Shadows of the Deep Space

Celeste conducted a comprehensive scan of Kup before replying to Su Ming.

Su Ming immediately said to Celeste,

"It's about time. Send distress signals to Eta and all nearby bases!"

"Understood!"

Celeste flew to the control panel, extended a metal cable into it, simulated Kup's voice and appearance, and sent a rescue image to Eta and the others.

"Are you crazy?"

Kup and the others were stunned by the scene.

They totally couldn't understand what these Federation people were up to, disguising themselves to send pleas for help to so many locations at once.

Isn't this just asking for trouble?

"Crazy or not, it's not up to you to decide; the good show is about to begin."

Su Ming said gleefully.

"What are you going to do?"

Kup and the others felt uneasy hearing Su Ming's words, a very bad premonition surfaced in their hearts.

"That's not your concern, lock them up!"

Su Ming said indifferently.

"Yes!"

A group of soldiers immediately responded and then restrained Kup and the others.

Su Ming then said to Celeste,

"Celeste, the Norton Fortress is up to you now."

"No problem!"

Celeste then controlled the Norton Fortress, activating the propulsion device as the entire fortress began moving towards the giant planet.

Buzz~

Suddenly, Su Ming's bracelet vibrated.

Su Ming glanced down and saw Rhein's communication request, then answered it.

"Rhein, what's going on?"

"Boss, come to the storage area quickly."

Rhein shouted excitedly.

"Alright!"

Su Ming promptly cut off the communication.

Mia immediately came over, smiling as she asked,

"What did Rhein and the others discover?"

"Not sure, let's go check it out."

Su Ming smiled and replied.

"Umtu, stay here. I'll go with Su Ming and the others to take a look!"

Mia said to Umtu.

"Yes!"

Umtu responded immediately.

Su Ming and Mia hurriedly left the central control room.

Ten minutes later.

Su Ming and Mia arrived at the warehouse area via the moving platform.

The entire warehouse area was over a hundred square kilometers, with ten large storage warehouses situated within.

"Wow! Such a big warehouse area!"

Mia gazed at the warehouse in front, her eyes sparkling.

"Boss, you are here!"

Rhein and the others rushed up excitedly.

"Yes. What's the situation?"

Su Ming asked calmly.

"These storage warehouses are full, but we haven't opened them yet!"

Rhein said excitedly,

Su Ming, hearing Rhein's words, immediately said,

"Let's go, take a look!"

"Okay!"

Rhein and the others responded excitedly.

Su Ming and the others arrived at the nearest warehouse.

They peered inside, seeing endless boxes wrapped in metal.

Mia's eyes went wide with excitement, her breathing became rapid as she exclaimed,

"Quick, open a few to see!"

"Alright!"

Rhein and the others immediately controlled the mecha to open several boxes.

Inside the boxes were unrefined Refined Iron Ore, Vibranium Ore, and soil containing rare minerals.

"Haha, we're rich!"

Mia laughed uncontrollably at the sight of these items.

"Let's check out the next warehouse."

Su Ming took a deep breath and said.

"Let's go!"

Mia responded eagerly.

They soon arrived at the next warehouse, as the doors opened, revealing metal boxes marked with weapon signs.

"Open them!"

Su Ming said to Rhein and the others.

"Okay!"

Rhein and the others went up and opened each box.

Inside were various missiles, Star Bombs, and Beam Rifles.

When they reached the innermost section, they found hundreds of Nuclear Bombs in various models.

"Boss, we seem to have hit the enemy's main artery."

Rhein said, laughing so hard he couldn't close his mouth.

"Indeed."

Su Ming didn't know what to say; if he was right, it should be the Heavenly Revelation Divine Country's recent massive push, stockpiling ammunition at the transit point.

"Haha, this is all mine."

Mia transformed into a money enthusiast, overjoyed.

"Ahem, Mia, please keep your composure."

Su Ming coughed and reminded Mia.

"Let's hurry and check the other warehouses!"

Mia said eagerly.

"Okay!"

Su Ming replied with a smile.

...

Over an hour later, Su Ming and the others had checked all the remaining storage warehouses.

These warehouses were full of boxes containing medicines, food, energy blocks, and other resources.

Su Ming took a deep breath and said to Mia,

"Mia, there are too many resources here. We might have to take the entire fortress back."

"Even better!"

Mia replied, even happier, knowing this small fortress wasn't cheap. She was tempted to use a calculator to calculate this trip's gains.

Su Ming heard this and couldn't help but smile bitterly. Taking the fortress would definitely cause nothing to be hidden.

But that's alright, let's take it one step at a time.

Code SCW-07, the giant planet's outer space.

Level 5 Mother Ship Lanton's central control room.

A man with a general uniform, sturdy build, slightly white hair at the temples, and sharp eyes sat steadily in the command chair.

A woman in a colonel's uniform with wheat-colored skin and a beautiful face respectfully spoke.

"Lord Eta, the planet's mining operation is about to conclude. We've excavated many ores and soils rich in Eternal Metal, which should refine into a substantial amount of Eternal Metal."
