Ming easily retrieved the monitoring data.

Immediately after, he found the footage of the exact moment the dimensional infection fully erupted.

Just a few hours ago, some researchers were visually observing the condition of the aberrant stomach near the still intact giant cage.

It looked normal and routine, as if observing this stomach was part of their daily work.

However, the situation quickly changed.

A Zuo Jing member, wearing a janitor’s uniform, shouted ”God, unite” as he rushed near the cage and self-detonated with a bomb from who knows where.

The violent shockwave swept through the entire area.

Though a few researchers around were injured, none were killed.

But this explosion did damage the outermost layer of Spiritual Energy Fluctuation containment material and caused the molten Silent Alloy inside to flow out.

Then, that was the end.

Without the dual protection of the Silent Alloy and containment material, no matter how hard the innermost Ice Steel was, it couldn’t block the Spiritual Energy Fluctuations.

In an instant, all the researchers’ stomachs in the laboratory came to unprecedented life.

Forming the scene Chen Ming saw when he arrived.

Upon seeing this act of Zuo Jing, Chen Ming was not as confused as he usually was about why Zuo Jing didn’t set up isolation layers inside the Space Station.

He actually understood Zuo Jing quite well.

Because Chen Ming knew the rhetoric from Zuo Jing’s upper echelons to the lower echelons was about creating a false god.

Even in recent promotions, they linked this god with the existence from the other dimension causing dimensional infection.

Chen Ming was certain that Zuo Jing’s leadership genuinely wanted to research dimensional infection and see it as a strategic weapon to threaten the Empire.

Meanwhile, they were also researching the Spirit Beast plan as a safeguard for themselves.

But the lower echelons didn’t hear this.

The lower echelons of Zuo Jing only heard the upper ones saying this was a part of the god, and they believed it, took it to heart; this deformed stomach in their eyes was part of the god.

If there’s a chance to unite with the legendary god, it’s clear what a frenzied cultist would do.

It’s just that Chen Ming didn’t understand how he saw a deformed stomach as a god.

Although when Chen Ming recalled carefully, he found that while this stomach was deformed and hideous, full of revolting flesh, from a biological standpoint, it indeed displayed a unique beauty of a human organ’s function.

The last deformed heart was similar; though deformed and having various proliferative flesh, the pulsating cardiac tissue indeed had a beauty of the vitality of a life power source.

This beauty was so unique, ordinary people absolutely couldn’t appreciate it, as they’d die from a glance.

But Chen Ming, having experienced much, could indeed appreciate it a bit.

However, this beauty had nothing to do with Zuo Jing’s cult god, and Chen Ming still couldn’t understand how a Zuo Jing could take a stomach as a god.

Whatever, it’s not important.

Knowing what a madman thinks just makes them a madman.

Chen Ming deleted most of the footage about him from the surveillance video, leaving only some that could be released.

Afterwards, he left the surveillance room and found the experiment center’s database.

It stored files related to dimensional infection experiments.

Chen Ming couldn’t really understand these files, which were filled with specialized terms requiring systematic study undoubtedly.

Making Chen Ming hard not to suspect who exactly was backing Zuo Jing in their cloning experiments.

But of course, this wasn’t something Chen Ming needed to worry about.

It was better left for the Empire, the government, and the military to fret over.

However, there was another file he understood, which also resolved one of his doubts.

The Space Station’s transformation plan file.

Within the Space Station’s isolation layer, the structure of the experiment center wasn’t originally like this; it was only recently transformed.

According to the file content, a Zuo Jing leader directly connected to this Space Station requested the removal of many things for the Space Station to facilitate subsequent experiments.
