Lin Wei Yu stared at the Star Pirates' assault boat outside the porthole, a dangerous curve slowly forming on her lips.
"Little System, how much do you think this group of Star Pirates' spaceship is worth?"
"According to the average price in the interstellar black market, an assault boat is worth at least 1 billion star coins."
"But this Little System does not recommend the host—"
"If you don't recommend it, shut up."
Lin Wei Yu deftly used a vanadium alloy knife (still from the original owner's collection) to pry open a section of the room's wall, revealing the wiring and panel underneath.
Beside her, Beibei obediently held out a data cable to Lin Wei Yu.
After Lin Wei Yu took it, it connected the other end of the data cable to the antique computer's port.
Although Lin Wei Yu was not skilled in programming, the original owner was a genius in this area, so she operated it step by step according to the original owner's memory, and actually managed to open the door lock.
As the door lock unlocked, a "boom" sound came from outside, accompanied by shaking.
It must have been the commotion caused by the Star Pirates boarding the ship.
"The host is planning a dangerous operation."
"It is recommended that the host stay safely in the room. According to Little System's detection, the people on the escort spaceship have no ill intentions towards the host."
"Moreover, the escort spaceship has a very high safety factor, and the Star Pirates are highly likely to fail."
"If you can't help, shut up. I like to hold my destiny in my own hands."
Lin Wei Yu pressed the enter key, and the spaceship's broadcast suddenly blared a deafening oiiai~ oiiai~.
This was a brainwashing electronic music she had just simply synthesized using software, which should cause some interference to those Star Pirates.
"Beibei, take this and find a way to install it on the Star Pirates' spaceship." Lin Wei Yu handed Beibei a USB drive.
Beibei stored the USB drive in its abdominal storage compartment and followed Lin Wei Yu out the door.
After only a few steps, it stopped and tilted its head, looking at Lin Wei Yu, wondering why she hadn't followed.
"I still have something to do before I leave. Beibei, you go first. Be sure to be careful and don't get hurt."
Although Beibei was worried about its owner, it understood that it had to obey its owner's instructions.
It blinked its indicator lights a few times, indicating that Beibei understood, then quickly switched forms, turning into a gecko, and climbed onto the ceiling towards the Star Pirates' spaceship.
Lin Wei Yu, on the other hand, turned and ran towards the escape pod area.
Along the way, she used a laser pointer, found from her spatial button, to destroy the surveillance cameras.
Gunfire constantly echoed from outside; she hadn't encountered anyone along the way, likely because most of the people on the spaceship had gone to resist the Star Pirates.
After arriving at the escape pod, Lin Wei Yu pulled open an escape pod hatch, threw in a dummy made of a quilt and clothes, and pressed the escape button.
After completing the operation, Lin Wei Yu asked the Little System.
"Little System, Little System, my novice mission should be considered complete, right?"
The Little System watched as the two groups of people, who were clearly in a firefight, unconsciously hummed along to the electronic music.
One Star Pirate even got punched by his comrade for humming "oiiai~" and wiggling his butt.
It hadn't expected the host to complete the mission so quickly.
"Congratulations to the host for completing the novice mission."
"Rewards have been issued to the host."
"Oh, it's a novice gift package~ If I can draw something useful from it, like an optical stealth device, it will definitely make me more motivated and work harder to earn more literary points~"
Little System: ......Although it knew the host was deliberately saying it for its benefit, it was shamelessly tempted. What should it do?
The Little System secretly pulled out "New System Must-Reads: A Complete Guide to Host Psychology" and found a line: "To make a horse run, you must feed it well," and "To make a donkey move, hang a carrot in front of it."
The Little System pretended to nod profoundly, thinking, 'That makes sense. I'll give the host some benefits then.'
"The novice gift package might contain what the host wants. Does the host wish to open the novice gift package now?"
Lin Wei Yu curled her lips, "Yes."
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining: Small Head-Mounted Optical Stealth Device, effective when worn on the head."
An object resembling a diamond-studded ring appeared in Lin Wei Yu's hand.
"Thanks, Little System, well done!"
Lin Wei Yu put the optical stealth device on her head and then quickly ran towards where the spaceship and the Star Pirates' assault boat were engaged in battle.
As soon as she got close, hiding behind a corner, Lin Wei Yu heard the Star Pirates shouting.
Soon, a Star Pirate pointed at the ejected escape pod and shouted.
"Someone escaped!"
"Boss, target spaceship has someone escaping from the escape pod."
"Launch tracking missile! Destroy the escape pod! My final payment can't fly away!"
The escort personnel heard the Star Pirates' shouts and immediately remembered Lin Wei Yu, who was still locked in her room.
Someone immediately opened their smart brain to check the spaceship's surveillance, discovering that Lin Wei Yu had escaped from her room and was running towards the escape pod, even destroying the surveillance cameras along the way.
"Not good, quickly stop this group of Star Pirates."
Lin Wei Yu took advantage of the chaos, using the magnetic locks attached to the spaceship to slip into the Star Pirates' assault boat.
Only a single Star Pirate grunt remained in the assault boat, complaining while holding a pulse rifle, "Boss made me stay behind alone again! I really want to go out and participate in the action too!"
"Hey." Lin Wei Yu patted the other person's shoulder, "How do I get to our spaceship's main control room?"
"Go straight, turn left, then turn right. Brother Liuzi, are you lost again? Hey, wait, something's wrong."
The grunt groggily pointed a direction, then suddenly felt something was off.
But before he could react, he suddenly felt a chill on his neck.
Lin Wei Yu used a disassembled data cable to make him a temporary tie and casually stuffed a ball of electrical tape into his mouth.
"Mmmph! Mmmph! Mmmph!"
"Quiet down," Lin Wei Yu deftly tied him up like a zongzi, then turned to the vent and shouted, "Beibei, time to go!"
The gecko-shaped little robot shot out of the pipe with a "whoosh" and landed on Lin Wei Yu's shoulder, its mechanical claws still clinging to a few torn fiber optic cables.
Beibei raised its head, flashing its green indicator light, proudly indicating that it had perfectly completed the task Lin Wei Yu had assigned.
Lin Wei Yu carried the Star Pirate grunt in one hand and hurried towards the main control room.
The passage was very smooth, and the door to the main control room was even wide open.
The Star Pirate grunt's eyes widened at this scene.
Didn't the main control room usually require biometric authentication to enter?!
Why was it wide open?!
What he didn't know was that the USB drive Lin Wei Yu gave to Beibei was filled with various old-era rogue software and computer viruses, which would greatly increase the spaceship software's operating load, causing the AI's computing power to overload, which is the common 【System busy, please try again later】.
