Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After approximately half an hour, the Dock Landing Ship’s mainframe was reactivated under 0542’s control. In an instant, all information recorded in the Dock Landing Ship’s mainframe had been transferred to 0542’s system.

“Captain, the transfer of data from the Dock Landing Ship is complete!” 0542 reported to Jiang Fei after taking over the Dock Landing Ship’s control.

“What’s the status update?” Jiang Fei asked.

“The Dock Landing Ship’s dynamical system has been badly damaged. It can no longer take off. However, as you have acquired the military factory, it can be repaired at any given time,” 0542 answered.

“Alright!” Jiang Fei nodded. He then asked, “What are the functions of this Dock Landing Ship? Is there anything valuable in this place?” The source of this content is novelenglish.net . (f)ire

“The Dock Landing Ship’s main purpose is to transport freight. Its battle capabilities are relatively weaker. However, it is still much stronger than most of earth’s technology. After all, it’s still a space battleship,” 0542 answered.

“Okay! Since it’s meant to carry stuff, don’t tell me it’s empty!” Jiang Fei said. Since the ship was used to transport freight, there should be quite a number of valuable items contained within.

“Captain, the Dock Landing Ship does indeed contain quite a lot of items. However, I suggest you head over to Cabin 35!” 0542 said as it projected Cabin 35’s location in front of Jiang Fei.

“Oh?” Jiang Fei was stunned. Although he did not know what 0542 was up to, he knew that the Intelligent Assistance System would do him no harm. Therefore, he started walking toward Cabin 35 with Ariel next to him.

Creak...

As the door of the cabin was opened, Jiang Fei stepped inside Cabin 35.

“This is... a Bio-Cultivation Pod!” Jiang Fei was shocked by the interiors of the cabin.

“That’s right! One of the crew members of Braveheart lies within this Bio-Cultivation Pod!” 0542 said. Jiang Fei suddenly felt tense. If one of the Planet Namek’s members was alive, Jiang Fei would lose his position as captain. Jiang Fei immediately had intentions to kill what was inside the pod.

“Captain, don’t worry. According to the Dock Landing Ship’s mainframe records, this crew member had died long before Braveheart had crashed on earth!” 0542 explained.

“Whew...” Jiang Fei sighed with relief. Although 0541 had promised that all crew members of Braveheart had died, Jiang Fei was still slightly disturbed when he discovered one of them in the Dock Landing Ship. Fortunately, 0542 reassured him that this fellow had died 7,000 years ago. Otherwise, Jiang Fei would not know what to do.

Creak...

As the Bio-Cultivation Pod’s outer layer opened, the layer of glass within was revealed. Jiang Fei could finally see the crew member’s appearance.

To be honest, Planet Namek’s inhabitants were very ugly. Although they were shaped like humans, they did not live up to the human standards of beauty.

Planet Namek’s inhabitants had frog-like heads and hair which looked like octopus’ tentacles. In fact, they had four arms and skin which was similar to that of a snake’s. Jiang Fei could feel chills down his spine.

“Eww...” Jiang Fei covered his mouth. Although 0541 had previously shown him images of how Planet Namek’s inhabitants looked like, Jiang Fei was still disgusted when he saw one of them in person. He could feel goosebumps all over his body.

Jiang Fei was not the only person who reacted this way. Ariel was even more disgusted by the sight of the alien. Even if she was very powerful, Ariel was still only a lady. The fact that she had not run away immediately showed how much she cared for Jiang Fei.

“Can you ascertain the reason of his death?” Jiang Fei asked. As 0541 did not know how the crew members of Braveheart had died, Jiang Fei wanted to find out now that he had seen one of their bodies in person.

“He was choked to death after the life-sustaining system had been forcefully terminated!” 0542 answered very quickly.

“Was he assassinated?” Jiang Fei was stunned.

“Yes. There is a recorded diary from him in the Dock Landing Ship’s mainframe system. According to the diary, there was internal strife between crew members of Braveheart when it had traveled close to the earth. The majority had tried to poison the captain to kill him. However, the poison was not triggered immediately. The captain had forcefully shut off the entire life-sustaining system within Braveheart with his dying breath. He even ordered the Intelligent Assistance System to delete the related messages to eliminate the final part of Planet Namek’s dark history,” 0542 answered.

“An internal strife? Ahh! Even when they were close to extinction, these fellows were still fighting each other for the sake of power.” Jiang Fei sighed. The glorious civilization of Planet Namek had become extinct due to a failed experiment by a few scientists. The few remaining survivors had even killed each other due to internal strife. It was, indeed a very sad story to hear.

“Is this corpse of any use? If not, destroy it,” Jiang Fei said to 0542. After all, Jiang Fei was only an interim captain. He would naturally be repelled by the rightful crew members from Planet Namek, regardless of whether they were dead or alive.

“Alright! As you wish!” 0542 immediately followed Jiang Fei’s instructions. After all, 0542 was a very new Intelligent Assistance System that did not have any sentiments for Planet Namek. Therefore, it respected Jiang Fei, who was the current captain far more than a dead Planet Namek’s inhabitant.

“What else is on this Dock Landing Ship apart from this fellow?” Jiang Fei asked.

“Congratulations, captain! There are plenty of resources on this Dock Landing Ship,” 0542 reported chirpily.

As the former captain had forcefully terminated all life-sustaining systems in Braveheart before he died from being poisoned, none of the crew members were able to survive. Moreover, as these remaining crew members had plans to escape, they had filled the Dock Landing Ship with a large amount of resources to ensure their sustenance after landing on a new planet. Unfortunately, this particular crew member was choked to death before the ship even landed.

From 0542’s calculations, there were 10,000 android soldiers and their respective weapons and equipment. There were also 30,000,000 Energy Crystals on the ship!

Planet Namek had set rules that Artificial Intelligence was not allowed in battles. It was also not allowed to possess weapons. Therefore, all of the android soldiers had to be remotely controlled without any intelligent programming. They were adequately armed to deal with normal military but not metahumans. However, Jiang Fei did not mind at all. After all, he was not a fan of wars. He did not have plans to use these android soldiers for himself. He would perhaps hand them over to Han Tianyu to be used as a protective force for the Winter Islands.

In comparison to the less useful android soldiers, Jiang Fei was much more pleasantly surprised by the large amount of Energy Crystals they had found. Previously, Han Tianyu’s 1,000 Energy Crystals had already helped him out a great deal. Now, he had found 30,000,000 Energy Crystals. Jiang Fei would definitely be able to revive Isabella with this much energy.
