I have a space station

"Old Yan, does it seem strange to you what Xiao Chen said at the end?" Zongzhen Yue muttered softly.

"No need to guess. We'll know what's going on when we get back and ask," Yan Zhengping replied indifferently.

Zongzhen Yue nodded and said nothing more. He leaned back in his chair and began to close his eyes to rest.

Ten hours later, they arrived at Blue Star.

The reason it took so long was that the attack ship was not running at full speed.

"Commander, a planetary-class attack ship has appeared in Blue Star's orbit," a staff member reported.

"One ship?" Old Qin was a little puzzled.

He couldn't contact Mars at the moment, and the specific situation was completely unclear.

Perhaps this planetary-class attack ship could bring back some intelligence.

The reason he could monitor Blue Star's orbit now was that he had 240 observation stations wrapped in spatial lenses in space.

These observation stations existed within spatial bubbles and were almost impossible to detect.

"Send them a message to verify their identity," Old Qin ordered.

"Yes!"

"This is Blue Star Federation Space Observation Station. Please reply upon receipt. Over."

"This is Blue Star Federation Planetary-class Attack Ship No. 36, requesting to enter Blue Star synchronous orbit for docking. Over."

"Permission to dock, over."

After the identity verification was confirmed, the attack ship successfully docked.

Subsequently, Yan Zhengping had a conversation with Old Qin.

"Zhengping, weren't you captured?" Old Qin asked.

Before the signal was interrupted, this attack ship carrying civilians for evacuation had already been captured by Dongfang Chen. So, they should have been imprisoned on Mars and couldn't possibly return.

"Old Qin, Dongfang Chen let us go back," Yan Zhengping replied.

"Dongfang Chen, are you referring to that imposter?"

"...What imposter?" Yan Zhengping hadn't heard of it.

"Let's do this. You guys come back first. Any questions can be discussed upon your return," Old Qin didn't directly answer them.

These kinds of questions are prone to problems when discussed over the air.

Two hours later, the transport ship returned all the soldiers to the Mosang Ark base.

Old Qin personally went to the airfield to greet them.

There was no other way. The base's communication system was out of order, and he had to run errands himself.

Troublesome, but he could only endure it.

Inside a military office.

"Old Qin!" Yan Zhengping and Zongzhen Yue simultaneously gave a military salute.

"Old Qin, you said earlier that Dongfang Chen was an imposter. What exactly is going on?" Yan Zhengping couldn't wait to ask his question.

"It's like this. The real Dongfang Chen was captured by the Long Country people six years ago. What we're seeing now is just a fake," Old Qin explained.

"???" Yan Zhengping's mind crashed.

Zongzhen Yue was even more confused by what was said.

"I'm very certain about this, and he himself admitted it," Old Qin said.

Now, the two of them finally understood where Dongfang Chen's remarks seemed strange.

Now, it was truly difficult to decide whether or not to use these metal spheres they brought back.

"Should we tell Old Qin?" Yan Zhengping frowned, feeling overwhelmed.

"Old Qin, now that the fake Dongfang Chen has gained a certain foothold on Mars, how should we respond?" Zongzhen Yue changed the subject.

He felt that they needed to understand the situation before deciding whether or not to confess.

Only by understanding whether Old Qin had obtained the highest control authority of the space station could they figure out which one was the problem.

"There's no way for the time being. After the fake Dongfang Chen escaped, all of our weapons, equipment, and warships have lost control."

"Furthermore, since Dongfang Chen has the ability to capture hundreds of frigates in one go, his technical strength should not be underestimated."

"In the short term, we are not his opponent."

What Old Qin said was the truth, but within this truth, a key piece of information was revealed:

He didn't have control.

Old Qin's words directly misled them all.

Therefore, they made a wrong judgment:

Dongfang Chen was lying.

If he was lying, then these metal spheres he gave them must have problems.

"Is there any way to regain control?" Yan Zhengping asked.

"No. The core control unit has been destroyed by the fake Dongfang Chen, and the interface command cannot be retrieved."

"Without the interface command, these devices and warships are equivalent to scrap," Old Qin shook his head.

"Interface command?" Yan Zhengping and Zongzhen Yue exchanged glances.

The golden metal spheres that Dongfang Chen gave them were the interface command.

Zongzhen Yue nodded slightly, meaning to tell Yan Zhengping that he thought the matter of the golden metal spheres could be discussed.

Yan Zhengping pondered for a moment and also thought it could be discussed.

Putting aside whether or not to deploy them, they could at least be taken out for research.

The situation on Blue Star was tense. If this matter wasn't resolved quickly and the enemy launched an attack, they wouldn't even have a chance to respond.
