The exploration mission had no choice but to end.
But they had already returned with a full haul.
The dragon species Jiang Han and the two sponsors had discovered was officially named by Angelite:

They divided up the wealth in the manager's office of the Witch House. Lin Qiang also kept a dragon tail, paying out of her own pocket to make up the portion her dividend could not cover.
