"I don’t expect the journey to be that smooth. Can you tell us how many tis we need to interrupt the superluminal flight?"
Xia Weiya stretched lazily and said with a light laugh.
"Five tis, with a three-day break each ti."
Elken quickly replied.
"That’s quite a lot of interruptions."
Xia Weiya seed a bit dissatisfied.
"Lady Xia Weiya, it’s like this, the size of Radiant City is just too large. What we’re seeing now is its retracted state; once expanded, it would be even larger, and naturally, its weight will be extrely terrifying. Therefore, the superluminal flight device bears a severe load."
Elken hurriedly explained.
At this mont, Herbert said coldly, "Xia Weiya, are you scared? Since when did we beco so cautious within our own territory? Given the size of such a huge Radiant City, having this speed is quite good."
"Why are you in a hurry, Herbert? I didn’t say this Radiant City wasn’t well built. I know this planet fortress is led by the Skeleton Empire; you just don’t want others to badmouth it, right?"
Xia Weiya smiled in response.
"You!"
Herbert’s face turned slightly angry but he didn’t erupt.
Even though he is the third seat of the Royal Order, Xia Weiya is the fifth seat, yet Xia Weiya truly isn’t intimidated by Herbert.
Because Xia Weiya relies on the Laurel Kingdom, whose national power is also quite formidable.
That’s why even the fourth seat can’t use the pseudo-sixth generation pure chanical cha, Future ssenger, but the fifth seat Xia Weiya can, and she even has two spare fifth-generation biological machines and a fifth-generation chanical machine, showing how wealthy she is.
Goli seed accustod to their discord and smiled, "Alright, we’re all on the sa side, no more arguing!"
"Yes, Lady Goli."
Xia Weiya and the others responded respectfully.

At night, Su Mo lay on the tal bed, yawning as he browsed the Star Ring City forum.
He found the entire forum was exceptionally lively, all discussing the matter of Radiant City.
"I heard Radiant City will beco the second Star Ring City, so wouldn’t that be our chance to get rich?"
"Co on, stop daydreaming. I bet the real estate in Radiant City definitely won’t be cheap."
"Are you all brainless? The big market hasn’t been decided yet, and everyone is scrambling to be the first to try it. If you ask , wait until Radiant City reaches Chenguang Star Sea, see if it can establish itself there before considering developnt. Keep in mind, Chenguang Star Domain isn’t far from the front line; although that star domain is nominally within the Star Ring City’s jurisdiction, in reality, Star Ring City has weak control over that star sea."
"You’re right. I got so insider info, and I heard the forces from Star Ring City in Chenguang Star Sea have taken a hit."
...
Su Mo, quite interested, spoke with Creator·Swallower.
"What do you think?"
"You want to know if Radiant City can successfully establish?"
"Yeah."
"The success rate is high, but don’t think it will be easy. The enemy won’t compromise so easily. Especially the Eternal Sleep Clan, they won’t just watch Radiant City establish. After all, the Star Gate can’t stay open for long, and Radiant City can link the front line with Star Ring City. So you’d better be ntally prepared for battle at any ti."
Creator·Swallower replied in a low voice.
"Got it."
Su Mo replied with a headache.
Just then, Su Mo’s electronic bracelet suddenly popped up with a notification.
"Dear Colonel Su Mo, you have a new email."
Su Mo was montarily stunned; who still uses email nowadays? Isn’t it all about texts and the like?
He instinctively opened the email.
Upon seeing the content inside, Su Mo’s expression was quite complex.
"Dear Colonel Su Mo, I am your exclusive dispatcher, Luo Yue. I’m sorry to bother you so abruptly; you’re not asleep, are you? If I’m disturbing your sleep, please forgive ..."
...
Looking at this thousand-word letter, Su Mo’s head throbbed.
Although he didn’t know what Luo Yue looked like, judging by the extrely humble language of this letter.
He could imagine how anxious and uneasy the other party was when writing to him.
Of course, the main content of this letter was essentially one sentence.
I am your exclusive task dispatcher; what kind of task do you prefer?
Su Mo rubbed his temples and said to Creator·Swallower, "Am I that scary?"
"Do you think any of those at the colonel level are easy to talk to?"
Creator·Swallower replied in a low voice.
"I guess you’re right. So how should I reply to her?"
Su Mo scratched his head and said.
"Decide for yourself."
Creator·Swallower showed no interest.
Su Mo thought for a mont and typed a few words in reply: "I don’t know, let’s talk about it later."
...
At this point, in a cramped room in Radiant City, Luo Yue looked at Su Mo’s reply.
She lay down on the bed as if her breath had stopped, murmuring.
"It’s over. The big boss said he doesn’t know, let’s talk about it later. Is he very dissatisfied with and thinks I didn’t do well? What should I do, what should I do..."
...
Three days later, Radiant City severed its link with Star Ring City.
Amidst countless waves, it set sail toward the distant starry sky.
On the Star-Picking Tower, Icaroya silently watched Radiant City disappear into the distance, her cool expression pondering sothing.
Standing beside her, Crock hesitated for a mont and then spoke.
"This departure of Radiant City will definitely attract most of the hostility. After all, with Radiant City stationed in Chenguang Star Sea, it’s like pointing a sword at the enemy. Is this really okay?"
"So what? And rember my words, our enemy has never been a single target, but everything that stands in our way. The Eternal Sleep Clan blocks us, so they are our enemy; other races blocking us are also our enemies. We won’t stay patient forever, and this action is the beginning of war."
The Icaroya City Lord said coldly.
"Understood."
Crock nodded in agreent.
At that mont, he understood what the City Lord ant—the ti was ripe!
Star Ring City was about to reveal its hand and bare its fangs.
Crock knew more than anyone how difficult it was for Star Ring City to reach this point. Back when he followed the Lord of Icaroya to the Negative Universe, they truly almost ca empty-handed.
Everything Star Ring City has now was built from the ground up by the City Lord and Goli.
The seeds sown with hardships have finally sprouted.
When Radiant City was gone, out of sight.
Icaroya turned her head coldly to Crock and said, "Prepare, you can start working on that plan."
Crock’s expression changed slightly, then he respectfully replied to Icaroya.
"Understood!"
Crock then turned and left.
The entire Star-Picking Tower was now left with only Icaroya, who gazed quietly at the distant starry sky, her expression growing colder.
