Space Odyssey from Abandoned Mining Space Station

Chapter 1061: Chapter 302: Departure_4

"You can still keep living freely. Even if we’ve got some of your data, we absolutely won’t interfere."

"Then let’s leave it at that."

An Wuping didn’t ask anything more and directly lay down in the device.

The examination process was very long.

It wasn’t until five or six hours later that An Wuping finally saw the light of day again.

And Niu Xin also brought a piece of good news.

All of An Wuping’s tests had been passed; everything he’d said was confirmed to be fine.

At the same time, the examination of that Heart-Gathering Spirit Pearl An Wuping had left behind earlier was almost done; they could also confirm that Psychics could use a Heart-Gathering Spirit Pearl to obtain other people’s Spiritual Energy.

A face alone really couldn’t prove anything in this era, so Chen Ming could fully shake off any suspicion of having ties with Zuo Jing.

At this point, Niu Xin also formally extended an invitation to An Wuping on behalf of the president of the Association.

Liang Fei happened to be right next to them and explained to An Wuping—who probably didn’t know the Association’s real situation—what the Association essentially was, and the possibility of joining two factions at the same time.

So of course An Wuping agreed.

After that, Liang Fei also issued a formal invitation to An Wuping.

The result was, unsurprisingly, the same.

It was also at this time that Chen Ming learned that Liang Fei’s real name was Liang Fei.

And that Li Weiqi, still lying in the hospital, had the real name Li Wei.

To be honest, when he heard these two names, Chen Ming could barely hold it together.

How come these two Psychics from the Audan Star Realm picked fake names the same way he did.

Awkward as it was, it also made Chen Ming feel a little closer to them.

And after the tests were done.

Chen Ming didn’t stay there much longer, because Liang Fei hurriedly took him from the Association’s stronghold hospital; he wanted to go back to the Audan Star Realm.

Chen Ming, not understanding, asked, "In such a rush to go back? The medical conditions here should be better than in Audan, right?"

"They are better, but not by that much. Mainly, there’s something going on over in Audan that we need to return for."

"What’s going on?"

"Preparing for the Mechanical Race war."

"War?"

Given An Wuping’s status, he obviously couldn’t come into contact with matters of the Mechanical Race war, so Liang Fei explained the basic background to Chen Ming.

Then he added, "Our Audan drum unit may not share a border with the Mechanical Race Star Realm, there are still one or two Edge Star Realms between us and the Mechanical Race Star Realm, but it’s still too close to ever escape; the war is very close to us."

"And my superiors heard that this time Psychics are allowed to participate in the war operations... You might not know this, but in previous wars Psychics were always restricted."

"The fact that Psychics are allowed to join this operation might mean there’s something special about it."

"So I have to go back."

Chen Ming had already heard from quite a few people that the Empire was planning some special moves involving Psychics in the Mechanical Race war.

Hearing it one more time didn’t make much difference.

And this was actually pretty good.

He’d been wondering what method An Wuping could use to get involved in the Mechanical Race war.

Looks like if he just followed Audan’s arrangements, it wouldn’t be long before An Wuping might end up running off to the Mechanical Race Star Realm.

On An Wuping’s side, there probably wasn’t much to worry about in the short term.

Chen Ming could put more of his attention into the Fourteenth Legion’s prosthetic body.

Right after An Wuping left the stronghold together with Liang Fei.

Still at the stronghold, Niu Xin watched the shadow of the Shuttle Boat in the sky and said into the terminal in his hand, which was connected to the president, "He’s gone, headed for Audan. I’ll sync the test results to you right away."

"Anything worth mentioning?"

"Yes."

Looking at the terminal, Niu Xin said, "We still couldn’t find anything of value from the shadow at his heart position. His heart is hiding his secret."

The president said, "Everyone has secrets. What else?"

"His genes are also rather special. Even in humanoid form, he isn’t purely human. And after he enters his mutation state, his genes undergo new changes; you could say that before and after the mutation he’s almost like two different creatures, but neither of them is human."

"What determines whether someone is a person isn’t their genes, it’s their consciousness. Anything else?"

"No, nothing. No problems at all."

"Then that can be considered a good outcome. We can place our trust in An Wuping."
