615: Chapter 15: Ru Lan Empire Fleet!

[The First Surge] _1 615: Chapter 15: Ru Lan Empire Fleet!

[The First Surge] _1 This contrast made their blood boil.

However, if they were to abandon everything, even if they could survive the watchful eyes of the Earth Army snipers and avoid the detonation of the small bombs implanted within them, where could they return to?

Could they continue with their mundane lives?

A majority of the Earth City soldiers, some of whom might have become part of this force tonight for the first time, were realizing they no longer wanted to return to their former lives!

Even those who pondered more rationally knew that even if they were able to return to their past lives, as part of the military force of Earth City, they would become wanted individuals in this city, leading lives more difficult than before.

“The Lords would never want us to die in vain!

They must have a plan!

Believe in the lords and move forward!”

“Yes!

Aside from implanting bombs, Lady Daphne has always treated us with utmost care.

I have personally witnessed her apply a medicine to a wounded soldier.

How could such a wonderful commander allow us to march towards our deaths?”

Some of the deeds Daphne had done in the past were making a difference now.

Soldiers shared their experiences over their channels.

Of course, how many of them were ‘insiders’ was an unknown affair.

“Attack!”

Perhaps Earth City had its flaws, but under its leadership, they had scored a massive victory, something beyond their anticipation.

Why not go a little more insane?

Take the battle of Earth City to an even higher level!

After all, they had a real expert in combat among them, their great ‘Lord Assassin’!

If they attacked a heavily fortified place, the Lord Assassin would definitely step in!

It seemed like only now did these soldiers finally show some resemblance to true soldiers.

Daphne’s plan for the soldiers was the principle of the ‘boiling frog’, a strategy she had been implementing since the time on Earth.

In many major battles in Earth’s history, similar tactics were omnipresent.

Citizens of recently conquered enemy cities, or countries were immediately driven to be the vanguard for attacks against the next city or country.

“Yes, sir!”

One by one, the team leaders breathed heavy sighs of relief as they accepted Daphne’s assignment with grave expressions.

They were still in the dark about the exact intentions behind Earth City’s action.

However, this didn’t stop Daphne from emphasizing the soldier’s duty – to follow orders.

Compared to the newcomers, these leaders, being former Earth City members, felt a stronger sense of duty and honor towards Earth City.

The Earth Army, in the midst of its offensive push, abruptly halted its attack as they were about to invade the core area of Fifth City.

This sudden halt left the hastily assembled defensive team in the core area flabbergasted, as if they had punched a ball of cotton.

But they sure did feel relieved about not having to fight.

No one considered this small ‘Golden Desert Force’, which they had once looked down upon, as a mere rural force anymore, as it had not only broken through the defense of the patrol team but had surpassed various powerful organizations!

As Earth City altered its path of invasion, naturally the conscripted force of Fifth City wouldn’t dare to intercept them.

Although this information was reported promptly, the reactions of all the forces couldn’t be that swift!

However, this did not include a certain super-civilization power that had been eager and waiting for an opportunity!

Dozens of warships of various sizes hung silently in the profound cosmic starry sky, making up a mid-sized fleet.

Leading this fleet were four 500-meter massive warships, followed by a fleet of over thirty 200-meter powerful warships.

Each of them bore a flower-like emblem, indicating they were from the empire that Daphne had always desired to be a part of – the Ru Lan Empire!

Although Daphne’s dreams were shattered after she learned about the mediocrity of this interstellar civilization, they had nevertheless learned about the ‘Gravitational Wave Theory’ through Daphne and became aware of its significance.

But now with Daphne sinking into Earth City’s force and enhancing her combat power to the level of Heavenly Peak with stolen powerful equipment, they had no other way but to forcefully capture her.

“All right, Earth City and Fifth City have already started their battle, and thanks to our diplomats’ mediation, we’ve successfully stopped the Auster Empire’s four small warships intending to approach the Grey-Yellow Star!”

The fleet commander of the Ru Lan Empire’s Grey-Yellow Star squadron stood tall in the command cabin of a 500-meter class warship.

The warship’s name was ‘Flower Fall’, the flagship of this ‘Flower Fall Fleet’.

Just as Daphne and Jia Yan knew, the Ru Lan Empire was fond of luxury and extravagance.

Therefore, everything, including their warships, was extravagantly decorated.

It is one of the unique characteristics of the Ru Lan Empire.

Despite constantly criticized by other interstellar civilizations, they enjoy spending on lavish decorations, even exceeding the cost of similar class warships from other civilizations by twofold.

The commander was sitting in a flower-like command chair, issuing commands to his advisors.

Although the warships were overly decorated and beautiful, they were not just form over function.

The Flower Fall Fleet had withstood many war periods in the Grey-Yellow Star, and despite being driven out of the Grey-Yellow Star, it consistently held a top-five power position in the Scholz’s star system.

It was certainly not a weak fleet!

“Now we can confirm that, near the Grey-Yellow Star, no other fleets that could assist are stronger than us.

Moreover, under our design, we have inserted our chess pieces into Fifth City’s spaceport!”

“Quickly, notify the information broadcasters to issue a message to the entire star system—claiming that a piece of our Ru Lan Empire’s property in Fifth City has been attacked by the Earth Army.

We will join the battle immediately and punish the Earth Army!”

This message was issued by the Flower Fall Fleet Commander, his eyes gleamed with decisiveness!

“Yes!”

Those who responded were extremely efficient operators.

Meanwhile, the entire massive fleet finally made a move, the rear of their ships jetting out dazzling flames as they quietly began to mobilize!

This fleet, led by four 500-meter large space warships, hastily journeyed towards the nearby Grey-Yellow Star!

The sound of explosions from the battle above Fifth City continued, albeit sporadically.

Organizations that weren’t affected wouldn’t risk their lives to attack the Earth Army!

Since the Earth Army’s marching route avoided bustling streets and residential areas, their advance encountered virtually no resistance!

The members of the Earth Army, at last, resembled a proper military force.

During the march, every member was serious, executing their superior’s commands earnestly.

Of course, there were still deserters and quite a few at that.

But under these circumstances, maintaining about eighty percent of the original force was beyond Jia Yan and Daphne’s expectations!

“Quick, quick!

Haven’t you all had enough to eat?

Oh, I remember you don’t need to eat, didn’t you absorb electricity last night?

Why do you look so weak?

Run faster!”

A commanding officer shouted angrily at a monster, which was visibly larger than him.

This creature, although clearly stronger than the officer, could only bow its head and scurry.

Its mode of travel was sliding, similar to a thirty-meter long electric eel.

It could only rely on its brainwave power and sliding force to travel, making it slow.

However, there were even more peculiar creatures among the Earth City’s lifeforms, some of which were like soft mud, wriggling on the ground.

But each of these creatures pushed themselves to keep up with the group and run towards the front.

But what’s prevalent in the Earth army were the tanks.

Troops unable to move quickly were loaded onto tanks and continued to dash forward.

“Hurry!

Hurry!”

In the sky, a touch of grey-yellow sunlight gently spilled, and the extremely powerful life forms finally enjoyed the intoxicating warmth of the first light after a night of fierce battle.

Dawn has arrived!

“We only have one day and one night left of the three-day deadline.

But if the news of our attack on the spaceport leaks, those civilizations should start acting against us!

So, the time will undoubtedly be brought forward.”

Daphne held her holographic smart brain in her arms.

She appeared as peaceful as a knowledgeable girl, but anyone who knew her true nature would fear her present appearance.

That’s because every time Daphne behaves this way, it’s when she comes up with strange ideas, which often turn out to be incredibly accurate.

Now it’s as such.

Although Daphne appeared incredibly calm, what she had in mind was the upcoming enormous bloodbath!

(The first explosive update!!

Thanks to the 20,000 Starty Coin reward from ‘Heavenly Feather, Heavenly Moon’, since this is the case, I’m going on all out.

There will also be explosive updates tomorrow.

And as for today’s explosive updates, you all will see how many there are in a while.)
