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

Our second reconnaissance fleet, Major Serena's independent anti-pirate fleet and a fleet of mercenaries, had entered the outlying space with other reconnaissance fleets via the hyperlane from the Izluks system. The first to be reached was the Paks system, which is adjacent to the Izlukes system. Four reconnaissance fleets scrutinized the Pax system and soon confirmed that there were no crystalline lifeforms in the Pax system. There are three hyperlanes extending from the Pax system, including those connected to the Izluks system. Therefore, the four reconnaissance fleets decided to split into two and investigate further.

"The two fleets should work together to cope with the unforeseen situation." "I think so. When moving to the next star system, either fleet will lead first, near the entrance to the hyperlane. "Is it safe to do so?" "Yes. The remaining one is to secure a retreat. Let's assume that the leading role will take turns." "Let's do it."

There is such an interaction between the commander of the first reconnaissance fleet and the commander of the second reconnaissance fleet-Major Serena, and the first and second reconnaissance fleets carefully proceed with reconnaissance in the remote areas.

It was about thirty-six hours after leaving the Imperial Space Force Outpost of the Izluks system.

"Sector C seems to be being pushed! A request for rescue has been issued!" "Tell Mei that we are good and we should cover him there. Let's manage to keep it."

They pass through the rush of small crystal creatures that rush, and crush the individuals who escape from the group and try to close their path with continuous shooting with a shotgun. Fragments of the shattered crystal creature hit the shield of Krishna and flew off.

"It's not like this!" "It's been more than 24 hours since I said it. It's aging."

Thirty-six hours from the Izlukes system. A second reconnaissance fleet, which conducted a preliminary reconnaissance on the Gargaol system in the frontier space four kilometers ahead of the Islux system in a hyperlane, encountered a crystal creature and immediately entered combat. They were ambushing at the entrance to the hyperlane. Immediately after entering the battle, the second reconnaissance fleet sent a rescue request via subspace communication to the first reconnaissance fleet waiting in the previous system, the Risimus system. Fortunately, the time it takes to move from Lisimus to Gargaol is as short as about fifteen minutes, so we'll be able to manage it if we can withstand it. So what we're doing in this confusion is to plunge into hordes of enemies to keep crystal creatures out of battleships, cruisers, and large ships like Black Lotus. are doing. Basically, crystal creatures have the property of plunging into the closest prey, so if you shoot and fire with a shotgun or heavy laser cannon, you can attract a considerable number. By the way, if you destroy a few while passing, the crystal creatures around it will also link and turn on you, so you can attract more enemies.

"The number of crystal creatures chasing is ridiculous !?" "OK, no problem"

The total number of crystal creatures that are attacking is much smaller than the flock that fought in the Izluk system, but their strength is much less than when fighting in the Izruk system. If the battle goes on as it is, cruisers and battleships with large blind spots may be damaged. So you have to stop it from getting into a fierce battle. Change the attitude control from auto to manual, and turn the ship over as it flees, facing the swarm of crystal creatures.

"Olaoraora!"

He fires four heavy laser cannons and two large shotguns at the crystal creature that sneaks straight into Krishna. You don't have to aim for a swarm that just fills your sight. If you shoot it, it will hit you.

"Hi, Hiro! Well, before! Not behind! Crystal life!" "OK, OK"

Spraying attitude control thrusters while cutting and shattering a group of crystal creatures to avoid crystal creatures rushing from multiple directions. Watching the radar tells you in which direction the crystal creatures will plunge, so you can control your ship so that it is off course. e? Do you have to look at the front? You just have to find the front in the corner of your sight, because you're shooting.

“……” “……” “… Captain, that ’s what” “…… I don't understand the meaning a little”

I and Robbitson cried when I saw his ship in command of the fleet at Restalias. It was astonishing that his ship had plunged into the herd of crystal creatures and began to attract much of it, but on the contrary he began to counterattack the herd of crystal creatures following his ship. Moreover, in the middle of a group of crystal creatures. While flying backwards at tremendous speed, it cuts off herds of crystal creatures with the fire power of a heavy cruiser, and keeps escaping the assault of crystal creatures that plunge from the top, bottom, left and right with mysterious avoidance maneuvers. And before it was completely surrounded and unavoidable, it broke through herds of crystal creatures and began dragging many crystal creatures.

"The silver sword wing assault medal is not Date." "Really ... I wonder what's going on in his head."

Jumping into a group of crystal creatures on a single plane isn't crazy, but doing a reversal attack in that group ... or, if you're not surprised by his actions.

"I can't afford to waste his struggle. Concentrate the fire on Sector A and push them back. Let the mercenaries help Sector C."

A flash exploded in Sector B, and the herd of crystal creatures following him sneaked away. Apparently he fired an anti-ship reaction torpedo at the school.

"The first reconnaissance squad will arrive soon.

His ship attacks a group of crystal creatures that have been reduced in number. I'm still not optimistic, but it seems that I can survive this place safely.

"It was quite thrilling." "... yes" "... yes"

The voices of Elma and Mimi replying are not encouraging. It seems that they are not yet used to fighting crystal creatures. Small crystal creatures are not so powerful in their shooting attacks if you only care about the body, and you are not afraid so much. I haven't even made any tactical moves. Well, it's a thrilling because if you are chased by such a flock, you can explode with one mistake. Later on, thanks to the first reconnaissance squad rushing in as scheduled, we managed to get past the ambush of the crystal creature. When the first reconnaissance squad arrives, the prey is reduced, and before that, it was good to use only one tiger torpedo torpedo reaction torpedo to earn the number of defeats. It is said that the Imperial Army will give you what you use, and if you are too generous, it's no use. Black Lotus has plenty of ammunition, and I'd like to release it in this reconnaissance line and earn more defeats. There were no prior arrangements for bonuses depending on the number of defeats, but if you play a significant role you can expect some bonuses. Maybe. It may be better to urge the Major later. With that in mind, move Krishna to the lower rear of Black Lotus and activate the auto-docking system.

"May, ask for a ship." Open the hatch

The hatch at the bottom rear of Black Lotus opened, and the storage in the hanger was completed automatically according to the guidance. Well, don't limit your arrival to auto. Look at this stability. With no accidents that can afford ... No, sometimes accidents happen. Sometimes. Well the size of Krishna will be fine unless there are so strange external factors.

"Hey, both of us. You've landed."

The two sigh greatly. Did you get out of tension?

`` It's okay because the enemies in this place have been destroyed, but there may be other swarms in the system, and reinforcements may come from adjacent systems, so please rest both so that you can move quickly at that time "Why are you doing so well ..." "It's warm to me that level of fighting.

I was tired, but it was only twenty minutes or so. I'm still fine.

"Well, get used to it. What a small variety is like a slow-moving seeker missile." "Is that so .........?" "Yes, I can't avoid a laser, but a small variety isn't as unreasonable as a laser. No, it doesn't work as fast as a seeker missile. It's okay if it doesn't vibrate. "" Ummm ...? "

Mimi seems to be hard to understand.

"Anyway, make sure both of you rest your mind and body. I'll instruct Tina on maintenance and ammunition." "I'll leave it ..." "Okay ..."

I head for the Black Lotus hanger, leaving the two lazy people in the cockpit. It's okay because you haven't been hit, but it's convenient to be able to replenish and maintain ammunition. It was expensive, but it was good to buy Black Lotus. I turned my feet on the hanger with that in mind.
