“Did the distress signal go out?!”

In the main control room, the captain was sweating profusely, while the operators beside him looked panicked.

“Our communications are being jammed. All signals are being intercepted.”

“How is that possible? The communication system of the Duanjiao Star was bought from a civilization at the galaxy level. How could these scavengers have such a high-level jammer?!”

The captain was furious. Interstellar wide-area communication has universality and technical diversity, which makes jamming equipment very expensive. Moreover, the enemy also has an "anti-jump" device that disrupts space and restricts warp. The captain was devastated.

Do these scavengers have to be so professionally capable?!

The Duanjiao Star couldn't escape or call for help. It was entangled by the scavengers. Relying on the ship's shields and armor, it could last for a short time. There was still hope of escape. Perhaps the high-energy reaction here would be captured by the Godora's detectors deployed in the universe, and the guard team would come to help.

In prosperous star regions, the ruling civilization would maintain the starfield's security within its jurisdiction. The detectors are very sensitive, and some are fixed in position. Artificial intelligence monitors them in real time, equivalent to a restricted area, covering a very large range. If a situation similar to that of the Duanjiao Star occurs, they can move towards the detector, indirectly sounding the alarm. Generally speaking, the signal strength of the detector is military-grade, and there is a high probability of breaking through the jamming, or the alert range is greater than the jamming range.

At this time, the Duanjiao Star was flying towards the nearest detector. It couldn't warp, so it could only fly directly. At full speed, it would take about 20 to 25 minutes to reach the restricted area. The scavenger ship was small and agile, with strong interference, mediocre attack power, and a shield that could barely support it for this period.

But the boarding enemies were the most pressing crisis. The bodyguards on the ship were retreating steadily. The enemy's target was definitely the main control room.

Once the main control room was taken, it would be equivalent to the fall of the Duanjiao Star, and the only way to escape would be a pipe dream.

"Only one-third of the defending bodyguards are left. They are retreating, they can't stop the enemy… It's over, the scavengers are coming to the main control room, Captain, what do we do now?" An assistant looked at the monitor screen, trembling with nervousness.

"Try to negotiate!" The captain gritted his teeth and turned on the broadcast, hoping to pay a toll, but he didn't get a response from the scavengers, who clearly wanted to swallow the entire ship.

The scavengers jammed the outward signals, but the internal broadcast on the ship was an independent line and could still be used.

In the picture, one guard after another fell. The captain was anxious, and suddenly his expression changed. He asked urgently, "Quick, pull up the passenger list, are there any powerful guys!"

Soon someone screened the passenger list, and the identity information of several people was displayed. They were all combatants with some reputation, among whom the most famous was the high-level mercenary [Green Knight].

"Green Knight! It's him, that's great!"

The captain was overjoyed and hurriedly turned on the broadcast, saying: "Passengers, the situation is very urgent. The scavengers are rushing to the main control room. I hope passengers with combat capabilities can help. This is also saving yourselves. I will pay a high reward…"

The current situation could only be treated as a dead horse. They had to repel the boarding enemies to have any hope of escape. The passengers were the last straw.

The captain could only pin his hopes on the passengers, especially the Green Knight, who was famous, and prayed secretly.

…

Whoosh—

The warhammer swept across, bursting out with shocking force, and a large group of spaceship guards were blown away.

Shebian wielded the warhammer with one hand, non-stop, his whole body shrouded in a gray martial arts aura. Bullets and low-energy beams hit him, leaving only white marks on his stone skin. This was his racial talent, very resistant to beatings.

He laughed wildly, unstoppable, beating the guards back steadily. Intense battles continued inside the ship, and the external shields exploded continuously, forming a flamboyant melody.

"Where are we now?"

"Boss, the VIP cabin is ahead, Sissori is waiting for you there."

Soon, the metal door of the VIP hall appeared ahead, locked at this time. Shebian held the hammer handle with both hands this time, turned it around twice, and smashed it down with one hammer. With a bang like thunder, the door dented and flew in.

Sissori walked out with a smile, "You're finally here."

"Good job, where is that Godora person?"

"In the economy class hall."

"Very good!" Shebian grinned, turned his head to look at a group of cowering passengers, and ordered, "Arrest them all as hostages, and leave some people to guard them."

A group of scavengers took out small black metal rings, put them on the passengers' hands and feet, and they automatically stretched into mechanical shackles, very thick, tightly locking their hands and feet. Ordinary Espers couldn't break free, and this group of passengers were all captured as hostages.

There were also several Espers among the passengers, but the scavengers were numerous and powerful, and Shebian was too strong. They were afraid of death and dared not resist.

Immediately afterwards, Shebian went to the economy class hall and controlled this group of economy class passengers. He searched carefully, but there was no sign of the Godora person, and he was furious.

Sissori hurriedly said, "I just moved to the VIP cabin yesterday, and the ship hasn't docked. He must still be on the ship."

Shebian grabbed a passenger's head with his big hand and roared, "Where did that Godora person go?"

"He… they just broke the door and ran out." The man hurriedly replied.

Bang!

His head was crushed, and blood splattered on the faces of other hostages. Screams rose one after another.

Shebian shook his hand and said angrily, "He ran away, go find him immediately…"

Before he finished speaking, the communicator transmitted the voice of another group of scavengers: "Support, support! We encountered a powerful Esper on the way to the main control room. We have been stopped. Request assistance!"

Sissori hurriedly said, "Boss, the target is on the ship and can't escape. Let's go to occupy the main control room first. As long as we capture the ship, we can find the target sooner or later."

When Shebian heard this, he nodded, "Then go to the main control room. Sissori, you take some people to stay and control this group of passengers."

"No problem."

The economy class passengers were put in shackles and thrown aside. The scavengers raised their guns, aiming at the crowd, preventing the passengers from acting rashly, and making them tremble.

Shebian led people to the main control room. The ship was not small, and it took a while to reach the scene. The corpses of scavengers were all over the ground. Shebian's vision flashed, and a fountain-like green light burst out at the end of the corridor. A dozen scavengers crashed into the wall, their bodies twisted, their tendons broken and their bones fractured.

The Green Knight blocked the main control room passage, his face cold, green light flooding, like ripples wrapped around his body. The mechanical limbs were reflected in dark green. He was actually an Esper, manipulating some kind of strange energy that appeared green in the spectrum, which could be shaped and had impact and defense capabilities. It belonged to a variant of force field-based ability. This was the origin of his nickname.

"Look, Green Knight Realdon, a high-level mercenary, a remnant of the Sunil tribe." Shebian's eyes revealed desire, and he approached with great interest, dragging his warhammer, and said, "Finally, a powerful guy has come."

Realdon's eyes were cold. He was a mercenary, and the reason for helping was largely due to the reward promised by the captain, otherwise he would have gone to find an escape pod long ago.

The mechanical arm on his left hand folded and deformed, revealing a dark muzzle. Beams of lasers shot out, extremely fast, piercing the chests of several scavengers, leaving melted blood holes.

The other scavengers hurriedly looked for cover and counterattacked. Shebian was fearless, charged forward, the lasers hitting him, leaving only speckled scorch marks. He rotated the warhammer, creating a stern and heavy gray aura, and smashed it down!

Realdon raised his right hand and released green light, forming a burning light shield, blocking it above his head.

Bang!!

The air ring burst open, green light splashed, and echoes buzzed.

…

Time rewinds to almost ten minutes ago.

The stern warehouse of the Duanjiao Star was far away from the battlefield. The sound of fighting was barely audible here. The warehouse door was wide open, and the way it was opened was very in line with violent aesthetics. Han Xiao and his party were searching in the warehouse.

"Found it." Han Xiao finally found his box, opened the password lock, and a stream of white cold air leaked out. The Soaring Serpent mech was quietly placed inside.

He quickly put on the equipment, started the system, and the sleeping mech lit up. The energy core shone brightly, and blue energy, like blood, slowly flowed through all the transport pipes.

With the equipment in hand and in excellent condition, Han Xiao felt relieved. He took all the weapons, and suddenly remembered Kerlodd's request. After thinking about it, he left the [Garitan's Wrath] and threw all the other golden balls to Kerlodd.

"Your equipment, take it, don't hold me back."

Kerlodd was stunned, put away the small ball, and said solemnly, "I will fight alongside you."

Only half of the players were online, and more than twenty players got weapons.

Han Xiao said in a deep voice, "Let's split up. Now let's allocate teams…"

The plan was to divide into three groups. Kuang Dao, Yu Xiang Qie Zi and another team went to control the emergency aircraft and find a way out. Temple, Dynasty and others went to cut off the scavengers' retreat and block the entrance to the Duanjiao Star. Kerlodd and the remaining players would follow him to the main control room, which was the most important route.

At this moment, the broadcast rang, and the captain's declaration requesting passengers to help sounded.

After listening, Han Xiao's eyes lit up.

"Reward…"
