260: Welcome death? Space jump! (Fourth update

However, Lin Yang didn't give him a chance to speak, directly stating, "No need to say more. It hasn't come to that point yet. If there's truly no escape and you don't want them to benefit, it won't be too late to commit suicide then."

Cang Miao was stunned for a moment, then responded, "Yes."

Lin Yang, on the other hand, sighed inwardly again.

Actually, the slave's intelligent chip also restricts self-harming behavior to prevent slaves from self-mutilating or committing suicide, which would cause losses to the buyer.

But he wanted to train Cang Miao to become a Super Warrior, and that would inevitably involve injuries, so he gave Cang Miao a lot of authority.

As a result, this guy actually wanted to give him his heart blood.

Although this touched him, he still sternly warned, "Cang Miao, remember, no self-harming is allowed in the future!"

Cang Miao was stunned again, then lowered his head and responded, "Yes!"

At the same time, the countdown outside just ended.

The Marked Man's cold voice carried some impatience and anger as it came through:

"Damn guy, since you insist on not handing it over, then bear the wrath of this Commander!"

Boom!

Accompanying the words, Lin Yang felt a powerful energy fluctuation erupt from the opponent's battleship, sweeping towards the Apocalypse.

At the same time, several Ion Cannons were aimed at the Apocalypse and fired.

In an instant, the Apocalypse's energy shield was shattered, and the massive battleship shook violently.

"System, can it still work or not?"

Watching the opponent continue to fire Ion Cannons after shattering the Apocalypse's energy shield, Lin Yang inquired again.

The opponent clearly had powerful Fourth-Level Civilization destroyer cannons but didn't use them, instead attacking with ordinary Ion Cannons. It was clear he didn't want to directly blast the Apocalypse, along with Lin Yang and Cang Miao, into smithereens.

Although this could give him a little more time to stall, the energy consumption was terrifyingly high.

The Apocalypse's energy protection level was Level Three, while the opponent used a force intentionally controlled to a Fourth-Level initial Civilization standard. Each bombardment could consume a large amount of the Apocalypse's energy without completely destroying it.

At most, it would last a few minutes before the Apocalypse's energy and backup power would be completely depleted.

"That guy is definitely doing it on purpose!"

Lin Yang stared at the opponent's main ship, the Marked Man's appearance flashing in his mind.

It was something that could be solved with one shot, yet he insisted on wasting more energy to slowly bombard it.

Lin Yang understood this mentality too well.

This was meant to deliberately torment his psychological defenses.

Some guys just liked to watch their opponents slowly break down and die from torment.

This Marked Man was clearly one of those people!

Lin Yang's guess was correct.

At this moment, the Marked Man indeed had such thoughts.

Because the next moment, he heard the Marked Man's chilling sneer: "Little guy, you refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit. This Commander will make you watch your spaceship disintegrate little by little, then watch yourself float in space, slowly suffocating to death!"

"Damn it, old pervert!" Lin Yang couldn't help but curse.

This guy was simply a psychological pervert.

Suffocating in space, the mere thought of that scene made one's scalp tingle.

This was a psychological torment even more perverse than physical torture.

"Pervert? Heh heh, I like that title." The Marked Man chuckled softly, then leisurely said, "Enjoy the last bit of Time in your Life."

Lin Yang didn't respond again.

There was nothing to say to such a pervert.

Boom, boom, boom!

Large numbers of Ion Cannons and beam cannons continuously bombarded the Apocalypse.

Each time the energy shield was reactivated, it would be shattered by the opponent immediately.

The opponent seemed to be able to detect the Apocalypse's energy consumption, and each attack was perfectly timed to consume a large amount of energy without instantly shattering the Apocalypse.

This was treating the Apocalypse as a plaything!

With the bombardment, the Apocalypse's energy recharging was almost unable to keep up with the consumption rate.

After more than a dozen attacks, the Apocalypse's intelligent equipment also issued a warning: "Spaceship energy shield device over-charged, will cool down after next charge!"

Lin Yang's eyes changed slightly as he looked outside.

Sure enough, after another attack, the energy shield did not rise again.

"Heh heh, little guy, you really are vulnerable. Your energy shield is gone so quickly. Now, embrace your death." The Marked Man also sneered along.

The next moment, several Ion Cannons flew straight towards the Apocalypse.

Just as the Ion Cannons were about to hit the Apocalypse, the System's voice rang out at the last moment:

"Host, please authorize this System to expend all your remaining national treasure value for a random spatial jump. This jump can completely escape this star field."

"Hmm? Spatial jump?" Lin Yang's eyes narrowed slightly.

If he remembered correctly, not long ago the System had said that all his national treasure value wasn't enough to pay the minimum cost for a spatial jump.

Now it was possible?

But now was not the time to ask such questions. This thought merely flashed through Lin Yang's mind, and he immediately said, "Allow highest authority authorization!"

"Okay, Host's highest authority authorization received. Spatial jump preparation in progress. Host, please note that due to this being an abnormal jump, the destination of the jump will be random, and some unexpected situations may occur during the jump. Please put on your protective gear and enter the escape pod."

The System's voice was a bit rushed. After speaking, without waiting for Lin Yang's response, a cold mechanical voice rang out:

"Spatial jump initiated!"

Buzz.

As the mechanical voice fell, Lin Yang only felt the spaceship shake, then his whole body felt dizzy, and then he lost consciousness.

"Commander Sir!"

The second before he lost consciousness and fell to the ground, Lin Yang vaguely saw Cang Miao, horrified, helping him up, and his consciousness fell into silence.

At the same time, outside.

When those few Ion Cannons struck the Apocalypse's position, the Apocalypse instantly vanished from its original spot before the shocked eyes of the Marked Man and others, leaving only a rapidly closing wormhole entrance.

Bang!

The Marked Man's face instantly turned ashen. He slammed his fist on the control panel and roared, "Damn it, spatial jump! How could it be a spatial jump?! And a spatial jump without any pre-activation!"

"How could this Apocalypse possess the ability of spatial jump?!"

He looked at the wormhole, which was already about to close, filled with immense rage.

Spatial jump was a technology that could only be mastered by at least a Fourth-Level Civilization.

Moreover, spatial jump technology also varied in strength.

Ordinary spatial jumps required opening a wormhole channel in advance!

And opening a wormhole channel was a very cautious task, requiring detailed calculation, measurement, and stabilization of the wormhole entrance.

Otherwise, accidents were very likely to occur during the jump!

However, the Apocalypse's spatial jump technology, which had no pre-activation, was an advanced jump technology that even they had not yet mastered.

But the Apocalypse was clearly just an ordinary all-purpose spaceship; it shouldn't possess the ability of spatial jump at all!

But the fact before their eyes was that the Apocalypse not only performed a spatial jump, but there was also no pre-activation before the spatial jump!

This made everyone in the entire fleet feel as if they had seen a ghost!

"Commander, Commander, what do we do now?" The first mate trembled uncontrollably.

For an ordinary spaceship to possess the ability of instant spatial jump, it meant that there might be some unimaginable terrifying Civilization behind the Apocalypse!

The Marked Man's eyes flickered. After a long silence, he said coldly, "Continue the investigation, then report the information! Report it to the clan. We can no longer resolve this trouble on our own!"

"Still investigate?" The first mate trembled again, unable to help but say, "Commander, this guy might have some Super Civilization as his backing; otherwise, it would be impossible for the Apocalypse to possess the ability to jump in place. Is it necessary to continue investigating..."

"Hmph, even if a Supreme Civilization gets involved with a Wu Cang Clan slave, they'll lose a layer of skin. If this guy doesn't have a Super Civilization behind him, then he's worth us investigating at all costs. If we find out he has a Super Civilization behind him, then at worst, we'll spread the news and earn a sky-high bounty, which isn't bad." The Marked Man said coldly.

The first mate was slightly startled, then bowed and said, "Yes."

...

At the same time, in a distant star field, an unknown distance from where the Apocalypse performed its jump.

A spatial wormhole appeared, and from within, a somewhat damaged spaceship emerged.

From the ship's hull, it could vaguely be identified as an—Apocalypse.

The fourth update is here.
