I Woke Up Piloting the Strongest Starship, so I Became a Space Mercenary

Lieutenant-Colonel Serena sent the Marines to the naked space bandit base.

"I thought I'd destroy it without asking."

"You want more data from the base to improve the accuracy of the information.I wish I hadn't been danced by deceptive information. "

With that in mind, manipulate the retrieved drone and proceed with the salvage of what is likely to be used from the destroyed Starfleet - the one who launched from their base to intercept the battle.

"Yes, yes, I know you're angry, but calm down a little."

"... I see. I'll try."

My anger still hadn't subsided.That would be the case. If I succeeded, I'd be dead.Not just me, but Mimi and Elma.I'm sure the Lieutenant-Colonel's command was correct.As a result, the shelling was extremely efficient, and the defense of the Space Bandit Base became almost completely naked in the first shot.Krishna was carrying the anti-aircraft fire in one hand, so the whole shooting range would have been visible.

It just so happens that we're lucky to survive.Krishna still has armor, even if her shields are not removed.Even if the shield had been removed, it might not have crashed so easily, but it might not have.

"By and large, the opponent is Lieutenant-Colonel Imperial Space Force, commander of this operation.He is also our client.You can't eat, hang, beat, slash because you almost died under that command, can you?I can't do anything, so just calm down. "

"I know. That's why I followed your orders, and remember that, right?That's why one day I'm gonna punch you in the face. "

"When you stop... it's the aristocrats, and it's the Marquis."

Elma exhales. I know, I know.From the standpoint, Commander Serena hasn't done anything wrong.Oh, I see. Exactly.

"Not just me, but my crew's life was in danger, and I was forced to go straight in front of the public in an anti-aircraft fire."

I don't suppose you'll be able to object even if they call you a beginner?There were other mercenaries there.In such a scene, you would go straight ahead with a brain-dead and expose the scene of being hit by a ballistic anti-aircraft fire.

"Well, that's... that's right. I hope it doesn't hurt my reputation."

"Is that so?"

Mimi leans her head in front of Elma, who laughs bitterly at me.

"Mimi, the platinum runner sign is by no means light.Platinum Rankers are the absolute strongest of the brave mercenaries.If such platinum runners were exposed to unusual patterns, they could mud the faces of other platinum runners. "

"Haha... you shouldn't be licked."

"The specific gravity of my anger was that Mimi and Elma were in danger, but 70% were forced to perform unusual manoeuvres, but 30%.Just so you know, "

"Yes, yes, I know.You're a good crew captain. "

Elma smacks me in the thighs as she says she can't help it.I still can't stop feeling angry, but it's just going to bother Mimi and Elma. Let's change our minds.

The suppression of the Space Bandit Base was completed shortly before returning to the Reaper Prime Colony.In the meantime, the loot ship was pulled up and temporarily stored in a ship yard near the Reefil Prime colony (just named Space).It seems that the system forces in the Rifil system will guard against thieves, scavengers, and the like.

"Well, I pulled out the expensive parts."

"No, if we leave it in space with no airtightness or anything, it could deteriorate."

Tina nods as she manipulates the tablet terminal and checks the parts of the pulled out ship.

"Whatever the hull frame and armor, the other equipment is basically precision equipment.If it deteriorates, it will be troublesome to repair. "

Whiska is also operating a tablet device.With these two operations, maintenance bots and maintenance drones are busily moving around the warehouse, transporting, scanning parts, and repairing as needed.

What do you say? Is it quality?

"Hmm, you're just making me feel better.Well, it's about the same level of maintenance as the average.Talking about space bandit level burns. "

"You can't compare it to mercenary or regular army equipment."

"I don't think it's strange to use any more equipment.Should we be hunting civilian ships carrying gear and escort ships? "

"That's right. Wonderful."

"Ah, that's right. That kind of equipment is preferred by bosses and other vessels nearby.Unless there's more to it, we won't be able to get that kind of gear across the lower space bandits. "

"I see... by the way, I doubt it."

Tina looks up at me with her hands shut off.

"You're a Space Bandit, aren't you?Even ships are so cheap.You're a mercenary, you're a soldier, you're a hunter.And I wonder if we can eradicate it all. "

"That's a lot of ex-colonists.I wonder if it's the lowest slum-dwellers or the so-called outlaws. "

The degree of political corruption in the Glakkan Empire does not seem to be high due to its leaping mechanical intelligence, but there are still a certain number of people who fall and drop out.The first time I stopped by the world, I met Elma and Mimi, and the Termain Prime had such a compartment.The future of those pushed in is darker than living in those compartments.Once it falls, it's hard to crawl up.Such people gather to form a prison party and work evil to make a living.Above that extension is the transformation into a space bandit.

"I can't crawl up no matter how I scratch my feet.Then they won't stop trying to steal it.The Space Bandits also keep an eye on it and let a small amount of gold pass through the colony.If I think I can use this, I'll pull it out.No one cares if the thugs in the slums or the outlaws are guided by the Space Bandits and they're not smuggling. "

"Ah... I see. No, it was in my old nest too.Some of them say they're dating space bandits, and someday they won't be able to see their faces. "

"Either he was pulled out and turned into a space bandit, or he was cheated and sold away."

"That's a terrible story too...."

"I think becoming a space bandit is the end of the line for him.As far as the ships are concerned, all of their ships are retrofit ships that Panama has captured.As you know the quality, the hairs have grown on civilian vessels.They're mostly free. "

It would be about labor costs, energy to move, ammunition costs.I suppose they even took the parts from the Panamanian captured ship for modifications and repairs.I also hear that some prison colonies are releasing space bandits who were secretly incarcerated through them.It seems that there are rare cases where it is discovered and cleared.

"Well, that's how it is. Unless all the people in the world are perfectly controlled and become utopias or ditopias that do not cause any drop, the Space Bandits will never stop.Temporarily eliminated, but other space bandits grew into the blank territory.If that happens, it will be Ami Motomoki. "

It's a deep-rooted problem.

"I don't know. Oh, that's what I want to hear."

"What's next?"

"Krishna, are you loading special shielding systems?It's not supposed to be our memories of maintenance. "

"Is there anything hidden around the black box generator?"

I lean my neck to the two of you who ask me that.As far as I know, there is no such thing.Even before I came to this world, I was riding around Krishna in full, but I never remembered such a hidden functional thing triggering.Of course, since I came to this world.

"Of course not, but why would you do that?"

"Oh, no, because the anti-aircraft fire from the base was so twisted."

"...? What?"

Were you bent over or anti-aircraft fire?

"I think it was just a laser shell, but it bent to avoid Krishna.I've never seen or heard of laser deflection shields. "

"... really?"

"I don't know, but you didn't know?"

"You were on a boat?"

"No, I thought the shield was strange, and Elma was tilting her neck... but that's what happened."

What the hell happened to that?Just because I didn't know, did Krishna have a laser deflection shielding concealment?Krishna had many mysteries, and there was no other unique ship in SOL.I can't tell you that it's definitely not.

"I really don't think so.I don't know what to do with it.I'm really worried about our stuff. "

"It's an unknown technology.Let's go over Krishna again. "

"I don't know. Even if it's under maintenance, I can check it, right?"

"Oh, I don't care, but I don't know when we're going to launch, so don't break it up."

"Leave it to me."

"Thank you."

That said, they headed for the hanger where Krishna was parked.

Unknown features, laser deflection shields... I think it's strange that I haven't figured that out before.Whatever works, it will take a lot of energy to twist and bend the lasers that are equipped to the Space Bandit Base.If Krishna's energy output drops rapidly as a result of the laser deflection shield being energized, Elma and Mimi will notice.Of course, so am I.

"But when it actually happens, where does that energy output come from?"

There's such a huge energy source and the object that amplifies it.I brought it to Krishna because she asked me to keep it with me as much as possible.I didn't bring it to the cockpit in the boulder, but it must have been left in the dining room.

"I can't tell you..."

In distant countries, we were talking about using that technology on spaceships, and it's not impossible.Anyway, let's go see what it looks like in Krishna.
