Super Island Tycoon
Chapter 1000 - 999: Old Island
Facing those bandits robbing the common people, Ba Lv issued a warning, forcing the bandits to quickly retreat to their spaceship. Within the time set by Ba Lv, the bandits prepared to leave, but clearly, Ba Lv had no intention of letting them go easily.
These bandits relied on the vastness of the universe. Every time they completed a heist, they would flee as far as possible, then casually hide on a planet to avoid the space police's search. Once the heat died down, they would emerge to commit crimes again.
With this endless cycle, their courage grew, and their methods became increasingly cruel. What started as simple robberies evolved into raids and murders, followed by the destruction of evidence. The severity of their crimes was extreme. However, the space police, even with good intentions, often arrived to find even the crime scene obliterated, and the bandits long gone.
Therefore, these bandits have the blood of many people on their hands, and killing them repeatedly wouldn't be too much.
So when Jiang Cheng saw Ba Lv activating all the attack weapons, entering a state of readiness, he said nothing.
In fact, he agreed with Ba Lv's actions.
People like bandits or smugglers are scum and killing them is no different than squashing a fly.
The bandits' two spaceships were initially flying leisurely, perhaps as their way of expressing an attitude? Only when the alert system on their spaceship showed that they were locked on by the gunboat's targeting system did they begin to panic.
Jiang Cheng and his group had no way of knowing what those bandits were like in their final moments, but just as their spaceship began to accelerate, laser beams fired from the two auxiliary cannons on the gunboat, hitting the bandits' spaceships with precision.
A flash of fire and thick smoke appeared, and the two spaceships exploded, falling toward the boundless universe.
"Yes!" Ba Lvluo inside the gunboat waved her fists continuously, expressing her extreme excitement.
She was genuinely excited!
In the past, she would never have done something like this, because she saw herself as a villain, similar to these bandits. How could she drive them away, let alone eliminate them?
But after a night of long talks with Xuran, she was moved by Xuran's beliefs.
As Xuran said, since there are bad people in the world, good people are needed to uphold justice, and they should be the ones to be those good people.
Ba Lv was overjoyed to be able to be a good person now.
Xuran patted her hand in encouragement.
At this moment, a voice came over the communicator inside their gunboat: "Thank you! We are an interstellar transport spaceship, I am the captain, on behalf of my crew and all passengers, thank you for your timely help."
For this sudden and overwhelmingly sincere gratitude, Yanran and Ba Lv were so excited that they turned beet red, and for a moment, they didn't know how to respond to the captain.
They turned to Jiang Cheng, looking at him for guidance.
Jiang Cheng scratched his head, being someone who does good deeds without seeking recognition, and when people repeatedly expressed gratitude, he didn't know how to respond either.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Cheng finally said a few words: "No need to thank us, it's what we should do."
Upon hearing their mentor come up with just this one sentence after thinking for so long, Yanran and Ba Lv rolled their eyes, each expressing a small complaint in their hearts.
However, the people inside the spaceship didn't mind the simple response. The interstellar transport spaceship expressed their gratitude once more and then flew away. Before departing, they said they would report this to the Delmar government, widely publicizing their timely assistance to prevent further bloodshed.
Jiang Cheng and Xuran didn't mind the captain's words, but Ba Lv was overjoyed. π§πβ―β―π€β―π£πβ΄πππ.ππ°π
Whenever she completed a task from childhood to adulthood, she would receive praise, but to prevent exposing her identity or perhaps to avoid encouraging her arrogance, the higher-ups of the Black Group always downplayed her exploits.
Today, it was the first time she encountered someone saying they would publicly commemorate their deeds, which delighted the little lady.
For the rest of the journey, Jiang Cheng and Yanran's ears were never peaceful.
Ba Lv kept talking, saying that she didn't like speaking much as a child, that she sympathized with those displaced after she grew up, that she tried to avoid being seen by children during missions. She spoke incessantly, and she even considered what color of dress she should wear and what tone to use when a TV reporter interviewed her about the incident.
Jiang Cheng and Yanran exchanged a wry smile, not knowing that the previously cold-hearted Ba Lvluo, who could be as fierce as a leopard, could be so talkative, like a mother hen who just laid an egg, clucking non-stop.
In the end, Jiang Cheng and Yanran couldn't bear her chatter anymore, so each stuffed their own ears with plugs and casually watched some show, avoiding having to listen to Ba Lv's rambling.
Fortunately, the journey to Delmar Planet wasn't too long, Jiang Cheng and Yanran didn't have to endure for long before their spaceship began landing.
As the largest planet in the Delmar system, its level of civilization was exceptionally high.
The streets were bustling with people from different planets, some with bodies quite distinct from those in Zhou Country, yet everyone was accustomed to it and didn't cast strange looks their way.
After getting off the spaceship and finding a place to stay, there was a small episode where Yanran was extremely shocked upon hearing the price of lodging quoted by the innkeeper.
Her small savings would barely cover the cost of one night's stay, and they didn't even have money for dinner that evening.
Seeing Yanran's shock, Ba Lv calmly handed her card to the innkeeper.
Jiang Cheng and his two female disciples drove the gunboat to Delmar Planet, planning to stay for a few days while seeking a way to travel to other star systems.
However, the cost of living here was very high, and after discovering the price for one night, they were shocked to find that the money on them was nearly depleted after paying for the accommodation.
Fortunately, there was Ba Lv, this clever girl, who, while destroying the Black Exhaust Group headquarters, also managed to take all the Black Exhaust Group's money with her.
For the Black Exhaust Group, a top-tier power in the Dark World, their funds were practically incalculable.
