Volume 3 Chapter 135: The Birth of the Pirate Queen
"What are your plans next?" On the Skylark, Lin Xu asked Anna, who had followed him all the way.
"What about you? What are you planning to do? Go to war with the Galactic Alliance and the Mechanical Empire?" Anna, who had already made some guesses about Lin Xu's identity after observing along the way, still had some disbelief in her tone when she spoke here.
Relying on only these few people, they are going to start a war with the huge Galactic Alliance and the Mechanical Empire.
If it were in the past, she would have just thought it was a fantasy.
Just a few people, not even enough to be space pirates, and they started a war? They were put out before a wave even rose. I guess from beginning to end, they didn't even qualify to be on the news.
But now, she really felt that if Lin Xu decided to go to war, it was hard to say whether he could win. She had never seen what kind of power Lin Xu possessed. But even so , she felt that the Galactic Alliance and the Mechanical Empire were definitely in big trouble.
"Start a war? Not necessarily. My goal is just to recover the high-dimensional items left behind by humans, that's all." Lin Xu shook his head and said.
"But the process of taking it back will definitely not be peaceful. Who would be willing to give up the power of a higher dimension?" Anna sighed.
"Excessive and frequent use of high-dimensional objects to release high-dimensional power will only accelerate the entropy of the universe and shorten the life of the universe. If they have the ability to make high-dimensional objects for use, we will not ask. But using high-dimensional objects made by humans to increase the entropy of the universe is something we do not allow."
During the conversation, the Skylark had already arrived at the defense line jointly built by the Galactic Alliance and the Mechanical Empire.
From the very beginning, this line of defense was not intended to guard against external enemies, but rather against this planet of human relics within the galaxy.
Therefore, all kinds of turrets and armed fortresses built around planets all point their weapons into the interior of the galaxy.
When the Skylark did not conceal the fact that it flew out from the relic planet, the entire defense line had already discovered the existence of the Skylark.
However, no alarm sounded on the defense line.
After all, it is just a small spaceship over a hundred meters long. Compared with the huge fleets of the Galactic Alliance and the Mechanical Empire stationed in the galaxy, it is not even a drop in the bucket.
Even the monitors who were responsible for monitoring this area and discovered the Skylark were mostly confused. How could a spaceship suddenly fly out from this planet without any concealment? Was it out of its mind?
They also knew that although large spaceships could not approach the planet, some small spaceships could still sneak in quietly, but it was more troublesome.
So when the Skylark flew out from the planet, the monitor simply gave a signal, asking the Skylark to dock and be inspected immediately.
Then several turrets routinely pointed their guns at the Skylark, and most of the equipment on the defense line did not even move.
However, something happened that no one on the defense line expected.
The small spaceship did not slow down at all and continued to fly towards the defense line at superluminal speed.
"What's going on? Is there something wrong with the warp drive?"
"As expected, the driver was drunk, wasn't he?"
"What I hate most is drunk driving. They are looking for trouble when there is nothing to do."
Even at this time, the people on the defense line did not think that there would be any problems with the small spaceship. They were more thinking about whether something unexpected had happened.
After all, this is a defense line surrounded by a huge army, and you are trying to break through with a small spaceship. Anyone with a normal mind will subconsciously ignore this possibility.
Until the Skylark got closer and closer, and at the same time, there were waves of space fluctuations on all sides of the Skylark.
A large number of autonomous mechanical aggregates surged out from Lin Xu's personal space.
A huge number of autonomous mechanical aggregates suddenly appeared in front of the defense line.
"Alert, alert, unidentified flying objects have appeared in front of the defense line, the number is one hundred thousand, one million, ten million, and it is still increasing."
The alarm sounded throughout the entire defense line in the blink of an eye. The soldiers and staff who were originally living a leisurely life, no one would have thought that this planet would have the power to fight back.
At this moment, the only reaction was confusion.
After the confusion, they hurried back to their respective jobs in a panic.
So the huge war machines of the Galactic Alliance and the Mechanical Empire started moving.
Unfortunately, compared to the endless autonomous mechanical aggregates, the various turrets and warships on the entire line of defense are simply vulnerable.
The intelligent life forms in this galaxy, due to the lack of years of war, have less weapons used in warfare than the major races in the Milky Way.
Even in the Milky Way, autonomous mechanical aggregates are rampant.
Not to mention getting here.
Anna, standing in front of the porthole of the Skylark, watched as the massive autonomous mechanical aggregates blew away the huge defense line like a whirlwind. At the same time, under Lin Xu's order, they began to encircle the entire galaxy, aiming to wipe out the armed forces of the Galactic Alliance and the Mechanical Empire.
I couldn't help but swallow a few times.
At first, she just thought that Lin Xu would cause a lot of trouble to the Galaxy Alliance and the Mechanical Empire.
But now she realized that this was not a trouble at all, it was a natural disaster.
Anna even felt that as long as Lin Xu was willing, he could easily destroy the entire Galactic Alliance and the Mechanical Empire.
Fortunately, his purpose is only to recover high-dimensional objects, so the war should not escalate, otherwise the entire river system will inevitably be involved in the war.
That would be the real disaster.
On the other side, Lin Xu didn't care at all what Anna was thinking.
What he was worried about now was whether the high-dimensional items that the Galactic Alliance and the Mechanical Empire had taken from the relic planet some time ago had been transported to the rear.
It would be best if it hasn't been transported away yet.
Otherwise, Lin Xu would need to recycle a lot more high-dimensional items.
Although these are just ordinary high-dimensional items and not destructive level, they are still a trouble.
At the same time, Lin Xu also had to prevent the situation where the people who were originally not transported away were transported away during the chaos after the fight broke out.
That was why he adopted a large-scale roundabout encirclement strategy, just to ensure that no spaceship could escape.
Only in this way can we ensure that the high-dimensional items obtained by the Galactic Alliance and the Mechanical Empire some time ago have not been taken away.
Lin Xu was recruited to Anna's satellite logistics base on the gas planet.
The once prosperous logistics base turned into a mess in the blink of an eye.
"What's going on? What happened? Where did the enemy come from?"
"I don't know. The first line of defense has been breached. Run."
"Goods, my goods."
"Oh no! The second line of defense has also been breached and is about to arrive."
"You don't want the goods anymore, run!"
"We can't run away, we can't run away. We're blocked and we can't escape."
Boom, boom, boom, all kinds of light beams cut through the universe.
The temporary battleships composed of autonomous mechanical aggregates that were encircling the galaxy had already flown out of the galaxy and were attacking from outside the galaxy.
All the businessmen at the logistics base who wanted to escape were blocked back in one fell swoop.
At the same time, in order to retreat back to the defense line, the Mechanical Empire's fleet also assembled a large number of warships and launched an attack against the temporary warships.
Unfortunately, the combat power of both sides is not at the same level at all.
One after another, the Mechanical Empire's warships were blown up.
At the same time, the temporary battleship was at most slightly damaged, and then it dispersed again into an autonomous mechanical aggregate, removing the damaged parts and reassembling, and another intact temporary battleship appeared.
Even so, the number of damaged makeshift warships was extremely small.
Often, the loss of hundreds of Mechanical Empire warships is not enough to damage a temporary warship.
After repeated technological upgrades, the temporary warships composed of autonomous mechanical aggregates are no longer comparable to the temporary warships that were just launched out of the solar system.
It can even be said that they have been upgraded for several generations.
In this way, the entire galaxy was surrounded, ensuring that no spaceship would escape, and Lin Xu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that they were surrounded and unable to defeat the enemy no matter what they did, some of the fleets of the Mechanical Empire and the Galactic Alliance surrendered.
It’s a pity that this place is different from the Milky Way. The Galactic Alliance and the Mechanical Empire, which have dominated this galaxy for too long, don’t know where the enemy came from or why they are so strong.
But I won't surrender to others easily.
After all, if you surrender today, and the Alliance and the Empire fight back, what will you do?
Moreover, in their concept, the Alliance and the Empire will most likely be able to fight back.
After all, there is no force in this galaxy that can challenge these two forces.
In this case, surrender would naturally be a bad omen.
So, the hardliners eliminated the surrenderists and continued to fight to the death.
Lin Xu had no choice but to reluctantly order the autonomous mechanical aggregate to destroy them all.
While the battle was still going on at the front line, a large number of temporary warships were gathering to annihilate the Alliance and the Empire.
On the other side, Lin Xu had already arrived at the logistics base of the gas planet on the Skylark.
According to the front-line database that Zhenxing has obtained, the magical items obtained from the relic planet are all stored in this logistics base and have not yet been transported away.
This made Lin Xu breathe a sigh of relief, and then he came here again as soon as possible.
When the Skylark docked, a large number of Qin Terracotta Army armed robots had already taken control of the ground.
Including high-dimensional objects in various research institutes, they were also found.
Lin Xu personally went to various research institutes and, based on the information provided by Wang Jian, archived each high-dimensional item, and then sealed their abilities and stored them on Earth.
Now I understand what is happening here.
Otherwise, if the high-dimensional objects were to spread from here throughout the galaxy, even if they could be recovered later, they would inevitably face many troubles.
The best outcome would be to be able to get them all back now.
"Have you thought it through? What are you going to do next?" Lin Xu looked at the explosions that occurred from time to time in space. Those were the temporary warships that were still encircling the warships of the Alliance and the Empire. At the same time, he asked Anna who was not far away.
"Can't I continue to follow you?" Anna asked a little guiltily.
"Our previous agreement only said that I would take you to that planet, but it didn't say that I would always be with you in the future." Lin Xu said with a smile.
"Well, it seems that my adventure is about to end, but I am very lucky to have experienced such an adventure. When I am old, I will definitely brag about this experience to my granddaughter. The premise is that I can have descendants." Anna said with a shrug.
"Although the original agreement was just to take you to that planet, at least we got to know each other, so I'll give you a gift in the end." Lin Xu said after thinking about it.
"Gift? What gift?" Anna's ears immediately pricked up.
"Go and choose a ship. Then you can load as much goods and supplies as you want from this logistics base. No matter how much you can take, it's yours. These things are of no use to us anyway." Lin Xu said generously.
"Just install it casually? Can I recruit some people now? Otherwise, I can't drive a big ship by myself." Anna asked with a turn of eyes.
She has realized that this may be the biggest opportunity in her life, so of course she must seize it as much as possible.
"Of course, as long as you can recruit them, it's up to you." Lin Xu nodded.
This port now has countless adventurers and various characters from all over the world.
At the same time, there are also many crew members on merchant ships. As long as the price can be offered, they can be poached. It all depends on Anna's ability.
"Then can I get weapons and equipment?" Anna continued to ask.
"It's up to you, as long as you can take it away." Lin Xu said indifferently.
"Then can I take a few more escort ships? If it's just cargo ships, I'm afraid of being robbed." Anna cleverly concealed her intention to take a few more ships.
"As long as you can take it. But I have to remind you first, I will only stay until the battle is over." Lin Xu looked at Anna seriously, and he felt that he had a new respect for her.
He is ambitious and knows how to seize opportunities. It seems that he is not an ordinary detective.
"I understand." Anna looked at the Alliance and Imperial warships in space that were being surrounded by temporary warships, and nodded heavily.
Then he turned around and went back to work.
"Very motivated!" Nanzhu nodded in appreciation.
"Yes, I originally just wanted to give her a boat so that she could drive away. After all, she just wanted a ticket to leave here in the first place. Now in this situation, I don't know if her ticket will be useful. Who knew that she would seize the opportunity? This time, I guess she can directly raise a fleet, and it's a fleet with top-level firepower configuration." Lin Xu looked at the direction where Anna disappeared, feeling very emotional.
Anyway, he has no use for the things here, so let her do whatever she wants.
But at this moment, Anna's heart was burning with passion.
She didn't expect that the opportunity would come so suddenly.
But she would catch it anyway.
So she came to the port where merchants gathered, and with the authority given by Lin Xu, she directly entered the broadcasting hall of the port guarded by the Qin Terracotta Army armed robots.
Then start the broadcast.
Moreover, she deliberately confused the concepts and did not mention that she was recruiting crew members for herself, but directly declared that she was going to recruit crew members.
In this way, people who hear it will subconsciously think that it is the force that has just destroyed the Galactic Alliance and the Mechanical Empire fleet that is recruiting people.
It can be regarded as using the tiger's skin to raise a big banner.
Suddenly, there were enthusiastic responses.
After all, it can even destroy the fleets of the Galactic Alliance and the Mechanical Empire. Who wouldn’t want to give it a try when such a big force is recruiting people?
Then Anna took the recruited personnel and went directly to the dock to receive the warships of the Alliance and the Empire.
Because of Lin Xu's authorization, all the armed robots were allowed to pass.
This further enhanced Anna's prestige among her new subordinates.
Even though Anna later declared that she had only formed a privateering fleet, her subordinates also recognized her authority because she had the backing of a powerful force.
Not to mention that he was driving the latest warship that this powerful force had just snatched from the Alliance and the Empire.
Just like that, soon, a ragtag army consisting of more than a dozen warships was born.
After this ragtag army had moved supplies from various warehouses in the logistics base and barely filled a dozen warships half full, Anna ordered them to stop and prepare to set sail.
She couldn't really wait until the war was over before setting off. By then, without Lin Xu as her strong backer, this small fleet would have to face the wrath of the Alliance and the Empire alone. It would probably not be able to withstand even a small sneeze from the Alliance and the Empire.
So she had to leave early, before the war was over, before everything was in chaos.
Only in this way can she escape from this vortex.
However, before leaving, she went to say goodbye to Lin Xu.
Following Anna were a dozen captains and first officers that she had just promoted. They were hiding far behind her, quietly looking around.
They all knew that Lin Xu was the leader of the force in the starry sky that was encircling the Alliance and the Empire.
This can be seen from the way the armed robots addressed Lin Xu.
When Anna told the armed robots that they were going to meet their master.
The armed robot brought them here.
"Are you leaving now? There's still some time, you can definitely take some more things." Lin Xu was a little surprised, but also a little relieved.
If she hadn't been blinded by greed, she might have been able to achieve something in the future.
"It's already a lot. If I don't leave now, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave! So before I leave, I come to say goodbye to you."
Anna said as she hugged Nanzhu, Luyao, Mu Xiyue, and Miss Qiu in turn as a farewell.
So when she opened her arms to Lin Xu, Lin Xu did not act pretentiously and hugged her as well.
I have to say, Anna has a great figure and it's very comfortable to hug a beautiful woman.
But when they separated, they were ambushed.
That’s right, I was ambushed.
Anna kissed Lin Xu directly on the lips.
Lin Xu was a little surprised, but did not resist.
After all, being attacked by a beautiful woman is a happy thing.
Only Mu Xiyue, who was standing next to him, suddenly had boundless murderous aura surging around him, and the sword in his hand was flickering.
I never expected that after fighting with Nanzhu for so long, Anna actually got there first.
Nanzhu, on the other hand, was watching with a smile on his face, not minding at all.
Miss Qiu had a blank expression on her face, but she probably hoped that Anna would go a little further.
Lu Yao thinks you guys are so boring. I might as well do more exercises.
Only Anna's new subordinates who had been watching this place from a distance showed a lot more understanding after seeing this scene.
No wonder our new eldest sister could get so many new warships so easily and form a privateering fleet. It turns out that she is the lover of the leader. No wonder.
Finally, Anna ended her aggression against Lin Xu, and the two finally separated.
Anna ignored Lin Xu's small counterattack and apologized instead.
"I'm sorry, the situation is special, so I can only use you a little bit."
"It's okay, I'll just do you a favor in the end, and I won't lose anything." Lin Xu comforted her without really caring, otherwise Mu Xiyue's sword energy might really chop him down.
"That's all, see you later." Anna said goodbye.
Then he gave Nanzhu and Mu Xiyue an apologetic look, then turned around and left with his men.
And it was visibly apparent that her subordinates had become much more respectful.
"He's a very capable person." Nanzhu commented sincerely.
"Don't let me see her again." Mu Xiyue was sulking.
"Okay, it's time for us to go." Lin Xu looked at the space. The battle there was nearing its end.
Soon, a dozen warships led by Anna left the logistics base first.
Then the battle in space was completely over, and Lin Xu and others boarded the Skylark and prepared to set off.
Later, Anna went to the Chaos Star Region with the dozen or so latest warships obtained from the Galactic Alliance and the Mechanical Empire, and soon made a name for herself there.
Don’t be fooled by the fact that there are only a dozen warships. These are the latest warships from the Galactic Alliance and the Mechanical Empire, and they are also equipped with a full set of armed systems.
With more than a dozen warships like this in the chaotic star field, as long as they don't encounter the regular armies of the Galactic Alliance and the Mechanical Empire, they can completely launch a dimensionality reduction attack against other forces.
Later it was said that Anna became a pirate queen and cooperated with the God-Giver to dominate the chaotic star field.
But that happened later.
When later generations searched for the beginning of the legend of the Pirate Queen, they were all curious about how she initially became famous.
Only she herself understands that she was originally just a little detective, and everything originated from an encounter and adventure.
Of course, this is all a story for later.
And now, Lin Xu, Miss Qiu, Mu Xiyue, Nanzhu, and Lu Yao boarded the Skylark and set off again.
Although Mu Xiyue was still a little unhappy, she would not lose her temper in front of Lin Xu.
"Lord Lin Xu, where are we going next?" Nanzhu hugged Lin Xu's arm and asked coquettishly.
"Of course it's the capital of the Mechanical Empire." Lin Xu said as a matter of course.
They also have to retrieve high-dimensional objects that have the ability to upload consciousness.
"Well, as a celebration of the departure, Lord Lin Xu, shouldn't you express something?" Nanzhu thought for a moment, pouted slightly and gestured.
At the same time, he looked at Lin Xu, as if to say that you can't favor one over the other.
Lin Xu felt helpless when he saw this.
