"Buzz——"

A sudden and strange sound woke Lu Yuan from his meditation.

Opening his eyes, Lu Yuan's pupils shrank slightly.

I saw that the originally bright and empty training room was now surrounded by a blur of red, and in the middle of the room, a huge pale skull quietly emerged.

This skull also wore a black one-eyed blindfold on its face. When it saw Lu Yuan, it immediately let out a harsh laugh of "Jie Jie Jie".

"This is a virtual image?!"

After a brief period of surprise, Lu Yuan quickly discovered the truth about the red light and the skull, and his expression returned to calm.

Apart from scaring people, there is no real harm.

But the practice room was so messy that it was obviously impossible to continue practicing.

Lu Yuan turned around and walked out of the training room. Only when he left the door did he realize that there were also flashing red lights everywhere outside the training room, and there were also one-eyed skulls that suddenly appeared from somewhere from time to time.

The lighting and audio-visual systems of the entire spacecraft seem to have been completely occupied by these two things.

Listening to the countless strange laughter that came and went, and the seeping red light that dazzled people's eyes wherever they went, Lu Yuan couldn't help but feel a little irritable.

Reach out and take out your personal terminal, tap the terminal screen.

"Lu Feng! Did you secretly use the spaceship's optical brain to watch the virus in the movie?!"

This shouting has a miraculous effect.

A few seconds passed after he finished shouting, and the red light and skull in front of Lu Yuan's eyes disappeared.

The interior of the spacecraft regained its original peace and tranquility.

Lu Yuan's face softened slightly and he turned around, facing Lu Feng who was standing in front of him expressionlessly.

The corners of his eyes seemed to twitch slightly when he looked at himself.

"What just happened?"

Lu Yuan seemed to have forgotten what he had said to Lu Feng before, and asked Lu Feng the reason naturally.

Lu Feng took a breath and replied in a deep voice: "The spacecraft system was attacked by some external attacks, and a virus took the opportunity to be implanted, but it has been repaired now."

"External attack?"

Lu Yuan frowned slightly, "Who attacked us?"

Lu Feng looked into Lu Yuan's eyes and softly said two words.

"Star Thief."

"Star Thief?!"

Lu Yuan's eyes narrowed subconsciously.

He is no stranger to this term.

Before setting off, he had done some homework on the various situations he might encounter during long-distance interstellar travel.

Among them, star thieves are one of the troubles that travelers in the starry sky least want to encounter and are most likely to encounter.

These extremely vicious starry sky desperadoes who lick blood with their swords are like jackals wandering in space. Once a passing spacecraft is targeted by them, it means that they are about to face endless troubles.

They will continue to carry out various attacks and harassment on the spacecraft, forcing the spacecraft to change its course.

Then it uses up the power of the spacecraft little by little, and when the time is right, it bites it hard.

Forcibly blast open the outer shell of the spacecraft, steal all valuable things in the spacecraft, capture all the people in the spacecraft and sell them as slaves, or kill them directly.

In the end, the entire spacecraft will be towed away by them and dismantled cleanly, leaving nothing behind.

Among the missing and damaged spacecraft statistics compiled by Duoling every year, those caused by encountering star thieves account for almost 70% of the total.

Lu Yuan initially wanted to go with the Yongri Chamber of Commerce's fleet, the main purpose was to prevent encountering star thieves.

The fleet of a top chamber of commerce like the Yongri Chamber of Commerce would not dare to provoke the Star Thief Group, which has an average defense force.

Facts have proved that the first half of the journey was indeed safe and smooth, but I didn't expect that what was coming was inevitable. Only two days after leaving the Yongri Merchant Fleet, I encountered the Star Thieves.

Although he knew that the crisis was present, Lu Yuan was not too panicked.

He walked quickly to the observation deck of the spacecraft and looked out through the porthole.

In the dark and silent starry sky, dozens of spaceships, including his own, were flying silently.

Without exception, every spacecraft has an energy shield on its surface.

Other than that, everything was normal, nothing unusual, and Lu Yuan saw no trace of the spacecraft belonging to the Star Thief Group.

"You can't see them."

Lu Feng walked up to him and looked out of the boat with him.

"They are hiding in the dark now and will not come out for the time being.

By invading the defenses of the spacecraft's surface system, they tell you that you have been targeted by them, forcing you to open the protective cover and consume the energy of the spacecraft in advance.

This is their usual method.”

Lu Yuan looked quietly towards the outside of the ship for a while, then withdrew his gaze and said calmly: "What did the people on the other ships say?"

After breaking away from the Yongri Chamber of Commerce's fleet, their fleet became a new small group.

As far as Lu Yuan knows, this fleet now also has a core leader.

The rest of the fleet had paid him a certain fee in advance.

Now when something happens, the leader of the fleet has the responsibility to find a way to solve it.

"I have contacted them. The Amethyst Chamber of Commerce just asked us to open the protective shield and follow the team."

Lu Feng replied: "But they should have already called for reinforcements. What I'm more worried about now is"

Lu Feng frowned and said: "The Amethyst Chamber of Commerce may choose to temporarily change the route because of the star thieves. If this happens, we don't know how many days it will take to reach Lilva Star."

After Lu Yuan listened to Lu Feng's analysis, he nodded expressionlessly.

He is in a bad mood now.

I thought I would be able to reach my destination in a few hours, but now because of the star thief, the time suddenly became long and uncertain.

But he didn't have any good solutions.

In this current situation, we can only follow the large army.

If you leave privately.

A small one-person spaceship like theirs cannot fly very far before it will be eaten by star thieves until there is not even a bit of bones left.

"Although it is not a particularly rare event, it was so unlucky that it happened to me the first time I went out.

I still feel like a cuckoo is around me

Bad luck is always around."

Lu Yuan sighed in his heart.

In the following time, Lu Yuan had no intention to continue practicing.

After thinking about it, I simply hid in the training room and took out a lot of messy things I bought at Ellis Trade Plaza.

Activate the [Extraordinary Contact] skill on the [Occult Scholar (Extraordinary)] career panel to summon the gray vortex with unknown connections, and then throw each piece into the vortex one by one.

"[Extraordinary Contact], experience value +1"

"[Extraordinary Contact], experience value +1"

Lu Yuan counted the skill experience value of [Extraordinary Contact] on the career panel and jumped up little by little, just to pass the boring time.

When he threw fruit into the whirlpool before, every time after throwing it, the guy at the other end of the whirlpool would give him a clean fruit core.

Now this pile of bits and pieces seems to be almost thrown away, but there is not even a damn reaction.

Oh, not really.

In the middle of the road, a few bottles of medicine with unknown ingredients, unknown effects, and a bit of a smell, pulled from an unknown stall, were thrown into the whirlpool.

A few wisps of green smoke came out of the vortex, and it looked like the smelly farts released after a bad stomach.

"Whoosh——"

The pile of things was about to be sacrificed, so Lu Yuan casually grabbed a black and hard object, whether it was a bone joint or a stone, and gently threw it into the gray vortex.

After this "sacrifice", his [Supernatural Contact] has been raised to lv2, and the professional experience of [Occult Scholar (Supernatural)] has also increased a bit, and he is not far away from being promoted to the next level.

As I was thinking about it, the gray vortex in front of my eyes gradually shrank.

Lu Yuangang was ready to carry out the next round of summons and sacrifice seamlessly.

But at this moment

"puff--"

There was a sound like someone spitting out the seeds after eating a watermelon. At the moment when the gray vortex was about to disappear, a bright thing suddenly flew out of the vortex.
