Chapter 8 (2/2)
Along the flight route, Lin Dong found a miniature reactor from the list of resources and successively deployed over a hundred of them.
This type of reactor did not have a monitoring function. Its only function was to detect large objects flying past and give it to the commander to react.
Even though most of the time, meteorites were detected flying past the reactors.
However, the flight path was long and continuously displayed large objects flying past. It was very likely that the pursuers had arrived.
Moreover, this type of miniature reactor was difficult to detect and belonged to the passive type.
There were even better detectors. Unfortunately, the battleship did not have them.
Upon seeing that Lin Dong was operating in an orderly manner, and that his actions were extremely organized, unlike a newbie. Therefore, Lorne felt suspicious as he unintentionally asked, “Lin Dong, have you ever flown a battleship before?”
If Lin Dong answered that he did not try it before or did not give a reasonable explanation, then Lorne would have to interrogate him.
If Lorne let an enemy inherit his battleship, he would die sadly.
Lin Dong turned as he looked at Lorne, as if he did not know anything. Then, he explained, “I have flown a battleship in the virtual reality game.”
“I have played the ‘Sea of Stars’ for 3,000 hours, and I occasionally read the post of the Battleship Master.”
Lorne’s eyes flickered, as he relaxed. Later, he mocked himself for being suspicious.
He had come to this remote mining planet to find a random interstellar miner. If this was still a member of the Sylvester family, it would be too terrifying. How bad was his luck if he were to encounter a member of the Sylvester family in this mining planet?
He knew about the ‘Sea of Stars’. It was a holographic game.
It highly simulated the control of a Spark battleship. It was said that the simulation had reached 93% .
Players played the role of the commander of the battleship and commanded their battleships to join the designated battlefield to fight alone or join forces with other players.
To a certain extent, it could indeed improve the control level of the battleship and train the basic tactics of the players.
The youngsters and civilians who did not have access to the Spark battleship loved this game the most. The product was produced by a large technology company in a distant planet. It was said that the company was backed by a rank 7 civilization.
To be able to spread to a remote mining planet like planet A3999, Lorne could clearly feel the strength of that technology company.
Of course, without any special encounters, commoners would still be commoners.
Upon seeing that Lin Dong was still looking at him and waiting for a response, Lorne nodded his head faintly. “It’s alright. Looks like you have gained something out of it. You have commanded well.”
“Thank you for your compliment. Luckily I didn’t waste any of my precious time.” Lin Dong smiled as he felt happy.
“Based on my gaming experience, I’ll not stay in the same place for too long. I’ll remain hidden for some time and use some anti-reconnaissance methods. I can’t completely conceal myself, but I can also create trouble for the enemy.”
“I won’t just surrender.”
Lorne nodded. He did not have any other emotions as he spoke, “It is better than not doing anything.”
“I hope that you will always remain cautious and focused. The Sylvester family is far more terrifying than what you have expected. Not only does it show off in terms of power, but it also shows off their methods and unscrupulous behavior.”
“However, what I find strange is that there are over 10 million Nano-bomb robots in your body. Once you kill the pursuers behind you, your danger will be eliminated. Why do you want to escape?”
“It doesn’t feel good to have 10 million bombs in your body, right?”
Lin Dong laughed bitterly. “I also wish to kill those pursuers. However, I’m not sure how many people are chasing us. I don’t know how their battleships are, whether they have reinforcements or not . There’s a lot of uncertainty. It’s too dangerous to wait for them at the same place. Once I understand their situation, I’ll have greater confidence. During this period, I’ll be able to familiarize myself with the Thunder Flash as well.”
“That’s why I was so focused on running away. I thought it was stupid to wait for them.”
“Excellent. It seems that you didn’t become arrogant just because you became the commander of the Thunder Flash. This will give you more possibilities in the future.”
Lorne praised and did not ask any more questions.
