Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lin Dong was silent for a moment before he answered Lorne, “In that case, I agree.”
Regardless of whether Lorne threatened Lin Dong or not, he would still choose to go against the Sylvester family. This was because he had already been killed by them once. There was no reason for him to let them off his hook so easily.
If Lin Dong were to do it again, he would definitely not die so easily. Instead, he would take revenge!
Lorne had roamed the space for many years. In addition, he had learned the meditation technique. When he sensed the determination in Lin Dong’s words, he felt relieved.
“Excellent. I hope that you can live on. I’ll hand over the Thunder Flash to you. It’ll be your loyal partner.”
“Thunder Flash, as the current commander, I’ll officially announce my appointment. Transfer the authority of the commander to the human citizen in front of me, Lin Dong.”
As Lorne finished speaking, alarm sounded and red light started to flash in the command cabin.
Soon after, a green light started to scan Lorne and Lin Dong’s bodies.
“Beep! Beep! Beep!”
“Commander’s identity confirmed. Appointment confirmed. Target confirmed. No abnormal spiritual energy fluctuations.”
“Please confirm the appointment once again, commander.”
After the optical computer scanned them for a full minute, it emitted a pleasant electronic sound.
“Appointment confirmed!”
Lorne expressionlessly confirmed once before he closed his eyes. It was as if he did not want to continue watching, but at the same time, it was as if his body could not hold on any longer and he was about to die.
Soon after, Lorne’s expression relaxed as he softly sighed. There was reluctance, hope, confusion, and unwillingness shown on his face.
“The appointment has been successful. Commander Lin Dong, Congratulations on becoming the 3rd commander of this battleship. Thunder Flash reporting to you.”
“Begin authority transfer. The information has been entered.”
The appointment procedure was rigorous and thorough.
The entire process not only required the commander to confirm twice, but it would also check them. If Thunder Flash discovered that the commander was being blackmailed or that there was something wrong with his mind, the appointment procedure would automatically stop and wait for the commander to recover before proceeding with the procedure again.
Moreover, if the person that the commander transferred was an enemy that was previously confirmed, the procedure would stop as well.
After the authority was transferred, Lin Dong officially became the new commander of the Spark Battleship – Thunder Flash.
From this moment onwards, he could issue orders to the 4 robots in the battleship. No matter what it was, the robots would strictly carry out the orders, including dealing with Lorne.
However, these were just thoughts. Lin Dong would do that.
The 4 robots were holding laser guns while Lorne lay on the chair, unable to get up. He looked like he was about to die. Even his heart was exposed. However, if Lin Dong dared to give the orders to kill Lorne, he would definitely be the first to die.
Lorne had practiced meditation technique. The meditation technique would not only strengthen his body, but also his spirit.
When the primary level meditation technique was completed, the strength of the body would be doubled, and the spirit would be 3 times stronger than an ordinary person. In a sense, it could be said that he was an extraordinary existence.
After breaking through to the intermediate level meditation technique, the body and spirit would be further strengthened, to 3 times and 4 times respectively.
Furthermore, while his body would find it difficult to move due to his injuries, Lorne’s spiritual energy would not.
As long as Lorne’s mind was clear, spiritual energy would be more convenient to deal with ordinary people than his physical body.
Even with a super rail gun, Lin Dong did not dare to give the order, let alone the laser guns.
He maintained his respect toward Lorne. “Mr. Lorne, do you have anything else to tell me?”
Lorne opened his eyes as he waved his hand and said, “Now that you are the commander, you can do whatever you want. Don’t mind me. My life is about to come to an end. I hope that I can quietly spend the rest of my time on the Thunder Flash and use my last breathe to bid farewell to it.”
“As you wish, I’ll avenge you. However, based on what you said just now, there are still people from the Sylvester family following us. I hope that I can search for the previous information and find a way to deal with them as soon as possible.”
Lin Dong did not listen to Lorne’s earlier words.
If Lin Dong really did whatever he want to do, he might be dead in the next moment and be thrown out of the battleship.
Although Lorne did not harm Lin Dong, he was not telling the truth.
For example, the effect of the military stimulant of the could last for an hour. An hour had passed, but Lorne was still the same as when they first met. Although he looked like he was about to die, he was still able to open his mouth and speak. Maybe Lorne still had strength and was able to get up from his seat. He might even hit Lin Dong with his military boxing moves.
Both of them were well aware of it and did not point it out.
Lorne thought for a moment before he opened his mouth and said, “That’s fine too. After all, you’re the commander now. This is your right.”
“To be able to adjust your attitude so quickly, it seems like I’m right.”
Lin Dong heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. He was unsure if he could convince Lorne. Fortunately, the outcome was not bad.
In Lin Dong previous life, after he inherited the battleship, he did not dare to act rashly. Instead, he stayed there quietly and waited until Lorne’s death was confirmed before he started doing something.
He wasted a lot of time, and Dan was able to catch up with him. With that, the originally damaged Thunder Flash became even more serious.
At the same time, it would create a crisis for the future.
Since Lin Dong had made some changes, it was destined that Dan would not gain anything from it.
Lin Dong turned on the battleship’s optical computer to search for information as he activated the personal support system.
After obtaining the commander’s authority, the Thunder Flash was already his personal property. Although the Nano-bomb robots had yet to be deactivated, he could already activate his personal support system.
“Personal battleship detected. Activating self-activation function…”
When Lin Dong heard it, he smiled. The activation of the personal support system gave him more confidence.
Not long after, the voice sounded once again.
“Self-activation function: Remote battleship control activated!”
Immediately, Lin Dong felt that he had fused with his battleship. He did not need to constantly control the battleship in the command cabin. He could also control it from the outside. All he needed to do was to activate the self-activation function, and all that was consumed was Lin Dong’s energy.
Under this state, the entire structure of the Thunder Flash, as well as the status of each module, appeared in Lin Dong’s mind one by one.
The interior of the battleship seemed to have become a part of Lin Dong’s spiritual energy.
“Activate internal scan.”
“Beep. Spark battleship. Thunder Flash. Main cannon LV2. Armor LV1. Engine LV2. Detection radar LV1. Ship structure LV0. Energy shield LV2. Overall evaluation: Spark battleship LV6. Remaining source points: 15. Source points acquisition rate: 25%.”
“Additional modules: Space jump device LV0. Exterior simulation LV0.”
“Armor damage: 40%. Ship damage: 5%.”
“Main ammunition: 125 rounds. Secondary ammunition: 2,300 rounds. Energy: 2,340. Daily necessities: 400 units.”
As the internal scan ended, a series of data appeared in Lin Dong’s mind, allowing him to have a rough understanding of Thunder Flash.
Even the damaged parts of the armor and structure were shown on the drawing.
