Chapter 249        Self-destructive Drones

For the following two days, Polarlys ran into the old Kony class frigate three times. If it were not for the strong engine on Polarlys, the radar, and the drones which covered large areas, they might have already been assaulted.

Lena Fox listed for more information, “According to our database, these 383 Moncada frigates belonged to the Cuba Marine. They haven't been used for quite a while. I wonder who got them out.”

Who got them out? Soon, they will know the answer.

After two days of chasing, the people on that old frigate realized something special about Polarlys. They have done their research on Polarlys and the result was shocking. Polarlys was a nuclear-powered ship, it would never run out of fuel!

Thus, they sent a helicopter to Polarlys and called it with the public channel. It landed on Polarlys’ deck after receiving permission.

A dwarf came out of the helicopter. He looked at Zhou Qingfeng and his mates around him, and laughed, “Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Bahamas! Your ship seems really great, it’s the only ship that could compare to our ‘Great General’.”

“‘Great General’? Do you mean that old and rusty Kony class frigate?” Butcher said sarcastically. “I’m pretty sure that thing is gonna fall apart in like, a few days.”

“Your ship is advanced and huge, but you couldn’t get rid of our so-called ‘old and rusty Great General’,” the dwarf laughed out loud. “I know where you came from and I know where you’re heading to. But, if you wanna get through to the Bahamas, you’d have to pay taxes to the great General Santos. I’ve noticed that you have two ships, just one of them will do.”

“That sounds really reasonable.” Zhou Qingfeng asked coldly, “So, are you guys just staying here and stopping the people who come to Bahamas?”

“No, no…, we’re not stopping people. We’re just collecting some reasonable taxes.” The dwarf swung his head and said, “Don’t you try to find another way, our patrol boats are all over this area. The frigate isn’t the only thing we have.”

“You’re no different from the pirates!” Lena Fox said angrily.

“I don’t care what you say about us, if you think we are pirates, then the entire Caribbean is covered with pirates. Also, if you’re willing to pay with one of your ships, we’ll make sure you’re safe during the journey with our Great General. Otherwise…..”

The dwarf was trying to convince Zhou Qingfeng and obviously, Zhou Qingfeng was not going to buy any of it. He grinned and said, “Do you think we can’t do anything with it?”

“Oh…, did I say that?” The dwarf made a funny face and laughed, “You’re absolutely right, that’s what I meant. How do you fight against a warship with a cargo ship and an expedition ship? You have to yield in front of the great General Santos. There’s no other way.”

It was an unpleasant meeting; the dwarf left with the helicopter. He shouted at them before leaving, “This is your only chance to solve everything peacefully. I’ll see all of you at the prisoner camp next time.”

After the dwarf left, Zhou Qingfeng gave commands to the captain, Allen Derrick, with a wireless radio, “Track them with the radar and drones, I wanna see where their base is.”

After around thirty minutes, Derrick reported back, “That helicopter went in the direction of Nassau and we have a situation there. There are three high-speed boats showing on the radar coming towards us. One of them is traveling at an extremely high speed, more than forty-five knots. It looks like a missile boat or something.”

It would be a big problem for Polarlys if it really was a missile boat; Polarlys would not be able to escape. Zhou Qingfeng immediately commanded them to avoid it and said, “Send those self-destructive drones. We have no choice but to fight.”

Zhou Qingfeng got tons of good stuff from the logistic center of Skull and Bones. There were more than hundreds of drones. There were not a lot of high-performance military drones but there was a huge amount of normal delivery drones.

Once Zhou Qingfeng gave out the commands, the launching slides were set up. A few normal-looking drones were taken out of the storages. They used to be very convenient and useful transportation tools but now they were being transformed into tools for war.

Meanwhile, the dwarf on the helicopter was on his way back to Nassau. When he saw that there was an obvious wave on the sea, he realized it was their missile boat, “Hahaha…, tough luck for them! They can’t escape it.”

The dwarf shouted to the pilot, “Turn around! Let’s see how they’re going to deal with the missile. I can’t wait to see their hopeless faces. Unfortunately, no one could control those missiles, otherwise, we can get rid of them easily.”

The helicopter turned and quickly caught up to the missile boat. It was a missile boat named ‘Bumble Bee 2’. Even though it was old, it could be a huge threat to a normal ship.

“Quick, quick, quick! We have some old stuff but they are good,” the dwarf shouted and yelled at the helicopter. In the air, he could even see Polarlys from afar.

At that instant, three drones appeared and came closer to the missile boat very quickly. Meanwhile, the driver of the missile boat was focused on the great Polarlys that appeared on their radar. The 30mm installer cannon on the missile boat was ready to launch.

“Oh, no!” The dwarf on the helicopter immediately realized the destructive drones. He tried to connect to the people on the missile boat with wireless radios but their channels could not be connected to. Without a choice, he took the risk. He asked the pilot to lower the helicopter and waved at the missile boat. He was hoping that the people on the boat would realize something.

In the cabin of the boat, the people soon realized the helicopter and the dwarf waving at them. As soon as they were notified by the dwarf, they saw the three drones coming towards them. Obviously, the drones were not coming for good reason.

“Get ‘em down!”

“Turn, turn, turn the cannon!”

“Damn it, stop those drones.”

The missile boat started to travel to the left and right repeatedly. At the same time, the cannon that was supposed to aim at Polarlys changed its direction. One of the cabin crews holding a rifle started shooting into the sky.

In the midst of the gunshots, one of the drones was hit and immediately fell into the sea. Following that, an explosion ignited and set off a huge wave.

Twenty kilograms of bombs were actually very powerful. The explosion in the water caused a huge wave and it hit the missile boat. The boat hit by the wave started to shake. A few from the cabin crew who were shooting at the drones fell into the sea.

In the meantime, the other two drones did not stop. They lowered and came from both sides of the boat. The moment the dwarf on the helicopter saw the destruction of the missile boat, he was completely astonished.
