Following the cessation of the Hope’s power and consequently life support and anti-gravitational systems, even the Barracks was sent into alarm. However, Guang Zhen’s intervention quickly brought the situation back under control. The army was quickly corralled under Guang Zhen’s leadership.
Guang Zhen immediately gave out spacesuits and weapons, but unfortunately, the spacesuits were of the older version. Their flexibility and defense paled considerably behind the aerospace combat suit prototype 2s; the weapons were normal rifles, and those unfamiliar with using them in space would end up getting injured by the impressive recoil, an effect that would greatly harm one’s accuracy.
Regardless, Guang Zhen had to give them out because they were still better than facing the unknown threat empty-handed. With the Hope on complete shut-down, as acting captain, he needed the army to help him find out what was happening.
