My Exclusive Dream World Adventures
Chapter 269 - Chapter 269 269 Ominous Premonition

Chapter 269: 269 Ominous Premonition Chapter 269: 269 Ominous Premonition “Now, the two biggest problems we face are, first, the severe radiation. This constrains our mobility greatly, forcing us to wear thick protective suits whenever we go outside. Moreover, we must rely on the spaceship or the base to survive.”

Aboard the landing craft, Yang Jinxia was engaging in their second formal conversation with Bai Jinxuan.

By this time, a month had already passed since they entered this dreamlike world. During this period, the two women went about their affairs without interfering with each other, barely communicating.

They were each searching for a way out in their own way, more precisely, trying to reunite with Chen Xu as soon as possible.

This month, they mainly studied the items aboard the spacecraft.

By now, Bai Jinxuan still had no clue; in the previous dream, although she had encountered several robot attacks in the camp, she had focused her energy on learning to sing and was not well-versed in these matters.

Thus, when Yang Jinxia approached her, she could only listen.

“The second problem is that communication signals are unstable, and we have already lost contact with the mother ship. We’ve launched several communication rockets, but there has been no response so far. We can only prepare for the worst.”

“At the moment, all we can rely on is the equipment aboard the spaceship.”

When Bai Jinxuan heard this, she nodded. Their exploration team’s mission was intelligence gathering. Aside from food and materials to construct a small camp, the spacecraft also carried various drones and robots for exploration.

Unfortunately, due to signal blockages, once they moved beyond a certain range, the drones and robots would lose control.

She had read the detailed manuals for the drones and robots; each of these machines was equipped with a blocking device that would automatically shut down their core chips and enter an emergency shutdown state if their connection to the spaceship’s main system signal was interrupted.

And once they shut down in an emergency, rebooting them would be quite troublesome. They would need to be transported back to the mother ship where the rebooting devices were situated.

The purpose of this was not hard to guess–it was likely to prevent the enemy from using the robots against them in case of defeat.

She didn’t know how to judge this measure; there must be reasons for this setup. However, this device had caused them significant trouble.

Unable to utilize the robots and drones, relying solely on themselves, they couldn’t venture far from the spacecraft, let alone go find Chen Xu.

As for piloting the spaceship, that was even more out of the question.

Could they only wait for Chen Xu to find them?

She was not content with that, nor did she want to be a burden on him, so she kept trying to find a solution. However, faced with these high-tech products, she felt completely at a loss on how to proceed.

“Drones and robots lose all signal and turn into piles of scrap metal once they leave a fifty-meter range from the spaceship,” Yang Jinxia continued.

Bai Jinxuan nodded; when Yang Jinxia proposed doing this experiment, she had consulted her opinion since everything on the spaceship was jointly owned by the two of them.

Jointly owned…

The thought seared her heart like a burn.

“This planet harbors many dangers, and we are both not skilled in combat. If we stray too far from the spaceship, even wild beasts would be difficult to handle.”

Yang Jinxia’s voice continued, if creatures like black birds exist, then other wild beasts living on this planet were only natural.

In this month, the cameras had captured several appearances of wild beasts, all of which were large and ferociously shaped, clearly not to be trifled with.

“So, we need to figure out how to utilize the robots and drones.”

Hearing this, Bai Jinxuan couldn’t help but ask, “Do you have a plan?”

Yang Jinxia said, “There are two ideas. One is to connect the robots with a data cable.”

“The problem is, we don’t have a data cable, and, according to the manual, they don’t have such ports,” Bai Jinxuan said. She hadn’t overlooked this method. However, without the necessary materials aboard the spaceship, it was impossible to create something from nothing.

“It’s not that it cannot be done; it’s just that it’s costly and complex.”

Yang Jinxia didn’t specify how to achieve this and instead mentioned the second method, “The other is using a signal relay. It can extend the wireless signal as long as we have enough relays, allowing us to cover a vast area.”

Bai Jinxuan was still puzzled, “We don’t seem to have this device on the spaceship, do we?”

This method wasn’t beyond her thoughts; it was just the lack of proper equipment that made it unattainable. This was their greatest challenge; the landing craft was not small, but the types of supplies were limited because their small team was only tasked with exploration.

If they could utilize the hundreds of robots and drones on the spaceship, they could accomplish much more, even building a camp would be simple.

This was nearly a dead end.

“I don’t need something like a repeater to achieve this functionality,” Yang Jinxia said with a smile. “Actually, the signal modules in robots and drones themselves have this capability. It’s like how a mobile phone can act as a signal bridge.”

Bai Jinxuan recalled carefully and shook her head, saying, “But the manual doesn’t mention this functionality.”

Yang Jinxia evidently had a plan in mind and explained, “That’s because it’s a user manual, which definitely doesn’t include developer options.”

Bai Jinxuan swallowed with some difficulty and asked, “Do you have a way to do it?”

“Fortunately, I’m quite familiar with robotics. I’ve already adjusted a robot, and now is a perfect time to demonstrate,” Yang Jinxia said, turning to the console and pressing several buttons.

Bai Jinxuan watched her skilled movements, wondering if she had once piloted a spacecraft.

Soon, on the camera facing the hatch, two robots appeared; she recognized them as construction robots. The spacecraft had many types of robots, over a dozen, each with different functionalities. They could be distinguished just by their appearances.

The two robots continued walking outwards, and as one approached the fifty meter signal decay threshold, it stopped. The other, however, kept walking beyond the fifty meter range and unlike the previous robot, it didn’t stop but continued moving forward.

“Success!”

She was both shocked and delighted. Just moments ago, she had been somewhat skeptical of Yang Jinxia’s claims, but now the proof was right before her eyes, undeniable.

The robot kept walking until it was nearly a hundred meters from the spaceship before it stopped.

This meant that the robots’ operational radius had doubled.

More importantly, it proved that Yang Jinxia’s method was feasible. With hundreds of robots connected, the operational range could reach several kilometers.

They had finally solved the first problem and taken a firm step forward.

Yet, she felt complex emotions since she hadn’t contributed to this solution.

…

“Why do I have a bad feeling about this?”

Chen Xu, looking at the supply ship that had landed nearby, propped his knuckles against his slightly aching brow and muttered to himself.

The supply ship was different from a landing craft, several times larger and bulkier, and it was unarmed with no combat capability and slower speed. It was purely for resupply purposes.

Over the past month, he had familiarized himself with the spacecraft’s operation manual. He was no longer clueless like at the beginning. According to the operation procedures in the manual, he first needed to perform data interfacing with the supply ship’s operating system.

This was somewhat troublesome because he was the only person left on the ship and had to input a long verification code. It took about ten minutes to successfully interface.

“A command from the mothership, opening now.”

An image appeared on the screen: an old man with graying hair spoke in a grave voice, “Members of the Second Expeditionary Team, this is the fleet commander. Due to an emergency situation, I am officially informing you that the mothership will soon evacuate this star system. In accordance with the Interstellar Common Colonization Act, you are hereby granted the highest colonization rights to colonize this planet. This supply ship contains a full colonization kit. I hope there will be a day when we meet again.”

The image then disappeared.

Chen Xu understood it clearly–they had been abandoned by the crew of the mothership because of an emergency.

Nice way to sugarcoat it.

He felt utterly unbothered and was even slightly amused.

Well, let them run; there was no reliance on them from the start.

“I wonder if this highest colonization authority comes with any benefits,” he thought to himself. Sitting at the main console, he started searching and quickly found the relevant clauses.

The clauses were lengthy, but he skimmed through quickly, his eyes lighting up.

This highest colonization authority was a great asset. Most importantly, it allowed access to the highest privileges of the spaceship systems and enabled the “Civilization Regeneration Plan.”

As for the colonization kit, simply put, it was a self-sustaining, small-scale manufacturing system. With good luck, sufficient time, and this kit, another technological civilization could be recreated.

Too awesome.

His eyes gleamed as he looked at the supply ship.
