#231 - Exposure

“The day before yesterday, nine Apprentice-level.”

“Yesterday at twelve midnight, twelve Vassal-level, three Apprentice-level.”

“Yesterday at noon, five Apprentice-level.”

“Even last night, three Apprentice-level and more than twenty Vassal-level died.”

“Are you guys eating sh*t?”

In the hall at the top of T6, a Meteor-level Star Pirate roared loudly. In front of him, several Apprentice-level Star Pirates were silent, their faces pale.

Too fast. Since the ambush incident the day before yesterday, T6 has been swept by a bloody storm these past few days. One Apprentice and Vassal after another fell in enemy ambushes, and their blood has gathered into small rivers. The entire T6 has fallen into extreme chaos.

This enemy hiding in the dark is too terrifying. No one knows where he is, only that he will always find the Star Pirates' weaknesses, and then strike and flee. His movements are extremely fast and his attacks are ruthless. But he never fights high-level Star Pirates. His targets are all Apprentice-level and Vassals. In just two days, the Star Pirates have suffered astonishing losses.

Several Apprentice-level Star Pirates secretly wiped away their sweat. Now they are certain that the enemy hiding in the dark is at least a Meteor-level figure. But such a figure doesn't fight their higher-ups, and instead vents his anger on them, the Apprentices and Vassals. It's extremely shameless. What's even worse is that all the Star Pirates, including the higher-ups, feel a sense of fear and helplessness. He is like a beast, pouncing the moment he sees prey, and hiding when he sees a natural enemy. Fast, fierce, cruel, and merciless.

No one wants to face this kind of enemy, because in his eyes, the dignity and rules of a Universe Warrior can be ignored. He only cares about efficiency, only cares about results.

What a pervert…

At the thought of the tragic corpses at the scene, several Star Pirates couldn't help but swallow their saliva, their faces showing fear.

The best way to deal with this kind of enemy is to concentrate defenses. But this is easy for ordinary armies, but very difficult for Star Pirates. Everyone is used to being scattered and no one wants to accept restrictions. For example, most of the Star Pirates who died yesterday were guys who sneaked out to enjoy themselves at night. Some died in bars, some died in the streets, and some even died on women's stomachs.

To get them to gather together, unless there is a strong Star Pirate to lead them, but the problem is that none of the higher-ups present meet this condition.

In the hall, the Meteor-level Star Pirate was still roaring loudly, spitting all over the face of the person below.

But no one dared to speak. The roaring Star Pirate was called Tuke, and he was a very violent guy. No one wanted to be caught by him, otherwise the consequences would be too horrible to contemplate.

Tuke roared like this for a long time before he barely took a breath, and glared at several subordinates with resentment.

Get out, and restrain everyone again. Don't go out during this time. Leave the search work to the retinues. Let those freeloaders put in more effort. Even if you can't find anyone, you must increase control. Enforce a curfew, impose control over the areas where ambushes occurred, and blockade all key entrances.

“Lord! Doing so will make the situation tense!” One Star Pirate couldn't help but protest.

Why did they capture T6? One was for that damned Pandora, and the other was for the huge trading volume of the T6 star field. This is profit! It concerns everyone's interests!

But now that Pandora hasn't been found, they want to blockade the trade in T6. Wouldn't that make all their profits go down the drain? Not to mention him, even the Star Pirates below wouldn't agree.

“You idiot, isn’t the situation tense enough now?” Tuke roared again, looking at his subordinate as if he couldn’t make steel from iron. “A Meteor-level who is always lurking in the dark, can you avoid his hunt? Why don’t you understand at this time!”

“…………” The Star Pirate looked at Tuke, and despised him in his heart.

Since you know that the other party is Meteor-level, why don't you deal with it? According to the rules of Universe Warriors, warriors of the same level have the obligation to resist each other. You can't find the other party, but you take it out on your subordinates. You're really incompetent.

But no matter how dissatisfied he was, the other party was still his superior. So the Star Pirate had to go out to carry out the order.

Watching his hurried departure, Tuke took a deep breath, a look of annoyance on his face.

“They are all so useless, why do I always encounter such brainless subordinates?”

“That's because you're brainless enough too. If you had put a little effort into choosing your Vassals, you wouldn't be in such a difficult situation now.”

A voice sounded next to him. Tuke turned his head and immediately saw a warrior in a hooded cloak walking into the hall.

That was a Death Mercenary named Jie, and he was also a high-level figure in this occupation of T6.

Tuke frowned and said with some dissatisfaction. “Don't make fun of me. If you have the time, you should restrain your subordinates. Don't forget, your people account for half of the people who died these days.”

“In fact, it's only one-third.” Jie shrugged. “Our Death Mercenaries have better discipline than your Star Pirates.”

“That's not important. What's important is that we can't continue like this. That guy is simply a butcher, only attacking low-level warriors. Doesn't he have any warrior's dignity?”

“It's better to live without dignity than to die with dignity.” Jie walked to Tuke, picked up a glass of water, and drank it. “I actually think he did a good job. He disrupted our plans with just one person, and almost blockaded T6.”

“He didn't blockade T6.”

“But didn't you just blockade it for him?” Jie smiled slightly. “This is what the Universe Mercenaries have always wanted to do but couldn't. He did it alone. Now it's good, we might as well have occupied this place for nothing.”

“You don't support my order either?” Tuke's eyes narrowed, his voice a little cold.

“No. On the contrary, I think this is the best choice right now.” Jie replied, but his tone was a bit sighing. “It's just a little unwilling.”

The atmosphere gradually became dull. Obviously, both of them were annoyed by this suddenly appearing enemy. After a while, Tuke said with some bitterness. “Actually, we just need to hold on for a while longer. The Star Pirate Alliance has already dispatched new warriors to this place. Soon we will get strong reinforcements.”

“Coincidentally, so are we.” Jie turned his head and glanced at Tuke. “The Death Mercenaries also have a high-level warrior on his way here. It seems we think alike.”

“There's no way, so many people have died, and there's no way to explain it to the higher-ups.” Tuke walked to the window and looked out at the vast space station below, his expression very depressed. “This shows our incompetence. And in this way, our occupation is no longer temporary. The reinforcements from above also need to be compensated. They want to take T6 as compensation.”

“This will escalate the conflict with the Universe Mercenaries.” Jie took over Tuke's words. “This war is getting more and more troublesome. I want to get out of it.”

“I have the same idea.” Tuke shrugged, looking helpless.

The latest novel is first published in 69 Book Bar!

He was about to say something when a Star Pirate hurried in and said to him. “Lord Tuke, we have received news that Lord Lobisk is about to arrive here. The Alliance wants us to prepare for the reception.”

“Is Lord Lobisk finally coming?” Tuke's eyes lit up, and he finally had a hint of happy smile.

Lobisk is the high-level warrior that the Star Pirate Alliance is sending to reinforce T6, a Comet-level expert.

As someone who has entered the realm of advanced life, he possesses many mysterious and unpredictable abilities. With his arrival, the little mouse that has been bothering Tuke these days can be caught.

But before Tuke and Jie could be happy for a while, even more shocking news reached their ears.

A Star Pirate almost ran into the hall, shouting as soon as he came in.

“Found him… We caught that guy!!”

“What!?” Tuke and Jie looked at each other and saw the surprised look in each other's eyes. At the same time, they stood up and rushed outside.

“Let's go, let's go take a look.”

Rushing out of the door, the two even didn't bother to take the speeder, and directly equipped their armor. Then they rushed into the sky and flew in the direction pointed by the Star Pirate…

The discovery location was in the lower level of the space station, which was a bit far from here. But with the acceleration of the armor, it was just a moment away. When Tuke and Jie rushed into the sky above the scene, they found that it had become a slaughterhouse.

On a wide street, there were corpses of Star Pirate retinues everywhere. Roughly, there were at least hundreds of them. The corpses were lying in disorder, and blood and broken limbs were scattered all over the ground. The pungent bloody smell rushed straight into the nostrils, making people want to vomit.

But these are not the most important thing. The most important thing is that in the middle of these corpses, there is a man surrounded by dozens of Star Pirates. This man is wearing a black and red armor, and his face is completely invisible. Around him, seven or eight Star Pirates have fallen. The remaining Star Pirates were nervously surrounding him, carefully maintaining a cordon.

“It's him!”

With just one glance, Tuke and Jie were sure that the other party must be the culprit of the ambush incident.

Because he looked too much like a beast. Even though he was surrounded by so many Star Pirates, he still exuded a wanton wild aura. And the Star Pirates killed by him also had the same characteristics as the corpses obtained before. They were all attacked by strangulation techniques and striking techniques. Most of their limbs were incomplete, and their methods were cruel and violent.

Obviously, he was discovered by other Star Pirates during an ambush, and was dragged until the arrival of reinforcements.

But even so, he still maintained a cold attitude. He coldly looked at the nervous Star Pirates around him, and no expression could be seen under the mask.

In his right hand, he was still holding a dying Star Pirate. Fresh blood flowed down his fingers, leaving conspicuous traces on the Star Pirate's armor.

The arrival of Tuke and Jie obviously boosted the morale of the Star Pirates present, and some even cheered. But the man seemed unable to see the two of them, and still reached out to the neck of the Star Pirate below.

“Hey, wait!” Jie hurriedly shouted loudly, wanting to save the Star Pirate.

“Crack.” The man's hand broke the Star Pirate's neck. The Star Pirate twitched a few times and stopped moving…
