Super Island Tycoon

Chapter 1061: Chapter 1060: Power

The commander spoke more fluently: ”I request you all give my superiors, including myself, another chance; we will certainly relocate those disaster victims properly. Isn’t this what you want as well?

Jiang Cheng pondered silently. The commander’s words weren’t entirely unreasonable. After their initial conflict ended, their demand from Shorty was indeed the resettlement of disaster victims.

Moreover, Jiang Cheng believed what the commander said. He had interacted with those high authorities from the Extraterrestrial Planet, and with those people’s tendencies, it’s not impossible that they might renege after leaving, thus leaving Shi Min responsible.

If such a situation occurred, it would betray their original intent.

”You make a valid point, but how can we trust what you say?” Jiang Cheng looked at the commander and asked, ”If, after we leave, you vent your frustrations on the disaster victims, we’d still be unable to do anything.”

”Here’s a solution: my superior can allocate funds to relocate those disaster victims. I mean, you can analyze the entire situation for them so they can choose whether to stay or leave by themselves.”

The commander seemed to have a plan, so he appeared confident: ”My superior will allocate funds, then issue documents to the disaster victims. They can choose whether to stay in the Capital City, go to Delmar’s satellite, or even other planets.”

Thus, even if my superior wants revenge, it would require significant effort. Plus, as time passes, this matter will become less important since they have other pressing matters to deal with.

The commander made a convincing case, Jiang Cheng thought so. He turned to Yanran: ”Do you think what he said makes sense?”

”I think it’s not bad; there is sincerity in this commander’s words.”

Yanran nodded in agreement.

Jiang Cheng nodded and turned to Panzhi: ”So, what about you? Did you hear your subordinate’s suggestion?”

Shorty was momentarily silent. The commander looked at him with pleading eyes. ”Alright, if survival is possible, it’s best to survive. Even an ant cherishes life. As for money, it’s no issue for Shorty. He makes money easily and doesn’t even need to use his own money.”

In his position, he can easily commandeer funds whenever he wants without any difficulty.

Such matters are routine for Shorty, and since the money could save his life, there’s absolutely no problem.

Shorty even considered that if it’s inconvenient to use public funds now, he could tap into his private stash. Anyway, he has plenty of opportunities and methods to recover it later. ”I agree with his suggestion,” Shorty nodded and said.

”You have a loyal subordinate. This time, you’re surviving entirely thanks to his efforts. Opportunities like this are rare; I hope you’ll cherish it,” Jiang Cheng looked at Shorty. ”This is your last chance. If you try any more tricks, no one can save you!”

Without delay, Jiang Cheng let Shorty immediately accompany him to the Capital City of the Extraterrestrial Planet. He wanted to personally oversee Shorty sorting out the disaster victims, and the commander also had to accompany them back. Jiang Cheng had decided that the specifics would be handled by this commander.

He didn’t trust others, but this commander was worth a try.

Although this person was very frightened in their presence, he still stood up to plead for his superior rather than being a traitor seeking glory. He had commendable character.

Once resolved, Jiang Cheng had Shorty and the commander immediately set off, following him to the Capital City of the Extraterrestrial Planet.

They were using a gunboat which needed significant repairs before being able to take off, as its current state was uncertain.

Jiang Cheng looked toward the spaceship Shorty intended to use for escape.

The spaceship was jet-black, with a slender, flat hull, quite different from ordinary spaceships.

Seeing Jiang Cheng approach the spaceship, the commander understood his intent. He had seen on the monitor that their gunboat was severely damaged.

The commander immediately opened the spaceship’s hatch for Jiang Cheng, inviting him inside and began the introduction.

This particular spaceship represents the latest technological and manufacturing advancements of the Extraterrestrial Planet. Altogether, three of these ships were built. As the top leader of the departmental team, Shorty naturally managed to acquire one. Since the Extraterrestrial Planet had been peaceful for so long, Qunzi rarely needed to use the spaceship, so Shorty boldly hid it at his base.

This spaceship is extremely fast, far surpassing most of the Delmar Planet’s aircraft.

As a special vehicle for the Extraterrestrial Planet’s leaders, this spaceship not only excels in speed but also has outstanding defensive capabilities.

According to the commander, the spaceship’s shield can withstand continuous firing from the team’s gunboat’s main cannon. After all, those who ride it are high authorities, and their lives are very precious, so its protective capabilities must be exceptional.

Jiang Cheng discovered a very distinctive spaceship at Shorty’s base which intrigued him.

Recognizing Jiang Cheng’s interest, the commander proceeded to provide a detailed introduction of this spaceship.

He then mentioned that the spaceship not only boasts incredible speed and excellent protection capabilities, but also has powerful firepower.

At this point, the commander started pressing various buttons on the console, and with a series of sounds, this seemingly reconnaissance spaceship revealed its true nature.

Although it lacks a powerful ion cannon as its main armament, it carries a substantial number of missiles, and combined with not-too-large caliber electromagnetic guns, the overall firepower is sufficient for a small-scale armed conflict.

Of course, the original purpose of this spaceship wasn’t combat, so its weapons are intended for self-defense.

However, compared to other spaceships of the same size, its firepower is already formidable.

Therefore, the base commander concluded, this is a combat ship with rapid speed, high protection, and certain levels of firepower.

”This type of spaceship is ideal for long-distance travel between planets,” the commander smiled at Jiang Cheng and said, ”Moreover, its power system is extremely impressive and can fully utilize solar energy as auxiliary power.”

The alien promised to spare his superior’s life, as the commander reverted to his true demeanor, conversing freely with Jiang Cheng and his team, no longer exhibiting his prior timid behavior, indeed showing the commanding presence of a base commander.

Shorty stood by, not saying a word. Perhaps he was considering where to find a large sum to resettle those disaster victims.

The commander invited Jiang Cheng into the spaceship.
