Shadow of Deep Space

Chapter 412 Treasure (Five in One)

At this time, Vickers, Hailan and her daughter, Rhine and others gathered around and said to Su Ming with great joy.

"Boss, you are so awesome. You haven't even seen the people from Sky City. Their faces are as black as charcoal."

"Mr. Su Ming, thank you for your hard work."

"Ah."

Su Ming simply nodded in response.

At this time, Ankajia saw that Su Ming looked uninterested and asked in confusion.

"Boss, didn't you win the battle and take back the Crimson Kingdom? Why do you seem not very happy?"

When everyone heard Ankajia's words, they all looked at Su Ming.

Su Ming sighed slightly and said.

"I'm not unhappy, it's just that things are not that simple. Although we have taken back the Crimson Kingdom, the real challenge has just begun. We must defend the Crimson Kingdom, otherwise everything we have done before will be meaningless."

"Su Ming is right. It's easy to conquer territory, but it's hard to defend it! Especially the Crimson Nation. It's being exploited by the Imperial Army and its troops have been defeated. What can it use to defend it?"

Vickers agreed.

Madam Hai Lan looked at Su Ming nervously and asked.

"Mr. Su Ming, what should we do then?"

"In fact, it's not that there is no solution. The best way is to join the Federation. As long as the Crimson Nation joins the Federation, all problems will be solved."

Su Ming said in a deep voice.

In fact, what Mo Xiu said was right. Joining the Federation was indeed the only way for the Scarlet Nation.

Once the Crimson Nation successfully joins the Federation, the federal troops stationed in the two nearby neutral countries will be obligated to assist in the defense of the Crimson Nation.

Even if they couldn't hold out under the attack of the Imperial Army, the three major transit countries would fall together. And after the fall, they would fight back and the territory would still be returned to Hailan and the others. This was the benefit of joining the Federation.

At this time, Vickers directly refuted.

"Impossible. The Crimson Nation cannot join the Federation. Not to mention that the Crimson Nation currently does not meet the rigid requirements in all aspects, nor does it propose whether the members agree or disagree. Let's just talk about the three vice presidents. If you want to join the Federation smoothly, you must get the support of at least two of the three vice presidents! The one in Sky City will definitely not agree to it now. After all, you are taking food from them. You should be thankful if they don't make things difficult for you."

"You're right."

Su Ming replied with a headache.

He didn't have any good solution now. If it really didn't work, he could only ask the legion commander for help and give her half of the profits.

Upon hearing this, Hailan, her daughter, Rhine and others fell silent, and their original joy instantly disappeared.

Su Ming took a deep breath, adjusted his mentality, and said to Hai Lan.

"Madam, let me think of a solution for this matter. Let's go back to the Crimson Country first."

"it is good!"

Mrs. Hyland nodded.

At this time, Vickers said to Su Ming.

"Then I'll go first. Tell me if you have anything."

"it is good!"

Su Ming nodded.

On the other side, in the cold metal corridor.

Luo Kui, Parekent and others followed closely behind Mo Xiu.

"Master, are you just going to give the Crimson Country to them?"

Parekent asked irritably.

"if not?"

Mo Xiu stopped, sighed slightly and asked back.

"Master, are you letting me down on purpose?"

Parekent asked after a moment's hesitation.

When Mo Xiu heard what Parekent said, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and his arms were still aching slightly.

"I didn't let him win. That Su Ming is really good at fighting. It's really amazing."

Mo Xiu explained helplessly.

"What should we do now? Master! Our current situation is not optimistic. Sky City has emptied its coffers to build the Wind Sky and those mechas. Now that so many troops have been dispatched, military expenses are flowing like water every day. We were originally counting on the three neutral countries to recover our losses, but now the Crimson Country has been taken away. How can we explain this to Lord Faron?"

Parekent said with a sad face.

"Lord Faroun's side is not the most difficult thing to explain. The real difficult thing is to explain to those capital bosses who booked the Crimson Country. How can we explain to them?"

Luo Kui added with a headache.

In fact, a large part of the military expenses for Sky City's expedition was funded by the major capital giants behind Sky City.

Their original plan was to conquer three major transit countries, with the management rights belonging to Sky City and the future operating rights distributed to the bigwigs who invested.

Now that the Crimson Country is gone, they have no way to fulfill their promise. And the worst thing is that the Crimson Country is the best in terms of personnel and geographical location among the three major transit countries.

"Don't worry. The Crimson Country was taken away by them, but they may not be able to keep it. Once they lose it, we can take it back."

Mo Xiu coughed and replied.

"Master, do you think it's possible? The Crimson Country is such a great place, the Thirteenth Legion will definitely move in! You know, the Thirteenth Legion is not a pushover. Even if the Imperial Army wants to take it back, they have to think twice."

Luo Kui didn't hold out much hope either.

In his eyes, Su Ming would go to take over the Crimson Country, most likely at the instruction of the Commander of the Thirteenth Legion.

They certainly won't let go so easily.

When Mo Xiu heard this, he became more and more embarrassed. Even though he had belittled the Crimson Country as worthless in front of Su Ming.

In fact, the Crimson Nation is of great value, otherwise why would they go to so much trouble?

Therefore, the Thirteenth Legion will definitely not give in easily.

"Don't worry, even if there is no Crimson Country, aren't there still six fat sheep ahead?"

Mo Xiu said with a forced smile.

"There are still six fat sheep in front, but they are not tasty, and there is a tiger watching behind."

Luo Kui replied very worriedly.

"I know it's not tasty, but we have to eat it no matter how bad it tastes! The army is here, and the money has been spent. We have no choice. Let's get ready! Next, we will compete with the Dark Star Empire."

Mo Xiu said with a serious expression.

"Yes!"

Luo Kui and Parekent replied solemnly.
-
Crimson Star.

The Wind broke through the clouds and appeared above the Crimson City.

The streets of the entire Crimson City were filled with people, and the square in front of the palace was filled with countless people.

All the people were looking forward to the return of Princess Hailan and Su Ming.

The news that the Fifth and Thirteenth Legions had fought over the flag in the square had already spread.

They knew very well that today's decision would determine the future of the Crimson Nation. Either it would successfully restore its country, or it would become a colony of the Sky City.

Although becoming a colony of Sky City is better than being ruled by the Dark Star Empire, it is not much better and one will still be demoted to the bottom of society.

At this time, the Fengdong boarding exit opened.

Swish!

Su Ming controlled the pseudo V-generation mecha, Shadow Lord, and rushed out with Rhine and others, flying towards the Crimson Square.

At this time, the crowd in the dark square began to retreat, leaving enough open space.

Bang!
The pseudo V-generation mecha, Shadow Lord, landed first.

Then Su Ming controlled the mecha to open the cockpit and the loudspeaker, and stretched his left hand to his chest.

At this time, Su Ming, Madam Hailan and Kartini walked out of the cockpit, stood on the palm of the mecha, and looked down at the crowd of people below.

The whole square was very quiet and all the people were worried.

Hai Lan turned her head and looked at Su Ming.

Su Ming nodded at her, indicating that they could begin.

Hailan took a deep breath and announced to everyone.

"Everyone, I am Princess Hailan. I am happy to tell you a good news. With the help of General Su Ming, the Crimson Country not only drove away the Imperial Army, but also persuaded the Federal Army to give in. From now on, the Crimson Country will stand tall in this world again, and I will serve as the first queen of the Crimson Country and lead the Crimson Country forward!"

As Hailan finished speaking, the people at the scene suddenly became excited and kept cheering.

"Queen Hailan!"

"Her Majesty the Queen!"

Su Ming was a little surprised when he saw the people's reactions. It seemed that Hai Lan was still very popular among the people.

At this time, Hailan raised her hand and signaled everyone to be quiet.

The cheers gradually faded away.

Hailan said with a firm look in her eyes and a solemn expression.

"Everyone, because of the invasion of the Imperial Army, our Crimson Country is devastated. Not only have we suffered heavy casualties, but the economy has collapsed and supplies are extremely scarce! But I believe in you all. We can definitely regain our glory. From now on, we must save all resources and re-operate the entire country."

In fact, Hailan's words were not an exaggeration. The Crimson Country has a superior geographical location and is the best transit country in the Danube Star Sea. Its people are kind, beautiful women are abundant, and the country is united.

During its heyday, the economy was also very prosperous. In the Danube Star Sea ranking, it ranked fourth, second only to the three neutral countries supported by the Federation. You have to know that the Crimson Country has no one to support it, it relies entirely on itself.

In addition, the Crimson Country also formed a fleet with strong combat effectiveness.

When the Dark Star Empire invaded, this unit fought to the death and caused considerable trouble to the imperial army.

At this time, many people in the square were also shouting excitedly.

"Follow the Queen's will!"

"Well, I believe the future of the Crimson Country must be full of hope. Let's work together."

Hailan said to everyone.

clap clap!

There was warm applause.

Hailan took Kartini's hand and bowed to everyone.

Then Su Ming brought Hai Lan and her daughter back to the cockpit, closed the cockpit, started the mecha and flew towards the Crimson Palace.

After a while.

Su Ming and Hai Lan and her daughter walked into the empty hall. Rhine and others were all waiting outside the hall.

Hailan walked to the throne, reached out and touched the armrest of the throne. The past events came to her mind vividly, and her eyes were slightly moist.

She took a deep breath and then slowly sat on the throne.

At this moment, she suddenly felt as if a heavy weight was pressing down on her, making it a little hard for her to breathe, but she quickly adjusted herself.

At this time Su Ming asked in a deep voice.

"Queen Hailan, what are your plans for the future? Right now, the Crimson Country is in a state of disrepair, and there is an extreme shortage of various materials and funds."

"Mr. Su Ming, you can just call me Madam Hai Lan. As for my next plan, I have two directions."

Hailan replied solemnly.

Su Ming was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that Hai Lan had already had this idea. He immediately spoke.

"tell me the story."

"First, find a way to unfreeze the Crimson Nation's assets and deposits in the Federation. We are not completely without assets in the Crimson Nation. We invested in many industries in the Federation in the early days."

Hai Lan said to Su Ming.

When Su Ming heard Hai Lan's words, he smiled bitterly and asked.

"Mrs. Hailan, this may be a bit difficult."

"Mr. Su Ming, I have the certificates of those assets and deposits in my hand, which can prove that those assets belong to our Crimson Country. Is there no other way?"

"Mrs. Hailan, I don't doubt what you said. But this matter is not that simple. To put it bluntly, those frozen assets have already been eaten by those guys. If you want them to spit them out, it will be extremely difficult."

"Ugh."

When Hailan heard this, she couldn't help but sigh.

"Mrs. Hailan, don't be discouraged. Let me think of another way to unfreeze the assets."

Su Ming comforted Hai Lan.

"Well, there's only one other way."

Hailan nodded and said.

"What way?"

Su Ming looked at Hai Lan with great curiosity.

"Go to the Dark Forest to get the wealth left by my husband Amis."

Hai Lan did not hide anything and spoke directly to Su Ming.

"what?"

Su Ming was stunned for a moment.

"Mr. Su Ming, don't worry. I will definitely deliver on my promise to give you the Eternal Metal."

Hai Lan assured Su Ming.

When Su Ming heard this, he couldn't help but take a breath. It turned out that there seemed to be more than one piece of Eternal Metal in that base, and there were other treasures as well.

But Su Ming was not a greedy person, so he spoke directly.

"it is good!"

"By the way, there's one more thing."

"You said."

"I would like to ask Mr. Su Ming to protect the Crimson Country. The Crimson Country is willing to provide you with 10% of the income every year."

Hai Lan directly offered a big chip to Su Ming.

You have to know that a kingdom has high income and high expenditure, so there is not much money left in the middle. Ten percent of the profit is equivalent to most of the remaining income, which is very scary!

If he agreed, it would mean that he would be the behind-the-scenes shareholder of the Crimson Nation.

"Okay, then when are we going to the Dark Forest to get it?"

Su Ming was also very surprised when he heard this, and then agreed without any hesitation.

He originally intended to support the Crimson Nation, so this is just right.

"The sooner the better. The situation is unstable now. If we delay, things will change easily."

Hailan replied decisively.

When Su Ming heard Hai Lan's words, he was very impressed. He didn't expect that she did things so cleanly and efficiently without any drag. He then spoke.

"In that case, let's call the people in, arrange the aftermath, and then we can set off."

"it is good!"

Hailan replied in agreement.

Su Ming then shouted towards the entrance of the hall.

"Rhine, all of you come in!"

At this time, Rhine and others, as well as Hodge and others, all walked in and greeted them.

"Queen Hailan."

"Boss!"

At this time, Hailan turned her head and looked at Hodge and said.

"Hodge, Mr. Su Ming and I are going to go out and raise some funds. From now on, the Crimson Country will be temporarily handed over to you. You must ensure the lives of all the people and speed up the resumption of production."

"Your Majesty, that material"

Hodge said with some embarrassment.

It's not that he doesn't want to, but the treasury and material warehouse of the Crimson Kingdom are empty. As the saying goes, a good cook cannot cook without rice.

Su Ming naturally saw Hodge's embarrassment, and he immediately spoke.

"Hodge, don't worry, I will take care of the supplies."

"That's no problem."

Hodge heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Su Ming's words.

Su Ming turned his head and looked at Xiu En and others and spoke.

"Shoun, Hegarth!"

"exist!"

The two of them responded seriously.

"I order the two of you to lead a thousand soldiers to stay in the Crimson Country and assist Hodge in managing the country until I return."

"Yes!"

Xiuen and Hegaz responded immediately.

"And you must pull all the supplies on that level 4 transport ship to the Crimson Country, and then hand the transport ship over to Captain Haggart and his men, and have them repair the ship and transport some basic supplies to the Crimson Country to ensure the survival of the people of the Crimson Country!"

Su Ming instructed Xiu En.

"no problem."

Xiu En nodded in response.

"I will transfer the money for purchasing supplies to you later, and you will give it to Captain Hargett. And if you encounter any trouble, you can ask Vickers for help. I will say hello to Vickers."

"I understand."

"Okay, Rhine, follow me."

After Su Ming finished the arrangements, he immediately spoke to Rhine and others.

"it is good!"

Rhine and others responded one after another.
-
Not long after, in the central control room of the Fengdong.

Su Ming walked in with Hai Lan and others.

He walked over to the command chair and sat down, then spoke to Timmy.

"Send a communication request to the Tsar."

"OK, connecting."

Timmy immediately sent a communication request to the Tsar.

Swish!
A few seconds later, Vickers' virtual image appeared in front of Su Ming.

"Hey, Vickers!"

Su Ming said with a smile.

At this time, Vickers said to Su Ming unhappily.

"Su Ming, you still have the nerve to send me a communication."

Su Ming asked in confusion after hearing Vickers' words.

"Ah? What happened? I didn't do anything?"

He is also confused now, because everything was fine when they separated not long ago.

"I haven't done anything yet. Because of you, Kafu, Chen Ying, Kelifa and others are all clamoring to switch to your place. Do you feel embarrassed?"

Vickers lashed out at Su Ming.

"No, I didn't poach your people."

Su Ming replied in confusion after hearing what Vickers said.

"You didn't poach them, but the problem is that they all want to jump over and join you! I'm warning you, don't poach my people. I don't have many of them. If you poach Kaf and the others, I won't be able to survive."

Vickers also gave Su Ming a shot of prevention in advance.

In fact, it’s no wonder that Kraft and others want to change jobs.

The main reason was that they saw that Su Ming was too powerful. He led such a small team and single-handedly defeated the Third Legion of the Dark Star Empire. Not only did he kill Lieutenant General Muk, he also pulled the fat piece of meat, the Crimson Kingdom, from the mouth of the Sky City.

They were also very envious and jealous, and really wanted to eat meat with Su Ming.

"Okay, I promise not to actively poach them, okay?"

Su Ming replied with a wry smile.

"No, you still have to reject them, so that I can be relieved on my side."

Vickers then added.

"That's too much. Aren't you making me the bad guy?"

Su Ming replied speechlessly.

"If you don't want to be a bad guy, then I have to be the villain and hold them back. How can I lead this team then?"

Vickers yelled at Su Ming.

"I'll try to refuse, okay."

Su Ming assured helplessly.

"That's more like it. What do you want from me?"

"I have something to do. I have to leave Danube Star Sea for a while. I will leave Xiuen and the others in the Crimson Country. Can you help look after them for me?"

Su Ming said with a smile.

"What are you going to do? Are you going to secretly attack the Imperial Army again?"

Vickers was also surprised when he heard Su Ming's words and asked quickly.

"Don't worry, I'm not that careless. I'm just going to do something."

Su Ming replied awkwardly.

"Then can you tell me what you are going to do?"

"No, it needs to be kept secret."

"Okay, I'll try my best to help you watch over it, and you come back early."

Vickers replied with a sigh.

"Well, thank you very much."

Su Ming cut off the communication after he finished speaking.

At this time, Timmy walked up to Su Ming and asked respectfully.

"Commander Su Ming, everything is ready. We can set sail at any time."

Su Ming nodded slightly, turned his head and looked at Queen Hailan and said.

"Mrs. Hailan, can you tell me how to get there now?"

After hearing this, Rhine and the others all looked at Queen Hailan. Although they didn't know the specific situation, they could guess that Queen Hailan must have reached some kind of agreement with Su Ming to get Su Ming's full support, and now it was time to fulfill it.

"Su Ming, please give me the necklace."

Queen Hailan extended her hand towards Su Ming and spoke softly.

After hearing this, Su Ming took out the inconspicuous necklace and handed it to Queen Hai Lan.

After Queen Hailan took the necklace, she flipped the cube-shaped metal pendant a few times and gently touched the pendant with her index finger.

In an instant, the inconspicuous metal pendant's surface began to light up with lines on it, and then a star map of a dark forest was projected, with a striking red dot marked in the star map.

"This is the hiding spot."

Hai Lan said to Su Ming and others.

"This is the Dark Forest. Are we going to the Dark Forest?"

Timmy and the others said in surprise.

"Well, is there a problem?"

Su Ming looked at Timmy and the others.

"Boss, isn't the Dark Forest on the side of the Dark Star Empire? How do we get there?"

Rhine asked worriedly.

"This is easy. We can bypass the Lost Land and then enter the Dark Forest from there. This is the route we took to escape. The distance is not far either. If everything goes well, we can reach our destination in more than a month."

Su Ming looked at the star map and explained to Rhine and others.

"it is good."

After listening to this, Rhine and others nodded.

Timmy said at this time with some concern.

"Captain Su Ming, I am not familiar with the Dark Forest. Although I have a star map, I might get lost in it."

Although they had been to the Dark Forest before, they were either with the Tsar or the Holy Army at that time, and they were unfamiliar with the Dark Forest. "Don't worry about that. We have set up unique marks along the way. As long as you follow the marks, there will be no problems. The only thing to worry about is running into monsters. There are many powerful monsters living in the Dark Forest."

When Hailan finished speaking, a look of worry appeared on her face.

"Well, you don't have to worry about that. With our boss here, any monster can be a problem. We can kill them one by one."

Rhine said confidently.

When Su Ming heard what Lai Rhine said, he frowned and scolded her.

"Rhine, stop being such a pessimist. If you really run into a high-level monster, I'll beat you to death!"

"Ha ha!"

When Timmy and the others heard Su Ming's words, they all laughed.

"Boss, I was wrong."

Rhine also scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore, let's go, Timmy!"

Su Ming gave orders to Timmy.

"Yes, pass on my order, set the course to Dark Forest, and activate the superluminal flight device."

Timmy responded immediately.

"clear."

Li Menghan and others responded while operating.
-
Blood Ridge Fortress.

The majestic and luxurious palace hall.

The commander of the Oss army sat on the throne with a gloomy face.

Deputy Legion Commander Kaisas and Deputy Legion Commander Avabido stood on both sides of Os with solemn expressions.

"Lord Os, the Federation is coming with such force, isn't the situation very good?"

"Humph, I thought something must have happened since Council President Long Xian hadn't been out for a hundred years. But it turns out that he is still alive and has even spread the word."

Oss was also very upset.

The current situation is becoming increasingly unfavorable for him.

Just then, six long-distance communication requests popped up.

Os waved his hand, and six holographic image frames appeared in front of him instantly. The images of the rulers of the six neutral countries suddenly popped up.

They shouted in horror.

"Lord Os, you have to save us. The Federation's large army is about to attack us. You can't just ignore us."

"Yes, Lord Os."

"What are you afraid of? I'm still here, I can put my heart at ease."

Oss shouted angrily when he heard this.

When the six kingdoms heard Os's words, their panicked expressions eased a little and they all forced out a smile.

"Lord Os, you are right."

"Arrange them all to guard their respective areas, and don't worry about the rest."

Os said coldly to the six kings.

"Ok."

The six great rulers cut off their communications one after another.

At this time, Awabido asked with a tense expression.

"Sir, do we really want to confront the Federation head-on?"

"Awabido, what do you mean?"

Deputy Legion Commander Kaisas asked in a deep voice.

"It's nothing. I just think that would be a big loss. Since we have the supplies, we might as well retreat to the border defense line."

Awabido spoke his mind.

"You are talking nonsense. If we do this, the six neutral countries will be occupied by the Federation, and the Empire will completely lose the Danube Star Sea."

Kaisas objected coldly.

"We can find a way to get it back if we lose it. If we go to war with the main force of the Federation now, we will only suffer heavy losses, which will be more than we gain."

Avabido insisted on his opinion.

"That's enough, stop talking! When has our Empire ever been afraid of the Federation? Let's make all the arrangements and prepare for the battle."

Os slammed the armrest and stood up, speaking angrily.

"Yes!"

Awabido and the other man immediately responded in a deep voice.
-
More than a month later.

Dark forest interior.

The Wind, entangled with many mechanical octopuses, shuttled through the black nebula like a ghost.

In the central control room.

Su Ming and others stood together, studying the projected star map.

They had been in the dark forest for many days, and the journey had been very smooth without encountering too many obstacles.

Timmy looked at the star map carefully and said to Su Ming.

"We are close to our destination. If everything goes well, we will arrive in a day."

"very good."

Su Ming replied happily.

"Everyone, have some coffee, some snacks, and take a break."

At this time, Ailu and Anqi came over with coffee and snacks and shouted to Su Ming and others.

"Okay, thank you."

Su Ming and others reached out and picked up the coffee.

boom!
Suddenly, a huge explosion exploded on the energy barrier of the Fengdong, and the entire Fengdong was shaken violently.

The coffee in Su Ming and others' hands spilled directly on themselves.

A red warning box immediately popped up on the virtual operation screen.

"Warning: The ship is under attack from star thunder!"

"Warning: Energy barrier strength decreased by eleven percent."

The moment Timmy saw the prompt, an expression of extreme shock appeared on her face, and she immediately shouted to Li Menghan and others.

"Oh no, it's Xinglei, stop the boat quickly!"

Li Menghan and others immediately followed Timmy's orders.

However, the Fengdong was traveling at such a fast speed that it was impossible to stop immediately and continued to fly forward.

The chain reaction instantly triggered the star thunder.

Rumble!
A chain of explosions occurred.

The energy barrier of the Fengdong collapsed in an instant, and the hull was also blown up.

Su Ming and others almost fell to the ground, but fortunately the Fengdong stopped at this time and did not continue to fly forward.

"Debrief the situation."

Timmy spoke up immediately.

"The energy barrier collapsed and the K12 armor layer was damaged, but fortunately it did not penetrate."

Li Menghan and others reported.

When Su Ming heard Li Menghan's words, his face darkened.

At this time, Rhine and others asked in confusion.

"Timmy, why did we run into the star thunder trap? Who ambushed us?"

"I'm not sure. Either it's the mechanical clan or it's the human clan! But no matter which side it is, it's not a good thing."

Timmy analyzed rationally.

At this moment, the scanning device suddenly issued a shrill alarm.

Timmy and the others immediately looked at the scanning device screen, only to see two large red dots and thousands of small red dots pop up on it.

"Warning: Level 4 battleship Black Raider detected!"

"Warning: Level 4 battleship Steel Mane detected!"

Then the optical imaging device displays the captured image.

In the distant starry sky, two level 4 battleships with a one-eyed skull logo and thousands of mechas of various models appeared.

Timmy saw it and reported with a frown.

"Captain Su Ming, we are in trouble. We have run into the Black Shark Interstellar Pirates."

"Is this interstellar pirate group very strong?"

"Very strong, it is the third largest interstellar pirate group in the world."

"I see."

Su Ming replied in a deep voice.

Inside the central control room of the Tier 4 battleship Black Raider.

A big man wearing third-generation exoskeleton armor, with a big beard, acne marks all over his face and fierce eyes, sat in the command chair, holding a bottle of strong liquor in his hand and drinking it in big gulps.

At this time, a man with shifty eyes and a very wretched look said excitedly.

"Fuck, Brother Shagaru, the star thunder has been detonated, we caught a fish!"

"What kind of fish is that? Show me the image quickly."

Shagaru's eyes suddenly lit up and he immediately urged Giotto.

"it is good!"

Giotto took action immediately.

The Fengdong, which was stopped instantly by the explosion, came into everyone's sight.

Shagaru cursed excitedly when he saw the Wind-Moon.

"Damn it, I didn't expect that we ambushed here, but instead of catching the Holy Army, we caught a big fish."

"Brother, why does this level 4 battleship look so much like one from the Dark Star Empire?"

Giotto reminded with some concern.

"So what about the Dark Star Empire? We'll still rob it!"

Shagaru's expression changed for a moment, and then he spoke.

"Brother is right, what should we do next?"

"Idiot? Tell Ango to surround them and send them a communication request."

"Yes!"

The central control room of the Fengdong.

When operating the screen, a red prompt popped up.

"Warning: Received a communication request from the Black Raider. Do you want to accept it?"

After seeing the prompt, Timmy turned his head and looked at Su Ming.

"Commander Su Ming, the other party has sent a communication request. Should we accept it?"

"Take it. I want to see who is so arrogant as to ambush us."

Su Ming said, suppressing the anger in his heart.

"Yes!"

Timmy immediately picked up the communication.

The next second, Shagaru's holographic image appeared in front of Su Ming.

Su Ming said coldly.

"Who are you? Why are you ambushing us?"

"Haha, who am I? I am Shagaru from the Black Shark Interstellar Pirates. Who are you?"

Shagaru asked very arrogantly.

"We are from the Federation. If you don't want to die, get out of the way!"

Su Ming warned directly.

"Federation? Aren't you a fat sheep? We can't let you go. I originally thought you were from the Dark Star Empire, so I was a little worried. Now I don't have to worry at all. I warn you, you have been targeted by our ships, surrender obediently, otherwise don't blame us for being rude."

Shagaru threatened with great contempt.

Su Ming was also amused by Shagaru, and then replied with a gloomy face.

"Okay, we surrender, and please come over to receive it."

When Rhine and others heard Su Ming's words, their faces turned red. This guy was really looking for death.

"Good, you are very sensible. Just wait for me!"

Shagaru immediately hung up the call.

"Brother, you want to lead the team yourself? Isn't that a bit risky?"

Giotto asked, somewhat worriedly.

"What are you afraid of? Can the meat on the chopping board really stir up waves? And that boat looks so high-end, there must be a lot of treasures and girls in it. Let's go!"

After Shagaru finished speaking, he rushed towards the hangar with Giotto.

Inside the central control room of Fengdong.

Rhine and others all looked at Su Ming and asked.

"Boss, what should we do next?"

"Everyone follow me to the hangar. When those pirates arrive, we'll teach them a lesson they'll never forget."

Su Ming said in a cold voice.

"Yes!"

Rhine and others responded one after another.

Su Ming then led everyone towards the mobile platform.

After a while.

Shagaru, driving a third-generation mecha, the Falcon, and accompanied by many of his younger brothers, excitedly headed towards the Wind.

A careful observation reveals that within the mecha formation of this group of interstellar pirates, one-third of the mechas are modified first-generation mechas.

Those two level 4 battleships also looked very old, with various patches all over their hulls.

Just as Shagaru and his men were approaching the Wind.

click!
The Fengdong's boarding exits opened in a row.

Swish!

One after another, brand new second-generation mecha Iron Guards flew out and were neatly arranged in a square formation.

"stop!"

Shagaru was startled and shouted.

Many pirates stopped their mechas and looked at the group of mechas in astonishment.

At this time, Su Ming controlled the pseudo V-generation mecha, the Lord of Shadows, and led a group of Lei Yu to rush out of the exit and fly to the front of the many mecha formations.

Giotto asked dully, looking at the Lord of Shadows.

"Brother, what kind of mecha is that leading the way? Why is it so big? It looks like a pseudo-V-generation mecha? And why are there so many fourth-generation mechas behind him?"

When Shagaru saw the Lord of Shadows, all the hair on his body stood up and his face was filled with fear.

"What do you mean by 'seemingly'? That's the pseudo V-generation mecha."

"Well, what then? Do we still rob?"

Giotto asked stutteringly.

"You're the one who's stealing my head! Run!"

Shagaru cursed in shock and anger.

Just as Shagaru and others turned around and prepared to escape, Su Ming's voice was heard in the public communication channel.

"Don't run, we are here to surrender."

"Brother, this is all a misunderstanding. Can we not rob it?"

Shagaru begged for mercy with a sad face.

"No, we have to rob. If you don't rob, we'll rob you. Come on!"

Su Ming then controlled the Lord of Shadows to transform into a stream of black light, cutting through the starry sky and attacking Shagaru directly.

"Mom!"

In fear, Shagaru turned around and ran away controlling the third-generation mecha Falcon.

At this time, Rhine and others rushed towards the rest of the interstellar pirates like beasts, shooting beams of light at them.

Rumble!
One mecha after another was blown up.

At this time, the main gun of the Fengdong was quickly charged, and the firing ports on the ship opened one by one.

Swish!

A sky full of missiles was fired at the two old level 4 battleships.

In an instant, the level 4 battleship was covered by dense missiles.

Rumble!
The energy barrier shook violently.

The two level 4 battleships were also stunned. It took them a while to react. They immediately opened their main guns and shot two dazzling rays of light at the Fengdong.

At this time, all the mechanical octopuses attached to the ship detached from the ship, gathered together and entangled, their heads split open, revealing a spherical crystal. Then they lit up at the same time, instantly unfolding an energy barrier!
boom!
The two incoming beams of light were completely blocked.

At this time, Su Ming controlled the Lord of Shadows like a ghost, appeared in front of Shagaru, and said coldly.

"Where to run?"

"Don't kill me, I surrender."

Shagaru said tremblingly as he looked at the Lord of Shadows in front of him.

Su Ming didn't say anything and directly swung the plasma lightsaber towards Shagaru.

"do not want!"

Shagaru shouted in despair.

However, just when he thought he was dead.

Click!

His mecha's head, hands and feet were all cut off.

Apart from that, Su Ming did not attack the cockpit, but even so, Shagaru was scared to death.

At this time, Su Ming shouted in the communication channel.

"Ankajia, I leave this leader to you."

"Ok!"

Ankajia flew over immediately.

Su Ming then controlled the Lord of Shadows, transformed into a stream of light, and rushed towards the two old level 4 battleships.

The two old level 4 battleships were frightened when they detected Su Ming rushing towards them. They immediately gave up the fight and turned their bows to escape.

Timmy saw this and said in the communication channel.

"Captain Su Ming, the enemy is trying to escape. Should we sink them?"

"One ship per person, kill them all!"

Su Ming said to Timmy without hesitation.

Although these two ships are level 4 battleships, they are too old and not worth much money, and it is difficult to tow them back.

"Yes!"

Timmy responded immediately.

At this time, Su Ming controlled the mecha and raised his left hand, shooting a series of cationic beams at the turning Black Sweeper!
Rumble!
The entire Black Raider's energy barrier was violently distorted.

Then Su Ming suddenly controlled the Lord of Shadows to speed up and pierced the twisted energy barrier with a sword.

boom!
The entire barrier collapsed in an instant.

The next second, Su Ming accelerated suddenly, controlling the pseudo V-generation mecha, Shadow Lord, and turned into a stream of light that penetrated into the power area of ​​the level 4 battleship Black Raider and came out from the other side.

Boom~
A huge explosion occurred in the middle of the Black Raider.

At this time, the main gun of the Level 4 battleship Fengdong was fully charged, and it shot a dazzling beam of light at the fleeing Level 4 battleship Gangmane.

More than an hour later.

The entire group of interstellar pirates was wiped out, and Su Ming and others returned to the Fengdong.

Central control.

Su Ming walked in with Rhine and others.

Timmy greeted Su Ming respectfully.

"Thank you for your hard work, sir."

"It's a small matter. Bring the person over here."

Su Ming walked to his chair and sat down, saying in a deep voice.

Ankajia and others then brought Shagaru in front of Su Ming and kicked him directly, making him kneel down.

Su Ming looked down at Shagaru with interest and said with a smile.

"Don't you want me to surrender?"

"Sir, I was blind and offended you. Please be magnanimous and let me go. I promise that this matter will be over and I will not cause you any trouble. How do you think?"

Shagaru said with fear but also very firmness.

When Rhine and the others heard Shagaru's words, they all laughed until their stomachs hurt.

"Where do you get your confidence?"

"And let us let you go?"

Shagaru's expression turned blue and red, and then he spoke through gritted teeth.

"I'm not kidding you. I have someone above me. You'd better let me go."

"There's someone above me, too."

Su Ming replied with a smile.

"I'm from the Black Shark Pirates, the third largest pirate group in the universe. If you offend us, you're dead."

Shagaru threatened fiercely.

"We are from the federal military. Who is afraid of whom?"

Su Ming replied with a half-smile.

"Brother, I was wrong, please forgive me."

When Shagaru heard Su Ming's words, he immediately wilted like a deflated ball.

"Shut up. From now on, I ask you questions and you answer them. If you answer a question incorrectly or if I am not satisfied, I will chop off one of your fingers."

Su Ming interrupted Shagaru and got straight to the point.

"Good, good, good."

Shagaru responded quickly.

"Why are you burying star mines here? Who are you ambushing?"

Su Ming asked in a cold voice.

"We are ambushing the Holy Army."

Shagaru replied simply.

"The Holy Army?"

When Su Ming and the others heard Shagaru's words, they all showed very surprised expressions.
