Chapter 1 Romero's Choice

Romero focused on the speed of the pursuers behind him without panicking. All the insectoid warriors were ready for battle. They had encountered such situations many times. These things often happened near the Kepler star system. Romero had been leading them to guard Kepler. In the solar system, there were quite a few people who scolded him, saying that the insectoids were unreliable and such, but in Kepler, Romero and his people were true guardians.

Along with the shaking of the spaceship, the energy shield of the spaceship had already encountered attacks. The ring-shaped spaceship behind them had already started a frantic attack with particle cannons...

The other side's warp engine was also better. Boom, boom, boom, the spaceship shook violently again. Kevin almost flew out, but Romero grabbed him.

"Exit warp space, prepare for battle!"

There was no way to run now. The other side's pirate ship was faster, and the energy shield wouldn't last too long.

"Kevin, you take the escape pod and leave first."

"Damn it, Romero, we fight together if we fight, and we leave together if we leave. I'm not afraid of death!" Kevin said angrily. Although he didn't have much combat power, he was also an Apocalyptic.

Romero didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "What's with being afraid of death? You don't have any fighting power. I'm afraid you'll hold us back. The other side has probably researched your identity. If you show up, will they let you go? If they target you, we'll have to spare people to protect you. It'll be hard to run even if we can't win."

Kevin was stunned for a moment. "That's true, but what about these spaceships? Won't they be damaged?"

Boom, boom, boom…

The spaceship shook again. Romero grabbed Kevin, who almost flew out. "It shouldn't be a big problem. The other side's models are very mixed, and their combat power won't be too strong. I'll protect them as much as possible. As long as there is life, there is hope."

"That's right, safety first. If the spaceship is gone, we can get another one. Save what we can, and abandon what we can't!" Kevin said.

Romero nodded. "Aier, take Kevin over there."

The spaceship was constantly under attack, and Kevin couldn't even stand still. He also knew that he was a burden at this time, so he followed the arrangement and entered the escape pod. The door closed, and Aier began to set the program.

"Romero's voice came from the ear, destination set to X690 transit stargate, cancel manual, lock automatic driving."

Kevin in the spaceship saw the change of the destination and was a little puzzled. Why not return to Kepler, but go to the transit stargate? That was the territory of the Star Alliance, and it was also a place connecting Kepler where the Orcs had little influence.

Along with a violent shaking, the spaceship left warp space. The Dawn appeared in space, followed by rows of alien spaceships. Although Kevin was smart, he couldn't compare with Romero in judging the battlefield. After fighting with the Orcs many times, after seeing the spaceships of the Celestial Race and the Spirit Race, he knew that this battle was very dangerous. They still underestimated the Orcs and prepared so thoroughly. I'm afraid the road to Kepler was blocked. The ejected escape pod activated stealth mode,

And flew towards the X690 transit stargate in Kevin's curses.

The Dawn was waiting in full battle. It was impossible to outrun them. This would be a fierce battle. In the spaceship, Romero was using the insectoids' unique sound transmission method. More than 500 insectoid warriors were ready for battle.

Looking at the comrades fighting with him, Romero burned with a strong fighting spirit. Living to his age, he could calmly accept the arrangements of fate. He let Kevin go just as a last resort. He could assess the enemy's determination this time. Even if he could survive this time, it would probably be a pyrrhic victory.

At that time, there would really be no way to take care of Kevin. Letting him leave was the best way. At the same time, he

Had to consider more serious situations.

"All prepare for battle!"

The insectoid warriors all took out K23 weapons. Although they were not as good as the Tianwu, the insectoids were equivalent to biochemical Tianwu. Silicon-based armor, Polina also strengthened their silicon-based armor capabilities during this period. With the K23 weapon, their combat power still had an advantage against ordinary Orcish warriors.

The corner of the mouth of Commodore Kuo, the leader of the Black Wind Pirate Group, was already drooling with excitement. He was a professional

Pirate, in addition to robbing merchant groups, he also took private jobs, such as dealing with some things that the Orcs were not convenient to directly deal with. Romero, this kind of grafted insectoid, had a reward of up to 50 million Star Coins, as well as five of the latest ring-shaped spaceships. The opponent was a pile of broken modified merchant ships and a group of useless insectoids. At the same time, the Star Patrol had arranged that they would not appear. And he did receive the news that the Star Patrol team at the Massa Stargate had gone to another area for exercises. This was an "official mission." He would take 100 orders of such good things.

"Brothers, aim accurately, don't destroy the ship. All my good stuff is on it, fire!" Countless light cannons lit up the starry sky. The energy shields of the spaceships were opened one after another. The Dawn

Fired back, laser cannons roared and lit up the sky. The pirate ships instantly dispersed and began to bombard the Dawn. The bottom hatch of the Dawn opened, and Romero had already flown out with the insectoid warriors. All the insectoid warriors were very familiar with space combat. Romero brought all the elites, some of whom had stealth abilities, and had disappeared into space, heading towards the other side's spaceship. The others also dispersed instantly. The Orcs on the pirate side also put on Orcish armor and prepared for battle.

Romero, with K23 bone blades burning in both hands, had already invaded a damaged spaceship. The pirates immediately greeted him, and Romero tore them apart in one encounter. After a burst of fighting, the combat power of these guys was not as strong as imagined. This made Romero breathe a sigh of relief. He let Kevin go first as a worst-case scenario. Of course, it would be best if these pirates were not strong. Their combat power only needed to take down one-third of the other pirates, and they would flee.

The insectoid warriors did not entangle, and the first target was to destroy the engines of the spaceships. The pirates used light spaceships, and the insectoids were quite confident.

The great battle became fierce as soon as it started. The shield of the Dawn had been shot down, and the spaceship was severely damaged, but the pirates had stopped attacking. Destroying the Dawn at this time was useless. The insectoids had boarded the ship, and more importantly, there were five ring-shaped spaceships on it. Looking at the large number of pirate ships, they were basically some average spaceships, and they were all old and broken. These five brand-new G800s were worth dozens of them, and it was said that the weapon system was complete. Where could they encounter such a good thing when robbing at ordinary times?

Commodore Kuo was still very satisfied. Although entering the Star Alliance area was a bit risky, the key was that the other side had no frigates, just a modified wreck. It was worth taking a little risk for such a fat sheep, but he soon found that something was wrong. His subordinates were crying and reporting that the combat power of these insectoids was very strong, and they were not afraid of death. They were like a bunch of lunatics.

The image switched. The big cigar in Commodore Kuo's mouth fell. The insectoids were causing damage everywhere. Ordinary Orcish warriors couldn't stop them. What was going on? Weren't they some weak grafted insectoids?

Each of them had silicon-based armor inlaid with K23 energy crystals. How could this be weak? Humans and many creatures could not directly use this K23 crystal, but the insectoids of Kepler were unique.

I don't know what method Nangong Yuhang and Theseus used to complete the creation. Later, Polina also strengthened this transformation. However, the life span of the insectoids still could not be solved, but everyone

Didn't care. Following Romero was the will and fate of the insectoids. Some were humans, and some were clones, but no matter which one, Romero was their closest reliance now. Not afraid of death, fighting was the only remaining meaning. There were also powerful warriors among the Orcs. Some insectoids were injured and trapped, and they detonated themselves without hesitation. This was the reason why the number of insectoids was decreasing. Those who were seriously injured and alive would eventually self-detonate. This was also the positioning of the insectoids by Nangong Yuhang at the beginning, life weapons.

It's just that the previous detonation was passive, and the current detonation was active. Romero could feel that his comrades, his clansmen, were decreasing one by one. In fact, for everyone, it was not a kind of relief. The clones were better, but the former humans were able to persist without going crazy completely relying on a kind of obsession to fight for Kepler. They hoped that this kind of death was as a human warrior, not as a monster.

Half an hour after the start of the war, nearly a hundred insectoid warriors had been killed or injured. The injured insectoids in space would choose to detonate themselves. The combat power of this pirate group was still quite strong, but they also underestimated the power and determination of the insectoid warriors led by Romero. Romero had destroyed two ring-shaped spaceships and was attacking the third one when a particle cannon bombarded him. Romero instantly activated his ability, time expansion.

Commodore Kuo was stunned. He used to be a sergeant in the Anthem and had seen insectoids. Ordinary insects

People were not so strong, let alone a new civilization, how could they have such strength?

The energy shield opened, and the particle rotating cannon began to sweep wildly, and Romero's figure had disappeared.

He had already found the pirate leader's spaceship. Kevin's escape pod was still flying towards the predetermined route, which could not be changed once launched, but he could still maintain contact with Romero.

Seeing that Romero and others had the upper hand, Kevin also cheered loudly, "Romero, you are deliberately doing it, what are you afraid of a bunch of rabble, you are Romero, the lone wolf who used to be fearless, how are you like me now!"

Romero smiled slightly, "Then you must have some misunderstanding about me. I have always been cautious and careful since the Apocalypse, and I have become even more cautious after being educated by Brother Li. If anything happens to you, I won't be able to clear my name even if I jump into the Yellow River. Watch me catch this pirate leader first and then pick you up."
