Chapter 1217.

[Alarm! Alert, the airship is entering a level one state of emergency, please do not leave the cabin!

This emergency alert caused Wang Chen’s gaze to freeze, and he had a bad feeling.

The state of emergency for ordinary civilian airships was divided into five levels, with level one belonging to the highest level of danger, which usually meant that the ship was facing a destruction situation, or had encountered an attack by interstellar pirates.

The possibility of the former was extremely low, because the safety factor of a space cruise ship like the FarStar was very high, and the accidents that caused the destruction of the ship due to its own malfunctions were few and far between, comparable to winning the lotto jackpot.

Interstellar piracy, on the other hand, is a tumor that has plagued the empire for hundreds of years!

Interstellar pirates have existed for a long time, and divided into large and small countless gangs of forces, like a blood-sucking gadfly, from time to time in the empire’s huge body to sting on a bite.

Every year, many merchant ships, cargo ships and cruise ships were attacked and plundered by pirates, and the losses were quite large.

The top management of the empire was also very annoyed with the interstellar pirates, but the latter were very difficult to eliminate, and even if they took the trouble to finish off a few, new gangs soon popped up.

Over the centuries the empire had expended a great deal of manpower and material resources, and had never been able to solve this tumor.

It is said that many of the interstellar pirates are supported by the Star Alliance, which is hostile to the Holy Light Empire, and are even organized by the Alliance themselves.

In addition, many imperial aristocrats and plutocrats have inextricable relationships with certain pirate organizations.

Very complicated.

Wang Dust did not expect this ordinary trip, actually encountered the threat of interstellar pirates.

It really felt like winning the lottery.

The luck was too bad!

When he took off the access meter, a new tip popped up on the display on the wall of the cabin.

[The state of emergency has been canceled.]

It’s fine?

Wang Dust was slightly stunned.

However, a keen intuition told him that things were not that simple, much less a false alarm from the ship’s system.

After thinking about it, Wang Dust quickly took out the longsword from his backpack.

This standardized longsword was the only weapon he possessed, and although it belonged to the cheapest mass-produced products, it could still give him a few more points of self-protection.

And when Wang Chen tried to open the hatch to go out and investigate, his heart sank.

The hatch was actually locked!

Wang Chuan tried several times, but not only did the portal not have any response, even the touch screen on the wall was as if it was dead, no matter how it was operated, there was no feedback.

Such a situation meant that the FarStar’s mastermind had been taken over by an outsider, and then rejected all the commands submitted by the passengers.

The cabin that Wang Chen was staying in became a prison!

He had become a caged bird.

Only in such a bad situation, Wang Chen did not lose his cool.

He tried to re-connect to the Star Ocean Network, but the standard access device in the cabin or the personal terminal he brought with him were all in a state of data blocking, making it impossible to communicate with the outside world.

As this route was not feasible, Wang Chen rummaged through the items in the cabin again.

Unfortunately, they were all useless.

At least it didn’t help the situation he was facing.

Just as Wang Chen was rummaging through the cabinets, suddenly the hatch opened automatically and a black figure appeared in the doorway.

Wang Dust turned suddenly and came face to face with the other party.

The uninvited guest’s entire body, including his head, was tightly wrapped in a set of black battle armor, and he was holding a high-powered assault rifle, with ghostly blue fire jumping from his goggles, revealing a hint of teasing and mockery.

“Look what I’ve caught, a young tender chicken from the garrison, it tastes good like that!”

The visitor aimed his blackened muzzle at Wang Dust, and his raspy voice came out from inside his helmet: “Kneel down and call your father, and I’ll consider giving you a chance to lick the faggot!”

Wang Dust noticed that on the other party’s chest armor, there was a flaming skull branded on it.

This was the most commonly used logo pattern of interstellar pirates!

He couldn’t help but smile.

At the moment of revealing his smile, Wang Chuan suddenly stepped forward, and the longsword he held in his hand then drew a dazzling arc of light, chopping at the pirate warrior with incomparably bad breath in a swift manner.

Although the pirate warrior did not put Wang Dust in his eyes, but the combat experience is very rich, the reaction is even more rapid, immediately pulled the trigger.

As for Wang Dust’s surprise attack, the pirate warrior did not care in the slightest.

Because he wore this set of armor, able to withstand close-range small high-energy weapon strikes, even if he stood and let Wang Dust cut with a sword, cut for three days and three nights do not want to break the defense.

And he could blast Wang Dust to pieces with a single shot!

However, just at the moment when the high-energy assault rifle’s energy was about to be triggered, his head suddenly flew up high.

Wang Chuan’s sword struck the pirate warrior’s neck, slicing through his neck armor like hot oil slicing through tofu, and chopping off the latter’s head in the process.

Under normal circumstances, the longsword in his hand could not penetrate even civilian-grade protective armor, not to mention military armor.

It was only when Wang Chuan used the power of the second layer of the Heavenly Dragon Vajra Technique and added the power of the second ring of spiritual energy to the sword that he was able to create such an incredible miracle!

Snap!

As the pirate’s body crumpled to the ground, the longsword in Wang Dust’s hand cracked inch by inch, turning into countless pieces that fell.

This weapon had withstood a force that far exceeded its own limits, and was considered to have accomplished its mission.

But Wang Chen’s crisis was not over, he grabbed the high-powered assault rifle that fell to the ground as fast as he could.

The empire’s entire population is martial and is in a constant state of war, so it attaches great importance to the national defense education of its citizens, and students who have reached the age of fourteen are required to undergo regular basic military training.

Although the original body is a student, but also touched the assault rifle, know the basic use of the method.

However, when Wang Chen picked up this weapon, he ended up realizing that he couldn’t unlock it at all – the biological information didn’t match.

In other words, this high-powered assault rifle came with a bio-detection function, and could only be used by those who were bound to the bio-information.

It was a piece of scrap metal when it fell into Wang Chen’s hands!

Kam!

Wang Dust cursed and dropped the assault rifle in his hand before drawing the sword that the pirate was carrying.

In fact, he wanted to strip down the battle armor worn by the other party and put it on himself, even without a helmet, he could greatly improve his own defense ability.

Nay time was too late.

At this moment, Wang Dust had heard the voice coming from outside: “Justin, are you alright?”

There could be more than one pirate who appeared in the first class area, and they obviously had information about the passengers, so the guy who had just been decapitated by Wang Dust was able to tell his identity.

Things were in trouble!

Wang Dust bent down, and the moment the second pirate’s figure appeared in the doorway, he pranced forward like a sturdy cheetah and swung his sword at the other’s legs.
