Chapter 937: Chapter 405: Sudden Change (Five-in-One) 6

Shi Fu was also taken aback and immediately shut his mouth.

At this time, Rhein, who was beside Su Ming, asked in confusion.

“Boss, what’s happening?”

“Haven’t you noticed? The fleet outside Tasji Main Star is almost gone.”

“Damn, what’s going on? The Emperor is missing too.”

Upon hearing Su Ming’s words, Rhein quickly used the optical device at the lookout to enlarge the external starry sky image and said in shock.

“Not sure, but we can find out. Isn’t the Wind Moving over there?”

Su Ming immediately saw the Wind Moving floating at the spot where the Emperor originally docked.

“Yes, we can just ask.”

Rhein responded quickly.

Su Ming turned and walked to the console, speaking to the operator.

“Send a communication request to the Level 4 Battleship Wind Moving at the front.”

“Yes!”

The operator immediately executed Su Ming’s command.

Soon, the communication was connected, and Timi’s virtual image popped up.

“I am Timi, Captain of Wind Moving. What can I do for you?”

“Timi, it’s me.”

Su Ming stepped forward and said.

“Officer Su Ming, you’ve returned!”

Timi replied happily.

“Yes, I’ve been out taking care of some things. What’s happening here? Why are all the ships gone, and where did the Emperor go?”

Su Ming asked Timi with a serious expression.

“Here’s the situation: The command center received news that the Dark Star Empire saw us amassing troops here and began frantically raiding resources from various Neutral Countries. They used to only take valuable resources, but now they’re grabbing anything with some value, like locusts! So Commander Luo Kui and Vice Commander Parekens made a decisive decision to issue many support missions for the Neutral Countries. Vickers took on a mission and headed out, but since you weren’t here, Vickers left us to wait for you.”

Timi explained succinctly.

“I see.”

After hearing Timi, Su Ming became very serious.

This move by the Dark Star Empire was clever; the Federation’s troops and weapons are not yet fully in place.

They made the first move to raid the Neutral Countries. If the Federation sends troops, it won’t be favorable; if they don’t send troops, it’s still problematic.

Sending troops would be disadvantageous because the forces haven’t fully consolidated. But without sending, by the time the troops are assembled, the Dark Star Empire might have already raided all the Neutral Countries and returned fully loaded.

Then, when the Federation gathers its forces, they’ll find nothing. Although the Federation claims to invite Neutral Countries to join, it can’t pass up the chance to seize some resources.

“Officer Su Ming, what should we do now? Maybe you should take on a mission too?”

Timi tentatively asked.

“Yes, I’ll return to Command and take a mission. Wait for my update.”

Su Ming nodded.

This so-called support mission is essentially a resource raid, a prime mission opportunity that can’t be missed.

“Okay!”

Timi nodded in response, then cut off the communication.

…

Soon afterward, at the Tasji Neutral Country·Feimank Base City Interstellar Airport.

The Level 4 Transport Ship Grizzly gradually landed at the docking bay.

Inside the ship’s hangar.

Su Ming stood before the Mecha and raised his wristband to transfer 5 billion to Captain Hagett, then said to them.

“Captain Hagett, take this money and go settle your home affairs first, then quickly get the Fatty Dun ready and wait for my notice.”

“Alright!”

Hagett and his crew responded immediately.

“See you later.”

Su Ming and Rhein activated the anti-gravity device beneath their feet, floating towards the cockpit.

Then they powered up the Mecha, rushing towards the boarding exit.

Swish!

They swiftly separated from the transport ship and flew towards the operations command center.

In no time.

The four of them returned to the command center, landing steadily on the docking area. They opened the cockpit and floated down.

“Let’s go!”

After touching down, Su Ming led Rhein and the others quickly into the building.

“Boss, do you think we can still get any good missions? The fat ones might already be taken.”

Rhein said worriedly.

“What choice do we have? We arrived late, now we can only take whatever’s left.”

Su Ming responded rationally.

He hadn’t anticipated that such a situation would arise at this critical juncture.

“True enough.”

Rhein scratched his head and replied.

Soon, Su Ming and his team entered the building, coming into the hall.

The entire hall was extremely lively, filled with anxious representatives from Neutral Countries. Whenever they spotted someone wearing a Federation uniform, they immediately approached and pleaded for help, utterly desperate and grasping at straws.

“I am from the Battier Kingdom. We’ve already submitted an application to join the Federation Government. Please help us; those villains from the Dark Star Empire are looting everything, even sparing no children.”

…

At this time, Ankaga observed the situation and spoke up.

“There are still so many people left without assistance. It seems there should be plenty of tasks remaining, though judging by this scene, they’re probably the sort that are more hassle than worth.”

“Probably.”

Su Ming didn’t care much, leading Rhein and the others into the inner hall.

Soon they arrived in the inner hall, which was quite deserted, with only a tall middle-aged man in Lieutenant’s attire sitting at the task distribution point with a stern expression.

“Hey, small world, boss, isn’t that guy Lieutenant En Rui?”

Rhein said excitedly.

“I see him.”

Su Ming took a glance, equally surprised to see that it was indeed him.

“Boss, should we teach him a lesson? Back in the day, that guy was insufferable.”
