Mike’s assurance finally placated the other factions.
"Alright, we’ll trust you one more time. But if you dare use us as cannon fodder again, we will never trust another fleet from Sea Eagle Country!"
"Don’t worry. I’m prepared to livestream the entire operation, so you have nothing to fear!" Mike stressed. "Besides, the one who deceived you last time was Bao Mu. It had nothing to do with our Sea Eagle Country Fleet!"
Hearing Mike mention Bao Mu, someone in the allied force asked curiously, "Speaking of which, what exactly happened at Xi’an Base? You all joined forces and were still defeated?"
Mike’s brow furrowed slightly, but to demonstrate his sincerity, he explained what had really happened.
After hearing Mike’s account, the other fleet commanders were stunned.
"Xi’an Base was really wiped out completely?"
"In other words, the Aircraft Carrier Base and Peach Blossom Base are that strong? Can we really beat them, even if we all team up?"
"They are very strong, but it was our first time encountering those high-performance vessels. We weren’t prepared, and they caught us completely off guard," Mike answered truthfully.
"How many of those high-performance vessels did they have back then?" someone asked.
"Only two," Mike replied. "But now that they’ve mastered the retrofitting technology, with Dragon Country’s manufacturing power, they’ll surely be able to upgrade their entire fleet! We can’t afford to hesitate. The longer we wait, the stronger they’ll get!"
"I see. We have to strike as soon as possible. Otherwise, the entire Blue Star will fall under the rule of Dragon Base!"
"Exactly. This time, we must all work together. We absolutely cannot let Dragon Base dominate Blue Star!"
Having convinced the others, Mike breathed a sigh of relief, though he was still complaining internally. ’Fuck, I’m cleaning up Bao Mu’s mess again!’
At that moment, the patrol boat that had been monitoring Mike’s fleet reported their unusual activity.
"Captain, the enemy suddenly dispatched a destroyer to drive us off. They’ve also started moving again—in the direction of our base!"
Long Zhan was taken aback for a moment when he received the report, then he sneered, "Are they coming to attack us again?"
"Surely they wouldn’t be so reckless?" Even the soldier on surveillance duty thought the Sea Eagle Country Fleet’s move was incredibly foolish.
"You never know. The stronger we appear, the more I fear they won’t be able to sit still. They might just unite with other factions to besiege us." Long Zhan shook his head. "Keep following them. Report immediately if you see them rendezvous with other fleets."
"Yes, Captain!"
"Okay. Stay safe," Long Zhan added before ending the call. He immediately shared the news with Ren Yuanyang and the others.
"It seems they really couldn’t sit still," Ji Yizhi was the first to reply.
"In that case, let’s just shatter their forces for good. It’ll save us the trouble of them constantly interfering with our development," Ren Yuanyang proposed.
"Understood. We will deploy all our reinforced ships and submarines to crush the invading enemy in a single, decisive blow," Wang Jun replied in a heavy voice.
"Good. You handle it. I just hope that after this, no one will interfere with our development ever again," Ren Yuanyang replied.
"We guarantee the mission’s success!" Wang Jun and the two others replied in unison.
"I’m logging off. Carry on," Ren Yuanyang said, then went offline.
Long Zhan asked curiously, "Old Wang, Master upgraded our submarines?"
He’d been busy with operations out at sea, so he didn’t know that Ren Yuanyang had just upgraded the submarines.
Wang Jun nodded. "The upgraded submarines are incredibly powerful."
"Can they actually navigate while submerged? The current hydrographic conditions are extremely complex," Long Zhan said with a slight frown.
"If it couldn’t travel underwater, would it even be called a submarine?" Wang Jun rolled his eyes. "You know perfectly well how powerful the ships are after Master upgrades them. The same goes for the submarines."
Wang Jun didn’t keep him in suspense and proceeded to describe the capabilities of the upgraded submarines.
Long Zhan was completely stunned. "Unimpeded travel through any waters? Master’s a badass!"
Long Zhan had absolutely no doubt that the submarines Ren Yuanyang upgraded would have this capability.
"With the submarines Master upgraded, however many ships they bring, that’s how many we’ll sink," Ji Yizhi said with a smile.
Wang Jun nodded slightly. "The Sea Eagle Country Fleet won’t be coming alone for this attack. Keep a close watch on the waters around Dragon Base. Other fleets are probably assembling."
"Understood. I’ll arrange for patrols to expand their search radius immediately," Long Zhan replied grimly.
「As the United Fleet closed in on Dragon Base, Peach Blossom Base welcomed its first group of visitors.」
The Banyan Forest was astonishing, but what surprised them even more was the Duckweed underneath it.
Although they were only allowed to walk along the perimeter, the visitors still chose to disembark from their boats and step onto the Duckweed.
They were once again left marveling at the feeling of solid support beneath their feet.
Before leaving, some of the visitors asked Lu Jiamei, "Are we allowed to talk about this place in the regional channel?"
"Of course. Now that we’re open for tours, we have no intention of asking you to keep it a secret," Lu Jiamei replied with a slight nod.
"Does that mean we can livestream or record some videos?"
"Of course," Lu Jiamei answered.
The visiting survivors were kicking themselves. They hadn’t livestreamed their tour of Peach Blossom Base or even taken any videos.
At this thought, all the visitors immediately pulled out their phones and started recording.
The photos they took were uploaded directly to the regional channel.
