Chapter 127 On The Same Boat (1/2)
Lan Xuanyu had improved in leaps and bounds compared to three years ago when he went giddy from sitting in the space warship. Three years later, where he was able to control his own warship through the simulation pod.
Yin Tianfan had taught him to pilot the space warship and imparted knowledge pertaining to a spaceship, but had yet to teach him to pilot a spaceship.
He had also informed Lan Xuanyu that a space warship was a miniature version of a spaceship and that many spaceships’ styles of combat were developed from space warships. Grasping the basics of piloting a space warship well would build up a strong foundation in becoming an excellent spaceship commander.
As Lan Xuanyu continued to learn, he began to enjoy riding space warships. But at the moment, he had never truly experienced riding a real space warship, only the simulated version in the simulation pod. Yin Tianfan had promised him that at the age of 20, he would let Lan Xuanyu have a real taste of the marvel of space warships and let him pilot one for real.
“Mommy, look. That is Star Luo Mark I Mothership, she is our Federation’s largest type of mothership with a length span of 3200 meters––it’s basically a small city. She is equipped with the most advanced soul guidance core response formation. If she is to focus her firepower, she is capable of destroying a planet. So cool!” Lan Xuanyu voiced out excitedly beside Nan Cheng.
Nan Cheng listened on with a smile while Lan Xiao continued to guide their son. “What is that spaceship over there? That smaller one.”
“Dad, that is a Mark I Mothership’s guardian vessel, which are over a thousand meters long, it should be the Dragon King rank guardian vessel. They are also very powerful and are capable of long-distance attacks. An interstellar fleet can only have one star-rated Mothership, and at most four Dragon King rank guardian vessels. These five ships form the core strength of the entire fleet.”
“Yes, that is right. It seems like my son will truly become a spaceship commander in the future. Daddy will wait for the day that he can board the ship you’re in charge of.” Lan Xiao smiled.
Lan Xuanyu frowned and replied, “Dad, according to the rules of the military, family members are unable to board the spaceship.”
“Hahaha, son, you’re already enforcing military rules onto yourself already?” Lan Xiao disturbed him. Lan Xuanyu was only twelve and needed to know how much longer it would take to become a spaceship commander.

Lan Xuanyu laughed as well. “Teacher said that we must have high standards and strict demands on ourselves. Daddy, I will definitely become a commander.”
Nan Cheng asked, “Xuanyu, tell Mommy. What do you like about spaceships?”
Lan Xuanyu replied, “Because spaceships are strong! T.V. shows did mention that the interstellar spaceships are the Federation’s strongest weapons. Following the advancement of Soul Guidance Technology, a Soul Master’s individual strength is no longer able to influence the battlefield, and the true powerhouse is the interstellar fleets. No matter how strong a Soul Master is, they are unable to withstand the main cannon of a spaceship. I want to pilot the strongest and biggest power.”
Lan Xiao held Nan Cheng in his arms and replied, “See how grown up my son is? This is a very far-reaching dream, so if you want to do it, do it to the best of your abilities. Daddy will support you.”
They never thought that in their son’s eye, the reason for wanting to be a spaceship pilot was because the spaceship was the Federation’s strongest weapon. What if it was not? Would he change his mind?
The family of three continued chattering happily and entered the waiting area. After a series of checks, they strolled onto the spacecraft with ease. Of course, due to their economic situation, they were the most ordinary of passengers.
It was his second time boarding an interstellar flight. Still, from the abundance of knowledge in his three years, Lan Xuanyu was no longer at a loss towards the spacecraft. He looked around and out of the window as he thought to himself, that is where the Soul Guidance core response is, that’s the shooter and that’s the main power cabin. En, this civilian spacecraft is, in fact, a miniature version of the military’s taotie rank transport ship. En, it should be one-tenth of the size of the original transport ship.
He had not had a real rest in all of the three years, but he felt that it was worth it. The feeling of being able to apply what he learned was nice.
When all the economy class passengers had boarded the spacecraft, one last group of people boarded. Eight tall bodyguards protected a mysterious person in the center, who was covered in a hood and a mask. Even the lady figure beside the figure donned a mask.
