After listening to Goat’s question, Fang Linyan said leisurely,

“I really hope I’m wrong.”

At this time, someone knocked on the door again. Fang Linyan said,

“Come in.”

It turned out that Lipper the Vulture came to visit. He was holding a bottle of wine in his hand. He raised it to Fang Linyan and said with a smile,

“I saw it when you came back. At that time, you and Chief Electrician Jha were having a lively chat, so I didn’t disturb you two.”

Fang Linyan smiled slightly and said,

“How is that a disturb?”

At this time, Goat saw the wine in Lipper the Vulture’s hand, and he said excitedly.

“Wow, is this gin? I just happened to have some snacks here.”

As Goat said, he took out a lot of snacks from his arms. Peanuts were a must for drunkards as well as deep-fried dried fish, braised pig ears, etc.

The gin brought by Lipper the Vulture was a specialty of his world. It was brewed from a rare blackthorn and had a unique aroma.

When drinking it, the fragrance of grass and trees would be tasted first, and then there would be a rich and vigorous aroma of wine. The fragrance was brewing in a slight bitterness, which was a unique flavor.

Almost all contractors were privileged people in their own main world. Lipper the Vulture was no exception. Otherwise, he would not be able to obtain this kind of blackthorn gin, which was not sold in the market at all.

There was wine and food. After a couple of drinks, the originally astringent atmosphere suddenly became more harmonious.

At this time, Lipper the Vulture smiled bitterly,

“To be honest, I was forced to come here this time by my team. I really owe the boss a favor, so I can only shamelessly come to you for information.”

“I know this is quite taboo, so Battery, you can say as much as you can. If you can’t, I won’t force you. Let’s just drink.”

Fang Linyan’s eyes flashed. Such an act indeed made people a little uncomfortable, but he liked the code of conduct of Lipper the Vulture, that was, stating everything without hiding.

To survive in this difficult Space, there were times when someone needed help from others.

So Fang Linyan smiled slightly and said,

“I don’t mind telling you, because I was lucky enough to get some advantages in the first stage of this mission due to my own talent.”

“Actually, I was thinking about using this advantage to find someone to cooperate with in the next mission. You came at the right time, Vulture. You can be the mediator.”

Of course, Vulture knew that Fang Linyan said that on purpose. After they chatted for a while, Fang Linyan picked up some information that he could tell.

After a while, Tombstone, the current team leader of the Vulture, received the news and came over on his own initiative.

Tombstone was not tall, but he was burly. He exuded a spirit of vigor. He should be the person who spoke less but had a lot of power. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝓫𝓷𝓸𝒗𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝓶

In just a few words, the cooperation with Fang Linyan was finalized.

It turned out that the Team Tombstone had a conflict with a crew member named Schweik in the previous stage, so they suffered a lot when assigning repair work.

It just so happened that Fang Linyan had a connection with the senior executives of the ship, so Fang Linyan was responsible for resolving the interference of Schweik.

At the same time, in the next stage, Fang Linyan would speak good words in front of Latvis and fight for the interests of the Team Tombstone.

For Fang Linyan, these were trivial matters without any cost. Of course, there was no difficulty as well.

In return, the Team Tombstone would naturally form an alliance with Fang Linyan to help each other and to guard against the sneak attack of the Team Blood. free(w)ebnovel.com

At this time, Fang Linyan had won the trust of Coles’ senior executives, so Team Blood did not dare to deal with him openly and could only embarrass him secretly.

As far as Tombstone was concerned, as long as they didn’t have to face Blood Team head-on, the cost of protecting Fang Linyan was still bearable.

After reaching an agreement, Fang Linyan also made a request, which was to let Vulture follow him temporarily.

Firstly, it was to make up for the lack of manpower on his side. Secondly, Vulture could communicate in a timely manner through the team channel.

Tombstone readily agreed to this request. In his mind, Vulture’s strength was pretty good, but he was not irreplaceable.

More importantly, there was always a need to guard against those who were once team leaders.

He personally saw a bloody example of a team leader who kindly took in someone, but the person eventually seized control of the team and turned the whole team against the previous leader. After all, internal and external strifes were completely different things.

It might not be a bad thing to temporarily separate Vulture from his team at this time.

***

3 hours later, Fang Linyan was sleeping soundly in bed, seizing the time to replenish his energy.

Goat and Lipper the Vulture were concentrating on playing Match… the stacks of Gwent she left behind.

Suddenly, the wall opposite the cabin suddenly lit up. Chief Electrician Jha’s face appeared on it. He said with a smile,

“Hey, Battery, I promised you that I would notify you as soon as there is news about the meteorite belt.”

“Now Mr. Jha, who is true to his word, will officially inform you that the density of meteorites outside is 93% thinner than at its peak.”

“Well, according to Optical Brain’s analysis, we will be leaving this damn meteorite belt soon.”

Fang Linyan rubbed his sleepy eyes, sat up, and said,

“Oh, that’s really good news.”

Jha whistled and said,

“The second good news is that we have determined our current position. We are 8 hours away from the Tutuga Starport.”

“The tusked rabbit legs stewed with potatoes there are very famous. One bite will make your mouth full of grease! We can eat this dish and have a drink to survive such a hellish voyage!”

Fang Linyan smiled and said,

“I am looking forward to it.”

Jha said,

“Okay, I’m heading for work now. You can have a good sleep.”

Fang Linyan made an OK gesture and said,

“See you later. By the way, if there’s anything you can’t handle or you’re too busy, remember to call me.”

Jha pointed,

“Of course, I will never let you down. See ya.”

After talking to Jha, Fang Linyan frowned and said,

“Strange… could my guess be wrong? It can’t be that Coles entering the meteorite belt is really an accident, right?”

However, it was less than 10 minutes after Fang Linyan said this.

Suddenly, a shrill alarm sounded again in Coles. Everyone was already mentally prepared and stood up one after another.

Then the synthetic electronic sound sounded on the broadcast,

“Warning, warning, an unidentified fast cruiser is approaching. The other party maintains radio silence.”

“According to the fifth article of Article 7 of the Interstellar Navigation Act, we have the right to initiate an attack.”

“When firing, the ship may shake violently, catch fire, explode, etc.”

“Respectful guests, please wear your seat belt to avoid accidental collisions. If a sudden incident occurs, please follow the indicator lights to escape.”

After hearing the broadcast, Fang Linyan nodded silently and muttered,

“As I expected. The purpose of leading Coles into the meteorite belt is to create the illusion of an accident to deceive others.”

“But the other party obviously didn’t expect Coles to be able to survive the meteorite belt, so they have no choice but to attack directly.”

“But what is the goal of the other party? Is it to seek money or kidnap someone? Or is it a revenge?”

Lipper the Vulture said,

“Actually, we have also discussed this issue. In our conclusion, we think that no matter what the other party’s goal is, it should have a lot to do with Captain Latvis.”

Fang Linyan said,

“Is this because the main mission requires Latvis to survive?”

Lipper the Vulture said,

“Yes, there is no doubt that Latvis is the core figure in this series of events.”

Fang Linyan nodded.

At this time, the spaceship shook violently, then the lights in the cabin flickered on and off for a while before returning to normal.

Fang Linyan said without hesitation,

“Let’s go find Latvis. At any rate, we have to grasp the current situation.”

At this time, Fang Linyan already had a general understanding of Coles, which was really a behemoth.

Its main structure was divided into two parts. The first part was the main ship area, and the second part was the cargo area.

For this kind of space passenger and cargo ship, the main ship area functions as a locomotive to pull cargo. The cargo area itself does not have any maneuverability.

At this time, there were a total of 83 interstellar container cargo bays mounted in the Coles cargo area. There were more than 20,000 tons of cargo.

After being damaged in the meteorite rain, 27 interstellar cargo bays were abandoned.

The main ship area was a giant object with a length of 3km and a height of 160 meters. Therefore, during manufacturing, various components could only be manufactured one by one on the ground and then spliced them up in space.

They walked all the way to the outside of the central control room in the command area. A watertight door had shut the passage.

Moreover, there were many armored androids outside the watertight gate. The precaution was very obvious.

It was truly a small world. After arriving outside the watertight door, Fang Linyan and the other 2 actually ran into a group of people.

Most of the people in this group were strangers, but Fang Linyan knew two of them.

One of them was Match, who was hiding behind timidly, but she looked at Fang Linyan with hatred from time to time.

Needless to say, the other person was Blood Knight Crespo. His face did not look much different from that in Space Battlefield.

But Fang Linyan was taking over Fang Xiaoqi’s identity at that time, so Crespo was impossible to identify him in a glance.

This group of people was obviously the Blood Team.

But at this time, Fang Linyan knew it was not time to conceal his identity, so he stood forward with a smile and said to Blood Knight Crespo,

“What a coincidence! We meet again.”

TL: Why reveal himself? Then what’s the point of hiding his identity at the first place?
