Chapter 701 - Purple Fire Surrenders
Purple Fire Surrenders
TL : GoldenLung
The 33 Sky Wings warship that had flown far away had already slowed down and made a turn.
Everyone inside the 33 Sky Wings warship was dumbstruck as they watched this scene.
What is this?
What did Lan Xuanyu do just now? When he released the interference missile, he had placed an antimatter missile among them. And it wasn’t a direct attack, it was like a naval mine, it was released alongside the interference missiles.
He knew that the other party would catch up and wouldn’t waste their cannon fire. Then, the scene before him appeared.
Lan Xuanyu had used antimatter missiles before. He had used them the last time they used the Tang Sect warship to escape from Sin Planet. It was also that explosion that caused the entire Sin Planet to be in a complete mess. But it wasn’t that powerful!
Just one antimatter missile was enough to wipe out the entire Purple Flame pirate crew.
The five surveillance warships were torn apart, and three of them that were at the core of the explosion had completely disappeared.
One of the Meteor-class assault warships was severely damaged and it seemed like it didn’t have much battle power left. There were also a few other reconnaissance warships that were damaged and were blown away. None of them were intact.
“What did the Tang Sect give us? The power of this thing is too terrifying,” Bing Tianliang said in a daze. He was the one who controlled the antimatter missile just now.
Lan Xuanyu muttered to himself, “I originally wanted to place two, but I couldn’t bear to. Thankfully, it wasn’t two, otherwise…”
Otherwise, the Purple Flame Pirates would have been completely annihilated. The latest version of the Tang Sect’s antimatter missile was simply too powerful. Even if it attacked a more powerful warship, it would probably be extremely destructive to their protective barrier, right?
Lan Xuanyu swallowed his saliva and his eyes lit up. It was worth it! 10 purple emblems for an antimatter missile. This was really worth it! This was not something that could be measured with money.
He now completely believed that this price was just as Deng Bo had said, a special gift from the Tang Sect. The uses of this thing were simply too powerful and terrifying.
“Go, capture their flagship. Open fire. Capture as many warships as you can.”
At this moment, Shen Junjie, the captain of the Purple Flame Pirates, had a miserable look on his face. In the big explosion just now, the entire ship was rolling violently, and there were many pirate crew members who were knocked to death and injured. He was also hit by the violent collision because he didn’t even put on his seatbelt when he thought he had the absolute advantage.
A huge hole had appeared on the side of the warship. Although that area was quickly sealed, Shen Junjie was completely dumbfounded.
He obviously knew what it was, but he guessed that there were at least five antimatter missiles there.
Anti-matter missiles were strategic weapons that the Douluo Federation had banned. It wasn’t that there weren’t any on Sin Planet, but there were very few of them and they were all in the hands of the seven Pirate Lords. Only they could control such powerful weapons.
Even in the Douluo Federation, there were very few warships that could be equipped with anti-matter missiles. Not only was the cost of manufacturing this thing expensive, but it was also very difficult to produce. One mistake and there was a risk of explosion.
His mind went blank and he saw that the warship with 33 wings was flying back.
Not only were its wings in perfect state, it even looked like a 33-winged demon descending from hell.
What should he do? He didn’t know what to do either! Should he continue fighting? When the antimatter missiles destroyed his protective barrier, almost half of his weapon system was destroyed. More importantly, the energy reserves of the warship were almost exhausted and the defense system had collapsed. How could he resist?
“Boss…” A pirate whose face was covered in blood struggled and called out to Shen Junjie.
“Let’s, let’s surrender…” The pirate captain, who was high-spirited a minute ago, could only make the most unwilling choice with a pale face because he didn’t want to die!
The capturing shell landed firmly on the Meteor-class warship and completely captured this huge warship. Only two of the other pirate warships were able to escape. They fled quickly and had no intention of saving the flagship. There were still four other warships left. One of them was severely damaged and it was unclear if there were any living people inside. The other three were also damaged in many places and definitely wouldn’t be able to escape. They wouldn’t even be able to block one shot.
There was no doubt that this battle was a great victory for the 33 Sky Wings. The reason for their victory was not due to experience or how ingenious their control over the warship was, but because they relied on Tang Sect’s incomparably powerful technology. Antimatter missiles!
If not for the antimatter missiles, Lan Xuanyu knew that they wouldn’t be a match for the Purple Flame Pirates. They were experienced pirates too! With an absolute advantage in numbers, they could display all sorts of tactics and make it impossible for them to fight back.
Then, Lan Xuanyu gave the order to accept the Purple Flame Pirates’ surrender. He ordered Shen Junjie to bring all his pirates and squeeze themselves inside the first two reconnaissance warships that he captured.
There were still over 500 surviving pirates, and the two reconnaissance warships were naturally packed with people. It was too crowded, but living was always a good thing. It was better than becoming cosmic dust!
After all the pirates were gathered, Lan Xuanyu controlled the 33 Sky Wings to complete the traction on the captured pirate warships. He also pulled the severely damaged warship.
The results were as follows: Captives, a Meteor-class assault warship, 65% intact, two completely intact reconnaissance spaceships, two 70% intact, one 60% intact and one last 40% intact. There were seven warships in total.
After that, Lan Xuanyu and his team started plundering.
They were actually glad that they didn’t use two antimatter missiles just now. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be much left.
They finally found something good. As the flagship of the Purple Flame Pirates, almost all the valuable items were here.
In the world of pirates, rare metals were the real currency. Over 40 tons of high purity metals had allowed them to earn a fortune. Then, the warship was equipped with all sorts of missiles and the like, so they naturally emptied everything.
There were only 33 of them on the 33 Sky Wings warship, and the space was huge, not to mention Lan Xuanyu’s Ring of Fate.
After looting all of the warships, Lan Xuanyu’s team had earned over 50 tons of rare metals. If they used these rare metals to forge Two-Word Battle Armors, they would have enough for 33 people. Of course, there weren’t many high quality metals that were suitable for their Two-Word Battle Armors, but in terms of resources, they were rich.
By a conservative estimate, these rare metals could be exchanged for at least 100 purple emblems.
No mission was as lucrative as robbing pirates! This was what it meant to seek wealth amidst danger.
Furthermore, their most precious treasure was not these rare metals but the captured warships outside.
“Let’s discuss how we’re going to deal with these warships.” After Lan Xuanyu returned, he immediately gathered everyone together.
There were many ways to deal with these warships, and the simplest way would be to destroy all of them without leaving a trace. If Lan Xuanyu emptied his Ring of Fate, he would only be able to carry one reconnaissance warship.
However, this was all money! In the world of pirates, the most valuable thing was a warship, nothing else.
Having a warship meant having strength and the capital to plunder.
