It must be admitted that the asteroid belt is indeed very chaotic, but at the same time, there are really very few heinous cases.
Firstly, it is a prosperous star field after all, and secondly, although it is terrible here, the order is maintained by several major forces.
In the vastness of space, robbery cases are not uncommon, but it is indeed rare for a successful robbery to be followed by murder.
However, Qu Jianlei and Xiaohu did not respond and chose to continue running away.
But unfortunately, it was useless. The two battleships and six attack ships on the opposite side were pressing and squeezing bit by bit.
Those assault ships have already launched an attack, but the intensity is not very high.
The two merchant ships also started to attack, but with proper control of intensity, there was absolutely no possibility of destroying each other.
They didn't think about destroying each other - if one ship was destroyed, how much would be left to grab?
The attacks of these ships are just to force the opponent to move in a certain direction, just like a seasoned shepherd dog herding sheep.
It must be admitted that their cooperation was quite skillful, and they drove each other's starship in the designated direction without even realizing it.
This kind of exquisite coordination cannot be achieved by ordinary soldiers except for elite teams in the military, let alone shepherd dogs.
So practice makes perfect. If you haven't worked together three or five times to rob, you won't be able to develop this kind of tacit understanding.
After being attacked, the shabby merchant ship fleeing in front also started to fight back, but again, they did not dare to use too much intensity.
This truth is obvious and no one will be surprised.
The attackers are showing mercy, but the hunted target really dares to fight back forcefully. If damage is caused, can he afford the price?
The final result may be that the entire crew of the merchant ship will be killed. At this time, do you still need to bet that the other party is kind enough?
The hunted reacted in a panic, feeling that they had not received sufficient training and lacked actual combat experience.
Therefore, it is not too surprising to accidentally fire some harmless tracer bullets.
For the robber, such a timid counterattack was completely expected.
The losses suffered by our side are almost minimal, and so far, the battle plan does not seem to need to be changed.
But the third butcher kept muttering, "Hao, No. 2 was shot again, pity my energy block...".
The cook ignored him. That's the bad thing about cooperation. Everyone likes to emphasize their own losses.
But please be clear, the final division of the spoils will depend on performance and whose attack is more effective, it has nothing to do with cost!
After the 50,000-kilometer encirclement was formed, two attack ships flew out from her merchant ships, assault-type ones.
The Cook's armed merchant ship is smaller than the Three Butchers' space carrier, but compared with ordinary armed merchant ships, it is still a size larger.
This merchant ship has thick armor, powerful weapons, and many weapons, so the space inside the ship is not large and the cargo capacity is not much.
It is really not easy to make up the space for two assault ships. But the three butchers said again, "You actually got two attack ships, and you only use them now... It's too much."
!」
Do you have the final say whether it's too much or not? The cook snorted coldly.
But in order to ensure that there would be no disputes in the process of dividing the spoils, she still replied, "Assault type, crispy!"
Crispy attack ships are best used in the final attack to completely disintegrate the opponent's close defense.
The Third Butcher also knew very well that the other party had some selfish motives, but the reasons were defensible.
So he had no choice but to laugh and say, "You are too careful. Look, isn't this a slap in the face of you again?"
"But it's useless, it's just tracer bullets... There are really a bunch of rookies on the opposite side." The cook didn't tolerate him at all, "A bunch of rookies, right? Who was so scared just now that they didn't dare to attack the ship?
Woolen cloth?"
The third butcher was unhappy, "Am I afraid? I'm just being cautious. You come out to take the job...don't you consider the cost?"
Just when the robbers thought they were about to succeed, Qu Jianlei and Xiao Hu were analyzing.
"I'll confirm again, there are still several independent combat bodies that you have not successfully invaded...including those that have not been awakened."
Xiaohu replied, "Two armed merchant ships, including an aerospace carrier, have successfully invaded."
"Six assault ships, including three backup assault ships on the mother ship, have also successfully invaded."
"Two assault ships, one has completed 90% of the invasion."
"The invasion level of the other ship is only 54%. It will take about ten seconds to completely control it."
Qu Jianlei frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Is there anything else missing?"
"It's gone now," Xiaohu answered very simply, "Boss, I'm just waiting for you to sound the clarion call for counterattack."
"Don't make trouble," Qu Jianlei actually likes to listen to other people's flattery, but this thing can't be taken advantage of.
"Be cautious and take the initiative to explore the surrounding area for 500,000 kilometers to see if there are any other ships."
The perception of this distance is the limit of the empire's current technology.
It's not impossible to sense something half a million kilometers away, but it can only be sensed - a battle broke out there.
As long as the current information is not observed or captured, it doesn't matter.
Any information has timeliness, and any behavior that ignores timeliness and talks about information is just playing tricks on the exiles.
However, actively detecting an object 500,000 kilometers away will significantly increase the consumption of energy blocks and reduce the life of the equipment.
And this kind of behavior in space itself means very aggressive. If the starship is just worried about being harmed by foreign objects, just turn on passive sensing.
Xiaohu said, "Seven hundred thousand kilometers away, there are two starships forming a team. They seem to be passing by."
"Then wait a minute." Qu Jianlei is not so mad as to kill the bystanders, "How long can we hold on?"
"If you keep pushing forward, you can still hold on for about ten minutes," Xiaohu gave a precise answer.
"Their encirclement has formed, but only to the side and behind. We can keep running forward."
This is nonsense - as long as I run fast, no one can surround me.
Merchant Ship 8384 has been fully modified. As long as they are willing to run, these guys behind them may not be able to catch up.
Qu Jianlei pondered for a moment and said, "Turn on the normal top load mode and try to last ten minutes."
The normal state is different from the accelerated state before the jump. Now that you are in a battle, the jump is basically equivalent to seeking death.
However, the top load is very harmful to the engine and cannot be used for a long time.
Merchant ship 8384 turned on its top load and was immediately discovered by the cook and the three butchers. "You still want to run away now? It's too late!"
In addition to the attack ships, two armed merchant ships also began to accelerate, and they were actually faster than the fleeing merchant ships.
Qu Jianlei noticed this scene and smacked his lips helplessly, "Okay, I have something to do again. I have to rebuild the engine later."
Both of his battleships have undergone considerable changes, but the drive system has only been slightly optimized.
However, the two merchant ships in pursuit had extremely superior driving performance and were obviously specially modified.
This is the helplessness of being far away from mainstream society.
Qu Jianlei could only rub components by hand, but the other party was able to use the equipment and experience of industrialized society to make targeted changes.
He had not thought about modifying the power system before, because it was quite difficult, the materials were hard to find, and the cost was high.
In his opinion, it is basically enough to ensure that the merchant ship can drive well. Anyway, in space, he is not afraid of encountering enemies, and he can still fight briefly in person when he is anxious.
But now the two merchant ships on the opposite side reminded him: in regular battles and when chasing and escaping, speed is still very important.
However, it is very helpless that this cannot be solved in the short term.
Question. He sighed, "Why do you feel like there are more and more things happening?"
Xiaohu said disapprovingly, "Just go back and dismantle their power system and study it."
Qu Jianlei shook his head, "It's not easy to match. I guess it can't be used immediately. The materials are also a big problem."
Three minutes later, the red light of the power system started flashing faster and faster.
"Slow down," Qu Jianlei sighed. If he didn't slow down, the engine would malfunction.
Seeing that the two merchant ships behind him were still accelerating, he curled his lips dejectedly and said, "Sure enough, industrialization is the way to go."
"I can't care so much anymore, let's do it."
The next moment, an attack ship exclaimed, "Hey, this power... why did it stall?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a series of exclamations rang out from the public channels.
"Oops," the cook said with unconcealable horror on her cold face, "Quickly get out of the battle."
"Boss, the control system is malfunctioning," someone shouted in panic, "70% of the time it may be a data attack!"
"I'm stupid..." the cook couldn't help but scolded, "I knew this piece of shit was not authentic."
"But I'm surprised. The protective shield is so good, how can it be attacked by data?"
"Boss," a star thief exclaimed again, referring to the protective shield. "The protective strength is declining sharply."
"Cook!" the third butcher's voice came out, sounding very angry. "You're fucking tricking me. We're not done yet. The labor and management have to take the first step."
"Huh," the cook snorted coldly, "take a step first, can you run away?"
"The fire control system is out of order," someone yelled again, "I can't even control it manually!"
The muscles on the cook's face kept beating, "Where's the attack ship? Is it the same?"
"The two attack ships have lost contact," someone answered loudly, "Failed to activate backup power!"
"I'm a fool," the cook gritted her teeth, froze for about three seconds, and said coldly, "Send the surrender signal."
As expected of a decisive and decisive bandit, he realized that he had hit the wrong target and made the decision to surrender simply.
However, what she got was extremely bad news, "Boss, the lights, the lighting control system...has also failed!"
"Boss, that ship 8384 has turned back!"
The cook's face turned white in an instant, "What did we provoke this time?"
