Chapter 323: 323
"Has the distress signal been sent out yet‽"
In the main control room, the captain was covered in sweat while the operator at the side was panicking .
"Our communications have been jammed; all signals are blocked . "
"Impossible, the communication device on Short Horn Star is a high-grade device brought from a galactic civilization . How do these scavengers have such high-grade equipment‽"
The captain was shocked and furious . Galactic long-range communicators had universality and diversity, causing signal blocking devices to be very expensive . Furthermore, the enemy had an 'anti-jump' device that could disrupt the space and prevent jumping .
The captain was devastated . These scavengers are way too well equipped!
The Short Horn Star was unable to escape or request help—it could only last for a short time with its shield and armor . There was still a chance to survive . If the high energy in the area was captured by the detectors Godora set up around the galaxy, security would rush to help .
In the populated Star Zones, the ruling civilization was the main security . The detectors were very sensitive, and some of them had fixed locations, monitoring a large area with artificial intelligence, like a secured perimeter .
At the time, Short Horn Star was flying toward the nearest detector . Since they could not space jump, it would take them about twenty to twenty-five minutes to reach the secured perimeter at full speed . The scavenger spaceships were small and agile but not very powerful in their attacks . The shield could barely last for this amount of time .
However, the enemies boarding the ship were the imminent threat . The guards in the ship were gradually losing, and their target was definitely the main control room .
If the main control room was taken, it would mean that Short Horn Star had lost . At that point, escaping would become a dream .
"Only one-third of the guards are left; they're retreating and can't stop the enemies… The scavengers are coming toward the main control room . Captain, what do we do now?" An assistant looked at the surveillance image and shivered nervously .
"Try to negotiate!" The captain clenched his teeth, turned on the broadcast, and with not much hope, expressed that they were willing to pay them 'passage money' . However, the scavengers did not reply; it was clear that they wanted to take the entire ship .
The scavengers had only blocked the signals outside, so the internal broadcast in the ship could still function .
Guards fell one after another in the surveillance image, and the captain was getting desperate . Suddenly, his expression changed, and he asked, "Quickly, get the passenger list, see if there's someone strong!"
Someone frantically filtered the passenger list, and a few people's identities were displayed . All of them was slightly renowned combat personnel, and among them, the most famous one was the high-level mercenary 'The Green Knight' .
"The Green Knight! It's him! Great!"
The captain was overjoyed . He hastily announced through the broadcast, "Passengers, the situation right now is very urgent . The scavengers are heading toward the main control room . I hope the passengers with combat abilities can help us . This is saving yourselves, too, and I will pay a large monetary reward…"
The current situation was almost desperate . They would only have a chance to escape if the enemies on the ship could be defeated, so the passengers were his last hope .
The captain could only rely on the passengers, especially the renowned Green Knight .
…
Huuu!
The war hammer swung sideways and blew away a large group of the spaceship guards .
Serpent Braid swung the war hammer with one hand, covered in gray Pugilist flames . The bullets and low-level energy beams could only leave white marks on his stone skin—this was his race talent, making him very tough .
He was laughing insolently, charging forward with ease, and forced the guards away . The battle in the ship was heated—the shield outside was covered in explosions too . It was like a song of war .
"Where are we now?"
"Boss, first class is right ahead . Cesoly is waiting for you there . "
Not long after, the metal gate of the first class appeared in front—it was locked . Serpent Braid held onto the handle of the hammer with both hands this time, spun around twice, and bashed the gate . With a loud bang, the gate was blasted away .
Cesoly walked out with a smile and said, "You're finally here . "
"Good job, where's that Godoran?"
"In economy class . "
"Good!" Serpent Braid grinned, turned around, and saw a group of passengers freaking out . He then ordered, "Capture all of them as hostages . Some of you stay here to guard . "
A group of scavengers cuffed small black rings onto the passengers' hands and feet, which then extended automatically into mechanical cuffs . They were very thick and tough, and even normal Supers could not escape them . All of those passengers were taken hostage .
There were a few Supers in these passengers, but the scavengers outnumbered them . After seeing Serpent Braid's strength, any will to resist vanished .
