Section 267
They were left with permanent diseases due to radiation, and the Empire and the Star Alliance left them behind when they retreated from the border, leaving them with pain that could never be cured.
From then on, whether they were once citizens of the Empire or citizens of the Star Alliance, they abandoned their past identities and became victims. They knew that if they wanted to restore their good lives and no longer experience helpless suffering, the only thing they could do was to unite.
These local aborigines united together to form the largest force in the deserted star region. They were like a pack of wild wolves wandering in the wilderness, extremely sensitive to the hunter's hunting rifle. Anyone who provoked one of them should be prepared to be pounced on and killed by the pack of wolves.
Even if they couldn't fight head-on, they had too many ways to make it impossible for you to stay in this star region. Because this is where their ancestors have lived for generations.
There was once a famous star pirate group that provoked the local natives, but did not take them seriously at all. When the natives came to their door, they mercilessly killed a large number of them, thinking that this would serve as a deterrent.
Unexpectedly, since then, their members have to guard against sneak attacks and assassinations at any time and place when walking on any street. Every piece of food delivered to their mouths may have various toxins. They even have difficulty finding clean water sources and can only stay on the flying ship all day. Not long after, even their flying ship was destroyed... They were very annoyed.
When this star pirate group finally left the planet, the natives were certainly retaliated by them fiercely, but their own losses were also not small.
Not only did they lose a lot of personnel, but most people were exhausted and distracted, and they "happened" to meet their mortal enemies not long after leaving.
Of course, no one would believe this kind of coincidence. It is more likely that the natives sent a message to their mortal enemy.
The two pirate groups were originally evenly matched. One group was well prepared and rested, while the other group was caught off guard and exhausted. The result of the battle can be imagined.
After a big battle, the famous pirate group was completely wiped out and disappeared from this vast sea of stars.
The natives of the desolate star region also became famous in one battle, and many people secretly called them "hyenas".
With such precedents, other forces that later settled in, such as arms dealers who risked smuggling arms across the border, large-scale star pirate groups that attempted to take advantage of the war zone, wanted criminals who were wanted and hid in this chaotic area, ubiquitous gangs, anti-government terrorist organizations, and battlefield deserters who were tired of the war and quietly escaped... Most of them would not rashly anger the local indigenous people, either trying to build good relations with them as much as possible and trade with each other, or maintain a tacit understanding of being irrelevant to each other.
In this way, the indigenous people who held together, various gangs, arms dealers, anti-government organizations, star pirate groups, battlefield deserters, wanted criminals with staggering bounties... constituted an extremely complex desolate star region.
They maintained a very delicate balance with each other, and any external intervention or some changes would likely break this balance.
A-R11, as an inconspicuous planet in the deserted star region, is a paradise where many gangs and wanted criminals are active. There are also a large number of bounty hunters who make a living by hunting wanted criminals in exchange for bounties. It is said that there are fights every moment.
- Of course, this is just an exaggeration.
But the actual situation is not far off.
"Boom!"
The flames that shot up into the sky illuminated half of the sky. Amid the violent roar, the mighty white light of the energy cannons attacked and vented unscrupulously.
The two major gangs in the East District ended a small-scale battle. In the end, one side successfully robbed all the weapons, including a small number of mechas, and from then on, it was replaced by a cannon; while the other side not only had its supplies robbed, but also lost a long-running trading base, and finally had to evacuate in a miserable way.
Back at his well-defended base, Quinn could no longer hold back his rage and scolded a group of useless subordinates severely. Seeing them walk out with their heads down, he clenched his fists and threw them down heavily.
"... Shit!"
After becoming the boss, Quinn has always been very concerned about his dignity, trying to package himself as an upper-class person, wishing that everyone could forget his disgraceful past.
But what happened today really stimulated him. His chest rose and fell sharply, and a series of swear words came out of his mouth, spitting all over.
"Archie, that son of a bitch! He actually broke the rules and hooked up with those crazy white rebels! Don't think I don't know that only the white rebels have this level of energy cannon! Fuck him!"
The Archie he was talking about was the leader of another organization in the East District, the "Mutual Aid Society". His real name was unknown, but he always called himself Archie.
The White Rebels are the most powerful of the many anti-government organizations, and even have a small mecha force. Their official name is "White Dawn."
Most of its members are veterans who oppose the war in the Empire and the Star Alliance. They have lost their loved ones in the war and are tired of fighting. However, their demands cannot be recognized by the upper echelons of the two countries. Instead, they are forced to join the army... So, they are determined to stop the war with war, and use special methods to force the Empire and the Star Alliance to realize their claims. Therefore, they are called "White Rebels".
Speaking of so many forces in the Wild Star Region, the top of the list of hatred in the hearts of the Empire and the Star Alliance is naturally those anti-government organizations, and among the anarchic organizations, the hatred value of "White Dawn" is also far ahead, and it is simply the primary target of the Empire and the Star Alliance.
Therefore, except for the wanted criminals wanted by the two countries and the daring star pirates, even if the gangs and arms dealers are also shady, they will never choose to get together with the anti-government organization "White Dawn". This is almost an unspoken rule.
And now, the "Mutual Aid Society" has broken the rules first.
How could this not make Quinn, the leader of another organization in the East District, the "Silver Wolf Gang", furious, shocked and angry? !
He paced back and forth on the spot, his neatly combed hair was scattered, and his face was full of anxiety and anger.
- Damn it, it must be that I have connected with the big arms dealer, and the news that I will secretly obtain ten C-class mechas has leaked out, otherwise how could the "White Rebels" break the rules and intervene in such a low-level fight? ? ?
- Ten C-class mechas are not spared, the despicable White Rebels are really greedier than hyenas!
This matter cannot be thought about in detail, the more you think about it, the more it explodes. In addition to anxiety and anger, another strong emotion gradually filled his chest, almost suffocating him.
- He knew very well that it was deep fear.
The Empire and the Star Alliance are absolutely consistent in their attitudes on the White Rebels and other anti-government organizations. When tracking the White Rebels, they are more sensitive than dogs, and when attacking the White Rebels, they will never care about implicating innocent people - if they are innocent.
Once the White Rebels are found to have a connection with the planet A-R11, his stupid and crazy colleagues will go to hell, and they may drag him into hell with them!
Deep fear almost overwhelmed Quinn.
He was afraid of the Empire's possible pursuit, and he was also afraid that his stupid colleague who was supported by the White Rebels would get rid of him before the pursuit came - there is no doubt that the two leaders are very different from each other in terms of philosophy and culture just from the name of the gang. It is obvious that they are not the type that can coexist peacefully - but now he can't think of any way to deal with it.
It seems that no matter what, there is only a desperate situation in front of him. It's just a matter of time, who will die, and how to die.
The only choice he had was to lie down or resist.
Just as the fear was about to overwhelm him, a burst of excited footsteps reached his ears. Just as Quinn was about to yell, his most trusted confidant hurried over and brought him an unexpected news-
"Boss, a flying ship fell!"
Quinn looked at him unexpectedly, very dissatisfied with his whining: "It's just a flying ship, we have it. Don't be so "unworldly".
The subordinate took a deep breath, and the excited voice continued: "... Just a few minutes ago. It was the latest military 774 medium-sized flying ship, which landed on our territory! It seems to have run out of energy! Based on experience, everyone judged that it probably came from an improper way!"
A latest military flying ship? ? ? ΘThis work is provided by ΘSiTuΘ.comΘOnline readingΘ
Quinn swallowed his words in a second, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw: "Where is it? Take me there!"
Military spaceships are strategic materials, and ordinary small forces are not qualified to get involved.
The few spaceships they have are all bought from the star pirates, and they are the spoils looted by the star pirates. Of course, they are all commercial and civilian.
Real military spaceships can only come from the military.
-In addition to the war, the Star Alliance and the Empire will also have small-scale battles on a daily basis. Therefore, from time to time, some crashed spaceships will fall into the desolate star field.
Generally, for a severely crashed spaceship, most of the people on the spaceship are dead, and they can secretly pick up the leaks, even if they act as scrap recycling. But if the damage is not serious, there will probably be soldiers alive, so they will naturally control the spaceship to return to the team.
This is the time to test the courage of others.
Relying on the remoteness of the place, the serious damage of the flying ship and the fact that it is alone, there will always be some daring forces trying to intercept it. If they succeed, they will make a lot of money, and if they fail, they will face the ruthless revenge of the Empire or the Star Alliance.
But the so-called "illegal" ones are different.
Most of these military flying ships are battlefield deserters, or they are ruthless people who are robbing each other. Of course, there is a rarer possibility, that is, the wanted criminals who are far ahead on the bounty list and dare to openly rob flying ships.
In normal times, small gangs like the "Silver Wolf Gang" would never dare to intercept military flying ships, for fear of causing trouble.
Except for battlefield deserters, Quinn can't afford to offend any of them. He didn't dare to gamble on this possibility.
But now, he is facing a desperate situation, so he might as well go all out. What if there is something good on this warship that can fight against the "Mutual Aid Society", or if he encounters a wanted criminal with a bounty on his head, and if he catches the person and sells it to the empire, he can turn danger into safety in the future? !
Even though he knew that this might be a fantasy, Quinn couldn't help but ignite a glimmer of hope in his heart, and his pace was much faster.
Although the "Silver Wolf Gang" is insignificant compared to anti-government organizations such as the White Rebels, it is also a force of considerable size in the local A-R11 star, especially in the East District, where it can almost be called the "overlord of one district."
With the order of Quinn, the leader of the "Silver Wolf Gang", hundreds of people took action. They skillfully completed the clearing of the scene, blocked all news, and drove away the civilians wandering around. One by one, they all rushed to the open space where the warship was located with complete equipment.
A large silver-gray fish, like a steel cast, lay quietly on the ground. Its smooth body looked cold, and an emergency signal flashed on its flank, a sign of requesting support when the energy was exhausted.
A large group of red and green "miscellaneous troops" surrounded this place. On the fully armed vehicles, small gun barrels protruded from them, with red and white energy beams brewing on the top. They aimed at the "big fish" in unison at an extremely skilled and orderly speed.
- Just like a group of well-trained hunters, they were hunting down the "big fish".
