Chapter 726: All Thanks to the Commander (1/2)
With Hu Song's demise, the remaining fleet lost the will to resist.
The Super Soldiers launched their assault at full strength, aided by Alice's interference. They captured hundreds of intact Warships, and the rest were destroyed when their self-destruct mechanisms were triggered.
"Not bad at all, a great harvest indeed. We'll have something to study when we get back," Yun Ru beamed with joy. With so many Warships at her disposal, she could disassemble them as she pleased.
"Now that the Feathered Warbler Empire has dispatched an army, it shows they've noticed the existence of our Empire. This is a challenge for us, but also an opportunity," Su Yi remarked, his gaze serious as he looked around at the others.
"We must rapidly enhance our strength. We need to gain control over the Feathered Warbler Empire as quickly as possible. I have a feeling that the Commander has something on his mind."
Being one of the earliest Soldiers to follow Su Chen, Su Yi had the deepest understanding of him. Even though Su Chen had never shown any weakness before them, Su Yi could still sense something.
Ju Ling, upon hearing this, quickly asked, "What do you know?"
"I'm not clear on the specifics, but I always feel like the Commander is... anxious? Based on my analysis, it's very likely that our strength is still not enough to provide the Commander with a sense of security."
"To not mention distant concerns, the Feathered Warbler Empire alone has Powerhouses of the Large Galaxy ninth order. With our current strength, a head-on clash is definitely not an option. That, I fear, is one of the factors the Commander is worried about."
"Do you mean the Commander has other worries as well?"
Su Yi nodded, "It's highly probable. The only thing we can do is to increase our strength, to ensure that the Commander has no need to worry!"
The Super Soldiers nodded in agreement. Their existence was to protect the Commander.
The obliteration of the Feathered Warbler Empire's fleet was not something that could be reported back in less than several months, granting the Red Alert Empire ample time to develop.
Meanwhile, upon learning of Hu Song's death, Su Chen knew the outcome of the battle was a foregone conclusion. Su Yi presented him with a comprehensive summary.
"Hmm, you've done well."
"All thanks to the Commander," Su Yi responded earnestly.
A smirk tugged at Su Chen's lips. Su Yi, you've changed. You've actually learned to flatter!
What happened to the forthright Su Yi of before?
"By the way, since we're preparing to move against the Feathered Warbler Empire, take Su Er and the others with you, specifically to deal with matters there. I'll have Ju Ling and Tanya handle things in the Rota Empire," Su Chen instructed.
Among all the Red Alert troop types, Su Chen valued those nine Soldiers who had been with him from the beginning the most. But with the rapid expansion of their territory recently, each of them was burdened with critical tasks, seldom able to gather together.
Without the Red Alert World, they probably would never have the chance to see each other.
"Yes!" Su Yi replied, his voice tinged with excitement.
In his view, Su Er and the others were like his younger brothers, having been constructed at roughly the same time as the first batch of Soldiers to follow the Commander. This honor was not something just anyone could claim.
