When the opposing fleet entered the attack range of their spaceship, the crew mbers who rushed over after hearing the alarm gasped in shock.
Soone was so scared that they were trembling and stuttering, "....Star, star pirates, it’s the star pirates’ fleet."
And it was from the most notorious fleet of the Fifth World.
The Fifth World refers not only to the fleet in front of them, but rather to a massive force.
They burn, kill, loot, committing every imaginable cri, and encountering them nearly always ans no survival.
Their reputation is built on flesh and blood.
Especially since they absorb creatures of all races, even the universally despised Insect Race and Aliens, as long as there’s profit to be made, can offer their value and beco one of them.
It can be said that the Fifth World is a paradise for evildoers.
However, despite their heinous acts, detestable to the core, there has always been an unwritten rule between them and the Alliance and several major empires that official vessels must not be touched.
Da Li gravely issued a command to the person beside him, "Investigate their route to see if it’s a coincidental encounter, and have our ship move aside to let them pass first."
Everyone knew this was just Da Li deceiving himself....
Because they are currently traveling through an official channel belonging to the Alliance.
Generally speaking, they would never encounter star pirates.
Yet now, not only did they appear, but their target seed to be heading directly towards them.
Da Li: "Adjust the cannon targets, if...."
Da Li couldn’t finish his sentence. Although their spaceship was also equipped with cannons, as an exploratory ship, it would be destroyed by the star pirates’ fully ard combat lasers without even needing to fire a shot.
Da Li: "Get a line to Capital Star."
Right now, the only solution was to have the officials directly negotiate with them.
"Captain, the communication equipnt is malfunctioning, we cannot contact Capital Star."
Upon hearing this, everyone’s hearts sank to the bottom.
In such a situation, Su Li walked in slowly while draped in clothes, "What’s going on? It’s so noisy that I can’t even rest."
Da Li: "It’s star pirates...."
Suddenly, Da Li’s gaze towards Su Li changed, and he pounded his fist on the table, his fierce eyes sweeping over the Dada Star People behind.
Seeing Su Li, he imdiately realized that these interstellar pirates had co for this Earth woman in front of him.
It was only in such a short ti that they figured it out, indicating....there was an insider.
Previously too excited, they ignored these signs altogether.
He had forgotten that there was such a group of star pirates specialized in trafficking precious species within the interstellar world.
Each ti they discovered new species and planets, the creatures on that planet would be massively abducted and snatched away within a period of ti.
No matter how technologically advanced they beco, the depravity of predation is still rooted in the hearts of powerful beings.
Da Li gritted his teeth and said, "Don’t let find out who among you leaked the information."
However, Da Li being angry was already to no avail, because within rely a few breaths, their spaceship had been surrounded by the fleet of the Fifth World.
Looking out from the ship’s transparent windows, they could see the huge golden skull emblem on the enemy’s ship.
Pitch-black cannons were pointing directly at them.
The people on the ship were almost scared out of their wits, crying, "Cap-Captain, what should we do?"
After all, they were rely mbers of the official species protection association, belonging to civil service, where had they ever seen such a scene.
Su Li cocked her head, pointing her finger at Ryan, "You’re all so scared, but he seems quite happy."
Ryan’s secret smile was too late to be hidden and was abruptly pointed out by Su Li.
Everyone turned their heads in astonishnt towards Ryan.
In the midst of everyone’s worried expressions, Ryan’s relaxed deanor stood out awkwardly.
Da Li rushed over and punched Ryan in the nose, causing blood to flow down imdiately.
Da Li: "You leaked the information, didn’t you? What good does this do for you?"
In her previous life, the original owner encountered interstellar pirates three months later, which probably wasn’t accidental.
It was just unexpected that things would change so drastically this ti.
For so unknown reason, the star pirates, who should have appeared three months later, showed up on the second day after Su Li boarded the ship.
Realizing he was caught, Ryan, looking reckless, wiped the blood off his face, and cynically said, "It’s because of money. I want to have lots and lots of money."
After he finished, he smiled encouragingly at the others, "It’s just an unawakened primitive star female. Sell her to the Fifth World, and they can give us a lot of money."
"With that money, we can return to Capital Star, live comfortably for a lifeti, and no longer have to risk our lives for that paltry salary from the Alliance.... Also, the people of that planet are so weak, we can go back and report that they all died.... No one will know what we’ve done."
Da Li roared, "Don’t you know she might share the sa origin with us?"
Ryan shook his head amusingly, pointing mockingly at Su Li, "Her of all people?"
"An Earth person who can’t even eat at chunks, I’ll never admit to having any connection with her."
Ryan had long been displeased with Da Li and took this opportunity to continually incite others, "Think about it, would you rather die under the star pirates’ iron boot or have a large sum of money and pretend nothing happened?"
Seeing so people’s hesitation, Ryan added fuel to the fire.
He laughed sinisterly, "I’ve intercepted the ssages you sent to Capital Star, so you can forget about waiting for any rescue from Capital Star."
As soon as Ryan finished speaking, those who had been hesitant imdiately beca more resolute.
They apologized to Da Li with their eyes and then steadily and firmly sided with Ryan.
Except for Da Li and the few Dada Star People supporting him, everyone else stood united with Ryan.
No matter how precious a species is, it cannot compare with one’s own life.
Those people instead tried to persuade Da Li, "It can’t be helped."
Su Li looked on with interest as the two parties stood in a standoff.
She rested her chin on one hand, lazily lounging in the wide chair, her eyes half-lidded, and casually interjected, "Hey, have any of you asked for my opinion?"
