Chapter 1: Return To The Past
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
This was the interstellar era full of giant spaceships and battleships. It was an interstellar era that was represented by the highest level of military power. Piloting a battleship to travel through the universe could be said to be the ultimate romance of men.
Lin Dong had always felt that it was his fortune to be able to come to this era.
Since the Goddess of Luck had already taken a liking to Lin Dong, was it not something that he should experience to make a great achievement, leave his name in history, and become an outstanding person at the same time?
Unfortunately, the Goddess of Luck did not seem to be paying attention to Lin Dong anymore. Instead, she shifted her gaze away from him.
His life only lasted for 30 short years, and he could be considered to have died young.
When Lin Dong was 20 years old, good things happened to him. He was out mining, and he encountered a rundown noble, Lorne, who was driving a Spark battleship. He was being chased until he was seriously injured. Lorne was about to die as well.
In order to prevent his Spark battleship from becoming the enemy’s spoils of war, Lorne chose to hand over the battleship to Lin Dong, allowing him to become the commander of the battleship and avenge him.
Although Lorne was heavily injured and on the verge of death, he was still able to kill Lin Dong at any time. After inheriting the battleship, Lin Dong naturally inherited Lorne’s grudges.
Lin Dong had no other choice but to accept it.
However, the Spark battleship belonged to the privileged class. At the same time, it was also one of the ways for commoners to become nobles. Therefore, Lin Dong did not lose out by obtaining such a battleship.
After suddenly receiving such a pleasant surprise, Lin Dong became cocky. He did not manage to outrun the enemies that were chasing after him in time. Furthermore, due to the lack of experience as a miner, he got into a series of trouble. In the end, he did not able to enjoy life and become a noble, he was always on the run.
Without the help of the personal support system, Lin Dong would not have lived to 30 years old.
Even so, before his 31st birthday, he was ambushed and killed by the enemies.
Fortunately, Lin Dong’s personal support system activated a 1-time hidden function, allowing him to return to 10 years ago!
At 20 years old, he was about to obtain the Spark battleship, and his life began to change!
He was killed by a sneak attack a second ago, and the next second, he returned to 10 years ago. It took a full 5 minutes for Lin Dong to accept the fact.
Lin Dong originally thought that his life would end there, but fate once again favored him. Although he had experienced a life and death moment, would he repeat the same mistakes?
It was like walking on a dark road. One would stumble and know where there were traps and obstacles. After returning to the starting point, one would basically not suffer any losses. This was the situation that Lin Dong was currently in.
The unique experience caused Lin Dong to be in a daze. He just stood there thinking of something.
“Lin Dong, have you picked your spaceship yet? There are still many people waiting behind. Hurry up and go to work.”
The manager urged.
Although the manager’s tone was harsh, it was not overly forceful.
For a mining company, it was normal for a miner like Lin Dong, who behaved well and was able to dig up high-quality minerals, to have such an attitude. If it was someone else who was wasting his precious time, the manager would chase the ill-mannered miner out of the queue and ask him to queue again at the back of the line. How could the manager give them more time to think after wasting 10 minutes of his precious time.
The manager’s voice caused Lin Dong to regain his senses. He then smiled in embarrassment. “Sorry for the trouble.”
After replying, Lin Dong activated his personal support system and scanned the mining spaceships parked there.
After spending 10 years together, the personal support system had long become an inseparable part of Lin Dong and he could use it with ease.
Soon after, the data description and assessment of the spaceships appeared in front of his field of vision.
Out of the dozens of mining spaceships, only the 3rd generation mining spaceships had a healthy green color. The rest of the spaceships were yellow, but there was no red color that had malfunctioned.
Lin Dong checked the detailed data of the 3rd generation mining spaceships.
F-grade close-air mining spaceships
Status: 90%
No growth rate
The 3rd generation mining spaceship was an old model from 200 years ago. However, it was superb on this remote mining planet. Compared to the spaceships of other mining planets, its performance was far superior than the others.
Its streamlined body and exquisite appearance had increased its popularity.
However, it was graded F because the lack of growth rate. It meant that it was destined to be a mining spaceship.
That was the best spaceship at the moment and there was no other choice. Hence, Lin Dong immediately pointed at it and said, “I want that spaceship. Please give me the authority.”
“Alright.”
The manager opened his optical computer and selected the 3rd generation mining spaceship that Lin Dong had mentioned from the internal list of spaceships. Then, he touched Lin Dong’s personal optical computer and the authority was handed over.
Of course, this authority was only limited for a short period of time. Lin Dong would not be able to control the spaceships when the time expired.
The login interface of the spaceships was brought out from the optical computer. Under the guidance of the gravity, Lin Dong entered the cabin of the spaceships.
Lin Dong sat on the commander’s seat. He held the steering handle and took a deep breath. Even though he had not come into contact with such an old mining spaceships for 10 years, he had still managed to find a part of the feeling.
Lin Dong’s skills were no joke.
He pushed the steering handle as the spaceship started to vibrate. Under the push of 6 high-power ion engines, it slowly rose into the air. After getting used to it, it left the ground and soared upwards.
After dashing out of the planet’s atmosphere and entering space, Lin Dong activated the autopilot system and laid comfortably on the captain’s seat.
At that moment, his finally relaxed. He believed that he had truly returned to 10 years ago and not just a dream.
As he looked at the planet below the spaceship that was gradually moving away, Planet A399, the only habitable planet in Baron Darkmoon’s mining area, Lin Dong had lived there for a total of 20 years in his previous life.
After inheriting the Spark battleship, he was chased down by Lorne’s enemies at that time. After stumbling all the way, he left that place.
When Lin Dong looked back, he felt a little unfamiliar with this place.
There were 30 million people living on the planet. The one with the most authority was the consul appointed by the Baron. There were 12 battleships stationed in the convoy, and there were a total of 6 mining companies.
Other than these official forces, there were also local forces that controlled all sorts of movements on the planet.
Originally, after Lin Dong inherited the Spark battleship, Lorne’s enemies should not discover him so quickly because he had covered his tracks. Even though he was still a miner without any experience, it was still enough to confuse the enemies.
However, when the local forces joined in, they followed the clues and quickly exposed Lin Dong’s position to Lorne’s enemies. As a result, he started his escape for the rest of his life.
At that time, if Lin Dong had been a little more careful, he should have been able to live a peaceful life.
“I’ll not make the same mistake again. Let’s try it again. Let’s see what you all can do to me!” A fierce glint flashed across Lin Dong’s eyes as he muttered to himself.
As Lin Dong recalled his experiences in his previous life, names quickly appeared in his heart. Those were the people who had once dealt with him. In his previous life, he could not do anything to them. This time, he had to proceed cautiously and make those people pay the price!
