This included, after boarding the Battleaxe, relying on his previous life's accumulation, using outstanding performance and a small lie to gain Yuan Shu's trust.
He tried to see if he could avoid the trouble of the Yuan family's secret medicine.
But after careful consideration, he overturned this idea.
What if Yuan Shu saw Wang Dong's outstanding performance and increased his expectations of Wang Dong, changing the requirement to kill a direct descendant of the Jin family to destroy the Jin family, or not using the Yuan family's secret medicine but other more stringent methods?
What to do?
This is not impossible.
So in the end, Wang Dong still chose the most conservative and least variable option.
He continued to act dumb and take charge of the Battleaxe.
Only after gaining command of the Battleaxe, he made a strategic shift a little earlier.
With this slight time advantage, Wang Dong took the lead in piloting the Battleaxe into the depths of the asteroid belt, deftly evading the pursuit of the Jin family's warships.
Perfectly concealing his own existence while also preventing the Battleaxe from being severely damaged, maximizing the Battleaxe's combat power.
At this time, the most important thing for Wang Dong should have been to check the information left by Yuan Shu in the ship's onboard computer.
The Wang Dong of his previous life had indeed done so.
The more information he had, the clearer his understanding of the situation, and the more orderly his decisions would be.
The current Wang Dong naturally didn't need to review the Battleaxe's logs to learn about its combat methods, etc.
Decades of experience fighting the Jin family made him extremely familiar with the Battleaxe.
To be honest, even with his eyes closed, Wang Dong could complete the entire process of going to the toilet on the Battleaxe.
So far, Wang Dong's plan has been going smoothly.
"Since we have avoided direct contact with the Jin family's warships, we only need to wait for these two additional modules to complete their buffer and then we can return to the Mine Overlord II and continue mining operations.
This way, I can perfectly extricate myself from today's events and remain a normal interstellar miner.
The only hidden danger is whether the legendary Jin, who holds a grudge against everything, will, because they didn't find the Battleaxe, take it out on the miners in the mining area.
They don't need to target any specific miner, just a few random main cannon strikes, the resulting chain reaction will cause the gravitational turbulence in the nearby airspace to have a stress response.
The mine zone under such circumstances would be a living hell, near-space mining ships wouldn't be able to withstand it."
Wang Dong calmly deduced.
But so much time had passed and there was still no movement.
This hidden danger could also be ruled out.
Wang Dong stared intently at a small virtual screen on the right side of the command cabin.
He had specially pulled it out for the miniature probes he had launched earlier.
Two hours ago, there had been results.
The more than a dozen miniature probes he had deployed, after the effect of the M-type particles in that area disappeared, transmitted back their observations.
Less than an hour after Wang Dong directed the Battleaxe to make a strategic shift, a Seed Warship, also of the destroyer class, appeared there.
"It's that fellow, Sima De Cao."
From certain details of this warship, Wang Dong recognized it as the one that had beaten Wang Dong, the rookie captain, in his previous life.
If he said he didn't want immediate revenge, that would be a lie.
However, Wang Dong was still quite self-aware.
For now, he couldn't beat him.
Sima De Cao, a direct descendant of the Jin family, had the backing of his family and his resource allocation far surpassed what anyone could imagine.
His ship, with a comprehensive evaluation rating of over LV.11.
Compared to the Battleaxe's LV.6, it was already a tier difference.
In a direct confrontation, the Battleaxe's main cannon, unless it hit ten shots in a row, wouldn't even be able to break through the other ship's energy shield.
While the Battleaxe's energy shield might not even be able to withstand two consecutive cannon strikes from the opponent.
Of course, direct confrontation wouldn't work, but that doesn't mean there weren't other ways.
As in his previous life, even though the Battleaxe had been severely damaged, after Wang Dong temporarily escaped the pursuit, after spending several days pondering, he really found a way.
Using his familiarity with the astronomical environment, Wang Dong found a suitable ambush area.
There are often gravitational turbulences in the asteroid belt mining areas.
Some hidden gravitational turbulences are in a state of relative balance within themselves, and they are not usually noticeable.
But when external factors cause disturbances and reach a certain level, they will suddenly erupt.
This kind of hidden and powerful turbulence is considered the biggest trap by interstellar miners.
Wang Dong, with his years of experience in the mining area, found an area where such a powerful gravitational turbulence existed.
He first found an asteroid at a certain distance from the area and set up a large number of air mines.
Because this was in the asteroid belt, the warship's sky-scanning radar's effective detection range and detection accuracy were greatly reduced, so it was difficult to detect the air mine traps Wang Dong had set up due to the distance.
Then Wang Dong directed the Battleaxe to slightly reveal its whereabouts, and it was immediately pursued by the Jin family's warship that had been searching nearby!
