Shadows of the Deep Space - Chapter 1882 - 575: Troops at the Gates (Part 3)

“Did they make a move?”
Elder Oshim said in a deep voice.
“Lord Komih, we can’t wait any longer. They’ve already acted, it’s clear the Federation is failing. If we let them seize the Dimension Stone first, it’s over.”
Remwaco urgently said to Komih.
Komih’s expression changed momentarily, then he said in a deep voice.
“Remwaco makes sense, we can’t wait any longer. Immediately notify the Fanluo God Emperor to assemble the troops and attack the Guangqi Star Defense Line!”
“Yes!”
Everyone responded in unison.
Irene Liss watched coldly, showing no intention to interfere.

Federation Administrative Building·Dawn Hall.
The entire conference hall was like a marketplace, extremely noisy.
The battle images of Earth Flame Star and Steel Rock Star were projected on the council platform.
“Oh dear, what do we do now? The Earth Flame Star defense line’s weapons have been paralyzed!”
“Weren’t they modified? How could they still be paralyzed?”
“The modification effects are limited.”
“Sigh, I didn’t expect Steel Rock Star not to have any issues, and yet the most stable Earth Flame Star turns out to have problems.”
…..
Many council members looked at the images of the Earth Flame Star Defense Line, as anxious as ants on a hot pan.
They knew that this was the last line of defense! Once breached, they would be a meal for the Alien Race.
Long Bai watched the battle at the Earth Flame Star Defense Line, his expression growing increasingly grave. Even though the First Legion is very strong, without the support of large-scale defensive firepower, the situation was very bleak, with casualties skyrocketing.
At this moment, Vice City Lord Okens hurriedly approached Long Bai, lowering his voice to report.
“Lord Long Bai, it’s not good!”
“What’s wrong?”
“It’s chaos, complete chaos. A large number of nobles and wealthy individuals have fled on private ships. Especially Sky Dome City, it’s the most exaggerated, the most have escaped!”
“Sky Dome City?”
Long Bai was very surprised upon hearing this.
“Yes, I also find it unbelievable.”
Okens was utterly puzzled.
“I understand, ignore them!”
Long Bai said coldly.
…
Xiguang Laboratory·Underground First Floor.
Su Ming hurried towards Dock 1.
The doctors and soldiers along the way saw Su Ming and made way, respectfully greeting him.
“Lord Su Ming!”
Su Ming didn’t respond, just kept quickening his pace.
Soon he arrived at the control room of Dock 1 and saw Dr. Blakes on the observation deck.
Su Ming walked straight to Blakes’ side and looked down through the glass.
He saw Ilyas standing on a circular metal modification platform, with biological tubes extending from the ceiling to various parts of her mecha body, continuously injecting black matter.
Moreover, at her chest, mechanics from the Mechanical Department were controlling maintenance mechas, replacing Ilyas’ power core.
“How much longer?”
Su Ming urgently asked.
“About two hours!”
Blakes replied coldly.
Hearing this, Su Ming took a deep breath to suppress his impatience.
He didn’t urge Dr. Blakes because this was certainly the fastest speed.
Su Ming raised his wristwatch to check the Earth Flame Star’s situation; it was very bleak.

Guangqi Star Defense Line.
Within the central control room of the Nether Moon Fortress.
Long Chen, Commander Flaya, Commander Soraya, and others watched the battles at the Earth Flame Star and Steel Rock Star Defense Lines with solemn expressions.
“Earth Flame Star, it’s not looking good over there; too few defensive weapons are activated!”
Commander Soraya said with furrowed brows.
“It’s been so long, and those paralyzed weapons still haven’t been activated. The modification effects are really poor?”
Commander Flaya said helplessly.
“There’s nothing surprising about it; after all, the opponent is the God of Intelligent Machinery!”
Long Chen spoke in a deep voice.
At that moment, a piercing alarm sounded, and the scanning device displayed countless red dots.
One red warning frame after another popped up.
“Warning: Divine Authority Star detected!”
“Warning: Chilami detected.”
…
Gwen immediately reported to Long Chen.
“Lord, the Fanluo God Emperor and the Chilami Clan have arrived!”
“What was destined to come has come; order all personnel to prepare for battle!”
Long Chen immediately commanded.
“Yes!”
Everyone responded in unison.
….
Inside the Xiguang Laboratory.
Su Ming was waiting while browsing the Star Cluster Forum to follow the battlefield dynamics.
At this moment, a post quickly rose to the top.
“Urgent Military Intelligence: The Chilami and Heavenly Revelation Divine Country armies are pressing down on the Guangqi Star Defense Line, Guangqi Star is entering combat status, and a major battle is imminent!”
Su Ming saw this post and felt his mood grow heavier; a triple front war had fully broken out.
Although it’s just returning to the initial state of the war, the situation now is entirely different from when the war first began. The Federation Forces have already suffered significant damage and have lost three major defense lines. If this line of defense is also breached, the Federation will be essentially non-existent, and there won’t be any need to wait for the Third Planet’s defense battle before announcing its demise.
Su Ming glanced at the comment section.
“It’s over, the Chilami Clan and Heavenly Revelation Divine Country have launched an attack too.”
“Not afraid of them, didn’t we hold out last time?”
“I know, but for some reason, I feel incredibly anxious!”
“Good luck, I’m a coward, I’m leaving first!”
“Big brother, take me with you.”
…
The feeling of panic continued to spread.
Su Ming exhaled slightly, then looked up at the ongoing modifications on Ilyas, his expression growing increasingly distant.
He seemed to see a familiar fate.
This impending collapse was so similar to what he had experienced.
