really.

As a subsidiary agency of the Academy of Sciences, the Resource Management Bureau governs all resources of the People's Federation, of which mineral resources only account for a relatively large proportion.

And they, mineral prospectors, are at the grassroots level, no matter how small they are.

To say that they are members of the Academy of Sciences is really flattering.

Hansent's lips trembled slightly: "But, but..."

That's an ice giant planet!

The fear of the unknown is deeply ingrained in human DNA.

Thinking of the beautiful giant planet glowing with crystal blue, Hansent felt a chill in his back.

On the earth, in the solar system, in the universe...

No matter where you are, beauty often means danger.

Hope shook his head slowly: "It's nothing."

"Opportunities always coexist with risks."

"At least, I don't want to be an obscure mineral prospector anymore."

Looking at Hope's determined eyes, Hansent felt dazed for a while.

It seems that... when they first met, Hope had the same firm look on his face and vowed to himself that one day he would work in the Academy of Sciences.

Decades passed by in a flash.

Hope is still the same Hope.

But what about him?

Hansent subconsciously reviewed his ordinary life.

There is nothing worthy of praise.

He was silent for a moment, and his originally dull eyes gradually became sharp.

"Have you decided?"

"Yes." Hope nodded firmly without any hesitation, "Sorry, you may have to complete the future mineral exploration tasks alone."

Hansent didn't say anything, he just turned around and walked towards the back room.

Looking at Hansent's back, Hope showed a bit of guilt in his eyes.

"Feel sorry."

He lowered his head and murmured again.

Then, he turned around and walked resolutely towards the door.

"drop!"

A crisp reminder sounded, and the door opened.

"etc!"

Just as Hope was about to go out, Hansent's voice suddenly came from behind.

Hope turned around subconsciously.

When he saw the suitcase in Hansent's hand, he couldn't help but froze on the spot.

"you……"

"What are you doing standing still?" Hanssen strode to Hope's side and gestured in the direction of the Academy of Sciences headquarters with his chin, "Let's go!"

"Wait, wait!" Hope stuttered, "You, how did you..."

"You're right." Hansent took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.

"I don't want to be this obscure mineral prospector anymore."

"I also want to take this opportunity to build a better future."

"I think Professor Lu will never let us die, right?"

As he said that, Hansent smiled self-deprecatingly.

Hope's originally gloomy eyes became brighter at this moment.

He didn't speak, he just raised his hand, put his arm around Hansent's shoulder, and shook it hard.

Everything is left unsaid.

…

Academy of Sciences.

"Zero, how is the registration status?"

Lu Yongchang's voice sounded in the biology laboratory.

"Professor, so far, no one has signed up for this project." Zero responded quickly, and at the same time unfolded a holographic image showing statistical data.

When he saw the hundreds of millions of readers displayed on the statistics interface, Lu Yongchang couldn't help but frowned.

"What's going on? Why doesn't anyone sign up?"

Mao Zhengzhi on the side leaned his head, glanced at the holographic image in front of Lu Yongchang, and let out a light tut.

"The requirements are too high."

"There are not many mineral explorers with more than 50 years of experience."

"And it's such a hard-working job. It's probably hard to find someone like this."

"Why don't you lower your requirements?"

Lu Yongchang shook his head and refused without hesitation: "No!"

"Entering ice giant planets for exploration is inherently a highly dangerous operation. Without sufficient experience in mineral exploration, it will only lead to extremely bad endings!"

"What about...unmanned driving?" Mao Zhengzhi pondered for a moment, then added again, "If no one signs up."

Hearing this, Lu Yongchang's eyes showed some confusion.

The reason why we choose real people is because compared with robots and artificial intelligence, humans have more flexible independent judgment capabilities.

When encountering some extreme situations that have never occurred before, experienced drivers can rely on their own experience to handle emergency situations.

This is something that Zero cannot do no matter what.

"if……"

"If there is really no one to sign up, just choose driverless driving."

Speaking of this, Lu Yongchang sighed helplessly, and then turned his attention to the holographic projection in front of him again.

In the projection, there is a picture inside an independent gravity cabin.

In the picture, four well-proportioned men look like they are living their lives naturally.

At the top of the screen, there is a small red font.

[Equivalent gravity: 2g]

Lu Yongchang carefully checked every physical examination data, his eyes shining with satisfaction.

Magna Visceral Omentum Gene and Magna Body Strengthening Hormone are very effective.

At least, it seems that people who have accepted this human enhancement experiment can easily live on the surface of Dawn Star without the help of exoskeleton armor and medical cabins.

As for the issue of atmospheric pressure...

After testing, these genetically enhanced personnel can live normally at 10 standard atmospheres.

Although the current external environment of Dawn Star is far from up to standard,

But Lu Yongchang believes that as time goes by, Atmosphere Transformer 1 will sooner or later transform the atmosphere of Dawn Star into an environment suitable for human habitation!

"Professor, someone has signed up."

Zero's voice suddenly sounded, interrupting Lu Yongchang's thoughts.

"Oh?" A hint of joy flashed across Lu Yongchang's face, and he kept saying, "Who is it? Do the qualifications meet the standards?"

"After comprehensive inspection, it meets the requirements you set."

"Okay! Great!" After hearing Zero's response, Lu Yongchang rubbed his hands excitedly, "Show me their information."

"By the way, Zero, let them come to the biology laboratory to find me!"

"If you want to explore ice giant planets, your physical fitness is not enough!"

…

Hall on the first floor of the Academy of Sciences.

Hope stood there with an uneasy expression, looking straight at the introduction of the ice giant planet in the holographic projection on the side.
