Everything was quiet.
At least, this must be what those thugs that were patrolling around that mining station were thinking right before a kinetic round fired from a railgun pierced through three ships and blew them up before anyone could even react.
The other gang ships scattered before a flight of Mercenary ships descended on them from out of nowhere, their guns firing at the enemy ships indiscriminately.
I had chosen to join them on my Verlandi instead of staying on board the Iridescence, the prime reason being that there were more enemy ships patrolling around the mining station than we thought.
We had stopped just outside normal radar range and initiated a long range scan just to see what we were dealing with.
Our scams thus showed that there were at least twenty A Class ships and six B Class ships while on our side, we only had three A Class ships, three B Class ships and one C Class ship.
