âYuge, Xiuxiu, Qian Lei, Liu Feng. All of you will follow me to the two pirate warships to take a look. Zhuoan, you will be in charge of piloting the warships. If there is any news from the other side, inform them that we will exchange for something of equal value. Otherwise, weâll destroy their two pirate warships in three hours.â
âAlright,â Ding Zhuohan agreed excitedly.
A black Sky Wing space fighter shot out from the tail of the warship and headed straight for the two captured warships.
There was no need for the piratesâ permission at all. Through remote control, they directly opened the rear cabins of the two reconnaissance warships and Lan Xuanyuâs team entered the first warship first.
The Sky Wing mecha didnât transform back into its mecha form, so that they could keep this secret. Lan Xuanyu and his team got off the warship with their masks on and walked into the warship.
The reconnaissance warship could only accommodate 50 people. At this moment, they were already standing together and looking at the five of them with unfriendly expressions. They also held various soul devices in their hands.
Lan Xuanyu ignored them. Since these pirates had chosen to surrender, they would definitely not court death. The cannons of the 33 Sky Wingsâ warship were still aimed at them.
After a round of searching, there were indeed some good items. There were more than ten types of rare metals, with the smallest weighing over ten kilograms and the largest over a ton. Naturally, Lan Xuanyu stored them into his Ring of Fate without any hesitation. Then, he called his warship over and took their homing missiles, interference missiles, capture shells, and soul missiles.
They basically looted everything. Other than the pirates, they didnât leave anything left in this reconnaissance spaceship.
As expected, during the entire process, the pirates didnât dare to voice their anger and didnât dare to do anything at all. They could only watch Lan Xuanyu and his team do it. They didnât want to die either!
They did the same for the other pirate warship and plundered everything. The only pity was that they didnât find anything looted by these two warships. This disappointed Lan Xuanyu. Also, the missiles they were equipped with werenât of high quality. Of course, flies were meat too, and free enemies were sweet and sour. It was a waste not to want them! They should be able to sell them for money.
After returning to the 33 Sky Wings warship, Lan Xuanyu used his spiritual power to probe the Ring of Fate and couldnât help but praise in his heart, âIt is still faster to snatch!â
Although there werenât any particularly precious metals among the four tonnes they looted, there were quite a few types. Putting everything else aside, the energy provided by these metals was enough for them to compensate for their energy consumption this time with surplus remaining, not to mention those artillery shells. They should be worth quite a bit.
Ding Zhuohan told Lan Xuanyu that the captain of the Purple Flame Pirate Group had contacted him again and cursed him. But Ding Zhuohan had immediately cut off the connection.
âBoss, what should we do now? Blow up these two warships? Otherwise, theyâll be a burden and we wonât be able to fly fast if we pull them,â Ding Zhuohan said.
Lan Xuanyu shook his head and said, âAs the saying goes, âthere is a way to steal.â If we destroy them, would the pirates dare to surrender to us next time? We want to make a name for ourselves in the pirate world as a group that wants money and not lives. Only then will we have a greater harvest.â
âThen now...â
âJust fly slowly like this and continue flying towards our destination. The Purple Flame Pirates arenât strong and will probably appear very soon. We will leave them with a deep lesson and intimidate the other pirates at the same time. Then, we will go to the Third Exchange Center.â
Just as Lan Xuanyu had expected, the Purple Fire Pirates that should be nearby returned in less than two hours.
A total of 11 pirate warships obstructed their path. The flagship in the lead was actually a Meteor-class assault warship. From its appearance, it was slightly bigger than Lan Xuanyuâs warship.
The communication device jumped out again.
Lan Xuanyu picked up the call. On the other side, Shen Junjieâs cold face appeared.
âKid, do you want to die? Iâll fulfill your wish. Iâll give you a minute to consider. Surrender immediately and weâll spare your lives. Otherwise, just wait to be turned into cosmic dust.â With that said, the captain of the Purple Flame Pirates hung up.
Lan Xuanyu sighed and shook his head silently. He muttered to himself, âPirates are cunning, but their brains arenât working well! Why canât they understand why we would dare to wait for them to come! Fire all the interference missiles.â
A small cannon cabin opened up around the 33 Sky Wings warship and over a hundred interference missiles shot out and flew forward.
This was a very normal response in a space battle. In a direct confrontation, they would first fire interference missiles to avoid being hit by more artillery fire.
Hence, the Purple Flame Pirate Group didnât have any reaction. All the cannons were charging and ready to fire at any time.
As both parties got closer, the main thrusters of Lan Xuanyuâs 33 Sky Wings warship suddenly went out.
Shen Junjie, who was in the Purple Fire Pirateâs flagship, revealed a sinister smile. âThis is cowardice. What 33 Sky Wings? Iâll make you lose your wings this time. This pirate crew will no longer exist in the future. I wonât kill them. It would be a pity to kill them. Iâll just sell them for labor and we should be able to make quite a profit.â
âGo over and ready the capturing shells. Let me see what kind of faces are hidden behind those stupid masks. I pray that there are some beautiful women on their warship.â Shen Junjie waved his hand, and over ten warships immediately moved towards the 33 Sky Wings warship.
Just at this moment, the main thruster of the 33 Sky Wings warship that had just been extinguished lit up once again. Then, it suddenly turned sideways and turned around. Then, it ran away with their motors roaring.
Shen Junjie was taken aback. Only then did he realize that the other party had extinguished their main thrusters in order to turn around. This way, it wouldnât attract their attention. With this run, the 33 Sky Wings warship had even given up on pulling the other two captured pirate warships.
âYou want to run? Stop daydreaming.â Shen Junjie shouted as he pushed his entire army forward with all his thrusters activated. He chased after Lan Xuanyuâs team.
He didnât even look at those missiles and just didnât fire the soul cannons. With the missiles around, it would be a waste of cannon fire. However, the missiles didnât have any offensive power and only released electromagnetic waves. He was confident that he would be able to keep the opponentâs warship.
From the bottom of his heart, Shen Junjie was actually unwilling to destroy this assault warship. It was very rare to see a lone Meteor-class assault warship. If he could capture it, he would have another powerful warship!
Hence, he was in no rush to attack.
The all-out acceleration of the 33 Sky Wings warship was still very fast. The Purple Flame Pirates behind them caught up without hesitation.
They charged straight into the missile, knocked it aside, and chased after it.
Right at this moment, a faint light lit up in the missile, and that light only lasted for a moment. In the next moment, it was as if a black hole had appeared in space, and the terrifying energy retracted in an instant. The three Remnant-class reconnaissance warships dimmed and disappeared into space.
Following that, the black hole suddenly expanded and exploded.
Although Shen Junjieâs flagship wasnât the first to bear the brunt, it was right next to them! When the protective shield came into contact with the black light, it immediately collapsed and energy poured out crazily.
The entire space seemed to tremble violently at this moment, and that black mass immediately turned into a violent explosion.
The pirate warships were flung out one after another as balls of flames exploded.
Under such a terrifying explosion, even the defense of a Meteor-class assault warship was blown up. A large piece of metal burst out and flames appeared. A huge hole bored into the warship and it was flung out.
As it swung horizontally, it knocked into two other reconnaissance warships.
