Han Ruoxi also flicked a switch, resetting her Electric Power Device to safe mode. "I'm ready, too. We can leave whenever!"
"You guys are pretty fast!" Bai Lin said, stowing the data terminal in his hand and getting to his feet. "I've uploaded the recon data to the main system. Command should be able to see our combat record soon!"
