death of hope

Chapter 128 "Enterprise Warrior" (44) Prelude to Battle

Before the battle begins,

Shaft turned off the lighting equipment in the casino, even the emergency lights and atmosphere light strips,
He also turned on the cruise ship's emergency PA system as a prank, and played a piece of his favorite witty music from the funny soap opera "Mr. Funny".

In the casino, the dazzling neon lights were all extinguished in an instant,

The rattling sound of slot machines and roulette machines stopped abruptly, the casino hall was pitch black, and the originally humorous music seemed strange and terrifying.

After a few seconds, the pirates gradually came to their senses, and the collapsed emotions continued to spread unstoppably, turning into a mess:

"X's! Who the hell turned off the lights! What's with the damn music?"

"The door is locked...we're all locked up here!"

"It must be the corporate fighters...they are playing tricks! It's too late to retreat!"

"There must be an electrician among the hostages, find out and let him fix it! If he can't fix it, kill him!"

"Don't be stupid, it's too late! Turn on the tactical lights! Keep an eye on the gate and other entrances!"

"You think you can win? They... controlled the lighting and broadcasting system! Our every move has been monitored! He's fucking! This time we're dead!"

"Big guy, run away! Save yourself!!"

Some militants of the Red Skull Pirates put down the banknotes and jewels they had just looted, and fell into fear and confusion.

Everyone pushed and quarreled with each other because of their differences. Some wanted to run away, while others vowed to fight to the end.

These people are notorious for their carelessness and cowardice. In the star area ruled by the human federation, there are countless gangsters who can be named Jiangyang, as well as various interstellar gangs, and the Red Skull Pirates have always been the weakest of them all. That file is a disgrace to criminal organizations.

Because of frequent inexplicable mistakes, many robberies ended in failure, repelled by bank security, repelled by store employees...

While robbing a small cruise ship full of retirees, the heavily armed pirates were actually repelled by a group of retired old men and old ladies who were traveling, and they left their companions' corpses and fled in a panic.

This farce became famous for a while, and the Red Skull Pirates became top Internet celebrities for a while, the endorsement of (Loser) losers,
Bounty hunters are not interested in chasing him due to his strength.

After several years of continuous failures, their rewards have not increased but decreased. The hosts of major TV stations have defined this organization as "a group of comedians".

It made the Red Skull Pirates the laughing stock of colleagues and ordinary people after dinner.

The successful robbery of the Shangri-La cruise ship this time is a beautiful turnaround. The pirates have gained a lot. Feeling the heavy jewelry and cash in their backpacks, if they can defeat the corporate fighters and escape, they will be financially free for the rest of their lives. worry.

The temptation is too great, but everyone can't help but ask themselves, can they really overcome it?
We all know how terrifying the corporate fighters we are about to face are,
As early as a few decades ago, with the expansion of corporate colonialism,
These combat elites employed by large companies have already burned the flames of war all over the major colonial star regions,
They are making profits for giant corporations in the guns, and the mothers of the outlying star regions use the deeds of these people to scare the children, so that they dare not cry.

It is said that all corporate fighters have received systematic and good military training,
Well-equipped, not inferior to the regular federal army. Rumor has it that these people are all desperadoes who want money and life. They are all ruthless and murderous.
The degree of viciousness and strength is by no means comparable to that of federal agents, and its plundering behavior is more like interstellar pirates than interstellar pirates.

No matter how incompetent the federal politicians are, no matter how corrupt the magistrates and military police are, there is always a bottom line.
Entrepreneurs with big brains don't have such worries. In order to extract more profits, they can do anything. Corporate fighters are a group of elite thugs they raise.

The fear of corporate warriors is deeply rooted in everyone's childhood shadow.

A voice exploded in the chaotic quarrel:

"Why panic! We have a large number of people, we have a geographical advantage, and our firepower is not weak! And there are hostages!"

The person who spoke was the leader of the pirates, a tall and thin man nicknamed "Captain Iron Hook",

The space pirates didn't know the boss's real name, and they all called him Jack Sparrow. They saw him grabbing a fleeing subordinate, grabbing his neck and spitting and reprimanding him:
"Little Clark! Stop for me! I didn't see you contribute when you hijacked the ship, but you are fighting for the first place in escaping, brat, if you run again, you will be killed!"

Jack Sparrow tries to revive morale, but with little success,

At least half of the pirates are already thinking about how to escape or surrender.Even after betraying him, the other half is still vacillating.

After all, most of the people follow the same diet and firmly support the leader of the pirates. There are only a few fellow villagers and buddies who followed him from the beginning. In order to persuade their companions, these people began to play double reeds:

"Think about how many brothers died in order to rob this ship."

"That's right, why should you hand over the hard-earned treasure to others! Keep your positions and prepare for battle!"

"Guys! Listen to me, don't get your calves cramp when you hear about corporate warriors!
Everyone has guns!They all carry a head on their shoulders, who is afraid of whom! "

"Kill the eagle dogs of this group of companies! We will have a great reputation! We will be ashamed!"

"Yes... yes! You guys are right!

Give Lao Tzu cheers up, if you feel sleepy or timid, take drugs to solve it! "

Seeing that the pirates' emotions were mobilized, Jack Sparrow burst into ecstasy and shouted:
"It doesn't matter whether he is a federal special police or a corporate soldier! Come and kill one! Come and kill a pair!
Put up my Gatling revolver!Anyone who dares to come in will be smashed into a sieve! "

The pirates thought about it, but they couldn't escape.
Piracy is a felony. If you are caught, no matter which star sector you go to for trial, you will inevitably be sentenced to death. Even if you escape death, you will have to be tortured by the lunatics in the prison.

It's better to just fight to the death and break the net, and it won't be in vain to live through this,
So he closed his eyes, his heart was bent, and he stomped his feet and said in agreement:
"Boss is right! Brothers finally managed to become a big one! We must keep this wealth!"

The wages of avarice is death,
Those who were vacillating gradually gripped their guns tightly, determined to fight with their lives:
"Machine guns up, grenades ready!"

At this moment, the broadcast music stopped abruptly, and a rude and low voice appeared on the loudspeaker;

"Hey, hello, can you hear me?"

"Grandson, who are you!" A pirate yelled wildly, causing a burst of laughter.

As the volume was turned up to the highest level, the voice of the person speaking on the loudspeaker was like thunder, shaking the eardrums:

"I'm a corporate warrior,
Captain Marcus Lynch,
No more nonsense,
Give you 30 seconds to consider your own future,
Handcuffs or coffin, choose! "
