Chapter 669: Chapter 663 More Surprises â Part 2
âListen to my instructions now. Iâm going to test the energy block and cut off the shipâs main engine in a minute. Do you understand?â that Davis said.
âUnderstoodâ
âAll hands, all hands, we are about to conduct a test of the spacecraftâs energy block. In one minute, the main engine will be cut off.â The voice of the Flying Squirrel echoed through the speaker in the cabin.
âWeâll see if this will work,â Davis said to Finn Lewis, and then he turned back to the controls. A minute passed quickly.
âCountdown 3 seconds, Iâm cutting off the main engine.â The Flying Squirrelâs voice came through the communicator.
â3, 2, 1.â With the voice of Flying Squirrel, a humming sound was heard, and the power source of the spaceship was cut off. The countless green buttons in the cabin where Finn Lewis was located turned red.
âSwitch the primary propulsion to the backup power output,â Davis commanded, pressing a button.
âUnderstood. Switching in three, two, one.â As the Flying Squirrelâs voice echoed, a dull noise sounded. The lights in the cabin flickered several times, then returned to full brightness.
âEh, not bad.â Davis surprisingly nodded, then picked up his communicator without hesitation: âNow using the backup power output, is the energy percentage visible?â
âItâs visible. The backup energy is currently at 100 percent,â said Flying Squirrel.
âGood, now use the backup energy as the propulsion, and start the flight engine,â Davis told him.
âIt is currently at ninety-nine percent. Less than one percent was used.â
âSo, that means we only used slightly less than one percent. Give me an exact number,â Davis demanded.
âIâve shared the exact data with you, you can check it on the terminal system.â
Upon hearing that, Davis immediately said, âUnderstood. Switch the main power system back to the main engine in three minutes.â
âUnderstood.â
After finishing the conversation, Davis ran to the nearby control panel and began rapidly reviewing the data just shared. Since Finn Lewis had pledged most of his Roberts Coin at the Star Bank, all he had was placed in these energy blocks. He had a total of 50 blocks which were spread neatly on the floor. According to the test, the performance of these energy blocks was excellent and there were no problems using them here. With the energy issue solved, the remaining problem was cooling the jump engine.
It depends on how long the jump engine can maintain the jump. But as of now, the possibility of escape has increased.
Finn Lewis waited for about ten minutes, then the cabin door opened suddenly and Jasmine Davis walked in with a pale face. Seeing the blocks of energy on the floor, Jasmine paused, then recovered her stern face and asked in a deep voice, âWhat happened, Davis?â
âAh, Boss, youâre here. Donât worry, there was just a minor miscalculation during the test. The energy block was provided by this gentleman, remember him? I just didnât expect it to be this powerful. Oh wow, look at all these blocks,â said Davis, noticing the energy blocks Lewis had taken out and neatly arranged.
âHmm, so these are those energy blocks you have? Impressive,â Jasmine asked suspiciously, pointing at the energy blocks placed there.
âYes,â Finn Lewis replied with a nod.
âOf course, did you know how much power was inside this energy block? For just a small piece, it not only powers the entire spaceship, but also at fifty percent power output, it can bring the engineâs output power to 180.â Davis eagerly said before Lewis could respond.
