"General Su Ming, Fish Ocean is fully repaired and ready to set sail!"
Su Ming glanced at the time on his bracelet, 115 hours! Itās 5 hours ahead of schedule. He immediately issued an order.
"Everyone, set sail!"
"Yes!"
Timi and the others responded immediately.
After making arrangements, Su Ming turned to Onite and praised.
"Well done, how much did the repairs cost this time?"
"How could we spend money? Everything was reimbursed with public funds. And I took some time to approve 13.4 billion in standby funds from the Military Department."
Onite said with a cheerful smile.
"Ah? Got the approval?"
Rhein and the others were taken aback.
"Thatās right, we are a regular fleet, and the Thirteenth Legionās application quota is quite high. I looked through your backlog of historical bills, many of which could have been reimbursed werenāt. I got them all reimbursed for you, from ammunition, medical expenses, mechanical parts, down to toothbrushes and towels! And Iāve applied for overtime subsidies, double wages for vacation for you..."
Onite said with a cheerful smile.
Su Ming heard this and rubbed his forehead, feeling a mix of amused and helpless.
He didnāt know whether to be happy or cry, these bills would end up going to Long Bai.
Long Bai might even think heās freeloading off her.
However, Oniteās approach was correct. Without reimbursements like this, the maintenance fees would be very expensive.
Their fleet is currently sustained by Su Mingās side income.
If they didnāt have any extra income for an extended period, funding would definitely become problematic.
"You donāt need to tell me about these things, you deal with it on your own."
Su Ming was indeed unwilling to listen anymore.
"Alright."
Onite replied happily.
He is increasingly fond of this lucrative position now.
At this time, the ships like Meteor Light successfully disengaged from Blackthorn Fortress and appeared in the starry sky.
Timi immediately said to Su Ming.
"Commander Su Ming, everything is ready."
"Set off, target Abyss of Descent!"
Su Ming directly issued the order.
"Yes!"
Timi replied sternly.
Meteor Light and other ships promptly activated the Superluminal Flight Device and rapidly disappeared into Subspace.
....
Several days later.
In the pitch-black starry sky, everywhere were octopus forms, and Chilami with embedded Hive genes.
Meteor Light, Shield Asia Mother Ship, Ice Needleās Interception Cannons and launch ports continuously poured out beams and missiles.
Boom~
One Chilami after another was eliminated, and the whole starry sky looked like a fireworks display.
Doomed Light Central Control Room.
Timi continuously reported the combat situation.
"32 thousand units of Chilami have been eliminated."
"The scans in the front area detect a large number of Chilami approaching."
...
Su Ming listened to Timiās report and solemnly asked Onite.
"Onite, is the road to Abyss of Descent always this difficult? So many roaming monsters."
"It shouldnāt be. On my last transport trip, there were a number of roaming monsters, but not this many."
Onite looked at the red dots displayed on the scanner screen, also feeling puzzled.
Suddenly, the Scanning Device prompted a red alert.
"Warning: Coordinates 3211, 4221, 4223 area detected a large gathering of Chilami!"
"Activate Optical Device to capture the image."
Timi immediately commanded.
A holographic image appeared, and in the distant starry sky, it looked like a tide of Chilami crazily gathered together, forming a huge black cellular meatball.
The surface of the entire black cellular meatball continuously wriggled, and Kais biological reaction constantly surged.
"Monitor the strength of the biological reaction!"
"6651, and still rising!"
...
Su Ming watched the strength of the reaction, it was almost at IV Type Lord Level.
He immediately said to Timi.
"Ignore it, full speed ahead!"
"Yes!"
Timi immediately responded.
The fleet began accelerating forward.
At this moment, the Chilami aggregate crazily compressed its body, instantly transforming into a humanoid form over a hundred meters tall, with a deformed head, two pairs of flesh wings, and hands like beast claws, an IV Type General Level Chilami.
Then it started pursuing the fleet at high speed from behind, the distance between them continuously shortened.
Subsequently, this IV Type General Level Chilami opened its mouth, continuously charging up numerous Kais Beams, and fired towards the rear Level 5 Battleship Ice Needle.
Ice Needle continued releasing missiles, adjusting Interception Cannon attacks, but the effect was not very good.
Timi saw this scene and reported to Su Ming.
"Commander Su Ming, that monster is catching up."
Su Ming glanced, to take down that monster would likely require deploying the shipās Main Cannon, but turning the shipās bow was truly too troublesome.
He thought of this and said to Rhein.
"Rhein, lead the team and quickly finish it off."
"Yes!"
Rhein immediately turned and left.
Not long after, the exit of Meteor Light opened, Rhein controlled Fake V Generation MechaĀ·Frenzy Shadow leading ten Thunder Guards, swiftly charging towards that IV Type General Level Chilami.
Su Ming sat in the command chair, watching Rhein and others fight through the Optical Imaging Device.
When Rhein and others approached the target, that Chilami opened its mouth and shot a dazzling Kais Beam at Rhein and his team.
Rhein issued a warning to everyone, and they quickly evaded.
Then they fired from a distance at Chilami, launching dazzling beams one after another.
Boom!
The AT field on Chilamiās surface trembled and twisted violently, soon collapsing.
At this moment, Rhein controlled the Fake V Generation MechaĀ·Frenzy, engines at full throttle, transforming into a stream of light charging forward!
