“In that case, how should I deal with them this time?” Lin Dong crossed his legs as he sat on the commander’s seat, deep in thought.
It was definitely not possible to start a conflict or to deliberately take revenge. It was also impossible to change his mind at the last minute.
This was because Lorne had escaped and he was seriously injured. There were still people chasing after him. Once Lin Dong’s location and identity were exposed, he would have to start his escape again. This time, he would not have the chance to make the same mistake again.
Lin Dong could not allow those people to follow him. If they continued to follow him, it would increase his risk, who was trying to hide from them.
What he needed was stability and a low profile.
Lin Dong was still trying to think of a solution when 8 figures appeared in the communication network. One after another, hypocritical voices sounded out.
“Isn’t this the best miner in our mining area? Lin Dong, which route do you plan to take this time?”
“We’re trying to survive here. Can you give us some pointers?”
“Brother Lin will definitely help us, how could he disagree? If he doesn’t give us any pointers, wouldn’t he look down on all of us miners?”
“Sigh. Follow Lin Dong later. Don’t fall behind.”
They were talking to themselves as they did not hide their intentions at all.
As Lin Dong heard these voices, fake smiles surfaced in Lin Dong’s mind, and he immediately felt nauseous.
These people clearly wanted to snatch his minerals and ores, yet they were able to say it in such a grand manner.
However, he had thought of a good idea at that moment. After entering the mining area, he would not allow these people to catch up to his speed. He would shake them off with his speed. He would ensure that this period of time was stable. After which, he would first inherit the Spark battleship.
Later, he would have more choices whether he wanted to take revenge or ignore them.
“Let’s see if you all can keep up with my speed,” Lin Dong replied. Then, he turned off the communication network and only left the observer channel.
It had attracted quite a lot of attention among the miners. However, no one stepped forward to say anything.
As a low-level miner, as long as no one died, the higher-ups could not be bothered to care about it. Furthermore, the mining companies only cared about the quality of the minerals.
At the same time, the 8 people who were laughing in the communication network privately contacted each other.
“F*ck, he’s arrogant. Who Is he looking down on? We’re flying a rented mining spaceship. Could it be that his skills are better than ours? Are we still unable to keep up with him?”
“That’s right. This time, not only do we have to dig out the mining area that he found, we also have to snatch his minerals.”
“He could be lucky for once or twice, but his minerals and ores are always better than ours. There must be something fishy going on.”
“If we manage to grasp Lin Dong’s secret, we’ll all be rich.”
“Don’t make it too ugly on the surface. Let’s talk after we enter the mining area. If we don’t get something good out of it, We’ll make him pay the price.”
“Just wait. The safety period is about to arrive. Everyone, be careful. The airspace of the mining area of the asteroid belt is very complicated. If an accident occurs when a ship capsizes, rescue might not be able to arrive in time. Moreover, Lin Dong always comes out very late. It’s likely that he’ll enter deep into the mining area. Don’t fail to get any benefits and end up with a shipwreck and death.”
A bald-headed man spoke. He was well-known among them. No one dared to make a sound after he spoke.
The deeper one went into the mining area, the more complicated the environment became. Of course, the quality of the mineral was also better.
Not many people had gone deep into the mining area, so it was well preserved. As long as one entered safely, one could find better minerals and ores in there. Miners did not even need to spend any effort to dig a hole to search for minerals. All one needed to do was to ensure the safety of the journey back and forth.
They had also taken a risk by following Lin Dong this time around. However, they were blinded by greed, so why would they care about those things?
