"Then sir, what is the purpose of asking you?"
The middle-aged man sat up with difficulty: "Dingyuan Jin's heart-killing dagger hit me directly in the heart. If I hadn't been supported by a body close to the advanced level of physical exercise, I wouldn't have been able to continue. He died before the stimulant could be injected.
It's good that you can understand the Jin family's habits, and it can save us a lot of time. But I suggest that you take the Jin family more seriously, because they will always be more serious than you think. Yes, you must be ten thousand times more despicable, shameless, disgusting, perverted and scumbag."
Wang Dong nodded slightly, as if he was being taught.
He wholeheartedly agreed.
Before his rebirth, he really didn't pay enough attention to the difficulty of the Jin family.
In other words, he tried his best to pay attention, but his ability was limited and he didn't pay enough attention.
"I have to say, your performance is quite good."
The middle-aged man judged Wang Dong.
"Whether it's the quick response and neat self-rescue when faced with a sudden change, or the calm response after quickly recognizing the situation, or even the ability to remain calm in the face of uncontrollable forces. Young people like you, even in It's rare among the privileged class."
Wang Dong bowed slightly to express his gratitude.
"You are exaggerating. I still have a lot to learn. For example, how did your battleship suddenly appear next to me." The
middle-aged man twitched the corner of his mouth, which was a smile.
"My name is Yuan Shu, and this is my battleship, the Tomahawk. She is a fire battleship. What do you call me, little brother?"
Wang Dong bowed briefly, saluted, and said: "Mr. Yuan, it's an honor to meet you. , I am Wang Dong.
It turns out that the Tomahawk is a Fire Battleship, so is the previous performance the function of a certain ship-based module?"
Yuan Shu was slightly startled: "Wang Dong... little brother, it seems that you also have some knowledge about the Fire Battleship. As you know, this is rare. Being able to master this information in such a remote and small place shows that your ambition is not simple."
Wang Dong crossed his arms, sighed softly, and said: "Yes, the Fire Battleship is the highest level of human civilization. It is a symbol of force, and it is also the force that the privileged class relies on to maintain the basis of their rule.
In fact, it has always been my dream to have a fire warship of my own."
Yuan Shu grinned again: "Congratulations, yours The dream will come true soon."
Wang Dong frowned: "Mr. Yuan, I don't understand. What do you mean?"
"Just as you guessed, I will die soon.
Now on this battleship Between the two of us, before I die, I will transfer the captain's authority to you, and you will become the next captain of this Tomahawk!"
Wang Dong smiled bitterly and said: "Mr. Yuan, can I refuse? "
Obviously not."
Yuan Shu moved his arms, seeming a little puzzled by Wang Dong's refusal.
"But I don't mind hearing the reason for your refusal. It's really confusing.
I don't want to leave with doubts before I die."
"Having a fire warship of my own is the first thing I have learned about the existence of fire warships. I have a dream."
Wang shook his head and continued to smile bitterly.
"I have my own plan.
Work as a miner to save money, and then leave this country and go to the Federation. The colleges there have the most civilian-friendly path to advancement.
As long as you can graduate successfully and achieve excellent results, you can get the college Funded Fire Battleship.
Although it is difficult, I have confidence in myself, and I am still 30% sure.
Now there is a Fire Battleship, which seems to be at my fingertips, and can save me at least twenty years of struggle. Of course I am excited. And I'm very excited!
But it's still too early and too sudden. I'm completely unprepared, whether it's mentally, ability, or even background power. Mr. Yuan, can you understand?"
Yuan Shu was silent.
At first glance, as soon as Yuan Shu died, Wang Dong obtained the Tomahawk and became the new captain. Then he rose to the top in an instant, and his status was greatly improved.
But can it really go so smoothly?
First of all, Yuan Shu, who obviously had a grudge against the Jin family, was bound to die. Wang Dong knew it, Yuan Shu himself knew it, and the Jin family who had single-handedly facilitated it also knew it.
But if Wang Dong inherited the Tomahawk from Yuan Shu, would the Jin family let Wang Dong go?
Obviously impossible.
"Yiju must be repaid" Dingyuan Jin, do you understand?
As Yuan Shu said before, the Jin family has long been eyeing Yuan Shu and the Tomahawk.
Once Wang Dong boarded the ship and was discovered by the Jin family, he would be included in the scope of elimination.
Not to mention becoming the new captain of the Tomahawk.
In fact, any force would not hesitate to take action against Wang Dong after learning that a civilian like Wang Dong owned a Fire Warship, and would try every means to take the "Tomahawk" as its own.
This involves the second factor that Wang Dong just raised.
Background or power.
If you want to occupy resources of the level of the Fire Battleship, you must have certain qualifications.
This qualification could be ability - recognized as elite in some field, outstanding battleship commander, etc.
It can be background - a privileged class such as a descendant of an aristocratic family or a public official above a certain level, etc.
It can also be power - big financial groups, local governments, Fang forces and so on.
He could even be a dandy who inherited the legacy of his predecessors.
But for interstellar miners like Wang Dong, they are obviously not "qualified" enough.
Far from enough!
