chapter 971
A spaceship was moving fast through the void near the center of the Milky Way.
Behind it were more than a dozen black – horned ships, and they were constantly attacking the spaceship. Although the black –horned ships temporarily could not break the spaceship‘s defense, it would not take long for the latter‘s defense to fail if this continued.
After all, black–horned ships were attack–type ships one tier below the Octagon.
Meanwhile , the spaceship was only a commercial – type ship. It focused on defense and did not have a strong attack.
It had no means of fighting back while faced with the siege of so many black–horned ships.
Its defense would be gradually breached if the black horned ships kept attacking it.
At this time, inside the spaceship, an exceptionally beautiful young woman was frowning as she looked at the dozen or so black–horned ships that were catching up to them not far away. Mia Concord was the dancing fairy among the four fairies in the Milky Way.
This time, she was initially invited by Burke, the head of Planet Boundless, to be a guest on Planet Boundless.
Burke from Planet Boundless recently broke through from Star Realm to Universe Realm. Since he had reached Cosmos Rank, he invited many friends to be guests on Planet Boundless.
Mia was also one of those invited.
She originally did not want to go because she lived far away from Planet Boundless.
Due to this, she would need to pass through the edge of the Milky Way‘s core. However, Burke made an offer she could not refuse , so Mia decided to go.
However, she did not expect to meet space pirates halfway through her journey, resulting in her being hunted down till now. Space pirates were a group of bandits active outside the Milky Way‘s core.
They would rob any commercial spaceships passing by. Mia could not understand. She only passed the edge of the core of the Milky Way and did not come out of the core.
The outside of the Milky Way‘s core is huge, and there are very few space pirates here. ‘However, why did I encounter these hateful space pirates?
‘Did someone reveal my whereabouts? ‘Did someone plot against me?‘ Mia was lost in thought.
“Miss Mia, what should we do? If we continue like this, our defense will be broken in a day at most, and we will lose our protection. At that time, we will have no way of escaping,” a middle–aged woman said anxiously beside Mia.
“Ms. Kane, what did the other party say?” Mia asked.
Her voice was gentle and melodious. While it sounded as clear as a bell, there was a hint of softness to it.
Anyone would feel pleasant hearing her voice.
“They said…” Ms. Kane hesitated.
“You can just tell me. I‘ve heard all kinds of horrible things throughout these years.” “They said you should surrender obediently and be their leader‘s wife. Then, they will let you go after you serve the men for a hundred years.”
“Really? Tell them I accept, but they must let you leave first.”
“Miss Mia, no way! I will never leave without you. We will die together! Plus, you can‘t trust these space pirates at all. You mustn‘t promise them this!” Ms. Kane immediately refused.
“Ms. Kane, if they agree , you should leave first, as it‘ll easier for me to escape by myself. Otherwise , we might not be able to leave if we all stay together in such a huge group,” Mia said calmly.
She did not seem to be affected by such a big dilemma at all.
“Miss Mia, no one will have a good ending when dealing these space pirates. You can‘t go.” “Ms. Kane, don‘t forget that I am also a beginner Stellar Ranker. If I am alone, I might get a chance to escape if I fight with all my life. Thus, you have to leave first.” “But…”
Ms. Kane wanted to say something, but the communication device suddenly rang.
She turned it on and asked, “What‘s wrong?”
“Ms. Kane, there‘s an Octagon ahead of us.”
Mia‘s eyes suddenly lit up. The Octagon was a military weapon that was possessed only by major forces.
She might be saved now that she ran into it.
She also knew what awaited her once these space pirates caught her.
chapter 972
If possible, she certainly did not want to deal with these nasty guys either.
“What? An Octagon? I‘ll be right over here.”
After Frida finished speaking, she said to Mia, “Miss Mia, there is an Octagon in front of us. Let‘s go and see if we can ask them for help.”
“Sure!”
The two went to the control room of the spaceship together.
When they were in the control room, they saw a huge Octagon slowly approaching them.
Anyone able to possess military weapons like the Octagon would definitely be a prominent force in the Milky Way Empire.
“Send a request to contact the other party,” Mia said.
“Yes, Miss Mia!”
The spaceship sent a request to connect.
After a while…
“They accepted! They accepted!” There was a burst of excitement in the spaceship control room.
Their worst fear was that the Octagon would refuse their request.
If that happened, they would not even have a chance to ask for help.
Now that the Octagon had accepted, they would at least have some hope that the Octagon would agree to help them.
Even the tiniest bit of hope was beyond exciting when someone was at their most desperate.
They would have been captured sooner or later if they had not encountered the Octagon.
“What‘s the matter?” A man‘s voice sounded in the spaceship control room.
The source of this voice was David.
As soon as he accepted the request, he asked this question.
“Hello, I am Mia Concord, and we‘ve run into space pirates while on our way to
Planet Boundless. Please help us. I will never forget your grace if you
do,” Mia said. When the people inside the Octagon‘s control room heard Mia‘s name, they gasped in excitement. “Mia Concord ? Dance Fairy Mia from the four fairies of the Milky Way?”
“We ran into the Dance Fairy? I want her autograph.”
“Me too! Me too!”
“I heard her autograph is at a sky–high price now.”
However, David did not know Mia Concord or the Dance Fairy.
“Miss Concord , right? I‘m sorry, I don‘t know you, so I am not obligated to help you,” David rejected. Inside the control room of the spaceship.David‘s words were like a bucket of cold water, putting out everyone‘s excitement.
Mia also frowned.
‘Who among the Milky Way‘s core doesn‘t know me? ‘Who doesn‘t know the four fairies?
‘It‘s fine if he doesn‘t want to help, but why did he say he doesn‘t know me? ‘It‘s either this person is an aborigine , or he just doesn‘t want to help me. ‘But how would an aborigine have an Octagon?‘ Therefore, Mia felt that this person simply did not want to help her.
She had nothing to say anymore since this person was so heartless.
After all, he did not have an obligation to help her.
However, Mia still wanted to try again since this was not only
related to her life. This would also affect the life and death of the dozens of people on the spaceship.
Furthermore , these people had been with her for a long time.
chapter 973
Only Dancing Fairy Mia lacked a strong background among the four fairies in the Milky Way.
She was born into a small family.
However, she got a position among the four fairies by relying on her ability, moving one step at a time.
She was also loved and worshiped by countless people in the galaxy.
Although she was only ranked the last among the four fairies, it was still something ordinary people could never achieve.
One must know that the other three fairies were from prominent forces and had very powerful backgrounds.
In particular, Astrid Barlowe, the head of the four fairies, was the princess of the Milky Way Empire.
Countless people from great forces had to address her as Her Royal Highness.
She had a high status, and people looked up to her.
Although the status of the other two was not comparable to Astrid, they definitely had a status than much higher Mia‘s.
At the very least, they would never take a commercial spaceship when traveling.
They were even less likely to be stopped by space pirates.
It was precisely because Mia did not have a powerful background that she would always have many people eying her.
She was powerless to refuse the invitations from prominent forces.
Otherwise, the family behind her would likely be implicated.
The reason why she went to Planet Boundless this time was that she was invited and al so threatened by Burke.
A head of a planet whose combat power had broken through to beginner Cosmos Rank would also be an important figure in the Milky Way.
Moreover, the forces behind Burke were even more terrifying, and he could easily get rid of the Concord family by offering any random excuse.
However, although many big people were eying Mia, there had never been any news of someone successfully dominating her.
This was also the reason why she was liked by countless young people. The space pirates‘ black–horned ships were still constantly attacking Mia’s spaceship.
They seemed to know Mia‘s whereabouts this time.
Thus, they blocked her path to drive her out of the Milky Way‘s core.
It was their world out there since space pirates could not enter the core easily.
Once the Milky Way Empire‘s officials found out about them, they would be immediately destroyed.If this were any of the other three fairies, the space pirates would not dare to do such a thing. Although they were a group of desperadoes , they were not fools. Once they provoked the prominent forces, t hey would be in deep trouble.
Inside the spaceship‘s control room.
“What
do you need for you to save us? As long as it‘s within my power, I will definitely not refuse,” Mia asked.
She felt that it was very likely that the other party wanted to talk to her about conditions.
After all, too many men were eying her in this galaxy.
The direct descendants of many major powers, and even the heads of families, had expressed themselves to her secretly and openly. However, Mia would muddle through them using various excuses.
Those people were all reputable and dignified.
Mmoreover , Mia was also famous. Therefore, they would also not use force against Mia.
People of great power would need to maintain their dignity.
However, Mia obviously could not refuse in this situation. If she were given a choice, of course, she would not want to fall into the hands of the space pirates.
This would ruin her life.
Therefore , she would rather agree to David‘s request as she would at least still be able to rely on a powerful force that possesed this Octagon.
chapter 974
It was just that she did not expect David not to have any interest in her at all, and he simply did not want to help her.
The operators in the Octagon‘s control room went crazy.
Mia actually said that.
If they saved Mia, Master David might even make her his maid.
How impressive would this be if word got out?
Mia was one of the four fairies in the Milky Way!
Countless big shots wanted her in their arms, but none of them could do so.
Meanwhile, they had this opportunity right now.
It would be easy for the Octagon to rescue Mia from the pursuit of more than a dozen black–horned ships.
After all, the Octagon was one level higher than the black horned ship.
The black–horned ship‘s attacks would not hurt the Octagon at all.
On the contrary, the Octagon’s attack could destroy a black–horned ship in one hit.
It was a pity that Master David had no idea how famous the Dance Fairy was nor had any idea how many people were obsessed with her.
“Who‘s chasing you?” David asked.
David was a newcomer and did not know anything about outer space, so he did not want to get involved in the war between the two forces.
The Tuffin family was enough to give him a headache.
If he provoked another prominent force, wouldn‘t he be making trouble for himself? “Sir, these people are all space pirates outside the Milky Way‘s core. I was invited by Burke, the head of Planet Boundless, to go to Planet Boundless to celebrate his breakthrough to Universe Realm. However, I didn‘t expect to meet these space pirates halfway through my journey. Our defense won‘t be able to handle any more attacks. Please help us, Sir. I will be eternally grateful ,” Mia replied respectfully.
‘Space pirates?
‘Celebrating the breakthrough of the head of Planet Boundless Burke to Universe Realm?
‘Does that even require a celebration?
‘It seems that the people of the Stella Civilization Galaxy are no different from ordinary people on earth.
“They all like having fun.’ David thought silently.
He did not know who Burke was, but he knew a little about space pirates from the Internet.
These people were tantamount to criminals who were constantly challenging the law.
They specialized in arson, murder, and looting.
If caught by them, the victims would definitely lose their money and life.
‘So, should I save them or not?‘
According to David‘s character, his heart leaned more toward saving them.
However, he was currently shouldering a huge responsibility, so it would be unwise to waste his time here.
When David was about to refuse, he heard another voice.
“Miss Mia Concord, just be a good girl and surrender. We‘ll let you go as long as you serve my men and me for a hundred years. If not, no one will save you today. Also, I forgot to tell you that there are 1384 of us here. Haha!”
Then, another voice said, “I don‘t care who you are. I should advise you to stop being nosey. There are some things that you can‘t afford to interfere with. Beware of causing trouble for the forces backing you.”
The latter message was clearly directed at David.
“How did they contact us?” David asked the commander of the Octagon.
“Master David, we didn‘t accept the message. They forcefully hacked into us,” the commander replied.
“You can‘t imagine the extent of our strength. Just leave obediently. If not, the Octagon can‘t even protect you.”
“Kick them out,” David said to the commander.
“Yes, Master David!”
Soon, the commander said, “Master David, I can‘t. They should be using some special
tactics.”
“Stop wasting your efforts. Since we can hack into your system, how can you kick us out?” If you‘re smart, kid, you should leave now. If not, we‘ll also take action against you. Don‘t think we can‘t do anything to you because you have the Octagon‘s protection.”
“Since when did irrelevant buffoons like the space pirates dare to be so arrogant in front of me? Open the hatch of the ship and let Mia in. After that, prepare the laser cannons and show them that there are certain things they shouldn‘t say,” David said casually. If the space pirates did not say things like that, he might not have saved Mia.
After all, he had a lot of things to do, and he did not want to waste his time here.
However, since they said this, wouldn‘t he look weak if he did not respond to them?
After all, he was a peak Cosmos Ranker.
chapter 975
“Thank you for your help!” Mia said happily.
“B*stard, you are asking for death!” The space pirate roared,
They had just lost the prize that had been in the palm of thir hand, so how would they not feel mad?
When they thought about how they would need to face the wrath of their boss if they failed the mission, the space pirates, who were used to living on the edge, shuddered uncontrollably.
They did not meet Mia by chance. Instead, they were ordered by someone powerful to come to capture Mia.
They were bluffing when they said they wanted Mia to serve them for a hundred years.
How would they get a turn on Mia, one of the four fairies?
If they did that, they would have no way to survive , no matter where they were in the Milky Way, even if Mia did not have a powerful force supporting her.
It was because there were too many powerful people who admired Mia.
Others aside, they already could not even afford to offend the person who gave them the order.
One word from him could easily decide their fate.
Death might be their best outcome unless they escaped to the very edge of the Milky Way and never returned.
They would likely be imprisoned forever and suffer a fate worse than death.
The Octagon‘s hatch opened, and Mia’s spaceship quickly went inside.
They would be safe as long as they entered the Octagon.
However, the space pirates did not want to give them this chance.
The dozens of black–horned ships stopped attacking and changed formations.
Now, they were arranged in a half–circle.
At the same time, all of the black–horned ships gathered their energies and focused them at the center of the half circle.
This strike would clearly be more powerful than each of them attacking individually.
O
“Miss Mia, we detected a large energy gathering behind us. We won‘t be able to resist it if we‘re hit. What should we do?”
“Increase the speed. As long as we‘re inside the Octagon, we‘ll be safe,” Mia said with a frown.
She was also very nervous.
At this time, the Octagon‘s eight comers also began gathering energy
Mia‘s spaceship was about to enter the Octagon‘s cabin just as the two sides were about to make contact.
Then, the energy gathered by more than a dozen black horned ships behind them finally launched.
Bang!
“Miss Mia!” Ms. Kane exclaimed.
The hearts of the people in the spaceship all leaped to their throats.
They were within reach of the Octagon‘s open cabin, but if they were attacked from behind, their entire spaceship would disintegrate instantly, and there would be no chance to escape.
Except for Mia, a beginner Stellar Ranker, none of the others could survive this powerful attack.
Mia would also be severely injured.
The energy gathered by more than a dozen black–horned ships was no joke.
This blow would be at Stellar Rank, so it would also be a little hard for the Octagon to resist if it was hit.
Woosh!
The energy cannons gathered by the black – horned ships passed by the spaceship and blasted directly at the Octagon, where David was.
These space pirates never meant to attack Mia‘s spaceship in the first place.
Otherwise, they would not have bothered trying to capture her. Why waste so much time dilly–dallying?
The order they received was to capture Mia alive and well.
She could not be seriously injured. Otherwise, they would not be able to explain themselves.
As they faced this blow that would pierce the Octagon‘s defenses, David and the others did not cower. On the contrary, they emitted the energy gathered by the eight corners.
Boom!
The energy both sides gathered collided with each other.
The huge shockwave blew away Mia‘s spaceship. However, because the ship was not hit directly, the shockwave only broke through its defenses and did not hurt Mia and the others inside.
“Go! The spaceship is about to explode. Get out of here right now!” After Mia finished speaking, she left the spaceship and escaped first.
The others followed Mia out of the spaceship too.
Whether a commercial spaceship or a military flying vessel, there would be an explosion as soon as the defense was breached.
Mia fled to the void with her team of a dozen people.
Boom!
The spaceship turned to ashes with a loud bang after they had just escaped. Without the protection of their spaceship , Mia and the others were exposed to everyone‘s gaze. There was not a single man in the team of dozens of people, they were all gorgeous women. Whether they were old or young, they were all at least nines.
At the same time , Mia stood out among these beauties and shone like a pearl.
It was also the first time David saw a woman with such a top–notch temperament, appearance, and figure. Among the people he knew, perhaps only Selena would be able to compete with Mia in the future because right now, not even Selena could compare to her.
As for the group of space pirates in the distance, they started salivating when they saw Mia.
Unfortunately for them, Mia was not someone they could vie for.
However, even if they could not get their hands on Mia, it would be nice to have those beauties around her.
Those people were also stunning.
Of course, the first thing they needed to get rid of now was the Octagon in front of them.
If they could get rid of David and the others, the beauties in front of them would be theirs.
More than a dozen black–horned ships were parked not far away.
They continued gathering energy as they could not give the Octagon a chance to disperse them.
The black–horned ships were already a notch below the Octagon.
If they were spread out, separate attacks from the black hored ships would never be able to break the Octagon‘s defenses.
Only by gathering their energy would they be able to breach the Octagon‘s defense.
The Octagon‘s control room.
The commander was preparing to continue gathering enery to resist the attack when he heard David‘s voice.
“Open the hatch. I‘ll go out to deal with them. We should leave quickly after I‘m done. I still have a lot of things to do next, and I don‘t want to waste my time with them.”
“Yes, Master David,” the commander replied respectfully.
More than a dozen black–horned ships continued to gather energy, but the Octagon was unresponsive.
Mia and others standing in the void were puzzled.
The energy gathered by more than a dozen black–horned ships was clearly capable of breaking the Octagon‘s defenses.
If they did not want to be attacked, then the only way was to confront each other head– on like just now and see who would run out of energy first.
‘Could it be that the Octagon had already run out of energy?‘ Mia wondered.
This was quite possible.
After all, the Octagon just came back from the outskirts, which must have been a long journey.
Therefore, it was not impossible for them to have run out of energy.
If so, they would be doomed.
