Chapter 415: Chapter 306: Dilemma and the Brave Explorer Expedition Ship

"Oh my... Is this an interstellar setting this time?"

The moment Wang Zhifan regained personal awareness from his daze, he found himself in a bright, airtight office full of a sense of technology. When he turned to look to the side, he noticed a disc-shaped transparent window embedded in the thick, metallic silver-gray wall, and outside the window was pitch black, but within the darkness, dots of countless tiny stars appeared, looking quite mysterious.

"This must be the porthole of the spaceship? And outside is the endless space?"

Entering this kind of environment for the first time, Wang Zhifan felt a bit excited. He tried hard to press his eyes against the center of the disc-shaped transparent window to see what was above, below, left, and right outside, but the answer was just as he expected: all the same pitch black filled with starlight.

"Since this is space, why don’t I feel weightless? It feels no different than being on the ground... Seems like this Brave ship has artificial gravity, which is quite remarkable..."

Wang Zhifan then realized that the technological level of this mission world is very high, which usually also means that the danger level of the mission will greatly increase. For example, the vast space outside this porthole, if he unfortunately gets stranded there, it would definitely be over for him in a long time.

"I must protect this spaceship... Hope its defense capabilities are strong enough."

Feeling both excited and nervous, Wang Zhifan then walked towards the door on the other side of the room’s wall, intending to go out and explore the situation.

However, the door in front of him was unlike any he had seen before; it had no handle to operate and was instead a smooth, white metallic door embedded in the wall. When Wang Zhifan approached it to figure out how to open it and go out, it automatically retracted to one side inside the wall, revealing a wide open door, as if it had detected his intention.

"Interesting."

Feeling curious, Wang Zhifan then stepped through this doorway and entered a corridor, equally bright. In the corridor, he could see several soldier-like figures standing straight, as if on guard.

These people were all wearing blue tech-inspired battle uniforms of the same style, with fully enclosed yellow helmets, thick-soled black combat boots, and white gloves, holding a one-meter-long, clip-less impressive firearm diagonally, seeming to possess formidable combat capability.

"These people should be allies, I can inquire about the situation."

Noticing that his appearance caused no reaction from the soldiers standing guard in the corridor, Wang Zhifan walked towards the nearest one without hesitation, stopping in front of the person.

Through the transparent visor of the yellow helmet worn by the other, he observed that the soldier seemed to be a mixed-race black person; his skin was slightly dark but his features had some Caucasian characteristics, and combined with a medium height and strong physique, he could barely be considered handsome, except his eyes gave a peculiar, motionless, somewhat dull feeling.

"Hello."

After staring at this mixed-race black soldier for two seconds and noticing no reaction, Wang Zhifan had to speak first, slightly suspecting that this guard soldier might not be allowed to communicate with others.

But to his surprise, the black soldier immediately responded after he spoke, though his eyes remained as dull as before.

"Sir, please issue the order."

The person opened their mouth robotically and slightly raised their head to look straight ahead at Wang Zhifan, appearing like an old-fashioned robot.

"Is this person well-trained or have they practiced until foolishness..."

Wang Zhifan was momentarily unsure if this soldier was overly militarized or if their state was somewhat abnormal, so he proceeded to ask:

"Who are you?"

"Reporting, sir, I am a soldier from the Security Division, ID E64662."

The soldier immediately replied.

After hearing this, Wang Zhifan went on to make a rather unusual request:

"Give me your gun."

But as he finished speaking, the black soldier in front of him extended the peculiar firearm in his arms towards him, also answering:

"As you command, sir."

Feeling puzzled by this guy, Wang Zhifan took the firearm handed to him and found that this big piece was lighter than it looked and seemingly really had no magazine. Its muzzle wasn’t a conventional hollow barrel, more like some kind of launcher.

"What gun is this?"

Unable to discern the mechanics of this tech firearm, Wang Zhifan then asked the empty-handed black soldier in front of him.

"Reporting, sir, it’s an SFII gamma radiation rifle."

The soldier responded immediately, nearly mechanically.

"What are its features?"

Seeing this guy answer every question, Wang Zhifan deliberately asked further.

"Reporting, sir, the SFII gamma radiation rifle has strong penetration, suitable for eliminating carbon-based lifeforms..."

The black soldier began explaining, showing no traces of thinking, extremely fluid in his answer.

"That’s impressive... In this world, even black soldiers can be trained to such an extent... Just not sure how high their combat proficiency actually is."

By this point, Wang Zhifan was deeply amazed. After thinking for a while, he returned the rifle to the soldier and proceeded to the next soldier standing guard in the corridor.

Upon reaching the second soldier, he finally noticed a conspicuous issue: this second soldier’s appearance was nearly identical to the previous one, at least as far as Wang Zhifan’s observation could tell no difference, and it wasn’t just the appearance; this second soldier held the same dull state as the previous one, as if they were a duplicate.

"Could it be that these people..."

In his heart, Wang Zhifan suddenly had a suspicion. To verify this, he immediately walked to the third soldier and discovered this one was just like the previous two, identical in appearance and devoid of eye and facial movement.

"Sure enough, clones, the kind mentally neutered at that."

At this point, Wang Zhifan could ascertain that these guard soldiers weren’t naturally human. They were undoubtedly a disposable product manufactured in this mission world for specific purposes; otherwise, there would be no reason for them to be so identical.

"Beep! Beep! Beep!"

Just then, a series of urgent warning sounds reverberated through the corridor, causing Wang Zhifan to frown.

"Warning! Abnormality detected in α Biology Zone! Request immediate support from Security Division!"

"Warning! Abnormality detected in α Biology Zone! Request immediate support from Security Division!"

"Warning! Abnormality detected in α Biology Zone! Request immediate support from Security Division!"

...

Amidst the deafening broadcast calls, Wang Zhifan realized someone was calling for help, or rather, calling for help from his department.

"You guys! Take me to the α Biology Zone immediately!"

In the emergency, Wang Zhifan could no longer hesitate; he hurriedly instructed the clone soldiers to take him to handle the matter, lest there be significant issues on the spaceship due to untimely handling; he wasn’t confident he could survive in space.

Thus, a few seconds later, within the spaceship’s various corridors, a scene emerged of several fully armed soldiers leading a distinctively dressed youth sprinting wildly.

During their dash, they passed through several functional areas of the spaceship, crossing paths with busy crew members, until they entered a relatively secluded control zone, where they encountered an anxiously waiting white scientist.

"You’re finally here! A specimen of alien life I was studying suddenly came alive just now! It’s highly dangerous, having already killed my assistant and two security squads! You must eliminate it quickly!"

The old man urgently prompted upon seeing Wang Zhifan arrive.
