Chapter 634: Chapter 407: The Hidden Second Fleet
When Lin Hao shouted that name, all the officers in the flagship’s command room displayed looks of admiration on their faces.
There was no other reason, only because he was a Colonel of the Federation—Qi Longxiang!
He was the never-defeated Military God in their minds!
This expedition to the Outer Domain Galaxy involved gathering elite fleet forces to traverse an extremely rare concealed wormhole in a near-suicidal manner, directly jumping behind enemy lines.
After fighting a surprise attack for three full months, the loss of half of the fleet had forced the species of the Outer Domain Galaxy to abandon three lines of planetary defense.
When they finally retreated, the Magnetic Field Nuclear Cannon, shaped like a Heavy Hammer, eventually roared, but it was towards that fourth planet…
The retreating battle units of the Outer Domain Galaxy heading for the fourth planetary defense line were almost entirely wiped out.
Carrying the glory of victory, they received a call for help from Blue Capital Star on their way back.
“Blue Capital Star is where our Colonel Qi’s alma mater is located. Buck up everyone, we must not disgrace our Colonel!”
The soldiers in the back looked at each other, and a fighting spirit ignited in their eyes simultaneously.
They were the third Special Service Fleet of the General Staff, the truly unbeaten champions full of glory!
“All personnel—prepare for battle!”
“Yes, sir.”
“Yes, sir!”
Moments later, the engines at the back of the fleet’s hundred-plus warships changed from orange-yellow to pale white, then the entire fleet transformed into a massive arrowhead, accelerating at a peculiar angle.
Instantly, they turned into a stream of light rushing towards the massive and beautiful deep blue planet.
…
The Federation Ground Defense Department was now entering emergency mode.
“The Special Service Fleet will arrive here in five minutes, please arrange the evacuation of the site as soon as possible.”
“Are there any special circumstances in the near-earth defense ring?”
“Reporting to the officer, no.”
“Increase radar power for a second-range scan, the Strangling Demon Snake was able to locate this place, so there must be supporting troops! I do not believe Andumari would dare to come here on his own.”
“Secondary scanning begins, no abnormalities so far, continuing observation.”
“Keep observing!”
“Yes, officer.”
In this concealed base, countless civilians would never be able to meet the high-tier military equipment that had already been fully activated.
However, they truly could not detect the concealed Andumari fleet!
Because unless they sent a fleet deep into the asteroid belts scattered throughout the Crystal Blue Nebula, it would be possible to discover that behind every large floating meteorite, a ship was fixed.
All ships were in silent mode.
Outstanding concealment—this was the distinctive characteristic of Solomon’s Seventy-two Gateposts represented by Andumari!
…
What the military did not know at this moment, however, was that there was indeed a situation that was somewhat beyond their expectations.
If anyone could see that scene, they would be incredibly shocked, even more stunned than witnessing the magnificent battle at the Land of Bright Star.
Outside the Star Ring of Blue Capital Star, there was an exceedingly massive asteroid belt encircling it.
These millions of meteorites created a unique magnificent landscape of Blue Capital Star and brought countless dangers. It was too difficult to establish normal routes here.
Moreover, this area was a public zone, and the Federation had not placed any outposts in these public areas.
Aside from some privately-owned space stations and transfer stations, this area seemed exceptionally desolate.
However, at this moment, within a range secretly encircled by meteorites in this asteroid belt…
There was a fleet comprised of around thirty heavy battlecruisers floating nearby, their entire bodies shimmering silver-white. Among them, the most conspicuous was a large warship wrapped in a layer of purple crystal, guarded by the fleet.
Although it lacked the ferocious muzzles like the surrounding warships, even those who knew nothing about the structure of warships could tell at a glance that this was the flagship!
This warship seemed to exude an eerie danger everywhere.
At this moment, on the deck of this warship, a private spacecraft from Blue Capital Star was resting.
In the towering bridge’s third level, the combat hall.
However, the atmosphere inside had nothing to do with combat.
There were many people in the hall, yet the focus was on two individuals.
A young man, dressed in golden-white brocaded clothes, lounged leisurely in a higher seat, his calm and elegant handsome face and well-proportioned body even the fussiest critics couldn’t help but praise, truly a beautiful man.
The young man’s lips seemed forever curled into a sly, alluring smile, that laziness emanating from his bones, a true exposure of his character without any cover.
Behind him, a row of beautiful women, like lotuses out of water, knelt quietly, their purity hinting at coquetry, their watery eyes constantly exuding charm.
However, no one present dared to look towards those women, and at the side, a tall middle-aged man with a full beard was sitting quietly.
And kneeling below was a young man whose face showed respect, and he had a heroic demeanor similar to the golden-white clothed youth particularly in his genteel nature.
However, upon closer inspection, he lacked the grand demeanor the other possessed.
Especially the respectful look in his eyes and the unintentional restraint in his body made it easy to guess the disparity in their statuses.
The difference in aura surely stemmed from the inequality of their strengths.
When the young man below raised his forehead that rested on the back of his hands, he revealed a familiar face.
It was…
Lin Wu!
The legitimate eldest son of the Lin family among the seven major families of Blue Capital.
Who would have thought that Lin Wu, who had just been at Land of Bright Star a few days ago, would appear in the distant asteroid belt only a few days later?
And he appeared on a… warship of the Gardot Empire!
The young man above was indeed the prince of the Gardot Empire—Prince Xuyang!
Looking at this, the towering man sitting like a mountain beside them must be the Marshal of Royal Forbidden Army and the owner of the Black Knight from the Twelve Demon God Machines—Reingano!
The three of them met at such a bizarre moment.
No one expected that Lin Wu, on this special occasion, would have such a private meeting with Prince Xuyang, whose name resounded throughout the Gardot Empire.
“Mr. Lin, thank you for your great contribution to the Empire’s cause. I will certainly remember this kindness,” said Prince Xuyang with a lazy look, raising his glass as he looked at the young man lifting his head. “To our common great endeavor, I toast to you.”
“I dare not, thank you for your grace, Your Highness.”
At this moment, Lin Wu utterly lacked the indifferent demeanor he held in front of Donald.
He deeply understood the terror of the person before him, a presence even more horrifying than Reingano—the ‘Demon King’ known for slaughtering!
Capricious, a life and death as whim dictates.
You never know what he might say next underneath that lazy smile.
A single word could elevate a commoner to the heavens. A single word could also turn centuries-old nobility into ashes.
And with an endless supply of capable and fierce subordinates, his extreme military power was even enough to establish a separate nation.
Lin Wu, for the century-old cause of the Lin family, had nearly inevitably begun deep infiltration within the Empire as a precaution.
“Mr. Lin, I have come here concerning you to explain two matters. Firstly, to inquire about the whereabouts of Ruins Technology. Secondly, to express my personal concern for Mr. Lin’s safety.”
“Lin Wu knows everything there is to know, and the first matter happens to be what I need to report. If possible, Your Highness, you might switch to the external network mode, and I will explain it to you.”
