A burst of yellow earth erupted from underground, and Xin Jia's massive body emerged from beneath the roots of a large tree.

  Cautiously looking around, Xin Jia raised the large-scale battlefield observation instrument in his hand, and the chaotic scene of the advancing base more than ten kilometers away was instantly transmitted back to the command center.

  The Roman warships hung high in the air, nearly a thousand meters above the ground, and not one of them descended. From time to time, only a few crescent-shaped fighter jets flew over the forward base at high speed, almost scraping the ground as they passed by, their long tails of plasma flames sending large chunks of rare metal ingots rolling wildly across the ground. Apart from these fighter jets, no other Romans appeared. Even the Roman troops that had occupied the forward base returned to their warships, leaving behind only a few observation instruments and nothing else.

  Twenty hours have passed since the Romanes took over this forward base, and finally two small warships were released from the mother ship. The warship landed quickly on the ground, a group of Romanes walked out of the warship, they watched each other pick up dozens of Zakura energy crystal ore from the ground, grabbed more than ten rare metal ingots with several repair robots, and then returned to the warship back to the mother ship.

  Gu Xie dust looked at the scene transmitted back on the light screen, rubbed his face hard and said faintly: "It seems that they think they have defeated us, now busy dividing the spoils."

  Sai Ren sneered: "Aren't you worried that those Romans will discover that most of the warehouses are actually just dirt and only the top layer is energy crystals and metal ingots?"

  With a slight swing of his right index finger, Gu Xiechen said confidently: "Don't worry, they are now arguing over who will occupy the base we abandoned. They don't have time to conduct an on-site survey to see if these warehouses are filled with various rare minerals. Hehehe, once they've settled their dispute, there'll be a good show to watch."

  As Gorthok the Unyielding said, within the Devourer of Star Clouds, the Romulan was embroiled in a heated debate.

  Seated around a circular conference table, Borukin slammed his fist on the surface and bellowed: "The honor of our imperial family demands that we occupy this base!"

  Jacquelin immediately echoed, "That's right, we are the great first imperial family and must occupy this base as well as these three locations nearby!" Jacquelin's fingers tapped heavily on the empty 3D map of the conference table, all three locations were the most beautiful scenery and richest mineral deposits.

  Borbur Port slammed his fist on the table, shouting: "Our second-choice imperial family also has ancient glory! And it was our family's warrior who first rushed into the base below! This base should be taken over by us! Moreover, among these three places, our Holsum family should at least own one!"

  Several young nobles from other families immediately pointed at Polport and shouted: "Polport, you have lost the honor of our Roman people! What qualifications do you have to ask for these powers? This base should be jointly received by us, and everything on this planet should be divided equally among us!"

  The fierce dispute continues, the direct descendants of the nine major imperial families of the Roman Empire are eager to grab the largest share of bread for themselves. The Federal Army of Earth is right behind them, and in a few days, the Federal Army of Earth will arrive at Tianlang Star, where a fierce battle awaits them, they won't have enough time to dig mines. In this base 1,000 meters below, there are vast resources, these priceless resources can increase the strength of an imperial family by at least double! These treasures are right in front of them, no need for them to dig hard!

  Everyone wants to monopolize this fat meat, and no one is willing to let others touch this fat meat, so disputes are inevitable.

  Several Romans walked into the conference room, they stuffed a storage chip into an analysis computer at the edge of the conference table, a light screen fell from the sky, and a large amount of data poured down like a tide.

  "This is the data measured from the mineral samples we just obtained." A Roman exclaimed excitedly: "Zakura crystal ore, metal ore, all of them are top-grade goods!"

  The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly solidified, and then everyone went crazy shouting, they all came up with various reasons to ask for themselves to occupy this forward base.

  Time passed minute by minute, the Roman warship still hung high in the air without a single ship landing on the ground. Their fighter planes flew over the base one after another, but not a single Roman dared to enter the base. Any creature that wanted to sneak into the base to take away a crystal stone or metal ingot would be met with the merciless firepower of 340 first-class warships!

  Two days passed and the Roman fleet remained motionless.

  Kuxie Chen sat in the command center and let out a yawn, he helplessly looked at Sai Zhen. Sai Zhen rolled her eyes at Kuxie Chen and closed them to take a nap.

  Ardiya said to Gu Xiechen without any ridicule: "You indeed have a good grasp of the Romans' psychology! But when will they be willing to enter our trap?"

  Kuxie dust pointed to the sky and said helplessly, "The plan is in human hands, but success is in heaven's hands. Wait! Unless Miss Aridiya wants to go out and duel with the Roman fleet? I will bless you!"

  Aradiya's face suddenly turned gloomy.

  Xin Jia, carrying the battlefield observation instrument, suddenly raised the observation instrument in his hand. The people inside the command center saw three extremely small fleets whizzing by in the high sky at the same time. These three small fleets and the Roman fleet discovered each other simultaneously. The three fleets ignored the Roman warships and turned around to fly towards the Roman warships with impunity.

  Wave after wave of communication signals were transmitted on public channels, and the communication device at Gu Xie Chen's command center also received these communication signals.

  Borukin appeared on the screen and loudly shouted: "What have you come for?"

  The light screen suddenly split into four pieces, and three more people appeared.

  A figure wrapped in a black cloak spoke menacingly: "This is none of your business. You are not allowed to interfere with our actions!"

  A young man wearing a red bishop's robe calmly drew a cross on his chest and said faintly, "As Bobby said, your Roman fleet is not allowed to interfere with our actions. Otherwise, the glory of the Lord will descend upon your heads and thoroughly purify you!"

  Another young man, dressed in a pale blue Taoist robe with a bun on his head, smiled lightly and said: "What Bobbybi the Great Master and Andrei the Archbishop said is absolutely right. We won't interfere with your war with the Federation, and you'd best not interfere with us either. Otherwise, you won't even have a chance to regret it!"

  A few small second-class warships faced 340 Roman first-class warships, yet they issued a naked threat without any scruples.

  Kuzma Chernenko watched with relish, while Polukhin and other Romanovs were so enraged that their faces turned black.

  But for some unknown reason, the Romans remained silent.

  Two small fleets swaggered around the Roman fleet in a circle, then flew off to the east and west respectively. The two small screens on the light screen disappeared, leaving only the young man in Taoist robes and Borukin remaining on the light screen.

  Khvostov pushed aside the young Daoist and asked Polukhin with a smile: "Have you taken down this base?"

  Borukin proudly raised his head: "Yes!" Immediately afterwards, Borukin asked with a hint of tension: "Why are you asking this? According to the agreement between the Pantheon and your side, you cannot intervene in regular wars!"

  Huā furrowed his brow and asked urgently: "Then, have you seen Xī Zǐ of the Sacred Unicorn Mercenary Regiment?"

  Yakking emerged from the light screen, saying proudly: "All Earthlings who dared to resist were killed, all of them, they are gone!"

  Huawei's face turned black with rage as he slammed shut the communication device: "Damn it, I was planning to take revenge on him, and this dead man actually got taken out?"

  "The three words 'dead man's ghost' were heard clearly by Sai Er, whose face turned pale in an instant. Ariya beside him was even more furious, with flames bursting out all over her body."

  Kuxia Dust closed the communicator and took a deep breath, shaking his head: "The underground forces of the Earth Federation have begun to intervene."

  He shook his head and Gu Xiechen said in a low voice: "The Vatican, the Asian Taoist sects, the League of Gods... what are they doing here?"

  Slowly pulling out a bundle of bamboo slips from his sleeve, Gu Xie narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, "Is it because of this?"

  A secret communication code forcibly connected the command center's communicator, and Poppi, Andrei, and that handsome young Taoist appeared on the light screen of the communicator at the same time.

  "Evil Dragon Gu Xie Chen, if you're still alive and received our signal, hurry up and get closer to us!" Bobbi shouted loudly.

  Andrei smiled warmly and said: "Mr. Gu Xiechen, the great master needs your strength, come into the master's arms, we can give you everything you want."

  The young Taoist hadn't spoken yet when Hua suddenly pushed him aside with one hand.

  "Gu Xie Chen, we've met before, so let's consider ourselves acquaintances! Hand over what you're holding onto and tell us what you know. The Asian Dao Alliance will back you up!" After a pause, Mo Hua sighed, "If you're not dead, it'd be best if you contacted us as soon as possible. If you are dead, then that's even better. And if you're willing to join the Jiuyou Dao sect, I can vouch for you!"

  This time, Gu Xie Chen directly pulled out the power cord of the communicator.

  "Trouble has arrived, but I'm not afraid of trouble!"

  He smiled with a hint of mischief, his eyes gleaming as he weighed the bamboo slips in his hand and said lightly, "Sell to the highest bidder! This feeling is really not bad!"
