Chapter 443: 442, Cao Cao is physically in his camp but his heart is in the Han Dynasty_1

“This…” Manila XIIIth stroked his chin, deep in thought.

Finally, he shook his head, “I think it’s better to not meddle with ‘Evolution’. Firstly, our people can’t leave the Spiritual Spring Eye, so we can’t easily destroy the game server. Secondly, ‘Evolution’ is a world created by the Holy Silver Federation, they probably have other usages, we cannot offend them.”

“Understood, Your Majesty,” Langqi nodded.

Manila took a sip of Leko Bug juice and looked at his supreme commander, “Langqi, have you taken note of Su Yu’s performance today?”

“Of course,” Langqi replied.

Leaning back into the sofa, Manila said earnestly, “Spread the word, all expeditionary force bases are to level up their defenses.”

“Upgrading the small Spring Eye bases will be hard, so we’ll put our resources into the large and giant Spring Eye bases.”

“In two days, I want to see all bases that are large and above be able to withstand an attack from a seventh-order legend. This way, we won’t have to worry about Su Yu’s threat for a long time.”

Langqi kneeled before Manila, his right hand on the ground and head bowed low, “We are at your command.”

“Rise,” Manila changed his sitting position and casually said.

Then he looked at his director of intelligence, “Xi Weng, how is the ‘Gravity Funnel’ plan progressing?”

“Your Majesty, the ‘Gravity Funnel’ plan is progressing smoothly.” The Intelligence Director, Xi Weng, stood up and saluted the emperor, “The ‘Gravity Funnel’ was completed today at 9:46 AM and the completed first phase testing at 3:21 PM, with no abnormalities detected.”

“Excellent!” Manila’s face broke into a satisfied grin before he chugged his second cup of Leko Bug juice, “Send someone to inform Lord Pu Langte in the Arctic about this matter, hurry! Force that Blue Star human to surrender…”

He paused for a moment.

Then he turned towards the young man from Blue Star who was acting as his translator, “What is the Blue Star human in the Arctic called?”

The Blue Star youth quickly bowed, “Your Majesty, he’s called ‘Cao Cao’.”

Manila nodded, turned to the intelligence director Xi Weng, “Tell Lord Pu Langte to hasten Cao Cao’s surrender.”

“Yes, Your Majesty,” Xi Weng promptly responded.

However, Supreme Commander Langqi raised his head, a worried look on his face, “Your Majesty, I have a question.”

“Oh? What is it?” Manila focused on Langqi.

“What if this ‘Cao Cao’ from Blue Star is, as the Blue Star people say, ‘wolves in sheep’s clothing’? What then?”

“If he’s only pretending to surrender and isn’t genuine, he could very likely bite back during the war in the future. Please consider this carefully, Your Majesty!”

Listening to Langqi’s statement, Manila crossed his legs, a knowing smile spread across his face.

“Your concerns had already been considered by Lord Pu Langte and me. Before the war begins we’ll fully exploit his value, leaving him with no choice but to rely on us to survive… Ah, forget it, let’s not talk about it.”

Feeling a bit tired from all the talking, Manila waved his hand, “That’s all for today, meeting’s over!”

“Your Majesty,” The Intelligence Director Xi Weng asked in an attempt to please him, “Su Yu will be broadcasting live tomorrow night, will you be watching?”

“Do you think I’m someone with that much free time?” Manila cast an unhappy glance at him.

“Of course not,” Xi Weng immediately replied, cold sweat started to seep from his forehead.

It seemed like he had failed in his attempt to butter him up.

“Enough!” Manila waved his hand impatiently, “If Su Yu broadcasts live again, just have your intelligence department take a look and report back to me.”

“Yes, Your Majesty!” Xi Weng responded.

…

But at that moment, a sudden beep came from the communicator hanging by Xi Weng’s waist.

Before meeting His Majesty, Xi Weng had already set his communicator to silent mode. Only when something urgent and important happens would his subordinates call a special number that would audibly alert him.

Xi Weng quickly picked up his communicator and looked at the screen.

Upon seeing the information displayed on the communicator, Xi Weng’s formerly ruddy complexion turned a deathly pale. (The skin of standard Skuru people is green, but the faces of the Raging Sun Royal Family members are distinctively red. The brighter the red, the purer the bloodline.)

He quickly kneeled down, telling Manila, “Your Majesty! I’ve received news, Expeditionary Force Base 056 is under attack! Su Yu and the Blue Star female from the video are the ones attacking it!”

“What?!,” exclaimed Manila, his complexion changed drastically.

The numbering of expeditionary force bases is arranged according to the size of the Spiritual Spring Eye.

The Yunlu Mountain’s Spring Eye was originally numbered 001.

Now that Expeditionary Force Base 056 is under attack, its location must be a large Spring Eye!

Having just finished watching the broadcast, Manila had assumed Su Yu was done for the day, but it seemed Su Yu had suddenly launched a counterattack!

“Xi Weng, is there a live feed?” Manila’s expression was very serious.

“Of course, Your Majesty.” Intelligence Director Xi Weng quickly activated his communicator with the fastest speed possible, inputting the live feed received from his subordinates into the assembly hall’s large screen.

Following a brief buffering period, the live feed was displayed before them.

…

The feed was showing a large Skuru expeditionary force base located at the peak of Yan Mountain’s Fog Zero Peak.

The large base housed as many as 324 starships, 23 times the size of ‘Yan One’!

The three central buildings of the base were also much grander than those at ‘Yan One’.

Now, a giant tear in a cross shape form was evident on the base’s protective shield.

Above the base, a large Blue Dragon was recklessly spewing dragon breath, with a number of summoned creatures close behind, including [Moon Goddess Illusion], [King Kong], and [Arcane Puppet].

A Skuru Spiritual Mecha Master from the Sanctuary was directing a red mecha in an attempt to halt the Blue Dragon’s attack.

But he was no match for the Blue Dragon.

Even though the Blue Dragon had to split its concentration to deal with the various laser weapon attacks from within the base, the Skuru from the Sanctuary was still being suppressed and could only scramble desperately amidst the dragon breath.

“It’s Ovim!” Manila XIIIth recognized the Sanctuary Mecha Master in the feed.

This Sanctuary Mecha Master was one of the Raging Sun empire’s clan, having royal blood, considered an elite member of the royal family, he couldn’t believe he was being bullied by Su Yu so badly.

“Humph, he’s such a disgrace!” Seeing Ovim’s clumsy attempts, Manila was somewhat ashamed.

Intelligence Director Xi Weng wiped his sweat, prepared to say something like “he has tried his best” to give Manila a way out.

But at that moment, a blinding gold light erupted on the screen!
