344: Schedule a discussion

The vast majority of the fleet consisted of planetary starships. While these starships performed adequately in routine missions, they were gradually becoming insufficient to cope with the increasingly complex and volatile interstellar situation.

As for stellar-class starships, there were only a handful in the entire fleet, and there wasn't even a single superstellar-class starship.

Thinking of this, Li Yang pondered to himself that if the rewards for this mission could truly achieve a comprehensive upgrade of the fleet, it would undoubtedly be a timely boost to the fleet's overall combat effectiveness.

This would not only mean they would possess greater strength to face various challenges in future interstellar exploration and mission execution, but it would also win the Empire more say in this mysterious cosmic region.

However, he also knew that such an enticing reward would inevitably be accompanied by numerous difficulties, and successfully completing the mission would be anything but easy.

Meanwhile, amidst this tense and busy process of interstellar exploration, Li Yang was not the only one who received notification of the mission change.

Lin Bi, who was far away executing different missions in other areas, and Brothers Hua Dong and Hua Xi, who were diligently researching on the Space Station, all received notification of the new mission at the same time.

The new mission Lin Bi received was to fully cooperate with Li Yang, providing comprehensive support and collaboration in subsequent actions to ensure the mission progressed smoothly.

Brothers Hua Dong and Hua Xi's mission, however, was more specialized and crucial—they needed to devote all their efforts to conduct in-depth research on the mysterious Rule Force, striving to unravel its mysteries and clear obstacles for the subsequent development of the entire mission.

Upon receiving the new mission, Li Yang deeply understood its complexity and arduousness, knowing that he could not handle it alone.

Thus, he quickly used the fleet's internal communication system to summon Lin Bi and Brothers Hua Dong and Hua Xi, deciding to hold an important meeting to collectively discuss the future direction and action plan. In the spacious and brightly lit conference room, soft lighting illuminated every corner.

Li Yang and the main Persons in Charge of this operation gathered, each person's expression exceptionally focused and serious. Li Yang sat upright at the head of the table, his posture tall and straight, his gaze steady and firm. He gently scanned the people present and slowly began to speak.

"Everyone, I presume you have all become familiar with the content of the new mission and the information regarding this mysterious civilization, right?"

He paused slightly, giving everyone a brief moment to think, then continued.

"This mission can be clearly divided into three key points. First, a comprehensive and detailed exploration of two mysterious spaces; second, in-depth research into the Rule Force enveloping this civilization; and third, achieving effective occupation of this civilization. Currently, the second and third mission points are still in their initial stages of progress, so we do not need to be overly anxious about them.

Especially the matter of occupying the civilization, its implementation requires our comrades Hua Dong and Researcher Hua Xi to first research a feasible method to circumvent the Rule Force before we delve into further discussion. After all, the Rule Force is like an invisible yet indestructible barrier; if we cannot properly deal with it, our actions are very likely to suffer heavy setbacks."

"Therefore, based on the current situation, the only thing we can immediately begin to work on is the first mission point—a comprehensive investigation of the two spaces. These two spaces are the space we traversed when we arrived, and the other is the mysterious vortex space we are currently in."

As Li Yang spoke, he clearly marked the locations of these two spaces on the virtual map with his finger, then looked firmly at Lin Bi, who was sitting beside him.

"This extremely challenging exploration mission is solemnly assigned to Comrade Lin Bi. Do you have any questions, Comrade Lin Bi?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Bi immediately straightened his back, his eyes revealing determination and confidence, and he responded loudly without hesitation.

"No problem, General Commander Li Yang! I guarantee that I will lead the troops to outstandingly complete the mission!"

His booming voice echoed in the conference room, as if declaring his firm resolve to everyone.

"Good! We have all witnessed Comrade Lin Bi's capabilities, and I believe you will successfully complete the mission. Next, let's focus on discussing the progress of the second and third mission points..."

A relieved smile appeared on Li Yang's face, and he then steered the conversation towards the more crucial subsequent parts of the mission.

After a heated and in-depth meeting discussion, everyone had a clear understanding of their specific responsibilities and direction in this mission.

Everyone, filled with a sense of mission, quickly left the conference room and rushed to their respective posts, fully dedicating themselves to mission execution.

Of course, as the General Commander of this operation, Li Yang deeply understood that he bore the important responsibility of overall coordination.

At this moment, he sat silently in the main starship's Command Room, fully focused on the various flickering monitoring screens and data indicators before him.

He was like a general commanding from the central tent, quietly awaiting reports from all sides so that he could adjust strategic deployments at any time according to the actual situation, ensuring the entire mission progressed smoothly and systematically as planned.

Time flowed quietly, and amidst the tense yet orderly pace, half a month passed in a flash.

Lin Bi led his fleet, like fearless explorers, traversing through the vast space, conducting a meticulous exploration of the two mysterious spaces.

Finally, perseverance paid off, and Lin Bi and his fleet successfully completed the exploration of both spaces.

Reassuringly, they did not discover any traces of other civilizations in these two spaces.

When this news was clearly transmitted to Li Yang's ears via the communication channel, his long-strained nerves finally relaxed slightly, and he let out a long sigh of relief.

After all, with the current strength of the fleet, dealing with the current civilization was already an all-out effort. If there were one or even more civilizations, the situation would undoubtedly become extremely tricky, and they might fall into a predicament of being overwhelmed.

Just as Li Yang was relieved by Lin Bi's successful completion of the mission, exciting new discoveries once again came from the research Space Station.

Brothers Hua Dong and Hua Xi, relying on their excellent scientific research capabilities and continuous day and night diligence, had initially found a method to circumvent the attacks of the Rule Force.

Upon receiving the news, Li Yang deeply understood the importance of this discovery. He quickly gathered relevant personnel, and the group rushed towards the research Space Station in a hurry.

Along the way, everyone's mood was both excited and nervous, all eager to understand the research results of Brothers Hua Dong and Hua Xi, anticipating that this discovery would open up new possibilities for the subsequent mission of occupying the civilization.
