Chapter 6: The First Stop—Jupiter
Now, not far from Earth, there are several warships undergoing emergency repairs, all of which are the warships of Vice Admiral Weasel.
And here, just a few minutes ago, Vice Admiral Weasel's fleet was beaten to the ground by the protagonist's Nebula, and most of the warships were in a state of emergency repair.
And Lieutenant General Weasel was also angry and vowed to catch Ling.
At the same time, Philip Shaozo, who was on Earth, also learned the news, but because Vice Admiral Aili was not allowed to continue the pursuit, Philip Shaozo could only send several ships to rescue Vice Admiral Weasel and tow Vice Admiral Weasel's fleet to the Earth Alliance's special space station for repairs.
However, Lieutenant General Weasel was very dissatisfied, so as soon as he arrived at the Earth Alliance's dedicated space station, he immediately took a shuttle to Earth to find Lieutenant General Eli.
Lieutenant General Weasel ignored the obstruction of the soldiers outside Lieutenant General Eli's office and directly pushed open the door of Lieutenant General Eli's office.
[Hey!] Eli, you guy, actually ganged up with pirates to deal with me, what do you mean! If I report to the Alliance, you'll wait to go to a court-martial! ]
After handing over the documents that had just been processed to Filly, Lieutenant General Eli let Filly leave, while he sat in his chair and watched the angry Lieutenant General Weasel.
[Look, I can't speak, I know it's not good to call me!] ]
[Weasel, you said that I was in tandem with the pirates to deal with you, which eye did you see!] Where am I connected with pirates! You can't deal with it yourself, blame me! ]
[You guy, at least you deliberately let that pirate go, this is a crime!] ]
[I deliberately let it go?] By the time I got to their base, it was too late, and they were already on board. What's more, you are the one who really did the wrong! ]
[Am I wrong?] Joke! Where did I go wrong! ]
[I went to capture them for building a ship without permission.] However, when they have boarded the ship and flown away from Earth, they are unregistered vessels. For unregistered ships, the most they can do is to register quickly, and if they do not register within 10 days, they will be classified as pirate ships. And this registration is timed from the first sight of the spaceship by anyone in the Alliance.
That is, the clock starts today.
At the same time, they have not yet declared themselves pirates, so the bow ship is classified as an unregistered ship. Unregistered ships, like ordinary ships, cannot attack without a sufficient reason!
So, what reason did you have to attack them at that time? ]
[That...... That's because they attacked me! ]
[You attack first!] Your battleship has a record, who can you fool with this! What's more, you attack others without even giving a warning, and the other party's attack on you is considered self-preservation, do you understand?!
If this matter reaches the ears of the highest officials, then you will not only be dismissed, but you may also be sent to prison! Do you understand?! ]
[This ......]
[As if today's incident didn't happen, your ship said that it was caused by an accident, and I will help you cover up the past, so you can do it yourself.] ]
However, Lieutenant General Weasel could no longer listen, he knew that he had been drilled into the hole, and if he did report it, then the situation would most likely change to what Lieutenant General Aili said.
What's more, Ai Li has a considerable reputation in the alliance, and even the 5 generals are quite optimistic about Ai Li, and within the alliance, Ai Li is one of the most likely candidates to become a general.
So, now, I can only swallow this breath and find a way later!
Lieutenant General Weasel didn't say anything, just left silently.
When Lieutenant General Eli saw the weasel leave, he exhaled a long breath and turned to look at the sky behind him.
Now, Nebula is soaring through the universe.
Fanker: [Alright, there's still two minutes to go until the wormhole, the destination is set, and the autopilot starts.] ]
Ellie: [Yes, leave it to me.] ]
At this point, control of the Nebula was handed back to Ellie. Haruka and Fanker breathed a sigh of relief.
Haruka: [Phew, I'm sweating from the tense battle just now, Ellie, how much time do I have left to get to Jupiter?] ]
Ellie: [It's going to take nearly an hour after passing through the wormhole.] ]
Haruka: [Then I'll go take a shower and change my clothes.] ]
Fanker: [I've got to get something to eat, I'm starving!] ]
However, both head to their respective rooms, leaving Ling and Ellie in the control room.
Ellie: [Captain, why don't you go to rest?] There's Ellie here. ]
[Eh!] The battle is over?! ]
[The captain can't be too nervous and forget!] ]
[Hahaha!] After all, this was my first time in a real ship battle, so it was understandable that I was too nervous for a while! ]
[Indeed, but please don't fight in such a nonsensical way in the future, it's dangerous to do so after all.] ]
[I see, then, I'll leave it to you, Ellie, call me when the time comes, I'll go back to my room and sleep for a while.] ]
[Understood, Captain.] ]
With that, Ling stood up and walked in the direction of his own room.
About 50 minutes later, the trio arrived in the control room one after another.
Ling: [What's going on now?] ]
Ellie: [In 10 minutes, we will arrive at Jupiter's space station, and we have already been sent an application form to fill out from the space station.] ]
Ellie shows this application form on the home screen.
Haruka: [Huh?!] So, what category should a spaceship fall into? ]
Fanker: [Wouldn't it be nice to go straight to the reclamation pirates?] ]
[No, just fill in the individual.] ]
Fanker: [Huh?! Why? ]
[The current pirates will not reclaim a pirate ship in their own spaceship.] Most of them are filled in as human beings or belong to a certain company. ]
Haruka: [If you do that, the people on the space station won't know it's a pirate ship.] ]
[No, they know.] However, only filling it out that way will get you into the space station. ]
Ellie: [Here's the way it is.] Since most of the universe is connected by wormholes, tourism and food and beverage industries in the universe are developing rapidly. However, if ordinary people want to travel to the universe, they need to pay a lot of money, and it is already the limit that ordinary people can go once a year.
Therefore, for the development of the universe, the alliance side agreed with the pirates. Since pirates are going around, they will inevitably need the space station to replenish fuel, food, etc., so as long as the pirates don't do anything bad inside the space station, the alliance will let them in. In this way, it will not only improve the development of tourism, but also contribute to the economy of the universe, which is a very good policy. ]
[Not only that, but there are also many companies that hire well-known pirates to be their company's guards or have them perform.] ]
Fanker: [Performance?] ]
[Since the chances of people in the universe being attacked by pirates are very small, and most people want to be attacked by pirates, public relations companies will invite pirates to perform attacks, which greatly improves the development of tourism.] ]
Ellie: [To put it simply, as long as you fill in as an individual and don't make trouble in the space station, you will generally have no problem entering the space station, and you will not be caught by the Alliance.] ]
Haruka: [Why don't the pirates build a space station that belongs only to pirates?] ]
[This one also exists, but there is only one in the entire universe at present.] As for why not do that, it's actually quite simple. If there is no binding between the pirates, it will be easy to fight, and then when the time comes, the space station will become a fighting ground for pirates, and no one wants to do that. ]
Haruka: [I see, then I'll fill in someone.] ]
Fanker: [Isn't the Nebula capable of flying permanently, so why go to Jupiter?] Wouldn't it be better to go directly to the sea of stars? ]
[Do you know where the sea of stars is?] ]
fanker:[……]
[Now entering the space station, in addition to replenishing ammunition, is just to search for intelligence, whether it is useful or not, it is enough to be able to find some fragments.] ]
Haruka: [Can't you find it on the Internet?] ]
[There are so many rumors online that it's hard to tell, so it's better to go straight to the pirate bar inside the space station for clues.] ]
Fanker: [Okay, next stop, it's going to split the drink!] ]
[We're not adults yet, okay!] ]
Well, finally to the Jupiter space station, the first stop has arrived. Now it's just to find clues and move on to the next step, so can you find useful clues?
