Chapter 324: Cosmic Pirates, The Spaceship is Robbed!
TL: You Yang
PR: Etude
Nine Wheels Planetary System
After several transfers, Ye Tian took another cosmic spaceship flight towards Blue River Star. The flight he was on was quite ordinary and not very fast, taking about an hour to reach Blue River Star.
The interior of the cosmic spaceship was somewhat similar to the airplanes of his previous life, with numerous seats. Although there were many passengers, the vast space of the spaceship made it feel not crowded.
Due to time constraints, Ye Tian didn’t bother to book a private cabin on the cosmic spaceship and directly chose a seat in the hall, one next to the spaceship’s window.
Beside him sat a little girl, about ten years old.
Ye Tian used his talent copying ability to assess the girl’s talent, finding it impressive – a Dawn level cultivation talent. However, due to her young age, she hadn’t started cultivating yet.
“Big brother, are you going to Blue River Star too?”
The little girl suddenly asked.
“Yes!”
Ye Tian replied.
“Big brother, my name is Xiao Meng. I’m also going to Blue River Star. I used to study in another place, but now I’m going to study on Blue River Star. Both of my parents work there!”
The little girl spoke in a very innocent tone.
Ye Tian chatted with the little girl, Xiao Meng, for a while. Although many of her questions were simple and naive, Ye Tian didn’t show any impatience, instead finding a sense of childlike innocence.
Sitting on the other side of Xiao Meng was her grandfather, who was also a martial warrior with a strong cultivation at the Saint level.
From their conversation, Ye Tian learned that Xiao Meng was not originally from Blue River Star but was a resident of a planet in the Nine Wheels Planetary System. Her parents, working for a big company on Blue River Star and owning a property there, decided to have their granddaughter live with them.
Compared to smaller planets, Blue River Star naturally had better development prospects. Residents of smaller planets usually had limited futures, even if they were talented, due to the lack of resources, making it difficult to become a powerful warrior.
For this reason, many residents of smaller planets in the galaxy were eager to move to more powerful planets.
This was similar to people from rural areas in his previous life desperately moving to cities, buying properties, and sending their children to city schools for better education.
The principle was similar, and a large planet like Blue River Star indeed offered better development opportunities.
“My friend, my granddaughter is a bit curious and talks a lot. Please don’t mind!”
Xiao Meng’s grandfather apologized through telepathic communication.
“Your granddaughter is very cute. Why would I be upset?”
Ye Tian smiled slightly, reassuring him.
Xiao Meng’s grandfather was worried because he knew of Ye Tian’s Emperor-level cultivation. Although he wasn’t sure of Ye Tian’s exact strength, an Emperor was definitely not someone they could afford to offend.
Some Emperor-levels were known for their quirky temperaments, and a few simple questions could provoke them. He was afraid of offending Ye Tian with his granddaughter’s chatter.
Now that Ye Tian had responded kindly, he felt relieved that Ye Tian wouldn’t find his granddaughter annoying.
Half an hour later,
The cosmic spaceship arrived under a starry sky, traveling at one-tenth the speed of light.
Since it was an intra-galactic flight and not traveling between galaxies, the spaceship couldn’t use space warp for travel. This was one of the traffic rules for cosmic spaceships in the galaxy.
Long-distance routes crossing many galaxies required space warp, but it was not cost-effective for intra-galactic travel because of the high energy consumption, which wouldn’t be offset by the ticket price. No cosmic spaceship company would use space warp within a galaxy.
The speed of the cosmic spaceship was actually very fast, much faster than the travel speed of many God level beings.
Suddenly, the normally smooth-sailing spaceship jolted, causing many passengers to lose their balance.
At that moment,
Panic arose among many passengers inside the cosmic spaceship.
“Did we hit a meteorite?”
“Even if we hit a small meteorite, it shouldn’t be a problem. The spaceship has defensive formations, and its material is sturdy enough to pulverize small meteorites without damaging the spaceship. Unless it’s a large meteorite. But the spaceship has an automatic avoidance program. How could it hit a large meteorite? Could the system have malfunctioned?”
“Why do I feel like the faces of the spaceship staff have changed? Could it be that something has happened?”
Many passengers started to panic.
If it wasn’t impossible to disembark in the cosmic starry sky, they would have been clamoring to get off and ask for refunds.
“Grandpa, I’m scared!”
Xiao Meng clung to her grandfather’s clothes, visibly nervous.
Xiao Meng’s grandfather, with a grave expression, knew as a Saint level warrior that the spaceship had not collided with a meteorite, but was under attack.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The cosmic spaceship was hit again, sustaining damage and slowing down.
Eventually,
the spaceship was forced to halt in the starry sky, unable to move further as the path ahead was completely blocked.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
A swarm of small cosmic ships approached, surrounding the passenger spaceship.
“It’s cosmic pirates!”
Xiao Meng’s grandfather extended his senses and saw the situation outside, his face turning pale. Other martial warriors in the cabin also realized what was happening.
“Grandpa, are the cosmic pirates those man-eating monsters from the stories you told me? I’m really scared!” Xiao Meng’s big eyes were brimming with tears, clearly frightened by the pirates.
“Don’t be afraid, Xiao Meng. This spaceship has a guard squad. They’ll surely deal with these pirates!”
Her grandfather tried to comfort her.
Outside the cosmic spaceship, in the starry sky,
Ten Emperor-level guards and over a hundred Saint level guards emerged, their eyes fixed on the surrounding small ships.
“This is a Qi Long Company spaceship. Please show some respect,”
the head of the guards spoke out.
“What’s Qi Long Company to us? Brothers, kill these guards, but remember not to destroy the spaceship. We can’t rob it then!” a pirate leader commanded.
Boom!
A barrage of attacks covered the starry sky.
“Attack!”
ordered the head of the guards, charging forward.
The battle in the starry space began.
Initially, the Emperor-level guards withstood the small ships’ cannon fire, but suddenly, a column of electricity blasted one of the Emperor-level guards into smithereens.
“Not good, it’s a Star Level Plasma Railgun!”
The other guards were terrified.
This was an attack capable of destroying powerful Emperor-levels, only resistible by Emperor-levels of three stars or higher.
Such powerful technological weapons were not typically possessed by ordinary cosmic pirates.
This time, the attackers were not just any small cosmic pirate group, but a significantly stronger one.
The other guards, fearing attack, started to flee in different directions, but were quickly targeted and obliterated by the Star Level Plasma Railguns.
“Someone blow a hole in this spaceship!”
ordered the pirate leader.
The Star Level Plasma Railgun aimed at the spaceship and fired an electric column.
Just then,
a barrier protected the spaceship.
Boom!
The electric column hit the barrier, leaving the spaceship unscathed.
“Leave and live; otherwise, die!”
A voice permeated the starry sky.
“Hmph, who’s trying to bluff? All Star Level Plasma Railguns, aim at this spaceship. I don’t believe this defense can hold!” the pirate leader shouted angrily.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Columns of electricity rained down, but just as they were about to hit the spaceship, a wave of spatial fluctuation spread out.
In an instant,
space froze, and the plasma railgun attacks were suspended in the starry sky.
At this moment, everyone was stunned.
Inside the cabin,
Ye Tian rose from his seat, his figure moving swiftly as he left the spaceship’s cabin and appeared in the outer starry sky.
“He…”
Xiao Meng’s grandfather was astonished.
…
See? This is what I’m talking about!! We need more moments like these.
