I Woke Up Piloting the Strongest Starship, so I Became a Space Mercenary

Back on the ship, I connected to the trade colony's network and spent several days gathering information. Illegal, of course, in ways that are not. It requests the port management office to connect to the network for information collection, and the information is collected while their network administrators monitor the access contents. The first thing I gathered was to gather information on the nearby star system and the controlling space empire. I decided to check the situation where I am now. First, the name of the star system I am in, but it is called the Turmaen system. It is a stellar system centered on the B-type star, Turmaen, and has four planets. TermeⅠ, which is the closest to TermeⅠ, is close to a star and has very high surface temperature with little value. Next to the star is Turmaen II, a gas planet composed of hydrogen and helium. It seems that helium-3 is being mined from this gas planet as an energy resource. An asteroid belt surrounds the three stars, and it is said that rare metals and other abundant mineral resources are mined from this asteroid belt. There are also two planets outside of them, each named Turmaen II. It's a name with no twists. Terme II is a poisonous planet with toxic atmosphere and acid rain, but the atmosphere and acid rain seem to be used as valuable chemicals, and valuable metals are buried on the surface and underground. That there is. A mining station and prison have been set up in orbit, and sinners are reportedly being subjected to severe labor. It seems that Terme II is a gas planet like Terme II, but it is far from the trade colony, and it seems that Terme II, the same gas planet, is abandoned because it is closer to the asteroid belt and has good mining convenience. In summary, this is a very resource-rich star system. Since merchant and mining vessels of various sizes operate in these stellar systems, pirates are not short of prey. In other words, there is no shortage of mercenary work. There is another element that seems to be indispensable in the work of mercenaries, but let's first explain the space empire that controls this star system. The name of the space empire that governs this star system is the Graccan Empire. The state is run by the emperor and the aristocrats who follow it, and the nation's momentum seems quite good. Over the past few years, conflicts with the neighboring country, Berebelem, which have been intimidating for a long time, have surfaced, and skirmishes near the border seem to be continuing. This is another element that seems to be indispensable for the mercenary's work, but the Turmean system is very close to the border between the Graccan Empire and the Federation of Bereberem, or just the border.

"Don't get into a conflict if you stay in this area as it is."

no doubt. Absolutely involved. It's a profitable mercenary, but honestly it's too risky to take part in a dispute when you don't know the world right or left. Participating in a conflict means fighting regular space empire opponents. It's not the same as fighting a pirate opponent who only has ragged ships.

"Will you fly to another star system at last?

It seems like Selena-sama was noticed in the last case. I don't see any contact from the far side, but occasionally when I look outboard, I've seen a guard looking like a guard watching the ship. If you leave this star system in a hurry, there is only a feeling that something bad will happen. It looks like a mercenary, so it's better to wait for a while to get rid of the pirate and let the hot air cool down.

"Even so ..."

Look at the galactic map and growl. I entered some of the names of the star systems that existed in my memory of Stella Online, but they did not hit the search on the Galaxy Map. I looked into a lot of other things as well, but they seemed strange. For example, many of the shipmakers and ships in circulation, as well as other equipment and items, also existed on Stella Online. There are many things that I can understand. However, on the other hand, ships and items that I have never seen seem to be in circulation. The biggest problem is the local power in each region. For example, the Graccan Empire, which controls the system, seems to be a space empire of considerable size. However, in my memory, there is no space empire named Stella Online in Stella Online. At least within the range that the player is searching. The galaxies you can explore on Stella Online are large, and players have not yet reached the center of the galaxy. Maybe it's a space empire that Stella Online hasn't yet discovered--that is, a space empire located on the other side of the galaxy, but ... It seems strange that it is also distributed.

"Hmm ... Is it the same world?"

The advantage I have in this unusual situation. It may be the experience and knowledge gained from this Krishna and Stella Online, but it is hard to measure how useful that experience and knowledge is. The knowledge I know can be an extra prejudice and cause a fatal failure. In the future, we may be skeptical of the knowledge we should know, and it might be better to have a habit of reconciling whether or not it is in this world as well. Believing is dangerous.

"... I have to refill food soon."

In the last few days the food originally loaded on the ship has almost exhausted. Something like a granola bar, something like a jerky, a canned one, and a food cartridge for a simple cooker. Food cartridges are made from processed algae and are used in machines such as 3D printers, which can easily make food. It produces meaty and fishy things at an incredible level that the original is algae. Not delicious, but can be eaten normally. As expected, it is a cooking machine in the science fiction world. By the way, the generated garbage and my excrement were recycled inside Krishna, compressed into blocks, and picked up by the colonies. It seems that the processing fee is included in the berth fee. Of course, I didn't know about such a system, so I got a strange face as if I was asking the staff who came for recovery to teach me. Does this guy know this common sense? I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. As expected, Stella Online didn't have that much description. I learned a lot about common sense through the network. There are still dangers, but I think it's OK. Also, I found out that I thoroughly explored Krishna's interior and exterior, but Krishna's habitability was not worse than I had imagined. Krishna was originally a small ship with a maximum crew of five, but there was one single room and two double rooms on board, as well as a shower, laundry, kitchen and medical room. Krishna was originally a military ship. For military duties, the crew may spend several months, or years of worries on board, and conduct operations. Traveling around this vast universe is all about longer travel time. I think that Krishna's habitability has increased in view of such circumstances. In any case, you have to go inside the colony to buy food. Get ready and get off the ship with a small information terminal and a self-defense laser gun. The laser gun will be carried around in a shoulder holster so that it looks good. If you do so, you will be shown to others that it is dangerous. It's like a warning color for animals and insects. Honestly, I don't know how reliable it is because I haven't shot it, but I've read the manual properly, so it's OK to handle it. It should be. I don't know how to maintain it. You may need to bring it to the gun shop someday. Stella Online also has a melee mode, in which pilots fight directly with a laser gun or laser rifle. This laser gun was obtained when you won the melee competition in an in-game event. I like the performance and design because they are good. There was also a mode of fighting in melee combat using weapons such as power armor and tanks that have both armor and firepower. The cargo of this ship also has one power armor. Of course, it is the highest quality customized product.

"Okay, go?"

I had never lost in melee games in the game with the old Kiseki, but it doesn't always work so well in this world. I don't want to be too unreasonable.
