Chapter 664: Chapter 658: Really Troublesome
“First, Your Highness, you need to communicate directly with Captain Jasmine Davis, we need to make an effort to escape,” Luna Starfield quickly said.
“And then?”
“Change the established plan, change the rendezvous point, let Commander Davis’ large spaceship come for aid. Lastly, you can contact the Supervisory Bureau. Although it’s difficult to do so from here, given your status, Your Highness, it’s more than ninety-nine percent likely that the Bureau will send battleships to rescue you,” Luna Starfield rapidly explained.
“However, that’s only our backup plan. The star field we’re currently in, also known by another name, has a rather horrendous cosmic environment. It’s a storm star zone, an area of about three hundred light-years where electromagnetic storms frequently erupt, causing various cosmic rays. Therefore, it’s tough to communicate over long distances with the Federation’s main communication equipment here. Even if I can help you contact the Supervisory Bureau through the star field, it will take their battleships more than two days to reach us.”
“So you’re saying that we have to board Captain Davis’ large spaceship first to withstand until the Supervisory Bureau’s arrival?” Finn Lewis quickly asked.
“Correct,” Luna Starfield nodded.
“Alright, then. Let’s go and communicate with our Commander Davis right now.” Finn took a deep breath and stood up from his seat.
“However, before the others arrive, the likelihood of us rendezvousing with Commander Davis’ large spaceship is less than fifty percent because we lack enough energy. The spaceship’s engine doesn’t have enough energy to support us making a jump of that magnitude,” Luna Starfield rapidly said.
“How did you come up with the success rate you previously mentioned?” Finn was speechless. Wasn’t this pouring cold water on him? He’d initially thought the original success rate was even smaller, and now the possible success of rendezvousing with Jasmine Davis’ large fleet seemed even less likely. How could the combined likelihood be so high?
“We change the course of our small spaceship. We choose a star system with a relatively harsh environment. There are seventy-six planetary systems within this three hundred light-years range, a total of eighty-two stars, with countless other comets, dark stars, etc. There are nine large electromagnetic storm zones, three areas with gamma rays, and six asteroid belts. One of these is a super large scale asteroid belt called the Death Star Belt,” Luna Starfield quickly answered.
Finn swiftly arrived at the ship’s bridge. The small spaceship itself wasn’t large, and there were only seven or eight people on the bridge. Upon seeing Finn entered, Jasmine Davis smiled and asked, “What’s the matter?”
“There is! It’s an important matter concerning our life and death.” Finn looked at Jasmine Davis with a serious expression as he spoke, taking a look at his surroundings.
“Don’t worry, we’ve been brothers for many years. We’ve faced all kinds of dangers. Speak up, what’s going on?” Jasmine Davis said straightforwardly, waving her hand.
“Someone is after us, a pirate group,” Finn came straight to the point.
Jasmine Davis raised her eyebrows, “How did you know?” It wasn’t going to be that simple. Jasmine Davis had chosen to leave the Federation’s territory through this noble territory and cross through the edge part to reach Finn’s territory precisely because she didn’t want to draw attention.
“That’s not important. What’s important is that they can catch up with us in less than 39 hours at the most, and we need three days to rendezvous with your spaceship. Three days – I believe you know what will happen to you if the pirates catch up. Oh, perhaps I can give you some good news – if my assumption is correct, they’re not after money, they’re after my life,” Finn laughed faintly.
Upon hearing this, Jasmine Davis opened her mouth wide, her glare sharpening at Finn. After a while, she said viciously, “I knew your things wouldn’t come easily. Fine, I don’t care how you learned about it. Since you’ve got the information, can you tell me how many spaceships and people they have? Which pirate group is it?”
“Luna Starfield?” Instead of answering Jasmine’s question, Finn raised his eyebrow and called out.
“Your Highness, I’ve captured the image.” Luna spoke out straightforwardly. Finn swiftly ordered Luna to play the captured projection image in the bridge. As the three-dimensional holographic image was displayed, Jasmine Davis couldn’t help but gasp.
Turned around to look at Finn, “Are you sure they’re after your life?”
“Yes.” Finn was also shocked by the image, because what appeared in front of him was a gigantic fleet. Although he didn’t know if it was larger than the fleet of the Supervisory Bureau because he had only caught a glimpse of it, the size of the fleet before his eyes was undoubtedly considerable.
