What was going on?
This was the first time in all his years of traveling through the starry sky that Jiang Fan had encountered such a high-level alert threat!
He had no idea what to do next.
Just as he was beginning to fumble around in panic, a clear voice came through the spacecraft's communications system.
"Military zone. Stop immediately! Stop immediately!"
"Who goes there?"
"Report your military number and name immediately!"
"Otherwise, we will take punitive measures!"
Jiang Fan froze.
What the hell? The spacecraft had already been commandeered?
Still, the commotion had helped him figure out the situation, and he quickly calmed down.
"My name is Jiang Fan. I came from Qiyuan Star!"
"I've come this time under orders to join the Star Domain Frontier troops!"
The other side was briefly stunned.
"Please wait!"
What followed was a fairly long wait.
About five minutes later, that voice sounded again.
"Officer Shangguan!"
"Your identity has been verified!"
"We were disrespectful just now. Please forgive us!"
Jiang Fan shook his head and was about to say that it was nothing.
But the other party had already begun making arrangements.
"The flight route through the Heavenly Palace Interior has been synchronized to your spacecraft!"
"Follow this route and arrive at South Heaven Gate!"
"When you arrive, I will guide you to meet the Grand Marshal!"
"I will now relinquish control of your spacecraft!"
"Once again, I apologize for the offense!"
Amid a burst of crackling static, the spacecraft's intelligent pilot took control again.
"Hello!"
"The intelligent pilot has resumed normal functions. Please issue a command!"
Jiang Fan nodded and looked at the location displayed on the pilot's main screen.
"Proceed to the target location!"
"Yes!"
After entering the Nebula Radiation Zone surrounding the Heavenly Palace, the spacecraft's speed slowed considerably.
