Chapter 1311 - 1058: Crashing into the Warship

At this moment, the heavy-armored warrior had already reactivated the restraint device, because not finding Long Yi and continuing to maintain a high energy output was a very dangerous act. There had to be a certain cooling period between opening and closing it again, so he also seized every moment to let the restraint device recover.

By now, Long Yi had already charged into the interior of the battleship, where some pirates were busily scurrying about. Following his habit of avoiding trouble, Long Yi decisively ignored those who only watched him without taking action. As for those who seemed eager to try, Long Yi directly punched them to death.

"This is the heavy-armored warrior, some dead have been found." The report from the medium-armored warrior inside the battleship came through, causing Mahal’s heart to gradually cool. The interior space of the battleship was limited, and once Long Yi delved too deeply, the heavy-armored warrior might not be able to fight effectively. Moreover, fighting inside the battleship, even if they successfully subdued Long Yi, the battleship would inevitably sustain unbearable damage, and that was absolutely intolerable for the Pirate Group Leader. Thinking this, the pirate squad leader Mahal shuddered. He knew the Group Leader’s methods all too well—the stingiest could not endure any loss. This was also why, right after those monsters left, these pirates immediately sprang into action.

What to do?

"Everyone, prepare to take the Fighting Aura capsules."

Mahal issued the order once more.

This time, all the pirates were stunned.

"Captain, are you crazy? Isn’t there still the heavy-armored warrior? Taking the Fighting Aura capsules now?" several pirates said in amazement.

"The enemy has already stormed the battleship. If the heavy-armored warrior fights inside, it will inevitably bring huge damage to the battleship. You should be very clear about how precious the battleship is to our Group Leader. Taking the Fighting Aura capsules, you would feel unwell for at most three days. But if you don’t take them and let that man get away with or damage the battleship, I don’t need to say how the Group Leader will deal with you, right?"

Mahal spoke indifferently.

Remembering the Group Leader’s face, nearly every pirate shivered. As a person to the pinnacle of frugality, the Group Leader wouldn’t even allow a penny of loss. And now, looking at the huge hole in the battleship, some pirates were already breaking out in cold sweat.

"Damn it! Let’s do this!"

A few pirates, muttering, took out a soft-packaged sphere from their private space, tore it open, squeezed the medicine inside into their mouths.

With a few setting an example, nearly all the pirates followed suit and consumed the Fighting Aura capsules.

In the blink of an eye, a stronger Fighting Aura burst forth from their bodies, and all the pirates felt their strength replenished like never before.

"We only have half an hour! Brothers! Charge!"

The pirates rushed towards the battleship with increased speed.

"Report, this is the heavy-armored warrior, I can no longer continue forward due to the narrow path ahead," the heavy-armored warrior communicated.

"No matter, withdraw for now. The others have already taken the Fighting Aura capsules. Once they drive out that person, you immediately kill him with full force," Mahal said.

"Heavy-armored warrior understands."

Long Yi studied the spaceship carefully and discovered that some basic structures were still the products of Giant technology. The mid-tier Plane, which focused on developing space travel technology, had gone much further in the study of ships compared to the Lower Plane, which was still at an entry-level, making these spaceships much stronger in certain details.

But it was also for this reason that this battleship was actually more fragile.

Precision often meant it was more susceptible to damage, and although it was Long Yi’s first time boarding this ship, it was similar to most Giant-style ships. Its Power Core was located at the central position of the ship, and Long Yi quickly reached the vicinity.

But just at that moment, an immense pressure came from all directions.

Then, a large group of pirates blockaded every passage.

Long Yi recognized a few familiar faces, one of whom had just been pleading with Long Yi not to pursue him. Now their Fighting Aura levels were clearly much stronger than before.

"Did you guys take drugs?" Long Yi asked.

"Damn it, to deal with you, we were forced to take Fighting Aura capsules. You really deserve whatever you get!" a pirate roared.

"Although I don’t know what Fighting Aura capsules are exactly, since you’ve taken drugs, there must be a time limit. If you don’t hurry up and attack, what are you dawdling for?" Long Yi asked with a smile.

Hurry up and attack?

To tell the truth, after taking the drugs and feeling their Fighting Aura skyrocket, a boost in confidence was inevitable. But when they actually stood in front of Long Yi and saw his nonchalant expression, the memory of their large group being chased away by Long Yi moments ago came flooding back.

Before the fight even started, their morale had already taken a threefold hit.

"Damn it! Everyone, attack together! Otherwise, we’ll all die when the time comes!" a pirate shouted.

This was something everyone was painfully aware of. The knights were simply lacking someone to take the lead. Now that they had one, the crowd immediately charged forward.

The spacecraft’s cabin was cramped, making it hard to swing long weapons, so Long Yi simply chose to fight with his fists. The pirates did the same, hurling various Fighting Aura blasts from a distance.

Long Yi dodged the Fighting Aura techniques with a quick sidestep. The attacks hit the wall behind him, shattering components all over the ground and rupturing a pipe, which hissed as it leaked gas.

"You idiot! Don’t use Fighting Aura techniques! Engage in close combat!" another pirate yelled.

In the blink of an eye, the first group of pirates had already charged up, and this was the kind of fight Long Yi liked best. Hand-to-hand combat was his forte!

Both sides were shielded by Fighting Aura, with punches and kicks all enhanced by its power. Thanks to the Fighting Aura capsules, the surrounding pirates weren’t much weaker than Long Yi in terms of pure Fighting Aura.

But in terms of skill, they were far inferior.

Long Yi’s combat skills were honed in two different worlds, combining the technology of his own world with the magic and Fighting Aura of this one. The most common form of combat in the Middle Plane where these pirates operated was usually ship artillery bombardment. When it came time for the pirates to join the fray, it was typically mopping up. Their different focus in combat resulted in a huge gap in strength compared to Long Yi. And this gap manifested in battle as almost a two-punch rhythm.

Indeed, on average, Long Yi could knock down a pirate with every two punches, and once down, they were unable to get up again—including those who could but were playing dead.

As their numbers dwindled, the pirates grew increasingly anxious, but what tactics could one expect from a ragtag mob?

However, it was at this moment that everyone heard a loud roar from behind.

"Everyone, pool your Fighting Aura and push him out!"

The roar came from Mahal, who had been below and was not reassured by the fighting here, so he had followed soon after. The situation he witnessed was far worse than he had anticipated. Although he had guessed the pirates might be no match for Long Yi, he had hoped they could at least entangle him for a while. But upon seeing with his own eyes that Long Yi could take someone down every two punches, he immediately realized the disparity was so great that it couldn’t be compensated for by sheer numbers.

To defeat Long Yi, they would need to rely on heavy fighters!

So he decisively gave the order.

The pirates may have been disorganized, but the strict hierarchy of the Pirate Group taught them to obey commands instinctively. Immediately, everyone concentrated their Fighting Aura and blasted it toward Long Yi from the side. Strong as he was, Long Yi couldn’t just stand still under the barrage of so many attackers. Consequently, he was pushed by the tremendous Fighting Aura, breaking through numerous metal walls and coming out to the exterior of the battleship again.

Just as he appeared outside the battleship, a terrifying energy blast came hurtling towards him. Long Yi instinctively dodged to the side at high speed, avoiding the artillery shot!

Mahal, who had pursued outside, was inwardly shocked by the reaction speed of the man in front of him. The moment Long Yi got outside, while the Fighting Aura blasts had not even dissipated, he was unexpectedly alert to the sudden cannon shot and managed to evade it!

That reaction speed!

But Long Yi was not just facing the ship’s cannons out here! The heavy fighters had been waiting for a long time, and upon seeing Long Yi emerge, he immediately released the energy restrictions, charging at Long Yi with a roar, surrounded by Fighting Aura. Naturally, Long Yi saw him too.

Damn it, daring to use my own creations against me?

Long Yi’s temper flared up, and instead of dodging, he sped up towards the heavy fighter. Engulfed in surging Fighting Aura, he collided with the heavy fighter like two comets smashing into each other!

The two equally matched Fighting Auras exploded upon impact. Suffering from being lighter in weight, Long Yi was sent tumbling backwards by the blast. The heavy fighter, on the other hand, was pushed back a distance, but internal stabilizers allowed him to regain his balance. However, the Battle Armor was not designed for this kind of combat and lacked any cushioning, meaning the heavy impact was entirely borne by the fighter inside.

At this point, the fighter inside was seeing stars, struggling to breathe, and thought of further fighting was out of the question.

Regretting his action, Long Yi’s whole arm was sore. His fist was okay, protected by the Giant’s attribute of his gauntlets, but his shoulder ached sharply, and he felt he might have twisted his back. Although he had anticipated this outcome, Long Yi still chuckled in midair; he had provoked the Pirate Group to test his strength, and now it seemed that even in the Middle Plane, he could hold his own. As for the status of this heavy fighter within this Plane, Long Yi wasn’t quite sure.

But seeing the surprise on the faces of the distant pirates, it seemed that the outcome was beyond their expectations. It looked as though the effect was quite satisfactory.

"Hey! Are you dead?" Long Yi shouted.

The disoriented fighter in the distance was slowly getting his bearings back, hardly believing that despite wearing armor, he was almost knocked unconscious by the bare hands of his adversary!(To be continued.
