The Edge of the Star Field

The final result

Countless gazes converge on the holographic projection in the air, creating a tense atmosphere throughout the information center. People's hearts are filled with prayers for a favorable outcome.

Zhou Ping stands beneath the holographic projection and quickly finds his name.

"Zhou Ping, ID card number 10004230013, assigned department: Food Safety Department."

"Before the end of today's work, report to Room 36 on the 477th floor."

"Food Safety Department..." Zhou Ping breathes a sigh of relief. "Not bad, luck is on my side."

The Food Safety Department, as the name suggests, is a department dealing with food. Although the treatment may not be great, it offers stability and safety.

Zhou Ping turns around slowly, a pleased expression on his face. "Luck is not bad. How about you, Su Yan?"

Su Yan points to the holographic projection in the air, smiling brightly. "I got into university."

"Impressive!" Zhou Ping praises, quickly scanning the information in the direction Su Yan pointed.

"Su Yan, ID card number 10005137896, report to Central University on September 7, 100 years of the Wandering Century."

Zhou Ping comments with a hint of envy, "If your academic performance is excellent, many departments might reserve you before you graduate."

"Haha, who knows what will happen in the future!" Su Yan responds with a smile.

At this moment, others like Zhong Chenming, Liu Weiyi, Chu Xinxin, and more see their allocation results on the holographic projection – expressions of joy, disappointment, or acceptance vary.

"Lin Fan, how about you? Did you pass the assessment for the 'External Operations Legion'?" Zhou Ping pats Lin Fan's shoulder.

Lin Fan, with a smile on his face, replies, "I passed!"

"Lin Fan, ID card code 10010130018, report to Room 13 on the 623rd floor before the end of today."

This spaceship has a total of 700 floors, and floors 600 to 630 belong to the "External Operations Legion." Therefore, going to the 623rd floor means Lin Fan has successfully passed the assessment and joined the "External Operations Legion."

"Let's go, report in and get to know your colleagues as soon as possible."

People gradually leave the information center, whether satisfied or not, the results are final. Article 6 of the "Human Charter" states: "After the announcement of work assignments, if one fails to report before the specified time, half a month's energy quota will be deducted."

Therefore, even with channels to transfer to other positions, reporting comes first, then attempting to move. It's challenging because once the "Administrative Department" discovers, the consequences are severe.

Lin Fan waves to Zhou Ping and walks towards the other side of the 75th floor with Su Yan.

Su Yan's home is there, and there's an elevator leading to the "External Operations Legion."

Su Yan walks silently behind Lin Fan for a while, then bites her lip and speaks softly, "You... be sure to stay safe!"

Lin Fan remains silent, walking forward as if he didn't hear her.

Su Yan opens her mouth to repeat herself but ultimately sighs inwardly.

Silently walking for a while, the two reach the third elevator area on the 75th floor.

Lin Fan presses the elevator switch, and the elevator on the right opens its doors.

Su Yan watches Lin Fan enter the elevator and opens her mouth to say something.

After Lin Fan enters, he swipes his ID card and presses the switch to the 623rd floor.

The elevator doors slowly close, and Lin Fan waves goodbye.

The floor numbers change continuously, and after an unknown amount of time, the elevator stops on the 623rd floor.

The doors open, and Lin Fan walks out, looking around, checking room numbers.

Unlike the "Living Area," the 623rd floor belonging to the "External Operations Legion" doesn't have many individual rooms. It is designed as an open space with several large "training grounds" separated by glass only in some corners.

Lin Fan quickens his pace and soon arrives outside Room 13.

On the alloy-made door hangs a sign that reads "Investigation." Lin Fan speculates that it belongs to a detachment within the External Operations Legion.

Without hesitation, Lin Fan raises his hand and knocks on the door.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

A slightly hoarse female voice comes from inside, "Please come in."

Lin Fan turns the door handle and pushes the door open, walking in.

During this process, Lin Fan roughly scans the entire room, taking in the furnishings.

This room is much larger than his home, but the specific size is hard to determine. In the innermost position is a spacious desk with a computer, pen holder, and folders. Next to it is a comfortable chair facing the desk.

On the right, against the wall, is a large bookshelf with various reference books, documents, and archives. At the top of the bookshelf is a pot of green plants, whether real or fake is unclear.

The central area, including the left side, is a lounge area with two sofas, soft cushions, a few small pillows, and a coffee table in the middle.

In addition, there are two tightly closed doors in the room.

At this moment, a man stands up from the desk position.

He looks to be in his thirties, tall and sturdy, wearing a short-sleeved shirt with camouflage patterns. The muscles on his arms bulge with strength.

"Are you the new team member reporting?" The tall man smiles warmly, his voice booming.

Lin Fan takes a step forward, loudly responding, "Yes!"

The tall man walks out from behind the desk, strides powerfully to the sofa, and says, "Let me introduce myself. I am your team leader, Ji Xuanwu."

"Hello, Team Leader!" Lin Fan looks very happy.

"Because our team has just been established, there are few members. Besides you and me, there's only one more person."

As he speaks, the alloy door is pushed open, and a woman in her twenties walks in.

"Perfect, let me introduce her. She is the third team member, Sarah." Ji Xuanwu waves his hand, signaling Sarah to come over.

Sarah, with blonde hair and blue eyes, well-defined features, and a height of 1.7 meters, looks stunning despite the loose camouflage short sleeves. Her long and straight legs are particularly eye-catching.

"Hello." Sarah greets warmly.

"Hello." Lin Fan responds with equal enthusiasm.

Ji Xuanwu laughs and points to the sofa, saying, "Don't stand, sit down and chat. By the way, introduce yourself first."

"Hello, everyone. My name is Lin Fan, 16 years old this year. Please take care of me!" Lin Fan finishes his self-introduction and casually chooses a single sofa to sit down.

Ji Xuanwu sits on the sofa opposite Lin Fan, looks around, and then says with a smile, "Let me first introduce some basic information about our team, and then if you have any questions, feel free to ask."
