“Report: The United Legions from the Six Nations have already entered the Siloke Star Sea from the Danube Star Sea and are now surrounding Transfer Star, no enemy traces found.”
…
Upon hearing this, Keggs snorted coldly.
“It seems that the Federation bunch really did flee.”
“Sir, shall we pursue?”
A subordinate asked hesitantly beside him.
“Don’t pursue, maintain formation and head towards Hamms Planet Fortress.”
Keggs directly rejected the subordinate’s suggestion; his main objective was to take down the supply line.
“Yes!”
The subordinates in attendance responded solemnly.
Soon, the Star Destroyer Black Death led the fleet to the forefront of Hamms Planet Fortress.
Through the optical imaging device, Keggs closely observed Hamms Planet Fortress.
The entire gigantic planet fortress, with its surface riddled with damage, showed signs of a very fierce battle.
“Lord Keggs, what shall we do next?”
A respectful subordinate beside him asked.
“Order Fei Lu to lead a force into Hamms Planet Fortress to check the situation.”
Keggs issued the order with a frown.
“Yes!”
The attending subordinates replied solemnly.
Following the command, a Fourth Generation cha·Blood Falcon, leading over a thousand chas, flew out from the Star Destroyer Black Death towards Hamms Planet Fortress.
The chas soon entered the fortress through the damaged entrance.
Inside the fortress’s passageway, it was eerily quiet and very dim, with only ergency lights on.
Closely observing the dim entry corridor, one could see many signs of battle, but there were no cha remnants to be seen.
At that mont, they reached a fork, and Fei Lu gave an order with a cold voice.
“Pete, take a team to the supply storage and check it out.”
“Yes!”
Pete imdiately took over a hundred subordinates towards the supply storage.
Fei Lu, on the other hand, led the remaining people towards the central control room.
Before long, Pete and his team arrived at the supply storage first.
The mont they rushed in, the empty supply storage ca into view.
“Damn it!”
Pete swore angrily and imdiately opened the communication channel to report to Fei Lu.
“Sir, the supply storage has been completely looted by the Federation, nothing left behind!”
“I know, bring your n to the central control room for a rendezvous.”
Fei Lu, who was en route to the central control room, replied with a grim voice.
“Alright!”
Pete responded imdiately.
A few minutes later, Fei Lu and others arrived outside the central control room in their chas.
“A team dismounts the chas and follows in; the rest stay back!”
After issuing the order, Fei Lu opened the cockpit and jumped out.
Dozens of subordinates followed suit and jumped down.
Fei Lu led them into the central control room of Hamms Planet Fortress.
Inside, the central control room was deserted, not a soul in sight, and the control panels were also turned off.
Fei Lu activated the communication device of his Fourth Generation nano-armor and connected to the Black Death.
Soon, the communication was successful, and Keggs asked with a deep voice.
“What’s the situation?”
“Sir, the entire Hamms Planet Fortress is deserted, no trace of the Federation found.
And everything has been looted, they didn’t even leave the cha remnants behind,”
Fei Lu reported back, frustrated.
“It looks like the Federation bunch got wind and fled ahead of ti.”
Keggs’ voice ca back heavy.
“So, we’ve co all this way for nothing?”
Fei Lu said, unwilling to let it go.
At that mont, the extinguished central control console suddenly lit up without warning, a holographic projection screen auto-erged, and the lighting system of the central control room suddenly turned on.
Fei Lu and others were startled and turned their heads toward the projection screen.
They saw Celeste’s playful figure erging, smiling as she spoke.
“Hi!
Dear friends, thank you for coming from afar.
I have prepared a welco party just for you.”
“Co on, let’s get excited for the Emperor.”
As Celeste’s voice trailed off, the operation screen instantly popped up a ssage.
“Self-destruct program activated.”
“Starting countdown 60S!”
…
At the sa ti, the entire Hamms Planet Fortress suddenly ca to life, all thrusters at maximum high power output, rushing towards the Black Death fleet.
“No, it’s a trap!”
Fei Lu shouted angrily.
“Retreat, quick, get back!”
Keggs bellowed furiously.
Unfortunately, his command was slightly late.
When the countdown ended that instant, the approaching Hamms Planet Fortress burst into a dazzling sun radiance!
Imdiately, about a dozen of the closer Level 4 ships were engulfed by the explosion.
The entire Black Death also shuddered slightly, and the Energy Barrier showed so fluctuations.
…
After the explosion ended.
Inside the central control room of the Black Death, everyone’s faces were filled with panic; no one had expected the Federation to leave such a trap behind.
In this wave, they had no idea how many people and ships had been lost.
Legion Commander Keggs, with veins bulging on his forehead, slamd his hand on the armrest and stood up, cursing angrily.
“Sneaky bastards!”
…
———————————————–
Inside the central control room of Starshine Fortress.
The purple-haired girl was sitting quietly in the chanical chair when Admiral Ferion approached her and reported with a deep voice.
“We’re almost there.”
Hearing Ferion’s words, the purple-haired girl stood up and issued a cold command.
“Good, relay my orders to summon all officers, head to the war room!”
