Chapter 143 Space Pirates


Chapter 143 Space Pirates

When Duanmuhuai's battleship headed for the signal location, the girls also came over.

"What happened? Master?"

"Oh, it's nothing. We searched for a distress signal. It is very likely that a merchant ship was attacked by pirates."

"Huh?"

Hearing Duanmuhuai's introduction, the girls were all surprised. Even Gu Leiya looked at Duanmuhuai in surprise.

"Are there robbers in the universe?"

"How novel. As long as there is wealth and interests, there will always be thieves and robbers."

Duanmu Huai said casually while looking at the star map in front of him.

"Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the star pirates deliberately sent out distress signals to lure the surrounding fleets into their encirclement. After all, the world is so chaotic now..."

The reason why Duanmu Huai chose this star field is because it is the busiest transportation route for trade near the Holy City. Because of this, various space pirates often attack human caravans here. That's why Duanmu Huai came here to wait and see. After all, now that the human empire has come to an end, the order in the universe is basically zero, and anything can happen.

It didn't take long, and soon Duanmuhuai and his party arrived at the signal location, and then they saw a giant transport ship being attacked by another warship. The appearance of both sides is similar to Duanmuhuai's Glory Queen, but they are much smaller.

When Duanmuhuai saw the images of the two battleships on the screen, he was also stunned.

"Oh, this is so much fun."

No wonder Duanmu Huai would say this. The person being beaten up right now was a serious commercial transport ship, the Galaxy-class armed cargo ship, which was considered the most commonly used cargo ship in interstellar trade. It seems that this is not like the star thieves are playing some trick to invite you to the urn, they just simply caught a prey.

On the contrary, the appearance of the battleship that attacked the cargo ship was quite outstanding. Judging from its gorgeous platinum appearance and the array of up to fourteen macroguns on its sides, it could be seen that it should be a Holy Grail-class battlecruiser.

After all, the empire is a multi-turretist, and all the warships it builds adhere to the multi-turret romanticism of "more is beautiful, bigger is better". Even Duanmu Huai's Glory Queen is the same. Standing on the side of the ship is Looking out of the floor-to-ceiling windows, one can see layer after layer of huge steel macro cannons standing layer by layer below, with black muzzles ready to fire and blast the enemies in front of them into pieces.

The Holy Grail class can be regarded as a "high-speed heavy cruiser". Simply put, its original intention is to build a heavy cruiser that is fast, has flexibility and powerful firepower.

Of course, where can such a good thing be found? The Holy Grail class has been built, and it is indeed high-speed and high-attack. However, its armor is just like paper. It can be called a thief with high attack and defense among battleships. If you are criticized by others, you will probably be killed instantly.

Although the Holy Grail level has various problems, players still like it very much.

The reason is simple, it’s so handsome! !

After all, most players can't get battleships or flagships in the early stage, so the Holy Grail class is the most powerful battleship they can find in the early stage. Moreover, high attack speed and high speed are quite suitable for some players. As for the problem of paper defense... we can slowly change it.

But for Duanmu Huai, it is somewhat of a pity.

"It's a pity, it's a human being, it would be nice if those bean sprouts..."

Looking at the battlefield in front of him, Duanmuhuai shook his head helplessly

"Are you going to attack? Master?"

At this moment, the Holy Grail-class ship had entered Duanmuhuai's range, and Mia had already locked onto the target. When Duanmuhuai gave the order, she fired a volley of light spears and sent the opponent directly into the sky.

However…………

"No! It would be a pity if such a good thing exploded. Prepare to join the torpedoes!! Order the Night Guard to go to the launch site, let's join forces!"

Duanmuhuai gave the order excitedly, and then walked out of the command room, leaving only a group of girls looking at each other, wondering what Duanmuhuai was planning to do.

But for Duanmu Huai, he has been waiting for this day for a long time!

Gang hopping is a man's romance, fleets attacking each other are out of date! Not to mention that Duanmu Huai discovered that this Holy Grail-class ship didn't even raise its void shield. This was simply the best target to join the gang! You must know that in the game, the player's favorite thing is to join the gang. After all, what is more satisfying than tearing through the opponent's defense forcefully, going directly into the chaos, and finally making the opponent surrender physically and mentally and belong to you?

Soon, Duanmu Huai arrived at the torpedo launch site, and here, several figures like him, wearing black power armor, were standing there. They are the Night Guards, but they do not use their original form, but are attached to the power armor of the Space Marines in a way similar to soul possession. This not only ensures the combat effectiveness of these Night Guards, but also It also avoids the possibility of them being wiped out. At least even if the opponent finally breaks through the armor, they will only find that there is no one inside - and the Night Guard will jump directly back to the mothership.

Although they are very similar, Duanmuhuai still wants to declare that this is completely different from a certain scarlet letter warrior!

"Get aboard and prepare to fight!"

Following Duanmu Huai's order, the night guards attached to the power armor lined up and walked into the huge torpedo tube next to them. When they stood in the middle of the torpedo, the huge mechanical restraint stretched out. They were firmly stuck in place.

The next moment, several huge torpedoes burst out from the launch tube and shot straight towards the Holy Grail class in the distance! !

Perhaps too immersed in the attack on merchant ships, the Holy Grail-class heavy cruiser didn't seem to react until the torpedo came close. It hurriedly tried to change direction and avoid the attack. However, it was too late. The tip of the torpedo, which was like a drill, rotated and tore apart the outer armor, and then the huge black columnar object was inserted into the heavy cruiser's hull without mercy. As the front tip opened, the next moment, powerful warriors poured out of it and pounced on the core of the battleship like hungry wolves.

For Duanmu Huai, the internal structure of this kind of warship was as familiar as returning to his hometown. He rushed out of the torpedo in one stride and strode directly to the passage to the command room.

But…………

"Wow, it's really broken in here."

Looking at the dirty corridor in front of him and the leaky floor, Duanmu Huai couldn't help but sigh. He had previously wondered why the opponent did not raise the void shield. Now it seemed that due to the quality of this battleship, whether the void shield could still be used was a question.

Many places are empty, and even some places where machine slaves were originally installed have been dismantled. Well, it's not surprising. Most people don't have a good impression of machine slaves. Besides, it's been so many years. Fortunately, they have even forgotten the use of machine slaves. Maybe the machine soul of this battleship will be finished long ago.

The machine soul is like the artificial AI core of the battleship. Generally speaking, it is difficult to control the battleship without the machine soul, but that does not mean that it cannot be used without the machine soul. Of course, there are also many machine souls that will develop higher-level wisdom over the long years.

Duanmu Huai's Queen of Glory also does not have a machine soul installed, and most of the equipment relies on manual control. He plans to use their system to upgrade the control of the battleship after analyzing the Yajin technology. As for such a thing as a machine soul, ...If you can't use it, don't use it.

After all, he doesn't have a mechanical priest here who has nothing to do every day to sing binary hymns to machine souls.

"Over here!!"

Just as Duanmuhuai turned around a corridor again, he saw roars and chaotic footsteps coming from the other end. Then he saw a group of motley crew-like guys wearing tattered armor rushing over with guns in hand. After seeing the Duanmuhuai team, they were also stunned!

However, the next moment, an unexpected scene happened.

Facing Duanmu Huai, the murderous interstellar bandits collapsed almost instantly. Most of them dropped their weapons and ran back crying, while the remaining few held hands tremblingly. With the gun in his hand, he was so frightened that he shook like a bamboo pole when he saw Duanmu Huai striding towards him.

[Interstellar Pirate A comes into contact with the fearful aura]

[Passing appraisal...save failed! 】

[Interstellar Pirate A is in a state of panic! 】

[Interstellar Pirate C comes into contact with the fearful aura]

[Passing appraisal...Exemption successful! 】

[Interstellar Pirate B falls into a state of trembling! 】

"Hmph!!"

Looking at the system prompts in front of him, Duanmu Huai snorted coldly and looked away. Then with one round of the warhammer in his hand, he instantly knocked away the interstellar pirates who were standing there, turning them into a pile. Horrible rags were plastered on the walls. Duanmu Huai continued to move forward and rushed towards the battleship's command room.

At this moment, there was chaos in the command room.

"What's going on? Where did these people come from?!"

Looking at the scene on the screen, the star thief leader roared and slapped the table hard. In fact, he did not notice Duanmu Huai's battleship approaching. If the Glory Queen hadn't been too big, it might have hit him on the nose, and this idiot wouldn't even know what happened.

What made him even more unexpected was that the opponent would actually use such weird fighting methods! They actually put people in the torpedoes and then launched them directly!

While muttering to himself, the star thief leader thought of something and directly grabbed a thin figure who was sitting next to his chair and was tied by an iron chain, and lifted him up.

"You idiot! Why didn't you warn us of the danger! Say! If only you had told us earlier...!"

"Boom!!!"

However, before the star thief leader finished speaking, the door to the command room was kicked open. Immediately afterwards, Duanmu Huai strode in with a war hammer in his hand. Seeing his appearance, the star thiefs around him They were immediately startled, most of them screamed, turned around and ran away like crazy, while the rest rolled their eyes, foamed at the mouth, and fainted on the ground.

"Your evil deeds stop here, you bastards!"

Duanmu Huai roared angrily and looked at the star thief leader. Under Duanmu Huai's fierce and ferocious eyes, the star thief leader trembled. Then he looked at Duanmu Huai and fell to his knees.

"Hero, spare your life!!!"
