703 – Selling Warships ?

TL : GoldenLung

“I agree.” Ding Zhuohan immediately said, “This is the most reasonable, and is also the most beneficial solution for us. It seems like the pirates really have their own rules. In the exchange center nobody is allowed to fight, and the pirates usually don’t kill each other when they’re captured. We can make use of all of this. I think that our captain’s method is the best. We have antimatter missiles threatening from the sky, so nobody will attack us easily. Also, they don’t know our true strength.”

Upon hearing the two’s words, the others nodded their heads. This was a group of fearless youths. Their average age was only 16 years old. They were at an age where they were full of youth while also having outstanding abilities. Without much hesitation, they discussed the process carefully and came up with a plan.

Ding Zhuohan would lead 18 people to stay behind and ensure that they were able to control the 33 Sky Wings warship. Lan Xuanyu would take the remaining people and pilot the few damaged Purple Flame pirate warships to the Third Exchange Center to trade.

The two pirate ships in pristine state would be left behind for the time being. Ding Zhuohan was in charge of watching over them and waiting for news from Lan Xuanyu’s side.

In the world of pirates, a Meteor-class assault warship was an extremely strong warship. With the 33 Sky Wings warship acting as a deterrent in space, it was much safer than traveling alone. After all, a warship had to be in space to display its true combat power.

On the way towards the small planet where the Third Trading Center was located, they encountered a few small pirate groups but Lan Xuanyu didn’t give the order to attack this time. When those small pirate groups saw so many warships from afar, they didn’t know what was going on and immediately ran away after discovering them.

The reason why Lan Xuanyu didn’t give the order to attack was very simple. This was their first time looting a pirate warship, and they weren’t familiar with the pirate world yet. For safety’s sake.

After the lesson at Proto Dragon Planet, although it didn’t change the fact that Lan Xuanyu liked to seek wealth in the middle of danger, he was relatively more stable. This was growth.

Finally, their destination was in sight, and Lan Xuanyu immediately gave the order to make preparations. The pirate warships that were relatively intact could be remote controlled and guide the damaged ones. After a final check, Lan Xuanyu brought Bai Xiuxiu, Tang Yuge, Qian Lei, Liu Feng, Lan Mengqin, Yuanen Huihui, Bing Tianliang, Lin Donghui, Yutian, and the rest onto the pirate warship.

They had mobilized a total of 14 people this time, and the reason why it was 14 was also the result of everyone’s discussion. This was because when a Sky Wing mecha transformed into a space fighter, they could bring one person inside. Although it was a little crowded, it was guaranteed that they could fly. And a Sky Wing mecha had the ability to break through the atmosphere and fight directly in space. This way, even if they encountered danger, they would have a higher chance of escaping unscathed with the help of Sky Wing mechas. At the same time, after the transaction was completed, they could return to the 33 Sky Wings warship without the need for it to land.

Lan Xuanyu finally decided that they would not land the warship. The greatest advantage was its deterrence effect. A warship that landed on the ground was useless and was worse than a soul cannon. Only in space were they the safest.

The 33 Sky Wings warship brought the two most intact Purple Flame Pirates with it and stopped in space.

The remaining ones included a damaged Meteor-class assault warship and three Remnant-class reconnaissance warships.

There was originally one more reconnaissance spaceship, but the damage was too severe and it was very difficult to bring it along during the journey, so Lan Xuanyu simply abandoned it. This way, they would be more mobile and save energy.

Lan Xuanyu brought his team and boarded Shen Junjie’s flagship. Although this Meteor-class assault warship was quite damaged, it was still quite a good warship. Most of the functions of the damaged areas were still operational. He guided the other three Remnant-class surveillance spaceships and slowly landed in the direction of the Third Exchange Center.

At this moment, other than Lan Xuanyu’s team of 14, there was also a slightly stooped pirate in his 50s standing in the main control room.

In the world of space pirates, people of his age would be eliminated. Survival of the fittest had always been the law of the world of pirates, but this person wasn’t eliminated because he was the vice captain of the Purple Flame Pirates, the most important think tank under Shen Junjie.

The reason why they didn’t bring Shen Junjie along was mainly because they didn’t want to complicate matters, but they weren’t familiar with the Third Exchange Center. After taking a look at the pirates, they specially picked the oldest one. Being older meant that he knew more. It was said that he had been a space pirate for 30 years and was very sensible.

At this moment, he was explaining the rules of the pirate world to Lan Xuanyu and the rest.

“It’s very normal to trade warships in the pirate world, and warships are also the biggest trading items. All the pirate teams will definitely be interested. Although our Purple Flame Pirates’ warships are not outstanding, they are still warships. There is also a factory over at the Third Exchange Center that specializes in modifying warships. As long as one’s willing to spend money to modify them, our warships are not bad,” Liu Guiting whispered into Lan Xuanyu’s ear.

This old pirate had actually been observing these pirates that he had never seen before. From their voices, he could tell that these pirates were young and didn’t seem to know much about the world of space pirates. But with his experience, he knew that the more inexperienced the pirates were, the more terrifying they were because they were fearless and didn’t even abide by those rules.

The Purple Flame Pirates were very unlucky to have fallen into the hands of such a new pirate team. Even if the other party killed them all, Liu Guiting wouldn’t have been surprised. Hence, he was very cooperative and observed these pirates at the same time.

There weren’t many of them, but they were definitely not weak. Furthermore, their warship had antimatter missiles! What were antimatter missiles? To pirate warships, they were definitely the most precious and powerful weapons, existences that could decide victory and defeat in space battles. Could any pirate crew have them?

It could be seen that this pirate crew, which only had one warship, definitely had a huge force backing them. Although they didn’t know which force it was, they didn’t hesitate to make a move even after hearing the name of Red Horn City. This was clear.

Hence, Liu Guiting was very cooperative. He wanted to make himself as useful as possible so that he wouldn’t be killed.

“En, under normal circumstances, how do we trade warships?” Lan Xuanyu asked in a low voice. He felt that this mask wasn’t good enough because there wasn’t a voice changer inside. He would have to work on this problem when he returned after completing the mission. Otherwise, it would be very difficult to conceal their age.

Liu Guiting replied honestly, “It’s very simple. There is a place where warships are parked at the Trading Center. The seven Pirate Lords have issued a joint order that no pirate team is allowed to use violence in the Trading Center, otherwise, all the pirates will attack them together. Hence, there isn’t a problem with safety. As long as we enter the planet’s atmosphere, we will be safe. Also, no one dares to break the rules near the Trading Center because there are many pirate teams that will pass by there and in the vicinity. Once there is a battle, no one knows if there will be other pirate teams behind. Hence, after the transaction is completed, most pirate teams will leave as soon as possible. So, we just need to park the warships properly and release the news in the trading center. We will have to include the number of warships and their situation, and get someone to appraise them. As long as the results are satisfactory, we can proceed with the transaction.”
