Chapter 1056 Exploding Gold Coins

Time went back a few seconds, and the Swan was gravity sailing in the void, preparing to head to the next jump point.

As it was early in the morning, Alyssa and Fang Lanyin were the only ones on duty in the bridge.

They were heading to the next possible stop of the starship. This time, Alyssa needed a complete and effective plan and could not just rush into it headlong.

At this moment, the loudspeaker under the radar sounded an alarm, which immediately woke up An Yun, who was on night duty. She quickly stared at the radar screen and said:
"A ship has completed its jump and appeared on the radar. After comparing and analyzing the database, it is a high-speed commercial ship."

"A commercial ship? How could it appear in such a desolate galaxy?"

High-speed commercial ships are actually a type of ship between battleships and shuttles. They were originally designed for use within the galaxy. Although they have the ability to jump, the jump distance is very short and they can only jump a few times.

It's like a short-haul small business jet that was originally designed to run branch routes.

Moreover, the void is not safe at all. It is easy to encounter pirates outside the habitable galaxy. With the poor armament and barely-there shield of a high-speed commercial ship, traveling alone outside the galaxy is simply courting death.

The Swan is now more than twenty ar away from the nearest habitable system, so it shouldn't be seen here.

Just as doubts arose in my heart, I heard An Yun say:

"Two new signals entered the radar, this time they were warships, two patrol ships."

"Within optical range?"

"It's a little far, but I should be able to see it."

Alyssa immediately adjusted the viewfinder perspective, and three glowing dots could be vaguely seen on the virtual screen unfolded in front of the captain's seat.

I expanded the background to the maximum and adjusted the framing mode to make the picture clearer, and only then could I barely see the appearance of the three ships.

No flags or emblems indicating affiliation were seen on the high-speed commercial ship, which led to the presence of flags and emblems on the two warships.

"Main gun charging signal detected."

"Those are two pirate ships. Looks like we've come across a pirate attack scene."

Perhaps the negotiations broke down, and the two cruise ships began firing at the high-speed commercial ship.

An Yun looked back at Alyssa, who barely hesitated.

"Prepare for battle, the pirates are too close to us, they are on our route."

The lights in the bridge instantly turned red, and a combat alarm sounded inside the Swan.

All the people who were resting in the cabin rushed into the bridge and sat in their respective seats.

"Combat ship speed, prepare for test firing."

The ram on the front of the Swan opened up and down, revealing a huge muzzle, and began to accumulate energy.

Long, who was operating the weapon, received the position information from Alyssa, manually fine-tuned the main gun aiming, and pressed the fire button.

The long-range strike that is almost beyond the visual range is very similar to a battleship artillery battle more than ten kilometers away in the ocean.

The beige beam of the light spear cannon pierced through the dark void and approached the butt of a pirate ship from behind.

"The test shot missed and the missile nearly missed."

"Adjust the trajectory, second shot from the main gun."

The ballistic computer on the Swan immediately made adjustments based on the data from the first shot, and soon the second lance cannon was fired.

"Impact confirmed. Hit the enemy ship's port side."

"Start the secondary guns and keep firing." The pirates who had been hit finally reacted. But then again, they were clearly driving a cruiser, which was larger than the light cruiser Swan, but its shield was not strong enough to withstand even a single lance cannon. Moreover, its movements were very slow after it discovered it was under attack. Rather than being a cruiser, its maneuverability was more like that of a destroyer or even a frigate. It was too slow.

After all, it’s a pirate ship, so don’t expect to have any good stuff on it.

At combat ship speed, the Swan demonstrated high maneuverability far exceeding that of ordinary warships. After two rounds of salvos, the engine lights of the enemy fleet had entered the visual range, which made the main and secondary guns more accurate.

At this time, the two pirate ships finally turned around. One of them was half destroyed. Although it had not exploded yet, it had basically lost its combat effectiveness.

The worst hit was actually the high-speed commercial ship. When the Swan came into visual range, the high-speed commercial ship had exploded into a ball of orange flash.

This is what happens when a ship used within a galaxy is attacked by pirates outside the galaxy.

However, Alyssa had no intention of rescuing anyone. It was just that the pirates were blocking the route, and if she didn't change the route, she would have to beat him sooner or later, so she might as well launch a sneak attack before being discovered.

"Enemy ship confirmed to be firing."

"Maneuver to evade!"

The Swan began to turn, and a beam from a twin-mounted main gun flew past the right side of the Swan, followed by a beam that might have been from a secondary gun and flew away, brushing against the edge of the Swan.

Alyssa knew at a glance that the pirates were panicking.

If a warship wants to aim at a new target, it needs to test fire and aim first, and then cooperate with the ballistic computer to hit the target accurately.

The pirates started firing their main and secondary guns continuously as soon as they came up. It was obvious that the sudden appearance of the Swan caught them off guard.

"Keep firing and sink it."

"Multiple engine lights detected. The enemy has released a fleet of aircraft."

Hall, who was not on the bridge, also sent a communication at this time:

"Li Chengxi and I are ready to attack."

"Don't attack for now. There's no need."

Alyssa quickly clicked the keyboard with her left hand and handed the set empty area information to Long.

The fleet that tried to approach and harass the Swan was immediately hit by intensive fire from anti-aircraft guns. Obviously, there were not many people who were capable of bypassing the anti-aircraft fire and challenging the ship alone. At least, no one who had this ability would become a pirate.

At this time, the Swan's main gun opened fire again, and the pirate ship that was still movable was hit in the middle. Optical instruments could clearly see that the Light Lance main gun with extremely strong penetrating ability directly shot a large hole in the center of the pirate ship. Then the pirate ship began to gradually disintegrate due to structural damage.

"Keep firing."

One ship was damaged and the other was broken, but the Swan still had no intention of stopping the fire.

These pirates were unexpectedly tenacious. Even in this situation, quite a few of them were still alive.

That's so bad, let's get rid of it immediately.

The Swan began to slow down and approach the two incapable warships. The anti-aircraft guns and secondary guns were still firing, targeting the complete hull and all parts that looked like escape pods.

Although recyclers are often described as licensed pirates, there is a difference between the two.

The biggest difference is that pirates are not as ruthless as recyclers...

For pirates, as long as the target of robbery hands over the goods, generally speaking, pirates will not kill them all. After all, they can still distinguish between a meal and a drink.

But when recyclers fight pirates, there is no rule that they must kill them all. In the eyes of recyclers, as long as all the pirates are killed, everything they have will be mine. Not only can they get bounties, but also a large amount of spoils. It would be troublesome to have pirates alive at this time, so it would be more convenient to kill them all.

Simply put, old man, explode the gold coins!
