Chapter 37: Catch the Strong?
The space pirates attacked the space station, and a large number of players were shocked. A large number of warships took off and left the space station. A large fleet of NPCs rushed out of the siege against the pirates plundering gunboats.
Seeing this, Fang Ning quickly communicated with the space station command tower to apply to leave the space station, passed instantly, and quickly ordered the fleet to set sail and escape to the other side.
At this moment, the system log flashed wildly, and a red burst task popped up. A woman with blonde hair and blue eyes in a white coat could not hide her plump curves appeared on the screen, saying anxiously:
"Sir Fang Ning, we are a scientific research ship of the Bojiang Star Academy of Sciences. Please escort us to leave safely and escape the pursuit of pirates."
This is a designated task, and I don’t know how they know they are here. Anyway, this woman who seems to be a scientist directly called him and asked him to escort him, which made Fang Ning speechless.
This designated task is almost impossible to refuse. Once it is rejected, what awaits him is a warning from the imperial authorities and a demotion penalty.
He made a decision almost instantly, raised his hand and said loudly:
"Where is your scientific research ship? Keep up with me."
As soon as he finished speaking, a team application popped up in front of him, and a green dot immediately appeared on the small map, not far from him.
"YY, don't you even bring a guard!"
Fang Ning was speechless, but he still sent two destroyers to pick up the scientific research ship that had just left the berth of the space station.
The length of this research ship is longer than that of the frigate, about one hundred meters. The head of the ship extends out two pieces of pliers like a shrimp. There is a transparent ball in the central depression, and the bridge of the research ship is there.
The scientific research ship was taken over, three frigates protected it in the center, and six destroyers cut off and quickly stayed away from the war-torn space station.
But what surprised him was that when these star pirate fleets attacked the space station, they had enough energy to split a team of more than 40 gunboats and chased them. From a distance... a communication from the pirate came over, and connected with a fierce pirate with one blindfolded eyes. Seeing Fang Ning shouting:
"Boy, hand over the scientific research ship, grandpa promises not to hit you."
Fang Ning knew that this was his own treasure - the mask of the terrifying pirate played a role. He was not actively attacked by any space pirate when carrying it, and at the same time, the reputation of any space pirate group +1.
Otherwise, according to the style of these pirates firing when they see people when they come out of the wormhole, they would not have the time to threaten him. If they didn’t have this treasure, they would definitely say hello first when they meet.
If you hadn't taken on this sudden mission, Fang Ning might be able to communicate with this group of space pirates and leave through the wormhole now, but unfortunately there is no if...
He touched his head and shook his head:
"I'm sorry, I need to protect them."
"Then you are seeking death!"
The negotiations broke down and the treasures lost their effect. As soon as the temporary communication was collected, dozens of pirate gunboats from afar opened fire at the same time, and fusion nuclear missiles were released to attack them.
"YY, that's the go!"
In the early stage, the missile poses a great threat to the warship. Fang Ning had to use God's perspective again and personally control the weapons on the warship to aim at the flying missiles and start firing them.
Generally speaking, it is best to use point-defense weapons against missiles or space fighters, which are commonly known as anti-aircraft cannons. This is a weapon for professional defense against such attacks, but it does not mean that other weapons cannot defend against them, but it is just that their efficiency is very low.
Fang Ning took over all the turrets on the ship, calculated the trajectory of the missile through the assistance of the combat computer, and fired and intercepted it in advance.
Barrages cut through the void against the trajectory of the missile, waiting for the missile to fly over as if they were waiting for the missile to fly over. With the loud bang of the sky, large fireballs exploded in the night sky.
At the same time, he also controlled the destroyer's excess firepower to gather and launch a counterattack against the pirate gunboats that were firing back and forth around them more than ten kilometers away.
The six destroyers had twelve medium-sized weapon slots, one slot and two cannons, which were much more powerful than small weapons. Twenty-four fire-catching hits, and a gunboat was sunk.
Slowed seven or eight plundering gunboats in a row, and the pirates began to change their tactics and gathered all the gunboats directly into a wave and rushed towards them.
Fang Ning responded calmly, controlled the fleet to fight and retreat, and flew kites faster than gunboats.
After losing five gunboats again, the pirate commander seemed a little angry and did not even bother him. He split half of the gunboats around the other side and rushed to the scientific research ship protected by three frigates outside the battlefield.
Seeing this, Fang Ning immediately mobilized the fleet back and ordered the frigate to approach him. The two merged and returned to their original state.
Especially as he continued to destroy gunboats, the pirates had less than thirty gunboats without realizing it, and they no longer had the advantage.
But the pirates didn't seem to notice this and were still launching a fierce attack on him.
The commander of this pirate fleet has a very capable commanding ship, only knows simple tactics, and cannot use a slightly more refined tactic, let alone gather fire to siege a fine job. Until now, the pirate gunboat has lost more than a dozen. Although Fang Ning's warship was more or less damaged, none of them have sunk.
In the tenth minute, a guard cavalry, the flagship of the pirate team, was hit by two waves of shelling, and the shield was destroyed on the spot, and the ship caught fire.
At this time, he suddenly wanted to retreat, but found that his subordinates of more than 40 gunboats were unknowingly only a dozen left, and each of them were damaged.
"withdraw!"
If you stay in the green mountains, you will not be afraid of burning firewood. The pirates will be more decisive than anyone else in this way.
The pirate retreated, but Fang Ning did not chase him, but instead accelerated away from the battlefield. He ran all the way for almost an hour and came to the sky above a barren planet. The fleet stopped on the back of the planet and the moon.
When the unmanned repair robot was released to repair the damaged warship, Fang Ning connected the scientific research ship, and was the beautiful blonde lady with blue eyes before, he said:
"The pirates have left. After you rest for a while, you can find the star gate from the other side to leave."
He had no interest in asking the pirates why they were chasing a scientific research ship, he was just passing by.
However, things didn't go as he wished. The blonde lady said apologetically:
"Sorry to get you involved, but we may also have to trouble you to escort us to a place."
“Where?”
“Galaxy MR-73188.”
“Galaxy MR-73188? Where is this?”
"A galaxy inside the Erim Nebula, we have scientific research tasks there, you..."
"etc!"
Fang Ning interrupted her directly and said:
"Ms., I still have important things to do. You may be able to reply to Jiangxing first. It is better to ask the Star District Government to send an Imperial fleet to escort you over."
"Listen to the sergeant,"
The blonde lady suddenly became serious and she said loudly:
"I ordered you to escort us to the MR-73188 galaxy, now."
