Two eighty-meter heavy patrol boats and three three-hundred-and-fifty-meter first-class transport ships slowly crawled out of the Hell's Angels Mercenary Corps base.

  Nine pitch-black Earth Federation patrol ships were cruising several kilometers away, they symbolically verified the password and let Gu Xiechen lead a small fleet into space.

  Two mackerel-shaped heavy patrol boats have combat capabilities above the standard, and Captain Qiu spent a lot of money to get these two treasures from the retired ships of the Earth Federation Army. After being modified with parts exchanged on the black market, these two heavy patrol boats have firepower and mobility equivalent to that of a third-class warship in active service in the Earth Federation, only slightly weaker in defense.

  As for the three first-class transport ships, due to the inherent limitations of transport ships, Captain Qiu also spent a lot of money on these three transport ships, but only made them slightly faster than ordinary civilian ships. A little armor was added to the vital parts, and three small-caliber laser cannons were installed at the bow and stern respectively. The slight modification gave the three transport ships some defensive capabilities.

  Kuja Dust is unfamiliar with operating warships, everything is operated by professional sailors from the Hell's Angel Mercenary Group.

  The on-board computer calculated the optimal route, and the five fully-loaded spaceships used the moon's gravity to change their trajectory. The spaceship engines gradually increased in power, and after five days and four nights of acceleration, the five spaceships approached two-thirds of the speed of light. With a single order from the captain of the heavy cruiser "Hell Hound", the curvature engines of the five spaceships simultaneously ejected hot blue plasma flows, and the five spaceships instantly broke through the speed of light, entering subspace curvature cruising.

  Subspace curvature lightspeed cruising technology was provided by the Romans, and it is with this technology that Earth's humans have qualified to leave Earth and move towards the universe. In the process of subspace cruising, the spaceship advances at standard light speed, but relative to the positive space where the Earth is located, the relative speed has reached hundreds or even higher multiples.

  After half a month of hyperspace travel, Gu Xiechen led the small fleet out of hyperspace into a new starry sky. Surrounding a huge giant star, the surroundings were a chaotic planetary belt.

  The Alpha Quadrant of the Milky Way Galaxy, this is the first resource quadrant opened up by the Earth Federation.

  The Alpha Starfield has more than 100 resource planets, rich in rare metals that are scarce on Earth. However, only three of these resource planets have been developed and utilized so far. The Alpha Starfield has only one small planet with a thin atmosphere, similar in size to the Moon, which has a very primitive biosphere. The underground caves of this planet are home to powerful beasts based on carbon-silicon hybrid genes. This planet, named "Alpha-1", is the core planet of the Alpha Starfield and is home to the headquarters of the Donau River Heavy Metals Corporation.

  Alpha-1's extremely harsh natural environment made it impossible for large-scale immigration, with the entire planet having only over 30,000 miners from the Donau River Heavy Metals Corporation and a garrison of over 1,000 troops. Recently, the ferocious beasts in the underground tunnels suddenly formed a beast tide to attack the mining area, killing and injuring over 1,000 troops. The commander of the Seventh Regiment of the Hell's Angel Mercenary Corps, Delane, led over 2,400 mercenaries to come here for protection.

  Gu Xie dust stood in the command cabin of the patrol boat, browsing through all the data on the Alpha Star Domain. It was easy to imagine what it would mean to discover a new wormhole in the Alpha Star Domain. A new planet, suitable for large-scale immigration, would inevitably trigger a high tide of development in the Alpha Star Domain. According to the Earth Federation's regulations, after Hell Angel Mercenary Corps obtained one-tenth of the exploitation rights of the new planet, they could take down one-tenth of the resource star exploitation rights in the Alpha Star Domain!

  The Danube River Heavy Metals Corporation has only just begun to mine the mineral deposits of three resource stars and already they have become one of the top three mining companies in the Federation!

  Gu Xie dust rose with both hands, he ordered: "Tell Da Lai to find an excuse to gather half of the brothers here to converge, don't arouse the suspicion of those people from the Duonao River Heavy Metal Company."

  Five warships were hiding behind a derelict asteroid, and the probes on Alpha-1 had no idea of their arrival. Less than two hours after Kuxiao Chen's order was issued, a mining company's giant transport ship with a length of over 500 meters arrived under the escort of one heavy patrol boat, three light patrol boats, and six fast assault speedboats.

  The patrol boat where Gu Xiadun was and the patrol boat where Dali Ren were met, and Dali Ren brought several officers of the Seventh Regiment to meet with Gu Xiadun.

  "Deputy Commander!" A burly man with a strong physique, resembling a male lion, bowed to Gu Xiechen. The two deputy commanders of the Seventh Legion behind him looked at Gu Xiechen with disdain.

  Gu Xie dust glanced at Da Lai several times, and he said in a cold voice: "Uncle Hu Zi let me be in charge of everything here. Our mercenary team is conducting a preliminary survey of this planet and establishing an advance base on it. As long as we are the first to establish our own base on it, and send back the survey data to Earth at the first time, we will have one tenth of this planet and the surrounding star field! Is there any problem?

  Dà Lài Yīn Měng straightened his body: "No problem!"

  A deputy officer behind Da Laien said indifferently: "With our more than 3,000 people, can we survey a new planet? Don't forget how many lives were lost in the initial survey of the Federation's colonies! I insist on my opinion, now report the news to the Federation, and the Federation's reward is enough for all brothers to retire with dignity."

  Another deputy officer sneered: "Of course, we admit that if we successfully surveyed this planet, the brothers would get more rewards. But the risk is too great!"

  Guxiaochen stared at the two deputy officers, and the two deputy officers also stared coldly at Guxiaochen. Guxiaochen shook his head and asked Dalain: "Dalain, you are the leader of the Seventh Regiment, are you afraid of danger?"

  Dà Lài Yīn took a deep breath, his eyes gleaming with a hint of tension as he shook his head and said: "Wealth and honor are won in the midst of danger, Deputy Commander. We're mercenaries, fighting for our lives - that's what we do best."

  "Alright, I'll make the decision!" Gu Xie said resolutely: "Everyone listen to my command, go to that planet and try to establish a forward base, and conduct a preliminary survey of the planet. All actions should be cautious, if we find that the surface of the planet has indigenous aliens, try to get along with them peacefully!"

  He moistened his lips and smiled faintly: "I hope they are still in the primitive society, so we can appear before them as gods."

  Grand Admiral Lahra and the officers behind him burst out laughing. This was indeed the most ideal situation in interstellar development. A planet with a good natural environment, a large native population, if they were still in the primitive civilization stage, the Earth Federation could easily control them. In this way, even the labor force for early development would be available. Moreover, the natives did not belong to the citizens of the Earth Federation, no matter how much work they did, there was no need to pay them wages!

  Two deputy officers who held dissenting opinions also smiled, their smiles a bit strange.

  Ke Xie dust can understand their emotions, was rejected by themselves their opinions, can laugh out, proves that their psychological quality is already very good.

  "So, people from the Danube River Company, are you unaware of their movements?" Gu Xiachen asked the most important question to Da Laiyin.

  "They can't possibly know. The excuse I gave was that we went to hunt the ferocious beasts in the underground caves, and they begged for it."

  "Very well, let's set off!" Gu Xie ordered: "The reinforcement troops of the third and fifth regiments will arrive in seven days at the latest. We have enough manpower."

  Two small fleets merged into one, and under the guidance of Da Lai, the small fleet arrived in a chaotic asteroid belt in the Alpha Star Domain after three days of flight. There are always large numbers of meteorites whizzing by here, and interstellar dust rubbing against each other in the void, generating a lot of firelight. The lowest temperature in this space is minus 210 degrees Celsius, while some active asteroid belts bring large amounts of meteorite flows and interstellar dust to rub against each other, generating high temperatures that can reach over 30,000 degrees Celsius. Every time an asteroid rushes by, it brings up a dazzling stream of fire in the vast space.

  This is a forbidden zone of life, a place like hell. I really don't know how the extremely bored Dalien could discover a new wormhole while driving a patrol boat in such a place.

  Carefully avoiding the dozens of meteor showers and countless asteroid fragments from two small shooting stars colliding, the fleet slowly approached the core of the asteroid belt.

  Here is a rare existence of an elliptical void with a diameter of over 50 kilometers. In the center of this void, there are only about thirty large and small meteorites floating in mid-air. Among these rocks, there is a black hole that occasionally emits a large amount of far-infrared rays. This black hole is the most mysterious wormhole in the universe, which can instantly transport people to another star domain as a shortcut.

  Kuxia dust launched several small armed satellites and magnetic suspension bombs in all directions, and then hung three positioning signal generators near the wormhole. After that, the small fleet resolutely entered the wormhole.

  At the moment when the spaceship plunged into the wormhole, Gu Xiechen suddenly felt that there was something extremely familiar around him, but this strange familiarity was thrown behind his brain. In this busy universe, too many things are similar to each other. Stars, planets, small meteorites, these things have been seen in too many places.

  The people inside the ship were momentarily dizzy and disoriented, followed by a strong light that penetrated through the high-intensity bulletproof glass in front of the command cabin.

  In the star domain ahead, there is a star with a volume similar to that of the sun, and seven planets of different sizes are orbiting around this star. Among the seven planets, the other six are all dull, worthless rocky planets, while the second planet has lush green forests and grasslands, and blue oceans and lakes. The green represents forests and grasslands, and the blue represents oceans and lakes. From a distance, this planet, with a diameter twice that of Earth, has an ocean area covering more than 60% and a land area covering about 30%.

  The planet's atmosphere is extremely thick, at least three times that of the Earth. Satellite remote sensing reveals a turbulent flow above the planet's atmosphere, with layer upon layer of white waves visible to the naked eye rapidly traversing the upper atmosphere. Remote sensing data shows that dozens of main waves are flying at speeds close to the speed of sound!

  Kuxia Chen, Dalai and everyone in the command cabin couldn't help but take a cold breath when they saw this terrible data.
