Chapter 1119 It's My Turn

hat kind of mission did Master Wan Tian take If it's not far, I can send you directly there.""No need, it's too far from the border, at least a three-day journey. I wouldn't trouble you to make a spec..."Alright, pick your team quickly. Do you know how to choose"

A muscular man with a red crew cut asked.

"Okay, choose the pretty one."

Before the other person could finish speaking, the man with the crew cut slapped him on the head and shouted:

"What time is it, still thinking about the pretty one! Do you still want to run back"

The battered pirate touched his head and asked:

Which one do you choose

"Stupid! The First Academy is recruiting students. At least a third of the people on this spaceship are going to take the entrance exam. If we take everyone away, they'll be afraid to attack us, and we'll have a chance to escape, understand"

"Understood!"

They spoke openly, so everyone in the hold could hear. Most of them changed color, and some even gritted their teeth and prepared to charge, but they were held back by the energy beams wielded by the other party.

Then Ripple was lucky enough to become one of the hostages. It has to be said that these people often do bad things, and they do them very well. By the time the Central Star's rescue mecha squad arrived, a group of hostages had already been taken aboard the pirate ship.

The pirate leader openly negotiated with the captain of the mecha patrol, asking him to turn a blind eye and let them go. Otherwise, they would livestream a hostage killing, exposing the league's incompetence to the public.

The mech captain, Pang Mo, was itching to fight this band of space pirates. They were openly provoking their mech unit. If they let these pirates get away, they knew they would be forever shamed and ridiculed.

But because of the hostage's special nature, he couldn't flatly refuse the other party. So, after taking a deep breath, he began to negotiate with them:

We can let you go, but you have to guarantee the hostages' safe departure.

"You better behave yourself. I have hostages in my hands."

The pirate captain said arrogantly.

"Humph! You want to leave, I won't stop you, but if you don't let the hostages go, our mecha forces would rather have the hostages accompany you in death than let you escape!"

Pang Mo said fiercely.

The pirate captain was speechless. He stroked his chin and decided it was best not to provoke the mecha forces, otherwise they would have no peace for eternity. As the other side said, all they wanted was a smooth departure.

"Alright, let's each take a step back. I'll put the hostages in a lifeboat and release one every certain distance until we are completely out of this star system. If you try to stop us, I will detonate the lifeboats."

"No more than ten hostages shall be allowed on a lifeboat at any one time."

Pangmo began to haggle.

The pirate captain pursed his lips. He had originally planned to deploy those single-person lifeboats, which would have allowed him to cover a greater distance. Now that he had been called out, he could only settle for second best.

Because their spaceship couldn't compare to the Alliance in terms of performance, lacking the energy for a second spatial jump, he needed at least half an hour to make arrangements.

"Five hostages released at once!"

"No, at least eight!"

"No, only five!"

While the two leaders haggled, Ripples and her companions were being pushed into an empty chamber by laser guns.

"Behave yourselves, or I'll kill you!"

All of them were just barely adults. After being threatened, they all flinched and then huddled together.

After the door closed, everyone dared not make a sound. Some of the braver ones were looking around nervously.

Ripples touched the unscuffed neural hand bracelet, starting to try calling for help, but found that the signal was blocked. Her companions who had the same idea also made the same attempt, ending in failure.

But the ripples pretended not to be disheartened and tapped the light screen, then communicated with Xiaoliu:

"Have you hacked into the command system of the pirate spaceship"

"Breaching the last line of defense."

Xiaoliu rarely spoke so seriously.

"When did you hack into the Star Pirate ship system"

They transferred the hostages during a docking procedure with a spaceship.

"Right now, we're in the midst of space. We need to figure out how to change our spaceship's course. Our destination is the spaceport on the central star. But don't let anyone notice anything unusual. I don't believe I can't reach the central star."

Lin Ri is preparing for a grand celebration and has thrown all caution to the wind. She refuses to believe in bad omens.

"Understood! The final firewall has been breached. Program overwrite initiated, rewriting the main control program!"

Little Six was modifying the program while reporting progress.

Another half hour passed, and Xiao Liu gave feedback again:

"Ripples, Xiao Liu has completely taken control of the pirate spaceship. Now we're changing course. If you want to leave now, I will cooperate and open the hatch for you."

Just a moment, please.

As soon as "ripples" were typed, the cabin door was flung open from outside. A bald, muscular man's subordinate swaggered in, brandishing a beam gun in his hand:

"Our boss has reached an agreement with the Coalition Mech Corps. They will release five hostages first. Which one of you wants to go first"

Everyone glanced at each other, but no one spoke up. Some were afraid of being tricked, while others worried about becoming the target.

"Hee hee! Don't be afraid! We space pirates also value "robbery" justice. If you want to leave first, we'll just take your spatial equipment. The later you leave, the more dangerous it gets. Don't blame me for not warning you!"

The pirate put his greedy face on the table.

Liàn Yī thought for a moment, decided to temporarily hold back, and wait. When there were fewer people left, she would act more conveniently.

As expected, when the pirates arrived, five people immediately stepped forward, handed over their spatial cords, and were taken away.

"Xiao Liu, make sure they leave safely."

"Received."

Inside the cabin, there was a heavy silence. Everyone hoped those trapped would be rescued safely and prayed that they themselves wouldn't have any problems when it was their turn.

Pomp's mecha squad has received the first life capsule and immediately reported to the captain after confirming the hostage's safety.

"Captain, there are five hostages inside. I've checked their identities and they're all clear."

"Okay, arrange for the hostages to be returned to the spacecraft."

"Yes!"

"Captain, look! There's a pirate ship!"

At this time, another teammate shouted in the public channel.

All members heard it, they watched the black and red pirate ship slowly adjusting its direction before them, then slowly flying towards their location.

"Attention all, maintain formation and fly backwards."

Pang Mo unconsciously ordered.

Yes, Captain!

The mecha unit retreated as a whole, allowing the pirate ship to miss the critical time window for discovering the problem.

At this time, the second wave of five hostages were also successfully received by the mecha unit.

The mecha troops watched in eerie silence as the pirate spaceship drew closer to the central star. All personnel were on high alert and prepared for battle.

At this time, half of the hostages aboard the pirate ship had already been taken away. There were still fifty left. Xiao Liu reminded:

Ripples, please prepare for battle. In half an hour, the Star Pirates will be able to see with their own eyes that they are flying towards the Central Star.

I know!

After making a sound, ripples stood up. Under the gazes of her companions, she clapped on the hatch door.

"What are you doing Are you looking for death It's not your turn yet!"

A pirate, opening the hatch, roared.

"No, it's my turn!"an knew his daughter-in-law was perceptive, so he immediately comforted her.Li Juan was just about to ask a couple more questions when there was a knock on the door, followed by her mother-in-law's vo...
