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

After the movement order is issued, the fleet is divided into a system blockade and an assault force and proceeds as is.Once we arrived in the Sinoskia system, next to the Rifil system, we headed straight for the Space Bandit's stronghold with the attacking forces.

How about this one?

"I don't know. I don't think there's much resistance."

"Really? It seems that the situation in the Rifil system is somehow being transmitted, and we are waiting for you."

"I think I'm pretty much a muddy guy.What does Elma think? "

When she said that to Mimi who tilted her neck and shook the subject to Elma, she said, "That's right." She thought a little and opened her mouth.

"I don't think it's a completely barren shell, but I don't think there's much resistance."

"Elma thinks the same way as Hiro-sama."

"No matter how big the red flags are as space bandits, they're not enough to collide properly with a full army.If we know they're coming, we'll pull up the supplies we need to lift and get out of here. "

"I see. So this time it's going to be easy?"

"That's another story.If I were a space bandit, I'd harass you. "

"Harassment?"

"If an army breaks into the base, I'll try to self-destruct it, or I'll set off a grenade in a place where the army is likely to form a formation.Well, I think it's next door or another system next door. "

"Well, all of a sudden, you need to be prepared with manpower and materials.Probably enough to carry out an immediate form of harassment. "

Is it a ready-to-use harassment?

"Mimi, there's a lot of illegal stuff at Starbase.It's like, "Oh, my God."

"Ah, I'm getting a bad feeling about this."

"I don't think I'll get the singing crystal because it's a rare item, but I don't know what's coming out..."

I sympathize with the incoming troops.A normal BC weapon would be cute, but there's a lot worse in it.Even within the scope of the knowledge I have learned within SOL, there is no time for enumeration, and there is a possibility that there is something more dangerous in this world.

Specifically, what kind of bad things are there? Energy organisms that parasite the corpses of humans and other organisms with more than a certain amount of intelligence, transform the body into a grotesque, and grow more and more.The zombie in the movie that parasitizes the body and modifies it, killing other life forms with it, and adding to it, is also a pale blue life form, right?Probably made it appear as a homage to some famous game in SOL, but with so much fucking difficulty, the players finally gave up suppressing it in white warfare and decided to wipe out the big mining vessels that set the stage for the event.

There were other highly destructive space spiders, murderous aliens whose body fluids melted the ship's hull and armor... oh, there were zombies, too.The boulders were cleaned without a laser weapon and power armor before they could physically and biochemically defend themselves.

"There seems to be some sort of biological weapon.Worst case scenario is if the victim is booby trapped. "

"The victim?"

"They put bombs, poison gas, more dangerous stuff on their merchandise, and then they bam."

That's how Elma opened her hand.

"I don't know... but I'm a space bandit"

Anything you come with them is an ant.Don't expect them to have any reason or ethics.

"Soldiers are tough."

"That's right. Whatever Commander Serena tells me, I'm not going to do a white war this time."

If it's a Starfleet, we don't know what the Starfleet stronghold is.Whatever happens, I don't want to break in.Well, a little biological weapon is often enough.

About two hours later.

"It's dirty fireworks....."

"I don't know what to expect."

Wow.

On the main screen of the cockpit was footage of a space bandit base being gunned down by an incredible fire.

Yeah, it was exactly what we expected.

This Starbase offensive was quickly completed for space combat.The Starfleet were mostly pulling up, and nothing could counter them as well as the turrets installed in the Starfleet base.There was no sign of a small or medium-sized vessel, and the shelling of a large vessel left almost nothing behind.

The problem is that after the Marines broke in, they gave the "merchandise" a drug or a virus that mutated the organism into irrational monsters.

The Imperial Air Force Marines that entered the Starbase encountered biological weapons that were mutated by humans and other species early on.After about an hour of defense at the entry point for analysis, Lieutenant-Colonel Serena chose the immediate withdrawal of the Marines and the destruction of the base by long-range fire.Especially in a seemingly inexpensive intrusive operation, it seems that we cannot afford to drain our forces at random.

Well, if I had enough room to prepare such a thing as a booby trap, I would have carefully destroyed the equipment storing the data or raised the data.I think Lieutenant-Colonel Serena's decision is reasonable.

As a result, the stationary target firing training is being held in front of us.The scene of the asteroid-modified Starbase exploding in dazzling light under the illumination of a large caliber laser gun is quite overwhelming.

"Oops, it exploded flashy.I wonder if he blew it up on oxygen or fuel or ammunition. "

"Is it okay to do it so flashy?It was breeding inside, and it was spreading all over the place. "

"Is there a biological weapon that is exposed to laser bombardment and still capable of spreading into space?"

"Well? Even so, it would be impossible to attach it to the hull with the shields blocking it.It will disappear when it touches the cruise output shield, right? "

If that's what they say, yes.

Contact with a security output shield while in port or descending on the ground can cause fine paralysis and burns, but most living things are not safe when they are physically touched by a spacecraft shield when traveling through space.The exception is probably some astronauts, like crystalline organisms.Oh, Mae might have a wangchan.Perhaps all the artificial skin that makes my clothes and exterior look human will peel off.

"But this time it's delicious."

"There were hardly any bandits out there, so you didn't make any bounty or catch."

"I'll get my salary for being in custody.Well, it's not a bad thing to think that money is rolling in with pleasure, is it? "

"That's right....."

"Are you worried?"

"This time, I'm worried about the next system.Space bandits aren't stupid.Some kind of hand will come.I can't wait to be licked like this. "

"I see. That's right."

The question is, what kind of hands will the Space Bandits use?There's nothing wrong with using your hands that you would never do in a regular army war.

"If Hiro-sama is a space bandit, how do we deal with it?"

"I'd be the one running away, but I guess that's the only reason I got scared by my Space Bandit buddies.Even if that's the best solution, the position of a large space bandit might make it impossible.At least we need to get the army to blow it up..... "

That said, even if the red flag fights the regular army head-on in space battles, there is no chance of winning.Of course, you'll come by hand, but now.

"I would use a crystal singing like I did to the Belém Federation before to bring in a powerful third force, but I don't always have that kind of thing."

"That's true, but there's no point in using that dangerous material in the middle of a group of enemies.I don't think it's going to be easy without pilots and airframes that can jump into the center of the Imperial Space Force's formation on a single ship like Hiro. "

"Sure. That's what Hiro-sama was talking about?"

"It is possible that we will scatter a lot of flash lightning using a reaction warhead.Or they could launch a saturation attack with an Explorer missile loaded with reaction warheads. "

The reaction warhead itself seems to be a so-called dead technology.I hear that the manufacturing methods and things have been spreading a long time ago, and if there is a little machine tool - a technical standard in this world - manufacturing itself is easy.

It seems that the material used as the material for the reaction warhead is not readily available because there are sales regulations in the table, but it will not be difficult for Space Bandits to obtain material that would make the transaction itself illegal.I think it's possible to produce it like the world's best made assault rifles that were spreading in conflict zones around the world.

Still, space bandits don't use missiles and torpedoes with reaction warheads because they're too powerful to blow up their prey with each loot.Same reason I rarely use reactive warhead torpedoes against Starfleet opponents.

But there is a good chance that the bandits will not hesitate to use them if they are hunted down by powerful enemies, such as the Imperial Space Force.Then inexpensive Seeker missiles turn into super powerful saturated attack weapons.It's hard to be so horrible.

"Well, the Imperial Space Force wouldn't shut up if we operated a large number of Explorer missiles with reaction warheads.I don't think so. "

Of course, using such a forbidden hand would destroy the Red Flag Space Bandits.They should send a regular army, not an army gathered around an Independent Starfleet led by Lieutenant-Colonel Serena.If that happens, the Red Flag Space Bandits won't survive.As a demonstration, the necks of all the members will be hung from the pillars.In a metaphorical sense.No, I might actually hang myself.

"After all this time, we'll need to be careful in the next system.I can feed Lieutenant-Colonel Serena to the extent that the Empire doesn't take it seriously.You're going to hit something with that subtle line. "

"Yeah, not all space bandits are stupid."

"Usually, it looks like a bunch of paparazzi that just feel like haha anymore."

"Papparapar or Larippa... but if you're a big space bandit, there's a lot of wicked people working there.Otherwise, we can't run a large space bandit organization. "

Is that what it is?

"That's what it is. Just be careful not to be alarmed."

Unlike the SOL of the game, the Space Bandits of this world have a lot of intelligence... maybe because they're human beings.It could be a tricky trap, so let's be more vigilant.At least we don't get caught and die instantly.
