Chapter 51: Burden Reduction

"Dong Qianqian!"

Zhang Tianjiu roared.

"Report to the captain, it's over......"

Dong Qianqian appeared in the hologram panting, covered in oil, sweating profusely, and almost collapsed from exhaustion. Dong Qianjin is also a member of the Changnan tribe, an inferior person of the fourth caste, who was able to serve as the deputy director of the power cabin on the Royal Glory, and this person's strong technical ability can be imagined.

Without very special abilities, the nobles would never make such an exception to an inferior person.

Zhang Tianjiu stretched out his fingers like a small radish and pushed the afterburner state to the end on the computer touch screen.

The entire spaceship shook violently, and everyone could clearly feel that the speed of the spaceship had increased a lot in an instant, which was very rare. Usually inside the spaceship, it is relatively stationary, and the passengers cannot feel the speed of the spaceship.

It's really a special situation right now.

The members of the cockpit looked at the data on the big screen, and they were dumbfounded, their mouths wide open enough to fit their entire arms.

Twelve-level afterburner!

Three levels of maximum afterburner exceeding the design.

This is already enough to catch up with the maximum speed of the destroyer.

Transport ships are notoriously heavy and slow, and they are not at all comparable to combat ships. Especially after being converted into a luxury cruise ship, so many additional decorations make the cruise ship full at all times, and the speed is even slower.

And now they have gained the speed of a destroyer.

"Report to the captain, the enemy is at a distance of 90,000 kilometers from us, with a relative velocity of minus 250 kilometers per second, and contact will come into contact after six minutes. ”

The navigator nervously reported.

Even though they had reached the twelfth level of afterburner and had gained unprecedented speed, they were still very scummy compared to the archmage's speed.

Six minutes!

It's not a time that sounds so exciting.

"Little Pink, how's it going?"

Zhang Tianjiu's bright head also began to sweat.

The damn artificial intelligence is still in good shape, in his mind, there is no danger of the word, and he said slowly: "What are you anxious about, am I not preparing for this?" According to the data, the monks of Cuimei Mountain are not known for their speed, and this speed is almost close to their limit, and the average archmage only looks like this. ”

In Zhang Tianjiu's brain, all the information about the Xiuzhen civilization collected by the scientific and technological world for more than three hundred years is stored, even if it is just some hearsay and unverified information, it is also included.

Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles.

This phrase will never go out of style at any time.

Whether it is Cuimei Mountain or even Nan'an Kingdom, it is not a strong person in the Xiuzhen world, and its status is roughly the same as that of Noray Star in the Interstellar Alliance, a remote and barren land.

The level of monks in such a remote place is relatively low.

The same high-level archmage, compared to those monks of famous sects, there is a big gap between them in all aspects.

However, for the "ants", this comparison is meaningless.

"Judging from their flying magic weapons, they don't seem to be bad......"

Zhang Tianjiu was still a little worried.

"No matter, let's reduce the burden first. As long as we can make it to the Lear asteroid belt, we can get out!"

Little Pink said.

"Bang-"

The door of Cargo Hold 9 was opened, and countless suitcases and cargo boxes were thrown into space without warning, including three waiters. The three waiters were lucky, and did not advance to the concentration area in time, so they hid in the warehouse and thought they were relatively safe.

After all, the ninth cargo compartment is full of the luggage of the great nobles, including the luggage of His Excellency the Governor.

This is no ordinary trip, but an escape.

Almost all the nobles who got on the ship carried as much luggage as they could, which was all money. Famous paintings, even heavy sculptures, mahogany furniture and the like, were brought onto the ship.

In addition to carrying only personnel and the necessary food and water, the Royal Glory can carry at least 40,000 people. Now, there are only more than 10,000 people on the entire cruise ship, including the staff, and a large amount of valuable tonnage is used to carry these valuable luggage.

However, they were unlucky and encountered the monster Zhang Tianjiu.

Seeing that the luggage and cargo in the No. 9 cargo warehouse were thrown into space in an instant, earth-shattering cries and curses sounded in the concentration area.

That inferior person who killed a thousand knives!

If you make it back to Mogaard alive, you must send this bastard to the gallows.

No, no, send him to the most famous prison and make him a rabbit for the rest of his life!

Before everyone's cursing subsided, the No. 8, No. 7, and No. 6 warehouses were opened one after another, and all the priceless luggage and cargo were unceremoniously thrown into space.

Cargo Holds No. 5, No. 4 and No. 3 contain the reserve storage of the Royal Glory. As an ultra-long-range luxury cruise ship, the Royal Glory has an extremely sustaining power, and can hold out on its own for years even when fully crewed in space.

These reserve stores include food, medicine, liquor, drinking water and other luxuries.

Now they're all discarded.

In other words, in the future trip, the nobles will have a more difficult time, and many of their enjoyment will be gone.

"Captain, the things in the second and first cargo compartments can't be lost!"

The captain sitting in the passenger seat finally couldn't help it and reminded loudly.

"It's all back-up parts and back-up energy. ”

This is the real guarantee of a long-range space journey, without which once the spacecraft is damaged, it will have to wait for death. And navigating in space, even the most mature ones, can encounter unexpected situations.

"Let's look at the present!"

Zhang Tianjiu gritted his teeth and snorted, his fingers clicked without hesitation, the second and first cargo compartments opened the hatch at the same time, and spare parts and backup energy poured out, and they were out of sight in a blink of an eye.

"Except for the power cabin, the damage management team and all other staff members are assembled in the damage management department!"

"Right now!"

"I'll give you three minutes, and whoever doesn't arrive on time will be killed on the spot!"

Zhang Tianjiu's voice became extremely cold and full of murderous aura.

"The captain stays, the first mate, the second officer, and the third officer, and immediately go to the damage management department, and you will be responsible for the next operation. ”

The first officer, second officer, and third officer who were in the cockpit didn't say a word, turned around and ran out. When Sergei was killed on the spot, they immediately learned to unconditionally obey the orders of the new captain.

It's clear that no one wants to do it.

Zhang Tianjiu's order to them was to dismantle all the things on the ship that were not needed and throw them all into space. What is something that is not needed? The criteria are simple – keep the minimum amount of food and water, and throw everything else away.

Of course, the computer will give them a demolition list directly.

Caroline, Anthony Wei, Bury, Casper...... Tolsi, you also go to the damage management department and supervise these guys to move quickly. ”

Zhang Tianjiu went on to roll call.

When it came to Caroline and the others, no one was surprised, they were his subordinates, but they didn't expect that Tolsy was also named, could it be that Master Tolsy really had a close relationship with these barbaric inferiors?

It's just that at this moment, no one dares to question it.

The two archmages are closing the distance between them step by step.

"Senior brother, what are they doing here?"

Looking at the piles of luggage and cargo that had been thrown out of the spaceship, the hideous man driving the chariot turned his head to the side in some surprise and asked.

"Load off. ”

The long-bearded senior brother who stepped on the flying sword said indifferently.

"Load off?"

The hideous man's face was covered with black lines.

"They think they can run away if they throw something away?"

Tynyima is naΓ―ve, right?

"It's not entirely impossible if they can accelerate further. ”

The bearded man's voice was still calm.

The clumsy cruise ship ahead was also really weird, and it actually ran faster than their warship. It's kind of weird.

"Hmph, I don't believe it, I can't catch up with a civilian boat?"

The hideous man was obviously enraged, and suddenly exerted force under his feet, and a powerful mana poured into the chariot, and the quaint and hideous chariot suddenly accelerated and chased forward.

"Report, Captain, enemy, enemy is accelerating again - relative velocity minus four hundred kilometers per second, contact ...... after three minutes"

The navigator's voice trembled, revealing endless despair.

I know I can't run away!

What's the toss?

The concentration area is also all kinds of cries and despairs.

Ma Dan, he still couldn't run away, and he was humiliated by an inferior person in vain, especially the Governor of Gregory, who was even more pale. He believed the words of the inferior man, and ordered the captain to surrender and hand over control of the ship.

Disgrace!

It's a real shame!

Even if everyone will be killed by the monk next, turned into a dried corpse in space, or a rain of blood, this shame will still not be erased, and it will go deep into the bone marrow.

"Report to the captain, contact in two minutes!"

"One Minute ......"

In the hologram, the chariot of the hideous man had chased close at hand, and his hideous smile could be seen clearly.

"Damn ants, look where you're going!"

The hideous archmage raised his spear in the air.

This is his magic weapon!

The tip of the spear shone with a dazzling sheen, arcing in all directions, and it was rapidly absorbing cosmic energy and turning it into its own attack power. In the dark space, the hideous man is like a god of war.

"Ant! Die!"

The hideous man roared, the spear turned into lightning, and with a thunderbolt, he slashed straight ahead of the Royal Glory, like thunder!

Compared to the Royal Glory, this spear was completely negligible. But just now, it was this spear that blew up at least ten escort ships.

"Ah......h

Exclamations, screams, and deep despair enveloped the ship.

At this moment, the huge Royal Glory also suddenly burst into light, shining with red light all over.

The entire ship shook violently, and many people were unsteady on their feet and almost fell to the ground.

Just as the spear was about to catch up with the ship, the royal glory suddenly exploded, and pieces of metal shells flew up and shot backwards.

For a time, there were sparks in space.

The spear pierced through one piece after another of the metal shell, finally running out of energy.

With a violent explosion, the Royal Glory accelerated again, and soon distanced itself from each other again.
