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

# 265 You wanted to decide your next destination.

"So I would like to discuss the next destination"

Wow.

When I declare it, Mimi claps with a smile and cheer.I went all the way back from Minfa clan territory to Black Lotus because of the mercenary meeting, but I didn't want to settle down in Black Lotus.It's not a bad idea to set up meals in luxury hotels and inns.

"What's wrong, you knucklehead?"

"Don't worry about it, it's the usual."

I think Elma is a really good woman to clap her hands while saying that at the top of the Buddha.

"Can we give an opinion too?"

"Of course. If you have a plan, I want you to keep it coming."

Whether or not it will be adopted depends on the outcome of the discussion, but the more options the better.

"First of all, if you give me a general direction, I want to strengthen my power."

"Strengthen your power... in what direction?"

"I honestly find it difficult to strengthen Krishna.Too many black boxes. "

"That's right. I checked, but the heavy laser cannon looks like a dedicated stationary weapon and is incompatible.If you change it, it's like a shard cannon and a torpedo against a ship. "

"Let's turn the lower Weapon Bay torpedo tube into a Seeker missile pod.Changing the shard cannon is your hobby or no candle.I don't think shields or feet would be better than what I'm equipped with. "

"I'm not taking off my torpedoes.I definitely need one shot at a time. "

I don't use it very often, but I always want to keep a trump card against large ships.Stacking Explorer missile pods certainly increases the options for smaller and medium-sized enemies, but it's enough with heavy laser cannons and shotguns.

"So, is Black Lotus going to strengthen it?"

"The EML on the bow of the ship will be hard to get better, but the laser cannons and shields everywhere will need to be converted to military-grade ones."

"I'm sure that will greatly enhance Black Lotus' combat power.We still have plenty of room for generator output, so we can do something about it. "

"It would be nice if the mother ship could be more powerful... but isn't it over-specific?"

"Archicoenai"

If there is room for strengthening even when trying to become over-specific, it is the gamer's nature that I would like to strengthen.For me now, it's not a game, it's a reality, but anyway, if something more powerful exists, it's natural that I want to use it.Specmania? That's a strange word.

"It may be an overspec for space bandits, but we're not the only ones fighting."

"Well, that's also true. I want you to leave the crystalline organism alone."

"Not only space monsters, but they can also take part in conflicts with other countries."

What are you going to do?

"Sometimes."

In fact, in the Tamene system, where we met Mimi and Elma, we took part in a battle with the Federation of neighboring Belém.I didn't have to run, but I was desperate to make money back then.Now... Hmm, if the system you're staying in is in the middle of a conflict, it's going to be tough to get out of here.You're a gold star anyway.

"That's all I need. I want a lightweight power armor that can shake my sword while wearing it."

"... are you going to increase your ability to fight in your own flesh?"

"I don't like it either. But if you don't, you'll die.I don't like it either! "

I'll tell you twice because it's important.Thank you. You have more chances to fight here alive.I don't want anything, but it's actually increasing, so we have to take measures.

"I should have accepted Miriam's offer."

Magic training. Look, Mimi, think about it. "

Mimi tilted her neck.

"Suppose I had the strength to practice magic.You have the power to wipe out one mountain in your own flesh. "

"Yes"

"What do you think would happen if the public knew you could do that?"

"Eh? Um...."

Mimi wrinkles between her eyebrows to reflect on the sudden question.

"If that happens, will the Imperial Army leave us alone?"

"The Empire itself will not be left alone, rather than the Imperial Army.In some cases, it can be considered dangerous to turn from darkness to darkness.Even now, my personal combat skills may be a little out of control, but they're still within common sense.Not yet. But it's obviously out of common sense to blow up mountains alive - that is, destroy colonies? "

Reactive warhead firepower can sometimes even be used to destroy spacecraft alive.It may even be possible to sneak into the Imperial Capital and blow up the Imperial Castle.The Empire will never forgive you for wandering around like a wild dog in such a dangerous existence.If I'm an Empire, I'll put a collar on somehow, and if I can't, I'll use any hand to turn it off.

"Sure, I don't know what's gonna happen."

"That's the kind of road that that super evil thing points to.That's why I categorically refuse. "

With that in mind, I send my gaze to the super nasty creature in the corner of the dining room where the meeting is taking place.Visual cumminghaaaaa!

"The power to blow one mountain at a time is too much, but the lightweight power armor is still within common sense.At least it's less viable than full life.I don't want to fight biological weapons anymore. "

Say, brother, I'm home intact.

"I don't want to die and I don't want to hurt you, so I'm desperate to avoid an attack.If you get a blow like that, it'll be ground meat. "

I survived that harsh environment.I'll never do that again.

"Well, it's been a long time, but the next thing I want is a high-tech system with plenty of military tech, or a commercial hub system with a high probability of acquiring state-of-the-art technology."

"I see. Nearby, the Galais system is a high-tech system with plenty of military technology.The Commercial Hub system... is a little farther away, but in the Mira system. "

"Why don't you use the gateway?"

The Gateway allows you to travel to distant systems in an instant.The Glakkan Empire has built a gateway network of gateways across vast territory, so with it, systems that are too far away to travel in a normal way using hyperdrives will come in.

"Oh, that's right. Um, then...."

Mimi smiles bitterly when she's operating her tablet. What?

Then what?

Imperial capital is the best.

"Reject"

I don't want to be near the Imperial Capital because I'm sure I'll get in trouble again.The assassination attempt on the Emperor and his involvement in it, or the abduction of Empress Luciada and its recall, are decided by such a development.I definitely don't want to get caught up in that.

"Then the Galay or Mira systems are the closest."

"I see, there are two possible destinations.Do you have any other comments? "

"If you want to earn Enel, you can go to the border conflict zone or go to a system where space bandits are active, but I don't think it's a good idea to strengthen your gear."

"Nothing in particular from us. What about Wee?"

"Hmm, nothing in particular. If you go to a high-tech system that is resistant to military tech, you'll see a lot."

Elma and the mechanic sisters have no particular opinions.

"I'm interested in the commercial hub system... and I think there's a lot of unusual food."

Hmm, that's true.

In the commercial hub system, where all sorts of things are gathered, carbonated drinks may also be handled.The fact that carbonated drinks were available in the Sierra system doesn't mean they weren't on any logistics at all.Well, hopes seem thin.

"Well, which way are we going?"

The Galay system, probably a high-tech system resistant to military tech, is cheaper.The Commercial Hub system offers more options, but the price of the goods increases as a share of the transportation costs.However, military grade items are probably not available in the Commercial Hub system.Military-grade goods are almost never in the hands of traders because companies wholesale them directly to the military.

"Galay system for quality and price, Mira system for choice."

"Shouldn't we go to the Galley system and then to the Mila system?"

"Hmm, maybe that's better.It may be more efficient to search the Mira system for something that was not available in the Galay system.The Commercial Hub system will make it easier to gather information. "

"Oh, that dialog really looks like a mercenary or an operator."

"I'm growing up too."

Fufu, Mimi is very good at her chest.Yeah, it's growing.

Then the next destination is the Galley system.

I almost heard a call from my small information terminal.Dane! It sounds like you're still going to get a Tykick or a butt.

"This call..."

No way, I take the small information terminal out of the jacket pocket and look at the scary screen.

There was a name that I didn't want to see.

"What's wrong?"

"I mean, what kind of ringtone... from who?"

Elma asked me that, so I put a small information terminal where everybody can see it.

Hee

Elma, who had seen the name displayed on the screen, said so and made a disgusting face.Mimi has a subtle expression that can't be said, and the mechanic sisters also look up at the ceiling and laugh bitterly.

That's right. Right.It's not strange to come here because a massive space bandit has rampaged.I thought I'd ignore it, but I was afraid of the rest, so I gave up and pressed the incoming button.

In doing so, a holographic display mounted in the cafeteria was activated to project a hologram of a blonde beauty in white uniform.The sword at her waist appeals to her that she is noble.

Good evening, Captain Hiro. I see you again.

She smiles with a smile when she says so.

"... yes, of course, Commander Serena"

It's troublesome again. Absolutely. Definitely.
