Chapter 681: Chapter 675: Scare You to Death


    Forcible warping causes substantial damage to the engine. Although it won’t be directly damaged, the preparation time for another warp will be much longer. If they ignore this and forcibly warp again, the engine would most likely explode, with a probability exceeding 80 percent.


    This implies that they are on the verge of sessfully tracking their target. “How much longer will it take for us to be prepared?” Wind Martin asked ecstatically aftering to this realization.


    “My lord, we need about seven more hours. Their engines won’t oust ours. This means that their engines will need at least twenty hours to prepare for the next jump. After forcibly warping, their engines might even get damaged,” was the report.


    “Fine, inform the power department, and notify the entire fleet. I want the engine to be re-prepared in six hours. Even if our engines aren’t ready by then, we should still warp directly,” Wind Martin ordered.


    Although the enemies cannot continue using their warp engine, they can still use their flight engines. Six hours is enough time to fly a considerable distance. Even though they can catch up by warping, it’s best to warp over earlier to avoid troubles.


    “Yes, my Lord.” Their warships arerger and more advanced, hence their engines cool down much faster than the enemy’s.


    What they didn’t know was that, after warping to the target location, Finn Lewis and the others did not proceed. Instead, Finn said, “Luna Starfield, scan the nearby gxies and check for enemies and reconnaissance devices.”


    “Yes, Your Highness. Current scans show no reconnaissance warships in the nearby stars. The gxy we’ve chosen is deste and uninhabited,” Luna quickly answered.


    “Good, inform Caleb Shaw then,” Finn nodded.


    “Yes, Your Highness.” Luna quickly contacted Caleb. Meanwhile, Jasmine Davis and the others awaited the final results in the bridge.<div>


    The connection was quickly established, and after the precise coordinates were handed over, Caleb promptly terminated themunication. Shortly after, an intense golden light appeared in the starry sky hundreds of thousands of kilometers away from them. Finn was familiar with this golden light—it was a sign of the warp engine preparing to jump.


    However, the light was biggerpared to what he had seen before. Soon, a golden sh lit up, and three strange-looking, triangr spaceships appeared. These ships were actually smaller than the warship Finn and his crew were on.


    “What are these?” Finn asked, slightly puzzled.


    “Your Highness, they’re too far away. They should be preparing to open arge warp wormhole,” Lily Newman exined. The three triangr spaceships quickly converged, their corners connecting to form a triangr shape, a sight captured and shown on the bridge’srge screen by Luna.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om


    The spaceships quickly connected through numerous tentacles. Then, their engines erupted in intense blue lights and the ships began moving backwards, opening up a golden gate in the middle of the space.


    A giant triangr warp passageway soon appeared in space. Unlike the passageways opened by spaceships that quickly close, this passageway remained open. Next, two massive spaceships emerged from this passageway.


    Aftering through, the ships quickly turned on their engines and flew into the distance. The moment these ships appeared, Luna disyed their data on therge screen.


    “Your Highness, ording to the current visual scans, these are unlike any first-ss warship known to the Federation. They should be newly designed by the Wren n. Based onparisons, their firepower is around 20 percent more potent than the Federation’s standard warships,” Luna quickly approximated.


    “Hmm,” Finn was about to say something when Luna interjected, “Your Highness, Caleb is calling.”


    “Answer it,” Finn replied while gazing at the endless rows of warships continuously appearing from the wormhole.


    “Your Highness, I am here,” Caleb respectfully bowed to Finn the moment the call was connected.


    “Thank you,” Finn simply replied.


    “You tter me, Your Highness, you paid us, and we should honor our promise. Now, Your Highness, your gship is ready. Are we proceeding with the docking? We can transfer everyone over to that warship,” Caleb respectfully asked.


    “How long will it take?” Finn tilted his head and asked.


    “Approximately three hours toplete the transfer,” Caleb earnestly replied.


    “Well then, let’s proceed,” Finn nodded and told Luna, “Luna, you control the spaceship.” He then turned to Jasmine Davis, “Notify everyone to take their personal belongings with them. Everyone will transfer to that warship. You all can choose whatever warship you like, consider it a gift from me.”


    “If you insist, then I’ll dly ept,” Jasmine nodded, not one to y coy. She needed a new spaceship anyway since hers was practically damaged beyond repair. As for valuable objects on the current spaceship, barring some personal items, everything else was inferior to what the new spaceship offered.


    “Then go on and announce it,” Finn readily said.


    Jasmine nodded decisively. As soon as she made the announcement, the entire crew cheered in excitement. Although these space pirates knew that they might die one day and were mentally prepared for it, nobody truly wished for death. Naturally, they were thrilled at the chance to survive.<div>


    With Luna controlling the spaceship, they docked with one of the first two first-ss warships that warped in. Only upon nearing the warship did Finn realize the vast size difference. The first-ss warship was at least three times the size of their current ship.
