Chapter 1410: Chapter 531: The Might of the Empire’s Strongest (Part 2)

After a long while, Ren Zhong announced the retrieval of the files and then said, "Remember this. When formulating the battle plan, my individual fighting power should be accounted for. But you must not call my name directly, nor accurately describe my combat exchange rate. You can only refer to me by code name."

"My code name is Red Peak, a sharp blade used specifically for breaking the stalemate. You don’t need to consider my identity or the possibility of my death, just request me for combat. However, the highest authority to use this blade is in the hands of Ying Zhenshan."

"In short, everyone, for this battle, I am entrusting myself to you."

After finishing speaking, Ren Zhong immediately left the flagship and went to an unoccupied intelligent armed battleship.

As for the more than fifty commanders, they immediately gathered together to start intense discussions, formulating the rules for how to use the Earl’s blade.

Ying Zhenshan said, "As for the technical issues mentioned by the Earl earlier, we indeed do not need to worry too much. The intelligent combat system will naturally adapt to the situation; we just need to be mentally prepared. But how to utilize the Earl’s force is rather tricky, because we have to keep this in mind, without relying on the brain assistance as before, so during combat command, we must have mutual understanding in our hearts."

Yuan Qinh, with his senior experience, also nodded, "First, one point must be clear. The Earl’s blade cannot be unused, for without using it, we will surely fail. But it cannot be used recklessly, as it absolutely shouldn’t put him in danger. Moreover, I must emphasize, we must never choose to sacrifice the Earl for the fleet’s victory, do not get the priorities reversed."

Ying Zhenshan also nodded in agreement, "Indeed. The Red Blade Clan exists because of the Earl. As long as he is alive, there is always hope. Once he’s gone, it’s all over."

Just as everyone was heatedly discussing about to reach a consensus, Ren Zhong’s angry shout suddenly rang in the meeting room.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Do you somehow still harbor the illusion that even if the fleet is completely destroyed, I can escape alone? My hope of survival lies in one place, and that is to win this battle, completely eliminating all enemies. As for my personal safety, it’s not your concern."

"You still lack understanding of my current state. I command you, do not consider my personal safety when formulating the battle plans. If it must be calculated and measured, then the purpose of preserving this blade of mine can only be for playing an even greater role in the upcoming battles of this campaign. Those who disobey will die."

After saying this, Ren Zhong fell silent again.

Everyone in the meeting room looked at each other.

The Earl rarely gets angry, but when he does, no one is not daunted.

...

Time continued to pass by bit by bit, and in the blink of an eye, another half a year had passed.

A seemingly unguarded "transport fleet" had long since left the main territory of the Nanxiang Star Cluster, forming a straight line array, traversing through space along a winding curve, using the slingshot effect from the gravitational source of a small black hole ahead.

One by one, large ships with distinctly different styles were discreetly lurking in a massive pocket formation right in front.

The command flagship where Fudin Pacquiao and Grue Augustus were located hung in the back of the formation, functioning as an information hub, transmitting vast amounts of intelligence via directional radio waves.

Fudin and Grue were holding a visual meeting with four other commanders of the Five Elder Clan.

Meanwhile, the simplified star map already showed the snake-like formation gradually approaching from the front.

Despite it being a very solemn meeting, it was Grue, the non-military personnel, who spoke first, slightly teasingly, "This Earl Red Blade really thinks of this trip as an outing, not even arranging a combat formation. Does he actually think no one dares to claim his life?"

Fudin, however, shook his head, "We can’t be careless. This only further indicates his complete confidence."

Another leader of the Five Elder Clan actually shared Grue’s view, "What use is confidence when even the Red Blade Clan’s most prized stealth enhancement technology has been broken by us? As for his most relied-upon technologies, like radio, laser, gravity wave, and neutrino communication, we have it all too. Even the Red Blade Clan’s unique chip computer’s underlying framework has been cracked by us. Once the fight breaks out, no one will have these computer aids, relying on the most primitive manpower decision-making, but we only need to strictly execute the plan laid out by the combat system, yet he seems unprepared, and his forces are just one-tenth of ours. Who is really confident?"
