The night deepened.
The boy Badaka carefully approached a massive object within the construction debris.
The thing was round and plump, like a giant hot air balloon, yet overall it looked like a large cargo ship.
Faint white lines occasionally flashed across its dark shell, full of sci-fi vibes.
"How is it?" Xiaomei's voice came through the walkie-talkie.
"It's still in the interval period, I haven't seen the proton phosphorescence." Badaka replied softly.
"According to my calculations, it's still seventeen minutes. You can leave yourself five minutes to return, be safe." Xiaomei advised.
"Got it." Badaka nodded unconsciously, as if seeing his sister's solemn advice.
Snapping back to reality, he quickly approached the large, dark object.
Since the disaster Proton Sea erupted five years ago, this was the first time he had seen such a massive and complete artificial construct on the surface.
Before long, he was within twenty meters of the big object.
