Lan Jue followed her gaze, and caught sight of a woman passing in front of him.
Just as Xiaosu had said, this woman had an excellent figure.
She was about 1.8 meters tall, with a voluptuous figure. Her waist was so slender that one could wrap their arms around it.
Every curve of her body was so perfect and captivating.
From Lan Jue and Xiaosu's vantage point, they could only see the side of her face.
Her face was fair, and her eyelashes were long and curling.
Her long purple hair flowed down her back, all the way to her hips.
It covered the top of her buttocks.
Her gait was lithe and graceful. Her black combat uniform covered her delicate body, revealing her perfect figure.
Lan Jue smiled. "I didn't expect there to be another beauty in your crew.
Do you know her? "
Xiaosu shook her head. "I don't know why, but she's a little strange.
Women like her are rare in a pirate crew. "
"Oh?
Why is that? "Lan Jue asked.
"This is a pirate crew, not one of the Major League," Xiaosu explained.
"Even when I was in charge of the Moonfiend Pirates, I couldn't guarantee that my men wouldn't do something like rape.
Most beautiful women are a sad existence in a pirate crew. They become playthings or rely on the strong. "
She purposefully glanced at Lan Jue as she said the last few words.
Lan Jue pretended not to understand. "Are you saying she's the wife of a powerful pirate?"
Xiaosu shook her head. "No, that's not it.
If she's the wife of a powerful pirate, how could she still be a virgin? "
"Virgin?" Lan Jue asked in surprise.
"How do you know she's a virgin?"
Xiaosu rolled her eyes at him.
"That's a matter of eyesight. You're surrounded by beautiful women, how could you not know?"
Lan Jue rubbed his nose and smiled wryly. "I really don't know!
I sensed a bit of energy coming from her, but it wasn't strong.
She's probably a second or third level Adept.
He was considered a very ordinary Arcanist.
If she was still a virgin, it would be easy to explain.
If it wasn't the woman of a powerful pirate, then it was the daughter of a powerful pirate.
Since there are people protecting him, there won't be any problems. "
Xiaosu frowned. "Maybe.
Boss, seeing such a beautiful woman.
Aren't you tempted?
Her figure was really good!
I think she's even more voluptuous than Mika. Her waist is so slender, and her legs are so long.
I can't help but like it. "
Lan Jue snapped, "We're here on a mission, not for you to be a matchmaker.
Let's go, it's about time to go back. "
At this moment.
The woman had already passed the street ahead and was walking towards a building.
Because of Xiaosu's teasing, Lan Jue couldn't help but look at her a few more times. The woman was about to enter the building when she stopped and turned her head to look in their direction. Her eyes met Lan Jue's.
Seeing her appearance, Lan Jue could not help but be slightly stunned.
It was indeed beautiful.
This woman was breathtakingly beautiful.
She looked to be about twenty years old, and her appearance was as perfect as her figure.
Yes, in addition to being perfect.
Lan Jue could not find another adjective to describe her appearance.
The woman's eyes were devoid of emotion. She looked at Lan Jue for a moment, then turned and walked into the building.
Lan Jue's eyes flashed with suspicion. "I think there's something wrong with her."
Xiaosu giggled. "Do you want to follow and see?"
Lan Jue raised a hand and knocked her on the head. "I'm serious.
It's so far away.
She seems to be able to feel my gaze.
With my current level of cultivation, I can hide my aura very well.
She can also detect that the possibility of her being a second or third level Adept isn't high.
Unless her innate perception is particularly strong.
Besides.
She looks a bit too perfect. In this world, there shouldn't be a flawless existence!
Her perfection seems to be at odds with the rest of the world. "
Xiaosu laughed. "That's enough, boss.
And you say you're not tempted?
You're making her look like a goddess. Let's go, let's go back.
We've seen enough. Now it's time to split up and buy some clothes.
It's not easy to get into Luna City looking like a miner. "
"Yeah."
Lan Jue didn't want to complicate matters. The woman was a bit strange, but she was at most a pirate. Proper business was more important.
The two of them returned to the slums.
The sky was darkening by the time they arrived.
The scouts of the Fourth Brigade had returned one after another, bringing back news after news.
With Xiaosu's information, the scouts were able to focus on specific targets.
By the time night fell, the news from all sides had almost been gathered.
Lan Jue called for a meeting of the senior officers.
"The situation is neither good nor bad. From what we've gathered, there are over thirty thousand pirates stationed on Moonfiend. Ten thousand of them have enough mecha suits to make up an entire division.
There were twelve battleships and more than fifty patrol boats.
That's more than fifty percent of the Moonfiend Pirates' forces.
The rest are probably stationed on the other two planets. "
"What's more troublesome is that because each pirate crew has a certain degree of independence, they are stationed separately in a few places.
Their bases are built around the airship hangars.
Moonfiend had three hangars, but now there are five. Each one has a different number of battleships.
The largest, which was once the Moonfiend Pirates' hangar, has seven battleships.
Our manpower is limited. Third and Fourth Brigades don't have enough people to cripple all of their ships. "
"But they're scattered. Moonfiend's defenses aren't as tight. Sneaking in won't be a problem.
Now we need to focus on how to deal with the battleships. "
"The more battleships there are, the more pressure we'll have to face," Xiaosu said.
"But we have to deal with them first.
Battleships are too powerful. If the pirates use them against us, it'll be hard to avoid casualties.
Especially battleships.
Even a ninth level Adept with a mecha suit wouldn't be able to withstand the power of a battleship's main cannon. "
The Coffee Master's brows furrowed. "Third Brigade is a bit short on manpower. We can handle one of the larger hangars.
However, it will be more difficult to manage five bases at the same time. "
The Bartender nodded in agreement. "That's a problem. We won't be able to control them in a short amount of time.
We'll have to make choices.
Is it possible to have Zeus-1 attack a smaller base? With Zeus-1's stealth capabilities, we should be able to inflict heavy losses if they're caught off guard. "
"Zeus -1 can handle an airship hangar," Xiaosu said.
"But the Moonfiend Pirates' biggest hangar is protected by a protective shield.
We won't be able to take it by force, and infiltration will require a lot of manpower.
Even if we send a squad to control each ship, we'll need a lot of manpower. "
According to Xiaosu's original plan, if the Moonfiend Pirates still had three hangars, Third and Fourth Brigades would each take one. Their job would be to cause destruction, so it wouldn't be too difficult.
Then Zeus-1 would deal with one of them. Overall, they were more than enough.
First and Second Brigades quickly occupied the Moonfiend Palace.
Third and Fourth Brigades provided support.
Majesty and the Photographer each took control of a planet.
If they could inflict enough damage to the pirates, they'd be victorious.
After all, the pirates were under different orders. They didn't know how many enemies they had.
But now, there was a problem. Out of the five spaceship bases, there were two more, and they were immediately stretched thin in terms of manpower.
Dealing with them would be more troublesome.
"Leave one to me," the Gourmet said.
"I'll take one as well," the Pharmacist said.
The Driver chuckled. "I don't think there should be any heroism in the military, but now I think it's really satisfying!"
Lan Jue looked at the Gourmet and the Pharmacist. "It's dangerous. You'll be facing battleships."
The Gourmet smirked. "It's not dangerous.
Can't we just run if we can't?
Besides, we're here to cause destruction.
You're not a Paragon yet, so you don't know how much destruction a Paragon can cause. "
"Speed is the key," the Pharmacist said. "I can handle that.
I just need to destroy the main control system, right?
I need detailed information on where they're located. I should be fast enough. "
This was one of the benefits of having as many experts as there were clouds in the sky. In a way, the Pharmacist, with her Occisus, was no less powerful than an average Paragon with the Realm of Protogenia.
Needless to say, the Gourmet was a true Paragon.
Lan Jue nodded decisively. "Alright, it's settled.
Bartender, you and Fourth Brigade will be in charge of the largest hangar. You'll be in charge of First Brigade's Ace Squad. Other than the Pharmacist, you can split the rest of the Ace Squad among your own squads. "
"Coffee Master, your Third Brigade will be in charge of this hangar.
Destroy it as fast as you can.
Your side will be easier. If possible, take over one of the battleships while you're at it.
Then take the battleships to support the Bartender.
You just need to destroy these hangars so they can't take off, and your mission will be complete.
Once you're done, wait for word from us, and then head back to Luna. "
