After moving his hands and feet for a while, Long Jiu returned to the aircraft. As for the pile of scrap metal floating in space outside, Long Jiu had no sense of ethics and wanted to help deal with it.
The aircraft restarted, and Long Eleven once again replaced the aircraft's system and took over the control authority of the aircraft.
As the aircraft bypassed the pile of junk and continued toward the jump point, Long Jiu asked, "Are those guys from Barney just now?"
Long Shiyi groaned: "Yes, the Bani people are originally a group of interstellar bandits, and the surrounding small planets have been plagued by them. Any starship passing by the Bani star will be destroyed as long as it does not pay them a toll." They plucked their feathers. 』
Long Jiu's eyebrows were raised high, and she asked with a bad look: "Then why didn't you remind me of this before?"
Long Shiyi immediately got stuck. Of course, this cheater would not say that he was just afraid of chaos in the world and wanted to watch the fun, and quickly found a reason for himself.
"It's all going to be a fight anyway. Could it be that after reminding you, the master is willing to pay the toll for them honestly?" 』
The reason is very strong, and it sounds quite similar.
Long Jiu sneered, and immediately labeled Long Shiyi, a little mentally retarded person, as a 'cheat' in his heart.
Whether she is willing to pay tolls honestly is one thing, but the mentally retarded person does not take the initiative to remind people is another thing.
Long Jiu stared at the main disk in the card slot with unkind eyes, and said coldly in a cold tone: "There will be no next time, otherwise I will ask you to return to the factory for rebuilding."
Long Shiyi heard the seriousness in her words, and was so frightened that his core data trembled three times. He didn't dare to be naughty anymore, and changed his mechanical voice to a chirping child's voice, and said honestly and well-behaved : "Good master." 』
As soon as the chirping childish voice appeared, Long Jiu's eyes immediately narrowed, a dark light flashed under his eyes, and he immediately ordered: "From now on, you will use this voice, and you are not allowed to change it again."
Long Shiyi, who originally just wanted to be cute and cute, said: "."
You have to admit your own death even if you cry!
With tears in his eyes, Long Shiyi changed the settings of his voice. From now on, he could only use this squeaking voice.
Because of its altered voice, Long Shiyi, who was originally a talkative man, actually stopped talking. He would never speak again unless necessary, which finally gave Long Jiu a moment of peace.
Seeing that the jump point was approaching, Long Shiyi, who had been mute for a while, had to speak again: "The jump point is about to arrive, do you need to prepare for the jump?" 』
As soon as he opened his mouth, the squealing voice immediately echoed in the control cabin, making Delong Shiyi extremely ashamed.
Long Jiu was quite satisfied with its current voice, and asked in a pleasant tone: "Check the current coordinates of the target, and then jump there."
Long Shiyi silently called up the location of the mission target, without any further instructions from Long Jiu. After locking the position, he immediately began to prepare for the jump.
"Leap in three seconds——"
"three. 』
"two. 』
"one. 』
As soon as the countdown sounded, the aircraft rushed into the jump point, and violent shaking occurred in the control cabin.
But the shaking only lasted two or three times. When it calmed down again, the aircraft appeared out of thin air in another star field.
Long Jiu looked at the unfamiliar star field outside the porthole window, but asked: "How far is it from the target now?"
Long Shiyi quickly calculated the distance between them and the target, and replied: "If the target no longer jumps, the estimated time to catch up at our top speed is thirty-eight minutes and fifty-three seconds." 』
Long Jiu ignored its calculations that were accurate to the second and asked: "Can you predict their final destination from their route?"
"able! 』
As the highest-level intelligent system today, Long Eleven's computing power is very powerful. Therefore, after Long Eleven responded that it was possible, dense data immediately appeared on the light screen.
Long Jiu couldn't understand what those data meant, and because they were refreshed too quickly, her eyes still hurt after staring at them for a long time, so she only looked at them for a short while and then silently looked away.
Long Shiyi calculated the final result in the huge database. After hearing a ding, its chirping voice sounded: "According to the target's driving route, 92% of their final destination is The planet Ursa is one light-year away from us. 』
Long Jiu: "Planet Ursa?"
Long Shiyi immediately started popular science and said: "The star field we are in now is the Lyra Galaxy, and Ersa is one of the six planets of the Lyra Galaxy and one of the main stars of the Lyra Galaxy." Although Ursa is one of the main stars of the Lyra Galaxy, it is the most famous evil planet in the Lyra Galaxy. The Ursa people are bloodthirsty and cruel. Among the alien groups that are anti-human, the Ursa people can rank second. Within the top ten. 』
Long Jiu listened to its popular science and said in surprise: "Since the Ursa people are so disgusted with humans, how dare those Benjiko people go to the Ursa planet? Aren't they worried that they will be eaten by those Ursa people as soon as they go there?"
Long Shiyi frowned and replied: "Ersa people don't eat humans, but they are very bloodthirsty. For them, humans are the lowest creatures, probably similar to livestock." Interstellar black merchants dare to go to Ursa mostly because they are serving the Ursa people, such as providing them with human sacrifices. 』
Long Jiu heard a new word and asked doubtfully: "Human animal?"
"Yes, humans and animals. ” Long Shiyi further explained: “Human sacrifices are very popular on the planet Ersa. Owning human sacrifices is a symbol of status on the planet Ersa. The more human sacrifices you have, the higher your status. Those Ursa people would bid for human sacrifices from black traders at high prices, then brand these human sacrifices with their own exclusive marks, and then put specially made iron chains around the necks of the human sacrifices, just like walking a dog. Go out and show everyone. 』
Long Jiu finally understood what human sacrifice meant, but his face became gloomy because of it.
Slaves in ancient times were nothing more than this.
She hadn't seen anything so disgusting in years.
But what disgusted Long Jiu the most was not the Ersa people, but Benjiko's group of black businessmen.
They are obviously human beings, but they are so cruel to their own compatriots. What the people in Benjiko did is truly disgusting.
The more than a thousand hostages taken away by Benjiko should be the human sacrifices he planned to take to Ursa and sell them to the Ursa people.
Thinking of this, Long Jiu said with a gloomy expression: "Long Shiyi, chase after them at full speed and intercept them before they arrive at Planet Ursa."
Long Shiyi naturally knew the purpose of Long Jiu chasing here. He immediately increased the speed of the aircraft to the fastest and said seriously: "Master, I can find several secret jump points. If we jump all the way there, we can shorten the time." During the pursuit, the few hidden jump points were basically in a state of being scrapped, so I couldn't guarantee whether our aircraft would fall apart after a few jumps. 』
There are too many potential safety hazards in jump points that are about to be scrapped, so few normal people dare to use them unless they have to.
Long Shiyi was a little uneasy when he proposed this matter, but as Long Jiu's exclusive mecha system, it naturally knew Long Jiu's physical and mental strength, and also knew Long Jiu's abilities. Therefore, Long Shiyi Although Yi was nervous, he still said it truthfully.
It felt that its owner would not notice the hidden danger.
really
After listening to Long Shiyi's words, Long Jiu said without any hesitation: "Leap over."
Long Shiyi changed his flight route instantly and said, "Okay." 』
From a certain point of view, Long Eleven is indeed Long Jiu's exclusive system. Its restless and courageous approach to death is completely in line with Long Jiu.
Frequent jumps will be a little overwhelming even for people with strong physiques, not to mention that the jump point where the jump is performed is about to be scrapped and is in an unstable state.
If Long Jiu hadn't possessed the powerful physique of the dragon clan, she would have been able to spit out her bile after this leap.
But Long Jiu was able to carry it, but her aircraft couldn't.
After completing several jumps, Long Shiyi's squeaking voice also quickly reported the extent of damage to the aircraft.
"Two left wing engines were damaged, one tail thruster was damaged, and one lift control frame was lost."
Following Long Shiyi's report, Long Jiu frowned, "Is it possible to repair the damaged engine on the left wing and the damaged propeller at the tail?"
Long Shiyi: "I have tried to repair it, but it failed. 』
Long Jiu: "."
Long Jiu: "Then don't worry. How far are we from the target? As long as the aircraft can still be used."
Among a lot of bad news, Long Shiyi finally gave a piece of good news: "Master, we have arrived in front of the target. Our current location is exactly the target's tight route to Planet Ursa. You can tell just by looking at the tracking screen. 』
After Long Shiyi finished speaking, he immediately called up the tracking screen, and saw that the small red dot on the light screen representing the Benjiko merchant ship was indeed heading straight in their direction.
Long Shiyi chuckled twice: "When we just came out of the jump point, I opened the invisibility barrier. At this moment, the black merchant's merchant ship is coming straight towards us." In five minutes at most, their merchant ship will appear in front of us. 』
Merchant ships are also equipped with thermal sensors. Even if their aircraft are currently in stealth mode, they may still be detected by the thermal sensors.
Long Jiu didn't intend to use this aircraft that was about to fall apart to go head-to-head with a large merchant ship, and she couldn't beat it. Even though it was just a merchant ship, the weapons and equipment on it were definitely no less than that of a small warship.
If Benjiko didn't have enough weapons and equipment, he wouldn't dare to drag so many valuable goods to the outer stars.
Long Jiu pulled out the main disk of Long Eleven, returned the control of the aircraft to the aircraft system, then opened the outer hatch again, and jumped out again.
The pink mecha was released by her again. After she was ready for everything, she turned on the stealth state of the mecha.
The stealth status of the 6S-class mecha is not comparable to that of aircraft, and even the most advanced thermal sensors cannot detect it.
Long Jiu stayed quietly in the mecha, waiting for Benjiko's merchant ship to appear.
Not long after, a large merchant ship suddenly appeared from behind a nebula.
Long Jiu looked at the huge totem on the merchant ship, and a stern sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
She was not prepared to follow Ben Jieke's group to pay homage first and then attack. After the target appeared, she ordered Long Shiyi to start combat mode.
Looking at the merchant ship getting closer and closer, Long Jiu removed the stealth state of the mecha, then stretched his arms back and took out a cannon barrel about three meters long from behind.
A pink mecha, carrying a cannon barrel on its shoulder, suddenly appeared in front of the merchant ship, causing everyone on the merchant ship to change their colors in horror.
No one knows how this mecha appeared, and no one knows why this mecha can appear in space safe and sound.
Everything that happened in front of them was so incredible to Benjiko and everyone on the merchant ship.
But the owner of the mecha didn't seem to want to talk nonsense to them, because the cannon barrel carried on the mecha's shoulders was already accumulating energy.
Benjiko's expression changed drastically, he cursed under his breath and said, "It's a shaped cannon!"
Before Benjiko finished speaking, a flash of light was seen on the fully charged cannon barrel, and then it hit their merchant ship with a bang, and the merchant ship's system suddenly sounded a series of sharp alarms.
The merchant ship was in chaos, but the pink mecha directly in front rushed forward and bombarded them again at close range.
There were constant roars and explosions. Benjiko kicked away his subordinates who fell to his feet, and roared: "What the hell are you doing to eat?! Fight back, pick up your weapons and go back! There are only two people on the other side. It’s just a mecha, what are you afraid of? What is it called?!”
Although they were caught off guard, they were still people who had been licking blood all year round. After being yelled at by Benjiko, these people gradually calmed down.
Their counterattack was quick, and all the weapon ports on the merchant ship were activated and locked onto the pink mecha outside.
The weapon mouth erupted with astonishing heat, and then a salvo of gunfire was fired.
Long Jiu looked at the cannonballs flying from the opposite side, calmly operated the mecha, and gave the command: "Activate the photon shield."
A huge light shield was erected in front of the mecha, resisting all attacks. At the same time, the mecha pushed the light shield forward with one hand, and held one end of the cannon barrel with the other hand, raising it high.
As it raised the cannon barrel, the cannon barrel made a sudden change, turning into a giant lightsaber more than three meters long.
The mecha held the giant sword upside down, pushed the light shield with one hand and flew over the merchant ship, then raised its sword and struck hard.
The merchant ship burst into flames and smoke like it was being destroyed, and most of the bow of the ship was cut off by this sword.
Then another sword swept across, and most of the weapon ports on the merchant ship were destroyed.
Facing the 6S-class combat mechs, this merchant ship with ample weapons was as invulnerable as a toy. If Long Jiu hadn't been worried about the more than a thousand hostages on board, she might have blown up the merchant ship directly.
But even though she had restrained herself, Benjiko and others on the merchant ship were frightened by her. In a panic, many escape hatches popped up on the merchant ship.
Seeing those escape hatches scurrying around like dandelion seeds, Long Jiu said coldly: "Long Shiyi, catch them all, and don't let any of them escape."
Long Shiyi responded, and the mecha popped out several hooks with its right hand, and a huge fishing net with its left hand, and then captured all the escape cabins that were running around.
After catching all the escape hatches, Long Jiu immediately turned on the scanning system and "scanned the merchant ships."
The mecha's eyes emitted scanning red light, scanning the merchant ship inside and out, and finally found signs of life in the merchant ship's cargo hold.
Long Jiu handed over the control authority of the mecha to Long Shiyi, but she naturally opened the hatch and jumped out.
When she landed lightly on the merchant ship, Long Jiu ignored the thick smoke and fire around her and headed straight for the cargo hold at the bottom of the merchant ship.
The cargo hold is full of freezers, stacked neatly like coffins.
Long Jiu opened the nearest freezer and looked inside. There were also neatly arranged pieces of frozen meat. The things she scanned that showed signs of life were obviously not frozen meat that had been frozen for who knows how many years. .
Long Jiu narrowed her eyes, with a thoughtful look on her face. Then she reached out to lift off the layer of frozen meat, and knocked on the bottom of the freezer. Her eyes moved slightly.
There is a mezzanine under this freezer!
Long Jiu seemed to understand something. She immediately groped in private at the bottom of the freezer, and finally found a small raised button in a small corner.
She pressed the button gently, and the bottom of the freezer suddenly opened the splint, revealing the person hidden inside.
There is actually a sleeping cabin under this freezer!
No wonder the Security Fortress failed to detect the problem here, because the dormant cabin can block all detections, and the purpose of the dormant cabin can only be discussed hundreds of years ago.
It is said that hundreds of years ago, human civilization had not reached the height it is now, and many terminal diseases were still in a difficult situation without a cure. At that time, humans developed this kind of hibernation chamber, and its purpose was to treat incurable diseases. The treated terminally ill patients are put into a dormant chamber and fall asleep, and then when a cure for the terminally ill is developed in the future, these terminally ill patients will be awakened from their dormancy.
Today's humans have long been able to cure all terminal diseases, so the existence of hibernation chambers has become less important.
Hundreds of years have passed, and many people have forgotten about the dormant cabin, so Benjiko came up with such a way to stow away people.
Long Jiu did not wake up the hostages in the dormant cabin, because the dormant cabin had its own oxygen supply system, so it was a good thing for the hostages to stay in the dormant cabin temporarily. After all, the merchant ship was almost scrapped, Long Jiu was sure She couldn't drive it back, so she had to tow it away manually.
More than a thousand hostages were all sleeping under these freezers. After finding them, Long Jiu had completed his mission.
Long Jiu didn't waste any time, and immediately walked out of the cargo hold, returned to his mecha, and then asked: "Long Shiyi, the merchant ship below is basically scrapped. Can you tow the merchant ship back?"
Long Shiyi's chirping voice changed the tone: "Where are you dragging me back to?" 』
Long Jiu: "The safe fortress of the sixth galaxy."
A burst of turbulent sound flashed through, and Long Shiyi wailed: "Do you want me to die?" ! 』
Even though it is a 6S-class mecha, it really does not have the ability to drag such a large merchant ship over the mountains and ridges back to the safe fortress of the sixth galaxy! ! ! !
Not to mention having to go through a space wormhole to go back, even jumping can kill it! ! !
Long Jiu probably also felt that she was a bit too strong to control. She sighed and said: "That's okay, just bring those escape hatches."
Long Shiyi turned into a cute little girl again: "What about the merchant ship down there?" 』
Long Jiu moved his neck and said, "I'll do it."
Long Shiyi: "! ! ! ! 』
