Viper Strikes, Part 2: A Profitable Payday
11 Dec 2020Sirius T. Dog
I boarded my Viper Mk4, powered on my primary systems, and got ready to launch. The engines fired up and I flew away from the pad, leaving Garay Terminal in my engine exhaust. I set my course for the Deciat nav beacon, charged my Frame-Shift Drive, and headed over. I quickly started finding ships with bounties. I switched my pips to my combat setting -- one on system, one on engine, and four on weapons -- and began emptying all that energy into the shields and hulls of those ships. The site was beautiful. Me and 3 other system authorities destroying these ships in just a few minutes.
I decided to head back to Garay after about 20 minutes. On my way back, I checked my total bounties. A whopping two million credits was sitting on my ship, waiting to be turned in! I spent about 5000 credits in restocking my fragment cannon and repairing some modules. I cashed in my bounties and watched my balance soar for the first time after many quiet days.
Hopefully my next hunting session is just as profitable!
