Dimensional Codex System I M Really Not A Cultist
/ Dimensional Codex System: I'm really not a cultist! Chapter 151
Chapter 151: Chapter 150: Both the Fish and the Bear's Paw are Mine!
“I really didn't expect to return to Earth this way.”
Gazing at the icy landscape before him, Fang Zheng couldn't help feeling sentimental.
He wasn't on the hunting planet of Ironblood that he had been to before, but had instead returned to Earth. Of course, this Earth wasn't the one Fang Zheng had known before his rebirth, but the Earth within the Ironblood World.
By the way, for convenience's sake, Fang Zheng had given Ironblood's hunting planet a new name–Char.
After all, it wouldn't be long before it became the homeworld of the Zerg in this world.
The reason Fang Zheng had come to this world's Earth was certainly not to reminisce about the past. The fact was, after Nymph did some digging into the Ironblood Base's files, she discovered that all the Alien Eggs originated from the same Alien Empress, who happened to be on Earth.
So Fang Zheng immediately knew where his adversary was.
Earth, Antarctica.
To be precise, it was the pyramid beneath Antarctica.
To be even more precise… “Alien vs. Iron Blood Warrior” was about to begin!
The plot of this movie is actually quite simple. The Ironblood Warriors came to Earth to take a test, deliberately activating the pyramid to lure humans. Sure enough, some fell for the bait–led by the CEO of Verland Industries, a team ventured deep into Antarctica to explore the ancient ruins.
Then… they became hosts for the Aliens.

Of course, like many Hollywood films, the Ironblood Warriors messed up in the end. They didn't expect the humans to take their weapons, leaving them to fight the Aliens unarmed, which resulted in heavy casualties. Only one of the three Ironblood Warriors survived, and even he was killed by the Alien Queen in the end. Before his death, he managed to nuke the pyramid, contributing his own bit to the Hollywood movie industry.
To be fair, Fang Zheng thought that “Alien vs. Iron Blood Warrior” was among the best in the “XX vs. XX” series he had seen. Although some were dissatisfied with the second installment, Fang Zheng felt it was also quite good. Not only did it bridge the plot of “Alien,” but the entire scene also looked very science fiction, without a hint of shoddy craftsmanship. Of course, the drawback of the second film was that the scenes were too dark, making the eyes tired after watching for a while…
Okay, that's not the point.
“So, I'll go check it out, you stay on the spaceship. Notify me immediately if you detect a signal from the Ironblood guys.”
“Yes, Master.”
Upon receiving Fang Zheng's order, Nymph nodded. The little one could now be considered Fang Zheng's all-around tech. Without her, Fang Zheng wouldn't have been able to drive the Ironblood spaceship all the way to Earth. Considering the situation inside the pyramid, Fang Zheng had no intention of taking Nymph on this risky venture. After all, the Ironblood network itself was monitoring the pyramid, and with Nymph already having hacked into the Ironblood network, having her stay on the spaceship to oversee everything was more advantageous for Fang Zheng.
As for contact, Fang Zheng had lost the ability to communicate with Nymph through the chain after it was cut. But this didn't bother Fang Zheng. Within the Prophecy System of spells, there was a spell called “Soul Connection,” which could be permanently attached to any willing creature, allowing both sides to communicate and exchange thoughts regardless of distance. This meant that even if Nymph stayed on Char, she could stay in touch with Fang Zheng on Earth.
To establish this spell permanently, one needed to master Level Five Prophecy spells, so Fang Zheng had placed a permanent “Soul Connection” on Nymph. In fact, there is an advanced version of this spell, and if Fang Zheng mastered Level Six Prophecy spells, then he could learn “Otherworldly Mind Link.” By then, not only could they communicate across distances, but they could also talk freely across different realms.
This goes to show that an Archmage really can do whatever he wants.
Besides this, another reason why Fang Zheng left Nymph on the spaceship was that he remembered at the end of the first movie, a massive Ironblood Mother Ship would come to Earth to pick up the victor. This gave Fang Zheng a new idea. He wanted the Alien Queen, and he had no intention of letting go of this Ironblood Mother Ship–hadn't Kerrigan once dealt with a Star Spirit Warship using a parasite? Surely he couldn't be worse than Kerrigan.
But before that… he still needed to deal with the Alien Queen first!
“Are you ready, Lulana?”
“Of course, Master.”
As Fang Zheng spoke, an Insect Matriarch emerged from behind him, similar in appearance to Mirune but with several more tentacles trailing behind her. This was Mirune's subordinate specializing in gene modification, whom Fang Zheng had named Lulana; she played a role in Fang Zheng's Swarm similar to Abathur's. However, unlike Abathur, Lunala was even more adept at optimizing and modifying the Swarm's genes.
If Abathur was a mad scientist who liked to integrate the strengths of various biological genes into one and then recombine them, then Lulana was more like an elegant artist. She preferred to “perfectly” showcase the characteristics and charm of the materials, rather than completely assimilating them.
To put it simply, it was the difference between an all-around development and specialized focus.
Of course, if one were to talk about the top gene modifier in Fang Zheng's Swarm, it would still be Mirune. However, unfortunately, Mirune was responsible for Char Planet and had no time for tourism on Earth; thus, she recommended her assistant Lulana. For Fang Zheng, it wasn't necessary to be as meticulous as during the Time Gene modification when it came to only modifying and recombining the Alien Queen.
“It's almost time.”
With the help of Psionic power, Fang Zheng “saw” that the human exploration team lured here by the Ironblood had entered the Pyramid. This meant that the storyline of “Alien vs. Iron Blood Warrior” was about to begin. He raised his hand and snapped his fingers. Immediately, the scene in front of Fang Zheng flashed, and the next moment, the icy wasteland was replaced by a pitch-black and dim hall, with the swirling blizzard nowhere in sight.
This was the Teleportation Spell that Fang Zheng had learned after studying Spellcraft System up to Level Five. Unlike the pseudo-time pause Teleportation from before, this Teleportation Spell was truly unrestricted by space, capable of transporting Fang Zheng and any creatures he brought along to any location within eight hundred kilometers, as long as he was familiar with the destination. Using Psionic power, it was natural for Fang Zheng to have a clear understanding of this place.
Indeed, your Archmage can do whatever he wants, JGP.
“This is the place.”
Looking at the spacious hall in front of him and the Ironblood Warrior statues placed on both sides, Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows. At this moment, the massive Alien Queen had been awakened and under the Pyramid's “electrocution,” began laying eggs. Alien Eggs appeared one after another from the ovipositor and were then transported by a conveyor belt into the tunnel at the end of the hall.
It was four to five meters long, with a massive ovipositor on its abdomen. From a distance, it somewhat resembled a Queen Ant in an ant nest. The Alien Queen at this moment was in great pain and anger, but no matter how much it struggled, it couldn't escape the restraints imposed by the Ironbloods.
However, for Fang Zheng, this was a good thing.
“I leave it to you, Lulana.”
“Yes, Master.”
Hearing Fang Zheng's command, Lulana stepped forward slowly, approaching the Alien Queen. Then she straightened up as several tentacles spread out from behind her like the framework of wings, and with a “pffft” sound, those tentacles plunged deep into the body of the Alien Queen.
This also marked the official moment when the Alien joined the Swarm.
