Douluo Dalu 4: Ultimate Fighting

Chapter 991: Joining The Battlefield

TL: GoldenLung

Ying Luohong's heart was moved, "Do you think the academy is preparing the new generation of Shrek Seven Monsters to join the military?"

Tang Zhenhua said, "No doubt. Otherwise, with their age and strength, how could they have been selected? There are also many disciples at the Title Douluo level in the Inner Court, who are also young."

Ying Luohong said, "This year's military training seems to be both a test and a cultivation opportunity for them."

…

Seventh Fleet of the Douluo Federation, Third Dragon King-class escort ship.

Lan Xuanyu, and the other six people were in their own small meeting room in the rest area, looking at the star map.

They had received orders, and the instructions given to them were simple: explore, eliminate, and seek.

Without any specific targets, around fifty administrative resource stars were within the exploration range, with Celestial Steed Planet and Celestial Dragon Planet as the center. Upon discovering planets with abundant resources, reports were immediately made and the landing forces would go to steal resources and destroy military facilities.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

In other words, what Lan Xuanyu and his team had to do was the first step in the upcoming raid.

The third and fifth fleets had one day left before they respectively arrived at Celestial Steed Planet and Celestial Dragon Planet, while the seventh fleet would begin to disperse after their arrival.

Yan Xinghe gave Lan Xuanyu and his team high maneuverability tasks without any specific direction, allowing them to act according to their own ideas.

With this level of freedom, it was possible to demonstrate their tactical abilities and train further. Yan Xinghe had great confidence in their abilities. Lan Xuanyu was the Super God Fifty-Eight pilot. Although piloting a Meteor-class assault ship was different from a fighter jet, the handling of warships and fighter jets had the same origin. He had even more information about Lan Xuanyu than General Bai Ling. Therefore, they let him act freely.

When Lan Xuanyu received the mission instructions, he was pleasantly surprised. This kind of mission with freedom was where they could maximize their abilities. With the strength of their seven-member team, even if they encountered a strong opponent at Title Douluo level, they could still fight. Furthermore, star wars were not just about personal strength. On their Meteor-class assault ship this time, they carried as many as twelve antimatter missiles. This was not equipment that could be found on a standard military Meteor-class assault ship.

Yan Xinghe told him to let go and boldly act under the premise of safety precautions. Once their ammunition was depleted, they had to return to Dragon Three for resupply. The 500 large transport ships from the Federation were not coming empty-handed. They brought a large amount of energy and ammunition supplies. He was determined to take advantage of this opportunity to weaken the living forces of the Dragon Horse galaxy while obtaining enough resources.

Among these 500 large transport ships, fifty were equipped with the latest technology: space compression technology. The internal storage space was ten times that of ordinary transport ships and they were faster. This was the benefit brought by technological progress.

However, the manufacturing of space compression technology also required resources, and the most important resource was a kind of ore with space element properties. Proto Dragon Planet was a resource star that produced this kind of ore.

Lan Xuanyu pointed to the star map in front of him and said, "When the third and fifth fleets are in position to suppress the Celestial Dragon and Celestial Steed planets, our seventh fleet will spread out and take action. Therefore, the dozen or so planets around Celestial Dragon Planet and Celestial Steed Planet would be the main target of the main force. Since our mission is exploration, if we act with the main force, we will gain less. Therefore, let's go to more distant planets. Our main target will be resource stars. The administrative planet must be inhabited by various races of the Dragon Horse galaxy, and there must be strong individuals among them who we cannot handle alone. But it's different for resource stars. In the previous war, the coalition must have withdrawn a large number of troops, leaving these resource stars relatively empty, especially in more distant areas. These are our targets. We will destroy military facilities and provide coordinate guidance for our follow-up forces."

Qian Lei rubbed his hands together and said, "Boss, we'll do whatever it takes to get the job done. Finally, we can truly engage in star wars. Just thinking about it gets me excited!"

Lan Xuanyu said, "We still need to prioritize safety. Safety comes first. This opportunity is rare. Let's get ready to depart."

They had no specific deadline for completing the mission this time. Before the army retreated, they could act freely. Each time a specific target was reported to the army, the would gain merits based on the resulting resources and the damage inflicted upon the military facilities by the follow-up troops. Fifteen percent of the spoils would be credited to them, with the remainder going to the army.

If they brought back the resources themselves, one hundred percent of the merits would be credited to them.

Lan Xuanyu himself was already a major general and did not lack merits, but his partners could use them very effectively.

Moreover, this was also an opportunity to prove themselves to the Federation.

Ten minutes later, Yan Xinghe received an application from Lan Xuanyu, who requested an immediate expedition to a distant galaxy.

After thinking about it for a moment, Yan Xinghe agreed. Although the federal fleet had not yet completed the suppression of Celestial Dragon and Celestial Steed planets, most of the Dragon and Horse starships had already retreated towards the two main planets, so traveling through the Dragon Horse galaxy was not too dangerous.

By leaving earlier and going further, they would surely reap greater rewards. If they could obtain information on an entire resource star and to a certain extent, destroy military facilities, they would earn more merits.

Thus, the Thirty-Three Sky Wing warship quietly departed from the Dragon Three Warship with special approval and flew high with its wings extended, heading straight to the depths of the Dragon Horse galaxy for thirty-three days.

Lan Xunyu and his team had only seven members, so each person had to be responsible for an important system. Fortunately, piloting the Thirty-Three Sky Wing Warship was much easier than a federal-standard warship. Even one person could operate it.

Lan Xunyu sat at the main control position and decisively ordered the activation of the invisible mode flight. On the surface of the warship, all the wing patterns emitted a faint light, and in the next moment, it had silently disappeared into space.

Maintaining invisible flight consumed a lot of energy, but the Dragon Horse Galaxy was enemy territory. Although most of the enemy's warships were on the defensive, there was no guarantee that they would not encounter any. Invisible flight was the safest option, and the Thirty-Three Sky Wing Warship never lacked energy.

In this regard, they had a significant advantage, as Lan Xunyu was a Soul Forging Master at the Grandmaster level.

Back when they were on the Senluo Planet, Da Ming and Er Ming entrusted the Emerald Demon warship to him and told him that the Emerald Demon warship needed to use spirit refined metal as its power source. At that time, Lan Xuanyu thought, "If ordinary warships used spirit refined metals as their power source, would the effect be even better?" 

When he returned to Shrek Academy, he had asked Tang Zhenhua. Tang Zhenhua rolled his eyes and told him that of course it would be better, but who would be extravagant enough to use spirit refined metals as fuel? 

The Positive Circulation Source Soul Circuit of the reactor extracted the most essential energy from rare metals. During the extraction process, the higher the quality of the rare metal, the more energy was extracted. spirit refined metal had already undergone extraction and had its own spirituality, which meant that it had already squeezed out the energy of rare metals several times over, resulting in much higher efficiency. Naturally, it provided much more massive energy.

However, ordinarily speaking, even finding spirit refined metals for manufacturing armors was a hurdle, who would use this stuff as a power source?

Lan Xuanyu would!

His success rate in forging spirit refined metal was extremely high now, with a success rate of nearly 80%, and he forged at a fast pace. In the Thirty-Three Sky Wing warship, a forging room had been specifically prepared for him, where he could forge ordinary rare metals into spirit refined metal at any time.

As a power source, the metals didn't need to be Fuse Forged. Although Fuse Forged metals had better effects, Fuse Forging was complex, time-consuming, and had a high failure rate. It was more efficient to just forge spirit refined metal.
