CHAPTER 925: CHAPTER 403: PREPARATIONS FOR BATTLE (FIVE-IN-ONE) (6)

They immediately stopped chatting and walked in with a serious expression.

A large trapezoidal conference room came into view, which was already filled with many officers.

The lowest-ranking officers were at least majors.

As for the first row, it was filled with general-level officers, among whom were Admiral Roches of the Fifth Legion and Vice Admiral Isas of the Sixth Legion, who had previously suffered defeats.

Su Ming and Vickers exchanged a glance and headed to the second row.

Although the second row was mostly occupied by colonels, a few low-key major generals were also seated there.

Soon enough, Su Ming and Vickers took their seats and waited quietly.

As time passed by, more and more officers entered.

At this moment, Colonel Dylan sat down beside Su Ming and expressed his gratitude.

"Thank you, Commander, for your assistance."

"It’s nothing, we are all on the same side, there’s no need to spoil the harmony."

Su Ming replied nonchalantly.

"Yes, Commander!"

Colonel Dylan responded to Su Ming.

Just then, a series of firm and forceful footsteps were heard entering.

Everyone turned their heads to look.

Two men entered side by side: one, a burly man clad in black symbiotic armor with iron-hard muscles, sharp features, and fierce eyes that emitted a terrifyingly dangerous aura; and the other, dressed in gray symbiotic armor, broad-shouldered and rugged-faced with eyes like cold stars, emitting a powerful presence.

They were followed by several generals!

Vickers lowered his voice to introduce,

"Those two leading are Legion Commander Luo Kui of the Fifth Legion and Legion Commander Parakeent of the Sixth Legion."

"Hmm."

Su Ming nodded slightly.

The noisy conference room instantly fell silent.

Luo Kui and Parakens walked straight to the podium, while the generals behind them took seats in the first row.

At this moment, the conference room doors slowly closed.

Luo Kui scanned the officers present and spoke in a rough voice.

"Allow me to introduce myself. I am Legion Commander Luo Kui of the Fifth Legion, and from now on, I will serve as the Commander of the Danube Star Sea Combat Command Center, with Legion Commander Parakens of the Sixth Legion as the Deputy Commander."

Clap! Clap!

The officers of the Fifth and Sixth Legions applauded enthusiastically.

Su Ming and the others also raised their hands to clap.

Luo Kui nodded in satisfaction and continued speaking.

"All of you present are from various legions, and we are not very familiar with each other, so let’s start from the first row with everyone introducing themselves so we can get to know one another."

As Luo Kui finished speaking.

The first person in the first row, a middle-aged man with a gloomy expression and slanted bangs, stood up and said indifferently.

"First Legion, Vice Admiral Alifei."

After Alifei introduced himself, a slightly older female general beside him stood up.

"Second Legion, Major General Lin Wanyi."

...

Luo Kui and Parakens watched the self-introductions of these generals with flickering eyes.

These generals were drawn from various legions, and their combat power significantly impacted the allied forces.

Generally, well-known generals tend to be powerful. Even if they haven’t met them in person, they have heard their names.

Therefore, by listening to their self-introductions, they could roughly deduce their strength. However, none stood out as exceptionally powerful.

At this moment, Su Ming was diligently noting down the names and information of each general. He noticed that every legion had deployed at least one major general, and some had sent several generals.

Soon, it was Su Ming and Vickers’s turn for self-introduction. Following the order, Su Ming stood up and said,

"Thirteenth Legion, Major General Su Ming."

Vickers also stood up and said,

"Thirteenth Legion, Vickers Major General."

Upon hearing Su Ming and Vickers’s self-introductions, Luo Kui immediately spoke.

"You’re from the Thirteenth Legion?"

"Yes."

Su Ming responded with composure.

"Very well, next."

Luo Kui nodded.

Then those colonels also stood up for their self-introductions.

After sitting down again, Su Ming looked thoughtfully at Luo Kui; it was clear that his extra question implied something significant.

If his guess was correct, it was very likely due to their legion commander. It seemed that the Thirteenth Legion still held a respectable position.

After a while, everyone had introduced themselves.

Luo Kui then addressed everyone.

"Alright, now that everyone knows each other, let’s get down to business. We’ve come to the Danube Star Sea to eliminate the Dark Star Empire and reclaim everything we’ve lost! The last time we lost, it was because the main forces of our Fifth and Sixth Legions were not present. Now that the troops have been redeployed, and with reinforcements from other legions, we are bound to win!"

Luo Kui spoke with great confidence.

The numerous officers of the Fifth and Sixth Legions shouted fervently on-site.

"Victory!"

...

Su Ming and others remained silent, listening quietly.

Luo Kui raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and the crowd gradually calmed down.

"Seeing your confidence reassures me. However, our weapons and personnel are not fully in place yet. Therefore, I give you a month for preparations. We will take action one month from now, so make the best use of this final time to recuperate."

Luo Kui addressed everyone.

"Yes!"

Su Ming and the others responded in unison.

"Alright, everyone disperses and go prepare!"

Luo Kui didn’t waste further words and waved his hand.

Upon hearing this, Su Ming and others stood up and left.

After stepping out of the conference room.

Su Ming’s wristband vibrated suddenly, and he glanced at it.

"Dear Major General Su Ming, your residence is arranged at Anning Street·A24 Villa, and the door key is your officer card."

"The residence arrangement is quite efficient."

Su Ming remarked to Vickers.

"Su Ming, would you like to go back and rest first? I have some matters to attend to."

Vickers nodded slightly and then spoke to Su Ming.

"No, I also have something to handle myself."

Su Ming said with a smile.

"Alright, see you later then."

After speaking with Su Ming, Vickers headed to the right-side elevator.

Su Ming walked towards the entrance.

He raised his wristband, found Mi Fei’s number, and dialed it.

"Sorry, the number you have dialed is temporarily unreachable."

The system’s voice came from the wristband at this moment.

Su Ming frowned slightly, confirming there was an issue since even the call couldn’t get through, so he quickened his pace to leave.

...

A little while later, Su Ming walked out of the combat command center into the bustling street.

Su Ming looked around for a moment, then headed towards the nearby shopping street.

Although this area had been cordoned off by the Federation Military Department, and the civilians from the Tasji Neutral Country had been expelled, many of Tasji’s upper-class nobles and wealthy individuals had opened shops here.

Su Ming intended to find a local to inquire about where the people had moved to.
