Chapter 724: Pirates are rampant

"How's it going?" Chen Tianci asked through the communicator.

The one who was talking to him now was the commander of the fleet that Ye Feng had transferred to him. And this person happens to be Zhao Yi, who once had a relationship with Chen Tianci.

Zhao Yi was originally just a small leader of a patrol boat.

But his sticking to his post and his conscientious performance left a deep impression on Chen Tianci.

Therefore, Chen Tianci recommended him to Ye Feng.

Under the inspection of Ye Feng and other senior officials of the United City-States, Zhao Yi was successfully promoted and entered Ye Feng's city defense army system. He is part of the Rapid Reaction Fleet under Ye Feng's command, and mainly deals with emergency responses in the waters near Heping City.

As a result, he was qualified to command a small fleet and became a fleet commander.

This time, because Longtu's fleet was all scattered in various cities of the United City-State, responsible for protecting the merchant ships and carrying out the work of cleaning up the pirates in the coastal area, there was no manpower.

So, Ye Feng transferred Zhao Yi's small fleet to Chen Tianci.

This fleet has a total of ten warships, of which three are heavy warships, one of the remaining seven is a supply ship, and the remaining six are rapid reaction warships, which are known for their maneuverability.

After Chen Tianci joined them, he rushed to the nearest place where a merchant ship had been attacked by pirates.

Today, they're on the ground to survey the situation.

"It's bad." Zhao Yi's response came from the communicator, "There is no living mouth on the ship, all of them are killed." ”

The attack was on a merchant ship carrying large quantities of paddy. More than 100 people on board were killed in the attack.

When Chen Tianci and the others arrived, the rice on the merchant ship had already been robbed, and only the bodies of the dead crew members remained.

"What about our security guards on board?" Chen Tianci asked again.

"They were all killed." Zhao Yi's tone was heavy.

On this ship, there are a total of more than a dozen security personnel equipped by the United City-State. Their main task is to protect the ship.

The rice on this merchant ship was all of fine varieties from the islands of the United City-States. Other city-states had very few islands, so there was a high demand for paddy.

However, the survival rate of rice grown under the sea is extremely low, so the price of rice in the market is extremely high.

A pound of rice is about the price of twenty silver coins. This is already the income of an ordinary person for more than a year.

According to this price, the rice on the merchant ship that was attacked was worth more than 10 million.

"How's the black box going?" Chen Tianci narrowed his eyes and asked.

"It's pretty good. Most of our security guards died near the secret room where the black box was kept. Zhao Yi said.

"Send it back immediately to decipher. I'd like to see who is so bold. Chen Tianci said coldly with murderous aura.

Zhao Yi answered and turned off the communicator.

Chen Tianci rubbed his swollen temples, and secretly summarized the news in his heart.

Since his disappearance, the United City-State has been constantly attacked by various pirate gangs and pirate legions. Their main targets were the trading fleets of the United City-States.

And as soon as the fleet of the united city-states was dispatched, they immediately flinched.

In the absence of accurate information from the other side, the fleets of the United City-States were unable to carry out targeted clearance operations, so they could only disperse their fleets and protect all trade routes.

Ye Feng and others even set up a security team, the main task of which is to station various trading merchant ships and provide security protection.

But even so, the pirates and pirates still run rampant. After the dispersion of Longtu's fleet, the strength was correspondingly much weaker.

The pirates are constantly using guerrilla tactics, and where the defense is weak, they will appear there, making it impossible to guard against them.

While Longtu's fleet was exterminating pirates and pirate gangs everywhere, it also suffered a lot of damage to itself.

And trading merchant ships often appear as Chen Tianci sees today.

Not only was an entire merchant ship looted, but its crew and security personnel were also killed.

Such a murderous act made Chen Tianci's killing intent overflow uncontrollably.

Now, all the clues are on that black box. Most of the black boxes of the merchant ships that were attacked before were completely destroyed, and only a small part of the black boxes were preserved.

Most of the black boxes that have been preserved have suffered damage that is difficult to repair, and only some of the information can be restored.

Now, the black box obtained by Chen Tianci and others is the only one that is still intact.

Chen Tianci thought for a while, turned on the communicator again, and sent a message to Zhao Yi: "Give me the black box." I personally sent it back. ”

Zhao Yi was stunned for a long time before he reacted.

"Head, you want to deliver it yourself?" Zhao Yi was a little surprised, "Leave this matter to us." ”

"Nope." Chen Tianci vetoed, "This is the only one that is intact." There may be very important information in it. Judging from the desperate protection of the secret room by our security guards, they should have recorded a very important content. ”

"That's good." Zhao Yi answered, and then came to Chen Tianci's ship with the black box.

Chen Tianci instructed Zhao Yi and others to continue to stay at the scene to investigate the situation, collect the bodies of the victims, and take them to the nearest subordinate city of the United City-State for burial.

And he himself got on a fast combat ship and rushed towards the central research room where Wuji was.

All scientific and technological research throughout the United City-State is now under the control of Wuji.

In order to show his personal extraordinary, he deliberately gave his research institute a domineering name, that is, the Central Research Office of the United Earth City-State and the only superlative research institute of each city-state, referred to as the Central Research Office.

This strange name was funny, but everyone only dared to claim that it was the central research laboratory of the United City-State, and no one dared to say its real name.

It's too embarrassing to say this, and it's too hateful.

This kind of consciousness is not available in Wuji.

Therefore, when Chen Tianci arrived, Wuji was pouring out his bitterness at a researcher who asked for advice on scientific research issues.

"Brother is such an invincible name in the universe, they actually simplified it, it's too nonsense! Such an invincible and domineering title, as soon as it starts, those small city-states outside with cats and dogs have already come to beg for surrender, where are these dirty things now! He said indignantly.

As soon as Chen Tianci pushed open the door of the research institute, he heard this content, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.

He followed the sound and looked over. Wuji, who was seeing the appearance of a child, pointed at a big man who was more than half his body taller with an uneven face, chattering endlessly, and vomiting bitterness.

"Ahem." Chen Tianci smiled faintly and coughed lightly.

Wuji heard the voice and looked over.

As soon as he saw Chen Tianci, his face immediately showed an angry look.

"Holy! You're a ghost, you didn't make a sound when you came in. Brother is publishing important scientific research results, you have nothing to do with it. He looked at Chen Tianci with some annoyance.

Chen Tianci secretly smiled bitterly in his heart.

This Wuji is very stingy. At the beginning, that strange name was given by Chen Tian to simplify and not be announced to the public, but he was hated by this guy.
