Chapter 1509: Chapter 494: Faith War Frontline
Only after all the fleets had disappeared behind the Gate of Ten Thousand Worlds did he reluctantly withdraw his gaze. Amidst the solemn looks of all the soldiers around him, he operated the machine in front of him and dialed a communication.
"Report to Your Majesty, Lord Fanmao has passed through the Gate of Ten Thousand Worlds to the front line.
According to your instructions, we have recorded all the information about Lord Fanmao’s fleet. Here is our observation report...
"
The officer reported seriously, beckoning to his subordinates to send out the observation report they had compiled.
"These warships, their strength is not very high...
Indeed a bit unexpected.
However, the technology of these warships is quite a mix. Outwardly, they appear to be in the Saien mechanical warship standard, likely modified based on Saien warships.
I remember as a Lord, they can choose to replicate once they have a first one..."
The Emperor recalled the Gemini Civilization’s intelligence on the Lords and quickly made a conjecture.
The Emperor wasn’t surprised why Fan Mao, who clearly was close to them, possessed Saien warships.
If it were core technology from other civilizations captured by a subordinate powerhouse, loyalty might be questioned, but not if it was Saien’s technology.
Even he knew that the appearance of Saien’s warships anywhere was not unusual because such trade is almost universally understood, and they could even be called the most commonly used warship type in the starry sky.
Even some of the fleets under the Gemini Civilization use these models of warships.
What’s more, the ones within Fan Mao’s fleet are ancient models from over a hundred years ago, making it even less surprising.
"Moreover, although they look like Saien’s warship models, the core is inclined towards our Gemini’s magic technology, driven entirely by magic power.
And the energy observation report shows traces of the Radiant Civilization, the entire warship is like a weapon infused with some kind of strength that has been amplified.
Truly worthy of coming from Paradise, is this... the Lord’s ability?
The many technologies attainable through fusion?
No wonder so much ordinary metal was needed..."
The Emperor was silent for dozens of seconds before suddenly speaking, with a tone that could still convey a sense of amusement, completely different from the severity when announcing the state of emergency earlier.
As early as when Bai Yi was assembling the fleet, the Emperor already had the idea of investigation, aiming to enrich his understanding of the so-called Lord.
Even one minor reason for providing the fleet composition at the time was this.
Fan Mao would need the fleet itself upon receiving the fleet assignment, and if he rolled out the fleet, he would have the opportunity to confirm Bai Yi’s hidden technological strength in that territory within the Paradise World.
He could also infer from these technologies the special traits the Lord would possess.
If the fleet wasn’t rolled out, he could conveniently provide Gemini Civilization’s fleet to become Fan Mao’s subordinates, further tying it to the war chariot of Gemini Civilization.
Clearly, now Fan Mao chose the former.
"What are your thoughts on Fan Mao’s fleet itself, as you identify as Gemini Civilization soldiers?
Don’t worry, just speak the truth."
From the Emperor’s earlier soliloquy, the officer on the other end of the communication was already breaking a sweat, wondering if this was something he should be hearing.
Only when the Emperor asked did he promptly straighten his body, ponder for a moment, and then answer:
"Then I’ll speak frankly.
Although from the current data, the warships themselves don’t seem strong, the coordination among the fleet is probably more seamless than any Gemini fleet.
If I could take command, even with weaker warships, coordination could compensate, achieving remarkable results.
If they had a stronger fleet collaborating, Lord Fanmao’s fleet might unleash even greater power!"
"I understand, I’ll consider your suggestions."
The Emperor nodded thoughtfully. He merely asked casually, wanting to see what his subordinates thought of Fan Mao.
Not bothering with further pleasantries, the Emperor disconnected the communication.
On the other side, Bai Yi, having passed through the Gate of Ten Thousand Worlds, was unaware that she had once again attracted the Emperor’s attention and had smoothly garnered a group of Gemini Civilization soldiers’ admiration.
This kind of weak faith connection that wasn’t established in front of her eyes no longer caught Bai Yi’s attention. After all, the vastness of the starry sky meant such weak connections due to her influence were too numerous.
After the fleet passed through the gate, Bai Yi had already seen the somewhat tense front line.
Across a vast expanse of space, those God believers’ fleets had established a defensive line around a Life Planet.
A numerous amount of unfamiliar large space turrets and shield generators floated among the fleets, and there were still two star gates at the back continuously emitting new warships, further bolstering the battle line.
Bai Yi guessed, barring any accident, the unfamiliar equipment was likely the hidden technology of the Creator Church.
Fortunately, the Three Great Civilizations were not to be outdone, although lacking large war machines, their sheer number of warships was not deficient in the least.
Moreover, Bai Yi turned her head to see other Gates of Ten Thousand Worlds lined up around her, along with other fleets emerging from the gates as she had.
From the emblems on those fleets, they were the allies from the recent meeting of the Three Great Civilizations.
