The Seventh Base

Chapter 855: Chapter 163: The King’s Dispute

Lucas Star, the Federation Government received a video from the Mandala Star Fleet.

In the government conference hall, Federation officials were silent as they watched the massive fleet.

The video played several times before it was turned off, and King Richard spoke: “Any thoughts?”

“Your Majesty, Byron Star, being a member of the Star System Alliance, has stayed out of this war from the start. Now it seems they’re not only staying out of it but profiting from it.”

An official spoke: “Blue Star Energy Technology Group has bases on various planets, selling weapons widely. Byron Star is now selling weapons and equipment openly to the Star System Alliance and has relaxed some technological cooperation. All major planets are rushing to cooperate with them. Now, they disguise themselves as interstellar thieves, attacking planets of the Star System Alliance, looting the spoils of war while we fight on the front lines.”

As these words fell, the conference hall fell into noise, with everyone whispering among themselves.

This was indeed the thought in most people’s minds. Byron Star was indeed making war profits and was getting richer, while Lucas Star suffered heavy losses.

What’s more terrifying is that Byron Star, in a short period, has been catching up with the Lucas Star fleet.

“The equipment provided by Blue Star Energy Technology Group’s headquarters on Lucas Star is also of inferior quality and charged at a high price,” a military person spoke up: “I suggest calling for a Star System Alliance meeting to remove Lucas Star from the Star System Alliance, publicly expose Byron Star’s crimes, and confiscate Blue Star Energy Technology Group.”

“This war should have happened not long after General Gilson’s attack. I suspect the Byron Star fleet was monitoring the progress of this war all along. After the battle between General Gilson’s fleet and Mandala Star, they took advantage of it. It’s possible that the main ship commanded by General Gilson is even connected with the Byron Star fleet.”

Upon mentioning this, many indeed became suspicious. How could it be so coincidental that their surprise attack had just ended, and Xu Mo led the Black God Fleet to appear? One can only say that this was a premeditated event.

“Contact the Star System Alliance to prepare for a Star System Alliance meeting and send this video to all Star System Alliance members,” King Richard ordered. After that defeat, the Star System Alliance suffered a huge blow; it was no longer as united as before, and even several chaotic stars emerged.

Now, many planets are starting to cooperate with Byron Star.

King Richard’s previous war was mutually damaging, but who would have thought there was a third-party force?

Byron Star quietly rose during the war.

Thinking of this, King Richard felt suffocated. He had met Xu Mo several times, had even actively invited him, wanting to betroth Elizabeth to him, only to be refused by Xu Mo.

He thought of Xu Mo as someone arrogant and conceited and was curious to see what he could accomplish in the future, but who would have thought this would happen so quickly?

Moreover, he had not forgotten that a Skywalker was also missing on Byron Star.

The state of mind of King Richard at this point can be imagined.

“What about Blue Star Energy Technology Group?” Field asked.

“Deploy the military to control it and announce Blue Star Energy Technology Group’s sentence, to be fully taken over by the Byron Star Federation Government,” King Richard commanded. Even though Elizabeth still had shares in Blue Star Energy Technology Group.

But that was a contract in peacetime.

When this war broke out, Blue Star Energy Technology Group was already out of control. Could Xu Mo be expected to uphold contractual integrity?

“Yes.” Field turned and left to notify the military to control and take over Blue Star Energy Technology Group.

Although Xu Mo was extremely cunning, having already moved the core of Blue Star Energy Technology Group to Byron Star now, the Blue Star Energy Technology Group in Lucas Star Capital is just a base. But even so, it still has considerable assets to be taken over for military use.

This video quickly spread to the Star System Alliance, causing a huge sensation across various planets. Before this, no one expected Byron Star to have risen silently and disguised itself as the Black God Fleet, hunting in the starry sky.

Lucas University, Library.

Elizabeth still kept the habit of reading in the library, but there always seemed to be something missing.

Since Xu Mo left, the Lucas Star Library had lost its former liveliness.

Nan Xiangyi was also sitting beside Elizabeth. Although interstellar war broke out, it had not spread to Lucas Star, and Nan Xiangyi had not been taken away. If the war truly spread to Lucas Star, it would mean that the entire Star System Alliance was almost finished.

At this moment, two figures hurriedly approached, Ize and Carter, who went straight to sit opposite Elizabeth.

“What happened?” Elizabeth looked at the two and asked, sensing something had occurred based on their expressions.

Carter handed the Communicator to Elizabeth, which was playing a video, and Nan Xiangyi, curious, also glanced over.

“What is this?” Elizabeth asked, puzzled after a moment.

“The fleet led by Xu Mo attacked the Mandala Star stationed fleet on Odin Mountain Star,” Carter said, causing Elizabeth’s heart to tremble.

The fleet led by Xu Mo?

Nan Xiangyi was also filled with curiosity, looking at both Ize and Carter.

“Since the war began, Byron Star has been rapidly developing thanks to the technology of Blue Star Energy Technology Group, establishing cooperation with many planets and forming a fleet disguised as the Black God Fleet to hunt in the starry sky. Previously, planets like Camp Star and Lancelot Star were also attacked by Xu Mo’s fleet,” Carter continued, dropping a bombshell.
