"Your guesses about other aspects aren’t far off, but it’s a bit more complicated than that."
"This second generation actually entered the Fourteenth Legion through legitimate ans, only leveraging so background influences along the way for promotion."
"But these are all within the rules; you can’t say there’s a problem if a second generation soldier with a military rank brings along a few trusted guards, even if the guard’s ability surpasses that of the second generation."
The boss suddenly showed an expression as if seeing sothing amusing and said, "Additionally, because he is part of the Fourteenth Legion, but his background isn’t, it led to a rather coincidental situation."
"Do you know who was behind the original issue with Sky Steel?"
Chen Ming imdiately said, "I know."
"Old Wu told before that it was a covert operation by several high-ranking officials within the Battle Zone, including those from the Gallo Star Realm."
"They maintained connections and exchanges of interests with many people through the benefits obtained from Sky Steel."
The boss imdiately confird Chen Ming’s statent, "Exactly, Sky Steel brought them many benefits but also resulted in their information being easily leaked."
"So after the incident with the fleet that was supposed to rescue you, I heard sothing quite early on."
"The second-generation person who took over Bai Quan has a background linked to those who forcibly seized Sinda Corporation’s Sky Steel in the Battle Zone, among others."
Chen Ming’s face suddenly darkened and he said, "The culprit responsible for the destruction of the Mining Space Station, which left in a cryogenic chamber for thirty years, what a small world."
"If that’s the case, the United Fleet never intended to rescue from the start after being taken over by that second generation, so where do their achievents co from?"
"Without my spiritual energy, what can be considered enough of an achievent?"
"Besides, I still have Cheng Xinghe with ; Bai Quan values him greatly, so does the Fourteenth Legion. Killing is equivalent to killing Cheng Xinghe; what are the people taking over thinking?"
"Wait, was their target from the beginning that place? That Kleitka? Just taking a detour to to finish off."
The boss again agreed with Chen Ming’s train of thought, "Exactly, if Kleitka is demolished, the entire Dusk Star Realm would soon beco our territory."
"Achieving territorial expansion is indeed greater than rescuing you, even with Cheng Xinghe."
"A person who hasn’t matured yet may have potential, but that’s not actual capability."
"Had your spiritual energy gained fa within the Empire, had Cheng Xinghe reached a field officer level, maybe they would have had to ponder more before taking action."
"But now, clearly, they don’t need to."
"However, even saying this, the Fourteenth Legion ended up with nothing, and they had a considerable fleet loss."
"I reckon that sothing has to happen on the Fourteenth Legion’s side, it all depends on Bai Quan’s decisiveness and skill."
"So, what are your thoughts now that you know all of this?"
Chen Ming quietly pondered for a while.
The boss did not push for an answer and patiently waited for Chen Ming’s response.
After a while, Chen Ming began, "Not much of a difference."
"If viewed in the grand sche, these actions were carried out by people within the Fourteenth Legion itself, so they must take responsibility and give an explanation."
The boss suddenly recalled sothing and asked, "But hey, aren’t you supposed to be dead? How can they give an explanation?"
Chen Ming’s mind blanked for a mont, realizing that the boss’s guiding questions had led him astray.
He imdiately added, "The Fourteenth Legion failed their mission, essentially abandoning when a cooperation with would have absolutely saved , and then failed."
"So, punishnt within their ranks would be the best explanation for ."
"Their fleet loss is significant; if that can allow them to retreat unscathed, that’s too absurd."
The corners of the boss’s mouth slightly curled up, confirming that Chen Ming hadn’t been blinded by hatred, still possessing the rationality for calm analysis.
Chen Ming continued, "Of course, just punishing them internally isn’t enough; this is their problem for failing the mission."
"On my side, I initially wanted to cooperate with them, and instead, I was attacked by the Ruler; when I’m capable, I’ll have to settle this account myself."
"And as for the Battle Zone, first the Mining Space Station, then this so-called rescue operation that was truly intended to kill, I’ll find a chance to settle these grudges as well."
The boss suddenly added, "The Fourteenth Legion’s main forces are elsewhere now, and what is here is just a small part; your intentions make sense."
"But now you only have three star systems, and you aim for revenge on the high-levels of a Battle Zone covering three star realms?"
The boss’s tone carried no doubt about Chen Ming’s ambitious plan, only earnestly posing a question.
Chen Ming, hearing this, confidently said, "My abilities dictate that I can."
The boss chuckled and said, "Honestly, I really hope to see that day co, it would definitely be interesting."
"Just let know if you need anything; I’m really bored these days."
Chen Ming sensed that the boss had a flair for amusent.
But if he had the boss’s abilities and strength, he might develop similar thoughts when the ti ca.
However, right now, he’s far from that level and still needs to push further.
Not long after Chen Ming’s conversation with the boss ended.
Near the star systems bordering the Gallo Star Realm and two other star realms.
This was where the headquarters of the Battle Zone ford by the three star realms was located.
Inside the vice admiral’s office who had previously issued orders to Zhang Feng.
Besides the vice admiral, there were two others present.
One was the middle-aged woman with a frosty appearance from before, and the other was an ordinary person in casual attire looking to be in their thirties.
Even with her stern face, the middle-aged woman spoke to the man she invited, showing great respect, "Mr. Wang Yu, sorry for the trouble."
The person referred to as Wang Yu nodded, then emitted a wave of spiritual energy.
Imdiately, a virtual image appeared out of thin air before him.
It was none other than Chen Ming who had just finished communicating with the boss.
Through this phantom, the three could only see Chen Ming himself, not his surroundings.
By analyzing Chen Ming’s movents, they deduced he was sitting in a chair, holding sothing in his hands.
Judging by the space between his hands, it seed to be a terminal.
The phantom of Chen Ming suddenly raised his head and waved his right hand in the air.
The next mont, Chen Ming’s phantom completely vanished.
Wang Yu, after completing his task, imdiately took his leave.
At this point, the middle-aged woman turned her head to the vice admiral, asking sarcastically, "Isn’t Chen Ming as good as dead?"
"Ah Tang is still detained to this day, Chen Ming wasn’t killed either, so what’s your use? What use are your subordinates?"
The vice admiral’s face was ashen, but he didn’t rebut, simply reaching for the terminal on the desk.
anwhile.
In the Dusk Star Realm, Chen Ming furrowed his brows tightly.
He had just suddenly felt a sense of being watched and instinctively released a wave of spiritual energy.
The sense of being watched indeed disappeared.
However, the implication behind this sense of being watched made it clear to Chen Ming that sothing bad had happened.
His survival was now likely exposed.
This was definitely the work of a psychic with probing capabilities.
It seed he might need to face directly so troubles he could have postponed by pretending to be dead.
Chen Ming quickly adjusted his mindset.
After all, he should have been prepared for this long ago.
No one faces smooth sailing all the ti; surprises are the norm.
Suddenly, Chen Ming noticed tiny fluctuations of spiritual energy around him; another sense of being watched had been detected by him.
But unlike the previous one, where he was being observed.
Now, soone was attempting to touch him.
This ti, being alert, Chen Ming directly extinguished the erging spiritual energy fluctuation.
Not bad, it was not difficult; with precaution, this kind of surveillance can be completely severed voluntarily.
The unfortunate part was that he didn’t react in ti to the first surveillance, and his being alive was already exposed; extinguishing it now held no aning.
Even if he extinguished the erging spiritual energy fluctuation, the other side at least knew their probing Chen Ming was deed an intervention failure.
It indicates that there’s still a significant chance Chen Ming is alive, and part of the information will inevitably be leaked.
This was unavoidable.
So now the question arises.
Who exactly is spying on him?
