A meteor fell from the dome, and Flana piloted the spaceship in a rapid descent, dodging the crisscrossing anti-air firepower that followed close behind, just grazing past the Merlot Building. Li Aozi grabbed Nikita by the shoulder and immediately activated the spacetime ripple, jumping onto the spaceship.
"—Damn it!"
Nikita had barely set foot on the corridor of the spaceship when he was pulled to the ground by the overload. Li Aozi casually grasped at the air, opening a gravitational field that left him in a state of weightless suspension, which finally brought him some relief.
"Head through the Ord Star Gate, go straight to Firewolf Star, they won't catch up to you."
"Hey, employer, this is way beyond the scope of my services!"
Flana jerked the nose of the ship up to its limit and shot straight for the atmosphere, with lasers and missiles crisscrossing in pursuit behind her, prompting an unwilling complaint.
"I'll pay you extra."
"Alright, boss."
