They learned that the Warhammer Starfleet Union was about to use force against the Starshine Empire.

Zhao Chen then ordered his flagship to head to the Lion King system.

If we were to directly use force against the Warhammer Starfleet Union, the current X-Dragon Legion does not yet possess that capability.

But Zhao Chen had already prepared a backup plan.

Zhao Chen sat in the captain's chair, calming himself down.

He still has a lot of things to deal with.

The first step is to build the technological reserves needed to construct those unclaimed resource star systems.

The most important of these is stargate technology!

Although Zhao Chen possesses a T3 Moon-class stargate, it is not suitable for use in this situation.

The T3 Moon-class stargate is expensive, has limited transport capacity, and takes a long time to build. Its only advantage is that it can transport goods over long distances.

It belongs to the type of stargate deployed on the main lines.

Zhao Chen now needs a branch-type stargate technology that is short-range, highly efficient, and low-cost.

In this way, a stargate network system controlled by the Dragon Legion can be established.

It will bring great benefits, both in terms of current resource extraction needs and long-term development.

Zhao Chen closed his eyes and opened his system page.

【Host: Zhao Chen】

Occupation: Top Starship Engineer

Special attributes: Fleet Luck Bonus, Eye of Insight

System points: 650,000 (Monthly fleet income: 31,000 points)

Mission Points: 430

Number of starships: 5327

Task: Annual task (incomplete)

Warehouse: T5 Hades-class Star Dreadnought, Hades Matrix Module, T4 Paladin-class Heavy Star Missile Frigate, T3 Storm Fortress-class Large Starport Technical Blueprints, T4 Vermilion Bird-class Medium Star Cruiser Technical Blueprints...

This system should provide enough points.

Zhao Chen directly chose the T4 series stargate technology.

This time, he didn't choose the best stargate, but rather the branch stargate with the best cost performance.

Although it belongs to the T4 level, its construction cost is even lower than that of the T3 level Moon-class Stargate.

Soon, Zhao Chen found a suitable stargate technology.

【T4 Traveler-class Medium Stargate】

This star gate perfectly meets Zhao Chen's current needs.

First of all, in terms of construction cost, it only requires 1 billion Star Coins!

It's half the price of a T3-level Moon-class Stargate.

Furthermore, the maximum number of daily passages through the stargate is dozens of times that of the Moon-class stargate, and the construction time is also very short. If it is built by the T3 Furnace-class heavy interplanetary industrial ship, one can be completed in a month!

【Would you like to spend 600,000 system points and 50 mission points to redeem the item 'T4 Traveler-class Medium Stargate'?】

Sure!

【Congratulations on obtaining the 'T4 Traveler-class Medium Stargate' technical blueprint】

【Current system points: 50,000】

【Current mission point: 380】

Zhao Chen opened his eyes, raised his hand to summon several technical coding windows, and edited the technical data of this T4 Voyager-class medium-sized stargate into them.

Several hours later.

After finishing his work, Zhao Chen pointed to the technical folder and looked at his secretary, Lilith, next to him: "You can send this file directly to Nana later."

Tell her this is the stargate technology she needs.

Lilith looked at the Commander with some surprise, looking at this important technology. How could the Commander have mastered such an important technology so quickly?

But considering their commander's past deeds, it doesn't seem like much.

"Have we arrived in the Lion King Galaxy? Where is Chief Ted?" Zhao Chen asked.

“We have arrived, and Chief Ted is boarding the ship.”

"As you instructed, Chief Ted will meet with you and General Charlotte in the conference room," Lilith replied.

"Um."

Zhao Chen stood up and walked towards the conference room.

As Zhao Chen entered the conference room, Charlotte stood up first, followed immediately by Chief Ted, who looked at Zhao Chen with respect.

During his time in the Lion King system, Chief Ted truly witnessed the terrifying power of this Wraith Commander.

I have even greater awe for him.

"Please sit down," Zhao Chen gestured for everyone to sit.

“First of all, I would like to thank Chief Ted’s intelligence personnel for providing us with important information.” Zhao Chen looked at Chief Ted.

Chief Ted said, "This is all thanks to those T3 stealth reconnaissance ships you left in the Warhammer United States. If it weren't for them acting as intermediaries..."

At such a great distance, it would be impossible for intelligence to be transmitted smoothly.

Previously, when Zhao Chen rescued the White Tiger Clan and retreated, he did not bring back all of the T3 Silver Rat-class light interstellar stealth reconnaissance ships, but left a few there to carry out reconnaissance missions.

Chief Ted also relied on these T3 Silver Rat-class light interstellar stealth reconnaissance ships to relay information to the Revolutionary Army.

"Now that Warhammer has taken action, we need to make some arrangements as well."

"Chief Ted, how's your military training going these days?" Zhao Chen asked Chief Ted.

Chief Ted said confidently, "Absolutely no problem. Even if the entire fleet of the Warhammer Starfleet United Clan were in front of me, I would dare to touch them!"

Chief Ted then provided more details. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

"Alright, get ready. I'll arrange for a T4 Radiant-class interplanetary warp ship to send you back to Warhammer within three days."

In addition, I have prepared strategic resources worth 30 billion star coins for you, which should be enough for your combat needs for a period of time.

This time, Charlotte will accompany you and serve as the supreme commander of your legion's fleet.

What she meant was what I meant.

"She can represent me fully on your side!" Zhao Chen looked at Chief Ted: "Please relay these words to the other tribal leaders in your revolutionary army."

Within the revolutionary army, there were not only the White Tiger clan, but also other tribes, and nearly ten influential leaders.

If Chief Ted were to be solely responsible for these matters, Zhao Chen was genuinely worried that he wouldn't be able to maintain order.

Therefore, it is necessary to send someone from the Xiaolong Legion to represent Zhao Chen.

Charlotte would be the most suitable choice.

Although I was somewhat reluctant to send my right-hand man away.

But this is for the sake of the bigger picture.

In the short term, Zhao Chen's side does not have any major battles to fight. Moreover, even if Charlotte is not there, Zhao Chen has many generals who can command the battle.

“Commander...” Charlotte looked at the Commander with some hesitation.

To be honest, she was very reluctant to leave the commander, but on the other hand, there were her people and her father.

It's a really tough decision.

"Then I'll go back and prepare." Chief Ted wisely made up an excuse and left the meeting room.

Only Zhao Chen and Charlotte remained in the conference room.

Charlotte's tail drooped, clearly unhappy.

Zhao Chen stepped forward, stroked Charlotte's head, and smoothed her white fur: "Don't worry about me, go ahead."

In addition, I will arrange three T4 Suzaku-class medium-sized interstellar cruisers to accompany you; you can choose one of them as your flagship.

Remember, no matter what happens there, your safety must be your top priority.

Even if the Warhammer plan fails, I don't care.

I need you to come back safe and sound.

"If anything were to happen to you, even ten Warhammer Starfaring Nations wouldn't be enough to compensate you..."

Zhao Chen's tone was firm.

Suddenly, Charlotte stepped forward and stood on tiptoe.

She bit Zhao Chen's lips.

Zhao Chen's eyes widened.

Oh no... she's bleeding.
