With the Nine Great Tianlings' election drawing to a close, Qi Xiaomin looked at the livestream, where the commentators were still giving their impassioned analysis, and simply logged off.
With a flicker, he arrived on the surface of Moon Star.
Yi Tianzhi walked freely through the vacuum, completely unaffected. Looking at Qi Xiaomin, he smiled faintly. "Your Excellency The Controller, this spacecraft has been fully adjusted. It cannot achieve light-speed travel, nor does it possess spatial folding jump capabilities, but it can still reach sublight speeds. The trip to the Shatter Star Belt will take only a few hours. May your journey go smoothly."
Qi Xiaomin returned the salute before entering the spacecraft.
This operation consisted of three stages. The first was reaching the Shatter Star Belt, which was relatively the easiest. The second was finding the person and bringing him back. Although Liu Xiaoxiao had roughly sketched the target's appearance using divination, locating him would still take some time. Fortunately, the life detection system Yi Tianzhi had installed on the spacecraft was exceptionally advanced, with a detection range of tens of thousands of light-seconds. It was designed specifically for such uninhabited regions. Circling the inner ring of the Shatter Star Belt should take only about a day. If they could not find him there, they would have to search the outer ring, which might take far more than twice as long.
As for the final stage, it was naturally the return trip. Returning alone would be the simplest option. He would set up relay Teleportation Arrays on planets along the route, but spacecraft were not cheap, and if possible, he still wanted to fly it back himself.
Qi Xiaomin did not know much about piloting spacecraft, but fortunately, such high-tech products had intelligent controls capable of handling most situations.
