While maintaining an altitude of 5,000 meters and looking through the soul screen, the surface of the star was clearly visible, and various details on the surface could be seen clearly thanks to the sensor’s magnifying capabilities.
Lan Xuanyu and Tang Le were standing in front of the screen, focusing on the output.
Tang Le placed his hands on Lan Xuanyu’s shoulders, and Bai Xiuxiu handed the Silver Dragon Spear to Lan Xuanyu. Then, she took off the dragon scale necklace from her neck and put it around Lan Xuanyu’s neck.
The real search had now begun.
Lan Xuanyu closed his eyes, held the Silver Dragon Spear in his hand, steadied his body, and silently felt the aura belonging to Nana on the Silver Dragon Spear. The dragon scale on his neck emitted a faint coolness, and that familiar feeling made his breathing a little hurried.
The first thing he felt was the scorching, boundless fire element. If a mote of fire element on the mother planet was only the size of a grain of dust, then a mote here was the size of a lychee fruit, and the rich fire element naturally released a sense of intimacy upon sensing Lan Xuanyu’s aura. However, the fire element here was obviously much wilder and did not dare approach him because his spiritual power was bolstered by Tang Le’s own.
“Focus and guard yourself, don’t ‘look’, but feel the existence of her aura,” Tang Le’s voice sounded in his ear.
Lan Xuanyu immediately became more alert. His originally outwardly projected spiritual power slowly condensed into a sphere, suspended outside the star probe. He silently felt the aura of the fire element from his surroundings and focused on detecting the possible emergence of anomalous auras in the air. Even if it was a slight fluctuation, as long as it was similar to teacher Nana’s, he would feel it.
The search began in this way.
The volume of this star was relatively small to average for its kind, which was a very favourable situation. Even so, the surface area to explore was still very large.
The range that the star explorer could detect was ultimately limited. Based on previous calculations, even with three explorations, each lasting three hours, it was doubtful that the entire surface of the star could be scanned.
The reason the Federation had acted on this matter was mainly to provide gesture of good will for the Sky Fighter Department, and it was also an occasion for the Federation and the Sky Fighter Department to get closer. The military had acted because in the event such a woman truly existed, the possibility of her being recruited by the military was high. After all, she had been under the control of the War God Palace before. There was also a sense of responsibility among military personnel towards the badge and the prestige it represented, as the War God Palace ultimately belonged to the military.
Even with Tang Le’s psychic assistance, his mental energy was still greatly consumed. He quickly sat cross-legged in place and meditated silently.
They found nothing except for the fire element on the star. “The scanned locations have been recorded, and they will be excluded in the next attempt,” said Zhang Zekai, the young general, with a slightly relieved tone as they gradually left the gravity of the star. He was not a god-rank powerhouse, nor did he have the ability to survive on the surface of a star. Exploring at a depth of five thousand meters was still a very dangerous thing.
But it couldn’t be helped. Searching for people on the surface of a star was like looking for a needle in a haystack. If they were at an altitude of 10,000 meters, it was very likely that they wouldn’t even be able to spot them from above. However, with their current exploration methods, they couldn’t possibly cover the entire range of the star in three missions.
When Lan Xuanyu’s spirits had recovered somewhat and he regained consciousness, the probe had already returned to the mother ship. His mood was noticeably low.
It wasn’t until they began exploring in earnest that he truly understood how difficult it was to rescue someone on a star. Teacher Nana…
An anxious feeling began to grow in Lan Xuanyu’s heart.
“Okay,” nodded Lan Xuanyu, holding her hand. It wasn’t just him who was anxious; It was the same for Bai Xiuxiu, but she had been comforting herself all along.
Resting and waiting are often the most agonizing processes, especially in a situation such as this. The next attempt was to take place in the northern hemisphere of the star. Although it was impossible to explore every nook and cranny, the three scans would definitely cover as much area as possible.
The circumference at the planet’s equator was the largest, and any parallel trajectory in the northern hemisphere was naturally smaller. With time-saving measures and increased speed, the probe could make two round trips within three hours.
Yu Muchen helped Lan Xuanyu to convince everyone to try for the completion of two passes in the second attempt, which would then cover a much larger area.
Lan Xuanyu’s face became even paler. There was only one chance left. If they still couldn’t find Nana’s whereabouts, it basically meant Nana’s death. This was something he couldn’t accept in his heart no matter what!
