The Dark Star Alliance's Cosmic Alliance was vast, and compared to it, a place like Phantom Spirit Star was a mere witch meeting a great witch, so what was there to fear about contact.
Under Zhang Xiaoman's command, the Icehail quickly reached the location where the probe had vanished earlier.
It was a planet with a thin atmosphere, mostly covered with yellow dust viewed from space, with no satellites evident and no towns detected within its initial scans.
"Commander, we've found it. The lost probe is 200,000 kilometers ahead. Should we attempt recovery?"
An astronaut said.
Zhang Xiaoman nodded.
"Use the tractor beam, try to pull it back."
As his voice fell, a beam of light from the Icehail's front shone onto the probe suspended in space, causing it to rapidly move closer to the ship.
"Successfully retrieved! Attempting signal recovery for the probe...Recovery failed! We need to inspect the situation on-site!"
Two astronauts ran toward the recovery bay.
