"One o'clock direction, 20 degrees of depression, three enemy ships!"

Lock the enemy aircraft according to Mimi's announcement and check the speed in the direction of the bow. I'm coming.

"Reversing after crossing, removing the ass"

Point the bow at the enemy aircraft, suddenly accelerate and rub each other. He was shot with a laser and a multicannon, but received minimal damage.

"Be prepared for G!"

Spray Krishna's attitude control booster to rotate the ship's direction 180 °, accelerate at a stretch, and get behind the enemy ship. Intense G attacks with rotation and rapid acceleration, but this clenches teeth and withstands.

"In front of the enemy plane!"

Completely behind. He fires heavy laser cannons on the left and right of the enemy aircraft that are trying to escape and escape, aiming the shotgun at the enemy ship in front. It seems that he is desperately trying to escape, but it is impossible to beat Krishna with the mobility and acceleration performance of a pirate ship.

"Three with this"

Barrels on both sides of the cockpit ignited, and countless bullets struck the pirates from behind. The bullet saturates the enemy's shield in an instant, breaching the unprotected thruster, the energy transfer tube ahead, and the main generator. The Swiss cheese is ready in an instant. Overtake the three exploding pirate ships and search for the next target.

"Isn't it sharp?" "I don't know." "At 3 o'clock, there are a lot of enemy ships at 20 degrees of elevation, six ... no, seven. There are two medium-sized ships." Leave the flare timing "," OK "

Spray thrusters and point their bow at the enemy group.

"Approaching the enemy ... what is it? With arms? "" With arms ...? Hey, turn the image-it's the last monster! Hey! Run away! Run away! "Where do you flee? ? "I just have to do it before it gets done! 』

Seven enemy ships head for the bow at once. The two mid-sized ships seem to be transports that have been converted to missile support ships.

"First, drop it from the medium size", "Yes!" "Yes" "Shoot and shoot!" I'm sorry! 』

A warning sound sounds in the cockpit. It is a seeker missile that detects heat sources. It has high guidance performance and demonstrates great attack power against both shield and armor. It is one of the most powerful weapons used by pirates.

"Flare development"

Multiple sources of heat are launched from Krishna at the same time as Elma's declaration. Massive seeker missiles fired from two modified midships flood the decoy heat source and lose sight of the target. In the meantime, Krishna was exiting a seeker missile barrage. Slippery.

"Second shooting ...!" "" Melee defense! "Stop! "Is it in time?"

Already within this range. A modified midship opens the missile bay, but it's too late. Numerous bullets fired in succession from two shotguns saturated the shield of the medium-sized ship and landed on armor, on the hull, and on open missile bays.

"Wow! ? 』

Two medium-sized ships literally explode and scatter. The pirate ship shook behind in the sight. It looked like that.

"Ya, yabe ..." "Run away-" "I can't let it go." "Of course, all the pirates have been killed."

He fires a heavy laser gun at a pirate ship trying to escape in a hurry, chasing around and firing a shotgun. Is it fun to slaughter unwarrior enemies? It's interesting! The garbage in the universe disappears and you can make money. There is nothing so fun. Justice and cause are always sweet.

"Tat, help--" "I hate it."

Sometimes you have to look at the back of the label to get ridiculous, but don't worry about the pirates. Even if they exist in this world, they are harmless and useless.

"Area clear. The next nearest is 1 o'clock" "Let's go" "Yes"

We nodded and let Krishna run to the next battlefield.

☆ ★ ☆

"The war situation" "It seems that the surprise attack was effective. The scale of the counterattack is not large." "Yes. I was informed that each ship should carry out its duties calmly in this condition."

This is dominant in the war situation. It was great that I could hit the hanger of the Pirate's base in the first strike. No matter how powerful a ship is, it can only be a wooden figurine if hit before leaving port. Since only the largest hanger was crushed, the pirates from the other hangers seemed to sortie ... mercenaries seem to be fighting well. Pirate ships trying to escape from the airspace have been successfully contained. Normally, only one star system exists in one star system. The Imperial Space Army with a patrol duty may call at ports, but such troops may defeat the pirate they saw and not only go out, but specialized in military action targeting pirate We are the first unit in the history of a long empire. The Imperial Army can't really aim for the pirates-this is the result of breaking the common sense and hitting the psychological gap. Because it was independent of the traditional command system of the star system, no information was leaked to the pirates, and it was possible to strike completely unexpectedly.

"The increase in prize money is ..."

Operate the holographic display at hand to check the down scores of mercenaries participating in this operation. First place-Krishna. His ship. After confirming that, I realize my mouth loosened. It's not good to feel like you're floating during your mission. I managed to restore my expression with one hand, hiding my mouth. This is not the case with a grin. You have to be prepared for an unexpected accident.

☆ ★ ☆

"I'm done with this." "Area clear, there is no reaction nearby."

It seems that the battle is still going on in the airspace far from here, but there seems to be no reaction of enemy aircraft in the vicinity anymore. I also check the radar response, but the response seems to be quite far.

"How many killed?" "Score down 33 small ships, three mid-sized ships." "Did you not earn as much as the Turmaine system?"

Certainly, he would have been more hunted during the defeat of the Turmaine system. Is your arm dull?

"I can't help it because the absolute number was small. I think it is a phenomenal result considering that."

Certainly, the shadow of the enemy was a bit thin. Was the preemptive strike too effective?

"That's right. Well, 5,000 for a small ship and 20,000 for a medium-sized ship. If so, would it be 200 energies for the defeat fee alone?" And the prize money is counted separately. "The price is around 10,000 for a small ship and around 50,000 for a medium-sized ship. Is it about 500,000 plus the participation fee?" I guess it's about 700,000 in total? And where is the plunder of cargo? "" I have to work hard on plunder. "

Since there is no enemy shadow in the surrounding space, we will immediately start fishing for wreckage of enemy aircraft. The aim is not bulky, but high value rare metals, high-tech products, and luxury items such as sake and drugs. Of course, there are many illegal drugs, but the army will buy what you get through such military-approved subjugation, so it's a good fruit. I don't know what they use. It may not be easy for the imperial government to sell it as space debris with illegal drugs because it cannot be sold. If we didn't pick up, the illegal drug container would continue to float in this space. This could lead to malicious scavengers-garbage collectors targeting the container. They are like garbage dumps that appear on battlefields and collect and recycle various merchandise and junk items that we and mercenaries have recovered. The reason they're called scavengers—that is, carrion fishing—is simple because they aim at the spills of the battlefield where our mercenaries and soldiers fought for their lives without getting dirty. I don't think otherwise. I think it's hard work. It won't make much money. But some mercenaries and troops dislike them like a scorpion. Some malicious scavengers pick up illegal goods and sell them. That would be a useless thing.

"Because I'll be on guard, will Elma work while telling Mimi how to operate the recovery drone?" "Iisa. Mimi, I'll do my best."

Elma begins searching for prey using various sensors. I drove the ship according to her instructions.
