Chapter 141 The Advance Team of the Mechanical Group
Zhou Shen said, "My dad said the advance team of the Machine Race hasn't officially started operations yet."
"But their envoy, Silver Star, died in Shanhe Prefecture. If the Mechanical Race receives this news, they might take action against Jiangcheng."
"The commander of this 30,000-strong advance team is Yin Xing's older brother, Yin Yue! He has the strength of a half-step eighth-level expert."
"Ye Feng, what do you think?" Cao Keyuan suddenly asked.
Ye Feng took a sip of cola.
He stood up, walked to the window, and turned his back to the crowd.
"That piece of land!" His voice was completely calm. "I led my men to conquer it."
"Anyone who wants to take it, ask the knife in my hand first."
No one spoke in the living room.
Cao Keyuan looked at Ye Feng's young face.
Ye Feng is not the kind of person who would swallow his anger if he was bullied.
He's not the kind of person who would reason with someone if they robbed him of his things.
His reasoning was very simple.
If you want it, come and take it.
If you can take it, it's yours.
If you can't take it, leave your life behind.
"My dad is still gathering information," Zhou Shen said.
"He said if the machine race really makes a move, he'll find a way to send reinforcements. But what about the Kyoto central command..."
Zhou Shen didn't finish his sentence, but everyone understood what he meant.
We can't count on Kyoto.
Those big shots sitting in the capital only draw lines on the map, and once they've drawn those lines, they think the world is at peace.
They wouldn't care who risked their lives to get that land.
They wouldn't care how many loyal bones are buried beneath those three hundred miles of their homeland.
All they care about is whether they can sign an agreement with the Machine Race.
How much benefit can be gained after the agreement is signed?
"Alright." Ye Feng waved his hand. "I know, you can go back now."
"Please thank your father for me! I've remembered this!"
Zhou Shen opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something.
However, to his delight was...
At least today's task is completed.
This can be considered as establishing a genuine friendship with this newly powerful figure in Shanhe Prefecture.
He looked at Ye Feng's calm face, but in the end, he said nothing.
He nodded, turned and left.
The door closed, and the living room became quiet again.
Cao Keyuan and the other three stared at Ye Feng.
Seeing that Ye Feng didn't say anything, they couldn't help but start arguing.
"Ye Feng! Tell me! What are you going to do?"
"This is difficult to handle! If we hit them, it would be blatant disobedience!"
"No way! I can't swallow this insult!"
"Damn it! Those bastards in Kyoto!"
The four of them started pacing anxiously in circles.
Ye Feng took a big gulp of the cola in his hand.
"Disobeying orders is absolutely unacceptable!"
"At least we can't openly disobey orders!"
"But I can't give my territory to others! Especially not to other races!"
"What advance team! If they all disappear, then nothing has happened, right?"
"After all! The Ten Thousand Mountains are teeming with strange beasts! And spacetime rifts are frequent!"
The four understood what Ye Feng meant.
My eyes lit up.
……
Deep in the southern mountains of Jiangcheng, high in the sky.
Dozens of silver-white warships hovered in the sky.
Each ship is hundreds of meters long, and its hull is covered with spirit array patterns.
They floated silently.
The warships of the Machine Race are themselves part of the Machine Race's body; they are living metal.
The lead warship was exceptionally large, stretching for thousands of meters.
Inside the bridge.
A mechanical creature stood in front of a huge porthole, hands behind its back, gazing in the direction of Shanhe Prefecture in the distance.
His body was taller than Silver Star's, and his silver-white metal shell was inlaid with golden patterns.
He is Silver Moon.
Silver Star's older brother.
A core member of the Silvermoon family and the supreme commander of this advance team.
"Have you received a message from Vice Commander Silver Star?"
His voice came from within his body, devoid of any emotion.
A mechanical officer stepped forward from behind and lowered his head.
"Reporting back to you, sir, we have received it. Deputy Commander Yinxing said that Shanhe Prefecture is strongly opposed to handing over the enclave."
He also said that he was being held under house arrest by the Lord of Shanhe Prefecture and was unable to leave for the time being.
Silver Moon pondered for a moment.
His blue eyes suddenly lit up.
"Household confinement?" Silver Moon repeated the two words, mockingly.
"The Lord of Shanhe Prefecture, a mid-stage seventh-tier Venerable, has imprisoned my brother, Yinyue?"
The officer remained silent, awaiting his instructions.
Silvermoon turned around, her gaze sweeping over the neatly lined-up mechanical officers on the bridge, and spoke slowly.
"I know Silver Star's strength best. He's at the peak of the sixth rank, with over seven million units of vital energy and several times the mental power of others at the same rank."
"If he wants to run, those few Martial Venerables from Shanhe Prefecture can't stop him."
"Those few worthless cowards think they can detain the number one prodigy of my mechanical race?"
"What a huge joke!"
The surrounding mechanical officers couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Ha ha!!!"
Laughter erupted throughout the ship.
They certainly have the right to mock Shanhe Prefecture.
Their Silver Star Deputy Commander was capable of holding his own against a half-step eighth-tier Martial God in a head-on confrontation.
That combat power!
Unless the God of War personally intervenes!
Does Shanhe Prefecture have a Martial God?
of course not!
"He's just making an excuse."
Yinyue walked back to the porthole and looked in the direction of Shanhe Prefecture in the distance.
I couldn't help but smile knowingly.
He understands his younger brother.
Arrogant, belligerent, and disdainful of others, just like he was in his youth.
The claim of being "under house arrest" is false.
This was to give him an excuse to send troops.
Since Silver Star wants to fight!
Then let's fight!
My own younger brother!
Pamper yourself!
"Pass on my orders." Silver Moon's voice suddenly rose, carrying an unquestionable authority.
All the mechanical officers on the bridge stood at attention, their bodies ramrod straight.
"All troops, march on! Destination: Qinglong Fortress."
"Sir, what about Vice Commander Silver Star? Shouldn't we send someone to meet him?"
"A backup?" Silver Moon turned around and stared straight at the officer.
"Silver Star needs backup? He's at the peak of the sixth rank; in a place like Jiangcheng, who can stop him?"
"He is the heir of the Silver Moon family, a peerless genius capable of defeating a seventh-tier opponent! He is not an infant who needs protection."
"But sir," the officer hesitated, "if war really breaks out, what about the human race?"
"Humans?" Silver Moon's eyes flickered a few times.
"The human race has granted us this enclave. The agreement is signed and stamped."
"That land belongs to our Machine Race!"
"What's wrong with us attacking Jiangcheng and taking back what belongs to our machine race?"
"Besides, Jiangcheng disobeyed orders. Is there a problem with us teaching this disobedient subject a lesson on behalf of the central government in the capital?"
The officer fell silent and bowed his head to receive the order.
Silver Moon turned around and looked at the dozens of warships outside the porthole.
Each ship was filled with elite warriors of the Machine Race.
Thirty thousand troops are enough to flatten the mountains and rivers.
Not to mention a small fortress.
Qinglong Fortress.
I heard it's territory that Jiangcheng recently recaptured.
With only a few thousand defenders, how could they possibly stop the machine race's massive army?
"Let's go." Silver Moon waved.
The warship fleet has been activated.
The spirit array patterns lit up with a dazzling blue light, the engine hummed, and the entire void trembled.
Dozens of silver-white warships slowly turned around.
They headed towards the Azure Dragon Fortress.
It sped up faster and faster, disappearing into the southern horizon in the blink of an eye.
Silver Moon stood in front of the porthole.
"I hope those people in Jiangcheng aren't too weak. Otherwise, this war will be too boring."
But what he didn't know was...
His beloved brother is dead.
He died at the hands of a human named Ye Feng.
And he will soon meet Ye Feng.
