Chapter 32: The Swimming Shark

　　Hamilton was lying comfortably on the sofa next to the porthole, holding the coffee delivered by the butler robot, looking at the starry sky outside the window, enjoying the highest authority of the captain and planning the repayment of one million new federal currencies.

　　Now that he has a ship, even if he goes to haul goods for transportation, it is not a big problem to get one million in three years.

　　Of course, Hamilton had better career plans.

　　For example, rob pirates, attack pirate bases, and steal batteries from large-capital merchant ships.

　　Oh, it’s time.

　　Hamilton said in an elegant voice: “No. 2, report the various indices of the spacecraft.”

　　”Okay Captain...”

　　”Stop! Stop! Hanton!”

　　Kolev said angrily: “This is the sixth time you have heard a report in the past hour!”

　　Hamilton held the porcelain cup, raised his eyebrows and smiled: “A good captain should always pay attention to his cute little spaceship. We have just experienced a series of jumps. I am worried that the armor module may fall off.”

　　”Listen, that’s absolutely impossible. Jumping is more stable than normal sailing. You can still hit dust and debris during normal sailing. What did you hit during jump sailing? Did you hit higher-dimensional life?”

　　Kolev said helplessly:

　　”You can come over and help me look at the star map. I just got some information. Captain Hanton, the situation is extremely bad.”

　　”Here comes the first mate.”

　　Hamilton stopped playing around and walked behind Kolev with his hands behind his back.

　　He looked at the bridge, which was somewhat empty due to the high degree of integration and auxiliary driving systems, and planned to set up a gym here so that he could exercise his muscle strength while observing whether any enemy ships were approaching.

　　Kolev pulled up the three-dimensional star chart.

　　”I have summarized and compared the information from several intelligence dealers, and there are not many things that can be confirmed now.

　　”Kimo and the others have been looking for us for two months. They also robbed two merchant ships. Now, three of the six ships of the Black Dragon Regiment are parked at point 1 - right here, in this meteorite belt, where is Great place to hide ... developed by me.

　　”The other two ships are at point two, and one ship is in the repair shop. Damn it, I developed these!

　　”Guka is at point two and Kimo is at point one.”

　　”They’ve actually divided,” Hamilton said.

　　”Yes,” Kolev laughed, “None of these guys obeys the other.”

　　”Wouldn’t it be easier for us to take action? Let’s go directly to sneak attack on their base, Kolev,” Hamilton said with eyes shining, “Maybe with one sneak attack, I can pay off the debt!”

　　Kolev said: “As I said, the situation is very bad now. Why do you think the fish are hiding in their nests and not daring to move?”

　　Hamilton asked cooperatively: “Why?”

　　”Because of it.”

　　Kolev quickly slid his fingers, and a fully curved warship with a water drop streamline appeared in front of Hamilton.

　　”A shark is wandering near them, and it has set its sights on them, your little Lina lover’s ship, an 8-meter-class light battleship.”

　　”This is really troublesome.”

　　Hamilton crossed his arms and clicked his tongue softly: “I kind of regret why I didn’t kill the flower with my own hands.”

　　”That’s not your fault. It’s hard for a normal person to kill a partner who has shared the joys and sorrows of her life,” Kolev said. “Especially at the time, she didn’t show much of a threat.”

　　Hamilton stared at the Dawn-class battleship for a while.

　　”You can find a way to sleep with her,” Kolev suggested sincerely. “Use your masculine charm to instigate rebellion against a senior intelligence officer. This will bring you unexpected benefits.”

　　Hamilton was about to retort, but suddenly thought of something.

　　Valkyrie’s mind control.

　　In the past three months, when Hamilton was alone, he tried every means to understand himself, and also did some physical tests, such as the longest interval between two injections of gene stabilizing fluid.

　　Sometimes Hamilton would enter a state similar to sleepwalking in a light sleep state. When he opened his eyes, the world in front of him was full of hazyness.

　　Sometimes Hamilton seemed to be able to hear what others were saying, but it was like a devil’s whisper that would soon make him dizzy.

　　The result was ... he didn’t find any ‘powerful skills’, and the rate of increase in physical strength also slowed down a lot.

　　If he had the mental control of the Valkyrie, his next actions would be much simpler.

　　”Where is Lina’s ship?” Hamilton asked.

　　”Near Kimo, this battleship is eyeing the meteorite belt. Your little lover probably thinks that if you keep an eye on Kimo, you can find us,” Kolev said, “Dawn-class battleship, 8-meter-class battleship One of the best-performing models, with a powerful firepower system.”

　　The old man paused and whispered:

　　”My six ships combined are no match for it.”

　　”Is its hull easy to penetrate?” Hamilton asked, touching his chin.

　　”It’s almost impossible, and I have no information about how thick its armor is,” Kolev shrugged. “Don’t think about it. This kind of warship cannot have obvious shortcomings. We must find a way to avoid it. Otherwise, the operation would not be possible at all.”

　　Hamilton stared at the star map in front of him carefully for a long time.

　　”Kolev, you said...”

　　”Um?”

　　Hamilton suddenly said: “Is it possible that Lina is bribing your subordinates?”

　　Kolev was startled for a moment, then frowned tightly.

　　Hamilton explained simply: “Lina was originally a doctor on board the Imperial experimental ship. I escaped with her, and then I was imprisoned in Cole Harbor Prison. She turned into an intelligence officer for the Guel Alliance.
