King of the Stars [Rebirth]

The airlock opened, and when the black mech walked into the bridge again, everyone fell into a deathly silence.Due to the deep cold of the universe and the baptism of war, a thin layer of frost composed of engine oil and blood has condensed on the mecha, as if the breath of death has been frozen on it.The dark red eyes flickered silently, looking down at the entire bridge from a position much higher than the height of a human being, with a full sense of oppression and deterrence.Even the sound of the mecha moving was louder, like thunder, beating on everyone's heart.

"Loyalty." The voice from the electronic amplification equipment was still hoarse. Yan Beichen controlled the mecha, strode to the captain's chair, and his scarlet eyes swept over everyone, "I need you to pledge your loyalty to the death, follow me, step on Flatten everything I want to flatten."

No one dared to move, and the eyes of some crew members flickered. They had never seen such a battle, it was so straightforward and fierce, it overturned all logic and common sense, and it made people fear from the bottom of their hearts.

However, the voice did not stop: "No matter who you were hired by before, what intentions you have, as long as you are loyal to me, you will be a soldier under my command. I will bring you victory, wealth, and glory that others can't match. And Betrayal, only death!"

Surrender or die.An undeniable multiple-choice question.

As soon as that voice fell, another voice sounded first: "Of course, my lord, we will obey all your orders."

Chu Nan's tired and lazy look disappeared completely. He respectfully touched his chest with one hand, bowed his body halfway, and performed a universal etiquette that can only be used when facing superiors.Following his movements, like wheat falling with the wind, everyone bowed down one after another, pressed their palms on the heart, and gave their own answers.Todd didn't seem to have reacted, and stood there in a daze. Fortunately, the red-haired helmsman pulled him in time. In the end, the two also lowered their heads.

No one chooses the wrong answer.One can buy a spaceship at will, has unpredictable and terrifying combat power, and even occupies a desolate star with mineral veins.Regardless of his current strength, choosing to be the first wave of followers is not a stupid decision.

Dark red eyes swept over everyone, Yan Beichen nodded: "Clean the battlefield, recover the mecha, and return."

After simply giving the order, he nodded at Chu Nan: "Come with me."

This order made many newcomers look enviously, Chu Nan didn't change at all, and quickly followed the mecha out.Behind his back, Todd swallowed his saliva and muttered softly, "Is that why you really consider him our leader?"

Kelly snorted: "What? There are spaceships to drive, battles to participate in, and money, what else do you expect?"

Todd scratched his short silver-gray hair, and had to admit that the lunatic in the mecha was indeed terribly powerful, as well as the incomparably gorgeous modified battleship, the satellite orbital gun and the mass projector operating at the same time!Hell, it's unbelievable!When his eyes touched the people around him, he suddenly woke up and shouted loudly: "Three spacewalkers, come with me, let's move the mecha!"

In order to prevent the crew members from having airtight phobia, the passages of the spaceship are generally very spacious, but no matter how wide they are, they will look cramped in front of the mecha with a height of more than 3 meters, which makes the people traveling with him feel infinitely depressed.If it was normal, Chu Nan would have asked the other party's intentions long ago, but now, he didn't mean to speak out rashly, not because of fear, but because of genuine awe.

This is not a man who will be pushed around by others, nor is he too stupid to tell whether his subordinates are reliable or not.Tactic, courageous, deep and forbearing, and possess the determination and strength to achieve the goal.Such a leader deserves his allegiance.

"How about the supplies?"

The deep voice sounded, and Chu Nan immediately lifted his spirits: "Living materials have been piled up in the warehouse, enough for 100 people, equipped with weapons, and sufficient fuel. All the central control cores have been sold, except for the purchase of materials, About 30 bang dollars are left after recruiting the crew.”

"What about the news?" Yan Beichen asked another question.

Chu Nan was stunned for a moment before he understood what the other party was talking about: "The crystal beast has always been a hot topic in the black market. After we released the news, two or three companies expressed their intention to trade, but one of them reacted very strangely. He wanted to buy directly from them." Or contact first...My lord, is this the person you are looking for?"

Of course, Chu Nan could guess that the mysterious knight limited his target to "canine size", and there were level requirements, which probably meant that he knew that there was such a crystal beast, and the other party's answer just verified this point.

"contact details."

"He didn't leave any contact information, he only said that he was in the Freeport of Cormaron, and if he was interested, he could meet there."

"very good."

Finally, a word of praise popped out of Yan Beichen's mouth, and he stopped, and stood in front of the airlock: "You land on the barren star, clean up and bury the garbage, and open up a new camp."

Chu Nan froze for a moment: "Aren't you going back to the voyage?"

"I'm going to Cormaron and bring back a new captain."

The tall mecha stepped into the airtight cabin, the door opened, and he disappeared into the dark universe.

New captain?Chu Nan froze for a moment, and suddenly realized that this new ship is about to change its captain. Is it Lord Beichen's old department?But that's fine, Todd is quite competent as a gunner and strategic planner, but the captain of a medium-sized spaceship?Forget it, they need more reliable candidates.As for him, it's time to think about his position...

Qunxing opened its airtight cabin, the mecha landed heavily on the deck, the hatch opened, and Yan Beichen came out sweating profusely.Using that weird double-star system for high-intensity battles is still too energy-intensive. If it takes a little longer, the prestige that has been hard-won is about to be shattered.

The eyes of the mecha dimmed for a second, then he closed the cockpit and changed back to the pair of "scarlet eyes", and the tone of his speech changed accordingly: "The battle is going well, and there is still room for upgrading the weapon system. "

This guy will become a war madman one day, right?Watching little Campbell triumphantly control the mecha around the ship, Yan Beichen laughed dumbfoundedly: "There will be a chance. But now we need to find a few people and arrange some things. The target is the Freeport of Comaron, and the leap forward. Yes, I still need to buy some things..."

Little Campbell immediately stopped in his tracks: "Where's the ruins?"

"Don't worry, someone will guard for us." Yan Beichen really believed in Chu Nan's loyalty, and at the same time kept the most valuable things by his side, so there was nothing to worry about.

Standing up tiredly, he stretched his shoulders: "I'm going to meditate. I still need to assemble the mecha as soon as possible. 'Nightmare' is not perfect."

In the event of a big battle or a strong enemy, the activation technique in the body will be useless. He must have a more stable and reliable car and strength.

Little Campbell snorted, and controlled "Nightmare" to swagger towards the console.This is also its latest hobby, using mechs to accomplish things that can be done by automated programs.

Ignoring this guy, Yan Beichen walked towards the gravity room.

■

Cormaron Freeport is located within the territory of the Star Alliance. Although it is placed under the administrative jurisdiction of the Star Alliance, its laws and rules are self-contained, and it can be regarded as a border planet with great autonomy.Countless interstellar merchant ships shuttle around the free port. There are large cargo ships that are more than a few hundred meters long, and there are also single-person transport ships that are only tens of meters long. The channel is divided into several areas, and the closer ones will be included in the free port protection category. Any fanatics who cheat within this range will be turned away by Cormaline.And those farther and remote waterways have become a paradise for hunters.

"Honey, do we still hope to hunt something today?" On the console, a pair of long legs were sticking up. The leather boots hadn't been wiped in a long time, and there were some sticky things on the soles of the boots, but those The owner of the leg didn't take it seriously at all, and swayed the toe of the boot carelessly, almost touching the button next to it.

"If you sell that 'dog', you'll get money right away." The black-haired man sitting in the driver's seat snorted, and glanced unkindly at the animal floating in the pot squatting in the corner.

In fact, it was not a dog, but some kind of scaled creature that resembled a large dog. Its six paws were arranged in two rows, and the four eyes on its forehead were weakly closed. I don't know if it was because the nutrient solution was not enough, or something happened. Health problems, in short, seem to be dying.If a knowledgeable person sees it, he will definitely be surprised. This is a high-level crystal beast, and it can be exchanged for a large amount of wealth as long as it is sold.But in this small transport ship, this treasure is stuffed in the corner like a trash can.

Hearing this, the owner of the boots shook his head—to be precise, he shook the colorful felt hat made of unknown fur—and snorted: "Everyone I couldn’t find it, and if I lost this little thing, it would be even more difficult. And you also know that high-level crystal beasts are not easy to get rid of.”

It's also the hardest thing to do.Because of the popularity of crystal beasts, unless they are pirates with their own spaceships or armed forces, even if any small bounty hunter catches a crystal beast, he can only resell it to a middleman at a low price, and the middleman will sell it on his behalf.There is a big price difference here and there, and if you meet a black market dealer who is not particular about it, it is possible to steal money and kill him.Without full confidence, it is indeed difficult to make a move.

But it is really a headache to keep this thing, but also to feed it, and to feed a few living people.

At this moment, there was a sound of clanging metal from behind, and a big red-haired man with rough steel prosthetics stepped into the cab: "Captain, that old lunatic Han is mad again, can I buy some ingredients first? Protein ingredients also……"

"Damn it... where is the prey..." The man in the felt hat moaned, covered his eyes with his long and thin fingers, and spread out on the chair like a dead dog.

The navigator beside him opened his eyes wide: "Wait, what is that?"

"Huh?" The remaining two followed the sound and saw a high-speed medium-sized transport ship appearing on the screen. Naturally, they had seen this kind of ship a lot, but it was rare to see such a modified model armed to the teeth. , and visible to the naked eye, the ship was slowing down and flying in their direction.

enemy?This is not a guy they can deal with now!The captain immediately sat up straight: "Our coordinates have been exposed?"

"Probably not." The navigator replied calmly, "Our current berthing position is very hidden. And to deal with this broken ship, there is no need for warships at all, unless it is for other things..."

He glanced at the jar in the corner, showing some annoyance.Two days ago, the guy who asked about the 'dog-shaped crystal beast' appeared again, saying that he was coming to Cormaron Freeport, and informed that the buyer was a 15 or 6-year-old boy.Hearing this news, they naturally guessed who the so-called "buyer" was, and then gave a one-way receiving channel. As long as the confirmation is correct, they can bring people back to the spaceship.But if there are enough means, with this channel, they can indeed obtain their information in reverse.

Was he betrayed by that kid, or was that kid himself kidnapped?

However, there was no time to judge, something had popped out of the black battleship, and it was flying towards this side at an accelerated speed.Is that... infantry armor?No, it should be a small mecha!This is to intercept them!

The leather boots fell to the ground with a bang, and Barnett grabbed the control lever of the naval gun: "They dare not fire! Leave quickly, and I will cover! Grew, watch the crew!"

The brim of the hat that had been hanging down was raised a little, revealing a pair of ice blue eyes as sharp as a falcon.
