Chapter 29: Bob’s Strategy

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Ten million kilometers away from Planet Terra, the full S Battleship Fleet from Planet Bhutler was using warp drive engines to travel beyond the speed of light. According to the speed of the fleet, they would reach Planet Terra in at most half an hour.

At noon, Bob sent a communication request to the S Battleship Fleet.

“Reporting to Captain Jack, most of the soldiers from the Helkan fleet are currently having their lunch break. There are only two small battleships patrolling the outer space of Planet Terra. In the next few hours, Captain Jack can launch an attack on Planet Helka’s guards.”

“Alright, I understand.”

Captain Jack looked very excited when he received the message from Bob.

It was as if he had already subdued Planet Terra.

Meanwhile, the staff officers inside the S Battleship were still persuading Jack.

“Captain, we can’t take the risk. This might be a trap laid by Planet Helka.”

“That’s right. After all, Planet Terra has so many mineral resources, so how can they only send one transport fleet but no corvettes? That Bob is probably lying.”


At that moment, Jack was currently fantasizing about taking down Planet Helka after he took back Planet Terra, but his military advisors had disturbed him.

Thus, Jack was very unhappy.

Previously, when he was reprimanded by the upper echelons of Planet Bhutler, he had been holding back his anger. Now that he was preparing to attack Planet Terra, his subordinates were still obstructing him.

He even suspected that his subordinates were all under the upper echelons of Planet Bhutler.

“Since you are worried, send a reconnaissance fleet to Planet Terra via spatial hyperdrive to take a look. After knowing the distribution of military power on Planet Terra, you will naturally know whether Bob is telling the truth or not.”

“Opportunities are fleeting in interstellar wars. If you are overly cautious in everything you do, you will miss the opportunity. As a result, you will be passive in the subsequent battles.”

“Pass down my orders. The reconnaissance fleet is to depart immediately.”

Jack’s proposal was relatively reasonable.

Thus, all the staff officers agreed with Jack’s suggestion.

Jack’s order was very quickly conveyed.

Then, the reconnaissance fleet immediately advanced at full speed.

At that moment, on Planet Terra…

In the command room…

Brian was currently discussing tactics with Bob and Harris.

Brian looked at Bob, puzzled.

“Bob, didn’t you say we were going to ambush them? Why did you suggest exposing 20 Rising Fighter Jets to the S Battleship Fleet first?”

Bob replied to him confidently.

“Reporting to the Overlord, it’s like this.

“Jack should have completely believed my words. However, his fleet has many staff officers. Some of these staff officers are loyal to Jack, while some are traitors arranged by Jack’s arch-enemies on Planet Bhutler.”

“When I was communicating with Jack earlier, I intentionally revealed a flaw. This flaw is also very simple. Planet Terra is an important resource planet to Planet Helka. Currently, Planet Helka’s resources are mainly supplied by Planet Terra. Thus, to Planet Helka, it’s very unreasonable that there are no corvettes near such an important transport fleet.”

“Any professional staff officer will definitely find this unreasonable.”

“After that, the S Battleship Fleet will probably send their reconnaissance fleet to investigate the distribution of the forces on Planet Terra.”

“I have communicated with Harris. The reconnaissance technology of the Bhutlerian fleet is considered advanced as the reconnaissance ships of Planet Bhutler can use energy detection to scan spaceships. This technology is enough to discover the Rising Fight Jets, which use a low-level concealment method. However, the other battleships, as well as weapons and equipment such as the mechas from Planet Helka were all coated with an invisibility coating when they were manufactured. With that technology, it is impossible to discover the hidden fleet from Planet Helka.”

“Thus, the message Jack received was that there were more than twenty battleships hidden around Planet Terra. When the time comes, Jack would suspect that I had lied to him. If Jack questions me, I have a way to deal with it.”

Then, Bob leaned over to Brian and told him his follow-up plan.

Brian kept nodding while he listened to Bob’s plan.

Then, he asked Harris a question.

“Harris, is there any follow-up reaction from the superliminal travel monitoring device?”

“Reporting to the Overlord, based on the trajectory of the S Battleship Fleet, we can determine that the entire S Battleship Fleet is using their warp drive engines to travel.”

“Just now, we discovered a small fleet in front of the S Battleship Fleet that is currently engaging in spatial hyperdrive. According to my observations, the end point of this small fleet’s trajectory is Planet Terra. According to Bob’s deduction, this small fleet should be the reconnaissance fleet from Planet Terra.”

The reconnaissance fleet from the S Battleship Fleet arrived somewhere in the sky five million kilometers away from Planet Terra. After carefully scouting the area using the equipment on the reconnaissance ship, the reconnaissance fleet captain reported to Jack.

“There is a transport ship resting on the surface of Planet Terra. Furthermore, there are many Helkan guards in the mining area. In addition, we found that there are more than twenty small fighter planes hidden in outer space near Planet Terra. They are most likely the troops from Planet Helka.”

After receiving the report from the captain of the reconnaissance fleet, he asked a question.

“Are there any other Helkan fleets near Planet Terra?”

“Reporting to the Captain, there are no other suspected fleets of Planet Helka.”

Jack thought for a moment and asked the monitor another question.

“Have you found any traces of superliminal travel near Planet Terra and Planet Helka?”

“Reporting to the Captain, traces of superliminal travel have been found.”

After that, in the conference room of the S Battleship Fleet’s main battleship, the staff officers were in an uproar.

“As expected, there is indeed a problem. Planet Helka has a fleet lying in ambush near Planet Terra.”

“Captain, there might be other fleets from Planet Helka lying in ambush near Planet Terra.”

“There’s something wrong with that Bob. We can’t trust him.”

Jack frowned while secretly remembering those who were anxious to raise objections.

“You don’t have to tell me. I can make my own judgment.”

“Captain…”

At this moment, Jack received another communication request from Bob.

“Reporting to the Captain, in an hour’s time, the guards on Planet Terra will end their lunch break. Why aren’t you here yet?”

Jack pretended to be angry.

“How dare you lie to me!”

“Captain, why did you say that? I’m loyal to Planet Bhutler. I’m telling the truth. I’ve never lied to you.”


“Then, explain to me why there are dozens of Helkan fighter jets hidden in outer space near Planet Terra.”

“What?”

Bob sounded extremely shocked.

Then, after a few seconds of silence, Bob spoke.

“Reporting to the Captain, I am currently only active in the mining area. I have never left the mining area, so I don’t know about the situation in outer space. However, I assure you that I have never lied to the Captain. I can prove it.”

Jack asked curiously.

“How can you prove that you didn’t lie to me?”

“Honorable Captain, I just bribed a Helkan guard who has a good relationship with me. I learned from him that the leaders of Planet Terra actually hid an energy diamond. They are preparing to hide the energy diamond in this batch of ore resources to transport back to Planet Helka. The industrial ships in the S Battleship Fleet should be able to detect the location of the energy diamond. In addition, I can use my position to create a huge explosion in the mining area on Planet Terra. At that time, if Planet Helka has other hidden fleets, they will expose themselves to protect the energy diamond.”

“Half an hour later, there will be a huge explosion on Planet Terra. That will be enough to prove my loyalty to Planet Bhutler.”
