Chapter Volume 3 77_ABO Cadets

Chapter 077. War

 The next day at eight o''clock in the morning, Rosen led the Glory Legion to set off from Cepheus as per schedule. After departing from Cepheus Gxy, Rosen immediately gave an order to the entire regiment to make four consecutive space jumps— directly jumping near the Isville Gxy. 

 The distance between the Cepheus Gxy and the Isville Gxy is very far. If you were to slowly navigate along the space channel of the universe, it''s estimated that it will take more than half a month to be able to arrive. Such a thing would be quite likely to raise the Legions of the Federation''s guard. 

 Although this method of this space jumping is dangerous, it, however, has undoubtedly greatly cut down their travel time. 

 They can suddenly unleash an attack by speedily jumping to target gxies, leaving the Federation''s Legions unprepared. 

 Before starting the campaign, Rosen had already reviewed the cosmic star as repeatedly and discussed with several of the high-ranking military officers under his subordination to draw up a navigation route— the endpoint of the Glory Legion''s jumps happened to be in an area right near the Cosmic Space Station on the outer edge of the Isville Gxy. That ce is the only way to enter Naomi Star, it''s just as important as a person''s throat. 

 So long as they upy that space stronghold, the Greedy Wolf Legion cannot obtain timely assistance, and dealing with them will be just like child''s y.

 Rosen has fought with the Federation''s Legions hand to hand several times over the years. He knows their military strength and their usualbat practices inside and out. As the Empire''s Undefeated God of War, Rosen has never fought an uncertain battle. Each step of the n for this uing surprise attack on Naomi Star has gone through repeated considerations and verifications from strategy formtion to route calction, it was nearly wless. Rosen is also full of confidence for this uing surprise attack. 

 At nine o''clock in the evening, arge number of the Glory Legion''s Vanguard Units sessfully jumped to the destination. From within themand room where Rosen was located, it then echoed with the information sent over from the Vanguard Reconnaissance Unit: "Marshal! This is the Vanguard Reconnaissance Warship C-11, no unusual space alterations were detected within a range epassing 3 light-years and no traces of the Federation''s enemy troops were found. The troops stationed at the space station are tentatively estimated to be three battalions!" 

 Rosen nodded and firmly waved his hand, "Move out!" 

 Under thismand, the Glory Legion''smand carrier and arge number of warships executed a space jump in unison, the surrounding space in the universe suddenly appeared to be torn and distorted. The floating dust in the universe was carried up by this airflow with a violent whirlwind. 

 ck warships by the tens of thousands were thonged together like a densely packed swarm of bees. Located in the center was the Glory Legion''smand carrier, the red aureole rapidly spread out around it, lighting up the entire night sky like a dazzling me! 

 Three of the Vanguard Unit''s light-energy cannons dragged long trails of white light behind them and attacked the Cosmic Space Station with lightning speed! 

 Boom—! 

 The mes of the explosion were like resplendent fireworks in full bloom at night. The space station abruptly rang out an ear-piercing rm. Then, five consecutive electromaic interference bombs exploded one after another and themunication line of the entire space station was immediately cut off. The surroundings suddenly gave off a ck smoke! 

 In the darkness of the sky, the pure ck warships neatly dispersed and encircled the space station at the fastest possible speed. The red indicator lights on the warships emitted the same frightening radiance as the eyes of a hunter in the night. 

 In just three short minutes, the Glory Legionpletely upied Naomi Star''s space station.

 However, right at this moment, the sound of a deafening explosion suddenly came from the Legion far behind the front line, and three unmanned reconnaissance warships were suddenly blown into pieces! Then, arge number of golden warships proceeded to execute space jump out from the rear of the Glory Legion like flowing water. At the same time, thousands of silver-white warships orderly flew over from the direction of Naomi Star! 

 The Glory Legion that had originally surrounded the space station was instead suddenly surrounded by two of the Federation''s major legions! 

 —The Greedy Wolf Legion is marked by the wolf-shaped totems on their silver warships and the Falcon Legion is marked by the falcon-shaped designs on their golden warships. The two main forces of the Federation are grouped together like they had been prepared long ago. One after the other, they formed a pincer attack against the Glory Legion! 

 Rosen faintly pursed his brows. 

 He suddenly recalled that in the military campaign 19 years ago where Ling Yu led his troops to form a surprise attack against Naomi Star, there was also an unexpected ambush from the Greedy Wolf Legion. It was as if the opposing side had received wind of the attack and was prepared well in advance. 

 This time, he led his own troops out. Not only was it highly secretive, but it was also suddenly decided to make four consecutive space jumps to reach Naomi Star within a single day— why does the opposing side still appear to be just as well-prepared as before? 

 A traitor in the military.....? 

 This idea that swept through his mind in a sh was then interrupted by the loud bang of a mech exploding in the distance! 

 At the same time, the Glory''smand carrier received amunication request from the Federation, Rosen''s eyebrows wrinkled and he switched hismunicator on. He then saw a familiar face disyed on the screen— the man had handsome looks. He was dressed in a pure white military uniform from head to toe with a touch of a coquettish smile on the corners of his lips. He was leisurely sat in hismand chair and he politely smiles at Rosen: "My dear Rosen, we meet yet again." 

 —this man is the head of the Federation''s Greedy Wolf Legion, known as the Crafty Demon, General dimir. 

 dimir slightly raised his chin up, his prating gaze staring straight at Rosen''s eyes, saying word by word: "It''s truly a pity that today will be the day of your death. You will soon go down and be buried next to your Omega. Doesn''t that make you a bit happy if you think of it this way?" 

 Rosen looked at him coldly, "Don''t get in a cheerful mood so quickly." 

 He then firmly cut off themunicator after he finished his words.

 Rosen calmly observed the surrounding situation and nonchntly issued an order in the microphone of the Commander''s dedicated line: "The 6th Division and the 7th Division are changing directions and individually attack the left and right wings of the Falcon Legion! The Vanguard Unit will break out of the enclosure in two routes! The 9th Division will be behind me and face the enemy head-on!" 

 The Deputy Commander, Lieutenant General Victor, immediately advised against it: "Marshal, this is too dangerous, you don''t need to personally......" 

 Rosen held out his hand to put a stop to his dissuasion, he said in a low voice: "Open themand carrier hatch door at once— ck Dragon, go!" 

 "Understood!" ck Dragon who heard it''s Master''s summons, immediately came out from the space button and brought Rosen out from the hatch door of the Glorymand carrier and rose into the air! 

 The ck mech''s formunches into its fullest form in the boundless cosmos. The shining golden pupils of its eyes glisten and its sheer size gives off a terrifying pressure. The highest level attacking system in the mech is immediately activated and ck Dragon''s tail suddenlyshes out. In its desire to mount a sneak attack, it directly smashes the side of a warship into pieces. At the same time, three light bombs are shot out from its mouth, hurling towards the enemy with a beautifully arched trajectory at the Federation''s Greedy Wolf Legion—

 *** 

 Naomi Star''s Underground Military Base, inside the headmanding room. 

 Ling Yu stood in front of themanding podium, his gaze was tightly locked on the monitoring image inside the holographic screen. The look of the young General''s face was very cold. Although his facial expression was undisturbed, the palm of his hand, which was being held in a light grip, however, could reveal the trace of worry at the bottom of his heart. 

 In the screen, the shrunken image is the real-time image projection of the universe. The densely packed small ck dots are the Empire''s Glory Legion, and the small golden dots suddenly appearing in the rear are evidently the Federation''s Falcon Legion. 

 The Falcon Legionunched a sudden attack, and arge amount of the unmanned reconnaissance craft at the rear of the Glory Legion was blown into pieces. 

 Looking at the rising fires of war in the screen, Ling Yu''s eyebrows faintly wrinkled, and he gently clenched his hands to keep his mind calm—

 Rosen was on the Glory''smand carrier, although he unexpectedly encountered the Federation''s Falcon Legion''s sneak attack from the rear, with hismanding level, there should be no problem making it through after ten minutes.

 At this moment, an officer''s voice suddenly came from within themand room: "General, the reconnaissance team hase to report that therge armed forces of the Greedy Wolf Legion have already set off for the space station!" 

 Ling Yu''s eyes lit up and he immediately opened his mouth to say: "Prepare Air-Guided Missle #1— " 

 In a certain hidden forest of Naomi Star, a huge crack suddenly split open in the uncultivatednd. The roaring was as deafening as an earthquake. The enormous ck muzzle of a cannon slowly rose from the gap as if it were suddenly sent up from the ground. 

 Ling Yu sternly said: "Fire!" 

 Boom—! 

 A guided missile breaks through the atmosphere approaching the speed of light, producing dazzling sparks all along the way! 

 The navigation route of the air-guided missile was extremely precise. It immediately exploded when it reached the center of the Greedy Wolf Legion. The Greedy Wolf Legion waspletely caught off guard by theunch of the surface-to-air missile striking their center! They only saw a widely expanding ze rising from the sky, the mech fragments and the wreckage of the warships scattered everywhere in all directions, and the cosmos surrounding Naomi Star suddenly became the most horrifying cemetery! 

 Ling Yu paused and raised his hand decisively, "Prepare Air-Guided Missile #3—" 

 *** 

 Rosen suddenly became stunned. 

 He piloted ck Dragon to lead the 9th Division of the Glory Legion to directly face the Greedy Wolf Legion. Both sides were fighting fiercely. Unexpectedly, arge fire abruptly broke out in the rear of the Greedy Wolf Legion. A loud "boom" was heard and arge number of warships were blown up into ashes. The wreckage and fragments floating in the universe were scattered in all directions, making the entire field of view filled with smoke! 

 Such frightening firepower cannot be caused by just an ordinary light energy bomb, rather, only an enormous grounded weapon that uses "tons" as the unit of measure for its weight can possess such formidable power...... 

 Was an air-guided missileunched from the surface of Naomi Star? 

 Rosen''s heart suddenly grew full of doubts. 

 Is there a friendly force on Naomi Star? Or is there a mutiny breaking out from within the Greedy Wolf Legion? 

 In any case, now is the best opportunity to break through the siege—

 Rosen no longer hesitated and seized the opportunity to disrupt the formation of the Greedy Wolf Legion and immediately issued the highest order: "The Vanguard Units will join together right away, follow the 9th Division and assault the front!" 

 "Understood! Marshal!" 

 The Vanguard Units that had originally been scattered in order to attract enemy fire immediately neatly merged together in half a minute, condensing together into a terrifying force. Following under the lead of ck Dragon and the 9th Division, they broke straight through the Greedy Wolf Legion''s line of defense! 

 Boom—! 

 There was another loud sound, the rear of the Wolf Corps was once again attacked by an air-guided missile! 

 The violent sting sounds never stop and the whole Greedy Wolf Legion was torn apart by the explosions. Along with the Vanguard Units and the 9th Division of the Glory Legion directly breaking out of the siege led by Rosen on top of that, the Greedy Wolf Legion was nearly defeated in an instant. 

 Just at this moment, a trembling voice suddenly echoed in themand hold of the Greedy Wolf Legion''smand carrier: "General, the Federation''s Naomi Star military base has suddenly encountered a sneak attack from unidentified troops! Requesting for emergency backup! Requesting for emergency%&#￥%......" 

 Themunication line was disrupted and the remaining words all turned into an ear-piercing noise. 

 dimir narrowly squinted his eyes. 

 He originally wanted to cooperate with the Falcon Legion to make the Empire''s Glory Legion suffer aplete annihtion here. He didn''t expect that at the location of his own encampment— on Naomi Star, suddenly began tounch air-guided missiles, disrupting the Greedy Wolf Legion''s entire n, and even his own main military base had been upied by people. 

 Obviously, this is what those "unknown troops" had nned well beforehand! Taking advantage of the gap between the Greedy Wolf Legion leaving their base to sort out the Glory Legion, they quickly upied the Federation''s military base situated on Naomi Star. 

 —are the unknown troopsing from Naomi Star? 

 —could it be a hidden chess piece that the Empire secretly nted here? 

 —who could it be? 

 The fires of war continued to spread and another air-guided missile came over and exploded. dimir had no time to finely and particrly think it over. He immediately ordered: "All units of the Greedy Wolf Legion, immediately retreat!" 

 The Falcon Legion also rather tacitly pulled back at the same time.

 Clearly, those who were originally thought to be hunting instead became the prey by people''s schemes. 

 The two heads of the legions connected theirmunicators to each other, the awareness of being schemed against was very unpleasant. General Chris''splexion of the Falcon Legion was very ugly and he coldly spoke: "dimir, you asked me to help clean up the Glory Legion. What is going on now, why did Naomi Star over there suddenlyunch an attack on us?! Isn''t Naomi Star your encampment?"

 dimir shrugged his shoulders: "There seems to be an underground force on Naomi Star. I have always been investigating this for all these years but to no avail. Now it seems...... that not only must there be an Imperial force, but it is also a mysterious force that even the Emperor''s XX Department isn''t aware of— temporarily leaving this aside, isn''t it also too shameful for us to just withdraw like this, wouldn''t it be better to drag someone down with us?" 

 General Chris knit his brows and said: "What do you want to do?" 

 dimir smiled, "Up ahead is the entrance to a cosmic wormhole, it is said that ce...... hasn''t been too awfully stable recently." 

 Chris expressed his understanding with a nod of his head. 

 The two simultaneously summoned their respective S-ss mechs rather well-coordinatedly, with one on the left and one on the right, they closed in on ck Dragon! 

 The distance between the three mechs was really too close forfort and the bombardment range of the light cannons was also toorge. It is very likely that one single st may very likely cause the three mechs to be simultaneously blown up, therein unavoidably injuring their own Generals. Both sides of the Legions will not dare to act blindly without thinking. In the cosmos, being met with the three mechs of gold, silver, and ck gathered together in a brawl, the ces where the three gigantic dragons passed through, arge number of fragments and debris were swept up just like a cosmic vortex that made people feel intimidated at first nce! 

 *** 

 Naomi Star, the headmand room of the underground base. 

 The sound of the young soldier''s clear and bright voice came through themunicator: "Reporting to General, our army has already sessfully upied the Federation''s military base!" 

 Themand room suddenly rang with burst into cheers and General Ling Yu who had always previously looked cold and indifferent finally raised the corner of his lips slightly upwards too, saying: "Work hard, act ording to n, don''t damage the base equipment." 

 The young soldier respectfully gave a standard military salute in a ce unseen to the General, "Understood! General!"

 Right then, arge gold and silver dot suddenly appeared on the monitoring screen in front of him. 

 Ling Yu was startled, "What is this all about?" 

 The Deputy Commander, Brigadier General Ted, standing on his right-hand side, answered in a low voice: "General, this should be the two S-ss mechs summoned forth by the Federation''s two Generals...... They still haven''t retreated, what do they want to do?" 

 The base of the Greedy Wolf Legion has been upied. On the surface of Naomi Star, they were constantlyunching air-guided missiles. Many of the Greedy Wolf and Falcon Legion''s warships have suffered damage. With damir''s intelligence, he should have retreated as quickly as he could after being aware that he had fallen into a trap. He suddenly summoned his S-ss mech out and yet it was impossible to turn the tide only relying on the strength of two mechs—

 What is it that they want to do in the end? 

 Ling Yu frowned and carefully fixed his attention to the screen. 

 Just then, he suddenly saw what seemed to be an additional ck dot surrounded by the gold and silver mechs. 

 Is that Rosen? 

 The direction the three mechs are moving at high-speeds is...... 

 Isville''s cosmic wormhole! 

 Ling Yu''s heart suddenly skipped a beat, "Not good!" 

 As if receiving an induction signal, the ne space button that was worn around his neck also lit up at the same time. 

 Ling Yu immediately opened the exit of the underground base and simultaneously ordered: "Ted, I am going to provide the Marshal with aid. I am leaving you in charge of the follow-upmanding tasks here! Use the Emperor XX Department''s password to connect to the Glory''smand carrier and get the Glory Legion to provide support to Naomi Star as soon as possible!" 

 Brigadier General Ted immediately saluted deferentially and said: "Understood, General!" 

 Ling Yu summoned the ck Dragon replica out and broke directly through the atmosphere of Naomi Star and flew towards the direction of Cosmic Space Station where the fires of war reached the sky—

 *** 

 Isville Gxy''s outermost cosmic space station had already beenpletely sted into ruins by the fighting of the two sides, and arge number of mech and warship fragments are drifting along in the universe. Following the retreat of the Greedy Wolf Legion and the Falcon Legion, the Glory Legion was reorganized under themand of Lieutenant General Victor.

 Ling Yu piloted the ck Dragon replica and flew right over the heads of the Glory Legion. 

 In themand carrier cabin, everyone looked at the veryrge ck dragon fairly close by and couldn''t help bute to a stop in shock. The Marshal was undoubtedly still in nothing less than a stalemate with two of the Federation''s mechs up ahead. How could a mech that looks just like ck Dragon pass by again? 

 Victor also feelspletely puzzled, he frowns and carefully looks outside of the porthole—

 Not too far away, the gold, silver and ck mechs are right in the middle of a fierce battle, ck Dragon is fighting one against two enemies and has long since been ced in a disadvantageous position. Scars are riddled on its body, but he is simply unable to break out from the two mech''s pincer attack from his left and right. The two mechs were pinched together, and Rosen was pinned down by the two mechs and was gradually drawn in the direction of the cosmic wormhole. 

 As the entrance to the wormhole grew closer, the gold and silver mechs abruptly changed their directions in an unspoken agreement. Acting in concert, they immediately wrapped their tails around ck Dragon, and at the same time, physically exerted themselves to push the ck mech directly into the entrance of Isville Universe''s wormhole! 

 As soon as Ling Yu hurried over, he saw this kind of scene—

 The ck mech was being swallowed bit by bit by the immense vortex of the cosmic wormhole, just like a small insect caught in a spider''s web without any ability to resist. In the face of the frightening force of nature, the mechs made by mankind seem so insignificant and inferior. 

 "Rosen—" 

 Ling Yu''s words didn''t even have the time to make it out of his mouth before he saw ck Dragon sinking into the enormous vortex and disappearing without a trace within the blink of an eye. 

 The heart suddenly fell into a fit of spasms. The vortex forming a dense mass in the universe is like the bloody maw of a man-eating beast stretched wide open like a sacrificial bowl, which appears particrly frightfully sinister in the silent cosmos. 

 Almost subconsciously, Ling Yu issued an order to his mech: "Catch up......"

 The ck Dragon replica was silent for a bit and calmly reported: "Master, within the Isville cosmic wormhole, there will soon be a spatial shock with a magnitude of eight or higher. The energy of these spatial shocks is also going to be tens of times higher than that of aary earthquake. At the moment, entering the cosmic wormhole......" 

 There is only a dead end. 

 While the ck Dragon replica did not say this, he believed that his Master was able to understand it.

 Ling Yu suddenly grew silent. 

 Before the retreat, dimir summoned his mech to carry out a pincer attack on both sides of Rosen. The objective was obviously for this exact reason— the Isville cosmic wormhole has been extremely unstable recently and spatial shocks constantly urred. This kind of energy from cosmic spatial shocks can instantly smash an S-ss mech into pieces. 

 He couldn''t directly destroy the Glory Legion, he could only use these sorts of despicable means to force Rosen into the wormhole andpletely do away with Rosen with the help of the cosmic wormhole...... 

 Ling Yu tightly gripped his hand into a clenched fist, his fingernails nearly drew blood from the palm of his hand. 

 Thest urrence of spatial shocks was thirty minutes ago, Ling Yu did had no way of knowing the next time they would happen. 

 It might have already happened, or it also might be after one minute, ten minutes...... 

 But, no matter what, he can''t look on helplessly and watch Rosen die in front of him. 

 Right at that moment, he suddenly thought of Lin Yuan, the child that belonged to him and Rosen. 

 If he just saw him die and didn''t save him like this, what will he look like in the future...... facing that child? 

 As soon as Ling Yu thought of this, he immediately tightly gripped both of his hands into two fists, he decisively and resolutely said: "Catch up!" 

 ck Dragon was forced to follow it''s Master''s orders, and plunged headfirst into the huge cosmic whirlpool—

 *** 

 Inside the student dormitories of St. Romia Military Academy, Lin Yuan abruptly woke up with a start from his dreams. 

 He once again dreamed of the day his Dad sent him away when he was young. That man spoke in a gentle and soft tone in his ear and quietly said: "Xiao Yuan, I''m sorry, Dad is going to a very far away ce, it is not convenient to take you. After you are by yourself, you must strongly keep on living......" 

 (TN: I''m tired. But damn do I like leaving ya''ll on cliff hangers. Oh, the red g raised in the previous chapter has finallye to fruition! I hope everyone is excited, while it might not be a weekday I still stayed up extrate to finish it! Ling Yu, oh Ling Yu... He still cares about Rosen! He better not die now, talk about terriblete-night thoughts to have... Anyways have fun dangling off this cliff, I''m going to bed!)
