Chapter 469: Pirates are rampant

In a star-rated garbage dump in the northwest of the Moses Star Field, six warships of the "Shang Alliance" are 'exchanging' with a group of pirates. 35xs Both sides are full of fire, and they don't stop at all.

Two hours into the battle of "Boom~~~~", the main ship of the "Shang Alliance", the "Bo Pan Dynasty", sent out an energy cannon to bombard one of the pirate regiment's warships, directly shooting it down.

This was the first time since the start of the battle that the people of the Shang Alliance had made meritorious achievements, which naturally caused a burst of cheers from everyone.

With cheers, Captain Demichelis stood up, turned his head and waved to everyone, and at the same time said: "Okay, everyone has also seen that we are trying to turn the situation back, and please return to their respective positions first, so as not to affect our combatants." ”

"Wow~~~" Seeing the prospect of escape, these nobles naturally refused to accept Demichelis's request. Soon the command cabin was cleaned, and only the staff of the "Business Alliance" remained.

"Edward, report to me the loss of our ship's energy shield......" Demicellis said weakly as he sent the group of plague gods away.

"Report to the captain, the current loss of our energy shield has exceeded eighty percent, and it is about to enter an emergency. In addition, the loss of the 'Kitty Hawk' and 'Firebird' is also close to 70 percent, and the loss of the 'Pelican' and '' is also 60 percent. As for the Cormorant......"

"What happened to the Cormorant? Hmmm......" Before Demichelis could finish asking, he heard a loud bang.

"Boom~~~" Looking at the fire in front of him, Demichelis's heart was cold.

"The Cormorant's energy shield has lost more than 90 percent...... It's been destroyed. Edward swallowed and said unnaturally.

The corners of Demichelis's mouth kept 'twitching', he never thought that he had just shot down one of the opponent's warships, and one of his own warships followed in the footsteps of the other party. The manufacturing cost of an A-class battleship in 35xs is almost five times that of a B-class battleship, which is really not cost-effective.

The most important thing is that the six transport ships on his side are carrying nobles from various forces of the Human Alliance, and in addition to the Caesar Empire, there are also important guests of several other major forces of the Human Alliance, which is a big problem.

Demichelis's conjecture was quickly verified, and not long after the "Cormorant" was destroyed, the cacophony of VIPs sounded outside the command cabin.

"Open the 'door', Demichelis open the 'door' quickly! You want to give us an explanation why this is happening!? We have 'spent' a lot of money to hire your 'business alliance', you have not played your due role, we have to go to the international arbitration court to complain about you! ”

"Yes, just now or everything was under control, but now? The transport ship has been destroyed just now, and only a few dozen escape pods have been thrown out, and there are all of us mercenaries, everyone has the same hatred, and the people of the 'Shang Alliance' must give an explanation. Otherwise, when bad luck befalls us, there will be no one to help us. ”

The voices of these nobles outside the 'door' reached Demichelis's ears word for word. He secretly sneered: These guys say good words, but they are not actually for themselves? To put it bluntly, they just want to give themselves a guarantee. It's just that I can't give this guarantee.

"Michiko Yamaguchi, you go out and calm the emotions of our VIPs. Pay attention to the ways and means, and try not to conflict with them if you can. These guys are all people with some backgrounds, and they have more than enough success and more failure. Demichelis patted an Asian 'girl' on the shoulder and spoke.

"Well, give it to me, Captain." The Asian American 'woman' nodded slightly, her face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, and pressed the button for the maglev 'door' to open.

As soon as they saw someone coming out, these nobles suddenly suppressed the beautiful 'girl'. Someone shouted: "Miss Michiko, I don't care, you must give us an explanation." Haven't you always claimed to be the first in safety? Why is it not safe at all today, and will we dare to choose your merchant ships as transportation objects in the future? ”

Michiko Yamaguchi glanced at this guy and said angrily, "This gentleman, what time is it?" It's a time of war! We, the 'Business Alliance', dare to take this order, and it is not easy to come to the front line of the war to pick you up. Have you been cowardly to a little hardship on the road? If that's the case, we can now refund your commission in full, and you can escape in your own escape pod. ”

"Miss Michiko, what are you talking about?" Michiko Yamaguchi's tough tone made these nobles a little dissatisfied.

"Nothing, huh? I'm just telling the truth. You also saw the ending of the "Cormorant" just now, weren't those escape pods captured by the interstellar pirates? After they get caught, as long as you give enough money, maybe people will be able to afford to send you home. ”

Naturally, no one believes Michiko Yamaguchi's statement, who doesn't know that the interstellar pirates are cruel, as long as they catch the merchants, they have never had the habit of staying alive. They don't bother to kidnap and extort money, as long as they loot your cards and cash, and make you disappear. Simple and concise.

"What's the matter, do you want our 'Shangmeng' to refund the money? If not, now return to your position, our captain has already asked the commander of the Moses Star Domain, General Demacia, for support, I believe that reinforcements will arrive soon, what should you do, don't affect our captain's decision-making! ”

I have to say that rich people are cheap, and the more you talk to him, the more arrogant they become. But if you reprimand them violently, these guys won't dare to say anything.

After Michiko Yamaguchi put a gun and a 'stick', the nobles of the "'Bo' Dynasty", you look at me, I look at you, all of them are wilted. In fact, they also know that they are making trouble, and the contract signed by the "Business Alliance" and them is clearly written, if they encounter unpredictable factors, such as meteorite flows, electromagnetic storms, interstellar pirates, etc., the Business Alliance will try its best to save everyone's 'lives', but it cannot guarantee the safety of everyone.

By the time Michiko Yamaguchi returned to the command cabin, Demichelis had regained his composure, and he and the captains of the other four warships kept 'talking' to each other, reminding each other of some precautions.

Of the six warships sent by the Merchant Alliance this time, Demichelis is the strongest commander deservedly. Although the other five also have some strength, they are only students in front of him. So, he has enough prestige to command these captains.

"Chopin, pay attention to the two battleships on the left, they have 'pressed' close to you for hundreds of meters in just one minute, and have entered the 'firing' range of the energy cannon's intensive 'firing'. If the other party suddenly makes a move on you, I'm afraid you will be a little difficult to resist. ”

As soon as Demichelis's words fell, Chopin, the captain of the "Pelican", understood: "Captain Demichelis, I understand, I am distancing myself from them. ”

With the rapid movement of the "Pelican", it redistanced itself from the two warships of the other side, and finally turned the corner. Seeing this scene, Demichelis breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the current situation is still far from optimistic. Demichelis secretly estimated that he and the remaining four A-class warships could only hold out for an hour at most before they were all wiped out. Of course, if his "Bo Dynasty" wants to break through, it is not impossible. But in doing so, they would put their allies at risk.

Without the powerful containment ability of the "Bobian Dynasty", Demichelis believed that neither the "Kitty Hawk" nor the "Firebird" would hold out for ten minutes.

"Captain, didn't the Moses Star Domain say that reinforcements should be sent as soon as possible? Why is there no news so far? "Ed, the staff member on the side? Davis asked, a little unhappily.

Just Ed? Davis had been trying to reconnect with the Moses Domain's command, but news had been blocked. He knew very well that this must have been the interstellar pirates who reacted and took some action.

However, the first time his side was attacked, the information was transmitted, and the Moses Star Field also replied. But why haven't the reinforcements they said have arrived? Moses isn't too far away from here? An hour and a half is definitely possible.

Demichelis nodded to his persistent subordinate and said with a wry smile: "Ed, I know what you mean, and I understand your feelings. However, we also have to take into account the difficulties of others. The war is imminent, and our 'Shang Alliance' came to other people's territory under the banner of standing and took away a group of nobles, which is a bit inappropriate. The other party not only ignored the past suspicions, but also expressed understanding and support for our request for help, which is not easy. ”

Demichaelis thought for a moment and continued: "As far as I know, now that Princess Avril is also on Moses, General Demacia is not the only decision-maker. With Princess Avril's kindness, I think she will definitely send rescuers to save us. ”

Demichelis's words made the staff in the command cabin feel a little better. Indeed, as he said, Princess Avril is an excellent leader full of love in everyone's eyes. If it was really her who learned the news from her side, she would definitely not sit idly by.

"Michiko Yamaguchi, you release the temperature tester and measure the range of temperature changes within 10AU to prevent the temperature from being too high and affecting the performance of the energy shield; Ed? Davis, observe the changes in the position of the 'chaotic' rockslides around the battlefield, and send me the latest developments at any time. ”

After assigning tasks to his two right-hand men, Demichelis slowly paced to the captain's command seat to see if there were any suspected reinforcements on the nearby star map.

"Huh, what's that!?" Suddenly, a huge red dot appeared on the edge of the screen, which surprised Demichelis.
