Shadow of Deep Space

Chapter 461: See through but don’t tell the truth

When Su Ming saw Irelia's well-organized arrangements, he couldn't help but smile.

Irelia seemed to sense something and turned to look at Su Ming.

Su Ming coughed immediately and spoke to Rhine and others.

"Did you hear everything clearly?"

"Listen clearly."

Rhine and others responded quickly.

"Then disperse!"

Su Ming quickly waved his hand and asked everyone to go about their own business.

Rhine and others left in a hurry immediately.

Su Ming then said to Irelia.

"Senior Irelia, let me show you the room you're staying in."

"Okay, thank you, Commander Su Ming."

Irelia replied politely.

"Of course. This way, please."

Su Ming then led Irelia out of the command room and headed towards the living area.

A moment later, in the living area.

Su Ming took Irelia to open a room, walked in and introduced it.

"This is a standard one-living room, three-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment. It has a sofa, desk, towels, toothbrushes, and so on. Do you like it? If you need anything, just tell me and I'll have someone prepare it for you."

Irelia glanced around the room. It was very spacious, and the facilities and items were very good. She then said with satisfaction.

"pretty good."

"I live next door. You can always contact me if you have any questions."

Su Ming said with a smile.

Irelia heard Su Ming's words and immediately asked.

"Commander Su Ming, are you being so nice to me as a special favor, or are you being so nice to everyone?"

When Su Ming heard what Irelia said, the smile on his face froze, and then he explained.

"Of course it's good for everyone."

"I didn't expect that Commander Su Ming is quite philanthropic."

Irelia praised with a smile.

"It's okay. Isn't it normal for a superior to be considerate of his subordinates?"

When Su Ming heard Irelia's words, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. Why did these words sound so awkward, making him seem like the King of the Sea.

"Then Commander Su Ming, please go and do your work. There's no need to take me around."

"Okay, I'll leave first."

"Walk slowly."

Irelia nodded slightly and replied.

Su Ming turned and left the room.

When he came out, he also smiled and shook his head.

Then he raised his bracelet and sent a report to Xiguang Laboratory.

This time was different from the previous ones. He was going on a private voyage, so he still had to report to Xiguang Laboratory. In addition, just in case, he wanted to bring Ilinya with him.

Soon a reply message popped up on his bracelet.

"Dear Admiral Su Ming, your report has been approved. Xiguang Laboratory will send Dr. Boden to accompany you."

After seeing the reply message, Su Ming breathed a sigh of relief, then turned and left.

The next morning.

Inside the command room of the Meteorite.

Rhine and other officers were neatly lined up in two rows. Each of them had a very serious expression, revealing a strong murderous aura.

Although all of them present had not been in the army for a long time, they had experienced many battles, big and small, since they joined the Thirteenth Legion in the past few years, which was more than some veterans had experienced in their entire lives. Under the training of blood and fire, they had grown up.

At this time, Irelia was sitting in the command chair, looking at Rhine and others who were arranged.

Su Ming stood quietly beside Irelia.

When Rhine and others saw this scene, they all looked a little unnatural. Irelia was actually sitting in the command chair.

Although this command chair is for the captain and the commander, since the Federation worships the use of force, under normal circumstances this position is occupied by the highest-ranking officer.

Now it's the other way around, with Irelia sitting in that position and Su Ming standing beside her, which is a bit reversed.

However, Rhine quickly suppressed the doubts in his heart and reported to Su Ming with a serious expression.

"The 2280rd Regiment of the 2280th Army of the Federal Government should have people, and the actual number is ."

After listening to this, Su Ming turned around and reported to Irelia.

"Everyone is here."

Rhine and the others were even more surprised when they saw Su Ming reporting to Irelia.

"Very good. This voyage is full of dangers, but as long as we unite as one, we will surely return victoriously. Now I declare that we are setting sail!"

Irelia gave the order directly.

"Yes!"

Rhine and others responded in unison, executing the order unconditionally.
-
Tidal star sea.

God Fortress·Light Conference Hall.

A round conference table made of pure white jade was located in the center of the conference room. Around the round conference table were twelve white mechanical chairs with intricate patterns carved on them.

Archbishop Dehill and Deputy Grand Master of the Knights Templar Limi sat on chairs on both sides of the main seat.

At this time, a man wearing white colonial armor, with black side bangs, gold gem earrings on his ears, a bad look and arrogant behavior walked in and sat directly next to Limi. This man was none other than the Sixth Seat of the Knights Templar, Bayrut.

Then an old man wearing a white robe, with a thin body, wrinkled face and deep eyes, walked in with a group of generals. This old man was Archbishop McKenwa, who was ranked fourth.

They sat down around the oval conference table. At this time, the projection device on an empty mechanical chair was turned on, and the long-distance projection of Admiral Solenk appeared.

At this time, footsteps were heard and everyone turned their heads to look over.

An old man wearing a gorgeous and solemn white robe, his face as pale as paper, without any blood, his deep eyes flashing with a cold light, holding a scepter inlaid with white gems in his hand, walked in with several subordinates.

"Deputy Hierarch Edrig!"

Archbishop Dehill and others greeted him respectfully.

The old man in front of him was the deputy leader of the Kingdom of Apocalypse, whose status was second only to that of the Divine Emperor Vanluo.

Deputy Hierarch Edrig walked to the main seat and sat down, raising his hand to signal everyone to take a seat.

Desir and the others all sat down upon seeing this.

Edrig glanced at everyone present and spoke majestically.

"Lord Emperor of God attaches great importance to the Tidal Star Sea. Our Apocalypse Kingdom is in urgent need of taking over the Tidal Star Sea and fighting a beautiful war to appease the devout hearts of the believers, so he specially sent me here to take charge."

"understand!"

Everyone responded seriously.

Edrig nodded slightly in satisfaction, then turned to look at Byruth and spoke in praise.

"Byruth, you did a great job this time. Not only did you destroy the Ninth Legion of the Federation, but you also killed Annabeth, the leader of the Ninth Legion. Pope Vanlo is very happy and has specially rewarded you with a new weapon."

"Thank you, Lord Divine Emperor."

Bairuto smiled wickedly and replied happily.

When Solenk and others saw this scene, they were all very envious.

At this time, Edrig said to everyone.

"Pope Fanluo said that meritorious service should be rewarded! This time when I came here, the Emperor asked me to bring something very precious."

When Edrig said this, the subordinates behind him took out a freezer and placed it on the table, then opened it in front of everyone.

As the cold air leaked out, three sets of scarlet injections appeared. The red liquid in these three syringes kept wriggling as if they were alive.

"Is this the V-type gene potion?"

Archbishop McKenwa and others asked excitedly.

"Yes, this is the God-given V-type gene potion. Not only can it give the user unlimited power, but it can also rejuvenate and make them immortal! The Divine Emperor Vanluo has said that the person who performs best in this Tidal Star Sea Battle will receive the God-given V-type gene potion!"

Edrig said to everyone.

"Great."

Archbishop McKenwa and others responded excitedly.

“Everyone has a chance, so everyone should do their best.”

"understand!"

"Solenk, how is the Federation's support force intercepting?"

Edrig turned his head to look at Solenk and asked.

"Lord Edrig, rest assured that I have successfully intercepted the Federation's support forces and forced them to retreat to the Dark Moon Defense Line."

Admiral Solenk quickly reported.

"Well done, I'll give you credit!"

Edrig was satisfied with Solenk's answer.

"But Lord Edrig, the Thirteenth Legion is leading the support this time. The Thirteenth Legion is very powerful and I'm afraid they won't swallow this loss."

Solenk said with some concern.

Originally, he looked down on the Federation, but in the end he was almost beheaded by the other side.

"Haha."

At this time, Byruth raised his hands to cover his face and laughed shrilly and crazy.

Solenk's expression darkened and he turned to look at Bayrut.

"Bairut, what are you laughing at?"

"Solenk, you guys are too timid. What the hell is the Thirteenth Legion? The Thirteenth Legion was destroyed long ago in history. Now they are nothing more than a group of guys waving old flags to bluff people. Don't look at how impressive their battle record is. To put it bluntly, they just took advantage of the Dark Star Empire's unpreparedness, drilled a hole from the edge of the defense line, and then ran around like rats. What's so great about that? You are actually afraid, it's ridiculous."

Bairuto sneered mercilessly.

At this time, Limi spoke coldly.

"Don't be too arrogant, Bairuut. The Thirteenth Legion is not as weak as you think. You forgot that Andefa died at the hands of Su Ming of the Thirteenth Legion."

"Andefa! Don't you know how he died? Would he have died if he had support? He was beaten to death by a group of people, okay? And speaking of Su Ming, I want to ask everyone here, why did he know our spearmanship? Who taught him? Check your hearts and think about it carefully."

Byruto sneered without hesitation.

"you"

Solenk and others looked very unhappy and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"That's enough, stop arguing!"

Edrig said in a cold voice.

When everyone saw Lord Edrig speak, they all quieted down.

“Although the Thirteenth Legion was formed later, it cannot be underestimated, especially Su Ming. If he really joins the battle, we must be extra careful. Of course, if he really dares to come to Tidal Star Sea, that will be his death!”

Edrig slammed his hand on the conference table and spoke with murderous intent.

The death of Andefa dealt a heavy blow to the Kingdom of Apocalypse. Emperor Vanluo was extremely angry and vowed to kill him. But the guy was hiding in the Federation like a turtle, and the dogs of Night Owl had been secretly watching him.

"Yes."

Solenk and others responded one after another.

"Okay, let's break up the meeting!"

Edrig waved his hand and gave the order.

After hearing this, Archbishop McKenwa and others stood up and left.

Limi also stood up and left the meeting room indifferently.

When she reached the corner of a corridor, Byruth suddenly appeared, blocked Limi's way, pressed the wall with one hand, shook his bangs, and said with an evil smile.

"Limi, are you free tonight? Can you please have dinner with me?"

"I have no interest in the weak."

Limi glanced at him indifferently, then walked around Bairuto and continued walking forward.

Byruto said while walking backwards, facing Limi with an evil smile.

"Haha, I'm not weak. You know, I just killed Annabeth. And you don't think the ranking of the Knights Templar represents our strength, do you? Those guys in Anderfa are ranked so high only because of the family behind them. If we only talk about strength, I won't necessarily lose to them, and I am a completely different person now."

"Really? Wait until you defeat Su Ming before you say such things."

Limi replied coldly.

"Tsk tsk~ You really know how to pick a shield."

"What? Are you scared?"

"I'm not that scared, but Su Ming's spear skills are indeed quite impressive. If I want to kill him, I'll probably have to use some tricks."

Bairuto smiled and said.

"I only look at the results."

Limi glanced at him coldly and walked away directly past Bairuto.

Byruto stopped and looked at Limi's twisting figure as she walked away. He couldn't help but lick his lower lips with his tongue, muttering to himself with a wicked smile.

"As expected of the woman I've chosen, she really has personality. The harder it is to get her, the more I like her!"
-
Late Night·Dead Light.

Su Ming walked out of the room and ran into Onit head-on.

I saw Onit holding a tray with a cup of jasmine tea and some osmanthus cakes on it.

"Boss, this is the midnight snack I prepared for you."

O'Neal said flatteringly.

"Okay, I'm just a little hungry, just give it to me."

Su Ming reached out and took it.

"Ah, Boss, do you want me to bring it in for you?"

Ornette asked in surprise.

"No, just go!"

Su Ming spoke directly to Onit.

"well."

Ornette scratched his head and left.

After Su Ming saw Onnite walk away, he walked to the door of the next room with the midnight snack and knocked on the door.

dong dong~
There was no response for a long time.

Su Ming was also a little surprised that Irelia was not in the room so late.

He thought about it for a moment, then walked towards the command room with the midnight snack.

At this time, Onite popped his head out from behind. He looked at Su Ming's leaving back with a puzzled look on his face. It was really strange.

It was the first time he saw Commander Su Ming being so attentive to a girl.

Ornette then followed quietly.

As a result, Rhine happened to walk out of the room. When he saw Onnite following Su Ming stealthily, he immediately chased after him and called out to Onnite.

"Onit, what are you doing? Are you so bold that you dare to secretly follow the boss?"

"Shh, I'm not following Commander Su Ming."

"Bullshit, I saw it clearly."

"Oh, I just brought the boss a midnight snack, but didn't you notice that the boss is a little abnormal?"

"You're not normal!"

"No, didn't you notice that the boss was very attentive to Irelia? This is something I have never seen before."

Onit explained helplessly.

"If you put it that way, I also feel something is not right. Could it be that they are in love?"

Rhine asked with a very interesting expression.

"It's possible. Irelia is indeed very beautiful and has a good temperament."

Ornette said with his eyes brightening.

"Let's go and take a look."

Rhine quickly pulled Onnit and followed secretly.

In the central control room.

Su Ming walked in with some midnight snacks and saw Irelia sitting in the command chair, looking through some documents intently.

He then took the midnight snack, walked over to Irelia and said with a smile.

"Senior Irelia, it's so late and you're still awake. Let's have some midnight snack."

"Okay, thank you."

Irelia immediately stopped, turned her head and looked at Su Ming who was holding the midnight snack and replied.

Su Ming pressed a button next to the command chair, and a small folding metal table rose from the ground in front of Irelia. He gently placed the midnight snack on it.

Irelia picked up the jasmine tea and took a sip, then said with satisfaction.

"It's pretty good." "As long as you like it. By the way, Senior Irelia, what are you watching so late at night?"

"I'm looking at the federal government's public financial statements, and the deficit is huge."

"Senior, how much debt does the Federation owe?"

Su Ming asked curiously after hearing what Irelia said.

"I'm not sure either. According to some bloggers' speculation, the deficit is estimated to be 3000 billion federal coins, while the federation's annual GDP is only 1000 billion federal coins."

Irelia shook her head and said.

"300%. So high?"

Su Ming was also shocked when he heard it.

Under normal circumstances, a debt ratio of more than 150% would put the country on the verge of financial collapse. The fact that the federal government has not collapsed with a debt ratio of 300% is truly a miracle!

You should know that GDP is just a number and does not represent net income.

"Ah."

Irelia replied calmly.

"I don't quite understand why the federation has such a huge deficit. Is this accumulated over history?"

"Some of these are historical accumulations, but the accumulation is not large. When the Speaker of the Parliament was in office, there were deficits, but they were small. Many of these deficits were incurred in the past hundred years, especially in the past few years, and have grown particularly fast."

"It's normal, actually. We've fought so many wars in recent years, and each war consumes a huge amount of money."

Su Ming nodded and replied.

"Although these funds are not squandered, the deficit does not disappear and still needs to be repaid."

Irelia replied calmly.

Su Ming heard this and asked thoughtfully.

"Senior Irelia, if you were the president of the council, how would you deal with this deficit?"

When Irelia heard Su Ming's words, her eyes moved slightly and she glanced at Su Ming.

"I said if."

Su Ming emphasized with a smile.

"If it were me, I would streamline the business, investigate corruption, and even think of ways to pay off the debt."

Irelia looked at Su Ming and replied.

"Your method of paying off debts, isn't it a physical method?"

Su Ming asked jokingly.

"Do you think it's possible? Do you know who the creditor is?"

"Who?"

"See for yourself."

Irelia tapped the bracelet and a simple scale diagram was projected.

Su Ming took a look and showed a surprised expression.

Some of the federation's creditors are the giants in St. Joe, especially Morris Interstellar Bank, which accounts for a large portion. The rest are domestic capital giants and the people who buy government bonds. Among them, the share of the people is quite large, reaching 40% of the total, almost half.

"I didn't expect the people of the Federation to be so rich that they actually bought so many national debts. This debt is really difficult to resolve. I guess we have to pay it back in full, otherwise something serious will happen."

Su Ming said to Irelia with a wry smile.

"Su Ming, if it were you who had to deal with these debts, what would you do?"

Irelia stared at Su Ming and asked in a calm tone.

Su Ming was also stunned. He didn't expect that Irelia would throw the question back to him. Then he began to think about it seriously.

Irelia was not in a hurry either, and looked at Su Ming quietly.

A few minutes later, Su Ming said to Irelia.

"To be honest, if the Federation is given enough time to mine safely, such a large deficit can be solved, but it is obvious that the enemy will not give the Federation time to develop slowly."

"That's right, what next?"

"So if I were to deal with these deficits, I would do everything possible to eliminate the enemy and devour them, fighting to support the war! Of course, this method is not feasible because our enemy is not just one. If it's one-on-one, I can definitely do this!"

Su Ming replied calmly.

"You're right."

Irelia replied in agreement.

"Of course I think that although the situation of the Federation is very bad, the Dark Star Empire and the Kingdom of Apocalypse are not necessarily much better. Their deficits are definitely bottomless pits. Now it's just a matter of seeing who collapses first."

Su Ming thought for a moment and added.

"Junior brother Su Ming is really well-read! You didn't study economics and command, which is a bit of a waste of your talent."

After hearing this, Irelia looked at Su Ming a few more times with her purple eyes and said to Su Ming.

"No, it's just a casual chat, nothing to be mentioned in public."

Su Ming laughed and said.

While Su Ming and Irelia were having a pleasant conversation, Rhine and Onit stood in the corner of the command room, pretending to chat, glancing at Su Ming and Irelia from time to time.

"See how attentive Commander Su Ming is?"

Ornette said in a low voice.

"It looks like they are really getting along."

Rhine replied with great emotion.

"Hehe, looks like I'll have to serve one more person in the future."

Onit's eyes kept rolling, and he was silently thinking about how to please Irelia.

Rhine looked at Onite with contempt. This guy is simply a bootlicker among bootlickers.

At this time, a prompt pops up on the operation screen.

Li Menghan took a look at the prompt and reported immediately.

"Captain Irelia, we are about to end our superluminal flight and arrive at the Pluto Defense Line. Where should we stop?"

"Pluto"

Irelia replied simply.

"Yes!"

Li Menghan responded immediately.

……
-
Dark Moon Defense Line.

A gray planet is floating in the vast starry sky.

The entire grey planet looked like it had been hit, with a large piece missing. Its overall shape was like a moon, with a huge base city standing in the center of the crescent. On the tip of the crescent, there was a giant gyroscope-shaped spaceport floating, where the headquarters of the Pluto Moon Defense Line was located.

In addition, the entire gray planet surface is decorated with various special lights, which looks very beautiful from a distance. In the space outside the planet, there are suspended honeycomb-shaped space stations, prismatic metal defense fortresses, patrol ships and mecha groups.

At this time, ships of different types, like a swarm of bees, drove into the giant honeycomb-shaped space station and got stuck inside.

Pluto Star Headquarters.

In the long corridor, Lieutenant General Greyly, Timmy, Marina, Major General Dierken and others walked towards the conference room.

Soon they arrived at the door of the conference room.

Timmy and Marina walked forward at the same time and pushed open the door to the conference room.

Lieutenant General Grey walked straight into the conference room. The entire conference room was arranged in a T shape, with rows of seats on both sides and a parliamentary podium in the front.

At this time, many officers had already taken their seats, but everyone looked very gloomy, and it could be seen that morale was very low.

At this time, many officers at the scene saw Lieutenant General Grey come in, and they all stood up and greeted him respectfully.

"General."

"sit!"

Lieutenant General Grey looked at the many officers, raised his hand and motioned them to sit down, and walked straight to the parliamentary podium in front.

When they walked to the parliament podium, they found that Firion had not arrived yet, so they sat down in the first row of meeting seats.

At this time, Marina and others couldn't help but ask Lieutenant General Grey.

"Sir, we have been resting here for many days. We cannot continue to waste time like this."

"Oh, I know."

Lieutenant General Greyli was also very troubled. She knew that she couldn't stay here any longer. The Tidal Star Sea was getting very anxious. They would send inquiries every once in a while, but the problem was that they couldn't get out!

At this time, footsteps were heard, and Admiral Firion and Jon walked in. Lieutenant General Greyly stood up impatiently and went up to ask.

"General Firion, now that you are here, do you have any good ideas?"

When Filion heard Lieutenant General Gray's question, his expression froze. What good solution could he have? What else could he say? He couldn't complain about the combat effectiveness of the Rain City troops. It was really lame, right?

If the fighting power of these people could keep up with their pace, when they were ambushed, they would have killed the enemy's vanguard before the enemy's support arrived.

"General Greyly, this matter cannot be rushed. Let's discuss it carefully. You take a seat first."

Filion coughed and said tactfully.

"it is good."

When Lieutenant General Grey and the others heard this, they all showed disappointment on their faces. They had been trying for a long time but still could not find a solution.

They can only take seats.

Seeing that Grayleigh and the others were even more frustrated, Filion felt a severe headache.

However, he still walked to the conference stage and encouraged everyone.

"Everyone, listen to me. Although we suffered a setback this time, the enemy cannot stop us. We will definitely find a way to defeat them."

Grayli and the others listened to Filion's encouraging words without any emotion and were not moved at all.

Jon, who was watching this scene, was also speechless.

At this moment, Firion's bracelet vibrated and a message popped up.

"Dear Admiral Firion, the Falling Light is about to dock at Spaceport No. 1."

When Filion saw the message, he was immediately delighted. Su Ming had finally arrived. He immediately stopped his speech and spoke to everyone.

"Today's meeting is temporarily cancelled. I'm going to pick someone up."

Grayli and others were also startled.

Firion and Jon left in a hurry without explaining to Greyleigh and the others.

Seeing this, Graylee and the others stood up and followed. Although they didn't know who Filion was going to pick up, they felt a glimmer of hope as it looked like reinforcements.

General Command Observation Deck.

An old woman wearing a military uniform, with her silver-white hair tied up in a bun, the skin on her face as dry as tree bark, deep eyes and a calm expression, was standing on the observation deck.

This old woman was none other than the commander of the Pluto Star Defense Line, Freya.

Standing next to her was a tall woman with fair skin, pretty features, gentle temperament, and wearing a major general's uniform.

The woman was Freya's adjutant, Major General Gwen.

"Ugh!"

Freya looked at the many support soldiers in the headquarters. They all looked listless. She sighed slightly. Their morale was really too bad.

At this time Gwen hesitated and spoke.

"Commander Freya, it's not a good idea for them to be stuck here all the time. If this goes on for too long, something bad will happen in the Tidal Sea."

"I know, but there's nothing I can do about it."

"How about we send out troops to help them break through?"

"No, the soldiers on the defense line must not be moved. Have you forgotten how the Dark Star Empire's defense line was breached by the Thirteenth Legion? It was by moving the soldiers on the defense line."

Freya shook her head and replied.

Gwen was also helpless when she heard this and didn't say anything more.

At this time, Freya was a little surprised to see Firion and others rushing to the starry sky platform.

"Where are they going?"

"It seems like he's going to the Starry Sky Platform. He should be picking someone up."

Gwen said after taking a look.

"Did the parliament send reinforcements?"

Freya was also a little surprised.

At this time, Filion and his group all gathered on the starry sky platform. The top of the entire starry sky platform was made of a transparent glass curtain wall, through which they could clearly see the situation in the outside space.

In the vast starry sky, accompanied by a ripple, the level 5 battleship Falling Light emerged.

"coming!"

Jon saw the Meteorite and shouted excitedly.

Filion also showed a look of joy on his face.

Marina and the others were also surprised to see the appearance of the Fallen Light, and they talked about it.

"There really is a ship coming. Who is the big shot coming this time?"

"I don't know, but there is hope."

The moment Timmy saw the Fallen Light, his body trembled slightly and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

Upon seeing this, Lieutenant General Greyli spoke seriously to Marina and the others.

"Quickly get in line!"

"Yes!"

Marina and others quickly lined up in two rows, ready to welcome them.

On the observation deck.

Commander Freya was a little surprised when she saw the Falling Light, and then she asked.

"Gwen, who is coming to support us this time?"

"This ship, the Falling Light, belongs to Admiral Su Ming, a candidate for the rank of admiral. If nothing unexpected happens, Admiral Su Ming should be here to provide support."

"I didn't expect the parliament to send him here. It seems that the parliament is really anxious this time."

Freya nodded and replied.

Inside the command room of the Meteorite.

The optical imaging device displayed the virtual image of the Pluto planet in front of Irelia and others.

"This planet is quite prosperous. There are still so many ships coming and going during this period."

Su Ming said with a little surprise.

"That's normal. There's an old saying that goes, the bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish!"

Irelia said calmly.

"Makes sense."

Su Ming replied in agreement.

Soon, the Lost Light arrived at the headquarters spaceport and slowly docked.

Su Ming then spoke to Rhine and Ankajia.

"Let's go meet an old friend!"

"it is good!"

Rhine and Ankaja responded seriously.

Su Ming took the two of them and left.

Starry sky platform.

Filion and others looked at the closed entrance.

Hey~
Accompanied by a clear prompt sound.

The tightly closed metal door at the entrance of the passage opened, and Su Ming, wearing a military uniform, came out with Rhine and Ankajia, with a serious expression.

When Lieutenant General Grey and others saw Admiral Su Ming, they all showed surprise on their faces. They did not expect that it was Su Ming who came to support them.

"Su Ming, you are finally here!"

When Firion and Jon saw Su Ming, they were overjoyed and went up to him and gave him a warm hug.

"You guys are exaggerating. You're so impatient."

Su Ming greeted them with a smile.

"Oh, you don't know the situation. We led a team to support Tidal Star Sea, but we were blocked and sent back not long after we left. It's not right to go out now, and it's not right not to go out either. If we can't get support and supplies from Tidal Star Sea, we'll definitely be doomed if we go back!"

Firion said with a headache.

"In that case, the situation is indeed very serious."

Su Ming nodded in response.

"It's not just these reasons. We really brought shame to the Thirteenth Legion this time. Therefore, we didn't dare to report to the legion commander, so we thought of asking you to come and help us break through the blockade as soon as possible."

Jon then explained another reason.

When Su Ming heard Jon's words, he was stunned and a very interesting expression appeared on his face.

"Su Ming, what's wrong? Is there any problem?"

Seeing Su Ming standing there in a daze, Firion asked in confusion.

"No, it's no problem."

Su Ming came back to his senses and immediately started to smile foolishly and replied.

Since everyone was pretending not to know him, he might as well pretend not to know him too, seeing through the whole thing without saying anything.
