Plundering Transport Fleet Three! Retreat in fear!!!

About 70 billion kilometers away from the star of Morda in the star field.

Four spaceships held azure tail flames and were sailing at an even speed.

They were traveling at a speed of 278,600 km/s, a standard sublight sailing mode.

Generally speaking.

Among interstellar voyages, for distances not exceeding one light year, spaceships used sublight speed voyages, which was the most cost-effective way to sail.

But if it is a long distance voyage.

For example, if the interstellar voyage is several hundred light years or several thousand light years, you have to consider using FTL voyage, warp voyage, or even such voyage as space jump.

And these four spaceships that were on a sublight voyage.

It was none other than the Black Lizard Interstellar Pirates' Plunder III transport fleet.

At the head of the fleet was a 10,000 meter class heavy transport ship, escorted by three other 2,000 meter class escort ships.

...

"Captain!"

Inside the pilot's command module of the heavy transport.

Gathered a group of lizardmen.

They also had lizard-like heads and tails, but stood on their legs like humans, and wore the protective suits of interstellar navigation.

Among them, the lizardman with the largest body size was the captain of this transport fleet.

He was listening to the reports of his men.

The lizardman subordinate respectfully said, "The mecha formation stationed at Morda Star has not contacted us for more than five galactic days, and the messages we passed over have not been answered."

The lizardman next to him said, "Could it be that there is a problem with the interstellar communication tower over there and they are repairing it."

"I don't think so."

The lizardman minion said, "Each colonial mining area needs to have at least three interstellar communication towers installed, and if one of them is broken, the others can be used. This is to guarantee that the formations in the colony mines are in contact with our transport fleet at all times."

"What you mean is ..."

"Most likely, there was an accident in the colonial mines on Morda! An outside force destroyed all the interstellar communication towers, and the mech formation soldiers there all died."

"Damn it!"

A lizardman said angrily, "It must be the Morda's doing! These Morda fools, even though they were killed by us until they were down to tens of millions, they were never willing to be obediently enslaved by us."

"Compared to the Mordae, the cockroaches of Capone Star are more obedient!"

"Captain~"

Several lizardmen looked to the captain.

All actions of the fleet had to follow the captain's orders.

The lizardman captain was burly, his hands clasped around his belly, his morse-green eyes looking out through the windows of his command cabin at the dim starry sky.

Finally, with a cold face, he said, "Target Morda Star, full speed ahead!"

"Aye, Captain!"

The next time period, the four spaceships adjusted their course slightly.

Straightening up, they flew at great speed towards the planet Morda.

The lizardman minion said, "At our current speed, the fleet will take about six galactic days to reach the star field of Morda."

"No matter what caused the communication tower to be lost, we'll kill those Mordae this time."

"Mordaeans, very disobedient!"

"After clearing out the Mordae, then migrate the cockroaches of Capone Star over and continue mining the veins."

"Gah gah ... should have done that a long time ago!"

The other lizardmen were laughing cruelly hariously.

They were the infamous Black Lizard interstellar pirates, and no interstellar civilization's merchant group was willing to cooperate with them, otherwise they would have sold the Mordae as slaves long ago.

Even in the interstellar era, slaves were worth a lot of money.

Since there was no way to sell them, they could only be killed.

They weren't heartbroken.

...

Time passes.

It turned to six galactic days later.

The Plunder III transport fleet of the Black Lizard Interstellar Pirates also gradually arrived near the star field of Morda Star.

From the shipboard lightwave detectors of the four starships, the star Morda could already be clearly seen.

"Captain, the distance is close enough, but still no signal from the interstellar communication tower has been detected, indicating that the communication tower has indeed been destroyed by the Morda."

"Damned Morda slaves!"

"Captain, please give the order to attack!"

Inside the pilot command cabin, many lizardmen were roaring.

In their opinion, the valiant Black Lizard Mech Warriors were killed by a group of slaves and destroyed the interstellar communication tower they had built, which was provoking the bottom line and dignity of their Black Lizard Interstellar Pirate Corps.

A shame that must be washed away with blood!

Kill all the Mordae on the planet and avenge the fallen Black Lizard MechWarriors!

"Spare not a single Morda!"

The Lizardman captain was also furious at this point.

However, just as he was about to give the order to attack.

A Lizardman subordinate in charge of the light wave detection device suddenly got up and reported, "Captain, something is wrong! The detection device scanned that there were an extremely large number of military satellites in the space orbit of the planet Morda, and the monitoring signal wrapped around the entire planet Morda."

"In addition, multiple satellites have also appeared in the outer space sector of Planet Morda ..."

"Captain, we have been spotted!!!"

"Hmm?"

The lizardman captain frowned.

He was a little confused.

Back then, after the Pirates had captured the planet Morda, they had destroyed all the technological power of the Morda civilization with Starfleet cannon fire, and killed all the technologists, scholars, engineers, and so on, in every field.

With the remaining civilizational power and industrial heritage of the Morda, it made no sense that they would be able to create a military satellite.

So ...

Where did the moons in the outer space of the planet Morda come from?

Without waiting for him to ask.

The lizardman subordinate exclaimed again, "Captain, there are hundreds of thousands of energy signals spread across the surface of Planet Morda ... My God! More energy signals have appeared, and they're moving, so fast they're already flying out of the atmosphere!!!

Damn, that's a Morda airborne fighter!!!

They're aiming at us!!!"

"What?!"

The Lizardman captain and the other Lizardman officers were shocked.

They quickly stepped in front of the lightwave detector and asked sharply, "How many airborne fighters are there in total?"

The lizardmen men had panicked expressions.

"Many, hundreds of thousands, maybe even millions ..."

"This can't be!!!"

A lizardman officer exclaimed in shock and anger, "Even at the peak of the Morda civilization, they didn't have so many airborne fighters, let alone now? They simply don't have enough production lines, materials and time to build so many ..."

He didn't finish his words, after all.

Because on the screen of the lightwave detector, it was covered with dense red dots.

Each of the red dots represented an airborne warplane.

And in the bottom right corner of the screen was the number of airborne fighters detected.

Starting from hundreds of thousands, the value kept climbing upwards.

This indicated that there were more and more airborne fighters appearing within the range of their lightwave detection.

"It's a trap!"

"Order the fleet to pull back three billion kilometers!"

The Lizardman captain didn't have time to think much about it.

He did not hesitate to give the order to retreat.

Dozens or millions of air and sky fighters swarmed on them, enough to destroy their transport fleet.

After all, they were only a transport fleet, not a fully-formed Starfleet, and could not withstand the siege of so many airborne warplanes.

"Come, it's too late ..."

The lizardman minion's voice trembled.

At the sound of his words, there were countless dense and dazzling beams of light that flew towards the transport fleet.

Those were the small high-energy particle cannons loaded by the air fighters!!!
