Chapter 178: Resistance!
When he was about to fall asleep, his pillow came. Li Yu was worrying about where to get a new spaceship. After all, this kind of travel ship was too uncomfortable and could not dock on the Blazing Eye Star.
I didn't expect to run into the looters who were sending love as soon as I went out.
In the captain's room, Dave stared at the approaching predator warship with a grim face. He was the captain of this travel ship and had been sailing on this route for more than ten years and had never encountered such a thing.
Being hijacked by pirates basically means the end of his career as a captain, even if the reason for the hijacking is not his fault.
No one wanted to travel on a ship captained by a pirate.
"We can't just surrender like this!" Dave gritted his teeth.
The captain of the security team was a pot-bellied interstellar human. When he heard Dave's words, his face suddenly changed: "You are not thinking of fighting them, are you?"
"We don't have any weapons systems on board, how can we fight?!"
"Boarding battle!" Dave clenched his fists. "There's only one warship on the other side, and not many people on it. Once they board the ship for inspection, we can catch them off guard!"
"Kill the enemy by surprise?" The captain's eyes widened: "Rely on you? Or on me? Or on these [Enver people]?"
"There are so many passengers, and among them are many powerful interstellar species. As long as we unite, we will surely succeed!" Dave's eyes became brighter as he spoke, as if he had foreseen what success would look like.
He led the crew and successfully resisted the plunderers. This achievement will surely allow him to drive a more advanced travel ship!
"Idiot!" The captain growled, "If you want to go, go by yourself. I won't follow you to die!"
"Attention, spacecraft ahead, please activate your energy shields to prevent unnecessary casualties from our forceful attack."
"We have no intention of killing anyone. If you cooperate, you can leave here safely."
A warning came from the other party in the channel, and Dave's face changed slightly again. There is no time!
The risks of fighting in space are very high. Once the spacecraft explodes and falls into space, the only outcome is death.
However, this travel ship was not equipped with any powerful firepower and had no chance of winning against the warship.
Therefore, he was not prepared to fight the enemy via the travel ship.
He turned on the broadcast system, coughed dryly, and said:
"Attention passengers, I'm Captain Dave. Unfortunately... we've encountered marauders. They're about to board the ship for inspection. Although there's a joint notice, they shouldn't hurt anyone."
"But these plunderers are a group of thugs without reason or morality. For the safety of your life and property, I implore you to join me in defending this spaceship..."
The broadcast sounded in the cabin, and most of the interstellar passengers looked at each other in confusion. Was the captain calling on everyone to resist?
There are indeed some powerful interstellar tribes among the passengers, such as the [Vic Bear People]. They are over three meters tall, covered with black hair, with paws as big as millstones. They have amazing combat power, and are D-level life forms when they reach adulthood.
Or they could be the [Ismantis]. They are small, only about half a meter in size, incredibly fast and flexible, and have a pair of extremely sharp mantis arms, comparable to steel.
As for higher races, they would not take such low-level travel ships.
However, no one is willing to do so for the time being. After all, Infield is a large company and has publicly promised that if they are held hostage, they will be responsible for all ransoms.
Many large travel companies offer this service and it is included in the high ticket prices.
In this case, why bother fighting against the predators? If something unexpected happens, your life may be in danger.
"...Although most of the passengers on the last Ping An returned safely, a small number of passengers were beaten or even violated, regardless of gender or race..."
Dave made a drastic move, and many passengers became restless after hearing this.
These interstellar predators have done all sorts of bad things. If they see an old man falling down on the road, they will kick him a few times or stab him eight times. It is impossible to expect them to hijack a travel ship without harming anyone.
Sinai hugged Keller tightly in his arms with a sad expression. First, he encountered the battle between gangsters in the Terran Building, and now he encountered the interstellar predators.
This is something that we haven't seen in more than ten years, but I encountered two cases when I did.
The little girl Keller in her arms opened her mouth wide and gasped: "Mom, you're suffocating me..."
"Ah? I'm sorry, baby..." Sinai was in a panic and let Keller go from his arms.
There was a slight commotion among the interstellar passengers, and some of them looked hesitant.
"Then let's fight!" A tall figure stood up from the seat in front of Li Yu. It was the [Parr]. A pungent fragrance mixed with a faint stench filled the air.
However, no one disliked the smell on him at this time. As the first person to stand up, he won the respect of everyone.
"It's not like I haven't killed predators before..." He shouted in a loud voice, "It makes no difference. They all wail when their genitals are kicked."
As soon as these words were spoken, there was a lot of laughter, which diluted the pressure and anxiety brought by the plunderers, and many people expressed their willingness to join.
Dave also hurried from the captain's room to the cabin and began to encourage the hesitant passengers.
The results were indeed remarkable, and many powerful interstellar travelers expressed their willingness to join, mainly because of Dave's persuasion, and also because these people did not know much about the predators.
Seeing that many people had joined in, I gained more courage.
"That guy should be a mercenary..." the hunter whispered. Li Yu nodded. Mo Duo closed his eyes between the two of them, too lazy to open them.
"Pay attention to the [rat man] in seat G in the fourth row..."
Li Yu's mind moved slightly, but he didn't take any action. A tiny surveillance probe was assembled on the shoulder of the [Titan Colonial Suit].
The "rat man" who kept lowering and raising his head from time to time came into Li Yu's sight.
The hunter lowered his voice and explained, "That should be a hook. These predators will bury the hook inside the tour group before taking action."
"It is mainly used for positioning and tipping off."
The hunter said very experiencedly: "I have been paying attention to the surroundings for a long time. He is the only one in the first-class cabin who is most suspicious. I just don't know if this ship has only this one hook. If we want to take action, we'd better be cautious."
If all the predators cannot be dealt with in a short period of time, once they attack the travel ship, even Li Yu will have to sink into the boundless starry sky and wait for death.
Even arousing the other party's suspicion may lead to such consequences.
"brother!"
The light was dim, and the strong smell made Li Yu's eyes twitch slightly. The hunter immediately shut up, and the [Parr] stood in front of Li Yu.
Mo Duo opened his eyes with a frown, took out a gas mask from the compressed space, put it on his face, and continued to close his eyes and rest.
Li Yu looked up and saw that the actions of this [Parr] attracted the attention of many passengers.
Xiang Sen said in a loud voice: "I have been paying attention to you for a long time. Apart from me, you are the only passenger who has not panicked at all. I believe you must be very capable."
"Join us to fight against the predators! This is not only to save others, but also to save yourself!"
Xiang Sen extended his hand to Li Yu. Many people had responded to Xiang Sen’s call before, and several stronger travelers also joined.
Li Yu felt that his nose was about to be damaged by the smoke, and he gave the hunter a look without saying a word. The hunter whispered a few words to Li Ping next to him.
"Lord Liping, what do you think?" Li Yu turned and asked Liping.
Li Ping received the hunter's order, nodded calmly, stood up and said: "In that case, I will join in."
Payton sat by the window, staring at the empty starry sky with empty eyes. Hunter covered his nose and held down the brim of his hat. Moduo wore a gas mask and closed his eyes to rest. Li Yu sat in his seat with an indifferent expression.
Only the boss Liping stood up and communicated with Xiangsen?
Is this guy the boss? Several question marks popped up in Xiangsen's head, and he felt that something was wrong.
He hesitated slightly and extended his hand to Liping. Liping walked straight out and shook his hand expressionlessly.
Dave asked, "What is your strength? Can you please let us know so we can make a battle plan?"
Including the security team and passengers, there were a total of about ten D-class life forms and dozens of E-class life forms.
This force was neither big nor small. Several people nearby looked at Li Ping expectantly, to see how powerful this person who was personally invited by Xiang Sen could be.
"C-level mutant..." Liping's voice was silent, but it was no less than a bomb ringing in everyone's ears.
"C-level...psychic?" Xiang Sen's throat rolled, and he began to believe that Li Ping was the boss of this group of people. Otherwise, Li Ping would be a C-level life form. If he was not the boss, what level of life forms would the others have?
B-rank? How is that possible!?
C-class life forms have not yet become rampant in the interstellar space, and they are at management level no matter where they serve.
Xiang Sen didn't expect to encounter a C-level life form in this garbage travel ship.
"If you were a C-class life form, your chances of success would be even greater." Dave looked excited, feeling that the Emperor was protecting him.
"I have a question." Li Ping pondered. He did not lose his independent thinking except when facing Li Yu.
"You say..." Xiangsen's attitude became even more respectful.
"Have you not considered the opponent's strength? What if the opponent has a large number of C-level life forms, or even B-level life forms?"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere suddenly became silent. Dave forced a smile and explained, "This is impossible. If the other party is so powerful, there must be more than one warship."
"They can definitely send out a small fleet."
Li Ping didn't say anything else. He looked at Li Yu calmly, as if asking how he performed.
Li Yu nodded imperceptibly to express his praise. Li Ping's face immediately turned red, unable to suppress his inner excitement.
Xiang Sen always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't put it into words. He stared at Li Yu and the other three, looking at them again and again.
Since Liping is a C-class life form, he must be the boss. It is already very puzzling that a C-class life form would make such a rubbish airship.
It is even more impossible for a B-level life form to ride on such a rubbish airship.
In the corner, the [Rat Man] lowered his head and quickly typed on a special transmitting device and sent it through a specific channel.
The interstellar network of this spacecraft has been blocked. This is a normal operation to avoid premature leakage of information.
In such a place, no predator can resist the joint pursuit of the Star Empire and the Amethyst Civilization.
Time was running out, and everyone began to make quick arrangements. All the passengers near the cabin door were replaced. This place was very close to the cabin door, so they could take action in the fastest time and end the battle quickly.
"…This is your last warning. If you don't activate the energy shield, we will attack!"
The marauders had given several warnings, and this was the last time, so they were getting a little impatient.
Buzz——
The light blue shield covering the travel ship gradually disappeared, and the predator warship approached, slowly moving sideways, approaching the hatches.
The brutal plunderer warship ignored the resistance of the travel ship and with a loud bang, the two doors fit together tightly.
No matter how much they resisted, the hatch of the travel ship could only be pried open, allowing the other party to invade and take things.
The people lying in ambush near the hatch were ready to move, staring at the open hatch. The other interstellar passengers were nervous, not knowing what the outcome would be.
There was no movement in the corridor connecting the two hatches for a long time, and just when everyone was puzzled.
Two unclear objects were thrown in, and with a sound of gas leakage, a large amount of yellow smoke began to spread.
Everyone's eyes widened, obviously not expecting this.
Li Yu almost laughed out loud when he saw this scene. It was such a familiar scene. It had been a long time since he saw a battle where throwing objects were used to clear the field first.
The main thing is that most of the enemies we encounter now are wearing armor, and air filtration and self-circulation systems are standard.
But it is still very convenient and quick to deal with this group of interstellar travelers.
Those who were closer soon fell into a coma after breathing in the yellow smoke, while those D-level life forms could resist a little and barely maintained consciousness.
But there is no ability to resist.
Xiang Sen, on the other hand, was not affected at all. He stared with anger, feeling dejected and powerless. He had lost most of his combat power before even seeing the enemy. How could anyone fight like this! ?
He placed his hope on Liping. Under his expectant eyes, Liping's body swelled up, and the silvery-white metal body gave Xiangsen hope.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Along with the sound of chaotic footsteps, several figures gradually walked out from the yellow smoke. They were wearing gas masks and looked around indifferently.
"Bah, you still want to resist? Idiot!" Someone spat, but spat on the gas mask. He immediately felt disgusted and kicked Dave hard in his seat.
He had already fainted, and the kick sent him flying off his seat.
The plunderer next to him immediately shouted, "Be careful! Don't kill anyone. Every living person is worth a star coin."
"So weak? Their boss hasn't come yet?" Li Yu frowned slightly. The yellow smoke lingered in front of his nose, posing no threat to him.
The first-class cabin was far away from the cabin door, and the plunderers did not notice the four people who were still awake.
