章 14: Get Rid Of The Pursuers
編集者: EndlessFantasy Translation
The tactical system of the Spark battleship had a great impact on the evaluation of a battleship's combat power.
It determined whether it was an elite or normal Spark battleship.
With the space jump device and exterior simulation, the core of Thunder Flash's tactical system was already in place. With 1 or 2 more modules added, the entire tactical system could be formed, and its combat power would increase.
Of course, high-quality modules were quite cool to use, but it cost a lot.
For each module, the upgrade requirements were different, but all of them needed source points to upgrade. The higher the quality of the module, the more source points needed for strengthening and upgrading.
The legendary grade exterior simulation was still level 0, and the source points needed for strengthening and upgrading were 7 times that of the normal grade modules!
Apart from the difference in the source points required, the mineral resources required for high-quality modules were also extremely expensive.
Although the exterior simulation upgrade only required 5 units of gilt, these 5 units of gilt were a hundred times more expensive than 2 tons of starlight iron ore, and they were not in circulation on the market.
Gilt was one of the controlled resources of the privileged class!
At this moment, be it the exterior simulation or the space jump device, they were all in a buffering state.
Since Lorne had escaped here, the 2 additional modules had contributed greatly.
The buffering time for the exterior simulation was 10 hours and 30 minutes.
The buffering time for the space jump device was 13 hours and 5 minutes.
Looking at the buffering time of the 2 additional modules, Lin Dong smiled. Compared to his previous life where he was in a flurry and was chased around by the Sylvester family's troops, his situation was much better at the moment.
His battleship was not damaged further. His identity was still a secret to the Sylvester family.
If nothing unexpected happened, the Sylvester family's pursuers had already arrived at the mining area where the Thunder Flash had landed previously and were bitterly searching for them.
If Dan was smart enough, he might be able to follow the reactors and chase Lin Dong.
However, after being misled by the reactors, Dan would probably jump around and curse.
On the way here, aside from the memories he had 10 years ago, Lin Dong had made a few plans to deal with the crisis that would occur during this period of time.
One of them was that after he obtained the Thunder Flash, he would be chased by the Sylvester family. Therefore, he had to start a war.
Where should Lin Dong fight them? The place must be suitable for him to display his abilities and so on.
Fortunately, he did not use any of those plans and the situation was much better.
This time, not only did he obtain the Thunder Flash without fighting, but he also kept his battleship's combat power to the greatest extent.
Although Lin Dong still had the Nano-bomb robots on him that needed to be deactivated, the most important thing was not to deal with the descendants of the Sylvester family. Instead, he had to hide first and collect more information before making plans.
There was still time before the bomb exploded. He was not sure whether Lorne was dead or not. Would the Sylvester family give up tracking him down?
The more information he had, the more he would be able to judge the situation. Only then would he be able to make decisions that would not harm himself.
Before Lorne died, he asked Lin Dong to take a good look at the ship's log and learn from the experience and tactics recorded on it. Little did he know that Lin Dong did not need those at all.
He had accumulated 10 years of experience as the commander of the Thunder Flash. Lin Dong was very familar with his battleship
"Since I have avoided the members of the Sylvester family, I only need to wait for the space jump device and exterior simulation to finish buffering before I can return to the mining planet and continue my mining operations. After that, I'll return as an interstellar miner."
"The members of the Sylvester family will definitely not keep a low profile when they come here. This is my chance."
Using the information gap, Lin Dong would be able to achieve his goal.
He was worried that the members of the Sylvester family might vent their anger on the surrounding miners because they did not manage to catch up to the Thunder Flash.
The Sylvester family was 2 levels higher than the Baron Darkmoon.
If a conflict really broke out, Baron Darkmoon would not dare to do anything to the member of the Sylvester family. Baron Darkmoon dared not fight with them, right?
The deaths of the miners were probably nothing in their eyes.
However, Lin Dong seriously thought about it and ruled out this possibility. It had already been over 10 hours since he escaped. If the members of the Sylvester family were to go crazy, they would have long since gone crazy. It was unlikely that they had not made any movements.
Lin Dong checked the reactors that he deployed. Most of the reactors had already lost their effectiveness.
However, when the positions of the reactors were connected, one could see a route. First, they would follow the route, before they were led to other places.
Excluding the possibility of the meteorite, only the Sylvester family's pursuers could chase to the depths of this mining area.
Lin Dong pondered for a moment, before he ultimately chose to retreat.
Honestly speaking, he wanted to kill the Sylvester family's pursuers. Not only would he avenge Lorne, he would also be able to deactivate the Nano-bomb robots.
However, he was clear that at this moment, he really could not defeat them.
If he could deal with them, Lorne would not have been hunted down.
The direct descendants had their family behind them. Not only did their resources supply far exceed that of ordinary people, but the education and competition within the family would strictly screen out the younger generation. Excluding those useless b*stard, the members that could be send out to hunt down someone were truly capable.
Lorne's family clearly could not compare to the Sylvester family, which was why there was such a difference in power.
His Thunder Flash's combat power was LV6. If the person who came was really Sylvester Dan, the lowest level of his battleship would not be lower than LV10.
They could not be compared with the Sylvester family.
In a head-on battle, unless Thunder Flash's main cannon fired 10 consecutive shots at the opponent's energy shield, it would not be able to break through the defense.
Thunder Flash's energy shield could at most withstand 3 consecutive shots from the opponent.
If they were to fight head-on, Lin Dong would definitely not be able to win unless he upgraded his battleship.
Lin Dong possessed a personal support system. He could enter an alternate space to obtain a source points and use it to repair the damage of his Thunder Flash. As long as he did not expose his identity, he would still have some time to upgrade and strengthen his battleship.
Once he was fully prepared, what would happen to the members of the Sylvester family? Who said that Lin Dong could not kill them?
However, it was extremely irrational to be entangled with the Sylvester family.
The small Planet A399 was not the only planet in the universe. There was no need for Lin Dong to limit himself to this place.
"The Sylvester family. We still have a long way to go. Just you wait."
Lin Dong looked at the quiet planet and laughed coldly. He piloted the Thunder Flash and placed his 3rd generation mining spaceship on a large meteorite from the cabin.
He was going to pilot his 3rd generation mining spaceship and return as a miner. He was going to wait for the next mining date.
At that time, it would be the time to enter the alternate space to obtain source points.
