Slander! Who Says Adventurers Are Reckless!

Shining Moon Type Battleship.

Qingyang fiddled with the card, his gaze filled with worry.

He had just looked at the blueprints. Why did the Shining Moon Type Battleship require so many materials?

Starship blueprints weren't blueprints in the ordinary sense; they were extremely precious templates.

They could generate the data core of a starship, and all that was needed was to invest materials to create a starship within days.

Each blueprint had a usage limit of only 100 times, with a value equivalent to 25 finished ships.

The Starship Company's main business was these blueprint templates.

They didn't require the expenditure of resources; manufacturing only needed relevant technology and related auxiliary commanders.

"The cost of materials to gather enough for one ship could buy six decent T8 Assault Ships and three T8 Cruisers."

It was difficult to make a decision.

In the distance, the bright light of the Star Gate snapped Qingyang back to attention.

Pushing his worries aside, Qingyang stared in amazement at the Star Port, hundreds of kilometers in diameter, an indescribable excitement surging within him.

In his past life on Earth, he could only watch movies. In this life, he had stayed on one planet or its surroundings for eighteen years.

Seeing such a massive technological creation with his own eyes for the first time, Qingyang couldn't help but be excited.

As the Shining Moon Type Battleship gradually approached the Star Gate, its striking appearance immediately drew considerable attention.

In the Matrix Security Zone, a duty officer monitoring the surroundings nudged his colleague.

"Hey, look quickly, a Shining Moon Type Battleship!"

His colleague quickly looked up, his tone excited, "It really is! This small place has such a high-class starship?!"

"Tsk tsk, look at those curves. Take a screenshot."

The young girl beside the young man gazed at the Shining Moon Type Battleship sailing straight into the Star Port, her eyes lighting up as well.

Beautiful things always attracted girls, even starships that represented warfare!

"Wow, Shining Moon Type. Brother, not many people in our school's Commander Department have one, right?"

The young man also looked at the platinum warship, "Mm, only forty-six people have this class of ship."

Forty-six out of tens of thousands of people.

After all, powerful nations wouldn't engage in losing business; comprehensive ability determined the resources obtained.

In the Great Cosmic Era, which influential figures didn't have numerous children? They would naturally select the best to nurture.

The young girl said enviously, "The Shining Moon Type can be said to be the most beautiful battleship among the top-tier models. The interior fittings are also beautiful."

Unfortunately, it wasn't a commander who couldn't control a starship.

Regular ships imitating its appearance lacked the temperament and charm of a starship.

"Huh? It's heading towards our docking platform?" This time, the young man was also a little surprised.

The young girl's eyes immediately lit up, "Really!"

The surrounding team members and research teams also stirred.

"Holy crap, for real? Is a random boss this rich?"

"This isn't just about being rich. T8 requires a talent of at least purple-gold. A commander's purple-gold talent is far superior to our individual epic-level talents."

"Looks like we won't have to live in the cramped iron block dormitories like those in the regular assault ships."

"Didn't you see earlier? Those teams even had a team of high-level chefs, hehe."

The massive hull, over three thousand meters long, docked at the platform with a lightness that belied its size.

Hundreds of tractor beams simultaneously emerged, drawing mechanical equipment and supplies into the cargo hold.

At the same time, several hover platforms flew out from the ship.

The people below looked at the young man on the hover platform, astonishment in their hearts.

He actually came down personally to greet them?

Commanders would not leave their starships unless absolutely necessary, except when arriving at an absolutely safe location.

It also meant they valued something.

"Brother, it seems this commander isn't like those arrogant guys at school."

The young man nodded; getting along with him from now on would be much more comfortable.

Qingyang looked at the hundreds of crew members, spread his arms to meet their gazes, and said, "Welcome to the Eternal Truth Fleet!"

Huh?

So arrogant?

The young man and the young girl were stunned simultaneously. If this commander didn't have any commensurate achievements, their reputation would be ruined later.

"Hello, Commander. I am the captain of the Fire Edge Squad, Guxing. This is the vice-captain, Guxue."

The young man stepped forward, revealing a smile as he introduced himself.

Qingyang immediately looked towards the young man. Is this the Supernatural Ancient Martial Arts team with such high talent?

'Star of Truth, scan.'

[Guxing (Tier 3 Peak)]
[Talent 1: Yin Yang Guiyuan (Ancient Martial Arts)]
[Talent 2: Tide of Fortune (Special)]
[Combat Power: Tier 4 Mid]
[Likes: Adventure, Combat, Card Games]
[Evaluation: Excellent disposition, no evil tendencies]

Torrent of Fortune? It seems there really is such a thing as fortune. Combat power is Tier 4 Mid, and the tier difference is this large?

For this kind of prodigy, the combat power span should be at least two major realms higher.

"You like playing cards??" Qingyang's face was full of question marks. He then looked towards the young woman beside him.

[Guxue (Tier 3 High)]
[Talent: Sound of All Things (Supernatural)]
[Combat Power: Tier 4 Early]
[Likes: Adventure, Music, Spicy Food]
[Evaluation: Excellent, no evil tendencies]

A support supernatural ability related to music?

His gaze shifted. The rest of the team members also basically had strong talents, with evaluations all above good.

The weakest had a combat power of Tier 3 Mid, enough for one person to confront a small-scale ground army.

After quickly assessing the situation within a few seconds, Qingyang extended his hand. "Just call me Qingyang. Brother, your aura is very strong."

Guxing's expression changed slightly. He could sense my aura even with Yin Yang concealment?

Could this person's individual strength be above mine?

"Alright, enough small talk. Everyone, please board the ship," Qingyang said with a smile.

"..."

Guxue glanced at Qingyang curiously before following Guxing onto the battleship.

Once everything was ready, Qingyang did not linger.

The massive Radiant Moon Ship turned nimbly, accelerating and leaving the Star Port.

Not long after they boarded, the research team of several hundred people happily began selecting their office spaces.

Not to mention the various laboratories and ecological zones.

Even the living quarters were suites, and there were even various entertainment areas. Even the ordinary corridors were over ten meters wide.

Dark, cold, narrow?

The standard ships of the Star Sea Alliance had nothing to do with these words, let alone Starships.

Several pilots were also in position. Under their brainwave control, the battleship was even slightly smoother than if controlled by an intelligent system.

As the only captain and vice-captain of the combat team onboard, Guxing and Guxue were also on standby in the lounge next to the control room.

Guxing was a bit puzzled at the moment. He had just seen several Dark Mantis Mechs patrolling the main corridor.

These were active mechs that many major countries were still using.

With these, why did Commander Qingyang still recruit 'ordinary' combat teams?

"Brother Qingyang, where are we going next? Will the Pioneer Fleet charge directly into various ruin zones?"

Guxue asked Qingyang, who was sitting on the opposite sofa, with a playful smile.

Guxing's mouth twitched. Brother Qingyang? Have the mess hall and living quarters already won you over?

Qingyang smiled slightly. "Of course, we're going to the frontier. The war just ended there, so the danger level is moderate."

Mainly, I can mess around freely.

"Won't the Commander go to a beginner Dimensional World? The first Dimensional World a new Commander enters within two years of awakening is a reference for recruitment at the Commander Academy."

Guxing could tell at this moment that Qingyang was not from a major power, but he didn't care and instead reminded him.

The teaching locations of the Commander Academy were all on the virtual Star Net, but the resources were genuinely provided for free, with monthly subsidies.

As long as one had the ability, even prodigies backed by major powers would covet the resources of top academies.

The Commander Academy was backed by the powerful nations within the Alliance and the Four Super Nations.

It was a benefit provided by the Alliance to countless civilian commanders.

Qingyang pondered for a moment before saying, "Let's not go yet. It won't be too late when we've assembled a standard fleet."

Guxue puffed out her cheeks. "Brother Qingyang is so cautious. You don't seem like an adventurous Commander."

"It doesn't mean adventurers have to act recklessly," Qingyang replied with a chuckle.

#Regional Bulletin--Star Sea Swarm signals detected at Charka Star Lake. Commanders in the vicinity or off-duty warships are requested to proceed to exterminate them. Detailed coordinates provided.#

Qingyang and Guxing looked at the pop-up screen simultaneously.

It seems to be nearby?

A swarm? This is a classic! Qingyang was overjoyed.

"Activate the Warp Engine, let's make a Subspace Jump!"
