Chapter 764: Chapter 117 Mandala Star_2
Xu Mo silently listened to the discussions around him. Lucas Star had not experienced war for a long ti and had not faced any significant threats. The people lacked a sense of crisis and were unaware of the cruelty of war.
If a star like Lucas Star were to go to war, the intensity of the conflict would be unimaginable.
In the past, a single fleet from Mandala Star wiped out Byron Star, which speaks volus about Mandala Star’s strength.
According to historical records he had seen, Mandala was skilled in warfare. In those days, Mandala had trained countless warriors; they were natural war machines. Later, when war broke out, the United Kingdom led by Mandala Star deployed millions into battle. In the interstellar age, wars were not about numbers but about weapons and equipnt; each warrior was an elite fighter.
In wars of this scale, it was hard to imagine how massive and intense the battles would be.
“Xiao Nan, student,” Xu Mo called out when he saw Nan Xiangyi approaching, quietly holding her books, as graceful as ever.
“Co here,” Xu Mo said.
Nan Xiangyi glanced at him but still sat down across from Xu Mo, looking at him.
“Xiao Nan, student, have you discussed the matter I ntioned last ti with your family?” Xu Mo asked.
“In the interstellar age, any warship is an important weapon for a planet; Canaan Star will not easily give up a warship. However, if you want to purchase other weapons, there should be no problem,” Nan Xiangyi replied, her voice still gentle.
“Xiao Nan, student, everything is negotiable,” Xu Mo said. “Think about it, you also know about the technology of Blue Star Energy Technology Group. And you own seventy percent of the subsidiary’s shares. By then, seventy percent of the formidable weapons produced by the subsidiary could practically be considered yours.”
“Hmm,” Nan Xiangyi nodded, agreeing that made sense.
“Seventy percent, a super-armant factory, and yet you are unwilling to provide with a single warship first?” Xu Mo said. “You know about the attack last ti. If the base is gone, the Blue Star Energy Technology Group is gone. Without the group, there will be a technological gap; the subsidiary will be wasted, and Canaan Star will lose an important armant factory.”
Nan Xiangyi blinked, Xu Mo seed to make so sense.
“You are aware, Mandala Star is making a coback, and you must understand what that ans, right? Once war breaks out, it will be the test of rapid troop mobilization, and an armant factory is crucial. Don’t you wish for Blue Star Energy Technology Group to fully support Canaan Star?” Xu Mo continued to persuade.
“Even if war breaks out, there are quite a few planets you have to support,” Nan Xiangyi said, harboring a grudge for not having received any shares.
“So, if Canaan Star could provide a warship at this point, then it could gain the friendship of the group, which would naturally strongly support Canaan Star,” Xu Mo said.
“Are you trying to lure with promises?” Nan Xiangyi asked.
……
Xu Mo looked at Nan Xiangyi and said, “Fine, since you’re so reluctant, I need to reevaluate our friendship. The Blue Star Energy Technology headquarters’ technicians are quite busy and don’t have ti to visit Canaan Star’s subsidiary for guidance in the near future, so the production of the superpower weapons might have to be delayed.”
Nan Xiangyi’s eyes widened as she looked at Xu Mo.
“Nan Xiangyi, I have nothing else to say; you can go now,” Xu Mo said.
……
Nan Xiangyi glared at him; it was Xiao Nan, student, when there was a need, and Nan Xiangyi when there was none.
“I’ll discuss it with my family when I go back,” Nan Xiangyi finally said.
Xu Mo’s eyes brightened a bit when he heard Nan Xiangyi’s words and replied, “Xiao Nan, student, truly values our friendship after all. By the way, the first academic year is ending soon. When are you going back? Would you like Zero and to take you out for a al and see you off?”
“No need, thank you, Brother Xu Mo,” Nan Xiangyi stressed the words “Brother Xu Mo” heavily and then got up with her books and walked towards the shelves.
“Good girl,” Xu Mo said, and Nan Xiangyi stumbled, nearly falling. How could soone be so shaless?
After dealing with Nan Xiangyi, Xu Mo pondered where else he could procure weapons and equipnt.
Currently, the Blue Star Energy Technology Group possessed four massive warships: one from the Sasi Kingdom, two plundered from the Olay family and the Black God Fleet, and one retired starship from the Carolan Star.
He could only think of ways to acquire more warships to equip the Blue Star Energy Technology Group to face the changes of the future.
In addition, we probably need to train a batch of commanders.
Take the opportunity to establish a professional training school at the base.
…
Inside the Lucas Star Federation Governnt Building, King Richard was convening a parliantary eting.
“The fleet from Mandala Star has already appeared in the Star System Alliance area, and even so frictions have occurred. They bear ill intent, and we must make a response,” he said.
“Field,” His Majesty the King looked toward the Minister of Defense, Field.
Field rose to his feet and said, “Your Majesty, Lucas Star must imdiately join forces with the Star System Alliance allies and enter a state of military readiness. Whether Mandala Star will declare war or not, we must be prepared. Additionally, we should communicate with Mandala Star, and all major military factories must be activated.”
“Hmm,” King Richard nodded. He had not experienced war during his reign, but this ti, Lucas Star faced a crisis.
“Lucas Star is officially in a state of military readiness,” King Richard declared.
“Yes, Your Majesty,” Field nodded. As the eting concluded, King Richard summoned Field to his side and asked, “What is the current strength of Mandala Star?”
“After their defeat back then, they have been accumulating power and developing. Although they are a defeated star, they had a foundation to build on, and it’s likely they have recovered their vitality over the centuries,” Field responded.
King Richard’s expression grew sowhat solemn as he asked, “Do you have any suggestions?”
“The power of the Cross Judgnt Institute needs to be utilized, as well as all the chanical companies on Lucas Star. If necessary, the Federation Governnt should directly take over and impose military control,” Field continued.
During war tis, everything must operate centered around the governnt.
“Hmm,” King Richard nodded. “Keep an eye on Mandala Planet, see what they are up to.”
As he spoke, King Richard turned to his staff and said, “Start preparing to convene a Star System Alliance summit eting.”
“Yes, Your Majesty,” the staff mber responded.
King Richard continued to walk outside, turning to Charlie at his side and asking, “Charlie, do you have any thoughts?”
Nowadays, Charlie had already started to learn the state affairs under him.
“I agree with Field. Additionally, we can initiate the recruitnt of warriors. Many people on Lucas Star are quite strong,” Charlie said.
“Hmm,” King Richard nodded.
“Dad, there’s sothing I’ve been aning to tell you,” Charlie said.
“Speak,” said King Richard.
“About Elizabeth and Xu Mo, she is actually one-sided in her feelings,” Charlie seed to have so difficulty speaking up, “Xu Mo, already has a girlfriend who is also a student at Lucas University. Elizabeth even had a conflict with her and was pointed at.”
A sharp look flashed in King Richard’s eyes, and an air of authority spread from him as he fixed his gaze on Charlie, “Are you telling the truth?”
Charlie, with his head lowered, said, “I was also exceedingly angry after learning of this matter. It concerns Elizabeth’s reputation, and I hesitated about whether to tell you, but it is verified truth. At Lucas University, it’s an open secret who Xu Mo’s girlfriend is. As for Elizabeth, no one knows her relationship with Xu Mo, but if the news of you inviting Xu Mo goes out, I’m afraid it might impact Elizabeth’s reputation negatively.”
King Richard’s complexion looked rather unhappy. Although Charlie and Elizabeth were not on good terms, it was evident that Charlie wouldn’t dare to deceive him about such a matter.
So, Elizabeth had beco infatuated with a man to the point of losing her senses, even bringing him to their ho and putting on a play before him?
“Bring Xu Mo to ,” King Richard said coldly.
