Mecha: Return of the Pioneers

Chapter 897 Auspicious Snow Wind!
Time passes step by step.

After watching the day and night alternate several times on the home planet of the Axs Empire, the clerks and civil servants walking back and forth between the imperial palace and the imperial military couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The orders from the palace, from His Royal Highness the Prince standing next to the empty throne, finally came to an end, no longer interfering with the Imperial Military's command of the various space fleets.

It's not that the prince is acting recklessly, but as the second prince of the empire, His Highness Arthas Axe has been on the battlefield since he was 14 years old. He started serving as an orbital paratrooper and has experienced no less than a hundred battles of all sizes.

During the most dangerous moment, his orbital airborne troop was hit hard by the rebels' fierce counterattack. Except for Arthas Axe and three orbital airborne soldiers, all the members died heroically.

Therefore, His Highness Arthas Axe, who was born as a grassroots soldier, had a considerable say in the imperial military after he came of age.

And this voice reached its peak after Alsace Axe entered the palace.

"Your Highness. The Prime Minister once again secretly asked Your Highness why you are ready?"

After dealing with the plan for the Imperial Fleet to reinforce the Seventh Planet, Arthas had just leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to rest when a eunuch spoke cautiously.

Arthas said nothing, but the eunuch did not dare to ask any further questions. He just silently took two steps back and stood aside.

The sunlight outside the window kept moving, leaving trails and ever-changing light in the room.

It was not until the setting sun cast a blood-red glow over the entire room that the Second Prince, who had closed his eyes to rest, slowly opened them.

“It’s so red!”

Arthas's voice startled the eunuch standing beside him, and he quickly asked someone to draw the curtains.

"No. No need! Just leave it at that!"

Arthas raised his right hand, signaling the eunuch not to do anything unnecessary, and said with a smile.

"I understand what those people are thinking, but now is not the right time. The empire has not yet been covered in such a brilliant red!"

"Brilliant red?"

Upon hearing this, the eunuch's legs almost went weak and he collapsed to the ground.

As an eyewitness, he saw with his own eyes that night that after the late emperor laughed three times and died suddenly, the second prince Arthas led his army to rush into the palace and kill people half an hour later.

That day, in the palace and even in the imperial capital, there were shrill screams, vicious curses and fearful pleas for mercy, lingering for a long time in the hearts of the survivors who experienced that day.

The imperial family, nobles of all sizes who were married to the imperial family, anyone who could lay a hand on the throne, anyone who could influence the throne, any person, organization, or family, were all slaughtered by the second prince and became part of the river of blood flowing on the land of the imperial capital.

"Don't you think red is beautiful?"

Arthas stood up and looked at the eunuch whose legs were weak.

"Yes, yes... yes, yes! Red is very beautiful!"

The eunuch gritted his teeth and tried hard not to be so frightened.

Arthas ignored the eunuch and walked out of the room slowly. He walked all the way to the relief called God and remained silent.

According to the plan, the fleet near the mother planet should have already started to set off for the seventh planet, right? !
In a certain space, the Yukikaze Sea Mist battleship, with optical camouflage deployed, was carefully patrolling the space it was responsible for, trying hard to bring any movement in the space within its observation range.

At the same time, in the quantum network shared by the mind core, Xuefeng diligently uploaded all the data he observed and collected, and performed the task meticulously according to the mission requirements.

"It's 18006 local time in the Ax Empire. The Ax Empire's Third Fleet in the H1 space domain has begun to move. Judging from the target route and direction, the Ax Empire's Third Fleet's target is the Seventh Planet."

Xuefeng carefully compared the data he observed several times before starting the sending program and submitting the report. Xuefeng breathed a sigh of relief and had the opportunity to look around.

Looking over, I found that not far away, Iona, with silver hair and wearing a sailor suit, was looking at the screen with a sad face.

"Hmm? Iona. What are you doing? You look so sad."

Xuefeng walked briskly to Iona's side and looked curiously at the screen in front of Iona.

"Well, report, no."

Iona pursed her lips and frowned slightly.

In fact, in the quantum network, the mind cores only need to forward everything they observe to their sisters who are also mind cores.

Now, in addition to the mind cores, all the observed intelligence needs to be compiled into documents and submitted to commanders such as He Ming, Sergei, Kujo Lisa and Natal Bakilulu for review.

This made the little guy in the core of the mind frown for a long time.

Xuefeng also took a lot of effort to learn how to write a report.

Look, Xuefeng said proudly, clapping the tablet.

"I'll help you! Iona."

After saying that, Xuefeng stretched his head and saw the scene on the screen in front of Iona.

"Which area is this? It seems to be the Q2 space area? No! Iona, as far as I remember, there is no imperial fleet stationed in the Q2 space area?"

Iona shook her head and pointed with her little hand, and a picture appeared.

“Ah? This… this is?!”

Xuefeng was startled and his eyes widened.

A few minutes later, an alarm sounded from the quantum network, causing King Kong to immediately stand up, walk to He Ming, and project the information from the quantum network directly in front of He Ming.

"Admiral! This is what Xuefeng and Iona found in the space near the home planet of the Ax Empire."

"Huh? What is this? The Golden Eagle?!"

When He Ming saw the projected image clearly, his expression changed slightly.

In the projection image, an asteroid with a rugged surface covered with craters was orbiting the home planet of the Axs Empire along its current orbit.

As the asteroid rotates, a huge crater covered with cracks appears on the screen, as if it had experienced a devastating explosion not long ago.

Originally, this is the most common thing in the universe.

Any asteroid flying along its orbit has the potential to collide with other celestial bodies at some point.

But this huge pit obviously looks different.

Because, in that huge pit, a shadow was vaguely emerging.

A golden shadow with a lion's body, dragon's claws, and dragon's tail vaguely appeared at the bottom of the pit.
