Becoming a Wizard by Starting From the Mind Closure Technique

Chapter 659: Chapter 185 Appetizer_3

As long as it does not affect the execution of the task, the chess player or players behind the scenes in the academy shouldn’t impose any punishments.

After all, what is not prohibited by law is allowed.

“Increase the speed, and adjust the course.”

Sitting in the captain’s seat, Link, who had thoroughly considered his decision, gave a completely new order to Tower Spirit.

This order was surprising to not only the 11 crew members but also Sage Fletcher Domingo, who had been lurking in the shadows.

What is he trying to pull by springing this surprise?

“Warning! Warning! This order does not comply with the preset tasks for this voyage.”

Tower Spirit didn’t immediately accept the order, but instead sent out a reminder.

Seeing the warship automatically set off after the team had assembled, Link had already expected this.

But regardless of the preset task, Link had once again issued the same order: “Increase the speed, modify the course.”

“Warning! …”

As Tower Spirit started the second warning reply to Link.

Link suddenly flipped over the smart brain situated on the captain’s seat and pressed a red button on the back.

Go to 𝗈𝘃𝗴𝘰.co

This button is generally not used at all.

Once used, the interstellar battleship would be stagnant for quite some time.

Just like now, the lights, facilities, equipment, and engine within the “Lark” class interstellar battleship all suddenly shut down.

Even the interstellar battleship itself lost power and began to slow down after its engine suddenly turned off.

Link had actually activated an emergency measure, and using the captain’s authority, he manually uninstalled the Tower Spirit of the interstellar battleship!

Just shut up already.

A moment later, the back-up Tower Spirit of the interstellar battleship was successfully activated.

The spare Tower Spirit went online, taking control of the battleship.

The lights one after another lit up, and all sorts of facilities and equipment resumed operation.

The engine restarted and produced thrust, increasing the speed of the battleship.

The screens of the smart brain at the operation station of the 11 crew members, the screen in front of Link, and the large main screen right in front of the cockpit lit up simultaneously.

Rows of data and commands, like waterfalls, flooded the screen.

But Link’s operation didn’t end there.

His fingers flew across the recently lit smart brain screen, inputting one command after another.

At the same time, Link used the brain-machine link to directly take over the highest authority of the substitute Tower Spirit, continuing the “refresh”.

All the preset settings made by the academy, the later moves of control, were all cleared by Link one by one.

All the authority of the interstellar battleship, even the bathroom’s flushing, was personally taken over by Link without any omission.

The 11 crew members, without any prompts from Link and facing sudden changes, kept their doubts to themselves. No one stepped forward to question Link’s operations even if they held different opinions.

Sage Fletcher Domingo had made it very clear that they should follow Link Grande’s commands during the mission.

Captain Link Grande had also given them the chance to express their thoughts.

Despite a Level Five Sage leading the team and a captain with a power comparable to a Tier 3 Witch, none of them threatened anyone, but their underlying meanings were clear.

No matter what you want to say, you can only speak when I give you the opportunity to do so; if I don’t give you the chance, don’t fucking say anything.

Otherwise, be careful I might just kill you.

That’s roughly the idea.

Not long after, under the watchful eyes of the 11 bewildered crew members, Link completed the planned four-step operation:

Uninstall Tower Spirit, activate the standby Tower Spirit, “refresh” the standby Tower Spirit and take over all authority of the warship.

Only now, Link truly held the control of this “Lark” class interstellar battleship and officially became its true captain.

Instead of a puppet with nothing but the title of a captain without any real power.

All pre-set programs of the academy were discarded, and it no longer had remote control over this “Lark” class interstellar battleship.

All these were the knowledge and measures Link had learned from studying Alchemy and alchemical construction of Nest Warships.

Once used, it would secure the initiative for Link.

Knowledge changes fate.

After manually inputting the brand new speed, route, and target, Link removed his hands and gaze from the smart brain screen. He looked at the 11 crew members, making eye contact with each of them.

After a moment, Link asked in a deep voice, “Does anyone have any questions? Whatever you want to say, say it. If I can answer, I will.”

Lanny Taylor was the first to stand up, braving the gaze of the other crew members, she said, “I think if the captain has any thoughts about this mission, he can tell us honestly. If we communicate in advance, we can cooperate towards the same goal when things happen, rather than scattered and not united.”

“Hmm. Good suggestion.”

Link nodded, “Do you all agree?”

“Agree.”

“Agree.”

Voices of agreement came one after another.

The remaining 10 crew members, whether they were First Level Wizards or Second Level Wizards, all agreed with Lanny’s view.

“I have no thoughts.”

Facing all sight lines, Link calmly said, “So far, regarding this mission itself, I have no thoughts. Because the situation is unclear.”

After a pause, Link countered with a question: “Among you, does anyone know the background and purpose of this mission?”

No one answered.

The academy recruitment is different from personal recruitment.

The former is compulsory, with a maximum of twice a year, while the latter is mutual choice.

In a 12-person team, except for Link, who was recruited by both the academy and Sage Fletcher Domingo, the rest were all drafted by the academy.

Therefore, even though the task explanation was unclear, everyone had no choice but to go with it.

After getting on the battleship, they finally received the task details distributed by Link.
