The cockpit fell silent.
"Professor, are you serious?"
Zhao Zijie forced the question out.
On the screen, Lü Yongchang nodded with a perfectly straight face.
"Of course."
"The Luan Bird Starship has a basic laboratory. I want to find out what's attracting these jellyfish."
"You don't want to keep living with them, do you?"
Zhao Zijie: "..."
"All right, I'll figure something out."
The corner of his eye twitched as he agreed to Lü Yongchang's request.

In the methane sea, pale yellow, disc-shaped jellyfish rose and fell with the waves.
Suddenly, a powerful light came on at the top of the Starship.
A cloud of white mist instantly rose around the bulb.
It was liquid methane vaporized by the bulb's heat.
A few seconds later, countless pale yellow jellyfish resting quietly on the Luan Bird Starship's surface began frantically "charging" toward the bulb on top.

"Why are all these jellyfish heading toward the searchlight?"
Watching the "fishing team's" first-person feed, Zhao Zijie voiced his confusion.
Lü Yongchang, who was on Mars, naturally saw
