Mobius walked quickly through the passageway with a solemn expression. A secretary beside him followed suit. In the past, Mr. President was followed by an entire group of secretaries. Now, due to the limited manpower, even the President of the Federation only had one secretary to dispatch. However, Mobius himself didn't have much of a problem with this. As long as the secretary could fulfill her responsibilities, he didn't care if it was one or a group.
Entering the command room, Geffen, the director of the intelligence division, quickly greeted him and said anxiously beside Mobius, "Mr. President, I'm afraid things are worse than we thought."
"Are you sure it's the Earth Core Excavator?"
"According to the images transmitted by Mr. Horn, we can basically confirm that it's the Earth Core of the Nelm people."
The few of them walked to the big screen, which was reflecting the interior of the Nelm ground base. Horn was in the picture, and in front of him was a tower-like machine. Regular brilliance rose from the machine, and four thick energy transmission tubes extended down from the top of the machine, connecting to the ground around it. On both sides of the screen, data continuously rose. That was the analysis of the machine made by the base's brain.
"What's the situation now?" Mobius asked.
Geffen said in a deep voice, "The attack went smoothly. It won't be long before we can take down this base. Fortunately, we acted in time this time. According to past data, it will only take ten hours for the Nelm people's Earth Core Excavator to open up the extraction channel to the Earth Core. Then, it will be able to continuously extract the energy from the planet's core for its own use. "
Mobius's expression was extremely ugly. The people of Nelm had always used locust-like invasions. They didn't care about the life and death of the invading planet. They would only use the most efficient methods to extract the planet's resources. The Earth Core Excavator was undoubtedly the worst of these methods. This kind of machine could open up a passageway to the planet's core and extract its energy, causing the planet's resources to rapidly deplete. This technology also came from the Kidds. As for the Kidds, they had already developed the technology to directly seize the star core, which was a hundred times more terrifying than the Earth Core Excavator.
Just as Geffen said, this operation was finally timely. Otherwise, if the Nelm people were given time. Within a few months, the Earth's energy would be completely drained. At that time, even if the Nelms were expelled, humanity would only get a dying planet.
"Geffen, how many earth core excavators do you think the people of Nelm will carry?" Mobius suddenly said.
Geffen's expression stiffened and he said, "According to the planets invaded by the Nelm people in the past, every time they invade a planet, they will bring at least three to five excavators …"
"So they have at least two excavators in their hands …" Mobius said, "Inform General Silva immediately and have the Black Wing Legion conduct a full search. We must find the other ground bases of the Nelm people."
On the screen, Horn cut open the excavator with a few slashes, then turned around and left. The image on the big screen changed, and the angle became that of a bird's eye view. A pillar of fire exploded from the ground base of the Nelm people. Then, circles of flames spread out, causing a series of martyr explosions in the base. The result was clear. The base had been successfully razed, but the Nelm people would not only have one ground base. Mobius could even imagine that as long as the Nelm people built a dozen ground bases, it would not be easy to find the remaining core excavators from the many bases.
After leaving the command room, Mobius immediately held a brief video conference. The generals and Marshal Windsor Bellow, who were fighting on the other fronts, all had an unnatural expression on their faces when they heard about the earth core excavator. Mobius looked at the faces on the screen and said in a deep voice, "I have ordered General Silva's Black Wing Legion to conduct a full search. I hope to find other ground bases of the Nelm people as soon as possible so that we can act as soon as possible."
Windsor Bellow's voice sounded in one of the pictures, "Mr. President, we can't keep being so passive. This time, it's an earth core excavator. Who knows what the Nelm people will do next time? "
"What's Marshal Greed's opinion?" Mobius asked in a deep voice.
"Take the initiative to attack." Windsor Bellow stood in a sea of flames, and from time to time, the afterglow of the explosion flashed behind her. She shouted at the screen, "The people of Nelm have come out in full force, and even their emperor has come out. I'm willing to bet that Mo Suo Star's troops are definitely empty. If we can attack Mo Suo at this time, it will definitely cause a huge, even fatal blow to the people of Nelm. "
"Are you going to use Sirius on the interstellar defense line?" Mobius asked.
Windsor Bellow shrugged and said, "I'm afraid that won't do. I've already transferred the main force of Sirius over. If we send out the troops of the interstellar defense line at this time, then our defense line will be empty. Besides, with the small number of troops on the defensive line, I don't think it will have much of an impact on Mo Suo. "
"But it's very difficult for us to spare any extra troops right now, unless …" Mobius frowned and said, "Are you going to transfer the troops from the Garden of Eden?"
"And the Rose Empress!" Windsor Bellow shouted, "Gathering the forces of two trump card legions, plus Melinda, Russen, and the other generals, should be more than enough to attack Mo Suo." We can also seek support from other allies on the defensive line through Adahua Planet. We don't need them to fight. We just need to help us restrain Mo Suo's reinforcements. As long as we attack Mo Suo and let the people of Nelm have a taste of being invaded. "If we can't end the war on our side as soon as possible, then I think Cajasso will have only one choice, right?"
Mobius spat out a mouthful of turbid air. "Then they'll have to withdraw. That's a good idea, although it's a bit risky. You know, the Garden of Eden is currently relying on the spread of death. Drawing them over means that our area of control is very likely to be recaptured by the planet's natives. "
Windsor Bellow shrugged and said, "Now shouldn't be the time to think about such things, Mr. President. If we can't expel the Nelms as soon as possible, then what's the use of preserving the area of control in the Garden of Eden? That little bit of income won't make up for our losses! "
Mobius nodded, "I understand. I'll contact General Russen now."
Garden of Eden, Blood Gate Stronghold.
On the passageway in front of the command room, the officers who were coming and going looked ahead nervously and leaned against the walls on both sides of the passageway. Then, black and silver-gray hair floated past their eyes, and at the same time, the black cloak that looked like black flames floated past their eyes. It was a cloak that symbolized a general. This cloak hung on a delicate body, but the eyes that people looked at this figure were filled with reverence as if they were looking at a god of death.
When this figure walked into the command room, the atmosphere instantly froze. Russen, who had ended his communication with Earth, turned around and looked at the figure. "It's time for us to act, Catherine."
