The battle ended extremely quickly. By the time the support fleet of the giant enterprise arrived at the scene, there was nothing left for them except a pile of wreckage.

As the commander of this operation, Half frowned after seeing the situation on the scene. He was not worried that the goods sent to the People's Alliance would be intercepted and the People's Alliance would make trouble.

At worst, compensation will be enough. The last thing a giant company lacks is money.

But what a huge turmoil it would cause within the giant company if all these gilded young masters who served as escorts died here!

These young soldiers came here to gild their reputations, but now they have died on this route which is generally recognized as safe. Not to mention him, a small commander, even the commander-in-chief of their army group would probably be worried sick.

"Clean up the battlefield and see if you find anything."

Luo Ji's destruction of the scene can be said to be quite thorough. Everything that could preserve data was wiped out in the final flying water droplets. The remaining debris was a pile of scrap metal floating in space.

"Reporting to the commander, the scene has been severely damaged, all warships are damaged, and nothing has been found!"

After a round of search, they finally came to a conclusion that gave Half a headache. This time the enemy was quite powerful. If it was really based on Xi Musheng's previous request for help, they were indeed space pirates. Then this group of space pirates must be private soldiers raised by some powerful force.

"Clean the scene again and keep a record of the situation. If nothing is found, call it a day!"

Since there was no gain on the scene, what we need to worry about now is the problem of the remaining shipping routes. With such a big incident happening, the giant companies also need to think carefully about whether this pirate robbery was an accident or premeditated.

The Cygnus constellation is a recognized safe star region. Such a major hijacking incident occurred here. As the leader of Cygnus, the Human Union should not have taken no action.

"Is it possible?"

A terrifying idea suddenly appeared in Half's mind, but he immediately suppressed it.

There has always been a mutual non-interference between the People's Federation and the giant enterprises. There is no reason for the People's Federation to provoke the giant enterprises at this time.

After the people below had finished dealing with every detail of the scene, Half was about to order the troops to withdraw when he heard that the military engineer accompanying the army had made a new discovery.

"Based on the energy fluctuations left at the scene, Captain Xi Musheng should have broken through the encirclement and was preparing to jump, but in the end he couldn't escape and was riddled with bullets by the opposing warships."

"oh?"

Hearing this, Half also became interested. Although Xi Musheng himself looked down on him, he was still capable of being the commander of an operation. Since it was said that he had broken through and was then shot down, then something unexpected must have happened.

Half had a prediction that he would encounter this pirate group that attacked the giant corporate caravans frequently in the future, so the intelligence that could be collected would be extremely crucial.

"How do you say that?"

"Based on our research on the position and energy collection around Captain Xi Musheng's warship, we found that a strange type of light-speed particles is floating in the space around Captain Xi Musheng's warship.

This kind of particle seems to be able to slow down the surrounding space to a certain extent. That is to say, Captain Xi Musheng thought he had entered the speed of light state and was preparing to jump, but in fact he did not enter the speed of light state.

A simple analogy is that the boiling point of water is different on plains and plateaus. Under the influence of these special light-speed particles, the energy required to fly at the speed of light or even faster than the speed of light is different from before, and the system can't immediately detect the problem!

After listening to the military engineer's introduction, Half was also a little shocked. This was already an application of the speed of light law, limiting light through light.

"Organize this discovery into a detailed research model for me. I need to submit it to Commander Vartom personally!"

This is a method that has never been used by any civilization before. How could an unknown space pirate group have this technology?

It is obvious that the giant enterprise is being targeted by an unknown force!

......

Valtom Association.

Looking at the materials submitted by Half, Valtom Constant also frowned. As the third in command of the Valtom Association and a giant who controlled an army of giant companies, he could naturally see the authenticity of the model report provided by Half.

Combined with the on-site report of this incident, this unknown pirate group must be no simple matter!

"Why choose this time? Interesting."

Judging from the combat power displayed by the other side, this pirate group requires the giant enterprise to send at least 8,000 regular troops to complete its destruction. Sending fewer troops will be of no use at all.

They're not pirates at all! You sent a fleet of 5,000 to attack them, but the giant corporations are so big and powerful that they're not afraid of losses. You think you've injured them, but they can just as quickly fill the gap!

If the enemy is not destroyed in an organized manner, then it will be meaningless.

but!

Now is the critical period for the giant enterprise in dealing with the Suramo incident. The role of each fleet is very huge. If the giant enterprise wants to swallow the Suramo tribe in an acceptable state, it needs to try its best.

A battle group of 8,000 warships is already one of the few reserve forces. Wouldn't it be more costly than beneficial to send them out to suppress bandits?

The experienced Constant immediately sensed the conspiracy behind this.

This time, the giant company has contacted several other forces to prepare to divide the Suramo tribe. It seems that some people can't sit still.

"Human Union? Earth Union? Or Xilan Elders Association?"

After silently reciting a few names in his mind, Constant felt it necessary to communicate with the others.

Then he gave an order to Half beside him:

"Next time we cross the trade route to the Earth Alliance, you will lead your troops as an ambush force and follow behind. Your main mission is to gather intelligence! If the goods are robbed, they are robbed. Do you understand?"

Although Half was puzzled by his commander's order, he immediately agreed. He also wanted to see what this unknown pirate group was like.

This sea of ​​stars has been quiet for so long, it's time for something interesting to happen.
