Newbie Light Abuse

Although the Newbie Light Abuse's warship detected the main cannon's charging reaction at close range and initiated automatic evasion immediately.

The distance was too short.

Wang Dong's warship's main cannon fired high-energy projectiles that struck the Newbie Light Abuse's warship's rear flank, shattering the armor at the impact point.

The Newbie Light Abuse's warship was propelled by the powerful kinetic energy, losing balance momentarily as its hull tilted and began to spin.

"Estimated enemy ship rear armor damage at 80%, engine thrust reduced by 30%. This ship's main cannon recharge time is 50 seconds."

"Engage engines at third gear and approach the enemy ship from the zenith direction. Main cannon auto-lock attack, primary target is the enemy ship's engine."

After issuing the orders, Wang Dong relaxed, leaning his back against the comfortable captain's chair.

The Newbie Light Abuse's warship, having briefly lost its balance, was temporarily unable to retaliate. A few more main cannon volleys would be enough to send it packing.

As for approaching the enemy ship, it was to further increase the hit rate.

Approaching from the zenith direction was to avoid the Newbie Light Abuse's main cannon firing arc, preventing a desperate counterattack.

An easy victory.

"This opponent is a bit too weak. I hope the next match will pair me with a better one."

Wang Dong muttered with a smile.

Let alone the reborn Wang Dong, who had over a decade of experience piloting Kindling Warships and rich combat experience.

Even the pre-rebirth Wang Dong was considered a minor expert in Star Sea Expedition, easily dealing with rookies of this level.

One minute later, the second main cannon shot accurately hit the Newbie Light Abuse's warship's engine, causing damage. At this point, the battle was all but decided.

The Newbie Light Abuse's warship, having lost its propulsion, had no means to fight back and could only serve as a target. Defeat was only a matter of time.

"Mass-produced Scout-class Destroyer LV1 (ID: Newbie Light Abuse) is sending a communication request to this ship."

Suddenly, a communication request was accessed by the ship's optical computer. Wang Dong saw it was from his opponent, Newbie Light Abuse.

He initially didn't want to respond, as such communications usually consisted of curses.

However, on second thought, it was the first communication of the evening, so there was no harm in accepting it.

"Connect communication."

"Communication connected."

"Big bro, don't shoot! I have something to say, something to say!"

As soon as the communication connected, an anxious male voice came through.

"Oh, this attitude is quite proper."

Wang Dong was slightly surprised; it wasn't a barrage of insults.

"Cease main cannon charge."

His attitude was decent, so Wang Dong didn't mind spending a few minutes listening to what the other party had to say.

A peaceful game, a peaceful society.

"Thank you for sparing my life, big bro."

Judging by the voice, it should be a young man, speaking quickly, reflecting his anxious state.

"Is there something?"

Wang Dong asked in a gentle voice.

"Brother, please, can we discuss this? My win rate is about to drop below 50%. Could you do me a favor and let this match go? I'll naturally have a token of my appreciation."

Upon hearing Wang Dong's voice, Newbie Light Abuse immediately changed his address to "big brother."

"What token of appreciation?"

Wang Dong was slightly stunned and instinctively searched his interface, opening Newbie Light Abuse's record.

ID: Newbie Light Abuse, Wins: 148, Losses: 103, Draws: 45, Win Rate: 50%

Uh, his win rate was indeed about to drop below 50%.

"As long as big bro lets this match go and gives me a communication number, I'll immediately send you a small gift package."

Newbie Light Abuse quickly replied.

Wang Dong understood; he had encountered a legendary "pay-to-win" player.

A small gift package was the lowest tier of paid items in Star Sea Expedition.

Wang Dong himself didn't lack this small amount of money.

But that didn't mean Wang Dong would decisively reject Newbie Light Abuse's suggestion with an attitude of "I don't care about money, I'm a real man."

An insignificant game, and a young man's small pride, which was more important?

Who hadn't been young before?

Might as well do a good deed for the day.

"Alright, communication number is **59. I'll surrender as soon as the gift package arrives. If you don't trust me, then forget it."

Wang Dong chuckled.

"How could I not trust you, big brother? You look like the strong player type. Why would you lie to me about a small gift package? I've transferred it. Big brother, please check."

"Newbie Light Abuse" didn't hesitate at all, and even spoke quite nicely.

Wang Dong concentrated slightly, and the information interface of his personal smart terminal popped up before his eyes. He indeed found a message.

"User with communication number **31 has sent you a small gift package with a message: Big brother, please let me go. Please check."

Wang Dong clicked to claim, and the gift package benefits were successfully credited.

It was nothing more than little trinkets, like decorations for the command cabin.

"Alright, I've received your sentiment. Initiating surrender request."

"Request approved. ID: Han Feng, respected player, do you confirm initiating surrender? Once confirmed, a one-minute countdown will begin."

"Confirm."

"Countdown initiated: 60...59...58..."

Wang Dong initiated the surrender request very promptly. Amidst "Newbie Light Abuse's" incessant thanks, this match ended, with Wang Dong failing.

Casually rejecting the friend request from "Newbie Light Abuse," Wang Dong didn't immediately click to start the next match. Instead, he first opened his battle record.
