Chapter 236: Seize a Cosmic Warp Fighter Jet (2)

Was it because this area was once part of the Ancient Battlefield?
Hmm, he wasn’t sure.
He would check it out when he had the chance.
The Hurricane Pirates were reorganized on the spot.
The maintenance staff, led by Old Xie, were quite impressive.
Old Xie had been, after all, a first-class maintenance worker at Jiutian Heavy Industry Company. He quickly repaired Hurricane, and it was no different from before.
Following Yu Min’s request, Wang Ye’s cosmic warp fighter jet docked into Hurricane.
It still needed some time to be modified, especially the auxiliary computer that was in charge of the main control, which had to be reset. Wang Ye also needed to learn how to control it properly.
In the main control room of Hurricane.
“Please sit.” Yu Min was in a much better state after recovering from her injuries. Her red hair was scattered on her shoulders. She sat on a high chair with her strong long legs crossed, looking natural and unruly.
Wang Ye looked around and sat down. He was not used to this kind of VIP treatment.
“Thank you for saving us.” Yu Min’s beautiful eyes were bright as she looked at Wang Ye.
“You’ve already thanked me once.” Wang Ye said.
Yu Min shook her head. “I’m thanking you on behalf of my brothers. If you weren’t here, I’m afraid none of us would have been able to escape.”
“It’s nothing. No one owes anyone anything now,” Wang Ye said with a smile.
“What do you plan to do next?” Yu Min asked.
“The same as you.” Wang Ye said.
“Earn money?” Yu Min raised her eyebrows.
Wang Ye nodded. “Since we’re already here, there’s no reason for us to return empty-handed. I hope to make a fortune in the Ancient Battlefield before we leave.”
“You are really greedy.” Yu Min’s smile was very beautiful. She had the free and easy air of a female hero, but she did not lose her feminine charm. “The deeper we go, the more dangerous it might be. Aren’t you afraid?”
“If you’re not afraid, what should I be afraid of?” Wang Ye teased.
Yu Min glared at him. “I’ll be able to meet up with my 16th Brother then. It’s not a problem for me to protect myself. Think carefully.”
“Bring me along.” Wang Ye didn’t hesitate.
Yu Min pursed her red lips and shook her head. “The pirates have their rules. If I join Brother Sixteen’s starship, it won’t be up to me. Even if I want to help you, he won’t agree, unless…”
“Unless I become his brother-in-law?” Wang Ye laughed.
“What? Nonsense! 1 mean, unless you take over Asahiko’s position and become the head captain of the Hurricane Pirates.” Yu Min’s face blushed.
“Is that so? Then I’m not interested.” Wang Ye didn’t hesitate.
Although Yu Min already knew the answer, she still looked a little disappointed. She suddenly remembered what Wang Ye had just said and stole a glance. “If you really do need protection… 1 can agree to your request.” “Agree to what?” Wang Ye was stunned and then suddenly understood.
Were cosmic pirates so direct?
He had only saved her life, and she already wanted to devote herself to him?
“A fake marriage!” Yu Min said in a panic. “I mean the fake kind!”
“Thank you.” Wang Ye looked at her and smiled. “All good things must come to an end. We are meant to part ways. Even if we don’t part ways in the Milky Way, we will after leaving the Milky Way.”
“Yes.” Yu Min quickly regained her composure and looked at Wang Ye. “No matter what, you’re a friend of the Hurricane Pirates!”
“It’s a pleasure to have you as a friend.”
“Me too.”

Inside the cabin.
“How did it go?” Nante hurriedly asked.
“Nothing much. Yu Min wants to recruit me,” Wang Ye said.
“In her dreams!” Lingling was wearing a white dress and was barefooted. “My brother-in-law is powerful and a top student in the Military Strategy Department. What does she have to recruit him?! A mouth?”
Then, her expression changed.
She knew her brother-in-law too well. A man’s mouth was useless, but a woman’s mouth, especially a beautiful woman’s mouth… It was very useful! “Brother-in-law, don’t tell me you agreed?” Lingling wanted to read Wang Ye’s mind, but she was blocked by an invisible willpower. She couldn’t help but pout.
Damn it! Her brother-in-law was on guard against her now!
“No.” When Wang Ye saw Lingling’s expression, he knew she was thinking about something 18-rated again. “Joining the cosmic pirates is just a temporary measure. Even if 1 earn enough money to buy a cosmic citizenship, I won’t be able to earn any achievement points.”
Money, cosmic citizenship, and achievement points. To buy Blue Planet, all three were indispensable.
“At least you didn’t become an idiot from the beauty.” Lingling snorted lightly, her face filled with joy.
Wang Ye rolled his eyes at her. “It’s just that we’re already very far from the outer reaches of the Milky Way. Although there are many life planets ahead, no cosmic nations control them. We can’t sell Dark Energy-level equipment.” “Actually, there’s no hurry.” Nante wiped the spear in his hand seriously without looking up.
“You are the most anxious.” Lingling glanced at him and ridiculed him. “You keep saying that you want to go to the Martial Extreme Dojo to see the world of spears. You also want to go to Weiss Supreme Casino to gamble. Why are you still pretending to not be in a hurry at all?”
“Fortunately, he didn’t want to try out sex…” Wang Ye thought to himself.
Nante’s neck turned red. He retorted, “Don’t you want to? Who was the one who said that she wanted to go to the main virtual world to enjoy life? Who was the one who said that she wanted to challenge the Ability Tower of Babel?” “It’s me, it’s me. What’s wrong with that?!” Lingling stood on the bed with her hands on her hips. “At least I’m honest. I say what’s on my mind!”
Seeing the two bicker again, Wang Ye silently walked out and closed the door.
They would have to argue for a long time…
He headed towards the cosmic warp fighter jet.
The maintenance team led by Old Xie was still working on the modification.
When they saw Wang Ye, they greeted him with a smile.
His status in the Hurricane Pirates had changed.
“How’s the progress, Old Xie?” Wang Ye asked.
“In another three cosmic days, 1 should be able to finish modifying it. I haven’t modified a cosmic warp starship in a long time,” Old Xie chuckled. “I’m a little rusty.”
“Impressive.” Wang Ye praised.
This kind of top-notch spaceship could not be handled without a few skills.
Old Xie had even modified the access rights of the quantum computer so that there would not be any trouble.
This was very important.
Cosmic adventurers were usually lone wolves, but it would be bad if his brothers came to seek revenge.
“Right, there are a few things 1 need to remind you of,” Old Xie said.
“Tell me.” Wang Ye looked at him.
“There’s no problem with the structure of this cosmic warp fighter jet,” Old Xie said seriously with a spanner in hand. “But the material is relatively ordinary, so it can’t take much pressure. Try not to enter cosmic wormholes.”
“Alright.” Wang Ye nodded.
Cosmic wormholes usually allowed one to travel further distances and were thus more destructive to starships than natural wormholes.
“In addition, its limit is about a natural wormhole of 5000 to 8000 light years. If the distance is too long, it may easily enter a spatial rift,” Old Xie said. “If you have the money, 1 suggest you get a new starship.”
“Old Xie, you must be joking.” Wang Ye couldn’t help laughing.
10000 cosmic dollars for a cosmic warp starship, should he get one with his head?
Old Xie smiled. “Of course, its advantages are also very obvious. Although it’s small, it has all the necessary components. It consumes less energy and can maintain light speed for a long time. Its thermal weapons are also very powerful. Its radar detection is also on par with a standard cosmic warp starship.”
It was very suitable for cosmic adventurers since it was perfect for hunting pirates.
“What if it gets damaged later?” Wang Ye asked.
“The A.I. will teach you how to repair it.” Old Xie smiled.
Heh.
Did he want it to teach him? It can’t really think that it could, right? What was the use of an A. I. that didn’t know how to repair a fighter jet?
After chatting with Old Xie for a while, he gained some knowledge about the cosmic warp fighter jet and the use of its internal structure.
The harvest was great.
After the modification was completed, he still had to learn how to control it manually.
By the time Wang Ye returned to the cabin, the pair of clowns had already returned to their respective rooms after quarreling.
He was preparing to start cultivating in silence when suddenly, an inexplicable throbbing spread throughout his body. Something seemed to be calling him. Swoosh! He stood up and was stunned for a moment.
Then, he suddenly thought of something and took it out of his storage space.
The ancient battlefield weapon fragment was vibrating lightly!
As the fragment shook, the mystical engravings above it were faintly discernible, releasing energy.
Wang Ye’s eyes lit up.
What was going on?
Had the weapon found its owner or did it find other missing fragments?
