The Meteor Arrives, Destination: Ocean of Stars!

"Damn it, my dear brother, if you had come any later, Commander Su would have dropped my head down to find you!"

"It's my fault too. I didn't think to tell you to bring a few more filters. This protective suit can't last two hours!"

"Hurry up, I'll have Yan Xiaqing come and give you a thorough check-up!"

The entrance beneath the rocket, which was parked about 90 meters below, had just been opened.

Before Su Mo could even enter and completely close the door, Lü Kuan, who was controlling the robot, pounced on him.

He looked like a hungry wolf.

This exploration, including the initial time, took eight hours by the time Su Mo arrived.

For the first two hours of those eight hours, I was within the protection of the protective suit, so it was alright.

The protective suits began to fail from the third hour onwards.

For Lü Kuan, it was a hellish, anxious wait.

During this time, Su Deben, Ji Yang, Yan Xiaqing and others came out to reprimand them.

His reaction was quite genuine!

Oreo, lying not far from Lü Kuan, was much calmer.

It just leisurely wagged its tail and chuckled.

"No, I'm covered in radiation. Let me take my clothes off first!"

"I'm not afraid, I'm made of iron!"

When he said this, Lü Kuan's eyes were practically glowing.

This robot has many simple scanning devices on its body.

Although not as precise as the standard version, scanning the protective suit in front of him allowed him to obtain a general understanding of Su Mo's physical condition without any problems.

Su Mo did not refuse Lü Kuan's kind offer.

Just as expected.

As countless scan data floated past Lü Kuan's eyes.

He was indeed stunned.

"Your protective suit still has 18 minutes of energy remaining? That's impossible! You were clearly down there for 7 hours and 42 minutes."

"Did you take off your protective suit down there? Holy crap, do you have a death wish?"

"Don't worry, the radiation underground isn't what you think. Let me take off my clothes first, and then I'll explain it to you in detail!"

He grabbed the entire door and made sure it was completely closed.

Su Mo picked up the two collection jars hanging from his waist and gently waved them.

The previous jars contained only soil from the radiation zone and blood from the ocean.

But when he finally left, Su Mo leisurely lurked to the bottom of the sea.

It took away the Blood Soil beneath the sea that had undergone radiation mutation and generated energy level fluctuations.

And some liquids and impurities that splash out when the flames are sprayed onto the ground surface.

To those who don't know anything about these things, they are naturally worthless, not even as substantial as two big white steamed buns.

But for a research fanatic like Lü Kuan, it held a fatal attraction.

As expected, once Lü Kuan's gaze fell upon the area and he obtained the general data through analysis, his eyes were unable to look away.

"Su Mo, you're a madman, an absolute adventure madman!"

Thank you for the compliment.

Beneath the mask, a smile appeared as he watched Lü Kuan reluctantly leave with the jar, turning back to look at him every few steps.

After giving Oreo a reassuring look.

Su Mo strode into the isolation room, took off his protective suit, and began to rinse off.

The blood-red soil peeled off his body and was automatically collected into the isolation chamber.

Even the traces of radioactive material hidden in the crevices were washed away by the high-pressure water gun, leaving them nowhere to hide.

When faced with radiation, the human body is as fragile as a sheet of paper.

Even without medical care today, despite the existence of Psionic Water and systems, Su Mo still exercised extreme caution in this regard!

They waited until the water on the ground flowed out and finally no more impurities could be seen.

After stopping the shower, discarding the previous clothes, and changing into a new set of clothes stored in the Storage Space.

Su Mo then strode out.

At the doorway, Oreo remained lazily lying there, waiting.

With Sixth Sense, unlike Lü Kuan's anxiety, Oreo remained as steady as a rock, even as he could sense Su Mo's strong lifeline.

He took Oreo to the activity pod in front, took out the prepared dinner, and mixed in some Psionic Water.

Watching Oreo eat with such gusto.

Su Mo smiled, stepped over lightly, and strode into the Captain's Cabin.

From setting sail to the great battle, to fighting against the royal family, to searching for the Expeditionary Force base, and flying into the high skies of the wasteland.

That concludes the discussion.

When Su Mo sat back down, it meant that this voyage was only one step away from a successful conclusion.

And all those days of hard work not only successfully completed all the plans set up before setting sail.

They even received some unexpected and astonishing rewards that were not originally planned.

With these rewards, the entire depression will experience rapid development in the upcoming New Continent.

The efforts of hundreds or even thousands of generations of humanity will be completely ignited in Su Mo's hands! "After you left, I used the rocket's detection module to roughly analyze the energy reactions of several nearby planets. Strangely enough, they also seem to have been bombarded by nuclear weapons, producing the same frequency fluctuations."

"The rocket still has 64% of its energy remaining. If we reserve about 20%, it will be enough for us to return to the wasteland. Shall we go explore some more?"

He saw Su Mo sit down.

Lü Kuan first looked Su Mo up and down to make sure there was nothing wrong, and then offered his advice.

Su Mo shook his head. "No need. The nearby planets are no different from here. And the planets we see outside are just illusions set up by these gods before they leave or die. If we have the ability to see through these illusions, the high sky above is actually not much different from Death Land. It's just that there are some new radiation reactions and some interesting little things!"

"Let's go back. Once we return to the wasteland and accumulate enough strength, sooner or later, everything within our sight will be our territory!"

"Now, let the bullets fly for a while!"

He blew on his fingers and gave a wide smile.

The instant Su Mo placed his hand on the control lever, a light blue glow reappeared from his body, on a level that Lü Kuan could not see.

It enveloped the entire rocket.

"Okay, I understand, but what about our destination?"

"The Ocean of Stars of the wasteland!"

"?"

"Ahem, the place where we started!"

Boom! Positioning successful, both joysticks lifted simultaneously.

The Youneng Shuttle Rocket, which was originally flying in circles, suddenly began to pitch up, eventually turning into an angle of nearly 90 degrees, and flew straight out.

The familiar adhesion, the familiar breakthrough.

When the planets, adorned with colorful starlight, reappeared in view, Su Mo issued a second command.

"Jailout all our auxiliary wing units, leaving only the Return Capsule and the operational capsule."

Lü Kuan was shocked. "Huh? We don't want all those instruments we collected? Although these things aren't unique in the wasteland, replicating them isn't easy. We need to find a lot of materials and use some special techniques to make them. If we abandon them now, we won't be able to use them for a long time!"

"Abandon!"

With a sharp look in his eyes, Su Mo spoke slowly again.

After talking with Jiang Chu, Su Mo gained a new understanding of these details that he might not have paid attention to before.

Although the game is a behemoth "bound" by a series of rules.

But that doesn't mean he's completely brainless.

These instruments, brought out from the base, all bore the aura of those who had previously used divine authority.

If the game escalates again, Survival Points will inevitably be needed to cover it up.

At that time, if he didn't have enough Survival Points, Su Mo would inevitably have to break ties with the game.

Furthermore, these things, which have complete technical data and can be manufactured with just materials, will certainly be manufactured in the New Continent.

Rather than doing this, it's better to be decisive now.

Only keep the Brain Box and the Virtual Reality equipment! "Okay, if you think it's necessary, discarding them might be the right thing to do!"

The image of that large gray hand that had attacked the base earlier flashed through his mind.

Lü Kuan shuddered and entered the command without any hesitation.

The next second, the rocket's two side wings began to detach.

Driven by the gravitational pull of the high altitude, it crashed heavily onto a planet below, bursting into a dazzling display of light and sparks.

Meanwhile, the Energy Bay at the rear of the rocket automatically ejected the remaining 41% of the Energy Walnut and sent it to the Captain's Cabin, before initiating the second stage separation.

Crash!

Just like the previous wing-body, after the two lower sections of the rocket completely detached and exploded.

The energy supply to the Return Capsule began to come in steadily, and it quickly deployed a pair of small wings to maintain the overall attitude of the capsule.

"Current hull attitude is perfect, current energy supply output is perfect, current hull length is 6.99 meters, current external hull temperature is 49.1 degrees Celsius."

"Navigation complete, destination wasteland coordinates 36210.33591.25.96"

"Current return speed is 3.15 km/s; expected to increase to 22.1 km/s in two minutes."

"Estimated return time is 5 hours and 9 minutes!"

After standardly reporting all the data, Su Mo nodded slightly, and Lü Kuan's mechanical arm slammed down.

Boom! As if the world had turned upside down, in an instant, the angle of the Return Capsule was adjusted to vertical downwards.

The next second, pulled by gravity and an energy burst from the rear of the Return Capsule.

The entire cabin, like fireworks in the night sky, began to burst forth with dazzling light.

Although this light is less intense than the bright star next to it.

It can only be described as bright, not dazzling.

But compared to the bleak planet that caused Lü Kuan and his companions to fail twice, it is remarkable enough!

Like a shooting star, as soon as the two-minute time limit was reached, the entire Return Capsule was pressurized to a speed of 70,000 kilometers per hour.

The entire Return Capsule had become completely hot.

Even with the barrier of psionic materials, the temperature of the outer shell reached an unprecedented 4,500 degrees Celsius.

It's almost touching the surface of the sun!

Rays of light converge, and the immense energy generated by the friction between the outer shell and the air.

At exactly twelve o'clock in the wasteland, the meteor formed by the Return Capsule of the psionic rocket.

It immediately attracted everyone's attention at first glance.

At this moment, Su Mo, who had stood up in front of the French windows, felt a surge of heroic spirit welling up inside him.

No matter how many difficulties I faced, I overcame them! No matter how great the obstacles, I charged forward!

Now it's wasteland.

I.

I'm back!
