Poverty makes me capable of anything.

"Danshuihe Mining Company?"

"Danshuihe is the largest mining company in Hailan Forest. The reason they support Hunting Star is that they hope Hunting Star will rob Fitch Mining Company's transport ships."

"So, have you done it?"

"They did it symbolically a few times, but it didn't actually have any impact on Fitch Mining Company."

Robbing Fitch Mining Company and Freshwater Mining Company seems like something that can be made out of this.

Chapter 19 The Red Spider Lily

An Ran's ambition to cause trouble was burning fiercely.

She is very rational now.

If those people were to return to their base in the Hakata asteroid belt, An Ran would naturally be no match for over 400 fully armed pirates.

For a considerable period of time, Enron will be powerless against them.

The best time to get rid of them is now. We need to find a way to keep them on Kleber and prevent them from returning.

"What brings you to Kleber? How many of you have come?"

"Let's make a deal, and after the deal is done, we'll target a transport fleet. There are only 19 people on Kleber, including myself, but there are more than 100 people hiding on the neighboring Frost-α planet."

"Oh."

Excluding the muscular guy, that means there are 18 people left.

Even with Ella, they can only handle about two people; it'll be quite difficult to keep them here.

Players at this stage are too weak. Although they have a lot of enthusiasm for fighting bosses, they'll probably just be feeding the enemy. A single volley of bullets can wipe them out.

It seems we still need to rely on the power of the Imperial government. Capturing the pirate group would be a great achievement, but a problem has arisen: due to the Zerg invasion, the government may not be able to spare the resources.

That giant insect was terrifyingly powerful, and it spawned a constant stream of smaller insects.

“I’m actually quite curious about something,” An Ran said.

"What is it?" the muscular man asked, looking at her.

An Ran explained, "You're the third-in-command of the pirate crew, yet you kill others without hesitation when they get angry. That's quite outrageous. Did you actually have a grudge against each other before?"

The muscular man shook his head and sighed softly: "This is what a pirate crew is like."

Is this the pirate crew?

An Ran parted her lips slightly, wanting to say something, wanting to ask something, but found that she really couldn't say anything meaningful about the sentence.

This is the pirate crew.

An organization that is neither just nor passionate, and whose only means of survival is robbing others, how can it possibly demonstrate justice?

"Pirates" who don't rob are essentially just adventure groups.

Justice, passion, and adventure go hand in hand.

Princess Anran, the pirate, is not exactly a righteous person. Compared to some pirates, she is not bloodthirsty, but she despises the law. She is simply pursuing her own pleasure, and therefore needs more and more resources.

Unlike the Starhunter Pirates, the Enron Pirates only have one leader, Enron.

As a "princess," and with everyone else as her maids, An Ran didn't have the same direct impression as the muscular men.

"By the way, have you ever heard of the Other Shore Flower Starry Sky Pirates?" An Ran suddenly asked.

Red spider lily.

The official name of the Enron pirate crew.

Red spider lily.

The red group, with its red spider lilies blooming in hell, represents the fallen death; the white group, with its white spider lilies blooming in heaven, represents rebirth after death.

The flower symbolizes "beauty and purity" and "the devil's tenderness".

Thinking about it this way, Anran felt that even though she hadn't received formal education, the pirate princess Anran still had a certain level of skill in naming her.

She gave herself the hat of a princess. Although she was born into poverty on a "native planet," she always tried her best to behave like a real princess.

Her short life in her early twenties was far more exciting than her current life.

This could totally be made into an official spin-off novel.

If the company operating Night of the Stars isn't stupid, they probably would have done the same in version 2.0.

"You mean the red spider lily?" The muscular man's eyes suddenly widened. "How could I not have heard of it? Every pirate has heard of it! And..."

The muscular man's eyes gleamed with a fiery light.

"The pirate princess is my idol!!!"

"Oh, really?"

Anran touched her nose.

Emmm...

That was a good question she asked. See, it immediately brought the kidnapped people closer together, and the atmosphere of the conversation became more relaxed.

"The Pirate Princess operates between the Empire and the Victoria Star Circle, and is one of the four most famous pirates in the entire deep space. She is also the most powerful pirate in the Empire!"

"Even the mighty imperial government is a weakling when facing the pirate princess. Dozens of attempts to capture her have failed, and the expeditionary forces they sent out have become supply convoys for her instead. Haha!"

Uh……

Hearing the muscular man's enthusiastic praise, An Ran's expression changed slightly.

Something feels off.

Although the experience of playing the pirate princess Anran was only a few minutes long, I did inherit her memories, and in the game's setting, my current appearance is also the soul of the pirate princess Anran inhabiting the body of the poor girl Anran who died of illness in number 1886.

But Anran also has a memory of Chen Anran, the "online scammer" on Earth.

No one is more noble than anyone else.

Even after so much time has passed, An Ran sometimes wonders whether Chen An Ran transmigrated into the game or whether An Ran, as the pirate princess, absorbed Chen An Ran's memories and transcended them.

This is a very serious issue.

This raises the question of whether it's a transformation or simply a case of a young girl...

Pfft, actually it's all meaningless, An Ran doesn't want to think about such things anymore.

She is satisfied with her current body; she would be even better if her breasts were a little bigger and she were a little taller.

But actually, this isn't a problem. With the advanced technology of "Night of the Stars," breast augmentation and sex reassignment are child's play.

Using supernatural abilities to achieve this is also an option, but An Ran has no further ideas.

When she becomes stronger, gender can no longer be a constraint; instead, her female body allows her to act more smoothly.

Who says lilies can't have children?

Even having a child with Ella isn't entirely impossible...

Anran looked at Ella.

Ella tilted her head and looked back at An Ran with a puzzled expression. She saw something she didn't understand in An Ran's gaze.

"The worst off is the Victoria Star Circle. As a free union, its military is far inferior to the Empire's. The southern states are almost being manipulated by the pirate princess and are becoming untouchable..."

Don't talk nonsense!

"Anran, Anran, what does 'can't afford to offend' mean?" Ella asked Anran in the special channel after hearing the unfamiliar term.

"Ella, please don't learn those swear words."

"Ok!"

Ella's tone was very serious, which reassured Anran. Just imagining Ella pointing at someone and yelling "You're someone I can't mess with" made Anran want to turn into a laughing-crying emoji.

"Even the state legislator's daughter, Juliana, has been captured. Hahaha, I wonder what kind of mess the pirate princess has turned her into." The muscular man laughed three times.

"Don't talk nonsense," An Ran's expression changed again.

What do you mean I kidnapped the Speaker of the State Assembly's daughter? Juliana clearly came with me willingly. This is clearly a moving story of an adopted daughter with a tragic childhood fighting for her rights, not some kind of hentai anime plot.

Discipline?

This is a solemn declaration—

Pirate Princess Anran absolutely did not train Juliana!

"It's a pity that I heard that the pirate princess An Ran has a problem with her sexual orientation, so the Other Shore Flower Pirate Crew doesn't recruit male members at all. Otherwise, I would have given everything to join the Other Shore Flower years ago! Being a cook would be better than being on the Hunting Star."

So even gossip exists?

And, being a cook?

"Princess Anran?" Ella asked in confusion, interrupting Anran's thoughts.

The muscular man nodded: "That's right, the pirate princess's name is An Ran."

“Eh—” Ella drawled out.

Look at the muscular man, then look at An Ran.

"Shh-"

Anran immediately signaled to Ella on the special channel to stop dwelling on the issue.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?" the muscular man asked, puzzled.

“It’s none of your business! The prisoner has no right to question me!” Ella shouted.

"..."

I rub!
