Everyone also wondered, are pirates really so rampant? Dare to openly attack the major academies, don't you understand that this is an enemy of the Federation?

"You have been staying in the academy for the past two years to participate in training, and you don't know the situation in the Federation in the past few years, so it's normal to ask such questions.

First of all, in recent years, the strength of the interstellar pirates in the Federation has grown rapidly, and most of the pirates used to use spaceships, or old and half-abandoned starships, and there are not many warships that can really form combat effectiveness.

However, in the past two years, I don't know what happened, and almost all of the pirates have replaced them with new warships. The strength has increased dramatically.

Secondly, a war between the Federation and the Empire may break out at any time, and the main fleet of the Federation will all be transferred to the front line, and the fleets that can be sent to deal with pirates are either not opponents or cannot be able to catch up with the pirate fleet. ”

"In this case, I am afraid that there are certain forces behind the pirates." Mo Qianxue Road.

"The Federation certainly understands this, but there is nothing it can do."

As they spoke, the crowd had boarded the landing ship and fastened security measures to themselves.

"Fortunately, Xingchen's cultivation has been delayed for some time, otherwise if we set off early, it is likely that we will also be attacked, for the sake of insurance, we should go on the road quietly, after all, we are not afraid of ten thousand, we are afraid of what happens."

The landing ship flew towards the outer space of the Blue Dragon Star.

In the empty space, the landing ship that Zhao Xingchen and the others were riding slowly moved into a starship, around

Anya led the group down the landing ship.

To Zhao Xingchen's surprise, he once again saw Ji Rou, who he hadn't seen for a long time.

Ji Rou was dressed in a dreadnought regimental uniform, giving people a heroic feeling, Zhao Xingchen felt that although Ji Roudi's name had a soft word, it gave people the feeling that they were thousands of miles away.

"Captain Ji Rou, I'm going to work hard for you this time."

Anya opened her mouth and said to Ji Rou.

"It's okay, after all, they're also my students, and there's no way I can see them in danger." Ji Judo.

"Hello instructor." Zhao Xingchen and the others said in unison.

"Now that everyone is here, there are a few things I want to make clear to you first.

We will most likely be attacked by pirates on this trip, and if that happens, I will lead my fleet to protect the starship and break out, and I hope you will seize the opportunity when the time comes. ”

Everyone's hearts sank, and it seemed that the matter was more serious than imagined.

If you think about it, it's not complicated, since the pirate target is the team participating in the mech competition, and his own team must be among the targets.

At this time, the teams of the other academies had almost reached the Emperor Star, and the pirates could fully concentrate their efforts on dealing with this group.

When a group of people go to Emperor Star, they must open the wormhole, from the Star Academy to the Emperor Star can open only a few wormholes, if the pirate's strength is really strong enough, he is fully capable of forcing himself and others out of the wormhole.

Wormholes are different from parallel space, to put it bluntly, wormholes are just space jumping techniques, and they are not separated from this cosmic space.

Space jumping technology is to make an object accelerate infinitely in a straight line, just like jumping directly over, we all know that objects moving in a straight line cannot encounter obstructive objects, wormholes, starships can only slow down in advance to dodge if they encounter blocks, or directly stop space jumping.

Sometimes, in order to avoid the obstruction of planets and other stars, you can open the space jump several times in the middle of the way, but then the speed will be greatly slowed.

This time, if the Star Academy and his party change their route halfway, they will definitely delay a lot of time and will not be able to catch up with the mecha competition, so no matter what is a sea of swords and fires along the way, they must also break through.

This time, the Star Academy Dreadnought Legion sent a battleship team led by Ji Rou, with three main battleships, sixteen frigates, plus a relatively advanced starship that Zhao Xingchen was riding.

After explaining clearly to everyone, Ji Rou returned to the main battleship led by him.

The three main battleships were the leader, and sixteen frigates followed, guarding the starships that Zhao Xingchen and the others were riding in the middle.

The fleet quickly sailed out of the range where the Star Academy was located.

Ji Rou did not choose to use the academy's special wormhole to go to the Emperor Star, but recalculated and opened up a wormhole outside the academy.

In the empty space, the fleet stopped, and the three warships led by it began to calculate the opening of the wormhole.

Soon, a vague hole appeared in front of the fleet, and it quickly grew in size until it could accommodate an entire warband.

The fleet entered the wormhole and disappeared in an instant, and then the wormhole slowly became smaller and disappeared, and the starry sky returned to tranquility.

Zhao Xingchen, Anya and the others sat in the starship and looked at the planet passing by outside the window, thinking about something.

Because the speed is so fast, the distant planet seems to be dragging a long tail and flashing by.

Soon two and a half days passed, and everyone went from worrying at the beginning to relaxing, and slowly began to adjust their mentality to prepare for the upcoming mecha competition.

Alert ...... Alert ......"

At this time, in the command room of the battleship where Ji Rou was, the alarm sounded loudly.

"Find out what the hell is going on as soon as possible!"

Ji Rou gave the order as quickly as possible to stabilize everyone's emotions.

"Report!"

Soon a report came from a subordinate.

"Report the enemy's strength."

"There are 1,500 enemy ships, and the other side has completely blocked our way and interfered with the operation of our team's wormhole, and our fleet is slowing down and is about to be forced to stop wormhole jumping."

"Hey, the fleet is slowing down, are we almost there?"

Mo Qianxue looked at the starry sky outside the window and wondered.

Everyone thought in their hearts, it stands to reason that it will take at least three days to use wormhole technology from the Star Academy to the Emperor Star, and it is only two and a half days, so it should be necessary to continue to sail in the wormhole for half a day.

Don't underestimate this half a day, if you don't rely on wormholes and only rely on starships to sail normally, this distance may not be able to reach at least hundreds of meters for thousands of years.

At this time, a light brain next to everyone suddenly lit up, and Ji Rou's figure appeared on it.

Ji Rou opened his mouth and said to everyone: "We have encountered pirates, I will lead the fleet to open up a gap in a while, help everyone break out of the encirclement, you gain control of the starship, after getting out of the enemy's encirclement, leave at the fastest speed, continue to drive in the direction of the Emperor Star, open the wormhole in the right position to go to the Emperor Star, I will lead the team to break the queen for you, don't worry, as long as you leave we will naturally have a way to get out." ”

Anya led everyone to the starship control room, and after some operation on the light brain in front of her, the starship exited the autopilot mode and switched to the human control mode.

Anya was able to stay in the driver's seat, and Mo Qianxue and Qin Keqing sat in the passenger seat respectively.

Concubine Ling, Zhao Xingchen, and Taishan sat in the back to observe the surrounding situation.

"Qianxue, can you do it?"

Zhao Xingchen couldn't help but ask Mo Qianxue, a little uneasy about her arrogant personality.

"Don't worry, my sister grew up in mecha simulators and battleship simulators, and it is not challenging to fly a starship of this level."

Zhao Xingchen noticed through the light brain in front of him that the fleet was gradually slowing down, and the planet next to it was clearly visible, and the fleet had stopped the wormhole jump.

According to the data of the light brain, there are actually more than a thousand pirate warships distributed in the surrounding starry sky.

The fleet finally stopped advancing, and in front of it, hundreds of pirate warships lined up one after another, and hundreds of pirate warships also came together on either side.

The fleet was surrounded.

The other party had already calculated everything, blocking the path of the Star Academy, this was a trap, but when the fleet found the trap, it was too late, and it could only fall into the trap that the enemy shot in advance.

Inside the battleship at the head, Ji Rou ordered again: "Break through immediately, prepare for the first round of attacks, turn on all the firepower of all battleships, and concentrate the fire on the fleet of pirates directly ahead." ”

The sixteen battleships were in full combat firepower, and countless cannonballs, energy bombs, and laser cannons were like a torrent of catharsis towards the pirate warships in front.

The fleet followed closely after the first wave of attacks, preparing to break through.

"Unleash all the attack planes and block the enemy's attack with all your might."

Ji Rou gave the second order, the attack plane, as a small unmanned aircraft, can automatically identify local attacks, fire interception and attack.

Then Ji Rou issued a third order: "The position of the main battleship remains the same, all the frigates from the top, bottom, left and right, and the rear, protect the starships, and the fleet rushes out of the encirclement at full speed in the form of a cone." ”

From Zhao Xingchen's point of view, explosions were everywhere around, but the starship that he and the others were riding on was not affected much.

Sixteen warships tightly guarded the starship in the middle, and the corvette's powerful interception ability intercepted all attacks from the pirates.

The outermost layer of the fleet is composed of tens of thousands of attack planes, which are constantly firing and intercepting pirate fire attacks, etc., and if they really cannot intercept them, the attackers will choose to die together with the enemy's attacks.

The main attack force of the fleet attacked the pirates in front of them in waves.

At first, the pirates' attacks were extremely ferocious, but as the two sides approached, the pirates' attacks gradually slowed down, because there were pirate ships on both sides, and the pirates feared that they would accidentally hurt each other.

At this time, the pirates also released the attack planes to fight with the attacks of the Star Academy, and the attack planes belonging to the Dreadnought Legion disappeared quickly.

The pirates seized the opportunity and launched powerful fire to attack the frigates, and although the fleet was fully defended, two frigates were shot and exploded in the air.

It was also at this time that Ji Rou's battleship broke out of the enemy's encirclement, and the rear battleship starship frigate followed.

The figure of Ji Roudi in the starship appeared in front of Zhao Xingchen and the others again.

Ji Rou in Tianxun said: "We have successfully broken through, from now on you will fully control the starship to sail to the Emperor Star, I can only send you here, I will lead the team to continue to block the pirates for a period of time, and then I will open the wormhole and return to the academy directly, and finally I wish you an excellent result in this mecha competition." ”

Ji Rou didn't talk to everyone almost, and cut off the heavenly news after speaking, everyone still had a lot of worries and questions to say, but Ji Rou didn't give everyone a chance.

At the last moment, Ji Rou took a deep look at Zhao Xingchen, and then resolutely hung up the heavenly news, no one knew what she was thinking at this time.
