Chapter 18

Aim—

Fire!!!

At the same time!

The two enemy starships also opened fire.

But the Radiant, piloted by Xu Zi'an,

was like a slippery loach.

With strange and tricky angles, he easily dodged their shells.

As for the missiles locked on by fire-control radar, he directly controlled the anti-aircraft guns to easily pick them off one by one!

Star battle.

Instantly ignited.

Qin Fuyue expressed that she was in despair.

She had only come out to perform a package delivery mission...

And she had even specifically taken a detour.

She never imagined she would still be scanned by the interstellar pirates' radar; she definitely couldn't win a fight.

She could only run.

But interstellar pirates are not pushovers; if they were truly useless, they wouldn't be everywhere in the universe, and they would have long been wiped out by various factions.

It is said that the strongest interstellar pirate organization in the universe today has strength not inferior to an empire!

Such scattered pirate gangs, while not strong,

are all battle-hardened. Even if Qin Fuyue's starship was stronger than theirs, she had never experienced a real star battle, and being outnumbered, how could she win?

Just as she was in despair, her radar suddenly scanned a starship that had jumped in.

She immediately contacted them via comms; the fact that the comms could connect meant the other party was at least not pirates.

She immediately called for help...

And the other party did indeed come to rescue her.

The first time she saw the Radiant, she was overjoyed.

Although it was also a scout ship, it was evolved purely from scratch...

It must be some big shot!

However...

What did she see?

It was indeed purely evolved.

But it was actually just a first-tier biological scout ship!

What did this mean?

This meant...

The Radiant had originally been bound to just a spaceship!

Because if it had been bound to a mechanical starship, it would have been a first-tier biological scout ship directly, with no need for evolution!

Only by binding a spaceship does one need to evolve from a spaceship into a starship!

She was stunned.

And almost crying.

And even more furious.

Who, who is this person!!!

The communicator is trash to the point of explosion...

At such a short distance, the communication was still intermittent!

The exploration radar couldn't even scan their location...

Heavens!!!

The most critical thing is that he actually dared to come and save her!

Where did this weirdo come from!!!

But yet!

He really did come to save her.

It looked like... he was also doomed to die.

Then Qin Fuyue couldn't just watch this weird captain of the Radiant die like this.

Although his thought process left her speechless and angry...

He had come to save her, after all.

She couldn't bring herself to let the other party die along with her.

She could only suppress the anger that made her heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys ache, roaring at him to run quickly while she blocked for him...

It was sad just to think about it.

She had entered a situation with nine deaths and one life, and now she still had to...

"Ahhhhh! Don't let me survive, or I will definitely make you, the damn Radiant, pay!!!"

Qin Fuyue gritted her silver teeth, raging helplessly inside her starship.

But at this moment.

Suddenly!

Her expression froze!

The Radiant...

D-didn't run???

Not only did it not run, it, it actually initiated an attack first???

She was dumbfounded.

She turned her swan-like neck, and her face, beautiful to the extreme, was filled with blankness.

However.

Next, she saw a scene that made her even more stunned.

Behold!

That infuriating Radiant.

Facing the attack of one biological scout ship and one mechanical scout ship from the interstellar pirates.

It showed not the slightest panic!

It was like a loach, or a dashing swordsman strolling leisurely in the rain.

The rain-like main and secondary cannon shells grazed past its hull.

A missile launched by the fire-control lock radar was directly taken out by three shots...

Yes!

Only three shots!

Precisely picked off by the photon shells of the photon anti-aircraft guns!!!

Look at the Radiant instead!

Main and secondary cannons fired simultaneously.

The main cannon looked like pulse shells, and the secondary cannons were thermal shells.

Pulse shells and thermal shells, all focused on that biological scout ship, without deviation.

And the shooting angle was extremely tricky; at least 70% or even 80% of the shells hit!

'Boom boom boom—'

The whistling of pulse shells and the explosions of thermal shells were incessant.

The most outrageous part was...

That pulse shell actually pierced a hole nearly a meter in diameter through the energy shield of the interstellar pirates' second-tier biological scout ship!

That wasn't all.

After the pulse shell broke through the energy shield, it continued to pierce the armor, and the location of the penetration was, without deviation...

Exactly the opponent's cockpit location...

"T-this is luck, right???"

Qin Fuyue muttered blankly, unable to believe it.

But...

When she saw a dozen or so secondary thermal explosive warheads accurately pour into the hole made by the pulse piercing shell...

And then those warheads detonated violently, directly blowing the cockpit into countless fragments!

One round—

Instant kill!!!

Qin Fuyue was stunned.

Her almond-shaped eyes were wide open, her little mouth agape...

For a moment.

She even completely forgot to escape herself.

But it didn't matter; she didn't have to worry about the interstellar pirates chasing her taking the opportunity to catch up.

Because...

Those interstellar pirates, every single one of them.

Were also completely stunned and dumbfounded!

What the hell is this!!!

Are you playing sniper with me here???

Whose star battle...

Is like yours!

One piercing shell makes a hole in the energy shield.

The remaining dozen explosive shells directly blow the cockpit into fragments???

Not even touching any other part?

Starship headshot kill?

They were stunned and scared silly.

Xu Zi'an, however, didn't care if they were stunned or not.

Seeing that the third-tier mechanical scout ship was so scared its hull shuddered, and then turned around and began to flee frantically...

Aim!

Fire!

Hit!!!

Still with an extremely tricky shooting angle.

First, he blew up one of its engines, causing an explosion at the rear of the mechanical starship, and its speed dropped sharply.

Then came the second engine.

This mechanical starship, with no will to fight and only thinking of fleeing, even though it was a third-tier scout ship, one level higher than the second-tier biological scout ship just now...

It was of no use.

At this moment, it was purely a moving target.

It was impossible to dodge Xu Zi'an's precise kill.

In a mere four rounds.

This third-tier mechanical scout ship was blown up by the Radiant as if it were a landmine.

"Still playing dead there? Hurry up and help me block them!"

Xu Zi'an shouted with dissatisfaction.

When he crippled the mechanical scout ship's engine, those interstellar pirates finally reacted.

One by one, like panicked mice, they began to flee frantically.

But looking at the Brilliance...

It was still as if it had been frozen in place.

Stunned, silly, hanging in place.

A Future Star, mighty, domineering, and full of a sense of technology...

It actually had a bit of a goofy vibe.
