Space Odyssey from Abandoned Mining Space Station

Chen Ming also reconnected with the surrogate at the legion’s headquarters, allowing the surrogate to resume activity.

And naturally, the holographic projection of Chen Ming in the conference room also began to move.

The noisy discussion and the chairman’s voice simultaneously reached Chen Ming’s ears: "I thought you were asleep."

"My focus was entirely on the robot in phase space; I didn’t dare to be distracted."

"What exactly happened? I heard you mention helping to rescue someone, and then you went silent. I could only sense that two powerful forces clashed there."

Chen Ming pondered for a moment, consulted with Bian Gaoxuan, then walked to the main seat and picked up the microphone.

As the screeching sound of the microphone test filled the air, the conference room quieted down.

A projection screen next to the conference room lit up, and footage of the Space Station and Phase Ship played on the screen.

Chen Ming then explained to those on the battlefield what had occurred.

He briefly outlined the planned experimental procedure and the unexpected accident that occurred. He explained the existence of the "rift" and the crimson light it emitted.

He explained up to the point where he released a barrier to block the crimson light.

Chen Ming couldn’t help but discreetly send a message to the chairman via his terminal, saying: "Chairman, your timing in rescuing people was so precise; another moment and Bian Gaoxuan’s ship would have been doomed too."

The chairman seemed somewhat helpless, messaging Chen Ming: "There are two extraordinarily powerful forces clashing in phase space; the residual energy waves from the conflict made it impossible for my spiritual energy to intervene."

"I was anxious too, but only when you used spiritual energy to create a curtain to block the conflict’s residual effects could my spiritual energy reach in to rescue the people."

That was alright then.

The force conflict between the two dimensions was something Chen Ming dared not directly look at, as his massive spiritual power was completely drained and unable to intervene.

The chairman’s spiritual energy being unable to traverse space to intervene was normal.

It was only when Chen Ming used the metal liquid composed of Silent Alloy that blocked a moment that the chairman could leverage the residual waves from the spatial conflict to rescue the people.

But come to think of it, Chen Ming remembered previously that people on the Phase Ship seemed to be wearing protective suits mixed with Silent Alloy.

Yet the chairman used his spiritual energy to rescue them.

"Chairman, can your spiritual energy also bypass Silent Alloy?"

"I can’t do what you do."

The chairman immediately denied Chen Ming’s guess, saying: "If Silent Alloy exists together with other matters, I can use the connection with other matters to extract the Silent Alloy."

"But my spiritual energy cannot directly act on Silent Alloy. Even environments sealed by Silent Alloy can isolate the effects of my spiritual energy."

"It’s like picking up a porcupine."

"You can’t touch the places full of spikes. But places without spikes are fine."

"As long as one can touch the places without spikes, one can pick up the porcupine, so my spiritual energy can still work through indirect effects."

The principle by which the chairman managed to take away people wearing Silent Alloy Armor differs completely from Chen Ming’s ability to directly disregard Silent Alloy.

If not, the chairman wouldn’t have been so shocked earlier when he saw Chen Ming send over a piece of Silent Alloy using spiritual energy.

Chen Ming communicated with the chairman.

Meanwhile, in the conference room, he also explained the situation of the experiment in phase space to all attendees.

Just as Chen Ming finished speaking, the conference room door was pushed open.

After receiving Chen Ming’s help, Bian Gaoxuan confirmed that there were no longer any matters related to the Crimson Dimension within the phase space, and he had the debris from the Space Station and the remaining ships brought back to the normal universe.

At least the device that sends items into and out of phase space worked smoothly, so this counts as good news, right?

Those debris and ships can be studied later; for now...

Bian Gaoxuan approached Chen Ming and addressed others in the conference room: "The experiment failed, but we can learn from the experience and prepare for the next experiment. That’s all for today."

"The experiment report will be compiled soon, and I will send it to you all. We can discuss any issues afterward."

The conference room grew noisy again for a while, then one by one, the holographic projections gradually disappeared.

Only the person sent by Empire’s higher-ups stood and approached Bian Gaoxuan, saying: "This experiment was too reckless; we need to start from the beginning, step by step. Don’t rush into large-scale experiments just after learning the principles of a project."

"Next time, take care to ensure today’s situation doesn’t repeat."

As a member of the Fan Chao Research Institute, Bian Gaoxuan didn’t mind being lectured by Empire’s representative, knowing the words were actually from Empire’s high command being relayed.

He nodded in agreement, expressing he would report back to the Research Institute to reorganize the experimental procedure.

It is evident that Fan Chao Research Institute and Empire are deeply intertwined.

Empire holds authority to issue orders to the Fan Chao Research Institute.

After speaking with Bian Gaoxuan, Empire’s representative suddenly turned to Chen Ming, saying: "You... you’ve done well. Keep up the good work; Empire is always watching you."

Chen Ming, having saved those involved in the experiment, rightly received praise.
