Chapter 19 Search
He scanned the chaotic port environment vigilantly.
After a while, Gu Changfeng walked out slowly.
He was wearing casual clothes of the same color and had his signature smile on his face.
"Jinyan, relax."
Gu Changfeng patted his son's shoulder and said in a gentle voice, "Today, the exploration representatives of 'Stardust Mining' are here to investigate the recycling value of abandoned mineral veins.
We are businessmen, not soldiers.”
"Yes, sir...father." Gu Jinyan called the wrong name out of carelessness and felt a little annoyed.
He hated the polluted air and the ubiquitous atmosphere of despair here, and felt a heavy sense of responsibility towards the "royal blood" that his father mentioned might be stranded here.
Where is that child? What happened to him?
They went through the entry formalities in a low-key manner, mainly paying a hefty "environmental management fee," renting an unassuming hover truck, and drove out of the starport.
Gu Changfeng looked at the detector. It was said that there were more than a thousand such small royal bloodline detectors, and they were inspected and maintained by dedicated personnel every year.
At this moment, a small, steady golden dot was lighting up, flashing and marking the direction.
Gu Changfeng lowered his eyes.
The little detector that had been silent all the way suddenly started ringing...
You know, they were afraid of positioning errors, so they stopped at all the planets with recorded inhabitants one by one.
Fortunately, this galaxy is remote and most people don't like to live here.
If it were the capital galaxy, it would be densely packed with planets.
Gu Changfeng shuddered. That meant the census team would have to take over. As a military man, he couldn't do this job.
Even so, it took most of the day to stop at each stop.
Until this planet in the farthest corner, where resources have long been exhausted and development has stopped.
It turned out to be a garbage planet.
Even the air in this place stinks of rusty metal and despair. How could it possibly harbor the blood of Eselan?
It can’t be that a new Eselan hasn’t been born for too long, and it hasn’t been calibrated for hundreds of years.
Gu Changfeng recalled the solemn expressions of the people in the Council of Elders before they left.
The logic verification during the startup of the Central Detection Simulator was dizzyingly complex.
Layer upon layer of genetic spiral projections, energy spectrum comparisons, and confirmation of ancient bloodline patterns...
Finally, it points back to one of the grimiest corners of the galaxy.
The Etheran clan, their individual strength is strong enough to shock the star field, but their spiritual bodies before they are fully developed are extremely fragile, especially when they are young.
Some people say that they are a cursed lineage, and the stronger they are, the sooner they tend to go crazy.
Therefore, their perception and protection of bloodline is almost paranoid.
However, in recent years, the royal family has lost its offspring, and newborns have not appeared in public for several years. This silence makes every ringing of blood seem extremely heavy.
What a huge surprise!
You want me, a legion commander, to search through the garbage dump for royal relatives?
Could it be that some prince, having incurred a debt of debauchery in his youth, had abandoned the child here to fend for himself?]
Gu Changfeng pretended to be flawless on the surface, but his inner drama was full of crazy complaints.
Gu Jinyan could guess without looking back that his father was definitely not thinking about anything serious.
He sighed helplessly and quickly ran his finger across the sensing area on the side of another detector.
The instrument emitted a slight humming sound, and a holographic star map was projected. Countless tiny points of light flickered, eventually converging in the area representing the main city of the garbage planet.
"Father, coordinates confirmed."
Gu Jinyan's voice sounded, with the unique clarity and solemnity of a young man.
"It's in the core area of the main city. The signal is stable and confirmed."
Gu Changfeng raised his eyebrows and paused his inner complaints for a moment.
"We're lucky. It saved us from running around like headless chickens."
"Let's go, the inspection begins."
Gu Jinyan sat in the driver's seat and connected the detector to the car's navigation.
The golden light flashed steadily on the map, guiding the direction.
The vehicles merge smoothly into the "blood vessels" made of scrap metal and pipes leading to the main city.
Gu Changfeng leaned on the passenger seat, watching the dilapidated scene passing by outside the window. Beneath the gentle mask of a businessman, the thoughts of the Tenth Legion Commander were running:
Is the target male or female, and how old is he?
How is the situation?
Did he end up here or was he deliberately hidden?
Is it pointing to a cub or an adult royal?
If it was a cub, it would be a miracle that it could survive in this damn place.
The location indicated by the detector is in the core area of the main city, where the forces are intertwined and the situation is probably even more complicated.
The navigation prompt sounded, and Gu Jinyan followed the instructions, driving the pickup truck away from the suffocating chaos and ruin outside the main city, and turned into a relatively clean street with a hardened surface.
The surrounding scene began to change.
Finally, the pickup truck stopped at the edge of an area that was clearly out of tune with the overall style of the Garbage Planet.
This place seems to be a small piece of rusty iron that is forcibly embedded in the huge rusty iron of "Rusty Heart".
The buildings are generally low, which is obviously a design style that has become popular in recent years, emphasizing livability and comfort.
The houses are spaced far apart, leaving room for well-planned green areas.
Although the plant planted is a kind of pollution-resistant landscape plant with thick leaves that can survive in harsh environments, it is already precious on this planet full of metal garbage and dust.
The streets are clean, with automatic cleaning robots moving slowly.
The air is relatively fresh, with artificial oxygen providing a gentle breeze.
"here it is……"
Gu Jinyan looked at the position mark on the detector screen that almost overlapped with the golden light spot, then looked at this abrupt "oasis" with a frown.
The detector shows that the target is in the area ahead.
There was no one in sight.
Gu Changfeng also stopped complaining in his heart.
He looked at this newly created "comfort zone", and the gentle smile on the corner of his mouth was filled with a hint of playfulness and coldness.
"interesting."
Gu Changfeng said softly.
"There's actually a place like this on this garbage planet?"
The tranquility and cleanliness of this area is itself a silent declaration.
The owner here has strong control and resources.
The royal bloodline that had drifted here was now in this seemingly peaceful but actually heavily fortified area.
"Father, the signal is moving, not very fast, and seems to be approaching the center of the building ahead."
Gu Jinyan stared at the detector screen and quickly analyzed it. "Should we go in directly?"
"No,"
Gu Changfeng shook his head and his eyes swept across the low fence gate at the entrance and the faint reflections on the rooftops of several buildings in the distance.
"This 'oasis' is private property, heavily guarded, and it's unwise to force your way in.
And we don’t know the specific situation inside and the deployment of troops.”
He pondered for a moment and made a quick decision:
"Park the car in the shade and walk around the perimeter.
