Chapter 461: Chapter 330: Surprise Attack (Five in One)_4

"Hmm!"

"However, before taking over Transfer Star, we need to uproot the enemy’s Space Defense Outposts. These outposts are tough nuts to crack, and the firepower of their fixed weapons is not to be underestimated!"

"Understood!"

"First Squad, you’re responsible for uprooting defense outposts DX-01 and DX-02..."

Vickers issued his orders in a clear and straightforward manner.

Su Ming watched as the bracelet on his wrist popped up a notification; his Third Squad was tasked with uprooting DX-05 and DX-06.

These two space outposts were heavily guarded. According to the data distributed by Vickers, it was estimated that each outpost had four thousand mecha squads and two thousand interstellar fighters.

Most importantly, they also had fixed fortress defense weapons.

"You’ll be responsible for uprooting these outposts, and the Emperor will lead the fleet to crush the Water Snake Army’s fleet and directly attack Transfer Star!"

"Yes!"

"Alright, that concludes the battle meeting. Everyone, go and prepare!"

With a wave of his hand, Vickers issued the direct order.

Su Ming and the others turned to leave, hurrying to the hangar.

...

In the command center of Starshine Fortress.

A purple-haired girl rested her chin in one hand, seated firmly in the command chair, her eyes coldly fixed on the operational screen.

One after another, the operators reported.

"There are 5 minutes and 32 seconds remaining until superluminal flight ends!"

"The Emperor Mother Ship is ready!"

"The Twin Battleships are ready!"

...

Listening to the reports one by one, the purple-haired girl lightly tapped her finger on the armrest, quietly waiting.

The countdown to the end of superluminal flight soon entered the final ten seconds.

"10, 9..."

At this moment, everyone’s hearts lifted.

"0! Superluminal flight ended!"

The operator shouted loudly.

In an instant, the entire fortress shook violently.

The vast starry sky, with countless ripples appearing out of nowhere, followed by the massive Starshine Fortress transitioning out from subspace.

The moment the Starshine Fortress emerged, the central control room’s scanning device—

Whoosh!

Displaying numerous red dots of varying sizes.

One by one, red warning boxes popped up.

"Warning: Dark Star Empire Planet Fortress·Hamms detected."

...

"Deploy!"

The purple-haired girl issued the order with a frigid tone.

"Yes! Opening the dock exit to release the fleet."

"Estimate to complete the operation in fifteen minutes!"

...

Operators busily performed their tasks.

"Report: Dark Star Empire’s patrolling fleet detected, closing in on us!"

Admiral Jone relayed the information.

"Destroy them!"

The purple-haired girl gave the order with detached calm.

"Understood!"

Admiral Jone responded soberly.

In the vast space.

An interstellar fighter, 25 kilometers long, clad in black metal armor, slender and elongate with a black crow emblem painted on it—the Black Thorn, along with swarms of mecha, hurried over.

Inside the command room of the Black Thorn.

An optical imaging device projected the enormous Starshine Fortress.

Tekkas, trembling with his entire hand and overwhelmed with fear, exclaimed.

"My God! The Starshine Fortress! Sound the highest alert immediately, inform Lord Tedra!"

At that moment, they clearly saw the Starshine Fortress, its numerous ports opening, and black cannon barrels moving!

Instantly, the Black Thorn’s operational screens lit up with countless red warning prompts.

"Warning: The Black Thorn is locked on!"

...

Whoosh whoosh!

Beams of light and missiles came raining down!

Soon after Tekkas issued the commands, the Black Thorn was engulfed by the attack, its energy barrier shattered, the entire ship exploding in a massive blast, the man consumed by the searing flames.

Inside the central control room of Starshine Fortress.

Operators reported.

"Target has been eliminated."

"Speeding up the fleet’s detachment."

"The Emperor Mother Ship has completely detached."

...

Hearing this, the purple-haired girl gave her chilling order.

"Relay my command, direct attack on the Dark Star Empire Planet Fortress·Hamms."

"Yes!"

...

Dark Star Empire Planet Fortress·Hamms.

Inside the ballroom.

To gentle music, Tedra was embracing the slender waist of the beautiful Shania, dancing gracefully in the center of the ballroom.

Desado and others stepped aside, watching Tedra and Shania intimately dance.

Shania’s body was pressed close to Tedra’s, her eyes filled with a suggestive look, as if they were about to spin threads.

Tedra greatly enjoyed this pull and tangle.

Snap!

Suddenly, the door to the ballroom was flung open with force.

The music abruptly stopped.

Tedra stopped dancing, letting go of Shania’s waist, and looked towards the door with a gloomy expression.

Desado and others were also very startled and turned to look.

Barging in was a man in a black, heavy Third Generation Exoskeleton Armor, broad shouldered, with a scar crossing his face. He urgently shouted.

"Lord Tedra! Something terrible has happened; the Federation’s troops are on the attack."

"How is that possible? Where did the Federation find the gall to come here? And isn’t the entire Danube Star Sea blockaded? How did their troops get here? No, could they have circled around?"

Tedra, upon hearing the report from his subordinate, suddenly changed his demeanor.

"Unclear!"

"Akzi, which Federation legion is attacking?"

"It seems to be the newly formed Thirteenth Legion."

Akzi quickly replied.

"Ha, a ragtag army dares to attack."

Upon hearing it was a ragtag army, Tedra immediately relaxed.

"But their main weaponry is the Starshine Fortress!"

"You’re sure it’s the Starshine Fortress?"

"Yes!"

"Good, good, good! Coming right to our doorstep, today I shall sink it right here!"

Tedra said with a scoff turned laugh.

At that moment, Prince Desado stepped forward, respectfully addressing Tedra.

"Lord Tedra, I will have the Water Snake Army deployed immediately to lend you support!"
