It took Guo Xuyang over a day to reach Zhang Li's spaceship with Xin Dali and the others.
"Zhang Li, are you guys alright?"
Xin Dali called out to Zhang Li.
"Who is this?"
Zhang Li clearly didn't recognize Xin Dali's voice.
"It's Xin Dali, we're here with Guo Xuyang to find you."
"Captain? That's great.
I thought we'd never get back."
Zhang Li was overjoyed upon hearing Xin Dali.
"There were some problems at the ground base, they specifically sent Guo Xuyang and his team to rescue us."
Xin Dali said.
"When are we going back?
Our supplies are running low."
"Guo Xuyang's plan is to find another team before we head back."
"Another team? Didn't they return long ago?
We heard the base ordered them back when we arrived."
"Is that so? I haven't heard about that.
Could they have encountered some difficulties?
Shall I inform Guo Xuyang about it later?"
"Captain, you should contact him.
The other team left over half a month ago."
"We'll contact him later."
Xin Dali hung up and immediately contacted Guo Xuyang.
"Yangzi, Zhang Li just mentioned that another team went back half a month ago."
"Half a month ago?
Then how could they say there were three teams outside?
Do you know who was leading that team?"
"I don't.
If you hadn't told me Zhang Li was on this spaceship, I wouldn't have known who was in this team.
Our operations are classified."
"In that case, we should prepare to return."
Guo Xuyang said after some thought.
"Will two days be enough for the journey back?"
"It's hard to say.
We can't locate the base on Earth right now.
We're like headless flies, not knowing where to fly."
"Then what should we do?
Why don't you follow me?
I'll take you back."
"That would be best. Can your spaceship locate the base?"
"Don't ask about that.
As long as you follow me closely, we'll definitely get back."
"Alright then. I'll inform Zhang Li.
But Zhang Li just said his supplies are running low, I wonder how many more days he can last."
"Then ask him, or I can go over there."
Guo Xuyang said.
"Okay." Xin Dali hung up the call.
"Master, our supplies aren't much either." Kasa said.
"I've got it covered.
I prepared a lot when I came out before, there's even wine and drinks.
Besides, that beef, mutton, and venison are all edible."
Guo Xuyang said.
"I forgot about that."
"Get ready, adjust the navigation.
We'll head back once Xin Dali and Zhang Li have sorted things out."
"Okay."
Kasa said, tapping a few times on the screen with its dog paws.
"Master, the route has been set."
"Very good."
Before Guo Xuyang could finish speaking, Xin Dali's call came through.
"How is it? Can Zhang Li and his team hold out until we get back?"
Guo Xuyang asked.
"They can last for another two days, but if it's longer, they won't be able to.
Someone on board has a fever, I don't know what's wrong."
"A fever?
A fever on a spaceship would be life-threatening!
What's going on?"
"Zhang Li didn't explain clearly, just said someone has a fever."
"I see. Tell that person to take some medicine to suppress it for now.
I've already set up the program, we can head back now."
Guo Xuyang said, glancing at Zhang Li's spaceship.
That person wasn't just feverish.
They had been invaded by an unknown creature.
"Never mind, just follow us closely.
Don't worry about Zhang Li anymore."
Guo Xuyang quickly said.
"Why? Aren't we going to check on them?"
"Zhang Li and the others have likely been invaded by an unknown creature.
Let's leave quickly."
Xin Dali was startled upon hearing Guo Xuyang's words.
"How could this happen?"
"I don't know either.
I can't tell what kind of thing has infested them.
We can't worry about them anymore.
You must follow my spaceship closely.
We absolutely must return immediately."
After speaking, Guo Xuyang had Kasa press the button.
He knew that things he couldn't comprehend might very well bury him and Xin Dali in this vast universe.
