Chapter 599
It must be admitted that the asteroid belt is indeed very chaotic, but at the same time, there are really few heinous cases.
First, it is a prosperous star field after all, and second, although it is bad here, the order is maintained by several major forces.
In the vast space, robbery cases are really not uncommon, but it is indeed rare for a successful robbery to kill people.
But Qu Jianlei and Xiaohu did not respond and chose to continue running for their lives.
But unfortunately, it was useless. The two warships and six attack ships on the opposite side were pressing and squeezing bit by bit.
Those assault ships have already launched an attack, but the intensity is not very high.
The two merchant ships also started to attack, but the intensity was properly controlled, and there was absolutely no possibility of blowing up the other side.
They didn't think about destroying each other—if the ship was smashed, how much would there be to grab?
The attack of these ships is just to force the other party to drive in a certain direction, just like a seasoned shepherd dog chasing sheep.
It must be admitted that their cooperation was quite skillful, and they drove the opponent's starship to the designated direction without knowing it.
This kind of exquisite cooperation, not to mention the shepherd dogs, in the military, except for the elite squad, ordinary soldiers can't do it.
So practice makes perfect, if you haven't teamed up and snatched three or five times together, you can't cultivate this kind of tacit understanding at all.
After the tattered merchant ship fleeing ahead was attacked, they also started to fight back, but again, they didn't dare to use too much intensity.
This truth is obvious, and no one will be surprised.
The attackers showed mercy, and the hunted target really dared to fight back forcefully. In case of damage, would they be able to pay the price?
The final result may be that the entire crew of the merchant ship will be killed. At this moment, is it necessary to bet that the other party is kind enough?
The reaction of the hunted was quite panicked, feeling that they had not received sufficient training and lacked actual combat experience.
So inadvertently, it is not too surprising to occasionally shoot some harmless tracer bullets.
For the looters, such a timid counterattack was completely expected.
The losses suffered by one's own side are almost negligible. So far, the battle plan does not seem to need to be changed.
But the three butchers kept muttering, "Crap, No. 2 was shot again, pity my energy block..."
The cook ignored him, that's why cooperation is bad, everyone likes to emphasize their own losses.
But please make it clear that when dividing the spoils in the end, it depends on the performance, who has the best attack effect, and has nothing to do with the cost!
After the 50,000-kilometer encirclement was formed, two assault ships flew out of her merchant ship, assault ships.
The cook's armed merchant ship is smaller than the three butchers' space carrier, but compared with ordinary armed merchant ships, it is still a size larger.
This merchant ship has thick armor, enough power, and numerous weapons, so that the space inside the ship is not large, and the cargo capacity is not much.
It is really not easy to make room for two assault-type attack ships.
But the three butchers muttered again, "You actually got two attack ships, and you only use them now... that's too much!"
Too much is not too much, do you have the final say? The cook snorted coldly.
But in order to ensure that there would be no disputes during the distribution of the spoils, she still replied, "Assault type, crispy skin!"
The crispy attack ship is best used in the final attack, completely disintegrating the opponent's close defense,
The three butchers are also very clear that the other party has some selfishness, but the reason is tenable.
So he couldn't care about it, he could only laugh, "You're being too careful, look, isn't this the crispy skin again?"
"But it's useless, it's just tracer bullets... There are really a group of rookies on the opposite side."
The cook is not used to him at all, "A bunch of rookies, right? Who was too scared to get out of the attack ship just now?"
The third butcher was not happy, "Am I afraid? It's just a prudence, you come out to pick up the work... don't you consider the cost?"
Just when the robbers thought they were about to complete their work, Qu Jianlei and Xiaohu were analyzing.
"Let me confirm again, there are still a few independent combat bodies that have not been successfully invaded by you... including those that have not been awakened."
Xiaohu replied, "Two armed merchant ships, including an aerospace carrier, have successfully invaded."
"Six assault ships, including three backup assault ships on the mothership, have also successfully invaded."
"Two assault ships, one of which has completed 90% of the invasion."
"The extent of the other ship's invasion is only 54%, and it will take about ten seconds before it can be fully controlled."
Qu Jianlei frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Are there any omissions?"
"There are none now," Xiaohu replied very simply, "Boss, I will wait for you to blow the horn of counterattack."
"Don't make trouble," Qu Jianlei actually likes to hear other people's flattery, but this thing can't be used.
"Be careful, take the initiative to explore the surrounding 500,000 kilometers to see if there are other ships."
The perception of this distance is the limit of the empire's current technology.
It's not impossible to sense things half a million kilometers away, but it can only be sensed - a battle broke out there.
As long as the current information is not observed and captured, it doesn't matter.
Any information has timeliness, and all behaviors that talk about information regardless of timeliness are playing exiles.
However, active detection beyond 500,000 kilometers will greatly increase the consumption of energy blocks and reduce the life of the equipment.
And this kind of behavior in space itself means very aggressive.
If the starship is only worried about being hurt by foreign objects, it is enough to turn on passive perception.
Xiaohu said, "700,000 kilometers away, there are two starships forming a team, and they seem to be passing by."
"Then wait a minute," Qu Jianlei was not so mad that he even killed the onlookers, "How long can we hold on?"
"Rush forward, and you can last for ten minutes," Xiaohu gave a precise answer.
"Their encirclement formed, but only to the side and behind, and we could keep running."
This is nonsense - as long as I run fast, it is impossible for others to surround me.
The 8384 merchant ship has been fully remodeled. As long as they are willing to run, the guys behind may not be able to catch up.
Qu Jianlei pondered for a while and said, "Turn on the top load mode of the normal state, and try to persist for ten minutes."
The normal state is different from the accelerated state before the jump, and now in the battle, the jump is basically equivalent to courting death.
However, the top load is very damaging to the engine and cannot be used for a long time.
The 8384 merchant ship turned on the top load, and was immediately discovered by the cook and the three butchers, "You still want to run now? It's too late!"
In addition to the attack ship, the two armed merchant ships also began to accelerate, which was actually faster than the fleeing merchant ship.
Qu Jianlei noticed this scene, and smacked his lips helplessly, "Well, I have something to do, and I have to modify the engine later."
Both of his battleships have undergone considerable changes, but the drive system has only been slightly optimized.
However, the driving performance of the two merchant ships that were chasing was quite superior, and they were obviously specially modified.
This is the helplessness of being far away from mainstream society.
Qu Jianlei can only rub the components with his hands, but the other party can use the equipment and experience of the industrialized society to make targeted changes.
He hadn't thought about modifying the power system before, because it was quite difficult, the materials were hard to find, and the cost was high.
In his mind, it is basically enough to ensure that the merchant ship has a good driving performance.
Anyway, in space, he is not afraid of encountering enemies, and he can fight physically for a short time when he is in a hurry.
But now the two merchant ships on the opposite side reminded him: speed is still very important in conventional battles and when chasing and fleeing.
However, it is very helpless, this is not a problem that can be solved in the short term.
He sighed, "Why do you feel that there are more and more things?"
Xiaohu said disapprovingly, "Go back and dismantle their power system and study it."
Qu Jianlei shook his head, "It's not easy to match, maybe it can't be used immediately, and the material is also a big problem."
Three minutes later, the red light of the power system flashed faster and faster.
"Slow down," Qu Jianlei sighed, if you don't slow down, the engine will break down.
Seeing that the two merchant ships behind were still speeding up, he pouted depressingly, "Sure enough, industrialization is the kingly way."
"I can't care about that much anymore, let's do it."
The next moment, an exclamation came from an attack ship, "Hey, this power...why did it stall?"
As soon as the voice fell, there were exclamations one after another in the public channel.
"Oops," the cook's indifferent face showed unconcealable horror, "get out of the battle quickly."
"Boss, the control system is malfunctioning," someone yelled in panic, "70% of the possibilities are data attacks!"
"I'm rough..." The cook couldn't help cursing angrily, "I just knew that this junk thing is not authentic."
"But I'm surprised, the protective cover is good, how can it encounter data attacks?"
"Boss," the star thief exclaimed again, referring to the protective cover, "the protection strength is dropping sharply."
"Cook!" The voice of the three butchers came out, sounding quite annoyed.
"You fucked me up, we're not finished, labor and management will take the first step."
"Hmph," the cook snorted coldly, "take a step first, can you run?"
"The fire control system is malfunctioning," someone yelled again, "it can't be controlled manually!"
The muscles on the cook's face kept twitching, "What about the assault ship? Is it the same?"
"The two attack ships have lost contact," someone replied loudly, "The backup power failed!"
"I'm rude," the cook gritted her teeth fiercely, froze for about three seconds, and said coldly, "Show the surrender signal."
As expected of a decisive bandit, he realized that he had hit the big board, and made a decisive decision to surrender.
However, what she got was extremely bad news, "Boss, the lighting, the lighting control system... also failed!"
"Boss, that ship 8384 has come back!"
The cook's face turned white in an instant, "What did we provoke this time?"
