Chapter 1119 Robbed on the Road
"Hurry up, the First Academy will soon conduct the admission examination, and I need a few followers."
"Okay, Fifth Master, we will send the selected people to you as soon as possible."
The man immediately replied respectfully.
The Fifth Young Master then hung up the video call with satisfaction.
The man then put away the humility on his face and contacted his right-hand assistant through another intelligent computer.
"Roland, contact the psychics sent out by the organization to determine who has been out of contact for a long time."
On the other side of the video was a middle-aged woman with a rather dull face, her hair neatly tied up behind her head, and she said with an unchanged expression:
"Master Mori, I was just about to report to you that a group of three psychics have been out of contact for more than a month. They have received two missions. One is to establish contact with the star pirates near the Aquamarine Galaxy, and the other is to verify whether the chess pieces released by the organization have the potential to become psychics.
It is currently unknown what mission caused them to lose contact.”
"Then go check it out. Don't delay too long."
"yes!"
"The Fifth Young Master needs a few followers. Pick out a few psychics with better qualifications and prepare them to take part in the entrance examination for the First Academy."
"Yes, I'll do it right away."
The two ended the communication.
Ripple on Lant Star doesn't know yet that trouble will come to her soon. At this moment, she is happily harvesting the second batch of purple sweet potato rice.
Because of the presence of this exotic plant, Duoduo, the crops in the field are growing very well and the yield is not low.
Lianyi kept enough for herself to eat, and sold the rest to the seed company with which she had a good relationship, and then she earned another one million federal coins.
After seeing off the people who were buying the crops, Lianyi prepared to rest for two days and then buy a ticket to the central planet. The entrance examination for the First Academy was about to begin.
"Xiao Liu, is there anything unusual with the people monitoring me recently?"
"No, they are so idle that they are almost growing mushrooms."
Xiaoliu responded immediately.
"Help me book a ticket. We are leaving for the central planet."
"Okay, I've booked an economy class ticket for you."
"Yes, being low-key is the best way to go."
"We will set out in the morning three days from now."
Three days later, Lianyi traveled light, still carrying her old shoulder bag. Duoduo chose to wrap the arm around Lianyi's wrist, but before boarding the ship, Lianyi met Officer Lance again.
Lianyi was a little speechless, but she still asked politely:
"Hello, Officer Lance, are you going to Central Star as well?"
"no."
"So you came to see me on purpose? What's the matter?"
Ripple asked politely.
"How confident are you that you can be admitted to the First Academy this time?"
Lance asked instead of answering.
"I don't know. This is my first time taking an exam of this level, but I'll try my best."
“If I fail the exam.”
"Officer Lance, I haven't taken the test yet! Can you say something auspicious?
Even if you are just pretending, you can still wish me to pass the exam. It's very discouraging to say I won't pass right away."
Lianyi couldn't help but rolled her eyes.
"I was thinking that if you fail the exam, you can go back to Lant Star and do farming."
Lance said calmly.
"Then I will work hard to pass the exam. I don't want to live under the surveillance of others all the time."
Lian Yi calmly retorted.
Lance was not surprised at all that Lianyi discovered the monitor. After all, with the help of the alien plants, it would be strange if she didn't discover it.
"Although you have a perfect alibi and have no connection with those people, I still believe that they were targeting you."
Lance said after his gray-blue eyes flashed.
"I don't understand what Officer Lance said. If you are talking about the crew member on the spacecraft, this is really the first time I have seen him. I don't know what happened to him."
Ripple denied.
"Whether you understand or not, I just want to remind you that Central Star is not Lant Star. It's best to hide your tail before doing anything."
After Lance finished speaking, he turned and left without waiting for Lianyi's response.
"Xiao Liu, is he giving me a hint or did he really discover something?"
"Not sure, but he still doubts you."
"I understand. After we get to the Central Star, we should keep a low profile."
After Lianyi finished speaking, she boarded the spaceship bound for the Central Star following the broadcast prompt. However, this journey was not as smooth as she had imagined.
Lianyi is already an adult, so she was not taken care of alone this time. She sat in the middle section of the economy class, and around her were people who had come up from the interstellar port a few days earlier, mostly her age. They probably had the same purpose as her, which was to take part in the admission assessment.
When the spacecraft was halfway through its journey, it was suddenly hit by a violent impact.
Lianyi was resting with her eyes closed at the time. It was at Xiaoliu's reminder that she immediately activated the seat protection device to prevent herself from being thrown out. Then she heard a "bang" sound in her ears, followed by a scream.
"Xiao Liu, what's going on? Is there something wrong with the spaceship?"
"No, we encountered space pirates."
Xiaoliu said concisely.
"Star pirates? Aren't they courting death so close to the central star?"
"I can only say that you are unlucky. This pirate ship should not be heading for this spaceship. They jumped through space and appeared directly in the direction of the spaceship. They must have lost their direction while escaping."
Xiaoliu's core program ran at a high speed and made a basic judgment on the accident.
"What bad luck."
What could Lianyi say? She had already set out early and still couldn't avoid this group of pirates. The difference was that in her previous life, she was on a spaceship from Planet W to Planet Central, and that group of pirates was heading for the spaceship.
Now she was on a short-distance spaceship, and this group of pirates were in a panic when they were escaping, and they chose the wrong direction and collided with them. It was estimated that the captain of the spaceship had already sent a distress signal to the mecha patrol team on the central star.
"What should we do? I saw that it was a pirate ship that hit us!"
A man of the same age next to him said in panic.
"Don't be afraid. We are only half a day's flight away from the Central Star. It should be easy for them to detect the accident on our side. I think they should send someone over now."
An older woman spoke immediately after she steadied herself and sat back in her seat.
"Ripple, the captain has requested backup, but before that, you must be prepared to become a hostage."
Xiaoliu immediately provided first-hand information.
"The pirates are coming aboard."
Lianyi said after her eyelids twitched.
"Yes, if they want to escape, they can only use you hostages for negotiation. Otherwise, they will be wiped out!"
Lianyi couldn't help but sigh at her original body's luck, which was really unique.
"Can you break through the main control program of the space pirate spaceship after the space pirates enter this spaceship?"
"Can."
"Then let's get started."
"receive."
A quarter of an hour later, the door of the general cabin was broken open, and a group of vicious space pirates walked in with beam guns, shouting as they walked:
"We are the Black Tiger Star Pirates. If you don't want to die, just be quiet!"
"Third leader, the boss asked us to pick some people as hostages and take them aboard our spaceship."
