As for why Lin Dong was certain?

A Spark battleship would not randomly enter the mining area. It was similar to the game. If a Spark battleship were to enter the mining area, it definitely had a purpose.

​​

Other than the Sylvester family's pursuers, only the Thunder Flash was in the mining area.

However, Lin Dong had been using his personal support system to remotely control the Thunder Flash. He had activated the exterior simulation, and he had never been exposed in front of any spaceships.

After those words, Lin Dong was not in a hurry to set off. Instead, he stood there and waited for the others to react first.

Time quietly passed. Not a single miner set off to mine.

Boss Liu had bragged a moment ago. However, he seemed to have recovered his senses and was a little afraid.

Encountering a battleship in the mining area was not a good thing.

This was because there was definitely a force behind the battleship protecting them. How could a miner be worthy of being protected? They would be happy if they were not involved in it.

A few people died in the mining area, and the reason was often not found.

Even if the battleship did not make a move, the long-distance rendezvous could also affect the miners' mining spaceship.

No one went to mine, but it was already in the safe period.

If they missed the safe period, the loss would be huge.

The mine owner, Boss Qin, rushed over and said angrily, "What are you worrying about?"

"Those who can pilot the Spark battleship are all nobles. Why would they care about poor miners like you?"

"Let me tell you. First of all, the mining area is very big. You can't just run into it. Second, even if you run into it, you should try to avoid it. Then, nothing will happen. Their time is very precious. How can they lower themselves to your level?"

"Don't gather here. Hurry up and enter the mining area. The purchase price this month will be increased by 5%!"

Boss Qin's words were unpleasant to the ears, but he was still the boss, a local force.

He was also quite well-informed.

If he really did not have any connections, he would not be able to contract a mining area.

As soon as he spoke, the miners thought about it carefully and still felt that it was very reasonable. Therefore, they listened to him.

Even if a few people had doubts, the purchase price this month had increased by 5%. This was a chance for them to earn more money. Who would be willing to make less money?

Not long after Boss Qin appeared, the miners began to pick their spaceships and prepare to enter the mining area.

Lin Dong was also amongst them. He was just like a drop of seawater in the ocean, not showing the slightest bit of his presence.

According to Lin Dong's previous method, he would first speed up and enter deep into the mining area. He would shake off the other miners spaceships behind him, whether intentionally or unintentionally, to ensure that nobody was following him. After which, he would carry out a day's worth of mining operations.

The identity of a miner was useful before exposing the Thunder Flash's commander, and it was worth maintaining it that way.

Moreover, the maintenance of the Thunder Flash needed to use some minerals. It was a good opportunity for him to mine enough and save money.

After estimating that he had harvested enough, Lin Dong piloted the mining spaceships and successfully met up with Thunder Flash.

He docked the mining spaceships into the Thunder Flash's cargo hold and unloaded some of the minerals onto the Thunder Flash. Some of these minerals were specially mined by Lin Dong, and were specially used to upgrade the Thunder Flash's ship module, as supplementary materials.

Some of these minerals could be used to repair damaged battleships too.

High-grade minerals could only be found by luck. However, there were plenty of common minerals in this asteroid belt mining area.

Lin Dong followed the corridor and entered the command cabin alone.

The command cabin was empty and quiet.

"Welcome back, commander."

The optical computer greeted.

Lin Dong smiled faintly. He sat on the commander's seat and turned around to look at the control screen in front of him.

Why would he feel lonely on the Thunder Flash?

This was a Spark battleship, a romance that only belonged to men.

As he sat on the commander's seat, Lin Dong turned on his personal support system. First, he turned off the remote battleship control function. Next, he chose 1 of the functions that he could currently use, alternate space signal acquisition function.

As the unit of low-grade mineral crystals in Lin Dong's hand slowly dissipated, the All spark on the Thunder Flash started to react.

The flame that had maintained its steady output slowly rose, as if it was resonating according to a certain pattern.

Soon after, as the low-grade mineral crystals disappeared, the flame stabilized.

A voice that was completely different from the voice of the ship's optical computer sounded out.

"Beep! The All spark has already received an alternate space signal. It can activate the alternate space battlefield. Commander, please confirm."

Lin Dong suddenly clenched his fist as excitement appeared on his face.

The function of the personal support system had been successfully displayed!

It allowed the Thunder Flash's All spark to receive the alternate space signal without the need to be in a special area!

The other Spark battleships had to be at a special spot in order to receive the space signal.

Whether or not they would be able acquire the space signal would depend on luck.

Meanwhile, Lin Dong's side was completely taking the initiative due to the help of the personal support system.

Moreover, he could easily enter the alternate space battlefield from any spot in the universe.

However, Lin Dong was not in a hurry to enter the battlefield. He had to prepare his safety measures first.

The first thing was to activate the exterior simulation function of the battleship, allowing the Thunder Flash to enter a state that was similar to being invisible.

This was very important.

After entering the alternate space battlefield, he would no longer have any friends. There would be enemies on the other side. The first step to activating the exterior simulation was to hide himself so that he would not be surrounded and attacked. While battling at a different civilization, information was the most important factor in a battlefield.

The moment Lin Dong entered the battlefield, he would be discovered by the enemy. After which, he would be surrounded and attacked. How was he able to quietly gather information?

After the external simulation was activated, Lin Dong set up miniature reactors in the nearby area and distributed it in the surrounding.

This way, when he exited the alternate space battlefield, he would be able to detect whether there were any spaceships passing by during the time he entered the battlefield through the miniature reactor's condition.

After the arrangements were completed, Lin Dong checked once again. He did not find any problems as he said, "Enter alternate space battlefield!"

As the command was given, the Thunder Flash's engine started to operate at full speed. The All spark on the battleship suddenly shot out a bright flame.

At the same time, the entire body of the battleship was covered by a transparent ripple. The engine was operating at full speed, but the battleship did not fly forward. Instead, it remained where it was.

As the ripple gradually intensified, the battleship's figure began to fade until it completely disappeared into the universe.

In an instant, it was transported to another dimension.

When the battleship took off, an intense dizziness assaulted Lin Dong.

However, in an instant, the dizziness disappeared, as if it had never appeared.

Lin Dong quickly regained his consciousness, unlike the first time he entered the battlefield, when he almost vomited.
