Capítulo 1382: Chapter 535: Her Final Shackles
[Urgent: Empire civil unrest, Leviathan awakening.]
[The entire network of the Sherman Empire has been completely enveloped by the Dual chanical Thought Body. Detectors near the Levi Fleet’s station are functioning normally, and for now, the Levi Fleet appears undisturbed, the Emperor Star is unperturbed, and we are prepared to evacuate into deep space at any mont.]
[Boss, your virtual consciousness must be ready to evacuate at any ti. I will launch an attack on the City of Light when necessary to cover your retreat. If needed, abandon the virtual consciousness—it will not pose a significant burden to you.]
[The East Wind has retreated to the Empire’s border.]
[This ssage has been communicated to Emilia, and has been concealed from other political entities to prevent panic.]
[Levi seems to have purged most of the Sherman Empire’s elite ruling factions, and I am gathering more intelligence.]
Yang Ming’s eyelids flitted over rows of text. When he opened his eyes, he was t with a silver-gray ceiling.
Levi has awakened?
Yang Ming was still a bit dazed as his mind gradually resud functioning.
This is the dormitory for new recruits at High Training Base 034, and his fellow dorm-mate was snoring like thunder.
He wasn’t sharing the dorm with Kabu, that annoying character, which for Boss Yang was an incredibly delightful experience.
Though, he did indeed miss the feeling of being with Kabu…
That guy was indeed a tad verbose, but inherently loyal, the kind of friend who would bring als from the cafeteria to Yang Ming three hundred tis without ever complaining.
Yang Ming shook his head, forcing himself to focus on the important matters at hand.
Levi has really awakened.
This surprised Yang Ming sowhat, yet it was within reason.
After deciding to confront the Empire directly, Yang Ming and Lyu had anticipated various extre scenarios, including the Levi Fleet suffering massive setbacks and Levi awakening to power the Empire Star’s giant cha to suppress Ilando Star.
For such circumstances, Yang Ming and Little Lyu had prepared comprehensive contingency plans, ensuring Dark Star and themselves could survive.
Indeed, they never intended to directly confront the Empire Star’s gigantic cha.
From another perspective, the series of plans they devised were essentially to avoid such extres.
——The warp-capable Constant Star Cannon is too terrifying; in the current galaxy, it’s an unrivaled weapon.
Should such extre situations arise, Yang Ming has at least three paths to take.
The first path involves negotiating with Levi, using Dark Star’s potential as a wager to counter-threaten Levi, preventing Levi from daring to initiate war, thereby reaching so form of binding agreent, ushering humanity into an era of cold war centered around the two major chanical civilizations in the galaxy.
The second path, temporarily abandoning the populace of Wind Alliance, letting Dark Star retreat into the vast uninhabited Star Domain, sufficiently developing before “Faya’s Ga” ends, to directly annihilate Levi in the Sherman Empire.
Yang Ming certainly does not wish to take the second path, as that would render his and Edwan’s efforts futile, and the sacrifices of the soldiers during the Battle of Sherman and Luofeng aningless.
Whereas, the first path holds too many uncertainties.
The Faya people have already issued a ‘final ultimatum’, and Yang Ming knows that in the reality where ti flows normally, he will soon enter the high-dinsional world.
Thus, he has a third path.
He can join forces with Po Suo to directly enter the Empire Star and substantially destroy this enormous cha.
The cost of doing so would be that he and Po Suo would need to personally massacre thousands, differing from commanding warships in high-intensity warfare, with imnse psychological pressure, inevitably leaving psychological scars.
Though the third path seems the least costly, it is, in truth, the path Yang Ming is most reluctant to attempt.
Yang Ming turned over, lying in bed, beginning to organize his thoughts.
Now there are several questions that need clarifying.
How long will Levi remain awakened?
Upon awakening, does Levi face any possibility of directly collapsing?
Should the arrangents made within the Empire continue to be advanced? Or pause, awaiting Levi’s re-hibernation?
At this mont, Yang Ming cannot directly communicate with Lyu;
But he knows that if an ergency indeed arises, Lyu wouldn’t act on his own but would definitely pull him back from the City of Light.
The ti flow here is a thousand tis faster than reality, even if he sleeps for several hours, only a dozen seconds have passed in reality.
Better sleep first.
Remaining in such ti dilation is quite taxing on the brain.
Yang Ming yawned, readjusted his earplugs, embraced his arms, and closed his eyes to sleep.
In the following months, Yang Ming’s training, rest, combat, and patrols seed rather listless.
The Awakener’s High Training Base sowhat resembles Earth’s “graduate school” in Yang Ming’s impression, requiring participation in learning, training, and so work.
This High Training Base where he is has been set at the intersection of three special districts.
If a mutation event occurs, a small black dot is marked on the map;
Thus, these three districts appear as a continuous shadow zone on the map, with this High Training Base pinned right at the shadow zone’s center like a nail.
On the third day after Yang Ming’s arrival here, he heard the shrill sirens from the northwestern direction;
However, re minutes later, he received the order to deploy and, along with several trainees, boarded an armored hover car, swiftly proceeding to support the event area.
Yang Ming initially thought this was rely a live-fire exercise.
Yet when he witnessed firsthand the mutated being with a crystalized upper body slaughtering two passersby, a compelling shock arose within him, promptly pouncing forward, directly subduing the mutant.
