"How about Mimi, the whole battlefield?"

After collecting the goods with the collection drone, I approached Mimi.

"Um, um, um ... the friendly forces seem to be doing better overall." "Do you know where you're likely to be struggling?" "Um ... I'm sorry, I don't know." Well, I'm just a sensual thing, but ... basically, it can be thought that there is a one-to-three to one-to-four difference in power between a mercenary ship and a pirate ship. The point where you're approaching the pirates is where you should intervene, but it's generally suicide to penetrate where there's more than one to ten. "I see." "I see ... well, that's the point of engagement from here, looking down and to the left. It's close to the Star Army, but it looks like we're struggling with about three medium-sized ships."

When I checked the ship while heading to the point designated by Mimi, it seemed to be slightly inferior. About 20 small pirate warships per four mercenaries. In addition, there are three medium-sized ships. There is also support fire from the Star Army, and it looks like he's fighting well, but it seems a bit harsh if left unchecked.

"Okay, I will intervene. Mimi, please be careful, but keep my radar monitored closely so that you will not be surprised. I will also ask for communication when intervening." "Yes, I will do my best!"

Examine Mimi's yelling voice as he examines the equipment of a medium-sized pirates that might pose a threat. It's the same as the missile support ship that we just saw, and it's a civilian transport ship. This is common for pirates. Without destroying the attacked ship, destroy and capture thrusters, etc., remove the crew and steal the ship. The Stella Online setting was told that the armament stripped from the mercenaries and merchant escorts that had been returned was attached to those ships and turned into quick-built fire support vessels. I suppose that is the case in this world. I don't want to think too much about the fate of the original crew. By the way, aside from the remodeling, the medium-sized ship is equipped with a multi-cannon for close defense and a medium-sized laser cannon for support attacks. Is it a bombardment support ship that supports bombardment with a medium-sized laser gun with high firepower from behind a small ship that is an avant-garde? The proximity defense multicannon is probably an automatically controlled turret cannon. The firepower in front of the turret, upwards, and left and right is pretty good. A high-performance, large-capacity shield generator equipped in Krishna would not easily saturate the shield if attacked by three aircraft, but it was not necessary to fight head-on. . According to the turret arrangement, the area directly below and behind is completely blind spot. The former deck should have a large cargo space on the lower deck. It is very unlikely that the pirates will apply additional armor, etc., so they should probably be defenseless. There's no way you can't poke it. I turned down the aircraft's generator output, took the weapon system offline and activated the rapid cooling system. "Pay it, it's getting a little cold." "Yes, what are you doing?" "What a fight from the front is not a mercenary fight." As the hull temperature drops, The temperature in the cockpit also begins to drop. In three minutes, the air in the cockpit was so cold that my breath became white. Mimi turned her eyes to see if she was OK, but it seems that the clothes' winter performance is quite good. The breath seems to be white, but I don't see anything cold.

"Okay, let's go."

Having cooled the aircraft sufficiently, I moved Krishna with minimal power and made a big turn into the blind spots of three medium-sized ships. No small or medium-sized pirates have noticed my actions.

"Hilo-sama, why don't you notice?" "A fighting ship usually has a high fever, so the specific gravity of relying on heat source sensors to keep track of a fighting ship is It's quite large, so in the space where many ships are fighting, there is necessarily more debris from destroyed ships, so normal radars are less useful, and thus the aircraft temperature can be extremely high By lowering and cheating the eyes of the heat source sensor, you can act among the debris. ''

This is what Stella Online called thermal stealth. Originally, the forced cooling device is a device for rapidly lowering the temperature of the aircraft that has risen too much by using a laser cannon, etc., but that is the thing to use.

"I see ... there are a variety of techniques." "I don't mean you can use it anytime, anywhere. Well, you're in time. Let's go."

After confirming that I was completely in the blind spot of the medium-sized ship, I restarted Krishna's weapon system and aimed the heavy laser and shotgun at the defenseless bank of the medium-sized ship.

[That! ? Reaction of enemy aircraft downward! ? I'm completely in the blind spot! ? "What is it! ? Teme, what have you seen so far! ? Did you fall asleep during the battle? ? "I watched it! It suddenly appeared like a ghost! "Is that so? Damn, turn! Turn around! "Is it in time?"

I fire four heavy laser cannons in succession, saturating the shields of three medium-sized ships in no time.

"Huh! ? Shield! "Nana! ? Avoid it! Booster! ""in the way! Open the way! 』

The shotgun also fires on the bank of the calm mid-sized ship. Thousands of bullets breached the soft belly of a medium-sized ship. It's a thin armored point. The bullets that jumped in would have breached the generators, life support, power distribution and ammunition shelves.

"No! Hey! "Evacuate! Evacuate! 』

Three medium-sized ships repeatedly make small explosions, eventually causing large explosions and stopping their functions. This is three.

"Mimi, communication of intervention" "Yes, this is Captain Hiro, call sign, Krishna. I'm Mimi, an operator. I'll intervene and support the battlefield from now on." "Thank you for your support, I was honest "Well, I wonder if I could get any more. I'll fold it! "Nuu! With a cute girl operator! ? Never lose! "I don't know if it's cute just by voice." "No, my voice is cute." Definitely cute. A child with a cute voice also has a cute face "

It's okay if you don't support them, these guys. I guess you can afford it.

"I'm going" "Ha ha ha"

He fires heavy laser cannons from his four armed arms and knocks the shotgun at each other to destroy the pirate ship. The pirates, who lost three medium-sized ships in a moment, were buoyant, and their coordination collapsed and the ship's maneuvering lacked vividness. It's all you can eat.

"Hi! ? A monster of four arms! "Kshit! Stop that arm! Hold your head down! "Bakaka! If you hold your head down, you'll be shot down with a shotgun! You do it! "Run away! Run away! I can't win! "Buh! ? You! Run away! You're being targeted by the Star System! 』

A pirate ship trying to leave the front is pierced by a thick strip of light gushing from afar and exploding. It's a star-based naval gunfire. The construction of "Cage" seems to be complete.

"There is no escape. I die here." With arms! 』

The pirates aim and fire at Krishna, my man, all at once. Apparently he decided to shoot me down first. I overdo it with sudden acceleration as the colorful striations pour all at once, and then try to shake off the pirate ship that turns and leaps sharply.

"Huuuu"

An alert from the AI that is under attack sounds, and a hologram image indicating the state of the aircraft displays the impacted portion of the shield. You have been hit. Mimi screams like the end of this world when she sees the information, but I kept calm. Certainly they are hit. However, only the first of the three shields is damaged. There are still two layers of shield left, and at this pace, even if you use the shield cell after the second layer breaks through, recovery will be in time. And even if all the shields are breached, strong armor remains. It's not time to panic yet. I haven't been able to attack me because I'm dedicated to evasion, but the pirates are desperate to attack me. And they are not mercenaries who miss that chance.

"Hyacher! All you can eat! "We've been licked by our opponents." "Typhoon, Fox 2, Fox 2!" "Hurricane Fox 2, Fox 2! 』

The mercenary warships, which had been one of the defenses until now, turn to the offensive and defeat the pirates one after another. I'm sorry that I can't just be shot unilaterally, so I will strike back at the right time and shoot heavy laser cannons to start killing the pirates. Shotguns are powerful weapons, but they cost as much as you shoot. The cost is much lower if you use only heavy laser cannons. If you earn, it is better to fight with a heavy laser cannon alone. In less than fifteen minutes, the situation was completely reversed, and all the pirate ships deployed in this space had been wiped out.

"Area clear, we win" "I thought what would happen at a time, but the flow changed after the arm came," "Do not do, arm"

Apparently "with arms" is going to be my nickname. It looks a bit ugly ... no, maybe it's a nickname with a taste and taste.

"I'm heading to the next battlefield. Good luck." "Oh, that's it. The operator's daughter, too. "" Yes, thank you. " It ’s absolutely cute. ”“ You're just that. That's why I'm always a virgin! " 』

Is the story common in this world? Accelerate the aircraft for the next battlefield. That's when the aircraft came into sight.

"White aircraft ...? Elma?" "Is Elma fighting?"

Intense striations are flying ahead. Oh, it tastes bad. Elma is dealing with a medium-sized ship equipped with an irradiating laser of the type commonly known as "Gerobi" and its escort units. The heavy laser cannon that my Krishna is equipped with is a pulsed laser, a type of laser cannon that fires powerful lasers in a very short time to attack enemy aircraft. On the other hand, an irradiation type laser called "Gerobi" is a type of laser cannon that irradiates a target with high-heat-radiation light continuously to burn off the hull or to overheat and aim for malfunction. There are various theories in the etymology of "Gerobi", but basically it should have been something like that, "Gero + Beam" and "Gerobi", which was abbreviated as "Gerobi". In essence, it's a hanging laser. I don't care about that now. If you do not help Elma sooner, you will be irreparable. I accelerate further to go to the spot.

"Nah, why! ? Sure, control is effective-kyaaa! ? 』

I decided to stop and keep a distance. Unfortunately it was too late.

"Wow! What a white plane! ? Stuck into this-avoid it! 』

Elma's white fuselage began to fly around with an awkward maneuver. I can't get anymore.

"Hi, Hiro-sama, are you okay with that?" "It's not at all. That's the end of a runaway." ? A little, what happened-hey! ? 』

It looks like he didn't know the runaway feature of Fei-ri ... Elma wasn't a veteran who knew and was using it, but he seemed to be a stupid person who bought a ship just looking at the specs.

"Ah, don't you help?" "I can't help ......... It's that speed, if you approach poorly, it's a mess," "Elm, Elma, Elma." But ...! "" No, that aircraft's cockpit was built to be extraordinarily rugged--it should have been built, so I'm guessed I won't die. If it explodes, just collect the cockpit-- "

At that time, Elma's white airframe passed through the siege of the pirates and began to blast in misplaced directions. The momentum is just like a meteor. I was prepared to come here, but in the direction of the day after tomorrow ...

"Kyu! ? Avoid and avoid! ""Wow! ? I'll rush! ? "Intercept ... No, but that's a mercenary-Nuwa! ? 』

Elma's airframe collides with a star battleship, smashing and halting its movement. The cockpit block seems to be safe, so if you are lucky you may not have hurt one. The problem is that the crashed battleships are also breaking down ... How much is the repair cost charged?

"Um ... what should I do?" "Unfortunately, there's nothing I can do ... let's concentrate on my job."

Elma's runaway collapses the formation and jumps into a confused group of pirates, firing shotguns and heavy laser cannons. Seems cold, but I can't really do anything. Let's say you concentrate on your work while praying for Elma's safety. Yup.
