594 – Storing The Wars.h.i.+p Away
What he said to Deng Bo just now reminded him that this wars.h.i.+p belonged to their prisoner! Shouldn’t the wars.h.i.+p of a prisoner belong to them? Although it belonged to friendly forces, those friendly forces had abandoned them and put them in danger. If friendly forces could abandon them, why couldn’t they capture them? That made sense.
As for what to do next, that was the academy’s business. It would be best if they could help him trick them, but if they couldn’t, he would think about it later.
With that thought, a strange smile appeared on Lan Xuanyu’s lips. Deng Bo, who was initially furious, suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
“Wu wu wu!” Deng Bo made a nasal sound towards Lan Xuanyu as though he was protesting something.
“Big brother Xuanyu, should I tape his nose too?” Yuanen Huihui took out the tape again.
Lan Xuanyu reprimanded, “How is he going to breathe if you tape it to his nose ? Do you have any common sense?”
“Why don’t we stick a nose hole on it?” Yuanen Huihui was still unwilling.
Deng Bo stopped snorting and shook his head vigorously.
“Team leader, have a good rest! We’ll be going back very soon. We’ll release you when we get back.” After Lan Xuanyu said that, he gave his teammates a look and gestured for them to go to the back cabin.
“What is it, boss?” Qian Lei looked at Lan Xuanyu excitedly. He knew Lan Xuanyu the best, and with one look, he knew that Lan Xuanyu wanted to do something special. En, it definitely wasn’t something good.
Lan Xuanyu looked at his teammates and whispered, “What do you think the academy and Tang Sect will do if we take this wars.h.i.+p away?”
“Ah?” Bai Xiuxiu.
“Ah?” Lan Mengqin.
“Ah!” Yuanen Huihui.
“En.” Tang Yuge.
“Ah ah ah!” Qian Lei.
“Good.” Liu Feng.
Everyone had different reactions, but their eyes were filled with shock as they looked at Lan Xuanyu.
Lan Xuanyu coughed to hide his embarra.s.sment and sighed. “Ever since I got together with Fatty Qian, I’ve become greedy. It’s a sin.”
“…” Qian Lei looked at him. What the h.e.l.l? What does it have to do with me?
Lan Xuanyu continued, “That’s what I’m thinking about. Firstly, this wars.h.i.+p was captured by us, right? Although it belongs to an ally that we’ve captured, they are too unreliable! After throwing us in Sin Planet, from that moment onwards, we were no longer allies. Also, this Tang Sect’s reconnaissance wars.h.i.+p is really not bad. Although it can’t accommodate all of our cla.s.smates, it should be able to accommodate more than ten people to learn how to operate a wars.h.i.+p. We are saving resources for the academy. I did some calculations and my Ring of Fate should be able to accommodate it. We only need to place the other items in the ring into the wars.h.i.+p and it won’t occupy more s.p.a.ce. We should be able to store it. So, I was thinking, should we try?”
Tang Yuge had a strange expression on her face as she said, “But the academy and the Tang Sect have a very good relations.h.i.+p. The academy should be the one who asked the Tang Sect to a.s.sist them in the final exam this time. Logically speaking, what we’re doing is acceptable to us, but I’m afraid the academy won’t be able to get through. What should we do?”
Lan Xuanyu said indifferently, “To be more precise, the Tang Sect and the academy were the ones who tricked us together in this final exam. They tricked us, so why can’t we trick them back? Also, we successfully completed the final exam, so the academy has no reason to punish us. When we return, I will temporarily return the Ring of Fate to Elder Shu and let him take care of the aftermath. Next time, the Tang Sect probably won’t agree to help us with any tests next time.”
“We won’t lose anything even if we try,” Liu Feng said. “The worst case scenario would be to return the wars.h.i.+p. If the academy has the same thoughts as us and is able to bear it, then we would have profited greatly. Our Star War Experimental cla.s.s needs a wars.h.i.+p to practice anyway. This would also save resources for the academy.”
Qian Lei said solemnly, “I think what you guys said makes sense.”
Lan Mengqin covered her face with both hands. “I feel like I’ve been led astray by you guys.”
Bai Xiuxiu giggled and said, “En, we were led astray by Qian Lei and have become greedy.”
“I…” Qian Lei wanted to refute, but Lan Xuanyu had already wrapped his arm around his shoulder. It seemed like he was wrongly accused!
Yuanen Huihui suddenly revealed an innocent expression and said, “I think we’ll be on vacation when we get back.”
Everyone’s eyes lit up. That’s right! It was the holidays. According to the time they were back, all of the final exams should have ended. Everyone had started their holidays and entered the 15-day holiday period.
The wars.h.i.+p remained invisible as it flew, but it did not consume too much energy. The Tang Sect’s reconnaissance wars.h.i.+p had shown its outstanding performance. Under its state of invisibility, it was almost impossible for a radar to detect it, so it naturally avoided all sorts of trouble.
Lan Xuanyu contacted the main system and after calculating their flight, he increased the speed of the wars.h.i.+p to its fastest. The energy inside the wars.h.i.+p was enough to support their return to the Mother Planet, so it was fine if they used up more energy. It was always better to return earlier.
Six hours earlier than planned, they saw the beautiful Douluo Planet.
The moment they saw Douluo Planet, the seven of them couldn’t help but cheer. This was their first time piloting a wars.h.i.+p back home, and the feeling of returning home made them feel as excited as birds returning to their nest.
Deng Bo opened his eyes as well. His emotions had already calmed down and he looked on coldly. He thought to himself, ‘These little scoundrels, watch how I’ll complain to you when I get back. Just you wait.’
Before entering the atmosphere, Lan Xuanyu ordered the invisible state of the s.p.a.cecraft to be removed and contacted the Shrek s.p.a.ce Center. With the Tang Sect’s entry pa.s.s, the navigation and the s.p.a.ce Center were connected and they naturally landed in Shrek s.p.a.ce Center.
Pa.s.sing through the atmosphere and activating the external air circulation system, the unique aura that belonged to the Mother Planet immediately filled the interior of the wars.h.i.+p, making one feel relaxed.
The gigantic Eternal Tree was already in sight and they were back.
Under the guidance of the wars.h.i.+p, it slowly landed. The moment it landed steadily, Deng Bo was a little excited. He was finally back! His tough days were over. It was too frustrating and embarra.s.sing.
However, what surprised him was that Lan Xuanyu’s team wasn’t in a rush to leave after the s.p.a.cecraft landed. Instead, they pulled him to the cabin door. Then, he was dumbstruck as he saw items flying out from Lan Xuanyu’s left hand.
‘What are these? Implants? So many?’
Lan Xuanyu’s hand was like an endless s.p.a.ce door. One by one, various pieces of equipment were released and piled up inside the wars.h.i.+p. In just a short while, over a third of the entire front cabin was filled up, and they were still being released continuously.
A look of realization appeared in Deng Bo’s eyes. These little guys must have robbed them from the Black Fang store. Good lads, how much s.p.a.ce could Lan Xuanyu’s s.p.a.ce storage hold? He actually managed to store so many pieces of implants. Although they weren’t very popular in the Federation, it was still very helpful to some disabled people, especially the disabled people in the military. At the same time, in terms of equipment research, Heaven Planet was ahead of the Federation and the research value of these implants was very high. They were considered good stuff.
No wonder these little guys were so fearless. They were going to use these implants to atone for their crimes! En, with so many of them, they could fetch quite a high price. It seemed like the grievances he suffered could be offset. They were smart.
Deng Bo’s gaze gradually turned gentler. “Wu wu wu”, he snorted, meaning, “Hurry up and untie me, I’m not so angry anymore.”
