Chapter 300: Robbing the Pirate Ship
Beep beep beep…
"Attention, unidentified flying object detected!"
The voice prompt echoed.
On the monitoring screen, a small red dot appeared at the edge of the scanner’s scan area.
Having broken through to the eighth stage of the Human Immortal Stage, Yi Chen’s divine consciousness could now cover a range of eight thousand kilometers.
However, compared to the mini Space Vessel’s impressive scanning distance of one hundred thousand kilometers, this range seemed quite limited.
Yet, Yi Chen’s divine consciousness was a thousand to ten thousand times stronger than the scanning intensity of the mini Space Vessel.
In fact, his divine consciousness strength was even greater than that of a Large Battleship’s scanner.
Due to the great distance, the mini Space Vessel’s scanner could only show a small red dot, failing to reveal the shape and detailed data of the unidentified flying object.
Yi Chen glanced at the destination, the life planet called Fengmang, which was still one hundred million kilometers away.
Checking the speed of the unidentified flying object, he quickly issued a command to the intelligence system to change course and head towards the unidentified flying object.
The unidentified flying object was also heading in the direction of the Fengmang planet.
The intelligence system recalculated the route and moved towards the coordinates where the unidentified flying object was likely to arrive.
As the distance decreased, the screen displayed a clearer image of the unidentified flying object.
It was a gigantic sailing ship.
This massive sailing ship measured ten thousand meters long and one thousand meters wide.
The enormous sails seemed to possess life, constantly fluttering to create powerful propulsion, allowing the giant sailing ship to reach speeds of nearly ten million kilometers per hour.
Once both vessels were only over twenty thousand kilometers apart, Yi Chen directed the mini Space Vessel to change its course and position itself in front of the giant sailing ship’s route. Then, he switched to the flying treasure that could block perception and scanning, waiting patiently.
Leveraging the high-quality resources and materials obtained from two powerful members of the Three-Eyed Tribe, he not only reforged the Binding Immortal Rope and the Map of Mountains and Rivers but also upgraded the flying treasure.
This enhancement increased the speed of the flying treasure by at least ten times, yet its maximum speed could only reach five hundred thousand kilometers per hour, which still fell short compared to the gigantic sailing ship.
He had to wait in advance along the sailing ship’s route.
Soon, the giant sailing ship entered the range of his divine consciousness.
Yi Chen’s divine consciousness was far more potent than the scanning strength of the mini Space Vessel.
He could easily sense that the giant sailing ship had two distinct sections.
On the upper deck, there were over a thousand members of the Swift Tribe and several large full-level fierce beasts.
These members of the Swift Tribe stood about five meters tall.
Their bodies were covered in a layer of strange scales, which were not flat against their skin but stood up like plates.
This was also the main reason the Swift Tribe was named as such.
Their scales were not for defense but for acceleration.
Born with incredible speed, the Swift Tribe’s members utilized these scales that contained the power of wind laws, allowing them to increase their speed dramatically by flapping.
According to his divine consciousness, most of the members of this Swift Tribe were between levels seventy and ninety.
The strongest one, judging by his aura, could reach around level 110.
In addition, there were two other members of the Swift Tribe who were just above level 100.
Inside the cabin of the sailing ship, a huge pile of resources and treasures was stacked, along with several captives from the Black Tiger Tribe.
One of the captives from the Black Tiger Tribe had a golden mark carved on his forehead using special means.
Yi Chen couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.
As he suspected, he had encountered the Space Pirates of the Swift Tribe.
Moreover, they were quite powerful.
This time, they had truly hit the jackpot with various high-quality resources and treasures.
They even captured a chief from the Black Tiger Tribe.
Yi Chen immediately decided to carry out his own pirate venture.
After careful consideration, he ultimately chose the Tianling Star Cluster as the new base for the Great Flame Kingdom because it was far from the human federation, and the nearby Undying Race was engaged in internal strife.
He selected Fengmang planet as the target because it belonged to the territory of the Swift Tribe.
The Swift Tribe was an autocratic regime that ruled over eleven life planets and held considerable strength within the Tianling Star Cluster.
However, they had a terrible reputation for surviving by plundering the resources of other races.
The entire Swift Tribe operated as a massive group of Space Pirates.
They had no allies and instead had enemies everywhere.
Attacking the territory of the Swift Tribe posed little worry about other races coming to their aid.
In fact, if the Swift Tribe weakened, the surrounding races might even join in the attack.
The Fengmang planet, located on the edge of the Swift Tribe’s territory, would be the first target to capture; the neighboring races would prefer to have a buffer zone and would not attack.
This would also help guard against an offensive from the Swift Tribe.
It allowed for both attack and retreat.
Yi Chen’s preliminary plan was to use their methods against them.
The Great Flame Kingdom would initially operate as Space Pirates, plundering the resources of the Swift Tribe. Once their average strength increased, and his Demon Race plan was successfully implemented, he would then occupy the Fengmang planet and use it as a base to gradually erode the entire territory of the Swift Tribe.
For the surrounding races, the Swift Tribe’s speed was frightening, arriving and departing like the wind—truly a nightmare existence.
Yet, in Yi Chen’s eyes, the advantages of the Swift Tribe were insignificant.
In fact, any racial talent advantage seemed trivial.
With him around, the Great Flame Kingdom possessed an all-encompassing talent capable of overpowering any racial talents.
The Swift Tribe’s speed was quick, but he could study and improve the Cloud Treading Technique at various stages to ensure that humanity’s practitioners could move even faster than the Swift Tribe.
Similarly, the Great Flame Kingdom could be seen as the nemesis of any racial talent.
He could also enhance the Method of All Laws to develop a spell that could slow down enemies, specifically targeting the strengths of the Swift Tribe.
Given enough time to develop the Great Flame Kingdom, he would undoubtedly conquer anyone he encountered.
Now, facing a Swift Tribe pirate ship, especially one that was quite powerful, he knew he had to take action.
He drew his immortal sword, gathering his strength and preparing to strike as the giant sailing ship approached.
Seven thousand kilometers, six thousand kilometers, five thousand kilometers…
The giant sailing ship was incredibly swift, quickly closing in to less than one thousand kilometers.
In the blink of an eye, it was only five to six hundred kilometers away.
Suddenly, Yi Chen launched his flying treasure and slashed toward the sails of the giant sailing ship with one sword.
Whoosh!
The sharp Sword Energy soared forth.
In an instant, it broke through the not-so-strong energy shield, slicing the huge sails in half.
The speed of the giant sailing ship plummeted immediately.
"Alert! Enemy attack! The sails have been destroyed!"
"Damn it, which race has the audacity to attack us on the territory of the Swift Tribe?"
The Swift Tribe members responsible for operating and monitoring the ship shouted loudly.
More than a thousand members of the Swift Tribe quickly ceased their training, ready for battle.
When the giant sailing ship came to a halt and they saw that only Yi Chen was approaching, their expressions turned strange.
Which race’s fool was this?
Just one person dared to intercept the Space Pirates of the Swift Tribe?
And it was a royal-level pirate ship with a noble commander on board.
"Hand over everything! You have one minute to abandon the entire pirate ship or you will face dire consequences!"
Yi Chen’s divine consciousness enveloped all the Swift Tribe members.
Though it was his first time as a pirate and he had no experience, his fierce and dominating aura rivaled that of any seasoned pirate.
The tribe members of the Swift Tribe were left dumbfounded.
Even we, who are known as the pirate race, can be robbed?
