Chapter 223 The First to Leave a Sinking shi+p

”E the bridge ”There isn't even blood There is just nobody here”

”I was not expecting for the normally anyway” Said Daniel with aaround ”Where is the sound sphere?”

Instead of responding, the woman turned to look at Daniel with a face marked with anxiousness, and said ”No you don't understand If the captain isn't here then” She then let her voice die in her throat, leaving the rest to Daniel's interpretation

Soon enough, Daniel's eyes narrowed, and he barked furiously while punching one of the chairs into dust ”They left already Pieces of shi+t!”

The woman had already told him that the captain had a method to abandon the shi+p That method consisted in a fist sized shalop, which contained a pocket di extreerous like an attack from pirates, or members of an hostile faction were to happen, an announcenated area, would be sent through the entire shi+p Once regrouped, the passengers could then enter this shalop, and escape along with the rest of the crew

The woman had specifically told Daniel that there was only one of these shalops on board, and for a simple reason It was near impossible for the shi+p to be destroyed by natural causes The protection of the shi+p was ainst the objects found floating through space, and if sohted so that would definitely destroy the shi+p, they would then have the tiether

On the other hand, the shalop was a stealthy method to escape from human attacks, and it was equipped with a dark essence formation that would make it extremely hard to see in the darkness of space There is no need to mention that, that shalop, was always in the possession of the captain hie course?” Daniel then asked to the woman, which immediately walked to the area where the heled ever since the crossing had started

She was looking at a rocky platform, on which a small formation had been placed On this formation, a small-scaled reproduction of the solar system where they were currently in, had been replicated Each planet, the stars, and their shi+p, were present in the forht sphere

Based on the position of the shi+p, and the direction in which it was slowly , the woed Another detail that she was able to notice, was that the key to operate the helm was not inserted

”They haven't” She responded

Daniel's hands tightened in rage Not only had the captain left the shi+p while leaving the survivors on board, but he hadn't even bothered with changing the course to spare the isolated planet fro invaded by these monsters Daniel couldn't be more furious than he was at the moment

”Think Think Think” He ht He then suddenly stopped, and after turning towards the ed woman, he said ”My plan can still work We will only have to e the course?”

The wo ”We can't Only the helmsman or the captain can Only they have the component of the formation that allows to operate this forerfor ain his mind

”Yes”

Immediately after, Daniel asked ”Is it possible that there is a spare key in her cabin?”

”Possible This area is usually restricted, and the officers that live in it are all in line for taking up co were to happen to the higher ups If the captain and the helmsman were to die, the next one in the chain of command would have to take over” Responded the woman with newfound hope

”How do you know all of these things?” Asked Daniel with curiosity He couldn't understand why a sis of such a big shi+p

”I used to be one of the officers in this shi+p once” muttered the woman with a hint of e the receptionist?” he then asked

The woht stealing froh finally understood how the wos Of course, they didn't care about what her job was What they wanted, was to leave this shi+p as soon as possible ”Where is the announce the ht there” She responded while pointing at a second panel, placed just below the helmsman's post

This panel was identical to the previous one, but instead of a le diht in the middle of it

After the three hastily approached the area, Daniel asked ”Can I use it?”

”It still needs a key Most of the officers that work on the bridge can use it”

”Okay, so Nothing is going to happen unless we find the helain, at the door that lead to the living quarters of the officers
