Chen Weimin was very surprised to hear Zhao Yi say that he wanted to join the interstellar mission of the starship, but after thinking about it carefully, it actually made sense.
The starship was indeed Zhao Yi's design, and all the core technology was his own research.
Interstellar travel sounds incredibly exciting, so it was normal for Zhao Yi to want to be involved.
Many people would probably want to join in, even if it was very dangerous and they might even have to sacrifice their lives. There would still be many eager to be part of it.
It would definitely be a great mission, a grand journey.
Zhao Yi indeed felt that way; witnessing humanity leave the solar system with his own eyes would be an astonishing and glorious event. However, he did not actually have the intention of paying with his life. He merely wanted to accompany the mission because he could direct the work and use his system capabilities to preemptively address safety issues.
