"Got it. Pick someone quickly. Do you know how to pick someone?"
A muscular man with a red buzz cut asked.
"I know, pick the pretty ones."
Before the other party could finish his words, the buzz-cut man slapped his forehead and yelled:
"What time is it? You're still thinking about the pretty one! Do you still want to escape back?"
The beaten star pirate touched his forehead and asked:
"So which one should I choose?"
"Stupid! The First Academy is recruiting students. At least one-third of the people on this spaceship are going to take the entrance examination. Take them away and make them afraid to attack us. Only then will we have a chance to escape. Do you understand?"
"clear!"
They spoke without avoiding people, so everyone in the cabin heard it. Most of them changed their expressions, and some even gritted their teeth and prepared to rush forward, but were forced back by the beam guns in the other party's hands.
Then Lianyi was lucky enough to become one of the hostages. It must be said that these people often did bad things and they were very good at it. When the rescue mecha team from the Central Star arrived, a group of hostages had already been taken on board the pirates' spacecraft.
The pirate boss openly negotiated with the captain of the mecha patrol team, asking the other party to let them go, otherwise they would kill the hostages live to let the public of the alliance know their incompetence.
The mecha captain Pang Mo was furious at this group of star thieves. This was a blatant provocation to their mecha unit. If they let this group of star thieves run away, they would be nailed to the pillar of shame for the rest of their lives.
However, due to the special nature of the hostages, he could not forcefully reject the other party, so he took a deep breath and began to negotiate with the other party:
"We can let you go, but you must ensure that the hostages leave safely."
"You'd better be nicer. I have a hostage in my hand."
The star pirate boss said arrogantly.
"Humph! If you want to leave, I won't stop you, but if you don't let the hostages go, our mecha unit would rather let the hostages be buried with you than let you go!"
Pang Mo said viciously.
The pirate leader was choked, touched his chin and decided that it would be better not to provoke the mecha troops, otherwise they would never have peace. Just like the other party said, what they wanted was to leave smoothly.
"Okay, let's each take a step back. I'll put the hostages in the lifeboat, and I'll release a lifeboat every few steps until we completely leave this star field. If you dare to block our way, I'll detonate the lifeboat."
"Ten hostages must be placed in the lifeboat at a time."
Pang Mo began to bargain.
The pirate leader curled his lips. He had originally planned to launch a single-person lifeboat so that he could reach a greater distance. Now that his plan was exposed by the other party, he could only settle for the next best thing.
Because the performance of their spacecraft could not compare with that of the Alliance, and the energy for a second space jump was insufficient, he had to buy at least half an hour.
"Deliver five hostages at a time!"
"No, at least eight!"
"No, just five!"
While the bosses of both sides were arguing, Lianyi and her friends were being pushed into an empty cabin by beam guns.
"Stay still, or I'll kill you!"
They were all young adults, and after being threatened, they all shrank back and then huddled together.
After the door was closed, no one dared to make a sound, and the brave ones were looking around.
Lianyi touched the smart bracelet that had not been taken away and tried to call the police, but found that the signal was blocked. Her friends who had the same idea also made the same attempt, but ended in failure.
However, Lianyi pretended not to give up and clicked the light screen, then communicated with Xiaoliu:
"Have you hacked into the main control program of the pirate ship?"
"Breaking through the last line of defense."
Xiaoliu said seriously, which was rare for him.
"When did you hack into the Star Pirate Ship's system?"
"When they docked with the ship to transfer the hostages."
"We are now in the starry sky. We need to find a way to change the direction of the spacecraft and locate the destination at the starport of the Central Star. But we must not let them notice anything unusual. I don't believe that I can't reach the Central Star."
Lianyi was ready to do something big, and she threw all the principles of keeping a low profile out of her mind. She just refused to believe it.
"Understood! We have cracked the last program. Now we will overwrite the program and rewrite the main control program!"
Xiaoliu tampered with the program while reporting the progress.
Another half an hour later, Xiaoliu gave another response:
"Lianyi, Xiaoliu has completely taken control of the pirate ship and is now turning around. If you want to leave now, I will help you open the hatch."
"Wait and see."
As Lianyi finished typing these words, the hatch was opened from the outside. The muscular man with a crew cut swaggered in, holding up the beam gun in his hand and said:
"Our boss has reached an agreement with the Alliance Mecha Force to release five hostages first. Who of you wants to go first?"
Everyone looked at each other, but no one expressed their opinion. One reason was that they were afraid of being tricked, and the other was that they were worried that they would be the first to be shot.
"Hey, don't be afraid! We space pirates are also very ethical. If you want to leave first, leave all your space equipment behind. The later you leave, the more dangerous it will be. Don't blame me for not reminding you!"
The star pirate put his greedy face on the table.
Lianyi thought about it and decided to hold off for the time being. The fewer people left, the easier it would be for her to act.
As expected, when the star pirates came, five people immediately stepped forward, handed over their space buttons, and were taken away.
"Xiao Liu, make sure they leave safely."
"receive."
The cabin fell into silence. Everyone hoped that the people leaving could be rescued smoothly, and prayed that nothing would go wrong when it was their turn.
Pang Mo's mecha team had received the first life capsule and immediately informed the captain after confirming the safety of the hostages.
"Captain, there are five hostages inside. We have checked their identities and all are OK."
"Okay, arrange for someone to send the hostages back to the spacecraft."
"yes!"
"Captain, look at the pirate ship!"
At this time, another team member shouted in the public channel.
All the team members heard it, and they watched as the black and red pirate ship in front of them slowly changed direction and then slowly flew towards them.
"Everyone, pay attention. Keep the formation flying backwards and retreating."
Pang Mo gave the order subconsciously.
"Yes, Captain!"
The mecha troops retreated as a whole, causing the pirate ship to miss the critical opportunity to discover the problem.
At this time, the second wave of five hostages were also successfully received by the mecha troops.
The mecha troops watched in wonder as the pirate spaceship got closer and closer to the central star, and all the personnel were ready for battle.
At this time, half of the hostages in the pirate ship had been sent away, leaving only fifty people. Xiao Liu reminded:
"Lianyi, please prepare for battle. In half an hour, the pirates will be able to tell with the naked eye that you are flying towards the central star."
"I see!"
Lian Yi responded and stood up, then knocked on the cabin door under the gaze of his friends.
"What are you doing? Are you looking for death? It's not your turn yet!"
A space pirate opened the hatch and shouted.
"No, it's my turn!"
