The small flying ship, with a maximum rated capacity of 500 people, carrying Chen Fei and his group, slowly lifted vertically from the embarkation bridge beside Base 1's spaceport, accelerating at a height of 100 meters off the ground, heading directly north.
The new elemental annihilation bomb definitely cannot be tested on Blue Star, and releasing its power near Base 1 on Emerald Star is even less advisable. The former could unnecessarily attract the attention of the sovereignties, while the latter could potentially cause some degree of damage to Base 1, as there are resource extraction points near the base, and railroads and highways crisscross, linking the distant branches under construction and the future base's direction.
The test site chosen is 2500 kilometers directly north of Base 1, and the small flying ship is expected to arrive in an hour.
