1299 Underground Burrow

"There, bombard the area before we land," said Domingo as he pointed out an area through the front window. 

"Roger that," the captain replied. A fleet of unmanned drones were released as the ship entered the atmosphere. To create a sand landing zone, the drones were dispatched to deploy a carpet bombing. After three series of bombing and making sure that there were no signs of life in the area, the Corvette class ship and four remaining Cruisers landed. 

All ships then quickly opened the rear hatch and deployed a small fleet of Valsalrian soldiers. Based on procedure, these soldiers were tasked to make sure that the area outside the landing zone was secured before the main party would be deployed; in this case, Jiang Fei and Lieutenant Domingo. There was a possibility of several bugs remaining having burrowed after the carpet bombing.
