Translator: ryuxenji Editor: H2dH2mr Just then, the operator of the surveillance radar suddenly shouted, "Unidentified flying objects have appeared. Number, initial estimate is 19."
This shout also attracted the attention of the captain. He quickly ordered, "Expand the image of the unidentified flying objects infinitely."
The operator of the search screen received the coordinates given by the radar operator and began searching. Very quickly, he found the target and began to focus the image. Very soon, the image appeared on the large screen in the control room. From the initial 19 black dots, it slowly expanded until finally a shape could be made out. Although the resolution was very poor and the image was somewhat distorted, everyone could still tell that the shape of these flying objects should be warships.
Civilian spaceships were very different from warships. In terms of appearance, they were very easy to distinguish. Seeing this, everyone was shocked. Where did these unidentified warships come from? Why had they never received any reports of warships passing through their planetary sector?
"Send a signal. Have the other announce their identity," the captain gritted his teeth and ordered. Although he could already sense that something was wrong, he still held on to hope that this batch of warships was from friendly forces.
"Contact ground and report the situation." The captain prepared for both eventualities and ordered the communicator to report the information to the ground defence forces.
"Captain, we can't contact the ground at all. The satellites are all down." The team leader's face was pale as he reported the cruel reality to the captain.
Hearing this, the captain stood up abruptly and roared, "You must contact them. This is definitely an enemy attack." At this time, what else could the captain not understand? This was definitely an enemy attack. Now, he could only hope that they could report this information to the ground forces in time, otherwise... the captain's body trembled at this thought and cold sweat broke out all over his body.
Once the enemy's sneak attack succeeded, the First Men's Military Academy on planet Newline below... would definitely be finished!
"The other side is not replying. Captain, what do we do now?" At this time, the communicator trying to contact the enemy fleet had failed after many attempts. He asked the captain anxiously.
A thought flashed through the captain's mind. Gritting his teeth, he ordered decisively, "Shift starship immediately. Change angle to 90 degrees and escape at high speed!"
With this order, all the technical operators in the main control room began to operate nervously. The patrol ship made a beautiful 90 degrees turn in space, rapidly escaping towards the starry skies to the west. The second in command beside the captain could not help but ask softly, "Captain, is this okay?" The most severe punishment from the Federation's military was to flee without a fight. If the military found out, the captain would definitely be sent to the military court.
"The enemy has nineteen warships. Even if we charge in, we will only be sending ourselves to our deaths. I can't let my brothers die for nothing. Besides, we have a more important mission, and that is to successfully contact the ground forces and inform them of the situation here. To do all this, we have to survive! Even if I'm sent to military court for this, I won't regret it. " The captain's gaze was resolute as he continued, "Deputy, if planet Newline is successfully ambushed, all the instructors and students of the First Men's Military Academy located on the planet will definitely be wiped out..."
"No matter which faction the other party is from, their goal is probably to make our Federation stop passing on our legacy. The teachers of the First Men's Military Academy are the cream of the crop in our entire Federation. We will definitely not let them succeed," said the captain resolutely.
At this time, the fleet of nineteen warships had also discovered the fleeing patrol ship of the Federation. The A.I. of the warship began to issue a warning. "A patrol ship has been spotted ahead. Target locked. Target has escaped. Please issue new orders. Pursue or give up?"
When the commander-in-chief of the fleet received this news, he decisively ordered, "Give up the chase. Act according to the original plan." Did that patrol ship think it was safe just because it had fled to the west? A cold smirk appeared on the commander-in-chief's lips, clearly tinged with a trace of mockery.
Sure enough, from two other directions, two other fleets suddenly appeared. One fleet had nine warships, while the other had thirteen warships. Although the Federation's patrol ship had made an emergency turn, it still dove headfirst into the midst of the fleet of thirteen warships.
"Godd * mmit, fire the cannons!" Seeing that he had already fallen into the enemy's tight encirclement, the captain knew that they no longer had a chance. Viciousness flashed through his eyes — even if he had to die, he would drag one of them down with him.
The main cannons of the patrol ship finally opened fire. The cannons left behind a dazzling trail as they streaked across the starry space, directly hitting one of the warships. Faced with the sudden attack of the patrol ship, that warship started to evade. The cannons brushed past the hull of the ship, causing the originally fluorescent beam shield to instantly dim …
As long as they could fire one more time, they might really be able to deal a terrifying blow to the enemy. Unfortunately, the patrol ship didn't have the chance to fire a second time because the enemy fleet didn't give it another chance. The enemy fired a volley of cannons. Faced with this overwhelming barrage of cannons, even if the patrol ship tried its best to evade, its beam shield wouldn't be able to withstand it. With a boom, the hull of the ship was hit by several cannons and instantly exploded. The entire hull of the ship was quickly engulfed by towering flames, like a blossoming firework. In the blink of an eye, it became a ruin in the starry space.
"Report, we've taken care of one patrol ship in the east!" The fleet from the east immediately sent a battle report to the main fleet. Soon after, the warship in the west also sent a battle report. The patrol ship that had tried to escape earlier had been destroyed by them. Added to the patrol ship originally patrolling in the west, they had destroyed a total of two patrol ships.
The commander-in-chief received the battle reports from the two fleets and nodded in satisfaction, saying, "The three patrol ships mentioned in the report have all been destroyed. All the surrounding satellites have also lost their signals. It's time to move on to the next step of the operation. Now, I give the order for Operation Chick Extermination to officially begin!"
Following the commander-in-chief's order, the three fleets merged into one large fleet. All the warships came to a stop in the air above the actual location of the First Men's Military Academy on planet Newline and began to open their launch ports. Very quickly, from the launch ports, countless black circular metal objects rapidly descended towards planet Newline …
"This technology provided by the Twilight Empire is really not bad. It can avoid the detection of ground radars. Plus, it's deep into the night now. By the time the anti-air forces on the ground discover us, our people will have already landed successfully. Next, it'll depend on each other's combat strength." The commander-in-chief watched as these circular metal objects covered the entire sky above the First Men's Military Academy like spring rain, and could not help but reveal a satisfied smile.
"Yes, General. This operation will definitely teach the Huaxians a bloody lesson!" The adjutant beside him replied coldly, hatred and bloodlust flashing through his eyes. The blood of the Kaiser Empire would definitely not be spilled in vain!
"Boss, wake up! Boss, wake up! " Ling Lan woke up with a start. She did not open her eyes, still in a state of deep sleep, but her spiritual power was instantly activated. She immediately sensed the situation in the room and found that everything was normal and there was no danger. Only then did she ask in her mindspace, "Little Four, what's the matter?"
"I suddenly lost contact with all the satellites around the planet just now. This is very abnormal." Little Four quickly reported the situation to Ling Lan.
"You can't contact them again?" Ling Lan was shocked at this news.
"I can't contact them anymore. Right now, I've already turned on all the ground radars, as well as all the surveillance equipment in the military academy... so far, I haven't found anything out of the ordinary, but I keep feeling that something is very wrong, as if danger is about to descend." Little Four replied nervously, "I found a similar case in the database of the military academy mainframe. It's very likely that it's an information war from an enemy nation..."
"Sealing off our eyes, so we know nothing about the situation outside. Could it be that they want to launch a sneak attack?" Ling Lan's brow furrowed. She could not help but think about the incident at the Swift Dragon base. Could it be related to that incident? Could it be that she had exposed herself somewhere and the enemy had discovered her?
Hearing Ling Lan's words, Little Four's eyes lit up and he nodded vehemently, saying, "That's right, that's right. Their goal is very likely to be a sneak attack!"
Ling Lan instantly came to a decision. She instructed Little Four, "Little Four, report to me immediately if there are any new developments. Pay special attention to the situation in the sky. You haven't forgotten what happened six years ago, right?" Ling Lan could not help but recall what had happened back on planet Demonbeast. They had also been successfully attacked by the Twilight Empire.
Ling Lan believed this because the First Men's Military Academy was located here. The ground forces had always kept a tight watch on the ground — it was impossible for the enemy nation to successfully infiltrate the academy with a large force. Furthermore, the enemy had used such a large amount of resources to completely seal off all signals. This meant that their sneak attack this time was no small matter. Since infiltration on the ground was impossible, it was very likely that they would come directly from the sky. This was also why Ling Lan had specially instructed Little Four to pay attention to the sky.
After giving her instructions to Little Four, Ling Lan abruptly opened her eyes. With a push of her right hand, she leapt off the bed. She quickly put on her uniform and opened the door, arriving at the room closest to her in a few steps.
Ling Lan did not choose to knock politely on the door, but instead gave it a fierce kick.
"Bam!" With a loud bang, Ling Lan kicked the door open, and the door flew into the room with this powerful force.
With a "bam", the door was smashed into pieces by the force halfway through its flight. Immediately after, a burst of force burst out, sending the broken shards flying away.
The first thing that appeared before Ling Lan's eyes was a fist. She saw the person on the bed abruptly flip over to land on the ground. Zilong, who was half-naked and only wearing a pair of underwear, had one hand on the ground. He was like a cheetah, ready to throw out a punch as long as he saw an opportunity.
Ling Lan glanced calmly at Zilong's strong and powerful body, as well as his strong muscles. Suppressing the envy in her heart, she said coldly, "Enemy attack. Prepare for battle!" This kind of strong physique was something that she would definitely not be able to have in this lifetime, Ling Lan thought regretfully.
Zilong had originally been nervous after waking up, but when he saw that the person standing at the door was his boss, he instantly relaxed. However, when he heard his boss's words, he became nervous again. He stood up abruptly, picked up the uniform hanging on the clothes rack beside the bed, and quickly put it on. He immediately caught up to Ling Lan and asked anxiously, "Boss, what happened?"
