Chapter 147 The Storm Is Coming

With a solemn expression on his face, York stood up.

He waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Order all ships to prepare for battle!"

The fleet can escape, but Ark 1 cannot.

Although Ark 1 has the ability to travel at sublight speed, it cannot travel in subspace.

Once the Blue Demon parasitic warship attacks, Ark 1 will be easily caught up.

There is only one battle now, and he must protect the foundation of the empire no matter what.

At present, the new empire is in ruins. As the first ecological spaceship of the new empire, the importance of Ark 1 is self-evident.

"Notify Governor Odysseus that we need interstellar fighter support and immediately send all interstellar fighters to support the fleet."

With York's order, the ships of the fleet that were originally stationary moved.

The tail engine ignited, and a white faint tail flame was sprayed out.

At the same time, in the Governor's Mansion of Ark 1, Odysseus also received a request from York.

"Okay, pass the order down, the interstellar fighters will attack immediately to support the fleet in combat!"

After saying that, Odysseus stood up.

He came to the window and looked at the city outside, his expression uncertain.

If the fleet was defeated, the Empire's foundation in the S-01888 star system would be destroyed.

And he would also step into death and disappear completely from this world.

The incident happened too suddenly, and the Empire had no time to react at all.

No one would have thought that the Blue Devil's parasitic warships were hidden under the planet.

It was too late to seek support from other places at this time.

At Odysseus's order, the hangar of Ark No. 1 became busy.

In the huge hangar, the soldiers' scoldings continued.

The order to attack was too sudden, causing the personnel left in the hangar to fall into chaos for a while.

Looking at the hangar, what the naked eye can see is a row of neatly arranged Fury-class interceptors and Starhawk bombers.

There were so many of them that there was no end in sight.

Under the command of the mechanical priest, thousands of slaves pushed the magnetic levitation vehicles carrying ammunition to load ammunition into the Fury-class interceptors and Starhawk bombers.

"Take off when ready, quick!"

The rumbling sound of the engine resounded through the hangar.

The Starhawk bombers and Fury-class interceptors in the hangar took off vertically on the spot and flew towards the hangar gate.

This created a busy scene.

Below, the slaves pushed the ammunition carts to load ammunition into the fighters and bombers.

There were fighters and bombers flying overhead.

This was not a normal takeoff procedure.

The normal takeoff procedure was to push the fighter to the exit first and then take off.

But there was no time to worry about that.

In order to get more fighters and bombers out as soon as possible, it was worth taking a little risk.

Even if a fighter crashed in the hangar, it would only fall into the channel.

The flight route in the hangar was carefully designed.

There is a flight passage 100 meters wide, with a flight channel above and an aisle below.

Even if a fighter crashes, it will only fall on the aisle and will not affect the fighters on both sides.

Even if one or two unlucky guys are killed, such a loss is affordable.

Outside, above the plane of the star ring.

The four hangar gates on both sides of the Ark 1 hull are wide open.

One after another, Fury-class interceptors and Starhawk fighters fly out.

Flying towards the direction of the fleet.

The white tail flames that it steadily spews out look like moving starlight from a distance.

At this moment, a Blue Demon parasitic warship broke away from the gravity of the planet and entered orbit.

On one side of its tail, rows of linear engines can be seen, densely arranged.

There is no dazzling ion flame like the Imperial warship, but only blue light.

What is strange is that the Blue Demon parasitic warship did not attack the fleet, but flew straight into the depths of the starry sky.

Before leaving the gravity well of the planet, the space around the Blue Devil parasitic warship was distorted.

The next moment, the shadow of the ship flashed, and the Blue Devil parasitic warship disappeared without a trace.

At the same time, other Blue Devil parasitic warships also broke through the atmosphere and entered orbit.

Like the first Blue Devil parasitic warship that entered orbit, it directly entered the superluminal space.

In the bridge of the fleet's flagship...

"The signal of the Blue Devil parasitic warship has been lost..."

Listening to the report from the technology priest, York's eyes flashed with a trace of doubt.

What's going on?

Why did the Blue Devil parasitic warship leave so inexplicably?

Just now, a Blue Devil parasitic warship was very close to the fleet, but it ignored the existence of the fleet.

It jumped directly into the superluminal space, and seemed to be in a hurry to leave.

Ark No. 1, Governor's Mansion.

"Did the Blue Devil parasitic warship evacuate?"

The news from the fleet made Odysseus feel relieved.

I don't know what happened, but the result is good.

The Blue Devil parasitic warship left, and the foundation of the empire was saved.

However...

His face darkened, and Odysseus looked thoughtful.

Why did the Blue Devil parasitic warship rush to evacuate?

There must be a hidden reason, otherwise, the Blue Devil would not ignore the enemy in front of him.

Thinking of this, Odysseus said to the officer who came to report the fleet news: "Notify the astropath to inform the "king" of the news here."

The officer nodded, turned around and walked away quickly.

Sitting back in his chair, Odysseus looked thoughtful.

He had a hunch that in the future, there would be a series of complex events.

And the core of the event would be related to the Blue Devil.

Thinking of this, Odysseus sighed in his heart.

The universe is so big, why not give the new empire some time to develop.

In just four years, the rebel forces encountered one after another.

The Milky Way is no longer the Milky Way he is familiar with.

The traces left by the empire in the Milky Way seem to have been completely erased.

There is nothing left to prove the existence of the empire.

…

S-01919 star system.

Far Journey, in the hall outside the master bedroom.

The golden subtitles appeared so suddenly that it was unexpected.

In front of the glass wall, Li Meng, who was lying on the recliner, had a slight change of expression.

A trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.

After several years, the mission to eliminate the Blue Devil on the S-01888-1 star was finally completed?

But... what did he do?

He didn't do anything, how could the mission be completed inexplicably?

Could it be that the fleet left behind in the S-01888 star system eliminated the Blue Devil.

As soon as this idea came to mind, Li Meng denied it.

He had issued a death order prohibiting landing on Planet 1, and the Imperial Navy would not disobey his order.

Even if a mining ship accidentally crashed on Planet 1, the Imperial Navy would never attempt to land and rescue it before receiving his response.
