Chapter 2168 The Plan
In the past couple of days, various pieces of information regarding OmniTech Company have gradually been collected.
It was different from what Fang Heng had initially thought.
Ji Haiting, in fact, didn't have much conflict with the Federation.
He inherited the family business from a young age and later joined the board of directors. Afterwards, he shifted the company's focus to high-tech research and development, gradually expanding the company.
Following this, OmniTech Company faced covert infiltration by the Federation.
Despite pressure from both the family and federal departments, as well as internal corporate challenges, Ji Haiting decided to accept the Federation's investment and supervision, continuing to contribute to the development of high-tier projects for the Federation.
Everyone in the outside world knew that the OmniTech Company was a puppet supported by the Federation.
However, after reading a lot of information, Mo Jiawei felt that the relationship between Ji Haiting and the Federation was not as good as it seemed to be.
Perhaps Ji Haiting was the breakthrough point.
In short, he would give it a try.
As Fang Heng swiftly departed, prisms began to slowly float up from the wreckage of the exploded abandoned factory.
The spawn warriors glanced at each other, and a faint blue spatial transmission light began to shimmer around them.
...
Meanwhile, at the Central Command Post of the Federation.
"Fang Heng!"
As they watched Fang Heng once again break through their joint pursuit with the spawns, there was a moment of silence among the Federation's high-ranking officials.
First, it was the tree spirit race, and now, out of nowhere, Fang Heng appeared.
Once again, they found themselves relying on the strength of the spawns.
Ji Haiting stood behind the others, observing quietly.
Indeed, Fang Heng's strength is quite remarkable.
But how long could he last alone?
As the spawns' tracking level gradually increased, the time it took Fang Heng to get rid of the pursuers became longer and longer.
While he was thinking, an assistant walked over and whispered into Ji Haiting's ear, "Director, your personal magnetic card is responding. The coordinates have been located."
Ji Haiting's heart skipped a beat.
He had only given his personal magnetic card to five individuals.
And now, the only one who could contact him...
Was Fang Heng!
Could it be that he had finally come to his senses?
"Prepare for transition immediately. I'll go there myself."
"Yes, sir."
....
In a corner of the city, Fang Heng sat alone on a chair outside a retro-style coffee shop, holding a cup of hot coffee in his hands.
Just moments ago, he had used his perception to trigger the magnetic card he received from Ji Haiting.
The spawns were still chasing after him, shouting for blood.
It was irritating.
In reality, he wasn't exactly at a dead end.
He could simply hand over the Niam alloy to the tree spirit race and follow their path to safety.
But Fang Heng felt uneasy about it.
And it didn't feel stable.
Crack, crack...
Hearing the sound, Fang Heng looked up at the corner of the street not far away.
Several spatial transmission ripples appeared at the corner of the street.
Ji Haiting and his five psychic guards walked out of the transition.
"Fang Heng, long time no see."
Like two old friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time, Ji Haiting waved his hand and walked toward Fang Heng.
Ji Haiting's guards tacitly guarded the coffee shop and began to disperse unrelated people.
"Have you made a decision? To be honest, I'm looking forward to it."
"Indeed, I've considered it and believe that we can cooperate, but only between you and me, privately."
"Great!"
Ji Haiting's eyes sparkled with a hint of elite aura as he moved a chair aside and sat across from Fang Heng.
"Before you agree, let me finish speaking," Ji Haiting said, gesturing for Fang Heng to wait.
"There's something I need to clarify upfront: I have no knowledge whatsoever about this so-called Ouroboros."
"You don't know?"
Ji Haiting was obviously surprised.
"It's a long story. Part of my previous memories have been lost, so I'm not sure if Ouroboros exists in my body. In addition, the creatures I control belong to a special ability. As a clone of mine, they have also fused with part of my power."
Ji Haiting listened to Fang Heng and fell into deep thought.
After a while, Ji Haiting raised his head and said, "I see. It doesn't matter. Even without Ouroboros, I'm still curious about your power. We can cooperate in some future research. In exchange, I'll give you all the information I've obtained from the spawns unconditionally."
Fang Heng nodded as he listened.
Setting aside whether Ji Haiting was trying to deceive him, just hearing him speak made Fang Heng feel more at ease compared to dealing with the tree spirit race.
Ji Haiting paused for a moment, then continued, "Besides that, there's also the matter of the tree spirit race..."
"I don't have much connection with the tree spirit race. I just happened to encounter some things before and temporarily cooperated with them. The cooperation wasn't as pleasant as it may seem."
"That's even better. I know you're different from those fools in the Tree Whisperers Alliance. With your abilities and my resources, whether it's Ouroboros, the tree spirit race, or the spawns..."
Ji Haiting seemed to have already envisioned a bright future for their cooperation. He lightly clenched his fist and continued, "But those are matters for later. Right now, we have an urgent trouble to deal with."
"The spawns?"
"Exactly. Even if you know nothing about Ouroboros, the spawns won't stop hunting you."
Fang Heng asked curiously, "Alright but why are the spawns hunting me down? Is it purely because of Ouroboros?"
"That's enough. Maybe you don't know that much about the spawns."
Ji Haiting gestured for his subordinate to order a cup of coffee.
"About a hundred years ago, spawns entered our world. They claimed to be a race from a higher stage of evolution. They established an alliance organization called the Star Alliance and invited us to join the Star Alliance."
"The Star Alliance was established for only one purpose, to resist natural disasters." Ji Haiting looked at Fang Heng and continued, "The natural disaster refers to Ouroboros."
Fang Heng frowned as he listened.
What did he mean?
From the meaning of his words, did it mean that the spawns established an alliance in units of galaxies just to deal with him?
There's no need for that, right?
"The spawns promised that we would receive many benefits after joining the Star Alliance, such as the sharing of high-tier technological information within the spawns, the protection of the spawns, and so on. The fact that human technology has been able to undergo a qualitative change in a short hundred years is inseparable from the help of the spawns."
"Other than that, there is another extremely important point..."
Ji Haiting paused for a moment and looked at Fang Heng, "To deal with the tree spirits."
Fang Heng's pupils contracted suddenly.
From the sound of it, the tree spirit race and the spawns weren't on good terms either?
"Perhaps you've heard, the tree spirit race once ruled this world. In fact, that statement isn't exaggerated in the slightest."
"Even after the calamity that befell the tree spirit race, where the passages between the Inner World and the Outer World vanished and over 99% of the tree spirits vanished into the Inner World, the remaining less than 1% still pose a significant threat to our human existence."
