Chapter 31: Thorn Bird Raider Group
Under the dim star light at some corner of the Milky Way, there was a space station.
From the structure and design of the station, it should be an old model that was used as a hub. Any industrial space ships that passed this station could all park here to rest a bit. The crew members could partake in recreational activities like getting drunk at the bar, picking up some chicks and refilling fuel.
Now that the space station was abandoned, it was taken over by a group of raiders. On the sides of the space station were painted two giant bird symbols, showing that the present occupants of this place were the members of the Thorn Bird Raider Group.
In the Milky Way, there was a big difference between raiders and space pirates. Space pirates never land, they just intercepted transporting or commercial ships, while the raiders would go anywhere to rob as long as the loot was valuable.
Generally speaking, raiders were a much more violent group that was developed on the foundation of space pirates. They were much more powerful and cruel as well.
The four star esper, the strategist of Thorn Birds Di Fu walked past the mess at the lobby. The pirate all had three big hobbies: money, women, and alcohol, and Thorn Bird raiders were no exception. A group of captured girls were forced onto the floor by the drunk raiders, and made to play a game called drunken chicken.
This game was really simple and cruel. You forced the girls to drink, and when they were drunk on the floor, then the obvious will happen.
Di Fu slightly frowned, he didn’t like this kind of uncivilized game, but of course he wouldn’t stop his bros. If it wasn’t for the lawless environment and piles of cash, which esper would be willing to be a robber?
For the raiders, they could do whatever they wanted during their free times, as long as they give it their all on the battle field.
Di Fu walked past the lobby and arrived at Lucas’s, the boss, office. Lucas was a bit drunk already, and in his arms were two naked little girls. He wasn’t wearing any clothes either, showing off his terrifying scars and bronze colored muscles.
In this world there were two types of robbers, one were those criminals that had nowhere else to go so they could only join raider groups, like Di Fu. He was the most intelligent existence in the group, his shirt was always pure white with not even a speck of dust on it.
And then there was the second type that were natural born outlaws. They loved the chaos, insanity, and living their lives on the edge of knives. Like Lucas, who was born as an outlaw. Fresh blood and alcohol were his favourite past time.
“Oh my counsellor is here, what is it?” Lucas reluctantly pushed away those two beautiful girls, gestured them to get out and invited Di Fu to sit down in front of him.
Di Fu sat down and said in a deep voice, “Our client wants us to hurry up and execute the deal, the United Government of Earth is very likely going to finish discovering the C ranked Extinction Domain soon. If that happens, Earth might have enough income to form a stronger military, and by then our client’s plan of colonizing Earth will have a lot more obstacles.”
Lucas started to laugh out loud, stood up disapproving and yelled, “It’s easy, I will just go myself and kill and loot everything on that place called Earth.”
Di Fu shook his head, “Boss, Earth isn’t suited for large-scale war.”
“Why?” Lucas was a bit confused, “A lowly planet that just joined the Milky Way Alliance under 20 years ago, do we not have enough men to stomp it?”
