Chapter 383 - 383 317 New and Old Grudges (Five in One)_6

383: Chapter 317 New and Old Grudges (Five in One)_6 383: Chapter 317 New and Old Grudges (Five in One)_6 Even Farren’s father had succumbed to illness after that great war; one could say that the entire Sky Dome Family bore a deep-seated grudge against the Blood-colored Fang Army.

Over the years, Farren had always wanted to seek revenge, and had the Federation not been suppressing him, he would have taken action long ago!

Now, the Blood-colored Fang Army had gone so far as to kill Dr.

Colin, thoroughly enraging Farren and the others.

At that moment, a series of urgent virtual communication connection requests popped up.

“Received, communication from Starlight City, accept?”

“Received, communication request from Rain Capital, accept?”

Farren accepted the calls with a steely-faced click.

The virtual images of Gakels City Lord and City Lord Alicia immediately appeared before Farren.

Gakels, catching a glimpse of Farren’s bloodshot eyes, also furrowed his brows and spoke in a grave voice,

“Farren, I’ve heard about the savage killing of Dr.

Colin by the Imperial Army.

I deeply mourn this.”

“Mourn!

What use is mourning?”

Farren roared like a furious lion, lifting his head.

“Calm down, we didn’t want to see this happen either.

But at this critical juncture, don’t be impulsive!”

City Lord Alicia hurriedly interjected.

“Not be impulsive?

I don’t understand—you keep giving in time and again.

How terrified are you of the Imperial Army?

When the Council Chairman was still around, when did we ever tolerate such humiliation?

Frankly, they are nothing but a stray dog that broke away from us.

And now this stray dog dares to snap at our faces, and you can still bear it?

If you’re too scared to fight, I’m not!”

Farren roared wildly like a beast.

“Stay calm, starting a full-scale war now could lead to problems!”

City Lord Alicia persistently advised.

Gakels took a deep breath and said to Farren,

“A little patience prevents big mistakes; just bear it a bit longer, wait for the right moment, and we will surely avenge this!”

“Don’t talk to me about that, I’ve waited too many years, I won’t wait any longer!

And don’t worry about dragging the Federation into this; I won’t fight them openly.

I’ll fight this covert war myself and see what they’re really capable of!”

Farren replied resolutely.

“Farren…”

Just as Gakels and Alicia were about to speak and persuade him,

Farren abruptly raised his hand to cut them off, stating brusquely,

“Enough said, that’s it!”

With those words, Farren forcefully ended the communication.

At that moment, Deputy City Lord Quins angrily spoke to Farren,

“Sir, the Neutral Zone that was attacked is in the Danube Star Sea, which is our main industrial area, not one of their two main operating Neutral Country areas.

It’s natural they aren’t anxious.

If it had been one of the other two Neutral Star Sea areas affected, see how anxious they would be.”

In fact, all three cities operated their respective areas outside; firstly, the Federation’s First Legion·Imperial Court guarded the foremost of the three forbidden zones—the Wormhole Space-Time Area, the Second Legion·Residual Light Army was responsible for the Abyss of Descent, the Sky Dome City led the Third Legion·Immortal Legion and Rain City led the Fourth Legion·Water Realm Legion stationed in the Mist Star Sea.

As for the Neutral Star Sea located between the Dark Star Empire and the Federation, Danube Star Sea—it was operated by the Dome City Lord.

Rain City operated the Neutral Zone between the Federation and the divine authority country of Fretta, while Starlight City Lord managed the Neutral Zone between the Wormhole Space-Time and the Federation.

“Right, the damages aren’t theirs, the dead aren’t their people, of course they can afford to speak without pain!”

Many subordinates present cursed along.

“Enough said!”

Farren yelled furiously.

For a moment, everyone fell silent, and Farren then spoke maliciously,

“Prepare the people and the ships; only fresh blood can repay a blood debt!”

“Yes!”

Upon hearing Farren’s words, everyone rose and left.

At this moment, all nine major stars of the Federation mobilized, launching a large fleet toward Black Flame Star.

Instantly, the Star Cluster Forum nearly exploded, with countless discussion threads springing up like mushrooms after rain.

“What’s going on lately?

A large number of ships are taking off from our interstellar airport, the scene is spectacular!”

“I’m dealing with the same thing over here!”

“What are you talking about?

Come see Black Flame Star, the interstellar airport is almost in a state of emergency.

A huge number of fleets are gathering here, and now you have to queue to enter Black Flame Star.”

“What in the world happened?”

“What happened?

Didn’t you see the video that was secretly shared?”

“What video?

Send me the link, I can’t find it on Star Cluster Forum!”

“It’s the Imperial Army invading our research institute and slaughtering our people!

Try searching for the broadcasting channel of Sky Dome City, you should be able to see it.”

“They are so bold?

How dare they kill our people, let’s take them down!”

“I want to take them down too, but the Federation is currently silent, though the people of Sky Dome City have gone mad.”

“Mad?

This is about revenge, okay?

They killed our people, how can we endure this?”

“We absolutely can’t endure this!”

…

Inside the office of Starlight City Lord’s Mansion.

Gakels City Lord rubbed his temples tiredly as he looked at the countless posts popping up on Star Cluster Forum.

Just then, Secretary Yun Rou entered, her expression grave as she reported.

“City Lord, the situation is somewhat out of control, and public opinion can’t be suppressed.”

“How could it possibly be controlled, whether it’s one million, ten million, or even a billion people killed in the Neutral Zone, those are just numbers.

But the Imperial Army should never have killed our people.”

“So, what should we do now?

Sky Dome City is already amassing troops and heading to Black Flame Star, and the scale is massive, including mercenaries, private armies, reservists, and even the regular forces of the Fifth and Sixth Legions.”

“Let me think.”

Gakels leaned back in his chair, his expression extremely weary.

Although they disagreed with all-out war, tightly locking onto Farren, the deployment of troops dispatched by Farren meant that the situation was sure to escalate—this was the fuse!

Sooner or later, the situation would completely collapse.

Gakels had anticipated the outcome, yet he was powerless to change it.

…

Inside the Blood Edge Fortress in the Danube Star Sea.

Legion Commander Aus sat on his luxurious throne.

At that moment, a subordinate rushed in to report.

“Sir Aus, urgent military news!”

“Speak!”

Aus looked up, his gaze cold as he faced his subordinate.

“Captain Leon led a raid team deep into the territory of Fretta Country and attacked a secret laboratory there.

As a result, the Federation mobilized nearby troops and completely annihilated Captain Leon’s team.”

The subordinate reported to Aus.

“Are you saying the Federation has made a move?”

A fierce light flashed in Aus’s eyes as he asked grimly.

“Yes, the Federation, furious and embarrassed, has entered the fray.

Also, reliable information indicates that Dome City is making big moves, starting to assemble a large army.”

The Order Officer replied with certainty.

“Congratulations, Legion Commander, the Federation has finally been provoked.

Once the troops from Dome City are out, we can take them down, and then the Federation will have to enter the fray.”

Nozter immediately congratulated Aus with joy.

Upon hearing this, Aus revealed a cruel smile.

“Excellent, the fish are beginning to bite.

Nozter, get started on the arrangements immediately!”

“Understood!”

Nozter and the others responded solemnly.
