The video played automatically over and over again, Cai Yuanzu's face gradually became gloomy, and no one in the entire bridge dared to speak.
"liquor!"
After a while, Cai Yuanzu gasped and roared loudly.
As soon as he finished speaking, someone came running over with a bottle of wine. This kind of wine would be top-grade even if placed inside the planet.
Cai Yuanzu took it, shook it violently a few times, and with a plop, the cork automatically ejected. He suddenly put the bottle mouth to his mouth and gulped down a few mouthfuls.
"Does the timing match?" Cai Yuanzu said grimly with his red eyes.
"Captain, our advance spacecraft lost contact in the morning, and this video was released in the afternoon. There must be someone in those eight mechas who defected to the enemy." A shirtless man with messy hair stood up.
This is the captain of one of the giant starships of the Xinyang Star Pirates. His name is Dai Xin, and he is a very courageous and ruthless character.
"The way the video was processed, and the speed at which it spread among the Star Pirates, it's impossible for an outsider to be so familiar with it," Dai Xin said.
Cai Yuanzu put the wine into his mouth and swallowed a few gulps.
This video appeared in the Star Pirates Headquarters. Within about half an hour, it had spread to all the Star Pirates. Moreover, the network of the Star Pirates Headquarters was extremely complicated to log in to. Without the identity of a Star Pirate, it was impossible to log in.
What made Cai Yuanzu even more angry was that the spaceship in the video had the logo of their Xinyang Star Pirates.
Now, almost everyone in the entire Star Pirate World knows that their Xinyang Star Pirate Group not only made a big fool of themselves, but also had a fight with a mecha master with terrifying strength.
The video has been processed and is extremely short, but the content of the battle is not deceptive.
One mecha went in and out three times and killed more than forty mechas in just a few tens of seconds. Facing three spaceships, it shot them down on the spot with just one encounter.
Apart from the performance of the machine, the mecha pilot in the cockpit must also be very powerful.
"How do we deal with this?" Cai Yuanzu slammed the wine bottle heavily on the armrest of the chair. If he hadn't had too much fat on his body, the bottle would have been shattered into pieces under his force.
This is a major matter that concerns the reputation of the Star Sky Pirates. If it is exposed like this, their Xinyang Star Sky Pirates will become the laughing stock of all the Star Sky Pirates.
However, the opponent is not only a powerful mecha master, but also possesses a machine with extremely terrifying performance. If they fight head-on, then their Xinyang Star Pirates will most likely disappear completely in the Mingyuan Star Region.
Dai Xin suddenly stopped talking.
The others also lowered their heads.
Suddenly, the bridge liaison officer stood up. Everyone's eyes fell on him. Cai Yuanzu's eyes were red, and he was breathing heavily, staring at this man.
"Captain... Captain..." The bridge liaison officer's legs almost went weak and he fell to the ground, sweat dripping down his forehead. "Captain... Captain, there is a communication from one of the eight great families, the Liu family... the Liu family."
"The Liu family, one of the eight wealthy families?" Cai Yuanzu narrowed his bloodshot eyes.
"Why don't you take it?" Dai Xin shouted sternly.
The bridge liaison officer was busy connecting the video communication to the big screen.
The screen that was originally playing the battle video suddenly changed, and an old man in his seventies with a white mustache suddenly appeared.
"It's you?" Seeing the old man, Cai Yuanzu's pupils suddenly shrank: "Liu Xuming from the Liu family!"
Liu Xuming, the head of the Liu family among the eight wealthy families.
The head of the Liu family is different from the head of the family. The head of the Liu family is only the one in charge of a branch, while the head of the family is the leader of the entire family. Liu Xuming, the person in charge of the entire wealthy Liu family, can even have face-to-face conversations with the top leaders of the Interstellar Federation.
Someone in such a high position actually came to their tiny Star Pirates group?
Cai Yuanzu was shocked and surprised.
Some star pirates who recognized Liu Xuming were also shocked.
Although the Star Pirates are unruly, they are still able to face the reality that some people can be offended, but some people cannot be offended.
Just like Liu Xuming on the screen.
Although there was a screen between them, none of the Star Pirates dared to mock them.
Because they understood that if they angered this man, someone would immediately take action for him and die on the spot after just one word from him. Even Cai Yuanzu would not dare to risk the fate of the entire Xinyang Star Pirates to confront the person in front of him.
Fortunately, Cai Yuanzu was also a long-time leader of a group of star pirates, and he quickly calmed down. After a little thought, a light bulb went off in his head, and he immediately understood why the other party came looking for him.
"Captain Cai." Liu Xuming laughed, his smile kind.
Cai Yuanzu narrowed his eyes slightly. Don't be fooled by the kind and smiling face of this old man. That's just because the butcher's knife has not fallen on his neck yet. Once the decision is made, it is estimated that even if he has a hundred heads, it will not be enough to chop off.
"Master Liu, we are the Star Sky Pirates. We are frank and speak frankly. As long as we can help, we, the Xinyang Pirates, will definitely help you even at the risk of our lives." Cai Yuanzu's eyes flashed and he patted his chest with a solemn oath.
"Not bad." Liu Xuming nodded with satisfaction: "Since you understand why I came to you, I won't say much. I want living people. As for those mechas, you can put them into your mecha warehouse."
The Star Pirates around him were confused. Cai Yuanzu's expression changed in an instant: "Master Liu, this matter..."
"Based on the battle that took place in your Star Pirates, we can confirm that the man is in that location. Their intended target should be the Mining Star No. 5 in the Mingyuan Star Region."
Liu Xuming said.
"I've already spoken to the man from the Davis family. They have a group of star pirates that has already arrived near Mingyuan Star. As long as you agree, I will contact them immediately and let you join forces." Liu Xuming looked indifferent, as if he was strolling in the garden, talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
It turned out to be the guy named "Lin Tao". No wonder all three of his spaceships were shot down in a short period of time. The fact that "Lin Tao" sank seven giant starry sky warships with just a mecha had already shocked the world.
Cai Yuanzu's face darkened. After hearing Liu Xuming's suggestion, he frowned and asked, "Which Star Pirate Group?"
"Giant shield." Liu Xuming said calmly.
"Giant shield?" Cai Yuanzu was shocked.
The leader of the Giant Shield Pirates is known as Captain Nick. He has a small number of spaceships under his command, but he possesses terrifying strength. He even dares to use his spaceships to ram the fleet of the Interstellar Federation because their spaceships have terrifying defenses and can remain unscathed even after a rampage.
Not to mention the ordinary star pirate groups, even the Interstellar Federation fleet on ordinary planets can only turn around and leave in front of them.
Cooperate with them? Cai Yuanzu looked thoughtful and glanced at the bridge. It was a pity that his two sons were not present at this time, otherwise he could have listened to their opinions.
As for the other star pirates, they also had gloomy expressions, and even Dai Xin kept his head down and remained silent.
The sky pirates are different from the gangs within the planet. They have no loyalty or righteousness. In the same starry sky, there is often no room for two tigers in one mountain.
Not to mention after the cooperation, if the other party deliberately picks on them during the cooperation, it will definitely lure away a lot of star pirates.
The Star Pirates have always only recognized the strong.
It has been quite some time since Cai Yuanzu stepped out of the mecha cockpit, and the only reason he has been able to maintain the current Xinyang Star Pirates is with the help of his two adopted sons.
"Our Liu family owns three giant starships on Scorpio. If you are willing, these three giant ships will join your fleet, and the ships will be fully loaded with supplies." Seeing Cai Yuanzu's expression, the kind smile on Liu Xuming's face gradually disappeared. His eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes. Behind the coldness was a barely perceptible disdain.
“When will you join?”
Money can move people's hearts! When Cai Yuanzu heard the conditions offered by the other party, his eyes lit up.
"As long as you agree, these three giant starships will set off directly to the area you designated." Liu Xuming said.
"Okay! I agree." Cai Yuanzu gritted his teeth.
Liu Xuming's target is obviously 'Lin Tao', and 'Lin Tao' is also the person who caused their Xinyang Star Pirates to lose face. As long as they can successfully capture Lin Tao together with the Giant Shield Star Pirates, they can save face. Even if they cannot get those machines afterwards, it doesn't matter.
The three giant starry sky ships and the supplies inside them will not only allow Cai Yuanzu to recoup his original capital, but also strengthen the Starry Sky Pirates and save his face at the same time. If he doesn't do this, then Cai Yuanzu is no longer a Starry Sky Pirate.
"Hehe~" Seeing Cai Yuanzu agreed, Liu Xuming laughed again, but this time his laughter was no longer as kind and gentle as before, but was chilling.
"If the person I want to keep alive dies, your entire Star Pirates will be buried with him." Liu Xuming's voice was chilling.
"This..." Cai Yuanzu's expression suddenly changed.
But before he could respond, the communication was forcibly interrupted.
"You want it alive?"
Cai Yuanzu's expression suddenly became extremely ugly. With a clang, he threw the wine bottle in his hand to the ground. The wine spilled and the fragments were all over the ground.
He could agree to Liu Xuming's conditions, but he felt so aggrieved to be ordered around, it was like he was being treated like a dog. This was why Cai Yuanzu was so furious.
The Xinyang Sky Pirates were in contact with Liu Xuming, and the Sky Pirates in other places did not stop either. Most of the Sky Pirates who went to the vicinity of Mingyuan Star were also secretly contacted by the big shots.
Without exception.
The goal of all the bigwigs is the same, to capture Lin Tao alive.
No one knew why, and no one asked why, because the big shot had already made an offer that was irresistible. The Star Pirates, who were originally preparing to go to the mining planet to grab a piece of the pie, changed direction one by one, and their target was directly the Far Star No. 5 mining planet.
