Xu Hao came to the main control room with a remote control mecha and just heard Lu Ruoyun's words.

An officer in the main control room asked, "Send encrypted interstellar communications?" What message to send? To whom? ”

Phoenixes said: "Sister Yun wants to use the empty city strategy, pretending that we are calling friendly troops, and preparing to scare off these pirates. It doesn't matter what message you send, they can't decipher it anyway, just let the pirates know that we've sent out an interstellar comm. ”

Xu Hao smiled: "Just send this sentence, your mother told you to go home for dinner, plus the interstellar coordinates here." ”

Phinex laughed when she heard this, but the officer meticulously encrypted the sentence and sent it out through interstellar communication.

Lu Ruoyun said: "Turn on the energy shield, and the spaceship will move forward at 60% speed." She and Fenix were also a little nervous, and it would be troublesome if the other party didn't get scared away and faced each other.

The one-eyed dragon in the pirate group looked at the rapidly approaching Firebird, his face changed, and a small leader under his command said: "There is a slight fluctuation in communication in hyperspace, and they sent interstellar communication. ”

The one-eyed dragon grabbed the leader: "If we attack with all our might, how long will it take to take this warship?" ”

"I've searched it, this military spaceship is the Firebird-type, a mass-produced warship of multiple level 3 civilizations. The shield and armor are particularly heavy, and it is a heavy warship with great firepower, and its performance is close to that of a small warship. We should be able to win with six to one, but even if we attack like crazy, we can't win it in half an hour. Boss, did you really decide to fight? This...... This is a military spaceship. ”

According to the shield and firepower, armed ships can be divided into four classes: warships, battleships, capital ships, and motherships.

The one-eyed dragon clenched his fists, and in half an hour other military warships had already arrived, and the military warships were never cruising alone, but a small fleet, not too far apart from each other, and they could support each other at any time.

As long as there is one more military warship, it is impossible to fight it yourself. And to start a war with the military, that's not a joke, not to mention that the chances of winning are slim, and even if you win, it's a hornet's nest. That country will definitely offer a bounty to hunt down itself, and if the prize is high enough, even if the universe is big, it will be difficult to have its own place.

If the prize is high, those fellow pirates may have to kill themselves and claim the prize with their own heads.

The one-eyed dragon saw that the other party was flying towards him without fear, and he hesitated for more than twenty seconds before squeezing out a word from between his teeth: "Withdraw!" "The six pirate ships turned around and left.

In the main control room of the Firebird, Lu Ruoyun breathed a sigh of relief, and Phoenix and Xu Hao both shouted: "Okay! ”

Lu Ruoyun ordered again: "The robot troops will go and receive the four ships, and the Firebird will chase after me, catch up at full speed, and all the energy cannons will be fired." ”

If the six pirate ships retreated at the same speed, and fought back while retreating, the Firebird really couldn't take advantage. However, the six sea ships had different performances, and they all retreated at full speed, some faster and some slower, and the distance between them widened.

You can't blame the one-eyed dragon for being afraid, the pirate group met the military like a mouse met a cat. He had no doubts about the identity of the Firebird's military, and regular military warships would hardly fall into the hands of other groups. The Firebird was captured by the pirate group, which is a rare exception.

Phinex was very excited: "Hit, hit me hard." ”

The Firebird caught up with the slowest of the pirates, and the energy cannons bombarded in unison. It didn't take long for the ship to only 8% of its energy shield to be left, and if it continued to fight, it wouldn't be long before the ship exploded. The Firebird sent out a clear code communication: "Surrender or kill!" ”

Soon the pirate ship replied: "We surrender." ”

Lu Ruoyun ordered someone to give the order: "Turn off the energy shield, extinguish the reactor, and let the robot get on board." ”

The pirate ship agreed, and the Firebird ceased fire, sending robots aboard the pirate ship to accept the pirate's surrender. During this time, the other five pirate ships were gone.

The second and third groups of combat robots successively sent pirate ships, seized the pirates' guns, and took control of the ship's main control room, reactor, weapons depot and other important cabins.

I originally imagined a big battle, but I won it so easily.

Xu Hao said: "Let's get out of here first, when the pirate ship robbed those civilian spaceships, maybe the escort warship of the mercenary group had already sent a distress signal, so let's leave this place first." ”

"yes, you can't stay here for too long." Lu Ruoyun didn't want to stay here longer, in case the support of the mercenary group came, it would be difficult to do. As soon as they took over the pirate ship, they forced the four ships to leave the area together.

Five hours later, they leapt out of hyperspace.

Stopping here to deal with the captured spaceship, Xu Hao, Lu Ruoyun and Fenix remotely controlled mecha boarded the luxury cruise ship.

In the first-class hall, Xu Hao said to the passengers: "We are a mercenary group specializing in hunting space pirates, and you have been rescued." You all move to the cargo ship that transports the minerals, and drive that ship back. ”

One passenger had the courage to ask, "Why can't we go back on this cruise ship?" ”

Still want to go back on a luxury cruise?

Xu Hao sneered: "Your four spaceships were captured by the pirate group, and we snatched it from the pirate group again. According to the general interstellar law, we have seized the property of the pirate group and it belongs to us. So these four ships belong to us. Based on humanitarian principles, we have given you one of the two cargo ships so that you can return home. ”

"But how does a cargo ship carry people?"

Xu Hao waved his hand: "So, you don't want a cargo spaceship?" Well, save a boat. ”

The other passengers hurriedly said, "No, no, no, we want a cargo spaceship." Your Excellency, Commander of the Mercenary Regiment, thank you for your kindness, and we will leave in a cargo ship. Just wish you would give us enough food and water. ”

The passengers were already frightened birds, and the gang that ran away from the pirates didn't seem to be good, and they were lucky not to sell themselves as slaves, how dare they ask for as much as the brainless passengers?

"Half of the food and water on the cruise ship will be given to you, and within four hours, you will all be on the cargo ship, and you will not wait. The remaining three ships have supreme authority transferred to us. ”

The passengers did not dare to say more, half of the food and water were enough. They hurriedly packed their bags and walked from the makeshift aisle to the cargo ship. The cargo ship dumped some minerals, and there were many cargo holds, which were more than enough to hold these 30,000 passengers, but there were no beds and no furniture, and the journey was hard. But it's a blessing to be able to pick up a life.

Sending off the passengers of the cruise ship and the mercenaries of the escort ship, they again shifted places.

The harvest was huge, capturing a mercenary escort ship, a pirate ship, a cargo ship and a luxury cruise ship.

Originally, the cargo ship was more useful to Xu Hao, but the cargo ship that transported the minerals was too old and would be decommissioned in a year or two, while the luxury cruise ship was brand new and could serve for two hundred years, so he left the cruise ship.

"Go back, go back and rest."

The captured escort warship was numbered Firebird No. 2, and the pirate warship was numbered Firebird No. 3, so that Xu Hao had three warships. Needless to say, the Firebird military warship is absolutely powerful; Firebird II is a mercenary ship, and its performance is also more advanced than that of most pirate ships.

Lu Ruoyun said: "Our strength is enough to register an interstellar mercenary group." Let's hang on to a level 3 civilization country and set up a mercenary group. It's easy to get things done with an official status. ”

With legal status, it was convenient to repair the ship and replenish ammunition later.

Mercenary groups accept a variety of missions, and there are many subdivisions. There are those who specialize in escort tasks, escort merchant ships and passenger ships, and live by collecting escort fees. There are also those who are employed by a certain country and participate in the war of that country, this kind of mercenary group is a behemoth, and usually the mercenary group that has developed to this stage will be the next step is to establish a country.

There are also mercenary groups dedicated to fighting pirates, and this kind of mercenary group is also very popular with various countries, after all, pirates are public enemies. The existence of pirates is very harmful to interstellar trade, and normal countries will severely crack down on space pirate groups.

Xu Hao has three warships, and his strength has been greatly enhanced, and if he encounters a pirate group with the strength of the one-eyed dragon, he can also eat it. With this foundation, we can grow and grow like a snowball.
