Although they heard that there were pirates attacking the city, there weren't any disturbances. All the citizens stayed at home. The streets of the entire city had been emptied. The police system and mining mecha had also been requisitioned. They had barely gathered a mecha team of less than 200 people to defend the Ice Spear City. However, it was obvious that such a "motley crew" could only put up a front. Once they met a real mecha team, they would be defeated in an instant. However, there was no other choice. There were also many types of pirates. It was still alright to meet those who would rob without any regard for their lives. However, there were some pirates who didn't care about the rules of the Milky Way Alliance at all. They would burn, kill, and loot unscrupulously. That would be dangerous.
The four teams of Ai Xiaolu and the rest had already rushed out and disappeared into the vast ice fields. The four teams had split into four directions and were fighting their own battles. At this moment, there wasn't any so-called command strategy.
Redington and Shien didn't escape. They couldn't ignore the consequences. It was definitely necessary to investigate with all their might. However, Redington and Shien would definitely not fire the first shot. If they could fish in troubled waters, they wouldn't be afraid to snatch some battle merits. However, the truth was that both of them were very clear that fighting with the DK Pirate Crew was simply courting death.
This didn't mean that the students of Elite Academy weren't strong. It was just that this trial was still an individual one. There wasn't much teamwork. As for the DK Pirate Crew, there were 100 small teams. Every small team could be considered as veterans and had good teamwork. Although the transaction this time wasn't huge, other than plundering, the Cronode Family would also give them a huge reward. Therefore, the strength of this Crew wouldn't be too weak.
Shien and Redington's plan was to eliminate one or two small teams when the other party was retreating. A frontal attack was definitely not possible.
However, the bad news still came. Tank City had been burnt. When the news reached the Ice Spear City, it still caused panic. Moreover, the communication with the outside world was still in a state of being cut off.
Normally, pirates wouldn't leave no way out. Unless it was the Milky Way Alliance's S-class wanted pirate crew. These pirate crews had already lost all humanity. Human rights and the terms of the Milky Way Alliance's treatment of captives were completely useless to them. The men would be killed and the women would be sold as slaves. It could be said that they were the darkest side of humanity left behind from the Great Interstellar Voyage.
More often than not, there were experts in such pirate groups.
At this moment, Tank City had already sunk into a sea of fire and cries. Bartley looked down at everything from above. The soldiers were looting the city. This time around, their collaboration with the Cronode Family naturally didn't include this. However, they were pirates and not subordinates of the Cronode Family. Since they were here, they couldn't return empty-handed.
"Captain, I didn't expect an inconspicuous mining planet to be so rich." Standing beside Bartley was a slender middle-aged woman in her fifties. She was the chief of staff of the DK Pirate Group's Blood Thirst Column, Karen. Some of the stronger pirate groups were even stricter than the regular army. They were all highly militarized.
Bartley's lips curled into a smirk, "Where there are people, there will be wealth. Our DK is too cheap if you think you can get rid of us with just a mining area's resources."
"The Cronode Family can only suffer in silence this time."
Bartley shook his head slightly, "The Cronode Family definitely knew that we would do this. They aren't idiots either. Since they invited us over, they have to pay the price. Moreover, they aren't the ones who will suffer the most. The fiercer we are, the more they want to play with us."
"Captain is wise. You have completely seen through them." Karen smiled, "It is because of these rich families that we have the space to survive."
Bartley didn't smile. His face was still cold, "Let the brothers hurry up. There is still time. We can also take down the Ice Spear City at the same time."
Karen was slightly stunned, "Captain, there seems to be some trouble at the Ice Spear City …"
After all, there was Shien Cronode, Ai Xiaolu and the people from the Elite Academy. These people weren't ordinary. The warriors had zero casualties now. If they were to go over there …
Bartley looked at Karen faintly and didn't say a word. Karen shivered and immediately passed down the order.
The Cronode Family had really miscalculated. They thought that the DK Pirate Crew would leave some bottom line and at least make preparations for future cooperation. However, a pirate crew that was classified as an S Class would usually not act according to common sense.
Karen was very clear why. It was because of the blood and fire in Tank City. This had made the Blood Thirst Column Captain excited. Since they had killed, they had to kill to their heart's content. So what if they didn't resist? They had to kill those who resisted.
Being strong meant being willful and unreasonable.
It was just that the situation was a little out of control. Karen was really afraid. Pirates were particular about coming and going like the wind and launching sneak attacks. If they were trapped in Aisbotan, it would be a dead end for them.
The Cronode Family had contacted DK through the underworld. Both parties wouldn't meet face to face directly. Some things could be understood. After all, the Cronode Family had relied on this to rise. If it was a small pirate crew, they might just leave after taking advantage of them. However, everyone had neglected Bloody Killer Bartley.
When she heard the words Elite Academy, Karen was a little worried. She didn't expect things to happen.
Bloody Killer Bartley was also famous in the underworld. He was an Earth-rank expert, a figure on the X Battle Power Rankings and a general of DK. There were many Federation elites that had died in his hands, including a Major General.
No one knew what feud Bloody Killer had with the Elite Academy. However, if there was a chance to massacre the Elite Academy, Bartley would definitely not miss it.
After Bartley's order was passed down, the army had retreated from Tank City in a short span of 3 hours. Following a series of explosions, Tank City had completely turned into a sea of fire.
Not a single soldier was left!
The transport aircraft continued to send resources and slaves to the battleship from afar. As for the mecha column, they changed their direction and headed towards the Ice Spear City.
In the system of Tank City, Bartley had already gotten what he wanted. 41 kittens. This was the most valuable thing.
To the students of the Elite Academy X, regardless of gender, they could be sold for a good price. If they were beauties and were virgins, they would be sold for a sky-high price.
The information was very clear. When he saw Snow Lee, Ai Xiaolu and the other girls, Bartley's expression became exceptionally ferocious and cold. It was especially so for Snow Lee and Ai Xiaolu. Even he knew about these two. One of them was the blessed girl who was born in the year of the Dancing Ice Dragon and the other was the beloved daughter of the Aishi Financial Group. Hehe, this Cronode Financial Group was also up to no good.
As for Shien Cronode, Bartley wasn't really interested. Although he was unscrupulous in his actions, he wasn't brainless. His only bottom line was to keep Cronode alive. This was considered a trade.
The mecha column was moving majestically on the ice field. Bartley was piloting a super warrior and was at the front. He liked the feeling of riding on a flat plain and having the world under his feet.
Obviously, Bartley was looking forward to the battle later on. That would let his almost frozen blood and soul feel a little warmth and let him know that he was still alive.
… What was that?
At the end of the ice field, there seemed to be a small black dot.
