Jun Yongye shrugged helplessly. "Don't you get tired of nagging me every day?
I told you she'd be fine.
Her bond with Demortus is perfect. She's been baptized by the sword's energy.
Plus, she's strong at healing. The reason she's been asleep for so long must have something to do with her injuries.
You don't need to worry too much about it. Focus on your cultivation.
Who knows, when she comes out she'll be stronger than you. "
The Shattered Starfields were like three gigantic airship bases. Every day, ships flew in and out of them.
Even the Red Tarantulas had their own trading partners, much less the likes of the Shattered Starfields.
Ever since the Pontiff's Citadel had taken control of the three planets, they'd become more and more unscrupulous.
Large amounts of resources flowed in, making the Citadel their own backyard.
Thanks to the influx of resources, the Citadel's growth accelerated.
According to the Pontiff's plans, the next step was to upgrade their ships.
The Shattered Starfields' biggest limitation was the terrain. Large ships couldn't pass through, making it a pirate's paradise.
However, even ships of the same size could be very different in terms of strength.
With enough power gems at their core, a battleship would be much more powerful.
The Pontiff's Citadel had a large following in the Western Alliance, and many businesses.
All three of the Major League's forces were mobilized, ready to face the alien home worlds at a moment's notice.
No one cared about the pirates in the Shattered Starfields.
The Pontiff's Citadel seized this opportunity to expand the Shattered Starfields.
All three Major League forces had their own influence in the Shattered Starfields, but they interfered with each other. Pirates were hard to control, so none of them had been able to truly control the Shattered Starfields.
When Su Xiaosu was sent here, she didn't use the Pontiff's Citadel's name.
With the Pontiff's Citadel's secret support and her innate talent, the Moonfiend Pirates were able to grow.
Now that the Pontiff's Citadel had a chance to reap the fruits of their labor, it was only natural that they wanted to expand their influence.
Just the power gems and resources produced by the Shattered Starfields were enough to make them rich.
It was enough to fill their coffers.
A pirate patrol ship slowly made its way toward the home planet of the Shattered Triad.
It was responsible for transporting a shipment of rare alloys.
Behind it were two patrol ships escorting them.
"Activate the planetary shield.
Permission granted! "The electronic voice rang out, and the white light barrier at the periphery of the atmosphere quietly dispersed.
The three pirate ships entered the area.
On the pirate battleship, the pirate in charge of piloting could not help but twitch his mouth. "What's going on recently? Even the planet's shield has been activated.
They must be afraid of that mysterious pirate crew. "
Another pirate said, "There's no way to be afraid.
In a short span of two months, there were already more than twenty pirate groups that disappeared without a trace. It was unknown whether they were dead or alive.
Although there was no evidence to prove that it was done by the pirates.
But according to witnesses.
That pirate group had at least a regiment of mecha.
And the invisible battleship. "
"Hehe.
The other party's choice was not wrong. What could make money faster than cheating others?
After a few rounds of business, he would go home to retire.
He could find an administrative planet with fewer restrictions and do whatever he wanted.
However, we are being too careful here.
Could it be that they dared to think of destroying the Chaotic Three Stars with just one or two warships?
That's like eating arsenic and having a death wish. "
"It's always better to be careful.
It was already good enough that he didn't activate the electromagnetic shield.
If he had one, he'd be scanned every time he came back.
Every time he came back, he would be scanned, and even the color he was wearing would appear on the screen.
That would be disgusting.
Come on, don't complain.
We're almost there.
Prepare to land. "
The three pirate ships touched down at Moonfiend's warship hangar, completing the last step of their mission.
However, what they did not know was that when the planet's shield was activated, another invisible battleship followed closely behind them and quietly entered the planet's airspace.
Su Xiaosu personally watched over Zeus -1. She was the only one who knew Moonfiend better than anyone else.
Mika steered Zeus -1 to one of the largest mountain ranges on the planet.
"Moonfiend produces C-ranked power gems called moonfiend stones.
Moonfiend stone powder is the best catalyst for an alloy. Once added, the alloy becomes hard enough to withstand temperatures over three thousand degrees Celsius. It also has the ability to deflect attacks.
It's as strong as a battleship's shield.
This mine is where the moonfiend stones are produced. That's how the Moonfiend Pirates got their name.
My flagship's hull was made from an alloy mixed with moonfiend stones. "
The Moonfiend Empress couldn't help but feel a sense of melancholy.
"Because the Moon Magic Stone has radiation, all electronic signals here will be disrupted. Therefore, even satellite surveillance will only be a blur when it reaches this area.
That's the best place for our people to land. "
"It's all about the money." Lan Jue patted her shoulder.
Su Xiaosu smiled sweetly. "I'm fine. I've thought it through.
I was a tool before, but now I live for myself.
Don't worry, boss. "
When no one else was around, she was used to calling Lan Jue boss.
The moonfiend stone mines were vast. Zeus -1 slowly descended into a valley, hovering about a hundred meters above the ground.
The tractor beam shone down into the valley. One by one, Star Division's soldiers dropped in and scurried for cover.
In order to save as much time as possible, Zeus -1 was overloaded. They'd transported nearly three hundred people.
Previously, in the spaceship, it was definitely crowded and crowded.
Like this, it only took three trips to transport all four Brigades of Star Division's soldiers.
Everyone landed on the ground and quickly hid in the col.
Zeus -1 lifted off once more, looking for a chance to activate the planet's shields before leaving.
Compared to the Red Widows, Moonfiend's defenses were decent, but not as tight.
Lan Jue followed Su Xiaosu's digital map and ordered First Brigade to move out. They were going to take over the mines.
The mines were a long way from the nearest city, and they needed the right ID to get close without anyone noticing.
Absenteeism was a good cover.
Most of the absenteeism here were slaves the pirates had looted from the outside world.
However, in order to give them a better job, and for the sake of the planet's development, the pirates didn't mistreat them too much.
Developing a planet required a large number of people, and every person was a precious resource.
In the Shattered Starfields, people were more valuable than low-level power gems.
When measuring a pirate clan's strength, people were the most important factor.
