Danger and Splitting Up

"Has the distress signal been sent out yet‽"

In the main control room, the captain was covered in sweat while the operator at the side was panicking.

"Our communications have been jammed; all signals are blocked."

"Impossible, the communication device on Short Horn Star is a high-grade device brought from a galactic civilization. How do these scavengers have such high-grade equipment‽"

The captain was shocked and furious. Galactic long-range communicators had universality and diversity, causing signal blocking devices to be very expensive. Furthermore, the enemy had an 'anti-jump' device that could disrupt the space and prevent jumping.

The captain was devastated. These scavengers are way too well equipped!
