Space Odyssey from Abandoned Mining Space Station

All the preparations were directly crafted by Chen Ming using spiritual energy into cruisers, all of Stardust class.

A total of nine ships.

One Stardust-class can release 1,600 Meteor Fighters designed for self-destruction in one round.

With nine Stardust-class, that amounts to 14,400 Meteor Fighters, a staggering number!

This is just in one round, Chen Ming’s spiritual energy could replenish the combat supplies for all ships in real-time.

Meteor Fighters are certainly within the scope of resupply.

Just release several more rounds of fighters.

The scene should be quite grand.

Chen Ming was already feeling the anticipation.

Although the material consumption might be considerable, the effect will undoubtedly be impressive. After all, materials are meant to be used.

Accumulating unused materials is simply waste.

Additionally, he made a new attempt this time.

Apart from thirteen cruisers in the fleet, he paired 260 destroyers at a one-to-ten ratio.

The 260 destroyers come in only two models: sixty Law Enforcement Level Fourteenth Legion to hold the line.

And the remaining two hundred, equipped with Speed Particle Spears and energy crystal storage devices capable of keeping up with the terrifying energy consumption of the Speed Particle Spears, plus armor-piercing antimatter reactors and engines.

Tens of thousands of self-destruct small planes and two hundred Speed Particle Spears are sure to bring endless surprises to the Mechanical Race.

Chen Ming didn’t bring any smaller escorts, as even smaller vessels would merely be cannon fodder and meaningless.

If he can launch a preemptive strike in the coming battles, there’s a significant chance of achieving victory.

Meanwhile, as Chen Ming’s fleet was searching for the Mechanical Race’s base.

Chen Ming’s avatar at headquarters was taken away by someone.

The people from headquarters took Chen Ming to a military base near the city, escorting him to the door of a conference room.

Standing at the door, Chen Ming heard them talking inside about matters related to him, the ones he had just discussed with Bai Quan.

As Chen Ming was about to push the door open, he suddenly heard someone saying, ”Chen Ming made a mistake in military objectives and should be punished.”

This sentence made Chen Ming stop right at the door, refraining from entering, and also motioned to the person beside him who brought him here to remain silent.

The person in the conference room continued, ”If the Mechanical Race acquires this technology, the consequences would be unimaginable.”

”There’s no guarantee that, after the fact, the Mechanical Race hasn’t seized the opportunity to capture a sample and acquire the technology.”

”This situation is quite serious,”

These two statements seemed to echo the consensus of many who disliked him.

After all, any direct sabotage had been thwarted, and with the Legion Commander backing him, no one dared to touch this sensitive issue.

But if they can latch onto a mistake he made to attack him, then no one could find a fault.

Not even the Legion Commander could protect Chen Ming if indeed he made a mistake.

However, Chen Ming soon heard a familiar voice saying, ”The premise for questioning is a genuine mistake. As long as this matter is handled well, it won’t be a mistake but the right action.”

”Moreover, Chen Ming was originally a civilian officer; ensuring the transport of military supplies was something others should have been responsible for, and it cannot be solely blamed on him.”

If Chen Ming wasn’t mistaken, the voice defending him belonged to Qiu Bowen, the general who previously opposed him.

Although it might be possible that Qiu Bowen said this upon realizing Chen Ming was at the door, at least he gave Chen Ming face in front of others.

Chen Ming pushed open the door.

The layout inside the conference room was now clear to his eyes.

It was familiar.

Just like the meeting room into which Bai Quan first invited him for a military meeting.

Back then, Chen Ming was just beginning to learn military command and could hardly understand anything.

But now, at least Chen Ming could understand and even had the right to speak here.

Qiu Bowen, Bai Quan, and three other Vice Admirals who Chen Ming had not seen before were standing at the forefront of the conference room, chatting with each other.

”He’s here,”

Bai Quan’s simple statement attracted everyone’s attention to Chen Ming.

The three Vice Admirals didn’t reveal who had spoken poorly of Chen Ming earlier, choosing instead to remain silent.

Chen Ming didn’t bother with them.

Qiu Bowen seemed unaffected, as if the person who lost face to Chen Ming earlier wasn’t him at all.

After shaking hands with Chen Ming as usual, he gestured for Chen Ming to sit at the main position.

After all, the key to this emergency operation lay in Chen Ming.

Chen Ming didn’t hold back, reaching out to control the computer beside him.

A scene was projected onto the conference table.

A fleet was navigating a route, about to pass through and reach a superspace in a star system.

Besides the surroundings, parts of the fleet could be seen in the image.

For a moment, all the General Level attendees except Bai Quan seemed eager to speak.

Because typically, when executing fleet actions with over a hundred ships against unknown enemy configurations, at least five different models of ships are necessary to equip to deal with complex and changing combat environments.

But Chen Ming only equipped two types.

However, Chen Ming’s choices were the well-ranked for defensive capability Law Enforcement Level’s Fourteenth Legion modified by Sinda Corporation and the Armor Piercing level, which Sinda had designed and begun mass production for military use.
