Chapter 598 Be More Confident

When the two armed merchant ships were in a state of silence at first, Xiaohu couldn't take the initiative to observe in order to avoid alarming each other.

It can only perceive the general situation of the other party through dim light and passive energy sensing.

Now the two merchant ships have started to accelerate. Although they are far away, they can observe them more clearly.

Qu Jianlei glanced at the image, and pouted, "These are reinforcements invited from outside."

He had never seen this larger enemy ship in the Lanyun market before, and it was obviously called by the other party.

This made him very angry: He actually dispatched warships from afar to block me, what kind of grudge?

Battleship dispatches consume energy blocks. Of course, it is more needed during battles. The opponent obviously has the will to win.

That's alright, if you guys are so terrific, I won't have any psychological pressure to kill someone.

After the starship traveled more than one million kilometers, the opponent gradually caught up, and the distance was shortened to about 150,000 kilometers.

Seeing that the two suspected enemy ships were still speeding up, Qu Jianlei couldn't continue to ignore them, it would seem unreasonable.

"Turn around, dodge in a 45-degree direction, don't speed up."

Dodging is to get rid of the pursuit, and not accelerating is to show a gesture: we have no intention of doubting you two, as long as you don't interfere with each other.

Xiaohu faithfully carried out Qu Jianlei's instructions.

In the central control room of the slightly smaller one of the two pursuing merchant ships, a stout middle-aged woman stood.

She is a cook, an A-level awakened ice attribute, who not only does serious business, but also occasionally acts as a robber.

Seeing the other party turn around, she snorted coldly, "Stop pretending? I thought you were really calm and called the three butchers."

Not long after, a rough voice sounded, "Cook, what's the matter?"

What are you pretending to be with me? The cook snorted coldly, "Send out your attack ship."

"It's so far away?" The three butchers shouted, "How much energy will it cost? Let's call the other party first."

Robbers also have to consider the cost, and only fools will touch a deal that is obviously not worthwhile.

In space warfare, 150,000 kilometers is actually not far, but wouldn't it be better to save a little?

The cook said blankly, "I specially called you here, not to let you sit around and share the money."

It turned out that this strangely shaped merchant ship was her helper specially brought here.

It has been more than twenty years since the cook first became a robber.

It is precisely because he has tasted the sweetness and found that robbery is faster than doing serious business, that he will go further and further on this road.

It's not that the cook's robbery has never lost money, but generally speaking, there are many times when they make a lot of money.

So she is very experienced in observing and distinguishing prey.

8384 This ship looks a bit wrong, and she also found out that the mechanical arm displayed by the other party is in very good condition.

However, this didn't make her willing to let go. She hasn't opened for a long time, and she can't miss possible opportunities to make money.

Qu Jianlei's series of purchasing behaviors were all inquired by her intelligence network.

What does the procurement of second-hand weapons and ammunition say? Explain the shortage of weapons.

What does it mean to exchange energy blocks? It shows that energy also has some problems, and there is no stable exchange channel.

Raw materials? That's for building and remodeling, of course!

As for the calculation unit... this one is a bit bigger than the head, and it should only be used by professional institutions.

But the purchase of computing units by the other party also made her completely determined to grab a wave.

She considered that the other party might be backed by a certain organization, otherwise it would be impossible to purchase such professional equipment.

However, if the organization is short of weapons and the supply of energy blocks is unstable, why not grab one?

Is it possible that the other party is fishing? She almost denied this possibility in the shortest possible time.

Who ever heard of fishing with computing units? Even fishing with energy blocks is more reliable than this, right?

Moreover, the crew of the 8383 merchant ship never appeared in the market at all.

The most important thing is to come down to communicate with one person. After the communication is completed, that person will return to the starship as soon as possible.

Therefore, she judged that the number of crew members of the other party should not be very large, and there may even be a serious shortage of crew members.

The cook herself leads a team, and she understands the virtues of the crew members on the starship.

When sailing in space, the crew has no choice but to stay in the cabin. When they are on the pier, it is absolutely different.

Who wants to stay in a cramped starship after a tedious voyage?

The environment of Lanyun Bazaar is relatively poor, but no matter how bad it is, you can come out for activities, right?

In fact, when going to the big market, in addition to temporary shops, there are also some entertainment items in the market.

The cook was very sure that even if it was her own team, if she didn't let people go down to get some air, there would be strong objections.

Therefore, if it weren't for the fact that the other party's crew was too small, it was absolutely impossible to suppress this emotion.

It is against human nature at all!

Unless the merchant ship is in a hurry and lands only to replenish supplies, in this case, the crew may not disembark from the starship.

However, how long has the merchant ship 8384 been parked in Lanyun Market? A full ten days!

The cook attaches great importance to risk control, and she thinks that she is not a person who cares about money

High returns come with high risks, and she has to be responsible for herself and her team.

She considered all the circumstances before finally making the decision to rob.

But this merchant ship gave her a feeling that it was a bit nonsensical.

So she thought twice and invited partners to help out in order to share the risk.

The three butchers have been friends with her for thirty years, and they have cooperated many times in similar matters, either she was looking for the other party, or the other party was looking for her.

Generally speaking, the two parties have been able to cooperate so many times, which shows that the cooperation is quite pleasant and the concepts are relatively close.

Now the cook's thinking is: I discovered this business, if you want to participate in the spoils, you have to work harder.

The three butchers knew her logic and could understand it.

However, there is a problem that must be faced. The two teams have cooperated, but the related business costs are calculated independently.

So he gave a dry laugh, "Cook, I suggest to observe for a while, but you didn't find that... the other party didn't speed up?"

"What's so strange about this?" The cook felt that this guy's brain was a bit out of order, "As long as we turn around, he will definitely speed up."

"Maybe it's a warning," the three butchers replied solemnly, "Maybe what they want to say is 'I'm not afraid of you two chasing me'!"

In fact, he was looking for reasons for saving energy blocks, and what he saved was what he earned.

If Qu Jianlei knew that his intentions had been misinterpreted like this, he would probably be dumbfounded.

However, the cook was furious when she heard the words, "If you don't send out the attack ships again, I will have to adjust the distribution ratio!"

"Okay," the three butchers sighed, and there was nothing to do. "The first assault ship team, start! The second team is ready!"

Three attack ships emerged from the top of the merchant ship, rushing towards the broken merchant ship in front of them like lightning.

This is the reason why the cook asked the three butchers for help. This guy's merchant ship is an aerospace carrier!

The firepower of the mothership itself is not bad, but in order to facilitate the entry and exit of the attack ship, the firepower system has been weakened.

There are three attack ships and a combat squad, a total of two squads, and a backup squad, a total of nine ships.

Nine attack ships are not too many, but we must understand that the mother ship is only a merchant ship, not a warship, and it must be used for commercial purposes!

When the cook saw the attack ship dispatched, she snorted in satisfaction, "The initial speed is obviously very high, how many energy blocks are used?"

The three butchers sighed heavily, and said through gritted teeth, "Cook, please find out, they still have to fight!"

Qu Jianlei and Xiaohu immediately noticed the abnormality, "I'm going to take off continuously, it's actually an aerospace carrier?"

Qu Jianlei felt that the three views were a bit broken, "Is this still an armed merchant ship?"

Xiaohu said calmly, "This is an assault-type attack ship, which is different from the assault-type that Titan encountered."

To put it simply, the assault type they encountered last time was small, crispy, and agile.

In a formal battle, you can launch an attack on the battleship, or you can "dog fight" with the opponent's attack ship.

The attack type is larger in size, relatively stronger, and a little less agile, but powerful in attack.

The latter is to attack large targets, and the melee dog fighting ability is relatively poor.

If the three butchers can change all the attack types to assault types, there will be at least one more assault ship squad on the merchant ship.

The corners of Qu Jianlei's mouth twitched slightly, "Is this an assault ship that bullies me without an escort?"

This is really the case, the cook has already analyzed it, and judging from the opponent's size and loading capacity, it is very likely that there is no escorting small ship.

Even if there are one or two ships, she is not afraid-do you have the manpower to control the attack ships?

Even if the opponent has an attack ship and manpower, she is still not worried-I called the three butchers to help because he is handsome?

After all, the cooperation between her and the three butchers is particularly restraining for this kind of lone warship.

Qu Jianlei increased his speed, but at the next moment, six attack ships chased after him extremely fast.

The three ships in the front and the three ships in the back are two standard battle formations.

Immediately afterwards, a call came from the public channel, "8384, 8384, we have no malicious intentions, we have no malicious intentions."

"I am the captain of the space carrier, and I have two computing units worth 80 million, which can be sold cheaply."

"Eighty million computing units, two?" The central control system of 8384 Merchant Ship started to get hot again, "You won't fool people, will you?"

Qu Jianlei snorted coldly, "Be more confident and remove the word 'no'... But it's okay, you're not human."

Seeing that the 8384 merchant ship did not answer, the other party said again, "I hope you will not reject our kindness, or you will bear the consequences."

Qu Jianlei snorted, but did not connect to the microphone, "Xiaohu, are you more confident?"

Xiaohu was thinking about something else, "I'm not human...you actually said I'm not human?"

Qu Jianlei rolled his eyes helplessly, "Well, let's talk for a while, work hard, I think you are not far from being born with an independent personality."

Immediately afterwards, the person on the other side sternly spoke, "8384, I order you to stop!"

"Okay, now it's robbery. If you are willing to give up resistance, we will guarantee the safety of all crew members."
