Interstellar: Start as a cleaner.

Chapter 1038 The fun begins
On the Batello armed spaceship of the Federation's Karaya planetary fleet, Chief of Staff Jose was feeling a little curious. The spaceship had been sailing for a week and everyone else on the spaceship felt bored. However, Commander-in-Chief of the Karaya Guard Fleet and Captain of the Batello armed spaceship, His Excellency John Lee, was strolling around with great interest and going back to rest when he was tired.

He is elusive on the battleship. When you are not looking for him, you can't see him. But if you need to find him when there is something, he will appear quickly.

Of course Jose didn't have any doubts, he just felt that it was slightly different. Armed spacecraft were very different from civilian spacecraft. There were many more things added inside the armed spacecraft, so it was natural for the commander and captain to be curious.

After all, as the commander-in-chief, this might be the first time he sailed with the warships under his jurisdiction, and it might also be the last time, because Jose believed that the commander-in-chief would not spend money a second time after spending it once.

Because warship cruising is boring. Even on busy public routes, you can only see a few spaceships in a month. And they can only see each other through radar. In fact, the distance between them may be millions of kilometers.

Jose had no idea that in another star field of the Federation, a fleet was sailing silently.

The Black Skull Pirates are a first-rate force within the Pirate Alliance because they have the Empire behind them.

The mission that the Black Skull Pirates took on this time was not dangerous at all, because the person who issued the mission provided a lot of information support, all the waterway information, including waterway detectors, as well as the patrol routes of various states within the federation and the federal fleet.

The entire fleet of the Black Skull Pirates was moving towards its destination like a series of meteorites.

This time, the Black Skull Pirates are led by their leader and first leader Aaron. Aaron's real name is Lucas. He is a soldier of the Empire and a viscount, disguised in the Black Skull Pirates.

This time, the Black Skull Pirates dispatched a C-class battleship and two D-class battleships, actually for safety reasons.

Theoretically, one battleship can complete the mission, but the Federation is full of warlords. What if you set your sights on someone else's mission reward and someone else sets his sights on your battleship?

Anything could happen in this damn place called the Federation, and it was also the area with the most criminal activities in the entire interstellar space.

The three warships of the Black Skull Pirates are enough to ensure safety. 99.9% of the people on the three warships do not know the destination of this mission, which is also the usual practice of the pirates.

When all pirate groups are on a mission, only when they arrive at the mission location will the pirates know what the mission is.

So most pirates were also in deep sleep, because life on the warship was really boring.

Because the pirate warships were unable to connect to the outside world while on mission, all networks ceased to be used.

Aaron, as the first deputy commander, relied on his own strong strength. In Aaron's opinion, the difficulty of this mission was very low.

The destination is still four days away, and then an ambush will be set up at the destination.

During this time period, there happened to be no other transport ships passing by.

All we know about the robbed spacecraft this time is that it was carrying supplies smuggled from the Alliance, but no one knows what they were.

However, the things the Federation imports from the Alliance are still very valuable. Of course, if they are not valuable, they will be destroyed directly.

Aaron took a look at the condition of the battleship and then became bored.

Four days later, three warships of the Black Skull Pirates arrived at the designated location. The C-class battleship was codenamed Vole, and the two D-class battleships were named Locust and Spider.

The C-class battleship is hidden behind a nearby planet as the flagship. Two D-class battleships are on the move, and the C-class battleship will remain on alert to prevent any accidents.

The three warships communicated over short distances and quickly set up traps. Only then did the islanders on the three warships know the purpose of this mission.

Although the spaceship robbed this time was not converted into an armed spaceship, it had one hundred mecha divisions and one hundred mechas, as well as some fighter jets, unmanned fighter jets, and so on.

This spaceship had no idea what it was smuggling, and it did not request protection from federal warships along the way.

In fact, in the Federation, many people don't trust anyone other than their own people.

Because these federal fleets might be jealous of the smuggled goods, and then pirates will appear out of nowhere.

"Everyone, are you clear about your mission?" Aaron shouted on the communication channel.

"Locust understands."

"Spider understands."

"Begin to be silent!" Aaron, as the first deputy commander of the Black Skeleton Mercenary Group, appears as the chief of staff in the fleet. The commander of the Black Skeleton Mercenary Group will only give commands after the action begins.

The battle plan this time was simple and crude, which was to wait for the target to enter the ambush circle, and then the locusts and spiders would attack instantly.

Aaron never imagined that there was a shabby armed spaceship on his retreat route.

A system failure occurred on the Batello armed spacecraft where Yang Bo was, causing all systems of the spacecraft to shut down for a short period of time.

This was actually an experiment conducted by Yang Bo. He confirmed that he could cause a system failure on this spacecraft at an appropriate time in advance, and then shut down all the systems of the entire spacecraft, so that the spacecraft would be sailing in silence.

"It turned out to be a smuggling spaceship from Troy Company." It was only at this time that Yang Bo learned from Lucas, also known as Aaron, that the smuggling spaceship to be robbed belonged to Troy Company.

In the past, the captain always kept this information, and until the last moment, only the leader of the entire spacecraft knew what the target was.

Because the leaders of these pirate groups have been deceived, pirates are not good people. As long as they can make money, they don’t mind betraying their boss. It’s better to stick with their boss.

Federal Troy Corporation is the 42nd largest company in the Federation, and its main business is mining.

Of course it involves military industry, transportation, security and so on.

It is easy to obtain mining rights in the federal government, but if you want to keep the minerals, you have to rely on your strength. Once they are snatched away by others, you can only admit that you are out of luck.

"It seems that the pirates were hired by Troy Company's rivals, and they got the information so accurately. Tsk tsk." Smuggling is very common in the Federation, but don't get caught.

The main reason is that it is more dangerous to travel in space, but it is safe once you get to the place because they are all local tyrants. If your identity is known outside, there won't be too many people who want to rob you.

"There are still ten days left." Yang Bo disguised himself as Li John and boarded the armed spaceship, bringing his own mecha with him.

Because Yang Bo flew directly to the fleet base at the airport in a mecha, this was also part of the plan.

After the armed spacecraft had problems, the spacecraft's own mecha was affected by the system and could not be used. Only the mecha he brought with him could be used, so he went out to check what was wrong with the spacecraft.

Yang Bo never thought of using armed spaceships to fight against the warships of the Black Skull Pirates. The other side had three warships of authentic bloodlines, and one encounter would be enough to destroy this armed spaceship.

The most important thing is the ownership of the captured warships.

Yang Bo also kept a close eye on the development of things through Aaron's spiritual seeds.

Four days later, a huge transport ship that looked ordinary, 4,500 meters long, 800 meters wide and 600 meters high appeared in the starry sky.

This is Troy's transport ship, this time it is fully loaded with supplies and is returning to the company's headquarters. Troy's ship was carrying rare minerals, which were smuggled directly to customers in the alliance.

Then the exchanged supplies will have to sail for another five days and make a space jump before we can return home.

The people on the Troy Company's spaceship were also bored, because the spaceship was now very safe in this area.

The two states near this area are both very poor and have relatively low military strength.

The crew members were on duty when they should be on duty, and played games when they should be on duty. Of course, in order to avoid exposing their whereabouts, they sailed in silence.

Silent navigation means not actively contacting the outside world and not reporting one's own position.

Spacecraft should also actively send their positions like cargo ships on Earth, so that the agencies of the country that manages the routes can see the speed and direction of the spacecraft, and thus control the speed of other ships in the entire route to avoid accidents.

Spacecraft travel very long distances, and because of different speeds, the time it takes to reach a certain place can vary greatly.

As long as the location is not actively sent, it will be difficult for others to know where the spacecraft is.

However, this spaceship knows the information of other spaceships and will actively maintain a safe distance from them.

"Woooooooooo!" The alarm suddenly sounded on the smuggling spaceship.

"Encountered an unknown attack, and the F-25-306 area was damaged by 90%." The spacecraft's main brain system then reported loudly.

Even if it is a space energy weapon, no radar can detect the enemy first, unless it is a long-range active detector that can give an early warning after discovering the enemy.

Because the speed of the laser is too fast, the speed of the radar's energy wave is exactly the same. Before the radar's energy wave is reflected back, the opponent's laser hits it.

Everyone in the smuggling spaceship was terrified, and the captain quickly initiated emergency procedures and closed other cabins near the damaged cabin.

"We are a pirate group. Don't resist in vain. You have been surrounded." At this time, a voice came from the public channel.

"Send a distress message quickly." The captain immediately gave the order on the smuggling spaceship.

Countless signal distress devices on the spacecraft were ejected. Like small rockets, these distress devices would scatter in all directions and then return to the course, continuing to fly while sending distress signals along the course.

"Captain, run!" At this moment, the radar officer shouted in surprise.

Everyone gasped when they saw what the radar displayed.

"Two D-class battleships of the Black Skull Pirates!" someone exclaimed.

"You'd better not destroy the cargo, otherwise we will capture every one of you and let each of you enjoy the most interesting second half of your life. We are the Black Skull Pirates." The Black Skull Pirates shouted again in the communication channel.

"Captain!" Seeing two warships appearing from the depths of the starry sky, the distance was still some distance away, and everyone was waiting for the captain's message.

"We will die if we leave. The company will never let us go after suffering such a huge loss this time." The captain said with a pale face.

Everyone else turned pale when they heard this, because what the captain said was true.

"Captain, the company has suffered such a huge loss this time that it might go bankrupt. And how come our route is known to others? The Black Skull Pirates ambushed here in advance."

"Captain, run first, or it will be too late."

"Yes, Captain!"

"If the company goes bankrupt, we will go back. If it doesn't go bankrupt, we will go to other states."

"I am the captain. I declare to abandon the spacecraft and evacuate!" the captain said with gritted teeth.

Because the other side has two warships, although they are not large in size, they are warships.

"Black Skull Pirates, I am the captain of the Kabasi. We abandon the spaceship. Please do not harm our crew." The captain shouted again on the public communication channel.

"Yes!" The Black Skull Pirates answered directly.

There were more than 700 people on this smuggling ship, including 400 guards, 100 mecha divisions, and other armed personnel, but facing two warships, they had no chance of winning at all.

"Oh my God! The crew on the smuggling spaceship ejected a long distance, only to find that there was a third warship. The lifeboats of these ejected crew members will fly to the nearest channel according to the coordinates.

"It's a lack of martial ethics!" The captain of the smuggling spaceship gritted his teeth. Three warships came to ambush his civilian spaceship. This was simply bullying.

By releasing his spiritual seeds in Aaron, Yang Bo knew almost the entire process of the battle. The warship of the Black Skull Pirates only fired once. Of course, if they fired a few more times, the smuggling spaceship would have been smashed to pieces.

"Oh my god!" A few hours later, Yang Bo was stunned because the Black Skull Pirates had looted a smuggling spaceship and the supplies were so abundant that it was beyond Yang Bo's imagination.

"I'm afraid Troy Company is going to go bankrupt." Yang Bo muttered to himself.

There are a total of 1100 mechas in the smuggling spaceship, including 100 seventh-generation mechas used for spaceship escort, and the remaining 1000 are ninth-generation mechas, all of which are air superiority models.

There are also two thousand aerospace fighters, which are fighters that can penetrate the space atmosphere.

Three sets of fully automatic mining robots and supporting equipment eliminated by the alliance. The largest one is one thousand meters long and ten meters in diameter, like a giant earthworm.

There are also 150 surveillance satellites equipped with their own energy weapons.

There are also many drones and bionic robots. Although these drones and robots are obsolete products in the Alliance, they are good things in the Federation.

"What a pity, what a pity! It's a pity that I could only capture one warship!" Yang Bo then felt distressed.

Because the three warships of the Black Skull Pirates were filled with supplies.

"Fortunately, there are 1100 mechas and a set of the largest mining robots on the Vole." Yang Bo comforted himself.

"Begin the plan!" Yang Bo also started his own plan, and suddenly all the systems of the warship he was on automatically shut down, and the spacecraft's power was turned off.

"Warning, warning, everyone enter the survival capsule!" Then a hurried voice came from inside the spacecraft.

Every spaceship has a survival capsule, which contains supplies and backup energy to keep the crew alive for a certain period of time.

"What's going on? I spent so much money!" Yang Bo started acting, roaring loudly in the command room.
