The enemy is thirteen behind. This situation, which is backed from the beginning, is not very interesting. However, the shield capacity and firepower should be overwhelmingly higher basically. There are enough shield cells. Sometimes it's ant to take the push tactic.

"This time I'm going to shoot from the front" "Serious?" "Seriousness"

It deploys four weapon arms equipped with heavy laser cannons and two shotguns, sprays thrusters at maximum output and accelerates.

"Why are you running away? An asshole! "Gahah! Can you escape to 13 opponents? 』

I don't mean to run away. Take a distance with the pirates while thinking. He said he would shoot head-on, but he did not intend to stop and shoot each other. Because it is troublesome if shot from all sides.

"Are you going to escape as it is? This one seems to be faster, so it seems that you can escape ..." "No way" "Um ...?" "Will you do this?" ? 』

While maintaining the speed of moving forward, Krishna was rapidly rotated by injecting attitude control thrusters. As a result, Krishna, fleeing with her ass, confronts thirteen pirate pirates while retreating at the same speed.

"Well, it's a stable shot."

Krishna fires retreat thrusters and fires four heavy laser cannons while keeping a distance, while the pirate struggles to keep up. Since pirates usually prioritize attack power, their shield capacity is very poor. The green striations fired by heavy laser cannons easily penetrate such pirates' shields as shoji paper or something, melting the armor and piercing the hull.

"One shot shields-Wow! ? "Mi, missile! Hit all the bullets! 』

Four pirate warships exploded, but the remaining nine were brilliantly launching heat-sensing seeker missiles. He fired all his might to avoid wasting his fellow sacrifice. That's impressive. But it makes no sense.

"What, what! ? Missile! ? Guw! ? 』

Ultra-high-speed shots fired from two shotguns intercepted an imminent seeker missile and caused a large explosion. The explosion was blinded and heavy laser guns were fired continuously. Bullets fired from laser cannons and multi-cannons from the pirates fly, but are not able to hurt their armor because of Krishna's thick shield.

"Shit! It's a monster if you think it's a duck! Run away! 』

In addition, four ships are reduced and the remaining five ships. In such a case, why is it that the leadership remains conveniently because it is still behind? While thinking that there is no benefit, he fires heavy laser cannons further and kills pirates.

"Shit! Shit! I want to die! I want to die! Death-

The last ship is pierced by four striations and explodes. Is this a fucking word for shit? Ah, yes, when I was playing with FPS in the old days, I was like this, someone who was talking like a broken radio, Bursit Bursit.

"The situation is over. Hmm, there is too much difference in performance." "This ship is too foul. Isn't the generator output strange? It looks like a small ship, but its output and firepower are not as large as a large ship." I do not deny it, but the mobility characteristics are relatively peaky. "" Well, it is not as much as Swan. "" I think that Elma who has mastered that is definitely skillful ... That is me Is impossible. "

Talk to Elma and advance Krishna towards the wreckage of the pirate ship to begin salvaging loot.

"As usual, but ...

Mimi turns a subtle glance at me and Elma who speak in a bright tone that can be said to be in harmony. HM. Have you been pulled after hearing the endings?

"Is it too calm to kill a person?" "Um ..."

Mimi stuck to Elma's question. That's right, but isn't it hard to say that to me and Elma?

"Mimi, if you care about it, you won't be able to kill it. It's like a bad space monster that can attack people. You don't have to worry about the screams and begging of their voices, they've been attacking innocent civilian ships and neglecting such screams. Yeah. "" ... Yes. "

Mimi returns a shy voice. I can't see her face because she's away, but she's probably sunk.

"Well, it may be painful, but Mimi may be better. It's like me and Elma, so it might be better for Mimi to keep a gentle heart as the conscience of this ship." I have a good sense of conscience, but ... Mimi, don't forgive the pirates, because missing them alone could make dozens or hundreds of people unhappy. " "……Yes"

Ummm, the tension doesn't seem to return anymore. I don't know what to say in such a case. Sorry Mimi.

"I don't think there's a lot of cargo." "Well. Conserved food, sake, a small amount of rare metal. What kind of equipment would you just take off and take it out ... Oh"

While operating a drone and fishing for loot, I inadvertently found something sighing.

"What happened?" "You may have found yabemon." "Well, what are you singing again, crystal?"

Send the loot data I found to Mimi and Elma.

"Is this ... a cold sleep pod?

After confirming the data I sent, Elma made a disgusting voice. The cold sleep pod is an emergency escape pod equipped on passenger ships and other ships. It is intended to put humans who enter and escape into a state of asphyxia at low temperatures to suppress metabolism and to survive for a long time with few resources. A rescue signal is issued after a certain time after the injection, and it is a lifesaving device with the concept of letting another ship recover somehow while the passenger is alive in the cold sleep state. By the way, in Stella Online it is like a cash item. It is not such a simple object in this world.

"What's going on inside ... is it a survivor?" "If the pod isn't cool, it's not going to be ... I can't afford to leave it home."

This also imposes a life-saving obligation on the discoverer. If found and abandoned, it will be a pretty felony and a prize will be paid. There is no shortage of stories about mercenaries and merchants who are left with a lot of prize money if they leave it alone.

"Would you like to retrieve it ... let's go to the colony as soon as possible." "I got stuck when I came on vacation .... Well, it was stuck when the pirate attacked me." Well, why is it so troublesome ...? "

Elma and I stopped looking at Mimi's words. Since the main pilot seat and the sub pilot seat are adjacent to each other, the eyes can be adjusted in this manner. And now you're pushing each other to explain it, you're going to explain it ... but before I told Mimi a little bit more about the pirate, it's troublesome to save lives It's hard to explain why. Eventually, Elma breaks and sighs before she begins to explain.

"Cold sleep pods often cause memory confusion for a few days, so for a week or so, the rescuer has a duty to protect the" contents. " You can even bill the person for the cost in the meantime after you return. "" In other words, you can't go on vacation or hunt for pirates for a week ... … Well, I ca n’t help it because it ’s human help. ”“ Yes. Human help is good. I and Elma were helped by Hiro-sama. ”“ Yes. It's a bee, and I hope that there's no problem with the "contents". "" The contents ... I'm not going to open that much. "

Even if there is confusion in memory, it's good if it's a rational person .... It seems that there are times when you hear something from Elma that is outrageous.

"Either way, let's go to the Sierra Prime colony quickly. The collection is over." "Yes. Mimi, please reset the navigation." "Yes, set the navigation data."

Navigation data to the Sierra Prime Colony is set, and the target is displayed on the cockpit main display.

"Okay, let's go. Super fast drive charge started." "Yes, charge started."

Thus we placed the unknown Cold Sleep Pod in the cargo and resumed our journey to the Sierra Prime Colony. Don't even know what the "stuff" of the Cold Sleep Pod can cause.
