About half an hour later, at a spaceship anchorage on the Brave.
This is where many small ships, such as frigates and transport ships, are docked. It is located on the top level of the Brave, covering a vast area, and can accommodate hundreds of different ships simultaneously.
Wang Zhifan ca here to participate in an ergency space exploration mission.
"Hello! Mr. Wang! I am Investigator Jessica! This mission relies on you!"
Under the broad and bright transparent skylight where outer space could be seen above, Wang Zhifan t the captain of the exploration team he was to escort this ti.
She was a very young blond Caucasian female scientist with beautiful blue eyes. Her temperant was calm and steady, not giving an impression of being just a pretty face.
"Hello! I will fully cooperate with your exploration work!"
Wang Zhifan was also participating in this kind of mission for the first ti, so he didn’t know how best to respond, and casually said sothing to get by.
He saw that the targets he needed to protect for this mission were not many, including the beautiful woman in front of him, there were a total of four scientists, two n and two won. Among the n was a middle-aged Caucasian and a young Asian, while among the won, apart from the female captain, there was a Black girl whose punk style suggested she was very knowledgeable in computer technology.
As the security captain, he also led a team of four helpers, essentially four fully ard clones. This was the maximum personnel allocation given to him from above. Any more would take up too much space on the spaceship and hinder the exploration mission.
"Since everyone is ready, let’s board the ship quickly."
After the two teams t, the two captains exchanged a few words to confirm each other’s status, and imdiately headed to a small spacecraft docked at the anchorage.
This type of spacecraft was only about the size of three trucks, designed to ensure sufficient flexibility, allowing ease during exploration missions.
"Please look here! Verify the mission number and personnel identities!"
At the final stage of boarding, an anchorage staff mber ca over with a device similar to a cara for inspection, verifying everyone’s identity, including the four clones, to prevent idle elents from sabotaging the exploration mission.
Then, the four scientists and Wang Zhifan’s five-mber security team successively boarded the exploration spacecraft, entered the cabin, and changed into spacesuits needed for outer space.
The spacecraft was equipped with a primary and a secondary pilot, but they were performing pre-flight adjustnts in the cockpit, so Wang Zhifan and the others did not disturb them.
A short while later, in the rather cramped passenger cabin, Wang Zhifan put on the complete spacesuit by following others’ actions, and found that although this special outfit looked sowhat bulky, it didn’t greatly affect his mobility. Many design details showed that this product had undergone years of iteration and was already very mature.
"Fellow explorers! The spacecraft is about to take off, please fasten your seatbelts!"
As the pilot’s reminder sounded from the overhead speaker, Wang Zhifan and the other nine people all checked the seatbelts attached to their spacesuits. It must be said that this classic design remained reliable even in this world.
Then the roar of the spacecraft engines quickly filled the air, and under the increasing and then fixed intensity of the thrust effect, all nine passengers left the gigantic mothership Brave aboard the small spacecraft, heading towards the boundless space.
"This acceleration duration... hasn’t even reached sub-light speed, right? Does this an the mission coordinates aren’t far?"
About ten minutes later, feeling the pressure on their back gradually disappearing, with the spacecraft entering a stable uniform flight state, Wang Zhifan couldn’t help but express his doubt.
Currently, the visors on their spacesuits weren’t closed, so they could easily communicate with each other without needing electronic communications.
"Yes, the mothership is currently anchored at a point very close to the mission location, we will arrive soon."
The leading Caucasian female scientist smiled and replied to Wang Zhifan, with a hint of excitent flashing in her beautiful blue eyes, showing her enthusiasm for this exploration.
"When the ti cos, please let our team lead the way."
Wang Zhifan found this woman sowhat similar to the chief he had t before, both being science fanatics, so he imdiately reminded her not to be too eager when they reached the exploration site, and not to plunge into the ruins impulsively, as that would an their security team wasn’t doing their job.
"Rest assured, I will be careful. In recent years, the Empire has lost quite a few explorers due to accidents, and I don’t want to beco one of them."
Upon hearing Wang Zhifan’s reminder, the woman nodded imdiately and replied earnestly.
"Jessica, I think you shouldn’t get your hopes up too high. It’s possible that the remains we discover belong to a missing imperial explorer, rather than an alien artifact."
The young Asian scientist spoke up, possibly feeling that their captain’s enthusiasm for exploration was too high and didn’t want her to fall into disappointnt.
"Tao is right. The last ti we went to explore a planet, the intelligence suggested alien ruins, but we discovered it was actually a campsite abandoned by a human explorer."
The punk-styled Black girl nodded in agreent, showing a not very hopeful expression on her face.
"But that exploration revealed the past of a mysterious explorer, which was quite interesting in itself, and not only alien relics have value."
