Wasteland's Only King
Chapter 292 - 56: Star River War, Smoke and Flames Rise! Petition to Fight and Submission! Han Ling’s Plan!
Endless Starry Sky.
Within Closter Civilization, Thirteenth Interstellar Fortress.
Three dazzling points of light suddenly appeared on the projection screen in front of Sean Gardner.
[Warning!]
[Warning!!]
[Detected ultra high-spec energy fluctuations!]
[Evaluating...]
[Evaluation failed!]
[Initiate immediate jump to escape this starry sky?]
Super Large Interstellar Fortresses are all equipped with extremely advanced artificial intelligence systems.
At this moment, the fortress AI, upon detecting the three Odin Sky Battleships, instantly provided multiple evacuation plans.
But...
"Escape?"
"Hahahahaha!"
Sean Gardner laughed loudly.
Right now.
Through the porthole, he too saw the three Sky Battleships manifesting from the void on the outer edge of the starry sky.
Honestly, the scale of these battleships is truly enormous, the sense of oppression utterly terrifying.
The Thirteenth Super Large Fortress of Closter Civilization where he stood, seemed rather insignificant in comparison.
"But so what?"
Sean Gardner’s gaze lingered only briefly, then shifted, falling once more on Dawn Fortress, which had just powered through the nebula.
If only Closter Civilization’s three Super Large Fortresses were here, Sean Gardner might indeed have tried to avoid their edge.
But now?
[Beep—]
[Battlefront Alliance contingency activated!]
[Alliance code: ’Hunt’!]
[Joint operations communication established!] 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎
[Carolyn Civilization joined, Destan Civilization joined, South Hullem Civilization joined...]
The crisp notification chimes sounded one after another.
The smile on Sean Gardner’s face only grew deeper.
This mysterious fortress bursting from the nebula and the Odin Battleships, or Carol Fleet for that matter—all, before the battlefront alliance they had already assembled a month ago, amount to nothing but futile resistance.
Within the ’Hunt’ alliance, there are over a hundred Super Large Fortresses, with countless large and medium-sized fortresses besides.
In this starry sky.
Apart from Dawn Fortress and Carol Fleet, every other fortress and fleet here belongs to the ’Hunt’ alliance!
"One hundred, one thousand, ten thousand to one!"
"The advantage is mine!"
Sean Gardner leisurely joined the communications channel.
Within, the other fort commanders from various civilizations were already discussing specifics of the encirclement and operation plans.
So much so that...
On the outer rim of the void.
After the Odin Sky Battleships, the gigantic Star Domain Mother Ship, which appeared soon after, barely drew any of their attention.
Even...
The discussion in the communication channel had already skipped ahead to the topic: how to distribute the spoils after the battle.
...
...
Dawn Fortress, Tower of the Sky.
Yu Jin gazed at the starry sky, while Yin Yao and the others gazed at Yu Jin.
The projection screen suspended in midair had already vanished.
Carol handed over control of all the fortresses, fleets, and mechas under her command to Yu Jin.
But...
Yu Jin refused.
Compared to himself, he trusted Carol’s talent for war command more.
Thus.
Not only did he not take the control, he even handed over the Odin Battleship and Star Domain Mother Ship’s control authority to Carol in return.
"Supreme Lord!"
Inside S-1 Fortress.
Carol’s eyes were flushed red, nearly overwhelmed with emotion, crying out!
She never expected...
That the Lord trusted and valued her so highly!
Under intense emotional impact, Carol absorbed the information about the Odin Battleship and Star Domain Mother Ship from Yu Jin, while drafting the overall war plan at maximum speed.
Interstellar war is nothing like planetary warfare; the scale and timespan are worlds apart.
For Carol,
she not only had to command a victory, but win beautifully, win decisively!
Upon learning that Tang Yunxuan and others were actually close to the Lord, the importance of the five million Blue Star players in her mind soared rapidly.
Reducing battle losses was also something she had to consider.
...
Tower of the Sky.
Yu Jin received Carol’s communication, listened to her war plan briefing and frowned slightly.
Not dissatisfied—just unfamiliar.
War command is a truly foreign domain for him.
Yu Jin is better at pure Value crushing...
But the biggest difference between Star System Wasteland and Planet Wasteland lies precisely here.
No matter how powerful an individual’s might, it is difficult for it to reach a decisive level in vast interstellar war.
Even Tier Eighteen Yu Jin, without Dawn Fortress and the Odin Battleship as trump cards, would find it hard to face alone the alliance of various High-tier Civilization Forces.
Or rather,
in a war of such enormous scale, High-tier Extraordinary Evolvers can survive and reap some results without much trouble.
But trying to win the war alone would be nothing but a fool’s dream.
"President..."
The soft voice from behind broke Yu Jin out of his thoughts.
Yu Jin turned and met Yin Yao’s gaze.
In this moment, she still had traces of tears in her eyes—left by seeing her birth father, Yin Zhenzhong, earlier.
"Yin Yao, requesting to fight!"
Yin Yao’s tone was firmer than ever before.
"For your father?"
Yu Jin smiled faintly.
"No, not just that!"
"But also for the President, for Dawn Fortress, for Blue Star Civilization!"
Yin Yao clenched her fists, attribute energy surged fiercely within her.
"Haha, good!"
Yu Jin nodded in approval.
At the same time.
Chen Gang, Old Cui, Jiang Haichuan, Wang Yunpeng... and the rest of the Dawn Fortress management were all in fighting stances, ready to go.
"Request to fight!"
They shouted in unison.
"Us, too!"
"First time facing a war that’s actually a challenge for Dawn Fortress, there’s no way we’re missing out!"
