During the flight from Orlando to Texas, Brad held on hard and deliberately pretended that he was not afraid of going on a space trip.
"Why are we going to Mars again? How long will it take to go there and come back?" Brad asked.
Elon Musk smiled and explained, "It takes six months for us to go to Mars, and we'll have to stay there for 26 months after we arrive."
Brad began to curse his heart out loudly.
"What the hell are you going to do for 26 months on Mars? There are no women on Mars, and there is no need to fight a war! Don't tell me you want to build a base there. I'll be returning in a week!"
Musk laughed and said, "Mr. Howard, here's the thing, we're going to Mars when we're the closest to it, but once we're there, we would already be extremely far away from Earth."
"Out of consideration for the economic cost, we have to wait until Mars is closest to Earth again before we can return. It will take 26 months for Mars to be closest to Earth again. So, we have to stay for 26 months."
Jordan patted Brad's shoulder and said, "Mr. Howard, it has only been slightly over two years. You're still so young. What are you afraid of? Just take it as training."
Brad tried to break free from Jordan, and he said, "I'm not going anymore! Quickly send me back!"
Jordan said hostilely, "Brad Howard, it seems that you haven't gotten a clear idea of the situation yet! Now, you
have to go there regardless of whether you want to or not!"
"Well, unless you explain why you did that!"
Brad was furious. He was not only battered with injuries, but he was also unarmed and surrounded by Jordan's underlings.
His cell phone had been confiscated, so there was no way he could contact his family.
Even if his parents knew about it, they could do nothing because it was Musk's territory!
In the state, the Howards could still fight Jordan. They wouldn't be able to deal with him anywhere else!
Brad gritted his teeth and exclaimed, "Good! Let's go to Mars then! The Howards are definitely not going to be afraid of you bastards!"
Brad often called Jordan a bastard, and his eyes would be full of murderous intent whenever he saw him.
Jordan knew that Brad definitely had a strong grudge against him.
However, he couldn't recall when he had ever offended him.
"Bring him down!"
Jordan issued the orders, and Brad was taken away by two people. Since he was going to Mars, he was arranged to be in the same room as the astronauts.
One of the astronauts was a Canadian from Quebec who was fluent in English and French. Brad was also good at both languages, so they started chatting.
Brad asked, "Hey, is what Musk said about moving to
Mars reliable? Will there be any danger if we go to Mars this time?"
While eating, the Canadian astronaut said, "Don't worry, man, we will be very safe. I can guarantee that I'll bring you back safely."
Brad grinned and thought secretly, 'Jordan Steele, I slept with your wife, and you chose to send me to Mars just because you don't dare to kill me, but when the time comes, you won't dare to touch me again!"
"I'll treat it as a vacation then!"
Brad was elated as he felt that this outcome was better than getting killed, castrated, and insulted.
Those few people who had offended Jordan before, such as Tyler and Cayden, did not end well.
However, at this moment, the astronaut suddenly changed his voice. "However, the longer we stay on Mars, the more dangers we face."
"Danger? What are the dangers!?" Brad hurriedly asked.
The astronaut explained, "We are flying in space, and due to the lack of exercise and weightlessness, there is a decrease in the quality and strength of the skeletal machine. When we return, the muscle strength will drop by 40%."
