The system chose to close off, indicating it didn't want to deal with the irrational extortion, leaving the latter without a recourse.
Chen Fei had no doubts, if he continued to be relentless, the Dog System would definitely keep fabricating various reasons to continuously deduct his energy points as a warning—damn system maintenance!
Look at the systems of others, so obedient, yet Chen Fei's system was causing all sorts of trouble!
Chen Xiao'er felt as helpless with this Dog System as "Adam" did.
At dusk, news arrived from the Dinsional Gate Managent Substation.
A fleet of Void Ships from the Slan Dynasty entered the atmosphere, providing support to the legions still loyal to the dynasty and continuing to fight against the rebel army, stabilizing the situation to a certain extent and preventing the suddenly fully-engaged rebel army from seizing the entire Zilu Continent in one fell swoop.
However, to completely suppress the rebel army, relying solely on one or two fleets of Void Ships was far from enough. The tactical purpose of this Void Ship was mainly to lay the groundwork for the deploynt of a larger army to quell the rebellion in the next phase.
The grand army of the Slan Dynasty was still in the process of assembling, and now it was just the calm before the storm. The battles happening in Nandu City were minor for both the dynasty and the rebel forces, the real battlefield was not here.
In fact, since last night, the battles in Nandu City, the third-largest city on the Zilu Continent, had essentially concluded.
Apart from a Ground Portal Gate Managent Substation in the suburbs, a dozen Blue Star Sovereignty consulates huddled together, and the upscale business hotel hosting a Blue Star equipnt supplier showcase, most areas had already fallen into the hands of the rebels.
So areas were beginning to recover in social order, after all, the common people needed to work to eat.
The rebels hadn't planned on wrecking the entire continent; if they did, nobody could survive, and they wouldn't have to wait for the empire's army to arrive to quell the rebellion—they'd be finished already.
Although they hadn't fully succeeded—they hadn't managed to capture the military equipnt suppliers at the showcase nor successfully taken over the suburban Dinsional Gate Managent Substation—the minor setback hadn't affected the initial strategic objective of the rebels.
In terms of the current results, they didn't score a perfect hundred percent, but at least seventy or eighty percent, which was passable and barely satisfactory.
The biggest loss was mainly due to the ground combat personnel casualties and the destruction of four main force Lightwing Ships during the attack on the Dinsional Gate Managent Substation, almost causing the rebels to lose air superiority over the entire area of Nandu City, Chen Xiao'er had been too ruthless.
After the senseless adult tallic Dragon broke away from the fight, the rebel offensive stopped.
After all, the entire battle was a ss, and the dragon's brain was nearly turned into a dog's brain. Releasing the tallic Dragon for combat was like killing a thousand enemies while self-harming three thousand, even affecting the rebel command center and almost being completely wiped out.
This situation was very much in line with the behavior pattern of tallic Dragons, which, once mad, recognized no kin. Regardless of whether it lost its senses or not, the outco wouldn't be much different.
Having suffered heavy losses, the rebels couldn't organize a new offensive for a while, allowing the Dinsional Gate Managent Substation to have a precious opportunity to rest and further strengthen its defenses.
Having resupplied the chanical dragon, Chen Fei did not return to the senior business hotel to et Princess Lin Ziyu and Teacher Shen Fei but continued to assist with the defense work at the Dinsional Gate Managent Substation.
On one hand, the defense contract was still not concluded, and on the other hand, the importance of the plane coordinates "Longinus" could not be neglected. Both publicly and privately, he could not leave.
As for the safety at the hotel, there was no need to worry too much.
Despite the absence of the covert protection by the Strong n Team, there were still the female tallic Dragon Yilan and the newly recruited core mbers of the Hundred-Legs Gang, ensuring both quality and quantity of fighting power.
The combat capability of the tallic Dragons was beyond doubt. Although the gang mbers were a disorganized crowd, professional in bullying civilians, they weren't on par with the formal military's rebel army. However, if they were strictly governed, with tight training and morale kept high, they could still be utilized. Whether it was Teacher Shen Fei, Princess Lin Ziyu, or chief bodyguard Louis Landon, all possessed the capability in this regard.
The vendors participating in this military equipnt expo were not lacking in various combat gear, and ammunition was especially abundant. Princess Lin Ziyu had more military supplies in her hands than Chen Fei had in his Space System Alchemy Storage Device.
With the distance from the Dinsional Gate Managent Substation to the senior business hotel still within the firing range of the Floating ga Cannon, whether it was the 600 Demolition Bombs or the powerful Tactical Weapon "Dragon Slayer Missile," both were capable of utterly obliterating enemy targets near the hotel.
"Princess, I just received a ssage. The Void Ship has entered Zilu Continent, and I estimate that the tide of war will soon turn," Chen said.
The drones relay the laser signals that could not be interfered with by electromagnetic waves, allowing Chen Fei to find ti to communicate with Princess Lin Ziyu at the senior business hotel.
After the onset of the war, as the rebel army ran low on supplies, the number of drones dwindled in the war of attrition. Eventually, the Dinsional Gate Managent Substation, always able to receive massive supplies from Blue Star, successfully took control of the skies, stabilizing communications significantly.
Chen Fei had considered bringing Princess Lin Ziyu and others to the Dinsional Gate Managent Substation for refuge, where they could retreat to Blue Star tily if the situation turned unfavorable, and the princess could then use another dinsional gate to return to Cangqiong Star, deftly avoiding the rebellious Zilu Continent.
But he could not guarantee safety during the journey.
If the rebels released the mindless adult tallic Dragon again or launched an aggressive attack at all costs, even when Chen Fei had no shortage of "Dragon Slayer Missiles," he still could not afford to gamble with any incident.
Therefore, Princess Lin Ziyu and Shen Fei and others temporarily stayed in the senior business hotel, protected by buildings and a large-scale Tactical Composite Magic Shield that could be deployed at any ti. As long as the real identity of the princess remained concealed, the rebels would not devote too much attention to targets of little value, thus relatively increasing their safety.
"How is the situation in Jiaming Town? Many people here are concerned," said the Princess.
Princess Lin Ziyu was aware of Chen Fei dispatching the Strong n Team to a new battlefield 150 kiloters away. Compared to the temporarily paused battle at the Dinsional Gate Managent Substation, the focus had now moved to Jiaming Town.
But inside the entire senior business hotel, the real number of inford individuals did not exceed the numbers on two hands, not even all of Louis Landon's bodyguards were privy to it.
However, since Princess Lin Ziyu was aware, essentially it ant the Silan Dynasty was also inford.
The caution exercised by the magnate of Louis Industries was actually unnecessary; as rulers of the Cangqiong Star, the Silan Dynasty also did not want to see the Blue Star Civilization be exterminated by the parasitic species.
If Blue Star Civilization were to suffer any misfortune, the Cangqiong Star Civilization might not remain unscathed either.
Although Louis Landon's "prophecy" had so deviations, the parasitic species had indeed appeared, and the civilization apocalypse ntioned in the "prophecy" could also occur.
"The drones are temporarily unable to establish a direct communication link to Jiaming Town. There's a delay in the information transmission, but we should be receiving news soon,"
Chen Fei had "Adam" remotely control the drones to establish a new laser communication channel, but he could not extend the communication distance to beyond seventy kiloters. After losing over a hundred drones, he had to give up.
The rebel army's interference with the radio was quite thorough, and the actual control radius of the Dinsional Gate Managent Substation was very limited. Chen Fei had no other options.
Moreover, the main focus of the "Intelligence Team" was still at the Dinsional Gate Managent Substation. With casualties occurring in the team assigned to Jiaming Town, manpower suddenly beca insufficient, making it temporarily impossible to improve the efficiency of intelligence transmission.
"How about sending Yilan there?"
Princess Lin Ziyu didn't think that the high-ranking ability users of the "Strong n Team" could handle the parasitic species in Jiaming Town.
If they had the capability to destroy an entire civilization, they should under no circumstances underestimate the opponent's cunning and strength. No amount of combat power invested could be too much.
"No need. The real use of the 'Strong n Team' is actually cannon fodder. Let's not talk about this now. A call is coming in; it should be a ssage from the 'Intelligence Team.'
Chen Fei refused to let the female gold giant dragon Yilan leave the business hotel. He could understand the real purpose behind Louis Landon's organization of these three teams; no one was exempt from being sacrificed.
For the continuation of the human race, anyone could beco cannon fodder.
Resisting the parasitic species that could destroy the entire Blue Star human civilization single-handedly was nothing short of delusional.
The greatest value of the three teams lay in disrupting the initial activities of the parasitic species, identifying their invasion channels, so that Cangqiong Star and Blue Star could react and pay attention right away, and respond with all their might. That was the correct way to conduct intercivilizational competition.
"'Rookie', Jiaming Town has completely fallen..."
-
About one hundred fifty kiloters from Nandu City, Jiaming Town had already turned into a ghost domain.
n and won, old and young, all wandered the streets like zombies, neither eating nor drinking, not resting or sleeping, with a blank stare.
"Have all these guys turned into zombies?"
Kelon, a rank-A dark elental psychic, hid in the shadow of the treetops. He had been lurking here for at least four hours, not seeing a single normal person.
The detector provided by the "Intelligence Team" showed that sources of interference were nearly everywhere, as if these wandering individuals were continuously emitting full-spectrum electromagnetic wave interferences.
The "Strong n Team" was cautious and did not brazenly enter the town, but sent an A-level dark elental psychic who was skilled at lurking and assassination.
Fortunately, this cautious decision avoided having the "Strong n Team" entering Jiaming Town only to end up no different from Xia Ji's gang right after.
"Have you... seen enough?"
A chilling voice entered his ears, accompanied by a steamy breath that made the hairs on the back of his neck stand up, sending chills down his spine.
"Wha... what? Hiss! Ah!!!"
Kelon subconsciously tried to shadow transform and escape, but it felt as though he was suddenly smacked hard with a hamr. His brain buzzed violently, and he was struck with a splitting headache, tumbling down from the tree.
From beginning to end, he never managed to see clearly what the owner of the voice behind him looked like.
At a distance, a mber of the "Strong n Team" using a high-powered binoculars witnessed this scene and imdiately shouted.
"Oh my god, Kelon has been attacked!"
Prior to formal action, the infiltration to survey the situation and external observation were well-handled by capable individuals within the "Strong n Team."
"We must rescue Kelon imdiately!"
"No! If an A-level dark elental psychic can't escape on his own, nobody else can help him. Continue observing."
"What? Give up on Kelon? Do you plan to abandon everyone?"
"I am being responsible for everyone! Didn't you see the condition of the 'Intelligence Team' casualties? Rashly heading there will only be sending ourselves to death!"
"Aren't you being overly cautious?"
"If you want to die, go ahead by yourself!"
...
However, an argunt erupted within the "Strong n Team."
