Chapter 589: Privateers

Chapter 589: Sī Plundering Regiment

A spaceship with a body length of no more than 500 meters - if this thing is thrown on the earth, of course, it can be regarded as an unattainable alien technology, where the largest spacecraft built by mankind is still at the level of a tin can that orbits the earth, but in the vast and unpredictable space of the universe, in the surrounding galaxy-level civilization, such a spaceship is no different from a sampan if it appears alone.

You must know that due to the special environment of space, spacecraft that perform long-term missions in the universe must be equipped with an ecological self-circulation system, depending on the race, the requirements of these ecosystems may be different, but it is also a troublesome job to completely simulate the environment of a planet in space, since the spacecraft docked in front of me has the ability to navigate deep space, it must be equipped with a similar device, and I am now very curious about how the five-hundred-meter-long spacecraft stuffed such a set of things……

In addition, leading hundreds of people to peep at others in stealth, this feeling is really bāng.

Of course, it is impossible for the people who landed on the take-off and landing platform to know that there are hundreds of pairs of eyes staring at their broken ship under the spaceship, and it is even more impossible to notice that there is an advanced spaceship dozens of times more powerful than themselves parked in the berth next to them, scanning them up and down, and they have already begun their own actions.

After the spacecraft came to a standstill, a ten-meter-wide cabin mén was opened from the side of its middle section, and a dirty loading and unloading channel poked out of the large mén and slowly extended to the platform, and when it was halfway through its operation, it was obviously stuck, and we braved a cold sweat to see two strong men like oxen wearing space combat uniforms appear above the passage, and smash two large sledgehammers at the junction between the latter and the hull before the passage was completely lowered.

"I suddenly felt like I wanted to go up and help them......"

Artoria's head spun around and said in a confused voice.

At this time, several tracked vehicles that seemed to be engineering were driven down from the transmission channel of the spaceship, and after looking at the dilapidated spacecraft for so long, these brand-new space engineering vehicles were really eye-catching.

"What are they doing here? Exploration team? My sister said sleepily, watching the people park the construction truck at the junction of the take-off and landing platform and the assembly platform and start assembling some strange mechanical equipment in situ, as if they were detecting something.

At this point, Viska finally remembered to transfer the communication signal he had intercepted to the public channel, and suddenly, the sound of those people talking between them sounded in our heads.

“…… (omitted) finally found it, this xiǎo planetary belt is really desolate enough. ”

This is a rough male xìng voice, Viska marked, the source of the sound is one of the two strong men who smashed the loading and unloading channel with a sledgehammer just now, as the voice fell, the other person replied: "If we are not desolate, we will not be able to grab it, the eldest sister is really powerful, the news is so well-informed, maybe we can make a lot of money now, Ha Lu Ha ......"

"But to be honest, it's the first time I've seen this kind of base, and I don't know what kind of force it was built by, it looks really advanced."

"Don't think about it, it must be the people from the consortium, they have long wanted to take advantage of this hún war cycle to expand their territory, it seems that there is a new unlucky guy coming to this universe, and it happens to be picked up by the people of the consortium - hey the engineering truck, hurry up Although the eldest sister said that this place was abandoned, but in case another sī plundering group comes, we will be in big trouble, and maybe the angel people also know this place, we can't do anything but have the general power of the administrative star."

"You guys hurry up," the other person jumped off the loading and unloading tunnel at this time, commanding a team of construction robots who had just disembarked from the spaceship, "first remove the things that look rare and send them to the ship, don't move the glittering building first, let the 'doctor' go in and take a look, maybe there are any treasures inside, such an advanced base, the things dismantled in it will definitely sell for a high price on the black market"

"Don't even think that the guy who sī hid a piece of the navigator last time is still being whipped in the mine, if you want to feel so comfortable, try it before coming out this time, the eldest sister said that after the thing is sold, everyone can share three times as much, but whoever wants to sī hide will be seen by our people on the black market, and he will be thrown to the redstone star to dig for ten years."

After listening for a long time, I finally understood the identity of this group of people.

Pirate...... No, not even as good as pirates, I'm afraid they don't even count as roadblockers, they call themselves sī raiders, but in fact they ...... It's about the same as a scavenging vulture, right?

Scattered and unorganized, the weak but cunning of the world, they make a fortune by scavenging the relics of the battlefield, collecting the mysterious technology and selling them on the black market, and perhaps occasionally doing daring deeds such as being a sī, an intelligence monger, or following an army waiting to salvage the wreckage - at most, that's the end of their skills.

This is the sī plundering group, or to put it bluntly, collecting scrap.

It doesn't seem strange that similar xiǎo gangs appear in this messy world, there are opportunities to generate battlefield garbage at any time, the wreckage of battleships, destroyed bases, space stations, all kinds of battlefield remnants, are being generated all the time, and many of the things salvaged are worth a good price on the black market - don't think that the wreckage is no one wants, in this world where new races strayed into at any time, science and technology are showing a trend of opening up everywhere, because there is almost no environment for the development of new technologies, Obtaining other people's ready-made skills to transform one's own army has become a good way to strengthen one's own strength, although there are conflicts between the techniques of different systems, but there are "talents" in this world who can integrate different technologies, and those modified and strange assembled spaceships here and there are examples of this.

In this way, those abandoned bases left behind by the advance team of Protos have become their treasures, and they are absolutely new techniques.

I'm afraid that even the "national government" here usually buys battlefield relics from such people, right?

Because I have been in contact with the official power of King Gotak ** before, I have never heard of such a xiǎo gang at all, and now when I see them, I don't know what level such a configuration of Lu Dao is in its "peers", but I think that the largest "sī plundering group" is just a big scrap recycler, from the battlefield to salvage some fragments to sell on the black market, the income may be higher than that of ordinary people, but there is absolutely no high interest in the frontal battlefield to compete for territory, but the risk is not a lot at all, not to mention anything else, Just this base when a dozen xiǎo were just abandoned, how much risk do these guys in front of me who drive garbage boats to pick up treasures dare to get involved?

Whether it is the power of the base, or the army that attacked here, or other "political fǔ army" that wants to take advantage of the fire to loot (you can hear from the words of the big Han Jia just now, even the "sovereign" political fǔ army will occasionally put down the shelf to salvage the wreckage in person), anyone who comes over will definitely be able to kill the broken spaceship that looks like a wreckage, they are all a bunch of guys living at the bottom.

Of course, there is no doubt that if they are given enough weapons and equipment, these scrap workers who seem to be able to only fight xiǎo make trouble are willing to turn into interstellar pirates with tiǎn blood on the tip of their knives at any time.

It wasn't the enemy soldiers who attacked the base, nor the regular army who knew about the situation, this group of sī raiders suddenly made us lose interest, and Viska began to think about whether to kill them all, of course, this suggestion of the grass and the lives of the people was rejected by me and my sister.

"There's nothing in front of the head"

Just then, another voice rang out in the public listening channel, and a tall construction robot walked over from the storage area, holding a somewhat familiar bucket-shaped machine in his arms...... Well, it was the probe just now, because it sprayed Viska's face black, and then let Xiǎo girl kick it over and fly for several kilometers, and smashed it directly into a warehouse in the storage area, now it seems that this is the only harvest of this construction robot, and the two unlucky eggs who followed behind this construction robot are even more empty.

"That's it?" The stout man known as the head wore a space mask on his head, and his expression was not clear, but his voice sounded absolutely angry, "What is this?" It looks like an unassembled engine, and the three of you have found such a thing until now? ”

"It's all emptied," the robot driver's voice sounded particularly aggrieved, "we rummaged through several warehouses, and there was nothing but walls and lighting, and the walls were full of grooves left by the buckles of embedded devices, and there wasn't even a single screw left on the ground......"

Lying in a groove, so good at living, the commander of the advance team of Protos is really jīng, this is all bī out when Keprolu was rebuilt, right?

"Edi Niang, that's too good, right?" Just like my complaint, the strong man who seems to be the leader of xiǎo can't help but smack his lips at this time, "How do you feel more frugal than us?" ”

"I didn't find it here."

At this time, several other cyborg xiǎo teams also came back with nothing, these construction mecha-like construction robots that looked as if they had taken off their armor plates and left only their skeletons were obviously designed for such "exploration work", they were not tall, but they had mechanical arms equivalent to almost their entire height, but they were difficult to cook, and no matter how professional a scavenger was, it was impossible to find the treasure in the abandoned base after the goose pulled out máo, twelve robots, With the exception of two of them, who were holding two or three unknown mechanical components in their arms, the others were empty-handed.

Coming back so soon, I must have exited directly after seeing the empty shells of the buildings that were even screwed off and removed, and I have to sigh, what a fucking pass......

"Nothing?" Another big man who was directing the engineering truck to transport things to the base suddenly realized that he might not have to be busy, and immediately shouted in a loud voice, "Then aren't we here for nothing today?" ”

"No, Ham, just go back like this, the eldest sister dares to shoot our brothers directly," the big man who served as the commander of the robot waved his hand, as if he had made up his mind, "Let the battle mech come down and use the jī light cannon, and the boom will also smash these buildings, there must be things like building energy groups that can't be demolished, although no one wants it on the black market, but it's good to take more things in your hands and go back, it's a big deal to go back and say that this is all new technology, and our brothers can't see what is valuable and take it back together...... Yes, that's it, whoever is over there, you go and get the 'doctor' down, and if you want to go back and not get whipped, you're going to count on that only smart man......"

However, before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by a voice that suddenly sounded over the radio: "Hey, I said, if we do this to this extent, we have to do it." ”

"Who? Who luàn uses this frequency? ”

There was no answer, and there was only a cacophony of voices in the communication.

"Beck, who are you talking to?"

I just scared the other party, and I was immediately thundered by his name, Beck? There's also a brother named Ham over there...... These two buddies are here to liven up the atmosphere, right?

"Damn, maybe I heard it wrong, just now I heard someone talking to me on the radio, using the royal frequency of the eldest sister's head......"

"," the big man No. 2, who was previously known as Ham, waved his hand, "what is the eldest sister looking for you to do at this time...... Wow."

"What's wrong...... Hey" Baker was just about to look back to see what was going on with his brother, when he saw a giant man in a space combat suit and the size of a cow flying sideways towards him, and before he even had time to react, the two Beckham brothers rolled into a ball.

"What's going on? Ham, what kind of kung fu do you practice? ”

"Yes...... There is something strange about this base Just now I saw a translucent xiǎonv child appear in front of me, and then the whole person flew over by itself"

As a friendly reminder, Viska will throw away any non-friendly target standing in front of her and taller than herself, and of course, if her sister is present, the two xiǎo guys will throw you in opposite directions.

Uncle B was impressed.

"The shrinking formation engineering vehicle is back and the battle mech is in place quickly, this place is weird"

The big man named Baker was stabbed by one supernatural event after another, and immediately announced loudly that he had entered the defensive formation, and although the sī plundering group who was trying to pry the cable down from the steel beam of the base did not know what was happening, they still immediately responded to the order and gathered, several engineering vehicles, more than a dozen construction robots, and more than a dozen miscellaneous soldiers wearing space combat uniforms and carrying standard firearms immediately formed a circle and formed a "defense line" full of leaks.

At first, we wanted to hurry away from these guys, but now, everyone, including Viska, seemed to be emitted some kind of evil taste by Jī, and planned to toss and toss this group of sī looters who were about to blow up the base, watching them gather in a circle suspiciously, several imperial leaders, and a group of unscrupulous heroes immediately surrounded them with a smile.

"Brother, why do I feel a little chilly......"

The strong man named Ham seems to be the younger brother of the two brothers, although he is as strong as an ox, but he is unexpectedly not very brave, and it may be that an over-the-shoulder fall just now is too supernatural, and his voice sounds a little trembling.

"Don't scare yourself, it may be the overpressure generated when you jumped just now, we are all hallucinating, everyone get closer, don't move...... Damn, I knew that the broken jump engine should be overhauled...... Hey, the battle mech is down, these xiǎo rabbit cubs have been grinding for so long and can be counted."

The one who jumped down from the loading and unloading tunnel of the spaceship was the battle mecha in the other party's mouth, and how to put it, the five Gundam-like things made me embarrassed on the spot.

…… There are really three red in the world.

"Mecha, I think I dreamed of flying a Gundam back then," I couldn't help but shrug my shoulders as I looked at the five nearly twenty-meter-tall steel giants who were nimbly jumping off the spaceship and running this way, "but now my dream is shattered." ”

Although it looks mighty, but this thing is actually very general in actual combat in civilizations above the stellar level, the most important thing for warships with deep space combat capabilities is energy, at the same level of science and technology, the volume of the main reactor of such warships is often hundreds of times the overall volume of the battle mech, and the standard output is thousands or even tens of thousands of times that of the latter, and the individual mecha is limited by the volume of its pendant, even if they have a high level of science and technology, it is impossible to occupy an advantage in the face of a warship formation of the same level of science and technology.

The reason is simple, if a robot piloted by a single soldier can use a proton rifle, what reason does the battleship opposite it have to install a 2,000 mén proton cannon? The soldiers are all armoured, so it is impossible for the troop carrier to be made of wood, right? It's a balanced technology, but all classes have to evolve simultaneously, and no matter how agile the Gundam is, it can't avoid a more agile turret - because the angular momentum acceleration technique (a key technique that keeps the turret running) is far easier to develop than the reaction force braking technique (the main means by which a battle mech changes its attitude in the universe).

However, the above situation is only applicable to the Xiling people this kind of civilization outside the specifications, the battle mecha still has a market in the "lower civilization", although they are powerless in the face of space warship clusters, but in the ground conflict and local wars are very large, their armor just can withstand most of the weapons in the atmosphere, and the changeable movement mode also makes it difficult for the vast majority of ground artillery to capture its lethal point, and its firepower far exceeds that of any kind of ground force - once again excluding the specifications of the Xiling gang.

These sī raiders can even afford to use battle mechs, and it seems that they are not as poor as we thought at the beginning.

The new battle mechs who joined the defense circle didn't know what was going on, the huge radium rifles they held in their hands could only point around aimlessly, humans are really a very amazing species, the special sense called the sixth sense made Sandora sleepy, and now, the sixth sense of these sī raiding groups made them tremble, the reason was that the three outer layers around them were watching their various unscrupulous eyes.

Then, a certain unlucky battle mech took a few steps to the side, instantly crossed a distance of more than ten meters, and stood in front of Visk.
