The plunder of the heavens begins with the Spirit Cage.

As soon as Lu Qianwei took over the space station, the system inside the space station issued an alarm to him.

However, the portal will close after thirty-five hours, which is not important to him at all.

After the main control room issued permissions to the tactical terminals of the second team members,

While eliminating the remaining aliens, the soldiers also collected a large amount of supplies inside the space station.

Irina, who had arrived at the energy core, also brought him some good news.

That is, the space station has a large tank of 'Helium-3' energy available for nuclear fusion.

Bringing it back to the bunker will be enough to sustain them for several more years.

There's not much to say. The dangers have been cleared. Now it's time for the engineers and workers to scrape the ground and start dismantling everything.

The materials used in the space station are all excellent repair and modification parts.

"Commander! We've captured six humans who boarded this spaceship!"

"Bring them up!"

Listening to the excited report from the soldiers, Lu Qianwei realized that the main characters had arrived.

The crimson planet beneath the space station is a colony mining planet belonging to the Weyland Corporation.

The company doesn't treat its workers like human beings at all; they exploit them.

When the female protagonist, Ryan Carradine, had accumulated enough working hours and wanted to apply to leave, the company maliciously delayed her departure.

The staff even extended the working hours to five years right in front of her.

Not only did they not terminate the contract, they also attempted to transfer her from the Ministry of Agriculture to the mines.

There's no reason not to take advantage of cheap labor.

However, due to this oppressive policy, human colonies suffered from high temperatures and diseases, and the workers were extremely weak.

In order to create a cheaper workforce, Weyland Corporation conducted experiments on the alien's genes directly inside the space station.

They created an 'artificial black liquid' that can modify human genes, commonly known as Z01 substance, also called 'Prometheus's Fire'.

They believe this is a gift from God to humankind for evolution.

Unfortunately, the alien awakened midway and wiped out most of the people on the space station.

When the main characters arrived, all of them, except for Rain, were injured.

A short while later, Lu Qianwei met the six people.

Faced with so many burly men, they all honestly recounted the events to Lu Qianwei, filling in the gaps in his long-forgotten memories.

The thing is that Ryan's friend Taylor has had enough of being exploited by the Weyland Corporation.

At the same time, she took a liking to Andy, the synthetic human her father left her.

Only cyborgs can control the spaceship and access the space station.

In order to start a new life on the planet 'Iva', Raine agreed to let the four of them come to the space station together to find hibernation pods.

The planet Iva is too far away, and the hibernation pods will allow them to spend several years there.

After listening to the general descriptions from the group, Lu Qianwei removed his mask, revealing a warm smile.

He declared righteously, "Weyland Corporation has violated the Labor Law!"

"This is the exploitation of free people!"

"Come on, I'll take you to get justice!"

Chapter 5 FBI open the door!!

The Zetapure system contains star systems remarkably similar to our solar system.

However, the red planet, which was colonized and mined by the Weyland Corporation, was shrouded in thick clouds all day long.

The area is perpetually shrouded in darkness, experiences frequent torrential rains, and is filled with dense, polluted air, preventing any plants from ever growing.

There is only a giant reactor that roars all day long, and the dense factories that surround it.

In stark contrast to this hellish scene on the surface is a high-rise building surrounding the dense factories.

The thick bulletproof glass shielded the windows from the relentless acid rain and noise outside.

On the top floor of the building, behind an expensive mahogany table, sat Governor Jackson, who was also the highest-ranking representative of the Weyland Company in the area.

He looked at the red marker on the central holographic star map, and a sense of unease crept into his heart.

"Two thousand one hundred and thirty-seven people!"

Jackson slammed his hand down and glared angrily at Carl Vincent, the HR manager standing in front of him.

“Carl, a few years ago you said that a group of people would arrive at the Jackson colony.”

Now tell me, with this small number of people, when will we be able to mine all the palladium and rhodium veins on this planet?

Do you expect me to request another batch of expensive cyborgs from the company?

Damn!

At this rate of progress, we'll never be able to leave this polluted planet in our lifetime!

The palladium-rhodium vein he mentioned is a high-purity metal found deep within the planet's crust.

These rare metal deposits, hidden deep within extreme geological conditions, are the core raw materials for manufacturing advanced alloys.

Due to its excellent high-temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, and superior energy conduction efficiency, this alloy has become an indispensable strategic material for building interstellar spacecraft and high-energy particle weapon energy conduits, and is extremely valuable in the interstellar market.

Wieland Corporation was attracted by its irreplaceable strategic value and huge profits.

That's why they spared no expense to establish a colony on this harsh planet.

However, in such a harsh environment, it's difficult to recruit anyone.

"Your Excellency, something unexpected has happened..." Karl wiped the sweat from his face.

He explained in a low voice, "The immigrant fleet's engines had a problem, and they only realized their course had deviated after waking up from their hibernation pods..."

Fearing that Jackson would be angry and continue to take his anger out on him, Carl flattered him, as if seeking credit: "I have already extended the workers' working hours back to five years."

"Add five more years!" Jackson abruptly interrupted him, his obese body leaping from his seat. "Back then, wasn't it you who suggested using 'working hours for freedom' to motivate their work enthusiasm!"

Giving them a two-day weekend is already an immense blessing!

"Now you've made it even longer! What about the company's reputation?!"

"Is Wieland's grand vision to be completed slowly and painstakingly by working on these slag heaps?"

Karl broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly nodded and bowed: "Yes, yes, the governor is right. I didn't think things through back then."

But please rest assured, those people have been transferred from their original positions to the 'Abyss' mining area and the 'Furnace' refinery.

"We'll make sure no one knows whether they left the planet for Ivaga."

Jackson's gloomy expression softened slightly.

He sat back down, his fingers tapping unconsciously on the table: "There are still too few people."

The 'Abyss' mining area requires a large workforce to operate machinery to penetrate deep into the mine, as that is where palladium and rhodium metals are most abundant.

Relying solely on cyborgs for labor is too costly.

Jackson spoke leisurely, and Carl, already understanding, stepped forward, "Hehe, Your Excellency the Governor."

Your previous actions have already gotten the military to turn a blind eye and agree to let us transfer a group of 'special laborers'.

I've already arranged for backup; they're all death row inmates convicted of serious crimes.

“Hmm,” Jackson nodded in satisfaction. “Weyland’s interests need some necessary sacrifices to accelerate their realization.”

"Your Excellency is wise!" Karl said with a broad smile.

"boom--!"

Just then, the office door was suddenly kicked open.

A manager in a suit rushed in in a panic, panting, "Your Excellency, the Governor!"

The factory and shipyard have been... taken over by an armed force!

"What?!" Jackson could hardly believe his ears.

Karl grabbed the other man's collar and glared at him angrily, saying, "How could there be any other forces on this planet besides our industrial area?!"

Say it again!

"Did those lowly people riot?"

The manager shook his head. "No, it's not!"

They came from outer space in our cargo ships!

"Those people took control of the shipyard and the giant reactor as soon as they arrived."

They're saying we violated labor laws!

"How did our cargo ship end up in their hands?" Jackson frowned.

"According to the itinerary, the boat was taken away by a woman named Navarro a few hours earlier."

The records show she has some hacking skills and is a loader/unloader, so there were no alarms when she left the jurisdiction.

"Useless! Those people are not meticulous at all!" Karl cursed as he released the manager's collar.

He looked at Jackson and said, "Your Excellency, shall we go and check on the situation now?"

In his view, no matter how big a cargo spaceship is, how many people can it carry?

They believe their cyborg warriors and security personnel will soon be able to subdue those people.

Jackson thought the same way; no matter how strong they were, could they possibly be more powerful than the fearless cyborgs?

Perfect timing! A group of outsiders have arrived. We can use force to make an example of them and show it to those resentful commoners.

"Let's go see what's going on?"

"No need!"
