Soon after the remnants of the Valsalrian fleet escaped, the news reached the capital planet. For a moment, the entire Valsalrian Army was shocked!
The rescue fleet had been ambushed. Two-thirds of the fleet had been lost, and the commander had been killed!
The news was like a bolt out of the blue. The entire Valsalrian Army was in a panic. They thought that once the reinforcements arrived, they would be able to stop the Empire's invasion. At the very least, they would be able to delay the arrival of the Holy Arrival Emissaries.
Now, the Valsalrian Army's most powerful fleet was almost completely annihilated, and the remaining warships were almost all damaged. They did not know how long it would take for them to return to the factory for repairs. Even if they were repaired, with only one-third of their fleet, they would not be able to compete with Aurelia's fleet.
In desperation, Aino went to find Velon, who was disguised as Sadira, for the third time.
"Master Sadira, you must save us!" Aino might have been acting before, but this time, he was really at his wit's end.
Unlike the other high-ranking Valsalrians, even if they were defeated and surrendered, they would still be able to maintain their wealth. At most, they would just lose their power. However, Aino was different. Everyone knew that Jiang Fei was the commander of the Empire's army, and Aino's grudge against Jiang Fei had been going on for a long time. He had even sent Jiang Fei to the Tallgeese Advanced Outpost to die. If he fell into Jiang Fei's hands, it was obvious what would happen to him.
That was why anyone in the Valsalrian Army could surrender, except for Aino. That was why he had come to beg the players. The players had been forced into a corner.
"Master Aino, don't worry. I'm also trying to think of a way." Velon was still trying to beat around the bush.
"Your Excellency, please send troops to rescue us!" Aino begged.
"My people are all in the Saar Hu Corridor. If I call them back, there will be nothing that can stop the Empire's Army after they rush out of the Saar Hu Corridor!" Velon said.
"But …" Aino was really panicking now. He also knew that the Saar Hu Corridor could not be lost. Otherwise, even if the crisis brought by Aurelia was resolved, they would fall into the same situation as they were now. Moreover, if the Empire's Army attacked from both sides, they would be even more unable to resist.
"But don't worry, Lord Aino. I won't ignore this. I've already asked for help from the Holy City of the Holy Arrival Emissaries!" Velon gave Aino a glimmer of hope.
"Is that so? Thank you so much! Mr. Ambassador, when will the Holy City's reinforcements arrive? "Aino asked hurriedly.
"That's hard to say. I'll ask him again later," Velon said. If the 'Open Group' interfered, reinforcements would arrive in a matter of minutes.
"Thank you! Thank you! "Aino thanked him again and again before leaving.
After Aino left, Velon finally sent back the explanation he had prepared. He told Aino that there was a problem with the game. The NPCs on the side of the Empire were unprecedentedly powerful, and the Resistance Army was temporarily unable to hold them back.
After the message was sent back, it really caught the attention of the 'Open Group'. Their 'game' was now very successful and had already attracted a lot of players. Therefore, it was time for them to make money. At this time, Velon's message said that the game was out of balance. If they did not do anything about it, the Empire would win in the end, causing the game to end early. This was not what the 'Open Group' wanted. After all, the longer the game ran, the more money they would make!
Therefore, the 'Open Group' immediately began to discuss how to balance the game. This kind of interference would not cause the Empire to be overly suppressed, causing the Resistance Army to be greatly strengthened, and thus, the Resistance Army to win the game in a short period of time.
As there were many factors that needed to be weighed, the 'Open Group's' attention was completely focused on how to strengthen the Resistance Army without making them too strong. This became the 'Open Group's' focus. They needed to conduct a lot of tests on the frontline battlefield to decide on the final solution.
At this time, Jiang Fei's shuttle had also arrived at the Domini System.
"I'm finally going to enter the other side of the light barrier!" Truth be told, Jiang Fei was very excited. Although Velon had given him a map of the other side of the light barrier, seeing it with his own eyes and seeing it on the map were two different things.
As the distance between the shuttle and the barrier grew shorter, Jiang Fei's heart began to race. Even though Velon had reassured him that he was now an ally, who knew if the security system would act up and fire a shot at him? That would be bad. Even though Jiang Fei's current strength was ungodly, he was still not confident that he could face off against the security spaceships in the 'Player Safe Zone', which had the absolute authority to kill in one shot.
"Spaceships in front, halt!" Less than a hundred light seconds away from the light barrier, a security spaceship blocked Jiang Fei's way.
"Phew …" Although he was blocked, Jiang Fei was relieved. If he was not recognized as an ally by the security spaceships, they would not have stopped him, but shot him down with their cannons.
"Please show me your identification!" The security spaceship sent a message.
"Okay!" Jiang Fei did not waste any time and immediately showed his identity as the Empire's Grand Marshal.
"Confirming identity …"
"Identity confirmed!"
"The Empire's Grand Marshal — Jiang Fei!"
"Identity Level — Extremely High!"
"Access Level — Freedom of movement within the entire zone!"
"Identity confirmed. Permission granted!"
After confirming Jiang Fei's identity, the security spaceship left as if it had never seen Jiang Fei before.
"F * ck! That's a real NPC! " Jiang Fei cursed in his heart. These high-dimensional beings actually treated him, a living being, like an NPC to be slaughtered. This was insane!
After the guard spaceship left, Jiang Fei piloted the shuttle and continued to approach the light barrier. As his identity had been confirmed and he was now the Grand Marshal, a gap opened in the light barrier, allowing him to pass through. Jiang Fei's eyes widened as he looked at Jiang Fei and Jiang Fei.
Swoosh! As soon as he entered the light barrier, Jiang Fei's eyes widened. As the light barrier covered an entire sector, it was a very vast area.
According to Velon's map, this sector was both a safe zone and a beginner's village for the 'players'. There were many simulation of small merchant ships and other 'monsters' here, all to allow the 'players' to adapt to the game.
The core area of the light barrier was a huge space city. Behind this space city was a huge wormhole! Not only was this the place where the 'players' were born, it was also the place that Jiang Fei wanted to visit the most.
