Chapter 1724 A Grave Misunderstanding!

[We don't have time for that! The weapon will launch in five minutes at most, if not earlier than that. We need to run and evade the fire, not care about anything else, got it?]

[That will be...]

[Tough, I know, but we need to do it]

Hye knew it was hard to do that, but she had to pull everything she got to survive. Or else, she'd be strangled here, all alone.

Her value wasn't just limited to her impact right now. He planned to recruit her and make her his eyes and ears in the underground world, planning to make her as his envoy there.

He waited, and during his wait, he had to keep moving around, evading any incoming attacks and ships. He kept firing back, trying to clear the entire area around him from any enemy.

In less than two minutes, he spotted a spaceship coming like a bullet toward him. It kept evading the enemies around, not firing back. When he spotted it, his eyes shone with excitement.

"Let me lend you a hand then..." Hye looked at the incoming ship, looking like a little bird trying to find a way out from a deadly and ferocious storm.

He started to move towards it, opening fire from a far distance away toward the hostile ships surrounding it. [Hang tight there, I'm coming to reduce the pressure over you. Once you spotted a window, move through and I'll follow] he sent in the chat to her, while firing without aim, firing at anything in a wide range.

He knew he might hit her ship by accident, yet he didn't believe the fire rain he unleashed would reach the enemies at the front.

[What the hell are you talking about?!!] and just as when he got closer, he started to lock on the enemies, trying to clear a path for her ship to pass through.

[Wow! Forget about that, how come you are this good at flying that ship? Damn girl, never knew you were this great!]

[I'm asking you again, what the hell are you talking about?!!"

[About your flight with that ship, damn! What a crazy move you pulled out there!]

In front of Hye, that ship was making very dangerous turns at random times. Hye was already pulling such moves, but he needed to pause from time to time to rest. Unlike him, he spotted the nymph lady's ship moving in such a crazy way without a single moment of pause, as if she was the most experienced spaceship pilot out there!

[Dammit Hye! It's not me!] All of a sudden he read her message and couldn't help but momentarily freeze. He looked at the ship, and when he focused more, he could see the signal of the orange sun on its back.

"F*ck me! It's that pirate... Don't tell me it's him!!!" the moment he realised which side this ship belonged to, he guessed the identity of the one steering it. And in the next moment, he stopped all the fire, turned around sharply, and made a run towards that portal.

[It's that damn pirate king! Hurry your fat ass here right away, or else I'm leaving you behind!] he sent this message while fuming with rage. In the middle of his worry to see her here, he took that ship for granted to be hers.

If he knew it belonged to that pirate king, he'd have better destroyed it, and never moved to help him in any given way.

But it was too late to think about something like that. Hye moved his ship fast while asking the nymph lady about how long she'd need to come here.

[Two minutes, at most!]

[Girl! Are you playing with me here?] he couldn't believe what she sent, [three minutes ago you said you need two! And now you are asking for two?!!]

[I now know why you aren't that popular with girls, tsk! You need to learn how to be patient when speaking with a girl...]

[No time for that bullshit! Move your ass in one minute or I'm leaving!] He knew that the pirate king wouldn't come here alone. And just from the skills he showed in steering his spaceship, Hye knew he couldn't hold a candle to him, nor his elite fighters when they'd arrived here.

The moment the space pirate king spotted Hye's ship, he instantly recognised it. He saw it before when he came harassing his fleet, using the hands of the world's forces to take lots of his ships down.

"It's you, bastard..." The pirate king was enraged the moment he recognised Hye. He also spotted a ship running away from the place of the tycoons. And yet he was too busy to worry about his fleet, about his safety, rather than to link the dots back then.

Seeing Hye's ship in front of him made him feel lots of mixed emotions. He was angry, and he was intimidated as well. He saw what Hye did singlehanded with fleets of two mighty forces. And there was something that Hye wasn't aware of.

The space pirate king moved all the way here alone. On top of that, he knew about one more terrible news waiting for him after crossing that portal. nove/lb)In

Yet while he got distracted by seeing Hye, he spotted the latter move his ship quite fast, opening fire blindly, trying to help him escape.

"What does he want?!" The pirate king went sceptical about this and didn't know how he would react to Hyde's gesture. And when Hye persisted and cleared many ships for him, he was sure now that Hye was trying to help him to escape.

When Hye stopped attacking, turned around, and made a quick escape from this place, the pirate king mistook his intentions. "Is he trying to invite me to join him?" he went hesitant for a few seconds, before deciding to follow through.

"Screw it! I've lost too much anyway, what else can happen?" he muttered to himself while thinking about the bitter reality waiting for him on the other side of that portal.
