To no surprise, their weapons were confiscated before they were forced to step out of the aircraft with guns pointing at them. The scene in the front made them speechless. They were at an open site in the suburb of the city. They could see the cluster of white buildings in Dream City far away and some wisps of black smoke floating up in the sky. Over thirty black ergates were groveling on the ground, forming a row. Their eyes were compound, and ghosts alike. There were hundreds of humans pushed by the Zergs, walking in three different directions. One ergate, wearing a neat uniform and lieutenant badge, “walked” with his strong lower limbs, with two human nurses following him. The two nurses were pale and numb, both holding a simple detector and testing the foreheads of the captured before walking back to the Zerg soldier, saying something in a low voice to him. The Zerg soldier nodded, then gave some orders in the Zerg language. Other soldiers soon pushed them and divided them into three rows, instructing them to follow the team in front of them, walking in different directions. “Wait!” Rosalind said. “Why do you divide us?” The Zerg soldier turned around without answering her. “What’s going on?” Shockley grabbed one of the nurses by her clothes, “Is Dream City taken completely? Why are you helping them? Have you surrendered with no shame?” The Zerg soldier was about to rush to them when the nurse screamed with a dark face. “I am already infected. I’ll die right now if I don’t do what they tell me to.” Emerald and Rosalind were in the same direction. Rosalind looked very pale as she said in a low voice, “They put the severely infected patients in one team...” Emerald quickly understood that Rosalind, as a doctor, had analyzed the condition of everyone rapidly. “But Shockley, Paul and them...” She looked at the two marines, “They were healthy. Why can’t they be with us?” Emerald thought about Jeff Baker and understood. “They’re useful in the war, so...” Probably the Zerg had injected the disease into their bodies to control them and help with the colonization on the ground. Rosalind was taken away even though she was a doctor because she had taken off the white lab coat. A tall, healthy-looking young man with tan skin, blue eyes, and delicate features turned around and looked at the two women. He was biracial, a mix of Mongoloid and Caucasian. “I didn’t expect to meet two pretty girls here. Lady, you are not a citizen of Planet Dream, are you?” He slimed and looked at Emerald with her black hair and black eyes.But Emerald was not in the mood for a joke with him and didn’t answer. “I’m Calman Zapp. You can call me Calman.” That young man noticed their hopelessness and sighed, “Ladies, don’t give up hope yet. We’re lucky compared to the others. You should feel grateful that you are not soldiers, doctors, or scientists.” “Why do you say so? Where will they be sent to?” Rosalind pointed to the other two teams. Calman smiled ambiguously. “The seriously infected people will become Zerg’s food, and the lightly infected once will stay here and work for them until the Zergs treat them. But who knows?” He said with obvious sarcasm. They couldn’t tell whether he was sarcastic about the Zerg’s lies or the human’s surrender. “Of course, the worms will be injected into these healthy, useful soldiers, nurses, and scientists so that they can work for the Zergs.”Rosalind’s face was ashen. She covered her mouth as if she was going to vomit. Emerald also felt sick, realizing that her guess was right. She stared at Calman, “Why do you know these? Where will we be sent to?” Calman put his hand into the pocket and took out a small, gold star, “I bribed one of the Zerg officers. Money always gets its way. It’s true for all kinds of species.” He pointed at several blurry aircraft which were parking in the distance and said calmly, “Ladies, we, the slaves of the Zerg, will be sent to a remote, cold Zerg planet. The Alliance has lost the war, and it is said that the mercenaries don’t have the strength to fight back. The possibility of going to the Zerg planet to save civilians like us is even slimmer. We will never see our relatives, lovers, or friends ever again. The sad truth is we will never go back to our hometown.” Rosalind covered her face with her hand and sobbed softly. The people in front of them who overheard Colman’s words looked back with tears in their eyes. The sun was setting, smoke was everywhere, and the long row of people seemed like a dying black dragon, walking step by step to despair. Emerald followed the team, moving slowly. Colman’s bitter words were like heavy rain, drenching her whole body, hot and cold repeatedly. She hoped that Colman’s words were just nonsense, but she knew that he was right. They would take her to a strange place several planets away as a humble human slave. There was no way that Patrick or anyone else could find her in a time of war when life was so vulnerable. She would live in the lowest level of an alien society, have no freedom, unable to see her friends or lover until she died quietly like an ant. Her body would never be sent to the territory of humans, not to mention back to Earth. She clenched her fist quietly as her steps became heavier and heavier. Although some aircraft were seen leaping from human planets and Zerg planets, the spy planes reported that they were just regular troopships, which meant that the Zergs were speeding up the invasion process. No one would think that Emerald was in one of those ships or that the Zerg would transport humans to their planets to live since they were planning to destroy the entire human species. Surprisingly, the open and honest cooperation between the Alliance and the mercenary for the first time achieved such a good result. When General Harold, who worked for Taron Locke and Harrison Gates, explained the joint combat plan together, everyone applauded them. Someone raised a question. “Would it be too risky to separate the army?” Lucas answered the question lightly. “I believe in the capability of General Patrick Lewis. I believe that he will take the Zerg Planet so that the Zergs have to go back to their home and give us a chance to retake Planet Dream and Planet Peace.”
