Chapter 382 Unexpected Surprise (Five-in-One)
by SunflowerSu Ming quickly locked onto a relatively flat area with no Wormhole Spacetime around it, then sent the coordinates to Su Yuan and the others.
“Descend to the coordinates!”
“Understood!”
Su Yuan and the others immediately adjusted their flight direction and descended towards the coordinates.
As the altitude continuously decreased, the view gradually became clearer.
At this moment, Zhou Mu suddenly shouted in surprise in the communication channel.
“Look at the ground, green plants!”
Upon hearing Zhou Mu’s words, Su Ming and the others all activated their optical imaging devices and zoomed in on the ground image.
On the red earth, they could see clusters of withered red vine-Li Ke vegetation.
“Not bad. Although it doesn’t look Li Ke good vegetation, at least there’s life.”
Su Ming replied with a touch of emotion.
“Indeed.”
Su Yuan and the others agreed.
Soon, Su Ming and the others, holding the small survey capsule, descended to just above the ground.
They carefully placed the small survey capsule on the ground, then released their grip and gently landed their Mecha on the ground.
Then, Su Ming issued an order in the communication channel.
“Spread out and be vigilant!”
“Understood!”
Su Yuan and the others maneuvered their Mecha to spread out.
At this moment, the small survey capsule opened, and David and a few others, controlling their Iron Head and carrying survey equipment, walked out.
They surveyed the surrounding geology, then unloaded the survey equipment from Iron Head’s back, unfolded it into a tripod shape, hammered it into the ground, and began their survey work.
Everything flowed seamlessly.
Several hours later.
David finished the first round of detection, and he reported to Su Ming and the others.
“Officer, this location didn’t detect anything. We need to change places to detect.”
“Okay, you choose the location, and we’ll escort you!”
Su Ming said very patiently.
“Let’s go over there. When we landed, there was a large fault line over there.”
David pondered for a long time before finally speaking.
“No problem, let’s go!”
Su Ming and his five companions escorted David and his team towards the new work site.
Not long after, they descended into an area with geological fault lines, where protruding rock walls were everywhere.
David surveyed the surroundings and quickly pinpointed a spot for new operations.
Su Ming and the others watched patiently.
Time passed bit by bit.
In the communication channel.
Su Yuan also yawned and complained boredly.
“Sigh~ Ever since I came to the front line, I feel Li Ke I’m dreaming. First, I was chased and killed by pirates, then I was punished to clean toilets during my advanced studies, and now I’m here to mine! We are five Major Generals, yet we’re doing this kind of work. It would really make people laugh their heads off if word got out.”
“Alright, we’re still in our internship period. Only by doing things ourselves will we gain experience and know how to lead others in the future.”
Su Ming, holding the little grey, replied calmly.
“Okay, okay, okay, you’re right.”
Su Yuan directly put his foot on the console, lay back in the operating chair, and replied carelessly.
Just then, a black shelled insect, over two meters tall, pushed a large collection sphere of excrement and bumped into the right foot of the Fourth Generation Mecha · Dark Tooth.
Immediately, an induction screen popped up in Su Yuan’s field of vision.
“Damn it, you’re looking for death.”
Su Yuan instantly became furious and maneuvered the Mecha to lift its foot and stomp the insect to death.
Su Ming saw it and immediately stopped him, saying,
“Su Yuan, don’t stir up trouble.”
Upon hearing Su Ming’s words, Su Yuan angrily kicked the excrement sphere.
As a result, the excrement sphere directly stuck to it.
“Damn it, my Mecha!”
Su Yuan’s face instantly turned green.
Su Ming and the others couldn’t help but laugh at this scene, and the boring wait was also filled with a little fun.
At this moment, David’s extremely excited voice suddenly sounded in the communication channel.
“Officer, it’s been explored!”
Su Ming and the others were startled and immediately asked,
“What kind of ore was explored?”
“We detected Vibranium components, and the content is not low.”
David said, overjoyed.
“Haha, we actually found Level 4 ore! This stuff is the main material for making Fourth Generation Mecha!”
Su Yuan almost jumped up when he heard David’s words.
“Great, we’re rich!”
Zhou Mu and the others were also extremely excited.
At this moment, Su Ming rationally reminded them.
“Don’t be so happy. This giant planet is infested with countless insects, and there might even be high-level Zerg creatures.”
“Su Ming, you don’t understand, Level 4 Vibranium ore! Its value is enough for the Federation to dispatch a Star Destroyer and troops to wipe out this place.”
Su Yuan explained to Su Ming.
David also agreed wholeheartedly, saying,
“Officer Su Yuan is right, the value is enough!”
“But aren’t we supposed to give these coordinates to the Shabask Kingdom to win the competition?”
Su Ming said thoughtfully.
“I almost forgot about that, but it doesn’t matter. When we give it to them, we can negotiate terms with them for joint development. We can’t just give it to them for free.”
Zhou Mu was also stunned for a moment, then spoke.
“Makes sense.”
Su Ming then nodded in agreement.
At this moment, David said to Su Ming and the others,
“Sirs, the Vibranium content here is very high. I suspect this planet has Titanium-Chromium ore components. Let’s choose a few more places to survey.”
Upon hearing David’s words, Su Ming and the others’ eyelids twitched wildly, and they replied without hesitation.
“Alright, find it immediately!”
They couldn’t imagine what would happen if Level 5 ore components were detected here.
Although they said they wanted to find Eternal Metal before, they didn’t really take it seriously; they just used it as a slogan.
“Then, officers, please fly into the air, photograph the nearby terrain, and transmit it to us for analysis.”
David said to Su Ming and the others.
“Alright, Su Yuan, you protect them. I’ll go search and photograph.”
Su Ming said to Su Yuan and the others.
“Okay!”
Su Yuan and the others immediately responded.
Su Ming maneuvered the Slaughter Blade, leaped into the air, and flew into the distance.
He opened the optical imaging device and photographed the land along the way.
The terrain of this giant planet was extremely complex, with huge craters, rift valleys, fault lines, and more appearing before his eyes.
Besides that, there were countless caves.
These caves varied in size, and the largest one seen so far had a diameter of over a thousand meters.
At this moment, Su Ming saw an area with blackened geology in the central region of some scattered caves.
His expression shifted slightly as he adjusted the optical imaging device, zoomed in the lens for detailed photography, and transmitted the images back.
Not long after, David’s excited voice sounded in the communication channel.
“Officer, what are the coordinates of that blackened geological area you photographed? We’ll head there right away!”
“I’ll send them to you.”
Su Ming replied rationally.
“Okay!”
David immediately responded.
Over an hour later.
Su Ming and the others stood at the new survey point, wary of their surroundings.
There were quite a few insects active in this area, but fortunately, most of them were low-level insects with little intelligence.
However, as long as they didn’t cause trouble, Su Ming and the others ignored them completely.
Unless it was absolutely necessary, they would not actively kill the insects here.
Even though low-level insects had little intelligence, they were gregarious creatures. Killing one might attract a swarm, and it could even cause a chain reaction Li Ke an avalanche.
At this moment, David and the others had already set up their equipment and were conducting the survey.
Su Yuan and the others, while on alert, watched David and his team prospecting, their expressions tense, their hearts in their throats.
They wanted to ask David and his team how the survey was going, but they were afraid of disturbing them.
At this moment, David and the others were even more nervous than Su Ming and his team, because this was the best mineral survey they had ever encountered in their lives.
Soon, the first batch of soil samples was excavated.
They immediately controlled Iron Head to test the content of the soil samples.
On the screen in the control room, various data kept popping up, and they continuously analyzed it.
As time passed, Su Ming and the others’ nerves were stretched to the limit.
At this moment, David suddenly controlled the Iron Head mech to jump up, directly knocking the survey equipment askew.
“What happened?”
Su Ming and the others asked in surprise.
David shouted in a trembling voice,
“Officer, officer! Detected Level 5 Titanium-Chromium ore components! We really found Level 5 ore!”
Upon hearing David’s words, Su Ming and the others looked at each other, momentarily at a loss for words.
After more than ten seconds, Su Ming took a deep breath and asked,
“What’s the content?”
“The content is unclear; the equipment we brought isn’t advanced enough. However, I suspect this giant planet might not only produce Titanium-Chromium ore, but also other Level 5 ore components. And it’s possible there’s even Eternal Metal. I strongly request that we deploy large-scale detection equipment for deep-level mineral surveying.”
David said, extremely excited.
Su Yuan hesitated upon hearing this, then said,
“Su Ming, what do we do now? Level 5 ore has appeared. Should we still give these coordinates to the Shabask Kingdom?”
“This matter is a bit troublesome, the profit is too great.”
Su Ming said in a deep voice.
“Then what do we do now? We don’t have a high-ranking general among us.”
Zhou Mu and the others said, finding it difficult.
Su Ming pondered for several seconds, then said to everyone,
“This matter is beyond our scope of handling. I will now contact Irelia and Dr. Blackes and inform them of the situation.”
“That’s the only way.”
Su Yuan and the others agreed.
Su Ming also didn’t hesitate for a moment, immediately maximized the signal of his communication device, and sent a communication request to the Light Shuttle.
In the central control room of the Light Shuttle.
Irelia sat quietly in the command chair.
Dr. Blackes stood beside her, looking at the projected image of the Wormhole Spacetime with an expressionless face, saying,
“We don’t have much time left.”
“I know.”
Irelia replied calmly.
Just then, a prompt popped up on the operation screen. Lan Ning saw it and immediately reported,
“Lady Irelia, we have received a communication request from General Su Ming.”
“Connect.”
Irelia looked up and replied.
“Yes!”
Lan Ning immediately operated.
Soon, the communication was successfully established.
“Junior Su Ming, what happened?”
Irelia asked immediately.
“Nothing bad happened, it’s a good thing, but it’s too good.”
Su Ming said, finding it a bit tricky.
“Tell me about it.”
Irelia asked, somewhat surprised.
“We conducted a rough survey of the giant planet and detected components of Vibranium and Titanium-Chromium ore, and it’s not ruled out that Eternal Metal components exist. This is a super rich resource planet!”
Su Ming said to Irelia.
Lan Ning and the others were all stunned when they heard this.
Irelia’s purple eyes fluctuated continuously, and even Dr. Blackes’s brows furrowed slightly.
Su Ming then asked,
“What do we do now? Do we really have to give the coordinates and samples of this planet to the Shabask Kingdom?”
“We cannot give it to them. These high-level resources are very scarce for the Federation, and even the Xiguang Laboratory receives a limited quota each year.”
Dr. Blackes said coldly.
“Then what about the Haunted Star event?”
Su Ming said, finding it a bit tricky.
At this moment, Irelia spoke rationally.
“If what you say is true, this giant planet could be the largest resource planet the Federation has found in nearly a hundred years. It’s impossible to give it to the Shabask Kingdom. Of course, the Haunted Star event cannot be abandoned either; these are all for the benefit of the Federation.”
“Senior Sister, do you have any good suggestions?”
“It’s very simple. Talk to the person you’re supporting, clearly tell him that this giant planet belongs to the Federation and cannot be mined! We are only using the coordinates and samples to help him ascend to power.”
“Good idea! And Senior Sister, David and his team want to conduct further surveys to determine what rare mineral elements are contained in the geology here, and they need the support of large-scale survey equipment.”
Su Ming replied in full agreement.
“I understand. I will deploy large-scale survey equipment and also send personnel down to assist you!”
Irelia said to Su Ming.
“Okay, then I will send you the coordinates.”
After Su Ming finished speaking, he cut off the communication.
Irelia raised her head and gave orders to Lan Ning and the others.
“Prepare to launch the MSC-03 Type Survey Equipment · Spear of the Earth.”
“Yes, preparing!”
“Notify General Tigerdo, Lin Chuyu, An Ruoxue, Wu Li, and Wake to activate their biological mechs and escort the launched equipment.”
“Understood!”
In the starry sky.
The Level 5 Battleship- Light Shuttle’s boarding hatch opened.
Biological mechs Li Ke Slaughter Blade and red scale swiftly charged out.
Mechanical Octopuses flew over, coiling around the bodies of these biological mechs.
Immediately after, a giant launch port opened at the bottom of the Light Shuttle, revealing a giant spear-shaped metal device.
Bang!
The Spear of the Earth was launched instantly, and swarms of Mechanical Octopuses rushed to entangle themselves on its surface.
Lin Chuyu and the others quickly maneuvered their biological mechs to follow.
Inside the giant planet.
Su Ming and the others looked up at the red sky, waiting for support to arrive.
Soon, their scanning devices popped up with green dots.
“They’re here!”
Su Yuan said excitedly.
At this moment, the thick clouds in the sky were broken open.
A giant mechanical spear went straight towards the ground.
As it neared the ground, the giant mechanical spear immediately activated its anti-gravity device, and at the same time, its head opened a circle of nozzles, spraying in reverse to decelerate.
At this time, Lin Chuyu and the others also followed the MSC-03 Type Survey Equipment · Spear of the Earth, decelerating and guarding it from all sides.
Thud~
The MSC-03 Type Survey Equipment · Spear of the Earth slowly landed on the solid ground, then its surface cracked open, extending giant mechanical claws that dug into the surrounding ground.
The entire device resembled an enormous Mechanical Octopus.
Immediately after, the central area cracked open, extending a sharp spiral drill bit.
“Wow, the latest MSC-03 Type Survey Equipment · Spear of the Earth! This thing can detect very deep underground.”
Su Yuan said in surprise.
“Looks pretty good.”
Su Ming said with satisfaction.
At this moment, Lin Chuyu and the others maneuvered their biological mechs to land beside Su Ming and the others.
“Su Ming, we’re here!”
An Ruoxue greeted Su Ming cheerfully.
“Mm. You worked hard.”
Su Ming replied with a smile.
At this moment, Tigerdo asked, yawning.
“What did you detect that made you launch this big guy down? Don’t tell me we’re going to lose money.”
“Level 5 Titanium Ore.”
Su Ming said with a smile.
Tigerdo and Lin Chuyu were stunned when they heard Su Ming’s words, then spoke in shock.
“Level 5 ore?”
“Don’t be so excited, there might be even higher-grade ones.”
Su Ming replied with a smile.
“Could it really be Eternal Metal?”
Lin Chuyu asked in surprise.
“There’s a high probability.”
Su Ming nodded in response.
“Damn, can your pet really find Eternal Metal?”
Tigerdo said excitedly after hearing this.
Zhou Mu and the others also reacted when they heard Tigerdo’s words, asking one after another.
“Su Ming, your pet—”
“No discussion!”
Su Ming quickly replied.
The more he looked at Little Gray, the more he liked it. He originally thought this guy was just a useless pet that could only act cute, but he didn’t expect its talent to be so powerful.
“Oh, what a pity. I wish I could have a Boat Spirit Li Ke that.”
“Yeah, Su Ming, where did you adopt this one?”
“Let’s go try our luck too.”
Zhou Mu and the others asked enviously.
“You’d better not ask about this; there definitely aren’t any more.”
Su Ming replied with a smile.
“Sigh, what a shame.”
Everyone sighed.
“Alright, let’s not talk about that. When this large equipment operates, it makes a lot of noise, which can easily attract Zerg. From now on, our five pure mechanical mechs will be divided into two groups for rotating shifts. As for you, Chu Yu, put all your biological mechs into standby mode. If you keep them on for too long, your bodies definitely won’t be able to handle it.”
Su Ming arranged simply.
“Okay!”
Everyone responded.
Late at night.
Darkness enveloped the rugged surface, and strong winds constantly raged, stirring up gusts of sand.
Amidst the sharp whistling wind, various insect chirps were interspersed.
At this moment, the drill bit of the MSC-03 Type Survey Equipment · Spear of the Earth continued to drill underground.
Zhou Mu and the others controlled their mechs, standing in different directions, on alert.
Inside the Slaughter Blade cockpit.
Su Ming was half-reclined in the pilot’s seat, sleeping soundly with his eyes closed.
Little Gray was lying on Su Ming’s leg, its head twisting back and forth.
At this moment, Little Gray seemed to sense something and instinctively stood up from Su Ming’s leg.
It blinked its eyes and looked into the distance through the observation screen.
Instantly, Little Gray’s pupils contracted. In its world of vision, the distant scenery rapidly swept past, and then a huge Zerg lair entrance emerged.
A large number of red light spots continuously floated out from the Zerg lair entrance.
Little Gray immediately acted as if it had taken a stimulant, suddenly darting onto Su Ming’s upper body, extending its small claws and frantically grabbing Su Ming’s hair.
Su Ming, who was sound asleep, suddenly woke up and sat up straight.
He immediately looked at the scanning area on the virtual screen, but he didn’t see any red dots.
“There’s no enemy attack?”
Su Ming looked at Little Gray in surprise and asked.
Under normal circumstances, if there really was an attack, Zhou Mu and the others on duty would have issued a warning.
However, Little Gray kept pulling at Su Ming and squeaking incessantly.
Su Ming frowned, clearly feeling that something was wrong.
Little Gray flapped its wings, flew to the observation screen, and kept pointing with its claws.
Su Ming followed the direction Little Gray was pointing, activated the night vision function, and looked into the distance, but there was nothing but barren land.
“I don’t see anything?”
Su Ming asked in confusion.
As a result, when Little Gray heard this, it became even more anxious, raising its small paws and pointing continuously.
Su Ming tried to ask.
“You want me to go over there?”
Little Gray nodded excitedly.
Su Ming’s expression changed for a moment, then he opened the communication channel and spoke.
“Zhou Mu.”
“What’s wrong, Su Ming? It’s not your shift yet.”
Zhou Mu said, a little surprised.
“I’m going out to explore for a bit, I’ll be back soon.”
Su Ming said to Zhou Mu.
“Okay, be careful!”
Although Zhou Mu was a little surprised, he didn’t ask too many questions.
Su Ming then maneuvered Slaughter Blade, flying at a low altitude in the direction Little Gray pointed.
He kept moving away from the survey area, but still saw nothing.
However, Su Ming patiently continued to fly forward.
A few minutes later, a large Zerg lair came into view.
Little Gray became increasingly excited looking at the Zerg lair, continuously pointing with its little paws.
Su Ming looked at the Zerg lair and asked in confusion.
“What’s wrong with that Zerg lair? I don’t see anything special?”
Little Gray also kept squeaking at Su Ming, its small claws gesturing something he couldn’t understand.
Su Ming frowned slightly and maneuvered his mech to fly over. Although there was the camouflage of the Mechanical Octopus, this camouflage was not effective against all Zerg, and rashly entering the Zerg lair was also a very dangerous act.
Soon, Su Ming maneuvered his mech to the entrance of the Zerg lair and looked down inside.
The interior of the Zerg lair was pitch black, bottomless, Li Ke a man-eating beast.
However, Su Ming still followed Little Gray, maneuvering his mech to fly down little by little.
Finally, he landed in a winding, sloping passage.
The entire passage’s rock walls were covered in viscous secretions, and numerous small crawling insects were scattered on the ground.
Su Ming maneuvered the Slaughter Blade mech cautiously as he flew in, and soon he arrived at a fork.
Two branch passages extended in different directions.
Su Ming stopped and turned to observe both passages; there was absolutely no difference.
At this moment, Little Gray excitedly pointed to the left. In its eyes, red light spots continuously floated out of the left passage. But when Su Ming turned to look, he saw nothing.
Su Ming took a deep breath and maneuvered Slaughter Blade to fly into the left passage.
As Slaughter Blade continued to delve deeper, the passage became narrower and narrower, and forks kept appearing.
Little Gray seemed to be pointing randomly, continuously guiding Su Ming deeper inside.
The further Su Ming flew, the more uncertain he felt. Red dots continuously appeared on the scanning device screen.
“Warning: Type III Elite-grade · Gray Sprout Flyer detected.”
“Warning: Type IV Elite-grade · Black-Striped Worm detected.”
Su Ming’s nerves were tightly strung. Although he didn’t know where he was, he was very clear that he was deep inside a Zerg nest.
If he made any noise and startled the Zerg inside, he would definitely be torn apart alive.
However, Little Gray wasn’t scared at all; instead, it became even more excited, continuously directing Su Ming to go deeper.
At this moment, Su Ming listened to Little Gray’s words and turned right, immediately entering a giant passage over five hundred meters high and a thousand meters wide.
Su Ming’s eyelids twitched. In such a wide passage, there must be super-large Zerg inhabiting it, possibly even Type V.
He couldn’t help but swallow, his focus becoming even more intense.
However, Su Ming also grew more curious about where Little Gray was leading him.
With a feeling of unease, he continued to fly deeper.
Soon, a huge cave entrance appeared before him. Little Gray squeaked excitedly, its small paws pointing continuously.
Su Ming took a deep breath and, bracing himself, flew inside.
The moment Su Ming entered, the surrounding scene suddenly opened up, and he found himself in a bottomless lair with an area of several hundred square kilometers.
Su Ming drew two Plasma Lightsabers, but did not activate them to avoid startling any monsters.
He maneuvered Slaughter Blade to descend little by little.
As Slaughter Blade neared the middle, Su Ming suddenly noticed a faint green light flickering in the darkness. His heart immediately leaped, and he quickly opened the scanning device, scanning the entire area.
The optical image was immediately displayed in full detail.
Su Ming was instantly completely shocked by the scene before him.
—
Survey Area.
Inside the Dark Fang Mech cockpit.
Su Yuan’s wristband buzzed, and his alarm went off.
“I’m so sleepy, Su Ming, are you up yet?”
Su Yuan opened his eyes, stretched lazily, and spoke on the private communication channel.
But there was no response for a long time.
Su Yuan was slightly startled, maneuvered his mech to look around, but didn’t see Su Ming, and muttered to himself in confusion.
“Strange, where is he?”
He then switched the communication to the public communication channel.
“Have you seen Su Ming? Why is he gone?”
“Su Ming said he was going out for a bit, but he hasn’t come back after a long time. Could something be wrong?”
Zhou Mu asked with some concern.
“No need to worry about that. He can even take down a pseudo-V Generation Mecha. Even if he encounters danger, if he can’t win, won’t he run?”
Su Yuan had a lot of confidence in Su Ming.
“That’s true.”
Zhou Mu thought for a moment and replied.
“But since this guy ran off to play, I’ll have to be on duty alone. So boring, so lonely, I miss girls so much.”
Su Yuan complained with a helpless expression.
“You can’t be on duty alone. I’ll be on duty with you. I’ll rest when Su Ming comes back.”
Zhou Mu said, feeling a bit uneasy.
“Alright.”
Su Yuan didn’t act arrogant and readily agreed.
At this moment, in the distant night sky, six pairs of crimson eyes slowly opened, staring intently at the survey area, and a huge figure moved towards it.
—
Wormhole Spacetime · Central Region.
In a starry sky filled with debris.
The Level 5 Battleship – Yan Tooth was traveling at high speed.
Inside the central control room, General Gabres and General Sigrid sat side by side on chairs.
General Tai Tate, General Sadani, and a group of other generals stood behind them with grim expressions.
General Sigrid looked at the operation screen, tapping his finger lightly on the armrest, and said with some confusion.
“That’s strange, we’ve been wandering around for so long, and we haven’t even seen a ghost. Where did these guys go?”
“That shouldn’t be right! I’m very familiar with this area. I know exactly which parts are developed and which are not. Logically speaking, I should be able to catch a fish easily. Could it be that those guys are hiding from us?”
General Gabres replied with a deep frown.
“That possibility exists.”
General Sigrid replied calmly.
At this moment, the scanning device suddenly blared a piercing alarm, followed by a red dot appearing.
A man in a major’s uniform, with a round face and a somewhat short stature, shouted excitedly.
“General, we’ve scanned a Dark Star Empire Level 5 Battleship – Dark Star!”
General Gabres immediately stood up from his chair and said excitedly.
“Haha, we finally caught a big fish! Let’s go slaughter Vice Commander Akteon and send a big gift package to the Dark Star Empire!”
At this moment, General Sigrid stood up and smiled at Gabres, saying.
“Don’t be so hasty. If we rush out Li Ke this, we’ll scare Akteon away. If he turns and runs, he won’t be so easy to catch!”
“Then what do you mean?”
“What I mean is that you shouldn’t go out yet. Let me take my men to meet him first. You wait for the right moment, destroy their Level 5 Battleship, cut off their retreat, and then you can come over and we’ll besiege Akteon together.”
“Haha, good idea!”
Gabres burst into laughter.
“But there’s one thing I want to say upfront: you can’t snatch this kill from me! I’m short one red sun, so you have to let me have it.”
Sigrid cautioned him, still feeling uneasy.
“No, who would ever complain about having too many suns? I want this one too.”
Gabres immediately shook his head and replied.
“We have such a good relationship, can’t you let me have this one?”
“One thing at a time.”
“Alright then, let’s each rely on our own abilities! Major Li Ke, approach Dark Star at top speed and launch an attack!”
Sigrid didn’t dwell on it too much and directly issued the combat order to the Operator.
“Yes, sir!”
Major Li Ke immediately responded.
In the starry sky.
A Level 5 Battleship – Dark Star, 45 kilometers long, with a conical hull covered in smooth black armor, the Dark Star Empire emblem painted on its bow, and rows of hidden launch ports and interceptor cannons densely packed on both sides of its hull, was moving at high speed.
Currently, inside the Central Control Room.
Prince Theodore sat calmly in his chair, with Akteon standing beside him.
“This Third Prince is really good at hiding. We still haven’t found him.”
Akteon also said to Prince Theodore with some irritation.
“That Third Prince is a cunning fox; he’s not that easy to kill. The reason we didn’t choose to support him back then was precisely because he’s difficult to control.”
Prince Theodore replied indifferently.
At this moment, a piercing alarm suddenly sounded.
Prince Theodore and Akteon were startled and looked at the operating subordinate, asking.
“What happened?”
“Bad news, Your Highness! We’ve scanned the Federation’s Level 5 Battleship – Yan Tooth.”
The Operator immediately reported.
Upon hearing this, Prince Theodore’s brow furrowed instantly.
“To run into the Federation at this critical juncture, avoid them!”
“Yes, sir!”
The Operator immediately turned the bow of the ship and flew in another direction.
As a result, Yan Tooth also turned its direction.
“Oh no, the enemy has also changed direction and is catching up.”
“Damn it, quick, accelerate to shake them off.”
Prince Theodore said in anger and surprise.
“Understood!”
The Operator immediately complied.
But not long after, the Operator found that the distance was not only not widening but actually shrinking. He reported in horror.
“Your Highness, it’s no good! They’ve also accelerated, and they’re faster than us, and their main cannon is charging.”
Upon hearing this, Prince Theodore was so angry that he laughed instead.
“How arrogant! We weren’t even looking for trouble with them, and they came looking for us first. Send them a communication request!”
“Yes.”
The Operator immediately complied.
Soon, the communication was successfully connected, and General Sigrid’s image appeared on the operating screen.
Prince Theodore spoke with irritation.
“Sigrid, what do you mean? Do you want to start a fight?”
“That’s right. Weren’t you very boisterous at the banquet? Today, I’ll send you on your way and let you witness the Federation’s strength.”
General Sigrid replied unceremoniously.
“You!”
Prince Theodore was so angry his lungs were about to explode.
At this moment, Akteon also stepped forward and said coldly.
“Arrogant, aren’t you afraid of biting your tongue?”
“I alone am enough. More words are useless!”
General Sigrid finished speaking and directly cut off the communication.
Although Prince Theodore was extremely annoyed, he still suppressed his anger and rationally looked at Akteon, asking.
“Akteon, what do we do now? These Federation guys are going too far.”
“Your Highness, I will go out and entangle them. You immediately dispatch small reconnaissance ships and have them travel in the direction of our main force’s rendezvous to notify the main force to come for support.”
Akteon said with a deep frown.
“Are you confident?”
“We have no choice now.”
“Alright!”
Prince Theodore then gritted his teeth and agreed.
Inside the Yan Tooth’s Central Control Room.
“Titanter, you follow me!”
General Sigrid waved his hand and led many generals towards the rapid movement platform.
Soon, they arrived at the hangar.
Sigrid walked in front of the V Generation Mecha – Netherworld Apostle. The cockpit automatically opened, and he floated inside.
Once he entered the cockpit, the hatch automatically closed.
Immediately after, the V Generation Mecha – Netherworld Apostle’s scarlet eyes lit up, and the entire Mecha awakened Li Ke a sleeping beast, an aura of terrifying oppression spreading out.
At this moment, Titanter and the others activated their Mechas one after another.
“Go!”
Sigrid gave the order, then controlled the Netherworld Apostle to rush towards the exit.
Titanter and the others followed suit.
In the starry sky.
Yan Tooth opened a row of exits.
Swish, swish~
Mechas rushed out one after another.
At this moment, Dark Star’s exit also opened.
Akteon, piloting the V Generation Armor – Death Judgment, led a series of Mechas rushing out.
At the same time, the bottom split open, and a miniature reconnaissance ship was secretly released, fleeing into the distance.
At this moment, Sigrid immediately locked onto Akteon and said excitedly.
“Follow me!”
Sigrid controlled the V Generation Mecha – Netherworld Apostle with full power, transforming into a terrifying streak of light, attacking Akteon with a destructive posture.
Akteon’s heart sank, and he immediately controlled the V Generation Armor – Death Judgment, meeting the attack with full force.
Instantly, the two collided in the starry sky.
A terrifying impact swept out, and the space in the entire area fractured.
Titanter and the others were deeply shocked by this scene. They decisively avoided the central combat zone and attacked the enemy.
At this moment, Yan Tooth’s main cannon was also fully charged and immediately fired at Dark Star.
Boom!
Instantly, Dark Star’s energy barrier was hit, and a huge explosion swept out.
Inside the Dark Star Central Control Room.
Red warning boxes popped up one by one.
“Warning: Energy barrier strength has dropped by thirty-one percent.”
Prince Theodore roared in fury.
“Damn it, counterattack fiercely!”
“Yes, sir!”
The subordinates present quickly responded.
Dark Star’s main cannon immediately glowed brightly, followed by a brilliant beam of light shooting out, striking directly at Yan Tooth!
Without any surprise, Yan Tooth was hit, and with a huge explosion rising, its energy barrier shook violently.
However, Yan Tooth didn’t care at all. Instead, it moved towards Dark Star. At the same time, rows of launch ports opened, furiously unleashing barrages, taking a stance of fighting to the death.
Dark Star also did not retreat, opening all its launch ports and frantically unleashing missiles for interception.
Missiles from both sides collided in the starry sky, and countless dazzling fireworks exploded.
At this moment, inconspicuous hypersonic missiles shot out from the explosions, attacking the ships of both sides.
Boom!
These missiles hit the ships of both sides, and dazzling suns rose one after another.
Dark Star and Yan Tooth’s energy barriers twisted violently.
Inside the Dark Star Central Control Room.
Operators struggled to steady themselves, reporting nervously.
“Your Highness, the energy barrier strength has dropped to twenty-three percent, it’s nearing the danger line!”
Upon hearing this, Prince Theodore’s face turned extremely dark. These damned guys were truly ruthless.
Just then, a piercing alarm sounded.
The scanning device immediately displayed a super large red dot.
“Oh no! V Generation Mecha – Dragon Destroyer detected!”
“What did you say?”
Prince Theodore nearly fell off his command chair when he heard that.
“Your Highness, the enemy is attacking us!”
The Operator shouted in horror.
An optical image popped up, showing a dark golden stream of light cutting through the dark starry sky, with space violently fluctuating wherever it passed.
Prince Theodore roared in terror.
“Quick, unleash all missiles, all interceptor cannons open! Stop him for me!”
“Yes, sir!”
The Operator responded in panic.
In the starry sky.
Dark Star’s countless interceptor cannons turned, and rows of launchers opened.
Countless beams of light and missiles shot towards the dark golden stream of light!
As a result, the stream of light directly pierced through the incoming attacks, irresistibly crashing into Dark Star’s energy barrier!
Boom!
Instantly, Dark Star’s energy shield shattered and disintegrated.
“No!”
Prince Theodore screamed in despair.
Inside the Worm Tomb.
Su Ming took a few deep breaths, suppressing the surging emotions in his heart.
Looking out, the entire bottom of the nest was piled with countless bones of various kinds.
At the very center sat a gigantic insect carcass, tens of kilometers long and a thousand meters high, emitting a faint green glow.
At this moment, Little Gray excitedly raised its small paw, pointing towards the giant insect carcass in the center.
Su Ming looked closely, but didn’t see anything special, other than the corpse bones emitting a faint glow.
He said to Little Gray with a strange expression.
“There’s nothing there. You’re not trying to make me move that insect carcass back, are you? I can’t move it, it’s too big.”
Little Gray shook its head continuously, its small paw constantly pointing.
In its eyes, red light spots kept drifting out from inside the insect carcass.
Su Ming took a deep breath, carefully controlling the Slaughter Blade to fly over, occasionally glancing at the mountain of bones piled below. He was afraid that some unknown Zerg creature might crawl out from inside and launch an attack, which would be disastrous.
Soon, Su Ming controlled the Mecha and flew in front of the giant insect carcass.
However, he still didn’t see anything special, but Little Gray kept pointing at the insect carcass.
Su Ming frowned deeply, examining it carefully, and then his eyes widened instantly.
Inside the rows of ribs of the giant insect carcass, a very special plant was growing. It had crescent-shaped leaves with clear red veins, Li Ke blood vessels, and a vibrant flower blooming at the top. Its roots were tie into the soil, absorbing nutrients from the entire insect nest’s pile of corpses.
“What is this thing?”
Su Ming locked onto this green plant to perform data matching and analysis.
“Prompt: Identification failed!”
“Unknown species.”
One prompt after another popped up.
Su Ming was slightly surprised that it couldn’t be identified.
