Starry Sky Railway: No one understands the Amber King better than me.

A towering, mountain-like shadow slowly emerged from the clouds, almost obscuring the light of day.

"What's this?"

Helian Hai murmured incoherently, his pupils constricting.

......

Chapter 94 Osius

A massive shadow was looming over Krim V.

Even though the coalition government controlled by Helian Hai had previously implemented news censorship, this sun-obscuring scene could no longer be concealed.

Within a single day, Sky City crashed and a colossal ship descended.

Many people who were initially kept in the dark were momentarily at a loss, and anxiety and confusion about the future quietly began to grow.

"We have made contact with the escort fleet. This is the latest briefing."

After receiving the information from the front, Xiang Yu immediately forwarded it to Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan opened the panel and quickly browsed through it.

That's right, the ship that has arrived at Krim V at this moment is the Sky-Piercing-class flagship where Lin Yuan is located.

This warship, which had just experienced a bloody battle, was still surrounded by the smell of gunpowder and the aura of a victor.

As its spoils of war, a crimson-painted warship is quietly following outside of near-Earth orbit.

The once proud ship of the Blazing Fire Brigade is now covered in scorch marks and damage. Yet, given its wretched state, the remaining members of the Annihilation Gang dare not utter a word.

After completely eliminating the Flame Sacrifice, the company's Marines quickly took control of the Skyfire.

The main force of the Fire Brigade has been largely wiped out in the hangar section, and the rest have either lost their will to fight or fled in panic in the escape pods.

The Marines encountered only sporadic resistance at a few key points, but quickly eliminated them thanks to their superior equipment.

With this, the Firestorm Brigade was completely dismantled. Its high-ranking officers and leaders were all captured according to intelligence, and the flagship fell into Lin Yuan's control.

But what Lin Yuan was most concerned about was the question of the mastermind behind it all.

After leaving the hangar, he directly took control of the ship's database by force.

With the help of the company's equipment, Xiang Yu quickly began to sift out the useful intelligence.

And now, all the information he wanted to know has surfaced.

.......

"So, this group of interstellar bandits premeditated an attack on Krim V, and even prepared some kind of weapon of mass destruction?"

Lin Yuan tapped his hands on the table, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes.

"Based on the current intelligence, that's indeed the case... Captain, given the unexpected situation, I think Yingduo and the others have done their best to get to this point."

Xiang Yu carefully explained to his colleague. He didn't know how Lin Yuan would react to such serious consequences.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but recall the expression on Lin Yuan's face when he identified the mastermind in the file.

It was a chilling, almost icy coldness that sent shivers down your spine.

"You..." Lin Yuan chuckled upon hearing this.

"Am I the kind of person who would push the blame onto my subordinates when something goes wrong? Don't worry, if the sky falls, I, being the one in charge, will hold it up. Just go ahead and do your job, I will always be your strongest support."

Upon hearing this, Xiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief, his respect deepening.

"Captain, from today onwards, you are my second idol!"

"And who's first?"

"Ahem...that's a role model in the hacking industry, my childhood dream, let's not talk about it." Xiang Yu said with a forced smile.

"Alright, judging from the current situation, it seems that the mutual aid society is also behind it."

"Judging from this situation, it should be so."

Xiang Yu, who had also reviewed the intelligence, nodded.

"In that case, Krim V..."

Lin Yuan looked at the planets outside the window, feeling somewhat sentimental.

"I've created this link, but am I ultimately the one who has to clean up the mess?"

He turned his gaze back to Xiang Yu and Captain Ford, who was not far away.

"We don't have much time. Resolve this issue as soon as possible, and then... I'm going to give those friends who think they're hiding behind the scenes a big surprise. Order the Third Fleet to enter orbit around Krem V. Implement temporary airspace control over that area immediately."

"Won't this provoke hostility from the local population?" Ford asked.

"No." Lin Yuan shook his head.

"This world has not yet joined the Pan-Galactic Trade System. The order established by the corporation is essentially designed to constrain us and protect them. But at this moment, here, only the laws governing galactic travel remain in effect..."

His gaze was calm yet sharp.

"That is, the barrel of a gun determines everything."

"Use global communication to tell them, I'm here, the company is here, and order... has arrived as well."

.........

The atmosphere in the conference hall of Tiandu Stadium was silent and oppressive.

Helian Hai's expression changed several times. After receiving an urgent communication, he looked at everyone in the company with a grim expression:

"So... that huge thing outside is also one of your company's warships?"

“That’s right,” Yingduo replied frankly.

Compared to the tense atmosphere just now, everyone has now returned to their respective positions.

"This is the flagship of the third action fleet of our company's market development department, and it is also a regular warship that every fleet in the company has. There are countless such warships."

Sakura spoke clearly.

"We have already stated that this trip is for both bandit suppression and rescue operations. Our company has good intentions, but your side..."

"Goodwill?" Helian Hai's expression suddenly turned ugly, and his voice slowly rose.

"Goodwill means letting a fleet sail into our planet without warning and then take over our airspace?!"

"The threat and detention of company envoys is an inevitable consequence."

Sakura met his gaze without fear.

“Mr. Helian Hai, the most urgent task now is to restore our freedom and safety and that of the rescue team as soon as possible, and get everything back on track. We understand your concerns about the future of the planet, but please do not put the entire civilization on the table without proper consideration.”

"No...that's absolutely not going to do."

Under everyone's gaze, Helian Hai's expression was initially somewhat dazed, but then gradually became firm again.

"For the sake of civilization's autonomy, I must not lose my last bargaining chip."

"Ugh....."

After a brief silence, a sigh came from the side, and the plain-looking man spoke softly.

"Helian Hai, you've placed yourself in the position of a savior, but where do you place me, the executor?"

The man's gaze suddenly sharpened, and his calm tone belied his ruthless nature.

“I have always hated others making decisions for me, and I still do. I am who I am, only I can be my own master, and only I can use myself as a bargaining chip at the negotiating table.”

Ignoring Helian Hai's sudden change in expression, he slowly stood up.

"But... although I hate this behavior now, I still owe you a favor. If you hadn't secretly provided me with information back then, I would have had a hard time getting my revenge, and she... wouldn't have been able to have her last happy moments."

I acknowledge this relationship. I will keep my promise to you. But after this, we are even.

After the man finished speaking, he turned to the rest of the company.

"And between me and this star, there is only one last connection left."

He looked up, his gaze calm.

"Gentlemen, as he said, your presence is our last bargaining chip, and what I want to do now is to put aside everyone else on that planet and talk to you one more time."

What are you trying to say?

"Those who follow the path of destiny, surely there are some within the company as well?"

"That's right, if you want, you'll be able to see our captain soon."

"Oh, that's perfect."

A carefree smile spread across the man's lips.

"Then please deliver a challenge for me. I will offer you all as hostages in exchange for this opportunity to fight. If I have offended you, I apologize in advance. And I will also stake myself on this."

His voice gradually became more cheerful, each word as firm as a nail.

"Since we have transcended the mundane, shouldn't we have rules that transcend the mundane? Let the competition between two destined travelers determine the future of the entire planet. I think this is a wonderful thing even in the universe."

If I win, you only need to grant this world some leniency in the agreement. If I lose, I am at your mercy; my life and my freedom are both at your disposal.

He paused, a silver glint flashing in his eyes.

"If you agree, please use my name. Not some meaningless title like God of War. My name is Osius, a name given to me by my mother."

Chapter 95 Concept

Kexia Canyon

This place is usually deserted. More than 20 years ago, this area was still a plain.

But a battle that will attract worldwide attention breaks out here, where the God of War Osius faces off against the combined forces of seven corporations.

That battle cleaved the plains into a canyon.

Now, Osius has returned to this place, but his opponent is different.
