Sky-cracking Rider-Chapter 1316 - 1282: Military Operation

The colossal airship's arrival via the special ability "Space Transmission" was anything but silent. The blast wave generated by the ship's instant propulsion was akin to an explosive shockwave, with visible ripples of high-pressure, high-speed air expanding like waves in the sky. Had the airship not maintained its altitude, it could have caused considerable damage to ground structures and personnel.

Thunderous booms erupted continuously, creating an exceptionally terrifying spectacle.

Numerous combat spaceships appeared in the sky over Chapala City, leaving countless people stunned.

Fortunately, they had encountered this once before (a warning shot?), otherwise, a few more episodes and no one would consider Jiu Defense Company as a peer. Such a display of overwhelming military might was downright despicable.

"Lock onto the 'Prehistoric Civilization Guardians' organization and execute a full-scale attack!"

Once the correct target was locked in, Chen Fei's war machine was formally activated. The fully equipped airship battle group was sufficient to cover the entire South Continent of America.

To continuously play tricks like this, if not for my extra vigilance, we could have been played around endlessly by now.

You may know a person's face but not their heart, which is why a smiling tiger is the hardest to guard against.

"The 'Prehistoric Civilization Guardians' organization is secretly transferring!"

The intelligence dealer Kraken was the first to report, with a suspicious list where each object was under secret surveillance, revealing abnormal activities.

The 'Prehistoric Civilization Guardians' organization under surveillance had lost its usual calm, gathering many vehicles, most of which were trucks. A considerable number of individuals were busy entering and exiting various buildings, packing and moving items.

At the same moment an attack was being launched on the stronghold where Chen Fei was located, the headquarters of the 'Prehistoric Civilization Guardians' had already begun its evacuation even earlier.

Truly, their decisiveness is commendable!

Regardless of the success of the attack, the other party would vanish from public sight, henceforth keeping a low profile and remaining hidden.

"A clear sign with no silver here; the so-called 'Prehistoric Civilization Guardians' might not be genuine."

Chen Fei remained skeptical.

The first encounter with the 'Prehistoric Civilization Guardians' was surprisingly courteous and open, and Chen Fei did not hold back, having the Combat Mech Legion search their headquarters, including the semi-public artifact exhibition, the private storage, and hidden vaults for rare treasures, yet found nothing.

The final search results corresponded precisely with the information the organization voluntarily provided, and this kind of unreserved collaboration bewildered Chen Fei and others, leading them not to cast more suspicion or focus on this organization.

Under prolonged scrutiny, no matter how well hidden, the truth will eventually surface.

"Huh?"

Not just the people in the room, but also Kraken, who was on a remote video call on the screen, were shocked, looking at Chen Fei.

If this conjecture were true, then the organization's concealment was extensive, yet it was unclear how many layers they had.

On the surface, they appear to be good people, peel back a layer, and they are obscure, peel again, and they are a small force, continue to peel and reveal a despised political criminal, keep going, and there's a wicked merchant... an infinite nesting doll.

"Don't look at me like that, the world is treacherous, and you must plan for the worst to avoid being caught off guard."

However, Chen Fei estimated that they might have no more than two layers, since each layer requires a great deal of human, material, and financial resources. Having too many layers won't pay off, and it's better to hide properly, saving money and being practical, instead of turning into a complicated mess where no one benefits.

"You've got a point, being cautious rarely ever goes wrong, as even minor characters shouldn't be underestimated. What if they give you a huge surprise?"

Miyoshi Xuesen agreed, having witnessed many big shots falling into traps due to minor tricks, and before Chen Fei's Psi Skill "One Man Army" was synthesized, he had successfully outsmarted a Heavenly Order being.

"It's best to end the fight as quickly as possible."

Kraken was most worried not about prolonged delays creating other variables but rather feared the 'Prehistoric Civilization Guardians' organization's big fish getting away.

After all, they are the local snakes, having the advantage of time, place, and people—at least two-thirds of it. If they abandon everything and find a remote place to hide for several years, or even decades without resurfacing, Chen Fei and others couldn't possibly spend all their time and energy on the South Continent of America.

"Ha! You have no idea of the power I wield; in no more than six hours, all battles will be concluded."

Chen Fei pointed to the health wristband on his left wrist. This band, almost standard for everyone, not only monitors health and daily activities but also acts as a watch to check the time anytime.

The six hours he mentioned were mostly the travel time of various combat units.

The actual combat time after arrival would likely be shorter. If both sides engaged directly, it would take less than an hour for the opponent to be completely wiped out.

Two logistics ships, fully loaded with combat mechs, charged straight at the headquarters of the "Prehistoric Civilization Guardians" organization, escorted by four attack ships. Other branches were each assigned an attack ship and corresponding number of combat mechs.

Allowing the opponent to run for a few hours, unless the "Dimensional Gate" was used, it would be impossible to leave the South Continent of America. This continent, flanked by two oceans, was both a haven away from worldly troubles and a cage in a certain sense.

The armed forces currently exposed by the "Prehistoric Civilization Guardians" organization, even if combined and doubled, couldn't match any single line of attack ships. Moreover, each unit in the airship battle group was equipped with tactical-level, high-power heavy weapons. Under any sovereignty, almost no civilian force could withstand such attacks.

Thanks to the "Sagali" civilization, Chen Fei had an excuse to possess such a powerful armed force.

If not for this extremely threatening alien civilization, the Blue Star sovereignties wouldn't allow a commoner like Chen Fei to create a "One Man Army." With the "Sagali" civilization gone, Chen Fei would be the threat, which he probably understood very well himself.

However, the "Sagali" civilization likely wouldn't be a foe Chen Fei could resolve within his lifetime, so he didn't have many reservations. If not for his family and future generations, he wouldn't care about the consequences.

The corresponding combat forces have already been deployed, and the destination remained under close surveillance. Some tracking devices were even used to monitor transferred personnel and materials.

During the wait, the Blue Star Global Joint Defense Committee Headquarters on Socotra Island reported that the grand figure responsible for illegally taking Longinus from the Africa Continent had been found.

In an obscure little village under Gaul Sovereignty on the Europa Continent, a whole family of about thirty, including trusted aides, were scattered in several farmhouses, all dead and neat, with no injuries, no signs of poisoning, and doubtful causes of death.

More importantly, Longinus, which they secretly took away, was nowhere to be found. Yet another Longinus had gone missing without a trace.

A conventional space system alchemical storage device without a time rule can't store Longinus, which means it could only be carried in a conventional way. Its length dictates it's not easily carried, at least not in an ordinary family car, nor is it easy to bring aboard civilian aircraft.

Excluding the Longinus that fell into Chen Fei's hands, originally belonging to the Cybertrom entity, the loss of one Longinus from the South Continent of America and one from the Africa Continent was enough to form a pair and establish a secret passage.

However, when the "Dimensional Gate" is activated, the Terra particle disturbance is easily monitored, and shielding Terra particle waves is not simple. Even if such technology existed, sovereignties would safely preserve it and not easily divulge it.

"What a terrible 'Dimensional Gate' management!"

Chen Fei couldn't help but complain again.

What was he fighting for so desperately?

But at this crucial moment, someone wasn't just not helping, but adding chaos.

Even though the combat mech army has gradually stationed at "Dimensional Gates" spread across the Blue Star, each equipped with at least a thousand combat mechs carrying various light and heavy weapons for aerial, ground, water, and space operations, fully armed and keeping a close watch on Longinus, even flies and mosquitoes needed approval to get close.

If these Longinus continued to go missing, the defense of the entire Blue Star civilization would turn into a sieve.

Lord Landon's past life memories might actually come true, prophecy fulfilled, humanity's extinction — nothing could be worse than this.

If possible, Chen Fei wanted to dismantle all the "Dimensional Gates" and throw all the Longinus atop the branches of the "Life Tree." Those who covet them could come get them if capable; he would never grant any interference.

To take anything from the crown of the "Life Tree," even ten Chen Feis, let alone a hundred or a thousand, could never match the opponent. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Heseman Brown linked the events of the two continents losing Longinus, suspiciously saying, "This is not the time for complaints. We must quickly retrieve all the missing Longinus. Could the loss of the Longinus on the Africa Continent be the work of the 'Prehistoric Civilization Guardians' organization again?"

Miyoshi Xuesen pondered and then shook his head directly.

"While there's that possibility, it's not highly likely. The 'Prehistoric Civilization Guardians' organization shouldn't easily extend its claws beyond its normal range. If it were a large international illegal group, it would've been noticed long ago, making it hard to hide deeply. The loss of that Longinus on the Africa Continent was caused by the ruling high levels. Persuading such a major figure isn't an overnight feat."

"The 'Prehistoric Civilization Guardians' don't have that capability."

Daring to brazenly attack one's base, Chen Fei could rule out the opponent having such strength.

An organization capable of playing chess over two continents wouldn't easily choose the wrong opponent.
