Chapter 139 Trading Day! The Metal Fleet Attacks the Scarlet Galaxy! (Subscribe)

Outskirts of the Scarlet Galaxy.

A disarmed and undefended cargo ship slowly approached.

"They're coming!"

Inside the ship, Eva and Xianyue and Baihong, who were disguised as metal men, quickly discovered the approach of a fleet of pirates through a space detector.

Leading the way were two modified Stellar-class I Star Destroyers, named "Spider" and "Centipede" respectively.

There are a total of 20 planetary space battleships clustered together to form a formation. It is obvious that the Blood Skull Star Pirates have come out in full force!
Before long, the entire fleet of pirates surrounded the small cargo ship, like a lamb among wolves.

"They sent a communication."

Eva was not afraid. After operating the system skillfully, she connected to the communication information from the Spider Star Destroyer. A familiar figure was projected on the screen.

It was the leader of the Blood Skull Pirates, Augustus!

"Welcome to the Scarlet Galaxy! Let's not waste any more time on the formalities. Have you brought the 10 billion Galaxy Coins ransom I requested?"

Augustus was smoking a cigar, with several scantily clad women serving him. His legs were brazenly crossed on the table, and his boots covered in blood and mud were placed in front of Eva.

"I've brought them all! But I need to check on all the metal captives first to make sure they're safe."

Eva said this calmly and showed Augustus the 10 billion galactic coins in ransom she was carrying.

The Galaxy Coin is made of a special polymer suitable for use in space. It is indestructible and impervious to water and fire. The surface of the coin has a map of the Milky Way galaxy painted on it, and it comes with a unique serial number to prevent counterfeiting.

These 10 billion Galaxy Coins are all cash, and the face value of each cash note is as high as tens of millions of Galaxy Coins.

"it is good!"

Augustus nodded slightly, turned his head and called out to his men beside him, who soon brought hundreds of metal captives who were tied up.

Eva carefully checked the condition of these metal captives and found that not only were a dozen of them missing, but they had all been subjected to various forms of abuse and torture. Their bodies were covered with scars, and they were listless, with numb limbs, and they probably had not been able to eat normally for some time.

"Hahaha, I'm so sorry! You metal people are really hard to please. I gave them food and meat, but none of them could eat them. They insisted on eating metals and ores. What a wishful thinking! Even I don't have these precious mineral resources! So I can only let them starve with reluctance."

"To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that your metal bodies would quickly rust after death, I wouldn't even consider putting them back. It would probably be more profitable to just sell them as metal."

When Augustus saw Eva's angry face, he burst into laughter.

Originally, he did consider killing all these metal man captives. Their flesh and bones were made of metal, so it would be easier to sell them as metal.

However, after killing a few metal men as guinea pigs for some experiments, Augustus discovered that the bodies of the metal men would quickly rust after death, and would be worthless.

Eva secretly clenched her fists, finding it difficult to control her emotions.

It was Xianyue who patted her shoulder and told her to stay calm.

"Okay, I've shown you the captives. But before the formal transaction, you must immediately notify your Metal Fleet to withdraw 100 miles away. Otherwise, I cannot guarantee the safety of these Metal Captives and your ships."

Augustus looked at Eva leisurely and continued.

How did they know the Metal Fleet was coming too?!

Eva was secretly shocked, and became even more certain that there was a traitor within their Metal Republic. She must find out the damn traitor afterwards!

Under the threat of Augustus using hostages, Eva had no choice but to switch the communication channel and contact the Golden No. 1 battleship led by the Metal Man fleet, asking them to evacuate to a safe distance of one hundred miles.

The astronomical mile is the astronomical unit of length used by all civilizations in the Milky Way. One astronomical mile is approximately 1 million kilometers.

"withdraw!"

At the command of the Metal Man captain, the entire Metal Man fleet had to retreat a full hundred miles.

"Our Metal Fleet has retreated a hundred miles as you requested. Can we start the trade now?"

Eva's brow was filled with anger, but she had no way to deal with these vicious human pirates in front of her.

"We can start now. Next, please have your cargo ships board my Spider Star Destroyer. Once you pay us, we will release you."

Augustus waved his hand, and the entire Spider Star Destroyer quickly approached the cargo ship, showing Eva and the others the space deck for starfighters to dock.

Eva drove the cargo ship and slowly landed on the space deck. Accompanied by Xianyue and Baihong, she got off the ship carrying the ransom.

On the other side, there were also a large number of human pirates armed with blasters, escorting metal captives, led by Hogan, the second-in-command of the Blood Skull Pirates.

In this situation, Eva had no choice but to trust the credit of these human pirates. She stepped forward and handed the ransom to Hogan personally.

Hogan counted the number and confirmed that it was correct before speaking:

"Let go."

The human pirates followed their instructions and released all the metal captives, untied their restraints, and let them regain their freedom.

"call……"

Eva finally breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly let the metal captives board the cargo ship. Now she just wanted to leave this damn place as soon as possible and never wanted to see these human pirates again.

At this moment, the human pirates behind them suddenly rushed forward, surrounded Eva, Crescent Moon and Baihong, and pointed their blasters at their heads.

"What do you mean?!"

Eva asked in shock and anger.

"It doesn't matter. You just paid the ransom for those metal captives, but now you three have become captives too, so they can leave, but you can't."

Hogan said with a wry smile.

Eva suddenly felt as if she had fallen into an icy cave.

Sure enough, these human pirates would never keep their promises, and their target from the beginning was themselves!

At the same time, Xianyue and Baihong looked at each other and attacked without hesitation.

Bang! !

Xianyue ignored the blaster pointed at his head, and thrust out his five fingers like claws, accurately piercing the chest of a human pirate, pulling out his heart and crushing it.

Bai Hong also suddenly raised his leg and kicked, rolling up the vacuum to form an indestructible slashing wave, which instantly tore several human space pirates in half. The fishy internal organs scattered from the cross-section like splashing water.

"Shoot! Shoot!" Hogan was furious when he suddenly saw this scene and immediately gave orders loudly.

"Bang Bang Bang!!!"

Suddenly, gunshots rang out one after another, and blaster rifles fired out penetrating particle beams, which were far more powerful than ordinary bullets and were enough to deal with enemies below the satellite level, not to mention ordinary metal men without armed biological strong armor.

Xianyue and Baihong did not dodge or evade, allowing the extremely dense particle beams to hit their bodies without any harm.

Only the magic clothes they were wearing were damaged after being attacked, revealing their true appearance!

"You're not metal people?!"

Hogan finally reacted. No wonder the blaster attacks had no effect on them. It turned out that they were not metal men!

"Tear!!"

As soon as Hogan finished speaking, Crescent Moon, which had reverted to the form of Light War Greymon, swung its claws and easily tore his flesh and bones in half, as easy as tearing paper.

Baihong, who had reverted to the form of MetalGarurumon, rushed into the human space pirate team like a wolf into a flock of sheep. He used his mouth full of steel teeth and his limbs with steel claws to kill the human space pirates one by one like a meat grinder.

"Ahhhh!!!"

The dull sound of flesh being torn and flying, and the shrill screams, were tightly intertwined with each other, echoing on the deck for a long time, like a death ballad from hell.

In less than half a minute, all the human pirates present were slaughtered, leaving only pools of bloody remains. The steaming blood gathered into a trickle, winding its way along.

At the same time as Crescent Moon and White Rainbow took action, Eva had already landed all the Metal Man captives on the cargo ship and quickly started to escape from the Spider Star Destroyer.

"Bang!!"

Inside the Spider Star Destroyer, Augustus, who was originally waiting for his men to collect the ransom, suddenly stood up in anger.

Unexpectedly, those metal men actually invited external help and deceived them.

Those two dragon-like and beast-like creatures of unknown origin both exude a planetary-level aura!

"Attack!! Kill them!"

Augustus roared like thunder and quickly ordered his men to activate the weapon system of the Spider Star Destroyer, targeting Crescent Moon, Rainbow and the cargo ship full of metal men, intending to violently kill them all together!

"withdraw!!"

The Spider Star Destroyer's turbolaser cannon is extremely powerful, comparable to a stellar-level attack. This is not something they can resist, and once hit, they will definitely suffer heavy damage.

Therefore, Xianyue and Baihong did not choose to resist head-on, but instead protected both sides of the cargo ship.

Immediately afterwards, Bai Hong used the power of the space fighter soul in his body to lead Xianyue and the entire cargo ship to instantly jump through space and disappeared on the spot.

"Boom--!!"

Almost in the next second, the Spider Star Destroyer opened fire, covering the location where they were just now, but it missed. The Metal Man and his party had already escaped unscathed, and even the ransom was taken away by Crescent Moon.

"Space-related abilities?!"

Inside the Spider Star Destroyer, Augustus was so angry that he almost vomited blood. Not only did all the metal captives escape, but even the ransom was lost!

Who would have thought that the foreign aid invited by the Metal Man possessed extremely rare space abilities and escaped through space jump in an instant!
They probably already set up a space jump point on the side of the Metal Man fleet, and have now escaped to a hundred miles away. Even if Augustus wanted to chase them, he would not be able to catch up. What's more, their pirate fleet would be dead if they confronted the Metal Man fleet head-on.

"Go to hell!! Go to hell!!"

In a rage, Augustus drew a plasma lightsaber from his waist and slashed directly at the female slaves serving him. He would not feel satisfied until he had chopped them all into pieces.

"Boss... Boss... It's bad. The Metal Man fleet is approaching us quickly. It looks like they want to attack us!"

Bob, the wretched man who was Augustus' confidant, was so frightened that he didn't even dare to breathe, but the situation was urgent, so he had to bite the bullet and report it.

"what?!"

Augustus, covered in blood, suddenly came to his senses and checked the space detector. As expected, he found that a fleet of metal men a hundred stars away was rapidly approaching the Scarlet Galaxy where they were. They were very aggressive and it seemed that they would never give up!
"Hahaha!! Well done, well done!! Pass my order, all warships immediately withdraw to the Scarlet Planet and let these metal men in!"

Instead of being frightened, Augustus burst into hysterical laughter.

If they were outside the Scarlet Galaxy and encountered such a massive fleet of metal men, they would definitely run as far away as possible and would not dare to act rashly.

But now they have arrived at the Scarlet Galaxy, which is the territory of their Blood Skull Star Pirates. Augustus has a hundred ways to make sure that the Metal Man Fleet will never return!

"Yes!"

Bob immediately conveyed Augustus' order, and the pirate fleet led by the Spider Star Destroyer turned around and retreated hurriedly, fleeing back to the Scarlet Planet.

……

At the same time, on the other side, the metal man fleet, which had to stay a hundred miles away, set out and sailed towards the Scarlet Galaxy.

Now all the metal man captives have escaped safely through the space jump point set up by Chu Xu, without any worries.

Now it's time to teach those human pirates a lesson!

Inside the Golden Battleship No. 1, Eva, Xianyue and Baihong all came to the control room and met with Chu Xu, Liuxing and Gavin, the Metal Man Space Force Admiral who was in charge of commanding the entire Metal Man fleet this time.

"This mission to rescue the Metal Men prisoners is thanks to you. On behalf of the Metal Men Republic, I would like to express my sincerest gratitude to you."

Gavin was also a male golden metal man of extraordinary status. After seeing Xianyue and Baihong, he bowed deeply to them.

"Leave the next mission to us! This time we must completely wipe out the Bloody Skull Pirates that have plagued the Milky Way for so many years!"

Gavin said indignantly.

"General Gavin, you must be careful. When we first entered the Scarlet Galaxy, I could clearly sense the presence of a special energy somewhere in it. It is very dangerous. It is very likely the last trump card of the Blood Skull Pirates."

The crescent moon spoke.

Gavin nodded, turned around and continued to command the entire fleet to maintain combat mode and move quickly.

An hour later, the Metal Fleet finally crossed a distance of one hundred star miles and arrived at the Scarlet Galaxy.

At this time, the pirate fleet had disappeared, and the gates of the entire Scarlet Galaxy were wide open and completely defenseless, as if luring the Metal Man fleet in.
