I rely on myself

Chapter 860 The First Battle
In a quiet area of ​​the universe, this place is located on the route between Mars and the Earth. Whether it is going from Mars to the Earth, or from the Earth to Mars, this is the only way. Because of this, there are many transportation or transport ships passing through this area of ​​the universe.

Just like now, the three transport ships are sailing slowly at this moment, but the strange thing is that although these three ships are sailing, their speed is very slow, which makes people feel strange.

The reason for this is that they are not a caravan or anything like that, but a group of space pirates.

Of course, even if they were called space pirates, their scale was not very large. Not to mention the huge scale of the Dawn Horizon with a total of ten ships, they didn't even have a resounding reputation.

However, this is also related to their style of doing things. Unlike ordinary space pirates who directly plunder, this group of space pirates will first pretend to be a caravan, and then after discovering the target, they will lie that their ship has broken down and they need help.

When the target lends a helping hand out of kindness or for reward, they will launch a sneak attack at this time, directly inflicting heavy damage to the target, thus easily taking down the target. Moreover, after each success, they will leave the scene immediately and will never attack a second time, and may even change their appearance.

With these means, although they robbed many caravans, they were never caught or even noticed, and remained at large.

It has been some time since the last plunder, so this group of space pirates began looking for targets again, and for this purpose they came to this place that is a must-pass place on the route between Mars and the Earth.

But maybe it was a matter of luck, but they hadn't encountered any ship for three or four days, which made these space pirates very distressed.

"What's going on? It's been several days, right? How come we haven't encountered a single ship?"

"Yes, that's what I wanted to ask. It's been several days, but I haven't seen a single ship. It's really strange."

"Okay, stop complaining and wait a little longer. Maybe it's just that there are no ships passing by here during this period of time. Let's wait a little longer..."

"Report, a transport ship has been spotted ahead!"

Just when many people were complaining, there was suddenly a report that a ship was spotted ahead.

It was a modified ship. It could be seen that its original prototype was a cargo transport ship. Cargo holds were added on both sides of the ship to expand its carrying capacity. This was nothing unusual.

After careful observation and detection, they confirmed that there was indeed only one ship around. The group of space pirates did not hesitate at all and decided to attack it immediately.

Although they had confirmed that the other side had only one ship, in order to be absolutely sure, the pirates still pretended that there was a problem with the ship and sent out a call for help.

After receiving the distress signal, the people in that ship also started to inquire. The pirates, who were already familiar with such inquiry procedures, said the standard words of asking for help, and then said that if they could lend a helping hand, they were willing to give generous rewards.

At first, when they heard the call for help, the people on the ship were hesitant. It was not until they heard that they would be generously rewarded that they agreed to help and maneuvered the ship closer.

Seeing this scene, the pirates were not surprised. After all, in this vast universe, if they suddenly encountered a group of strangers asking for help, they would basically feel alert. At the same time, there were many people who could not resist the temptation in such a situation.

This is not the first time the pirates have encountered the same situation.

Seeing the enemy ships approaching, the pirates were ready to attack with their MS, waiting for the target ships to get close to a certain distance before they attacked and sank them in the shortest possible time. But at this moment, an accident occurred!
The cargo holds on both sides of the approaching transport ship suddenly opened, and two obviously unusual MSs were instantly ejected and headed straight for the pirates. Looking at the smooth attack process, it was obvious that they had been prepared in advance.

The pirates were completely caught off guard by this scene and were unable to react until the two MSs opened fire and the bullets hit their ships.

Amid the violent shaking, the pirates finally reacted. They quickly sent out their well-prepared mobile suits and demanded the transport ship why it attacked them.

But it was obvious that the transport ships on the opposite side did not doubt the pirates' accusations and even opened fire.

There was no other way, so the pirates had to quickly organize a counterattack.

Inside the bridge of the transport ship, Eugene, who was sitting in the captain's seat, smiled smugly at the pirates who hadn't reacted at all. He said, "Hahahahaha... Did you see how embarrassed those pirates on the other side were when they didn't react? That's really funny."

"It's funny, but do we really not need to attack? It always feels like it's not safe enough to rely on Lin Yuan and Xino alone."

Hearing Eugene's words, Chad, who was standing behind, replied.

The people in this transport ship were none other than the Tekkadan. The reason they were here, and disguised as a caravan, was because of the group of space pirates in front of them.

Although they will not stay in the same place after each robbery, there will always be traces after a few times.

At first, Gjallarhorn did not find anything wrong, but when they received reports of many missing caravans, they became suspicious and began to investigate. They soon discovered that when those caravans disappeared, there was always another fleet nearby.

With the clues, the next step would be much easier for the giant Gjallarhorn.

After some investigation, the target was quickly locked on, but because the power of the Mars branch had been transferred to Olga by McGillis, the task of eliminating the pirates fell on the Tekkadan.

It just so happened that the two Gundams, Morax and Flauros, had just finished their adjustments, so they decided to use this group of pirates as their target to test the strength of the two machines, which led to the scene before them.

"There are quite a few of you, so show me your moves!"

Xino was also extremely excited when he saw the dozen or so Spinarodi attacking from the pirate ship.

While Floros held a rifle in each hand and kept shooting to contain the enemy, the two railguns, the special weapons on his back, also started working.

After locking the target, Sino pressed the trigger without hesitation, and two bullets were fired from the railgun at an explosive speed, passing like a meteor, instantly piercing through the two targets. The next moment, Rody exploded and turned into two dazzling sparks!
