Chapter 964: Passing Through
The spaceship stopped in a small yet fortress-like space station dock, with strict defenses. Ji You, Shen Changqing, Chu Jiaojiao, Sheng Qingyan... a group of seven people, together with the spaceship, all went through security checks at the space station.
This space station is a military defense space station built by the Alliance near the Star Domain close to Bee Head Star. It serves as a forward base, specifically for collecting and probing Star Beast information, defending against their invasions, and combating interstellar pirates to protect commercial ships or the life and property of Alliance citizens along the way. Currently, there are 100 mechanical warriors stationed here.
The station is heavily guarded, ensuring safety by requiring all individuals, whether Alliance citizens or foreign nationals, to undergo intricate layers of security checks.
Ji You, Chu Jiaojiao, Sheng Qingyan... all cooperated fully with the stationed troops’ inspections.
Once all checks were completed, Ji You and her group received their passes for Bee Head Star.
Distributing the passes was a middle-aged warrior with healthy, sun-kissed skin and bright eyes. When he saw Ji You and the young group, his stern expression softened slightly as he asked, "Are you students from the Lanyue Star Military Academy?"
Ji You replied loudly, "Yes."
The middle-aged warrior smiled, "Nice, very spirited."
He handed the pass to Ji You, having examined her brief profile and knowing she was from the Combat Department, with a minor in Material Handling. He then asked, "How is Professor Ye Hong?"
Ji You paused for a moment and quickly responded, "He’s doing well."
The old geezer is indeed doing well, especially when he’s scolding people—his energy is robust, and you can’t tell he’s a few hundred years old.
When Professor Ye Hong was mentioned, the middle-aged warrior saw Ji You’s smile quickly wrinkle into a frown and said with a laugh, "He’s a very serious, meticulous, and stubborn old guy. However, his teaching is excellent. Yet he’s quite old now and can’t keep up with teaching demands; probably in another 10 years, he’ll have to retire. So, if you’re interested in Material Handling, you should cherish your time in his classes."
