Star Ocean: Starting from the Abandoned Mining Space Station

Chapter 48 Contraband

The dazzling pink color in these injections made Chen Ming feel uncomfortable looking at them.

However, Chen Ming still endured this inexplicable feeling and found the manifest in the corner of the cryogenic box.

These pink injections are a stimulant code-named DP-2.

Although Chen Ming didn't know the meaning of the code name, nor did he know the specific effects of this stimulant.

But Chen Ming knows one thing, that is, all stimulants are strictly prohibited in the commodity trade of the Human Empire.

Ordinary people are not like the army who need to fight the robots and afterglow at the border with high intensity. They need to rely on stimulants to maintain focus and combat ability.

These stimulants that flow into the market basically have only one purpose.

Make people feel the pleasure of using stimulants and become addicted to them.

Chen Ming already had a rough answer to the origin and whereabouts of this batch of powder needles.

At the same time, he also understood that the reason why this caravan, which was disguised or torn off its disguise as pirates, stayed here was to wait for the person to trade these pink injections with them.

The pirate kept telling Chen Ming that there were good things in the dark cemetery, and it was obvious that he wanted Chen Ming to stay.

Waiting for their trading partners to come and avenge them, or simply with the idea of ​​dragging others into the water.

It didn't matter to Chen Ming what the pirate's thoughts were. Anyway, he just planned to clean up the wreckage and leave.

Even if these people may have connections with the military, Chen Ming is not afraid at all.

He had no intention of returning to the prosperous star field through regular means. His identity as an employee of an abandoned mining space station already meant that he would not be able to get along well with the military.

Besides, others don’t know if their ship is equipped with a hyperspace channel system. After leaving the dark cemetery, where can they find the disappeared murderer in this vast universe?

After thinking about it, Chen Ming came to the conclusion that his current situation was no different from before.

I didn't waste any more energy on this aspect and continued to confirm the contents of the other two cargo boxes.

There are two remaining cargo boxes, one is normal wine, and the other is also a low-temperature box with a pink injection inside.

There were about a hundred rods in the two cryogenic chambers in total, and none of them had been shattered by the impact of the previous explosion.

Although the profit from powder needles is not at the same level as other things, Chen Ming has no fondness for this kind of thing, and he doesn't want to get his hands dirty.

Besides, these are powder needles smuggled out by the military at first glance, and the difficulty of getting rid of them is different from those of tobacco and alcohol.

Once he takes action, it is very likely to attract people from the military.

Chen Ming is avoiding the military now, how could he take the initiative to do such a thing.

The combination of these two reasons led Chen Ming to open the lid of the cryogenic chamber directly in space, allowing the powder needle to be exposed to the absolute low temperature of space.

Then, holding the last box of wine, we returned to the ship without any hesitation.

Chen Ming controlled the Iron Ore to turn the ship, and its stern was aimed at the two open cryogenic tanks floating in space.

The spacecraft gradually began to accelerate, and the erupting tail flame burned the cryogenic box and the powder needles inside to ashes.

Chen Ming finally carefully scanned the wreckage of the three ships.

Confirm that all valuable items have been moved back to the spacecraft.

Then it's time to leave.

It would not be a good thing if you continue to stay and meet someone who deals with these people.

I don't know anything about them. If they have combat power that far exceeds that of the Iron Ore, then I'm afraid I don't want to explain it here.

Chen Ming locked the coordinates of the pirate space station on the spacecraft computer.

After adjusting the hull position, the Iron Ore once again entered the acceleration stage.

This time the Iron Mine will directly arrive at the destination of Chen Ming's journey, the pirate space station belonging to the human world.

Just five days after the Iron Ore left the Dark Cemetery.

An unmarked destroyer leapt out of the hyperspace lanes and headed very purposefully into the depths of the dark graveyard.The destroyer stayed in the dark graveyard for three days and then left.

It didn't bring anything with it when it came, but when it left, it took away the wreckage of the three spaceships that had just been destroyed by Chen Ming.

It was obviously impossible for Chen Ming to know about this matter, but even if he knew it, it didn't matter.

He made a point of sweeping around before leaving, looking for anything valuable.

They also found all the electronic equipment in the wreckage of the three spacecraft that might store the Iron Ore's image data and communication data.

Either destroy it on the spot, or take it to the ship and dismantle it into the most basic materials.

All the armor-piercing electromagnetic bombs he fired with the electromagnetic javelin completely penetrated the spacecraft and could not remain in the wreckage of the spacecraft.

If he could still find himself, Chen Ming would have nothing to say.

Time has passed again for two and a half months.

The Iron Ore had bypassed the military outpost half a month ago.

After a long voyage, the Iron Ore is about to arrive in the galaxy where the Pirate Space Station is located.

The Iron Ore has begun to slow down, and it is expected to slow down to the standard navigation speed in the galaxy in five days and reach the edge of the pirate space station galaxy at the same time.

Although he had learned about it in advance, Chen Ming still called up the galaxy map on the spacecraft control panel again, intending to deepen his impression of this galaxy again.

I may need to stay on the pirate space station for a while, and there is no harm in being familiar with the galaxy where the space station is located.

The galaxy where the pirate space station is located is a single star galaxy, and the star is a standard yellow dwarf star.

It has two planets, but neither is habitable.

A barren rocky planet close to the star with extreme temperatures similar to Venus and Mercury.

The other is an ice giant planet similar to Uranus and Neptune that is far outside the habitable zone of the galaxy. It has a blue appearance and no rings.

The pirate space station is set up in the orbit of the ice giant planet.

It is convenient to collect energy materials from ice giant planets that can supply the long-term operation of the space station.

Apart from the stars and planets, there is not much information worth paying attention to in this galaxy.

After all, if this galaxy was too good, it wouldn't be the pirate space station's turn to be established here.

Chen Ming turned off the galaxy map and stretched.

I plan to relax for a long time in the last few days before the spacecraft starts to slow down and reaches its destination.

Don’t do anything, don’t think about anything, just empty yourself so that you can start the next journey in the best possible condition.

After all, what he will face in the next period of time is a human world that is more terrifying than the natural environment of Rui Jupiter.

It is also the lowest level and most dangerous world of pirates in the human world.

Five days later.

The Iron Ore arrived at its destination star system.

The appearance of the pirate space station has been revealed on the sensor.

Its whole body is close to a pie shape.

There are a total of thirty space arms extending from the central circular cake, and most of the buildings are distributed on these space arms.

On the outside of the space arm are a large number of large-area solar panels, which maximizes the utilization of the space outside the space station.

As the spacecraft gradually approached, Chen Ming could see with the naked eye through the porthole in the captain's cabin that there was a shipping guidance light on a space arm.

After discovering Chen Ming's ship approaching, it flashed and guided him into the space station.

Following the guidance of the guidance light, the Iron Ore slowly sailed into the dock of the space station.
