Chapter 978: Chapter 967: Interstellar Plane 3

They got on the spaceship in the last ten minutes, found their seats, and just as they settled in, the spaceship reminded everyone to sit tight as it was about to take off.

"Looking forward to exploring the cosmic space," knowing Xia Yue liked the window seat, the System had provided her with one. Gazing at the scenery outside the spaceship, Xia Yue was filled with anticipation for the journey into space.

"I heard there’s also space jumping, but first-timers on a spaceship might feel dizzy and nauseous, similar to motion sickness." Yan Mo also looked outside, his eyes filled with anticipation.

There weren’t many people on the spaceship; after all, spaceship tickets were expensive, and this was Marginal Star where few could afford them.

Soon, the spaceship swiftly ascended, crossing the atmosphere within minutes, flying into space.

"Wow, so beautiful." Watching the starry sky outside, Xia Yue was slightly overwhelmed; this was her first time seeing the stars, and it was nothing like the photos.

Yan Mo clenched his fists in excitement, wishing they had such technology on their side.

The starry sky was beautiful, but after a while, she felt somewhat fatigued by the view and started feeling a bit of motion sickness.

"I’m feeling a bit queasy, I’m going to sleep for a bit," Xia Yue told Yan Mo, then leaned back in her seat and closed her eyes to sleep.

"Okay, I’ll wake you later for food," Yan Mo nodded. It would take thirty more hours to reach Aida, and sleeping through wouldn’t really work.

Aside from carrying a few passengers, the spaceship also transported a large amount of cargo.

Thus, their spaceship caught the attention of interstellar pirates.

Five hours into the flight, a spaceship suddenly appeared ahead and blocked their path.

"Attention, people on the opposing spaceship, you’re now surrounded. Open the connecting channel and let us in, or don’t blame me for using the Photon Cannon," a booming transmission suddenly reached the spaceship where Xia Yue and others were.

"What!?"

"What’s that sound?!"

"It’s space pirates, we’ve encountered interstellar pirates! Ahhh oh no, I don’t want to die."

The cabin erupted into chaos like a drop of water in sizzling oil.

Cries, curses, and panicked shouts erupted.

The attempts of the spaceship’s crew to calm everyone through the loudspeaker were futile.

"What’s happening?" Xia Yue, awakened by the noise, drowsily opened her eyes and asked Yan Mo beside her.

"It seems we’ve encountered a robbery," Yan Mo said calmly.

"What?!" Xia Yue immediately woke up, her eyes wide as she stared at him.

"I wonder if the spaceship’s crew can handle it," Yan Mo continued.

"Unless they have powerful weapons, they’ll likely comply," Xia Yue said grimly, her face twisted in distress. Such bad luck to encounter this on her first spaceship ride.

She took a moment to vent at the System in her mind, trying to calm herself.

System: ...The Host is really unlucky; it didn’t know the spaceship would be intercepted by space pirates.

They soon learned the situation.

A group of fierce-looking individuals, armed, herded the crew towards the passengers.

Everyone who saw this was too frightened to speak.

"Very good, nobody make noise; I hate noise. Now transfer your Neural money to this account, no tricks. If you try anything, don’t blame us for being rude," the leader said with a menacing grin.

Then, gesturing to the back, three or four individuals approached the passengers with a device, urging them to transfer their Star Dollars.

The passengers, despite their defiance, could only endure, fearing for their lives.
