"We took the order from Blue Ants to transport supplies to the mining station here and transported the precious minerals in the warehouse. It was originally done four months later, but the senior executives of Blue Ants seemed to hear some news and were anxious to take over this batch of precious minerals."
Listening to Rosen telling the matter out like a bean, Talos nodded slightly.
"So, do you know where the Blue Ant's old nest is?"
"Well--"
Seeing that Rosen hesitated again, Talos waved.
"Sablin, cut his left ear and add wine to me."
"yes."
Hearing the sound of slashing swords and footsteps coming from behind, Rosen quickly covered his ears with his hands and said loudly:
"I know! I know!"
"Can we take us there?"
"No, no, no! I have been unhappy with those thieves, vampires, and bastards! They are a shame to the empire! Just looking at them can defile my pure soul who believes in the God Emperor-"
With a thud, the dagger was inserted into Luosen's knee an inch, which scared him quickly backed up.
"Shut up."
Talos stood up from the throne and looked at Sabrin and others.
"Since you have done it, you can do it to the end, and you don't need to keep this blue ant."
The Blue Ant is headquartered in the Engels Galaxy, a small galaxy with only four or five planets. Its stars are dimmer than most stars, so it looks very inconspicuous even on the star chart.
But the star pirates chose this place not just because of concealment. The Engels Galaxy is located in the center of the Storm Star Domain, with convenient transportation, which is very conducive to their transportation of minerals. It is also close to the galaxy stationed by Space Marines, and is safer in all aspects.
Therefore, after selecting the place, the star pirates spent decades to build a huge space station in the galaxy.
This includes microgravity factories, trading areas, soilless planting areas, storage areas, trading areas, residential areas, etc., and there are hundreds of thousands of people living in it, which is almost a space city.
Every once in a while, the merchant fleet belonging to Blue Ants will leave here with refined precious metals and go to the black markets in various star areas for trading.
The Blue Ant's fleet not only includes merchant ships, but also several small frigates, which are more than enough to deal with ordinary pirates. However, in order to prevent provoking the Ministry of Justice or other law enforcement agencies of the Empire, the Blue Ant's armed fleet rarely leaves its post and will only be dispatched with the merchant fleet.
But no one expected that these frigates would be controlled one by one before the alarm sounded.
Or, no one can tell what happened in the first hour.
So when the defense array fails, all detectors fail, and the entire space station becomes deaf and blind in an instant and has no ability to resist, everyone only thinks it is a failure.
"The external scanner shows that it works fine, but we detected some unknown signal, a bit like an electromagnetic storm, adults."
"Please repeat."
In the communicator, a voice answered.
Weidev, the chief mechanical priest of Blue Ant Group, took a deep breath, lowered the breathing mask surrounding his face, and repeated his words word by word.
"What a great news, gentlemen."
On the other end of the communicator, the CEO of Blue Ant Group made a slightly dissatisfied voice.
"So we are gentlemen now?"
Beside Weidev, his apprentice Ike whispered.
"So I'm assuming that all systems cannot be recovered for the time being, right?"
Even though the frost had condensed inside the helmet, Vegeff still smiled.
"Yes, sir."
He didn't say much about this kind of systemic failures actually require several months to repair.
"Gentlemen, you are the most outstanding mechanics in the group. I hope you can understand that the headquarters cannot afford to be offline even if the system is offline for a day. This will result in a loss of monthly turnover of about 12.3%, which is our responsibility."
"I know, I'll contact-"
Suddenly, the sound broke.
"Gentlemen?"
The CEO's voice rang, but the communicator had fallen on the outer shell of the space station.
"Where are people?"
Ike hit the ground first, and his face slapped hard on the metal, saying nothing, and doing nothing, except blood flowing silently.
The fighting knife that passed through his head instantly killed him.
Weidev was not dead when he fell down. He stretched out his blood-stained hand to the emergency rune button of his player, but he did not have the strength to press it down. The blood-stained fingers made the surface of the button paint a chaotic pattern.
"Gentlemen?"
The executive asked again.
"police--"
When Vegeff breathed for the last breath in his life, he screamed with all his might, and then he was silent.
In a gorgeous office at the space station, the CEO of the white-haired, dressed in uniform, looked at the Director of the Guards, the former colonel of the Astral Army, and a nobleman from a certain Nest Capital, fiddled with the hem of his robe.
"It seems to be a bit of a disturbance, this is wired communication."
The Director of Guard took a breath and replied indifferently:
"Or what else would it be?"
"I heard someone was screaming, serious."
The Chief of Guard attempted to force himself to smile, but was not completely successful. He was respectful to the elderly. Even though the old man, one of the founders of Blue Ant, had a worse hearing than before, he knew that he had said to the CEO.
"I believe this is a distraction."
The young noble said it again.
“It could be.”
The executive reached out and grabbed his white hair and took a breath.
"If the two gentlemen have not resumed communication in ten minutes, sending a search team will make me feel more comfortable. You hear this noise and screaming, it's too bad..."
"It's not that easy for people with mechanical teaching to have trouble, sir."
"Either life or death, we should find them."
Suddenly, the voice channel flashed again, and the other side seemed to have been adjusted.
"It seems to be a distraction."
The old man said, but his fingers stopped as he reached the dial.
There was a sound at one end of the communicator, but the speaker's voice was not like a human being, too low, too vague, too cold.
"Hide in your nest, mortals, lock your door, hold your family tightly, and wait and hear our roar, and we come for you tonight."

The street was in chaos, and Yaen Coy, the middle manager of Blue Ants, did not expect this thing to work when he took his pistol. He just thought there was no one on the street, so he planned to go home to find his wife and children.
But he was wrong.
As soon as he went out, he caught a glimpse of the creation, nearly one meter above an ordinary man, wearing armor that seemed to appear in myths.
Under the feet of the thing were three still bleeding human bodies, each of which was broken and unshakable, and the ashes dyed the exposed muscles black.
Yarn raised his pistol at the bravest moment of his life.
Then the warrior suddenly turned, a chain saw stained with blood, and a gorgeous explosive pistol in his hand.
Then, a loud blast burst like thunder.
Yaen felt something hit his abdomen like a truck, and he couldn't even scream, and then the air in his lungs was squeezed out.
Before he even had time to fall down before his abdomen exploded, he was exploded into pieces in just a moment.
He saw stars flashing, buildings shaking, and when his chest fell to the ground, he fell into darkness, the light of life in his eyes disappeared without a trace when his head fell to the ground, and his internal organs were scattered all over the ground.
Until he died, he did not realize when the killer appeared.
