Chapter 114 108 Conquest of Emerald Sea Star (Part 2)

Bai Zhongqi stood on the bridge of the Sacred Falcon, gazing at the boundless sea of stars, his spirit soaring high.

Flanking the Sacred Falcon were two Tai'a Class Frigates; coincidentally, one had been launched the day before, while the other had hit the water just a few hours ago. "Launching" a starship was a term inherited from the nautical era of Iridium Star.

Unlike the launching of seafaring vessels, the launching of a starship essentially meant construction was complete and it was ready for immediate service.

The Tai'a Class Frigate was a well-established model; before traversing from the game, the United Empire of Iridium Star had built no less than a thousand Tai'a Class ships. This kind of versatile frigate, about five hundred meters in length and weighing close to a million tons, was shaped somewhat like a broad and stubby sword.

The names of this class of frigate were all derived from swords, and 'Tai'a' itself was the name of a legendary sword from the ancient myths of Iridium Star.

Since they had changed universes, the names of Iridium Star's ships were reassigned; thus, the lead ship of the Tai'a Class was named the Tai'a, and the second vessel, which had just been launched, was named the Giant Que Number.

Bai Zhongqi hadn't yet managed to provide full crews for these two frigates, haphazardly filling them with bionic humans. Coupled with the existing warship AI aboard both frigates, there was no problem for them to operate in conjunction with the Sacred Falcon.

Forming a small squadron of three ships, Bai Zhongqi still felt a trace of regret. Had he been able to delay one more month, he would have been able to muster a substantial fleet consisting of at least two cruisers, four destroyers, and four frigates.

Of course, given that his potential enemies were still in the late feudal stage of civilization, assembling a massive fleet of starships seemed somewhat pointless.

Bai Zhongqi had no fear of encountering enemies with similar capabilities for interstellar travel; he had already established observatories along with other surveillance and early warning facilities in Earth's orbit. Within a radius of 20 light-years, Iridium Star had not detected any signs of interstellar civilizations.

If there were other intelligent life forms, they could only be primitive civilizations like those of Earth and Emerald Sea Star, which had not yet broken free from their home planet.

Standing beside him was the tall Commander Xu Lanzhou of the Universe Army, the beautiful woman holding her own set of mixed feelings. This wasn't her first distant voyage; she had led ships through the universe and fought valiant battles for years. Yet, this was her first time setting forth under the flag of the Imperial Chancellor.

Xu Lanzhou couldn't help but gaze at Bai Zhongqi's profile; the Chancellor seemed to be contemplating something, exuding a different kind of charisma.

When food also becomes a form of daily welfare and prices can be driven very low, essential foods such as rice, flour, eggs, poultry, meat, milk, vegetables, and so on making up less than one-tenth of total living expenses, naturally allows the citizens of the Star Alliance to enjoy a higher standard of living.

As for the issue of transporting large amounts of food from one galaxy to another, that had always been commonplace for Iridium Star.

Of course, what Bai Zhongqi wanted to do more was to relocate hundreds of millions of people from Country C to Emerald Sea Star and other habitable planets discovered later, and then gradually restore the ecological environment of their homeland, Divine Land.

The thoughts of the Imperial Chancellor were naturally inscrutable to others.

Nan Ma asked again, "What about the Southern and Northern Continents?"

Bai Zhongqi replied, "The footage of the 'Mage' we captured earlier was near a city called Infia on the northern coast of the Southern Continent. This place is one of the colonies established by the Shangduohan Kingdom, a powerful nation of the Northern Continent, on the Southern Continent.

I plan to visit this city first this time to look for traces of mages, and Master Nan Ma, you will accompany us, as you are the only Star Warrior among us." Continue reading on empire

Nan Ma nodded his head, touched his bald head, and said, "I am also very interested in the mages on this planet. I'll accompany His Majesty for a look. Perhaps we'll make some new and interesting discoveries."

Xu Lanzhou, on the other hand, had some reservations and said, "Your Majesty, why don't we simply send out the Marine Corps and the Assault Brigade to strike directly at the nations of the Northern Continent, subdue them, and bring down whatever mages or Star Warriors they have along with them?"

But Xiao Yu jumped in and criticized Xu Lanzhou, "Commander Xu, you are unaware of His Majesty's profound intentions. After all, we have just discovered this planet and many things remain unclear. What His Majesty is doing is adopting a cautious strategy, which is more prudent.

Besides, Iridium Star's military usage has always valued caution, refraining from acting rashly without a full understanding of the enemy. His Majesty's tactics in warfare are truly admirable to me!"

Xu Lanzhou didn't even glance at Xiao Yu. The man was all talk, saying nothing of substance. However, she was also aware that starting a war outright was indeed reckless. Even if she intended to bulldoze through issues, there needed to be corresponding strategies and establishment of bases.

Of course, Bai Zhongqi had already decided to unify Emerald Sea Star, but before that, he needed to grasp enough details, especially regarding those mages who might be Star Warriors.
