"Watch less of this stuff; those who talk about it are just trying to attract attention."

"What he said is only half true and half false." Captain Li Hua reminded his adjutant, who was watching the video.

The adjutant chuckled and turned off the channel.

He leaned close to Captain Li Hua and asked in a low voice, "What do you think the future course of this war will be?"

"What, do you actually hope that the Xiaolong Interstellar Empire will be defeated?" Captain Li Hua looked at his adjutant.

The adjutant shook his head repeatedly and said, "How could that be? After all, we rely on the Dragon Star Empire for our livelihood."

"If something happens to the Dragon Star Empire, then we're doomed too."

"Now that you know this is how it is, stop overthinking it."

We may appear to be just interstellar mercenaries, but in essence, we still have intricate connections with the Dragon Star Empire.

"There will only be one outcome in this war: the Xiaolong Interstellar Empire will win!" Captain Li Hua said firmly.

Seeing this, the adjutant could only nod repeatedly.

Captain Li Hua sat back in his captain's chair and turned on a conference channel.

Looking at the dozens of video windows in the conference channel.

"Is everyone here?" Captain Li Hua glanced around.

"Most of them are present, and those who are not present are on duty."

The third squad is currently on escort missions in other universes, making communication a bit more difficult.

"Okay, I understand."

The war has now been going on for three months.

I know everyone is tired.

I've also noticed that there are quite a few other voices emerging within our team.

Some people believe that if the war continues, the situation of the Dragon Star Empire will be dire, and they are thinking of taking advantage of the time they still have to transfer their assets and find a new place to go.

Some people thought that the money they had earned in these three months was equivalent to the money they had earned in the past three years, and that if they were frugal, it wouldn't be a problem for their families to live on for thirty years. They were all thinking about returning home victorious.

Everyone has their own ideas, and that's fine.

But there are some things I need to clarify first.

Captain Li Hua swept his gaze across the group of people with a serious expression, concluding that some of these ideas likely originated from those in higher-ups.

"First, regarding the outcome of the war."

We stand firmly on the side of the Dragon Star Empire.

Without the Xiaolong Interstellar Empire, there would be no White Dragon mercenary fleet.

I will not take any action to abandon the Xiaolong Interstellar Empire until it announces its surrender.

Another question is whether we have earned enough money.

I never force anyone to stay in the team.

This was also stated in the original contract.

Quitting is not allowed during a task.

After the mission is completed, you can leave at any time if you wish.

However, in our White Dragon Mercenary Army, every position is crucial. If you leave now, it won't be so easy for you to get back in later.

So whether or not you're going, you should think it through carefully.

That's all I wanted to say before this meeting.

"Do you have anything to say?" Li Hua's gaze swept over the group.

These people just kept saying "uh-huh, yes, yes" without offering any other opinions.

Since its inception, the White Dragon Mercenary Group has been a joint-stock company, but through Captain Li Hua's own efforts, it has quietly gained control of most of the group's power.

Several high-ranking officials also sided with Li Hua.

Therefore, almost no one would stand up and openly oppose any of Li Hua's decisions.

As everyone knows, Captain Li Hua is a staunch supporter of the Xiaolong Interstellar Empire.

Okay, no other questions.

Next, let's discuss some things related to the upcoming mission..."

Situations like the White Dragon Mercenaries have actually occurred in other mercenary fleets as well.

The reason people come out to take on missions is simply to change their fate and make a fortune.

War is something most people fear, and the longer one stays there, the stronger that fear becomes.

More and more people will want to leave this place.

From an objective standpoint, the Dragon Star Empire has no direct solution to these problems. It can only provide better assistance and ensure that the missions they take on are not high-risk.

This is the only way to encourage more mercenary fleets to stay.

In the third and a half months, when the war had lasted for more than a hundred days.

A message appeared almost immediately before the leaders of all parties involved.

It quickly appeared on various platforms of the cosmic network, and major anchors, hosts, and commentators all urgently released related reports.

【Urgent! The Three Divine Envoys Civilization has once again assembled a billion interstellar warships to launch a surprise attack on the Xiaolong Interstellar Empire. Rumors suggest that the Xiaolong Interstellar Empire's Xiaolong Starfield is surrounded!】

Over three billion interstellar warships have flooded into the Xiaolong Interstellar Empire, and the entire Xiaolong Interstellar Empire is engulfed in war.

Currently, battles have broken out in as many as thirty regions within the Xiaolong universe cluster, with the most intense fighting taking place at the stargate located in the Bailan Interstellar Trade Group universe.

..................

All sorts of news, true or false, and exaggerated speculations are flying all over the screen.

This has caused great panic among the public.

Fortunately, a new media outlet soon emerged, using more authoritative reporting and even live streaming.

Tell everyone what happened.

"Hello everyone, I'm Feifei, a battlefield reporter."

I am now bringing you firsthand reports from the Holy Elf Empire.

In the second star sector of the Holy Elf Empire, fifty million interstellar warships of the Three Gods Envoy Civilization appeared, including more than fifty near-T7 interstellar warships.

They have currently captured one-third of the area of ​​the Holy Elf Empire's second star region and are launching a strong attack on the largest star gate in that star region.

However, the Holy Elf Empire's fleet put up a fierce resistance, using Dragon-type interstellar warships to fight the enemy to a standstill.

In addition, a Dragon Legion fleet appeared, although it only consisted of 300,000 interstellar warships.

However, seeing the flag of the Xiaolong Interstellar Empire appear here, we can be certain that the Xiaolong Interstellar Empire still has sufficient confidence in protecting the interstellar civilizations within its sphere of influence.

Feifei-chan will continue to bring you reports here!

"This is the Xiaolong Interstellar Empire, outside the military headquarters building in Chang'an City, Xiaolong Starfield."

News has spread that a fleet of what appears to be the Tri-Gods' Civilization has invaded the Dragon Star Empire.

The Imperial Army spokesperson is holding a press conference at the entrance of the building.

Let's hear what this military spokesperson has to say.

"Good afternoon, everyone. I am Sun Na, the third spokesperson for the military and a one-star major general of the Empire."

I'm here to offer some explanations regarding the current information.

First, the invasion of the Tri-Gods' civilization's legion fleet into the Wraith Dragon universe did indeed occur.

Based on the information we have so far.

About three hours ago, thirty-eight cosmic portals appeared in the Xiaolong Cosmic Cluster, including the Xiaolong Interstellar Empire.

Nearly one billion interstellar warships entered our universe within those three hours.

It is expected that a small number more may appear later, but the total number should be around one billion interstellar warships.

These legion fleets of the Triune civilization are attacking key star systems across our Dragon Star Cluster.

But please rest assured.

Our Dragon Star Empire and the Star Alliance will stand together to resist these invading enemies.

We will ensure the safety of the public and protect everyone's property and lives to the greatest extent possible.

We will release the relevant danger levels later. People in the green danger zone do not need to worry and can continue their normal lives.

People in yellow zones should pay attention to local alert information platforms and find out the location of local underground shelters, and be prepared to evacuate at any time.

People within the red zone, please pay attention to the planet's official platforms. If you are ordered to evacuate, please take only a few essential items and evacuate by interstellar transport ship at the designated location.

If you are being directed to a shelter, please follow the instructions.

Whichever method you choose, we will ensure your safety.

Please have faith in our Xiaolong Interstellar Empire.

"We will now have ten minutes for questions. Reporters who have questions, please raise your hands," Major General Sun Na said, glancing at the group of reporters below.

"Major General Sun Na, I have a question. Is it true that there are reports that some interstellar forces within our Star Alliance are preparing to surrender?"

"Major General Sun Na, some people say that our Xiaolong Interstellar Empire has reached the point where there are no soldiers left to use. Is this true?"

"Major General Sun Na, there are rumors that our interstellar missile ships at the front lines are running out of interstellar missile supplies."

Could this be related to the disruption of trade routes for the Holy Kingdom of Ash Star, leading to a shortage of raw materials?

These reporters were like baby birds crying for food, constantly squealing.

Major General Sun Na pointed to several reporters one after another and answered their questions in an orderly manner.

Upstairs in the military headquarters building.

Shen Bing was looking down at the press conference in the military square below.

"Marshal Shen Bing, this is the latest battlefield report from the past twelve hours."

"I've marked some of the important details here," the adjutant said to Marshal Shen Bing.

"What do you think is going on in these people's heads? They can ask any question."

Can't they think about those problems themselves?

What? Our Xiaolong Starfield is surrounded by more than 300 million interstellar warships, and we are in danger of falling at any time.

What a foolish question it is that His Majesty the Emperor is negotiating with the Three Gods Civilization.

Make a note of the identities of these journalists who asked such foolish questions, and they will be barred from entering our Chang'an City from now on.

“Okay,” the adjutant replied.

Marshal Shen Bing returned to his desk and looked at the reports from the battlefield. He could see the names of several of his old friends and their outstanding performance on the battlefield.

When she saw these, her eyes were filled with envy.

She herself also very much hopes to lead her own JF-17 First Legion fleet to fight and battle on the front lines.

However, due to His Majesty's instructions, Shen Bing was to be stationed at the military headquarters building.

Her First Legion Fleet is responsible for the security of the Dragon Starfield and several surrounding starfields.

Although this task is indeed very important.

but......

So be it, so be it.

I don't want to think about these things anymore.

Just then.

Two video windows appeared in front of Shen Bing.

Upon seeing this, Shen Bing immediately stood up and saluted: "Your Majesty, Grand Marshal."

The two video windows that appeared were those of Emperor Zhao Chen and Grand Marshal Charlotte.

"I heard there's a crowd gathered downstairs at your building. Did it disturb you, the Imperial Marshal?" Zhao Chen teased.

Marshal Shen Bing smiled and said, "There are quite a lot of people, and they have all sorts of opinions."

However, I have already arranged for a press conference and used our media channels to release some factual information.

Currently, the situation is still under our control.

After all, this is our Xiaolong Interstellar Empire; I can't guarantee the same for other places.

Can we allow these fake news stories to spread like wildfire on our turf?

"Shen Bing, what's the current situation of our universe cluster?" Grand Marshal Charlotte cut straight to the point and asked.

Shen Bing immediately said seriously, "So far, it is confirmed that one billion interstellar warships have been deployed to our universe using space delivery equipment."

They are distributed in different regions.

Currently, there are 38 battlefields that have already begun or are about to begin.

These thirty-eight battlefields are almost all centered around our Xiaolong Interstellar Empire's important military, resource, and trade facilities.

On average, each battlefield deploys around 20 million interstellar warships.

The largest number of interstellar warships ever investigated in a single battlefield exceeded one hundred million.

Several of the attacks focused on the Holy Elf Empire's second star system, the Fairy Federation's tribal universe, as well as two other resource-producing star systems and an industrial base.

The average military strength is over 50 million interstellar warships.

In response, we have dispatched our JF-17 Thunder Legion fleet and allied forces to provide support.

"Currently, all battlefields are still under our control, and there are no major problems," Marshal Shen Bing reported.

Charlotte frowned slightly and said, "There are now less than 20 million interstellar warships remaining in the Dragon Cluster."

"Is it really possible to withstand a billion interstellar warships without any problem?"

It's clear that Charlotte has some doubts about this.

Marshal Shen Bing didn't hide anything. She said directly, "Although we only have 20 million interstellar warships, we have deployed a large number of Angel City fortresses in these important star systems."

In addition, there are a series of defensive measures, such as starfighters, star drone swarms, and star mechs.

This greatly strengthened the defenses of these areas.

With the addition of a starship, the strength ratio can be roughly 1 to 50.

Therefore, there shouldn't be any major problems in the short term.

If there is any problem, it is that these three civilizations have begun to send small interstellar fleets to launch attacks on various less important areas.

These areas have weak defenses, so even if they are breached, they won't cause us much damage.

However, it's not good for news to get out that some places have fallen.

Fortunately, we have a large number of interstellar mercenaries to assist us in the battle, which has eased the tense situation!
