The Last Commander of the Red Alert

ALL NOVELS' LIST | Chapter List: The Last Commander of the Red Alert XXX-----XXX-----XXX-----XXX The venue for the Grand Competition was va

The venue for the Grand Competition was vast, occupying an area equivalent to a base city on Earth!

Despite its enormous size, the place was solely designated for the Grand Competition, showcasing the Fengbao Empire's significant emphasis on the event.

The Grand Competition consisted of dozens of arenas, with emperors typically only participating in the final championship, rarely making appearances during the preliminary rounds.

As the emperor's airship appeared in the sky, excitement erupted below. The participants, their faces flushed with anticipation, hoped to catch the emperor's attention by demonstrating excellence in the competition, possibly earning a prestigious position in the imperial court.

Such incidents had occurred before. In a previous competition, an individual with mediocre combat skills but unparalleled stealth abilities had caught the emperor's eye. Despite eventually losing, the emperor had personally recruited him as a subordinate. Now, the recruit was rumored to be heading a department, earning envy from many.

Standing on the airship, Yun Ru and others observed as Emperor Fengbao gestured, causing the surrounding airships to seemingly vanish, only to reappear in mid-air!

Fengpiter, observing Yun Ru and the others' composed expressions, couldn't help but marvel inwardly. The first time he witnessed this technology, he had been truly astonished. However, considering Yun Ru was the chief scientist of the Red Alert Empire, he speculated that she might possess similar technology, easing his surprise.

"Chief Yun, this is our Fengbao Empire's creation, the Holographic Simulation Imaging Technology. What do you think?" Fengbao Emperor inquired.

"Truly worthy of Chief Yun, to instantly identify the flaw in this technology," praised Emperor Fengbao, acknowledging Yun Ru's insight.

This technology, while impressive in appearance, relied on cameras around the airship to scan the surroundings, simulating images within the airship. Once these cameras lost monitoring, the holographic display became static, a mere illusion.

Though seemingly sophisticated, the technology wasn't exceptionally advanced. Yun Ru found it puzzling why Fengbao Empire would showcase it, but after observing some technological competitions, she understood—the technological tree of Fengbao Empire was a bit skewed!

Fengbao Empire excelled in spatial technology, lagging only slightly behind the Red Alert Empire. This was already a remarkable achievement, considering the Red Alert Empire's spatial technology had been built upon the foundations of the Qiluo Civilization, standing on the shoulders of giants.

However, in various other technological aspects, Fengbao Empire's progress was dismal. Virtual technology, for example, hadn't reached the capability of creating a comprehensive virtual world spanning an entire galaxy, a feat achievable by empires like Rota at a minimum.

Not only in virtual technology but in many other fields, Fengbao Empire's development was slow. Yun Ru couldn't help but wonder how Fengbao Empire had managed to survive and thrive despite the skewed technological advancements, a peculiar situation reminiscent of the Qiluo Civilization's history.

In theory, given the Fengbao Empire's style, fully developing the Martial Technology Grand Competition should not have turned out this way.

Yun Ru continued observing the technological competitions, and as one event concluded, she finally noticed a problem.

Many fundamental theories in Fengbao Empire remained undiscovered. Without these foundational theories, attempting breakthroughs in certain technologies became exponentially challenging.

While she observed, Yun Ru felt no obligation to point out their flaws.

Finding the technological competitions uninteresting, Yun Ru shifted her focus to the martial contests.

Fengbao Empire stipulated that participants in the Grand Competition must be at least adults and not exceed 50 years old. Individuals over 50 without notable achievements in the Grand Competition would have to sustain themselves through other means.

These participants showcased formidable strength, with the strongest among them reaching Ninth-level Peak and appearing deceptively young, in their forties.

Without surprises, this individual was likely to secure the championship in this Martial Grand Competition.

"Suggestions for the young talents of our Empire, Chief Yun?" Emperor Fengbao suddenly asked.

Yun Ru pondered and replied, "Your country's technology is excellent, surpassing our Empire in certain aspects."

This was a diplomatic compliment, sparing them the harsh truth.

Emperor Fengbao chuckled with a hint of pride. The Grand Competition was his brainchild, and its recent success had significantly elevated Fengbao Empire's strength.

Fengpiter couldn't bear to look. He knew about the Red Alert Empire's miraculous technology like the Red Alert World, making Fengbao Empire seem lacking.

He hadn't informed the emperor about this, planning to address it later, allowing the emperor some time to process. Unexpectedly, the emperor was in such a hurry to showcase the Empire's technology, dealing a resounding blow to their face.

For the young people of Fengbao Empire, the Grand Competition provided the best path upward, whether in martial skills or technology. As long as they could showcase themselves through this competition, a bright future awaited.

At this moment, Yun Ru received a sudden communication from a Red Alert soldier, the same one left behind in the small Warship on the outskirts of Fengbao Empire.

"Commander, we've discovered a natural Wormhole on the map. We sent Robots to test it, but we lost the signal. Preliminary estimates suggest that the other side of this natural Wormhole is no longer within Fengbao Empire's range and is also beyond Red Alert Empire's range."

Yun Ru's eyes lit up. This meant that the natural Wormhole might connect to other empires or perhaps an entirely new star domain like the Feathered Warbler Empire?

For the empires, this was good news.

Fengbao Empire had signed alliances, making it unacceptable to directly target allies within the Human Galactic Domain. However, in other regions, such concerns wouldn't apply.

Currently, Red Alert Empire and Feathered Warbler Empire were in a ceasefire. If a new enemy emerged, they would have something to do.

"Dispatch personnel immediately to assess the situation on the other side and report back promptly!"
