Space Odyssey from Abandoned Mining Space Station

While Chen Ming and Dusk's robots were battling.

The factory manager hurriedly contacted the chairman once again, but this time it was not the chairman who answered the communication, but his secretary.

"Mr. Lu, the chairman is in a meeting now. Is there anything you can tell me?"

The factory manager knew that the chairman's secretary was well-informed, so he directly asked, "Has the rescue operation over at the Fourteenth Legion started?"

Just as the secretary was about to answer, the factory manager heard the chairman's voice coming closer from the other side.

"Xiao Lu, the operation at the Fourteenth Legion has already started."

"You must have called about wanting to be informed about this, right?"

The chairman understood the factory manager's intention, so the manager didn't continue speaking, waiting for the chairman to explain.

"I indeed forgot about this matter. Let me apologize first, but I just had a more important issue to deal with."

The factory manager knew revisiting the issue now was pointless, so he asked in line with the chairman's words, "What issue?"

"The company just learned about the situation at the Fourteenth Legion. There's bad news; they have internal problems. The originally assigned commander, Bai Quan, is missing."

"They claimed that Bai Quan suffered a serious injury and coma due to an accident while on duty, and the entire task of rescuing Chen Ming was handed over to someone else."

The factory manager frowned and asked, "What is that supposed to mean?"

"I also want to know what that is supposed to mean. That's why as soon as I learned about this situation, I had to prepare materials and hold an emergency meeting here to discuss the impact on the company. I'm too busy to handle other matters now."

"Honestly, this is no different from a setup."

"If Bai Quan ends up dead, then all the non-documented agreements we had with the Fourteenth Legion could all be disregarded by them."

"Sky Steel?"

"Yes, the Star System mining rights certificate has always been in our possession, and Sky Steel can indeed be said to be clearly ours."

"It's just that the military was previously blocking the Star System using underhanded means, which led to such a situation."

"So if the Fourteenth Legion wants to, they can do the same now."

"The company has been put in a difficult position, but we still cannot actively breach the previously agreed matters, otherwise the rationale will not be on our side. Having a conflict with the Fourteenth Legion now is absolutely not a good idea."

"We can only wait for this matter to end and listen to their explanation, see their next move."

The factory manager couldn't help but ask, "With things like this, is the company still not leaving?"

"The captain of the Conqueror Level we sent out said that although the person taking over Bai Quan's task is not as good as Bai Quan, it seems he has a capable subordinate who can continue the task."

"So, for those of us sitting in the rear, we should definitely follow the ideas from the front line."

"Moreover, we were only taking on a simple task to attract attention."

"Once we attract Dusk's main ships, that's it for us, we just run."

"OK, for now, I came out to get something, the meeting is not over, I don't have time to continue talking with you."

The chairman's voice faded away from the other end of the communication.

After confirming that there were no further questions from the factory manager, the secretary also terminated the communication.

On the factory manager's side, he said into another terminal communicating with Chen Ming, "Xiao Ming, I have some news here. It's an internal issue within the Fourteenth Legion."

He quickly explained the news he had just heard from the chairman into the terminal, but after speaking, he received no response.

"Xiao Ming? Xiao Ming?"

The factory manager suddenly felt the situation was not right, but at this point, he had no means to help Chen Ming, he could only sigh, sitting behind his desk, waiting anxiously.

While the factory manager was worried about Chen Ming's safety.

In outer space above the planet where Chen Ming was, the battle between Dusk and the United Fleet had reached a fever pitch.

At least a thousand warships from both sides have sunk in space, and the loss of cruisers has exceeded a hundred. The loss of destroyers and frigates is countless.

Even due to the scale of the battlefield, frigates are hardly effective, so far among the lost warships, destroyers have suffered the most loss.

However, no one, not even Dusk, cares about how many destroyers are lost now.

All participants in this battle, along with Dusk, focused their attention on the very core of the battlefield.

Which is the location of those seven main ships.

Dusk here has three main ships, all of the same model, the most common Radiation Level unmanned battleships in Dusk and human battlefields.

On the Fourteenth Legion's side, besides one Exemplar Level battleship from Speed Particle Technology.

The remaining three are two Offensive Level heavy battleships and one Legion Level aviation battleship that combines battleship and carrier functions that the Fourteenth Legion has deployed.

The two Offensive Levels are positioned at the center of the entire battle line, unfolding two giant crimson shields, blocking like two mountains of fire in front of Dusk.

While the Legion Level aviation battleship is located at the rear of the battle line.

Positioned behind the other main ships, and all the ships of the entire fleet.

If a carrier is under the protection of a fleet, being positioned at the very back of the fleet in this respect is not an issue.
