323 Port calls

"No communication from the Poppers was found, they remained silent."

At the same time as Noah's report, Lin Youde's attention was on the white hole.

"It really looks like a normal star." He said.

"yes, so now the shell of this ship is suffering a huge amount of radiation, and it should be completely burping if you don't leave the protective layer quickly." Xia Yongzhi responded, "When we get to the next planet, we have to spend a lot of money to repair the protective shell, repaint the anti-radiation coating or something." By the way, the temperature of the ship's hull has now risen to 500 degrees, and it is still heating up. ”

At this time, the ships of the Pop merchant fleet also appeared - in the current environment, the detection ability of the warship has been greatly reduced, because most of the exposed detection equipment has been included in the hull to protect it, so Lin Youde and they only directly confirmed one Pop spaceship, and the remaining four Pop ships relied on Ansebo communication to confirm that they completed the journey safely.

The Enterprise's engine was running at full power, leading the Enterprise out of the White Hole.

"Inform the Pop people that we're going to be the last to go warp and let them go first."

Shortly after the Ansebo communication was sent, the Enterprise confirmed the fluctuations in the warp speed of the Poppers towards the colony of Paraleone.

"Let's go too." After Lin Youde finished speaking, Xia Yongzhi started the warp speed engine - it turned out that she was already resetting the warp speed parameters before.

**

Three minutes later, the Enterprise sailed in orbit around the Paraleone system.

Generally, when a ship enters a certain galaxy, it will lower itself and set the coordinates of the warp speed on the "guest orbit" specified by the galaxy, if the ship is too far away from this orbit when leaving the warp speed, it may be regarded as a malicious intrusion ship and be attacked by the galaxy guard.

Of course. In a prosperous galaxy with good security, there is generally no need to worry about this, and if you come out of the wrong position, you will just be interrogated. But in the Muenzo Sector, where pirates are rampant and fighting, it's a bit of a hassle if you don't notice this. If you are unlucky, you may be greeted in the face by various attacks if you end the warp speed directly where the local armed forces can fire directly.

However, the Enterprise appeared perfectly on the visitor track set by Paraleone.

"It's worthy of a super-civilized artificial intelligence," Xia Yongzhi sent a private message to Lin Youde, "It assists in calculating the warp speed, and then the coordinates of our departure from the warp speed are amazingly accurate." ”

"I'm amazing." Noah spoke suddenly.

"Why did you pass on what I said to Noah?"

"In fact, it's more connected to my spirit than you might think, and it can be seen as a memory bank that we now share." Lin Youde answered Xia Yongzhi truthfully.

At this time, the communication of the Poppers came: "Thank goodness it seems that there are no pirates who happen to be in Paraleone, and now the delivery should be smooth." ”

Before Lin Youde could respond to the Pop Man, the image from the Pop Spaceship was pushed to the corner of the panoramic screen by Noah. An image of the unfamiliar command module appeared directly in front of the panoramic screen on the bridge.

There were several individuals of different races in the command module, led by the Fish-People with their hardened scaly skins - they were not called by that name, but the diplomats had come up with such a racial name when they saw their appearance, similar to the way the pigs got their names. In fact, when humans first came into contact with the Pengrui people, some people called Pengrui "Oak barbarians", "orcs" or "super mutants", but then it was found that the Pengrui people did not have the strong individual combat power that the above three names should have, so everyone began to use the transliterated name Pengrui.

Thinking about it this way, humans are really willful when it comes to naming other races, and if the Ilarai have long pointed ears, they will probably be called elves. Then it will definitely give birth to a group of dreamers who dream of elves in reality.

"It's a Naga!" Nhleko speaks in the command network.

"It's the Fish-People." Jing Huayuan immediately responded - although Jing Huayuan, as Enhleko's deputy, could not enter the officer channel, he still had a very high speaking authority in the command network, "People have two legs." ”

"Naga can also have two legs, just sacrifice their voice to be mute."

"That's a fairy tale! And if you don't get the prince's love, it will become a bubble! And isn't this the same system as Naga, okay! Give so many loopholes at once to make me complain. Are you going to exhaust me, Chief Engineer! ”

The intranet of the battleship was immediately full of 2333 and the red and red fire He Houhua posted by the crew, and today's engineering department is still staging free cross talk.

Lin Youde didn't have time to listen to cross talk here. The fish-man, who appeared to be the commander or spokesman, spoke: "The human starship Enterprise, we have received no news that you will be visiting. ”

"That's because our actions are kept secret." Lin Youde replied.

"If you're going to anchor here. We have to give us a reasonable explanation, and you're very popular right now. There are big bounties being offered everywhere, and we in our colony don't want to go to the trouble of finding them. ”

"Hurry up and ask him, our bounty is in the hundreds of millions of berry." In the command network, Enhleko's speech appeared again.

"Although it is a classic that has been remade many times, this is a classic masterpiece after all, and modern people know very little, Chief Engineer! If few people know about it, it will become a bad joke! ”

Then the system prompted Lin Xiangzhi to temporarily deprive Kagami of the right to speak in the command network.

"For Mao, only I am sealed!" Jing Huayuan immediately sent a private message to Lin Youde to protest.

"You protested with me about dry hair, and I didn't seal it."

"Because it's definitely useless to protest with the housekeeper!"

Lin Youde blocked Jinghuayuan's communication.

Xia Yongzhi immediately said: "After you blocked it, she started looking for me, she is really energetic, Enhleko's follower." ”

Lin Youde shrugged his shoulders, and then said to the Fish-People, or rather, to the commander of the colony of Paraleone, "We escorted the Pop merchant fleet to your system, because they were worried about pirates robbing your system. ”

"Yes," the Popper said at once, "we met pirates on the outskirts of the Black Hole, suffered heavy losses in battle, and were rescued by the passing Enterprise, so we hired them by the way. ”

"What a deliberate move," said the Fish-Folk unceremoniously, "and now they have a lot of bounty on their heads, and all sorts of pirates will flock to them." You can dock, unload and replenish, but they can't, they have to go right away. ”

"As long as you keep an eye on all the Ansebo transmitters and don't leak the news that we're here, there's no problem." Lin Youde smiled at the fish-man, "Anyway, your colony doesn't produce any particularly rare trade products, and there are no merchant ships to visit, right?" ”

The size of the colony of Paraleon is not large, in fact, in Muenzo, in addition to the trading hub protected by the Tulles, the large colony is either a pirate den or produces rare products such as Element Zero, which Parlarion does not have. They were originally a colony founded by a desperate group of exiles - this is the nature of many colonies in the Moonzo Sector - and struggled to survive the battle with pirates, and they also had their own defenses, which attracted more people who could not stay in their own race and did not want to wander the world, and gradually developed.

The characteristic of this kind of colony is that it has a certain defensive force, and the little pirates dare not come, and the big pirates do not look down on it, because there is really nothing to grab.

Interestingly, in the Moonzo Zone, colonies like Paraleone, in order to maintain this state of uninterest to the pirates, tend to develop to a certain extent and seal themselves off the pace of development, no longer moving forward, and become a planet that produces primary products with peace of mind.

This is inconceivable to the human colonists, who dream of their colony becoming a second Arcturus, but in Muenzo this is a very common idea, because colonies that dream of making a colony bigger and able to build large starships and then use their power to overthrow pirates are killed by pirates unless they successfully get the Turian garrison to be killed.

Obtaining a garrison generally means that you have to bear the military expenses of the Turians and meet the various requirements of the Turles, so the pace of development will also be slowed down.

Returning to Parlarion, this kind of colony generally does not have merchant ships that come to visit with the purpose of reselling special products, in fact, because of the low profits, merchant ships rarely visit this system, but there are still some merchant fleets who just want to make a small amount of money on a safe basis will come to these systems regularly. The Pop fleet should belong to this category.

Because it is a regular ship, there are also pirates who will stare at the merchant ship when it comes to loot - the goods transported by the merchant ship may not be valuable, but the merchant ship itself still has a value to grab, in the interstellar age, the merchant fleet is worth grabbing even if it does not bring goods, and the six-level warp engine, large shields and so on are extremely valuable and attractive trophies.

That's why the Pops hired the Enterprise, just because they were worried about being robbed along with the colony.

Now that there were no pirates here, the Poppers were probably relieved.

But apparently the colonies are very nervous, and when the news of the Enterprise gets out, and the pirates are flocking here, they will definitely suffer by the way - don't expect the pirates to only do the Enterprise, they will definitely rob everything they can when they come.

So now the commander from the Fish-Man Clan is seriously discussing with the rest of the command room.

"It looks like there's an argument." De Niro said, "It's normal for multiracial associations to do that. ”

Lin Youde couldn't help but glance at the sink on the bridge, where Nameless was rolling leisurely - it felt like he had raised ornamental fish on the bridge......

Finally, the other party discussed the result.

"You can dock and resupply, but you must leave within one of the rotation cycles of Paralyon, and then we will broadcast your departure and provide you with the coordinates of your warp speed. If you leave now, we won't say anything. ”

"I'm going to dock at the port, in fact, we also have some goods in our hands that we want to sell." Lin Youde said decisively.

"Hey, isn't it good to take the Pop man's money and go straight away?" Nhleko asked.

Nameless in the sink also spoke at this time: "Is this port call necessary?" ”

"It's necessary," Lin Youde replied in both wireless network and reality, "we can hack into their network when we dock at Hong Kong, and maybe we can find some information." (To be continued......)
