Adam and the others were met by a group of soldiers as soon as their ship docked on a platform inside the mothership. The soldiers wore full-body suits with helmets as if they were going to enter a radioactive area.
"Sorry about this, Miss Liu, but this is something that we must abide by," Haozu said, and even though he was Liu's uncle, he used honorifics when he was talking with her in front of other people.
Liu nodded at Hoazu's words and followed the instructions given by the imperial soldiers.
After that, Haozu and his crew were also locked somewhere but Adam and the others weren't made aware of this.
"Only the three of you?" One of the soldiers asked, observing the group consisting of Adam, Zax, and Liu.
Of course, they had already searched the whole ship but they didn't find anything out of the ordinary.
"Are you blind?" Adam muttered with an unfazed face. He looked like he was displeased by everything that happened.
