Soul Land IV (Douluo Dalu) : Ultimate Fighting

TL : GoldenLung

Lan Xuanyu was stunned by the other party’s swift reaction and immediately reacted. There was no room for hesitation on the battlefield. Both Yin Tianfan and Tang Zhenhua had taught him this before.

The 33 Sky Wings warship charged towards the warship that was blasted away by the main cannon. It was extremely difficult to escape for a warship that had lost its balance.

Soul rays shot out from the secondary cannons and bombarded that warship continuously. The explosion immediately put the other party’s protective shield in danger and was about to collapse.

The main cannon was recharged once again. If the main cannon of an assault warship struck a reconnaissance warship for the second time, the outcome was obvious.

If it were any other Meteor-class warship, the reconnaissance warship would have been able to hold on for at least three times, but the attack power of a Tang Sect’s assault warship was simply too strong. It was impossible for it to even withstand a second attack.

Right at this moment, a scene that Lan Xuanyu and the others didn’t know whether to laugh or cry appeared. On the pirate warship that was about to be destroyed by them, all the skull patterns suddenly changed and became a white flag pattern.

That works too?

‘So the design on the surface of the warship is for this?’

Following the appearance of the white flag pattern, the pirate warship extinguished its main thrusters. Only the protective shield remained.

“Launch the capture shell.” An intense white light shot out from the belly of the 33 Sky Wings warship. The white light dragged along the dazzling flames and landed on the pirate warship almost instantly.

Immediately, a gigantic white net of light enveloped the pirate warship, and the pirate warship cooperatively extinguished its own protective barrier. Since the other party wanted to catch them, it was clear that they had no intention of destroying them.

The effect of the capturing shell was very strong. Its most important ability was to paralyze the enemy warship and prevent it from being able to move. If a warship was hit by a capturing shell, without a protective barrier, all the control systems would be disrupted, causing it to become ineffective.

And if they still dared to resist against the shell, it meant that they would rather die than submit. And following that, the fate of the warship would be being destroyed.

Hence, the capture shell would only be used after gaining an absolute advantage, just like what was happening before them. Upon seeing the 33 Sky Wings warship release a capturing shell, the pirate warship immediately gave up resisting and expressed its subordination.

The capturing shell took effect and caused the pirate warship to be covered in a layer of white light net. Lan Xuanyu controlled the assault warship to turn quickly and chase after another warship. At this moment, the main cannon was fully charged.

But before their main cannons could fire, that pirate warship suddenly released a large number of interference missiles. The purpose of these interference missiles was very simple—they were to disrupt the path of the attack, disrupt their radar, and prevent it from locking onto them.

Lan Xuanyu’s lips curled into a cold smile. “Lock onto that pirate warship 45 degrees to the right. Get ready to launch.”

As he spoke, under his control, the warcraft suddenly swung horizontally. As it flew at high speed, it was as if someone had pushed it from the side, causing it to lose control and drift sideways in space.

The main cannon shot out at this moment. It didn’t attack the pirate warship that fired the interference missile, but instead, it went straight for the pirate warship that was fleeing in another direction.

“Boom——” The protective shield of the pirate warship flashed violently, and it was exactly the same as the first warship. It was directly sent flying.

The 33 Sky Wings warship increased its speed once again and chased after them. The secondary cannons bombarded continuously, and just like the first pirate warship, this pirate warship quickly threw out a white flag to express its submission and was caught by the capture shell in space.

As for the other three pirate warships, they were extremely crafty. They immediately realized how strong this Meteor-class assault warship was. Without hesitation, they released a large number of interference missiles and took advantage of Lan Xuanyu’s attack to escape. They had no intention of fighting at all.

Lan Xuanyu looked at the screen on the radar with some regret. If they had attacked with all their might, they should have been able to catch up to another pirate warship. However, there was a time limit to the effect of the capture shells. If they were to leave for too long because of the pursuit, the two captured pirate warships would probably have already escaped.

After weighing the pros and cons, he decided to give up on the pursuit. At the same time, he couldn’t help but praise in his heart. These pirate warships’ reaction speed was simply too fast, and their judgment of the situation was extremely accurate. They were able to make the best choice when they saw that they couldn’t do anything, and their piloting ability was also very strong.

It was a pity that it was Lan Xuanyu’s first time piloting a space warship with his full strength. He was still more used to space fighters. Compared to them, warships were much more cumbersome and heavy. It was the same for the Tang Sect’s warship. If they had the agility of a space fighter, they might not be able to keep all these pirate warships, but it was very possible for them to keep one or two more.

“The other party wants to contact us,” Lan Mengqin, who was in charge of the communication system, said.

“Everyone, put on your masks,” Lan Xuanyu said.

Everyone put on the black masks that he had distributed previously. Lan Xuanyu then got Lan Mengqin to contact the other party.

Two images appeared: a young man and a middle-aged pirate.

The middle-aged pirate still had implants on him, but the young pirate didn’t. Both of them had the same expression, and both of them had a very flattering face.

“Hello, esteemed pirate general. May I ask why you attacked our Purple Flame? Did we offend you in any way?” The middle-aged pirate was all smiles as he looked at Lan Xuanyu, who was wearing a black iron mask on the screen.

Lan Xuanyu turned on the voice modifier on his mask and said coldly, “Do we need to be offended for attacking you guys? Those who offended us are long dead. We are the 33 Sky Wing Pirates, and I am the Head Wing. Contact your Purple Flame Pirates immediately. If you want your two warships back, show me your sincerity. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being impolite. If your captain wants revenge, fine, we will wait here.”

“Yes, yes, we will contact them immediately,” the middle-aged pirate quickly replied.

Lan Xuanyu said in a low voice, “Hand over your warship’s remote control codes. Otherwise, die!”

The middle-aged pirate and the young and middle-aged pirates’ expression changed. The so-called remote control code for a warship was a special code that could be used by other warships when there was a problem. Once it was controlled, the control system inside the warship would temporarily lose its effect and could no longer be controlled. For these two pirate warships, they would be like meat on a chopping board and could only be slaughtered.

The pirates were obviously unwilling, but seeing that the main cannon of the 33 Sky Wings warship was charging again, in order to survive, they had no choice but to hand over the control codes.

Lan Xuanyu immediately let his teammates control the two warships through the codes. Then, he continued to follow their route and slowly flew towards their destination.

An hour later, an unfamiliar communication signal came over.

Lan Xuanyu picked up the signal.

In the image, a brawny man with short purple hair jumped out. One of his eyes was metallic, and so was half of his head, so his purple hair only appeared on half of his head. He had a ferocious expression.

“33 Sky Wings Pirates! I am the captain of Purple Flame, Shen Junjie. How dare you ignore Heaven Planet’s rules and attack us? Are you courting death!” Shen Junjie’s eyes were about to spit fire as he glared at Lan Xuanyu.

“Rules? Rules are set by humans. I don’t care about rules, I just want to ask you, do you want your warships or not? If you do, you can exchange them for something of equal value,” Lan Xuanyu said coldly.

Shen Junjie roared, “Bastard, do you know that we belong to…” At this point, Lan Xuanyu had already cut off the communication and didn’t give him a chance to speak. It was obvious that the Purple Flame Pirates were affiliated with Sin Planet, but what did this have to do with Lan Xuanyu’s team?
