"What should I do?" Looking at the densely packed Star Alliance battleships outside the porthole, Lu Yuan asked Miranda in a low voice.
With the support of YF-533, the two people successfully left the Tuofan satellite from the other side of the planet. With the interference from the thick layer of acid rain on the satellite, Lu Yuan and the others even eluded Star Alliance's radar and were not discovered until they entered the channel.
Here I have to talk about the issue of waterways. Although the universe is very empty, it is accessible everywhere. But when the sailing speed reaches above the speed of light, the situation becomes different. It's like a car with a speed of 60 kilometers per hour can have fun on the prairie, but an F1 car with a speed of 300 kilometers per hour can only run on a dedicated track. Therefore, in order to increase the speed of navigation, the best way is to clean up meteorites, dust, debris, etc., and open up a "race track" in the universe. This is the waterway.
Each colony is responsible for maintaining shipping lanes near the planet. This maintenance usually relies on large astronomical space stations, armed patrol ships and supercomputers. Astronomical space stations and computers combine to track billions of celestial objects in real time—from rocks as small as ten centimeters in diameter to huge comets that break into galaxies—almost everything. To achieve this goal, millions of detectors are usually set up near the waterway. Of course, the instrument itself is also one of the targets to be tracked.
Once it is calculated that a target's trajectory is about to intersect with the waterway, armed merchant ships will come forward to clear it.
Planetary shipping lanes are like this, while public shipping lanes are left to patrol fleets. It is because of the maintenance of waterways. Most patrol fleets have received donations from beneficiary planets. Therefore, in fact, the patrol fleet has gradually separated from the Star Alliance and turned into a "public security local fleet" that maintains local airspace. A tendency towards corporatization has begun to emerge. Therefore, for the Star Alliance Navy's combat mission this time, the squadron is responsible for the battle, while the patrol fleet is used to block nearby waterways.
The Star Alliance has completely sealed off this area, so after the "Race Walker" was discovered. Soon, he was helplessly forced to stop by two frigates, and then the situation became the current situation.
"Navy Anti-Smuggling, please go to the designated place to park. We will release it after inspection. Navy Anti-Smuggling..." was broadcast repeatedly on the channel, and of course, the frigate's rotating muzzle always reminded the cargo ship. "It's a patrol fleet... I hope they didn't recognize this ship." Lu Yuan said speechlessly. The dark history between him and the Star Alliance patrol fleet...it can't be cleared up despite all efforts.
"What to do? Of course, surrender obediently!" Miranda said easily. "I have wiped the data in the pirate base. They don't know we have been there. Now the Star Alliance just wants to find an excuse to temporarily block the news around here.
You are a civilian ship. Even if you have done something illegal, that is still within the scope of the patrol fleet's responsibilities and has nothing to do with the naval squadron. When they are performing important tasks, they definitely have no intention of catching small fish like you. "
Lu Yuan nodded, agreeing with Miranda. He operated the console. The navigation lights on the outside of the "Race Walker" outlining the boundary line turned green and flashed continuously, signaling "You are the boss".
"Your goods...will there be no problems?" Lu Yuan asked, shaking his head in the direction of the back warehouse. Things shipped from the pirate base are definitely not so innocent.
Neither of them expected it. When they followed the pirate leader underground, the remaining pirates actually loaded the goods Miranda wanted onto the ship. This solved a big trouble for them when the "Kashan" crashed down towards the pirate base. YF-533 cleverly drove the ship to avoid it, allowing them to gain both wealth and wealth. Speaking of which, they actually owe the pirates a big favor...
"It's just some cultural relics." Miranda said vaguely, then changed the subject. In fact, she hoped that Lu Yuan would stop here. The hired adventure captain turned out to be Mu Xing's younger brother (so he couldn't be sacrificed casually, which was already a big mistake. Therefore, Miranda really didn't want Lu Yuan to continue to be involved in this matter.
In just a few days of getting along, although the two often quarreled, from the bottom of her heart, she still had a good impression of Lu Yuan, her quasi-brother. In her mind, she and Mu Xing worked so hard as sisters just so that Oriana and Lu Yuan could live freely. The places they should go are bars where young people gather, or the Great Prothean Museum, rather than participating in dangerous espionage operations.
According to the scattered information she knows, what follows will involve a mysterious and evil ancient race. They have been hiding behind the Milky Way for thousands of years. Once they go against this race, the danger is simply different from escaping from the pirate base! What's more... Miranda touched her multi-purpose tool lightly. The most important "cargo" was actually here, not in the warehouse at the back.
As long as she can escape smoothly, most of the mission has been completed - because in her hands, there is conclusive evidence that proves the existence of that mysterious race!
*****
The "Race Walker" was "escorted" by two frigates and arrived at the synchronous orbit of the third planet of Tovan. There are already hundreds of various spaceships, yachts and shuttles parked here, and it seems that there are people of every race. We often don’t see anyone on this channel for several hours, but we didn’t expect so many people to show up when we were intercepted! It seems that everyone is not taking the usual path...
Perhaps because Lu Yuan came from the Star Alliance, the "Race Walker" did not face any difficulties. It was just driven to the place where the cargo ship was parked for convenience. The Racer could at least break away from the escort and find a place on its own.
The location here is rather strange. It happens to be on both sides of Tofan Star from the main battlefield. The huge gaseous planet blocks each other's view. Of course, there is another hidden factor, which is that when a Lidar that does not know the battlefield situation scans, it will easily find that "a large number of warships" are parked here! If the Batarian fleet comes to support them, the two fleets that "are at odds with each other" will cause them great pain.
The hundreds of spaceships that have been parked here have not realized that they have become the legendary "false target". The next moment, Batarian warships may fall from the sky! They were still complaining about this sudden "unfortunate inspection". Some were talking nonsense on the communication channel, some were trying to persuade the patrol team to let them go, and of course some were quarreling and trying to make friends.
"I don't know whether to live or die!" Lu Yuan frowned and commented, but in fact, in his heart, he was dissatisfied with the actions of the Star Alliance Navy. Actually using civilians as a cover... But at this time, Lu Yuan didn't know that not only the Star Alliance Navy, but also Cerberus and Dawn had a hand in it...
Lu Yuan randomly adjusted the channel, trying to find some different sounds. But he suddenly stopped the FM movement in his hand, and Miranda also looked over immediately. Both of them heard the voice of an immature little girl calling for help among the noise!
"Help!" The little girl shouted in the channel with a strange tone and a hoarse voice. "Is there anyone?! Someone help me! My mom got shot, we need antibiotics, everything... Is there anyone here?! Please!"
But no matter how she shouted, the people in the channel were still arguing loudly or making dirty jokes. No one cared, no one paid attention... The little girl's voice was drowned in the noise, and she could only scream heartbreakingly...
"A Yuan..." Miranda noticed that when Lu Yuan heard that voice, his face suddenly turned livid, and the veins on his forehead popped out! Obviously very angry!
"Shut up!" Lu Yuan turned up the frequency of the Racer to the maximum, then activated the "Lion's Roar" and roared wildly at the channel! This loud sound resounded throughout the Internet. Countless people's channels were automatically closed due to overload. Many people were almost deafened! The channel was immediately cleared!
"Little girl... that quarian who called for help! Tell me your location..." Yes, Lu Yuan could tell directly from the strange accent that it was a quarian's voice. This reminded him of the Quarian shuttle that passed him when the Racer was about to land at the pirate base. It's just that there are hundreds of boats of various sizes parked here, so it's not easy to find them all at once.
He also knew why those people refused to save them - because of the big mistake the Quarians made in creating the "geth", as well as the long-term anti-Qurian propaganda of certain races, and of course the problems of the Quarians themselves - —Quarians are always marketed as thieves and beggars. They always start their wanderings with nothing, and then return home with a lot of money at the end of their wanderings. This tradition seems to further confirm this view.
But Lu Yuan once had a quarian friend, and he would never see it that way!
But before he finished speaking, he was immediately interrupted by a loud curse on the channel! "How dare that bastard roar..."
Before the other party finished speaking, Lu Yuan instantly located his position, and then a heavy machine gun stretched out from under the belly of the "Race Walker". "Da da da!" A line of fire was drawn! Sparks fly! Suddenly the channel went silent again!
Everyone looked at the attack outside the window in shock - although the heavy machine gun was almost useless against the battleship, and could not even penetrate the shell of the shield - the blue flash that was aroused still undoubtedly showed " The strength of the Race Walker!
"You...you..." The man was obviously shocked! But this man still didn't want to shut up, "Hahaha, heavy machine guns are nothing! If you can, you can use cannons to blast me..."
He still couldn't finish what he said this time - because everyone saw that the red and black cargo ship suddenly jumped on the spot, crossed four or five ships, and hit another cargo ship hard. The location of the cockpit! Seeing that the spaceship that was riding underneath completely collapsed!
"Ah——!" Following the scream that suddenly stopped, there was deathly silence in the channel!
Then Lu Yuan's voice asked coldly in the channel, "Who else?!"
