“Stay where you are right now; my fleet will warp to your coordinates in about seventeen minutes forty-six seconds.” Jansen sighed.

Stunned, Xia Fei’s brows furrowed further. “What do you mean? Do you know me?”

Jansen hesitated for a moment. He lightly ruffled his golden locks first before answering, “You don’t know me, but I know you. I’ve seen the recording of you during the Adjudicator Union’s crisis grade assessment.”

Xia Fei chuckled and did not say anything else.

He appeared perturbed by what was happening, but his fingers had been rapping lightly on his control console, adjusting the autopilot short warps into the furthest long-distance warp.

The indicator lights displayed that the warp engine had been sufficiently charged for the next jump, so Xia Fei soundlessly ended the video transmission with Jansen and rapidly transited Vampire into warp travel mode.

Xia Fei did not trust that Jansen person at all.

From how he had sent a message to verify his identity, there was nothing suspicious about Jansen’s identity. If Jansen had any ill intent toward him, he would not have a need to hail or inform Xia Fei about the time it would take his fleet to reach him.

Xia Fei had no doubt about all these, but he remained obstinately skeptical. At the end of the day, he was still in the Wild Star Region, where anything and everything could happen. If anyone wished to survive in a place like this, they could only depend on themselves.

The Black Mamba 130 engine was far more outstanding than the average engine out there, capable of traveling a full 61,450 lightyears in a single warp, and this let him leave Starlink Corporation’s First Fleet in his proverbial dust.

It was only that such large-scale warping would create a huge energy signature. If any nearby pirates were to pick up on it, they might very easily follow his trail, and that would be extremely dangerous for Xia Fei and company.

Starlink Corporation’s First Fleet, lead ship.

Jansen stared dumbfoundedly as Xia Fei slipped away without warning, not even saying a word of goodbye.

He was initially taken aback but soon understood why it happened. Xia Fei did not trust him.

With that thought in mind, Jansen barked a series of orders. “Immediately search for traces of that warship. Additionally, initiate our extreme long-range communicator and connect us to the missus’s residence.”

Tidying his uniform, Jansen stood up straight and waited for the other party to establish connections.

It took a long time for the extreme long-range communicator to establish a connection and several minutes for a man in his sixties to appear before the screen.

“Old Pang, is the missus there?” Jansen respectfully bowed.

“The missus has just turned in for the night. Why, is something the matter?” This elderly man, who had been addressed as Old Pang, shot this question back with annoyance. Judging from his tidy black uniform, with a pair of w
