LEGEND OF KING SYSTEM
238. ROBBING THE ROBBERS.
But just at that moment, the naughty Little Eight rushed in and excitedly shouted, “Bos, we have found some other pirates!”
Xiao Liong casually put away his booty and stared coldly at Little Eight. “In the future, tap before you sign in. Next time, I'll cut off your hand. ”
The criminal jumped in fear and immediately acknowledged the order.
“Pirate? How big is their group? ”
Little Eight nervously replied, “There is a pirate group about half a region in front of us called ‘Fly Fly.’ This group is several years older than us, and they can be considered as professional pirates. ”
Xiao Liong was amused. “Professional pirate? Is there an amateur? ”
“Bos, most pirates are actually not real pirates.
Being a pirate is like wearing a mask. Someone may be broke, though,
have poor economic flows, or have other special purposes, but there are always new pirates emerging for the event.
Once they complete their goals, these pirates usually disappear back into their old lives. It's a very normal occurrence. ”
Xiao Liong's gaze twinkled as he said, “Dark side of the universe.”
Little Eight nodded in agreement. “Bos, so what do you think of this Flying Fish group?”
“Near them and then rob them,” Xiao Liong said before walking out towards the control room with Little Eight immediately following behind.
This amateur pirate has decided that, since he can't help himself, he will probably perform well.
If he was lucky enough, he might even find some opportunities in the future to benefit himself.
The large variety of weaves from Overseas never loosened their cleaning operations from the wandering pirate group.
The presence of pirates greatly hinders the finances of various looms, and quite often, news will appear about some important figures killed by pirates.
Therefore, each loom has its own professional army that specializes in rooting out pirates.
But the pirates are too cunning. In addition to a very powerful group of pirates that are difficult to fight, the,
smaller scale groups never stayed in one place for too long, and the Flying Fish pirate group was no exception to this rule.
“What methods do they apply?”
Xiao Liong asked as he looked at the medium-sized pirate spacecraft in the distance.
“They are not much different from us. They just loot and never kill. “
“I won't know, but it looks like you guys still have some principles,”
said Xiao Liong, somewhat astonished.
Little Eight grimaced. “Bos, being a pirate alone is heavy enough. Robbing is a risk, but killing is even riskier.
Because of the weaving cleanup forces, many pirates had iron rules for looting and never killing.
If we break it, the weaver army will put us on the list they must kill.
So, any killing on our side will attract the attention of a force we cannot fight.
The risk is too great for a small group like us to even think about taking it. ”
Xiao Liong nodded, as the words Little Eight were logical. Even though the universe is cruel.
Not too long later, Xiao Liong leisurely lay down as he looked at the two Dividers that had fallen in front of him.
He was now on the Flying Fish pirate spacecraft, and was looting it.
This small-scale pirate group did not have many powerhouses, some of the Restrictors they possessed were only as strong as the average Melder of the Astral Combat Academy, though,
about the level of Gerbach. They were too weak compared to Xiao Liong.
“Bos, this is our harvest,” Little Eight said as he obediently handed the black card of Bank Mavis to Xiao Liong as if he was giving away a treasure, he said, made him look angry from the captain of the Flying Fish.
“How much?” Xiao Liong's lips moved upwards.
“Hehe, 60,000 star crystals.”
“A little bit? Hasn't this group been running around and looting for several years? ”
“Bos, pirate group spending is quite high. In addition to the costs incurred in conjunction with the death of a crew member,
there is also a constant cost to maintaining weapons and spacecraft, medicine and their information,
paying the stronger pirate group, and even paying the cultivators in their own group.
60,000 is a decent result, taking all things into account. ”
Xiao Liong's gaze swept over the pirate captain and snorted as he looked at his pale face. He kept the card.
“Not bad. Go ahead and for others among your men. ”
Little Eight was very happy. “Thank you boss!”
Xiao Liong's way of doing things really surprised Little Eight, as Xiao Liong had yet to claim everything for himself.
This was a good way to gather goodwill among the crew and show that Xiao Liong was not a fool despite his young appearance.
The pirates were all cheering and they gave their all in completing the given task.
Xiao Liong did not care about the rest of his loot, but he cared about his money.
He did not become so desperate that he would act immoral for money,
but he is willing to use violence when necessary. He expected these pirates to have great wealth;
otherwise, he would not have been able to get a good harvest from robbing all these pirates.
He is willing to face additional risks. Although this group of pirates could no longer offer him any advantage,
they represent the risk of spreading the word about his activities and causing him to be chased by another pirate crew.
Over the next half month, Xiao Liong visited various regions with the leader of the Little Eight.
There were ninety-seven regions in the Dark Mist Weave, and according to Little Eight, this was where the weaving of most of the pirates in the Outerverse gathered.
In just half a month, they had robbed over ten groups of pirates.
Xiao Liong himself had obtained around 700,000 star crystals, which sounded like an enormous wealth.
Every pirate who followed him also gained enough wealth to live luxuriously for the rest of their lives.
They could even stop being pirates and live as wealthy commoners if they wanted to.
“Brother Eight, isn't the Pirate Knight's territory ahead? Let's rob them! ” exclaims a pirate in the command room.
Little Eight slapped his head hard. “You crazy?! You want to rob the Pirate Knight? A scram! “
Xiao Liong happened to pass by and heard the conversation. “Why can't we rob a Pirate Knight?”
Little Eight jumped in fright when he heard Xiao Liong's voice, and he quickly turned to explain.
“Bos, Pirate Knights are the strongest pirate group in this entire region. They had at least five Dividers in their ranks,
and their captain, the Mad Viper Knight, was an absolute powerhouse. He graduated from the Astral Combat Academy. ”
Xiao Liong was stunned. “He graduated from the Astral Combat Academy? He's an Explorer? ”
Little Eight shook his head. “No, there is no way an Explorer will linger in this poor region. He is the top barrier. “
Xiao Liong relaxed. As long as his opponent was not an Explorer, he would be fine. This must be a false rumor that this captain has graduated from the Astral Combat Academy,
because the rules state that a student can only graduate after they become an Explorer.
Anyone who cannot reach that stage will be expelled when they are adults, which is not considered a pass.
The Astral Combat Academy was divided into ten academies. Other than Astral-10, the other academies each had an average of a thousand students.
“Come go. We're going to loot this Knight Pirates. Because they were able to dominate some of the surrounding areas,
they should have given us a decent harvest. ” Xiao Liong is looking forward to the loot coming.
Little Eight's face turned bitter. “Bos, this pirate really cannot be provoked.
They were once besieged by soldiers, but they slaughtered nearly half of them.
Their blood even turned the oceans of the planets beneath them red! The Mad Viper Knight even managed to sneak in and kill an Explorer! This guy is scary! ”
Xiao Liong beamed as he replied, “That's our target! Let's go!”
Little Eight was helpless, and he could only stare intently at the pirate who had opened his mouth earlier.
The spacecraft changed direction and headed straight for the Knight Pirates' territory.
It is not an easy task to find a group of pirates, because they will not stay in the same place for long.
It required luck, but since both sides were pirates, Little Eight had a good chance of tracking down their prey.
At this point, Xiao Liong had long forgotten his Lockbreaking mission. Although Lockbreaking was important to him,
these star crystals are much more important. His death was a shortcut to rapidly increasing his strength.
He had collected 700,000 star crystals, so after this final mission, he was able to return to Astral-10 and patiently wait for the Astral Battle Tournament to begin.
The Knight Pirates roamed several territories, so Little Eight initially thought it would take a while to find them.
But contrary to his expectations, they saw a huge spaceship in the middle of a meteoroid field in just a day. It was the Knight Pirates spacecraft.
Under Xiao Liong's sharp gaze, Little Eight sent a docked request to the Knight Pirates.
Quickly, their spaceship is given permission to board by a larger spaceship.
Xiao Liong looked at his gadget when he heard the two spaceships were connected.
He could see the level of strength of the various people on this huge ship and saw there were nearly a thousand people here.
There were three Limiters, but more importantly, one had a power level of 10,000.
This impressive number caused Little Eight to almost faint in fear.
This was a peak Limiteer and was supposed to be a Mad Viper Knight. It seemed that he was only a step away from breaking through to become an Explorer.
Xiao Liong's face became a little grim, but he didn't pay much attention to this figure.
He had met many peak Limiteers and had even fought against some of them in teleportation battles.
While their superior star energy had suppressed it strongly, they were invincible like an Explorer.
Uro was once the top Barrier, as was the Spear Mountain Area Master, Frankfurt.
“B-bos, there is still time to retreat. I think it would be best if we did not provoke the Mad Viper Knight.
We can leave after giving him some respect, ”Little Eight nervously came out.
Xiao Liong rejected the suggestion and calmly walked out of their spaceship and towards the Pirate Knight ship.
He had already made enough preparations before arriving, and if this Mad Viper Knight was too powerful, he could still retreat.
However, this pirate captain was still within Xiao Liong's capabilities. If the fight turns out to be impossible, then,
then he could use his status as a Lockbreaker to save his life.
He first used his status as a pirate captain to request a meeting with the Mad Viper Knight.
This was not an excessive request, and Xiao Liong was quickly taken to a waiting room where he saw a Barrier standing outside.
However, just as the Barrier was about to speak, his gadget beeped, and his face changed.
His entire position shifted and he quickly left. The pirate who had been escorting Xiao Liong left in a hurry, though,
it left only Xiao Liong alone. Xiao Liong frowned, but paid no heed to the actions of the two.
He immediately opened the waiting room door and stepped in.
The Mad Viper Knight was a middle-aged man, with the same age as most pirate captains.
He wore an elegant aristocratic coat and held a cane in his hand.
On his face was a fearsome snake tattoo, and his fleeting appearance was somewhat intimidating.
Xiao Liong's entry did not bother the captain as he was looking at something on his gadget, but his eyes seemed to carry a trace of worry.
