"Mr. President, there's news from Twilight. Their knight has gone missing." General Ed reported the bad news to the president with a serious expression.
General Ed was the person in charge of observing the war between Twilight and the Federation.
The president frowned. "What happened?"
"Ling Xiao gave up on attacking the Twilight Capital and turned to attack the Twilight Logistics Base, Three Star Lock." General Ed's expression was dark. "Knight Allomone followed our original plan and hid in Three Star Lock."
"That means Ling Xiao succeeded." The president looked down. He didn't reveal any emotions.
"Yes, Three Star Lock is completely destroyed. If Twilight doesn't get any supplies from the outside world, they might collapse on their own." General Ed had a bitter expression on his face. He wanted to use Twilight to test the limits of the Federation. Now, it seemed that they couldn't even cause any trouble for the Federation. What made him even more frustrated was that their god-class operator had gone missing. He might have been captured by the enemy. Or, was he dead?
General Ed quickly stopped thinking about this. How could a god-class operator be sacrificed? He must have known that they were going to lose so he decided to stop the war and become a 'guest' of the Federation.
"Did Twilight find Ling Xiao?" The president was very concerned about Ling Xiao's whereabouts.
"No. Twilight was too late. Ling Xiao escaped." General Ed smiled bitterly.
"He didn't escape. It was a perfect retreat," the president said calmly.
"That's right. That's the only thing Twilight can do to cover up their failure," Ed agreed.
The president sighed. He leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes. He seemed to be thinking about something.
The president's office was silent for a few minutes. General Ed couldn't hold it in anymore. He asked in a low voice, "President, are we still going to wait?"
The entire Caesar was ready for war. They were just waiting for the president's order to go to Twilight. Of course, this also meant that another intergalactic war was about to begin. Caesar also wanted to use this war to completely defeat the Federation and become the overlord.
The President opened his eyes and slowly stood up. He walked in front of the virtual screen, which was displaying a map of the world. He looked at the two countries with the largest territories. One was Caesar, and the other was the Federation. A complicated light flashed in his eyes.
After several seconds of silence, he said, "Well … the time isn't right yet."
"Then when is that time?" General Ed asked impulsively.
The President abruptly turned to look at him, a sharp glint flashing across his eyes.
General Ai De felt a chill in his heart and quickly lowered his head, not daring to speak again.
Seeing this, the President's cold eyes immediately softened. He said indifferently, "Don't be impatient. Only those who know how to endure can achieve what they want."
Should he endure it? General Ed let out a gloomy sigh, but he didn't dare to say anything more. Compared to the Federation's Three Marshals, Caesar had always had a presidential system. Regardless of whether it was the government or the military, they all followed the president's orders. Unless the president did something that harmed the country or committed an unforgivable mistake, the Legislative Council would impeach him. Only if the impeachment was successful could he be removed from office.
"Only when we gain enough benefits will we have any meaning in participating in this war. But now, it's not enough. "The President's wise eyes didn't hide his ambition.
Admiral Ed fell into deep thought, as if he had thought of something.
"Tell the people below to hold back their anger. When the time is right, let them vent it out." The President's calm voice sounded again. His words seemed calm but they were filled with killing intent.
General Ed shuddered and immediately replied, "Yes, Mr. President."
In Base Nebula, the news of Ling Xiao successfully attacking Three Stars Lock and leaving safely was successfully intercepted by Little Four. He immediately reported it to his boss, Ling Lan.
"Boss, good news, good news. Daddy made a miraculous contribution and destroyed Three Stars Lock. "Little Four excitedly danced in Ling Lan's mindscape. He couldn't stop.
When Ling Lan heard the news, she wasn't as excited as Little Four thought. Instead, she had a serious expression on her face.
Little Four's heart skipped a beat. His limbs froze. He asked in confusion, "Boss, what's wrong? Is it not good for daddy to make a contribution? "
Ling Lan shook her head. "It's not that it's not good. It's just that … someone won't be able to sit still anymore."
Her father's nemesis would definitely not allow her father to reach the peak of power so easily. Perhaps, a plot against her father was about to happen. Her mother was from the Lan family and she was in the military on Planet General. Even if the Lan family didn't acknowledge her publicly, they wouldn't let anyone touch her on their territory. On the other hand, she had no one to rely on at the Nebula Boundary. She was the easiest person to plot against.
That was why her father reminded her to be prepared before they set off for battle. If she wasn't wrong, her Lingtian Independent Army should be giving out new orders soon.
Not long after, the news of Ling Xiao ambushing Three Stars Lock spread throughout the galaxy.
The battle on Qi Yaoyang's side was still in a stalemate. However, after knowing that Ling Xiao ambushed Three Stars Lock, they suddenly gave up on their original battle line. They gave up on a few planets at the frontlines and met up with the divisions that rushed over from Three Stars Lock. Then, they started preparing for a huge counterattack.
Qi Yaoyang saw this and didn't advance recklessly. Even if he brought four god-class operators with him, he was definitely courting death if he wanted to fight against the five divisions and four god-class operators of Twilight.
Since Ling Xiao's 23rd division was exposed, the 4th division didn't hide anymore. Soon, they met up with the 13th division. The 7th division was still holding back two divisions and one god-class operator at the side.
Qi Yaoyang immediately reported the situation to the military headquarters and requested for reinforcements. The military headquarters quickly took action. They started sending new divisions to the frontlines of Twilight.
The frontlines of the Twilight Empire temporarily stopped fighting. The battlefield quietly shifted to the United Nations. The Twilight Empire criticized Ling Xiao for not caring about humanity and killing innocent citizens of Three Stars Lock. They requested the United Nations to punish Ling Xiao for killing innocent citizens of Three Stars Lock.
The Federation scoffed at this. The start of a national war was a matter of life and death. If they still cared about humanity in such a situation, wouldn't they be asking the soldiers of the Federation to stretch out their necks and let the enemy kill them? Furthermore, Three Stars Lock was the logistics headquarters of Twilight. How could there be innocent citizens?
The two sides engaged in a war of words, going back and forth, arguing endlessly. At times, they would reason, and at other times, they would curse. Of course, when they couldn't get through, they would do some warm-up exercises. This was especially true for the diplomats of the Federation. Their physical skills might be too profound. It was possible for them to throw documents, cups, or even chairs or tables.
