Koplu Star District, Port of the Dead, "Black Rose".

"Lieutenant, head is waiting for you on the bridge." At the berth, a crew member whistled after seeing the woman return, and shouted, "I heard that I earned a Valkyrie today?" ”

"Well, that mercenary went crazy and ended up hitching his own ship." The woman nodded, gesturing to the captain's hat on her head, "Well, this thing on my head is worth a lot of money." ”

"That's right, by the way, deputy chief, aren't you worried about that idiot doing something immoral?" The crew nodded, then asked with some concern.

“…… When did you get so sentimental? ”

"I'm not worried about my head." The crew waved their hands, "I haven't been in our circle before, so I might swagger into someone's boat like a naïve idiot and get shot in the head......"

"Shut up, shut up." The woman waved her hand impatiently, "With you here, can I make any waves of that idiot?" Or do you think I won the last boxing championship by cheating? ”

"Yes, yes, there is a deputy here, and there must be no problem." When the crew heard this, they quickly showed a flattering smile - they didn't allow him to make any other expressions, the scene of this aunt smashing the five big and three thick mercenaries on the opposite wall with one punch has always been imprinted in their minds, and in their eyes, the combat power of this person in front of them can not be singled out by an imperial team.

"Alright, alright, you go find someone to call those guys back, take a look at the ship, I'll have to take over the Valkyrie with you. When the time comes, we will be able to take care of it. ”

"Okay, no problem, deputy!"

The Black Rose is the capital ship of the Black Rose Pirates, and the only one. Although the pirates were able to make a lot of money by raiding merchant ships, it is unknown why the pirates never bought any new ships, but instead kept upgrading the original Black Rose.

Generally speaking, in interstellar naval battles, a strong ship is important, but until it develops enough generational differences, numbers are still quite important.

Inside the bridge, there was no one else except the head. This is a very strange phenomenon. Because no matter how small a battleship is, it always needs at least single-digit, and at most three-digit operators. For example, the 500-meter-class Imperial Minotaur-class battlecruiser has a full crew of about 6,000 to 8,000 people, and the Yamato cannon alone needs 100 weapons experts to be activated. Bustling on the bridge is a very common state.

"Head, I'm back." The woman casually put the captain's hat aside and walked over to the man.

"Ah, Black Rose, you're back." The man raised his head when he heard this, and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her, "I'm still worried about whether you will be attacked by that mercenary......"

"Huh? Head, you don't think that guy can hurt me, do you? The woman rolled her eyes, "Anyway, my psionic rating is also level 8, you have to respect my psionic level, right?" ”

"I'm not afraid of trouble." The head waved his hand, "After the Port of the Dead gets into trouble, it is much more annoying than the trouble in the Empire. I don't want to run to explain to that crazy woman Mira anymore. ”

"Head, shall we take over the Valkyrie?" The woman quickly changed the subject, she didn't want to listen to the nagging endlessly.

"Well, it was sent to the door after all, and don't you always say that you lack accomplices? Now we have a frigate that can escort us. He stood up and stretched—he was lying on the star map podium thinking about the problem.

"Alright, shall we go now?"

"Well, you tell them to watch our ship, let's go and leave quickly."

"It's been arranged a long time ago, is there something urgent?"

"Well, there's a big deal to do these days." As he spoke, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Frigate "Hydra", half an hour later.

Compared to the Black Rose, the Valkyrie-class frigate is naturally a little smaller. As one of the few human technologies brought to Koplu by UED, Valkyrie-class frigates had served the human air force for a long time in the Battle of the Brood, and with the entry into service of Viking fighters, Valkyrie-class frigates have officially taken a back seat.

However, in the hands of the pirates, these former Council warships still exert their last residual heat. For the pirates, the dense H.A.L.O. air-to-air missiles can make a considerable difference. Compared to the complexity of the Viking fighter and the lack of ability of the Wraith fighter as a flagship, the Valkyrie-class frigate is a very good choice. What's more, the frigate of this class also has the ability of logistics transportation, and the cargo hold in the tail can carry up to thirty heavily armed soldiers.

The head inspected the frigate and found that it was indeed empty. He couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"I didn't expect that mercenary to be so trustworthy." The head in power armor said with some surprise.

"Indeed, I thought he would set up an ambush or something here, but I didn't expect to really plan to give this ship to us." The woman on the side, wearing a close-fitting combat suit for harsh environments, also replied with some surprise.

This harsh environment combat suit is actually the equipment of the Imperial Ghost, specially designed for psykers, and it took a lot of resources and connections to get this suit for women, but it is really worth the price. A level 8 psionic level combined with this outfit can indeed show quite good results.

"Since there's really no ambush, let's get started." The head seemed to be a little excited, "This is a regular army warship, I originally thought that I would have a chance to get it when I found a chance to go to the Gun Empire Shipyard in the future, but I didn't expect to get one for nothing now." ”

"Actually, there are a lot of ships in the black market in the star area, and you can't even look at them." The woman gave him a blank look, "Don't say anything else, you can buy the Empire's Titan-class immigrant ship from regular channels, but you just don't buy it." ”

"How can a civilian ship be refitted, and what can it become?" The head said dismissively, "How could I go to the same trouble as that idiot of the Iron Brain to load the Yamato cannon on the immigration ship?" ”

"So you're only getting the second ship now! You'll have to lower your mindset a bit, if you're the commander of the Imperial fleet, I didn't say it. But you're just a pirate leader now, and refitting civilian ships is how we got started! ”

"Alright, alright, at least we already have a second ship now, don't we? Calm down and think about our next task. If we can complete this task, we can go straight to the next level! ”

The two of them argued and walked into the bridge. The bridge was a little dark, and only some basic light sources were turned on. The woman went in and turned on the lights to make the bridge brighter, and then made a gesture of please.

The head was not polite, and stepped forward and came directly to the Star Map console. Compared to the console on the Black Rose, the Hydra's console was still dark at this time - it was already turned off.

The head seemed to take a deep breath, and then gently placed his mechanical arm on the Star Map console.

"Detected a fused ship, the model is the 'United Earth Council Valkyrie-class Missile Frigate', is it fused?"
