Chapter 1813 - 1444: Bait (Second Update)
"Of course, if you accomplish this task, I will reward you accordingly."
Icaroya promised arrogantly to Feige.
Upon hearing this, Feige hurriedly bowed his head and thanked, "Thank you, Lord Icaroya!!!"
"Also, avoid discussing things that shouldn’t be discussed. Keeping your mouth shut brings benefits without any harm. You’ve been with me for many years, you should understand the saying ’disaster comes from careless words’!"
Icaroya spoke in a casual tone, but Feige felt as if he was in the midst of a harsh winter.
"I understand, I won’t make the mistake again!"
Feige replied nervously.
Icaroya City Lord said no more, she always mentioned things only once, then turned and left directly.
"Farewell, Lord Icaroya."
Feige bowed 90 degrees to Icaroya’s departing figure.
After Icaroya City Lord walked far away, Feige staggered and collapsed sitting on the ground.
"Supervisor, are you alright?"
At this moment, the surrounding subordinates rushed over to support Feige.
"I’m fine, from now on, no one should ask nonsense questions, just work hard!"
After regaining his composure, Feige shouted to all the subordinates.
"Yes, yes....."

Gray Mirror Star Sea·Main Battlefield Center Area A1.
In the Radiant City central command room.
Goli sat on the command chair, the AI Light and Shadow was swiftly reporting.
"Sixth Legion, Twelfth Battalion, successfully broke through the designated area."
"Eighth Legion, Seventh Battalion, defeated the target!"
...
One bit of good news after another kept coming back.
On the enormous battlefield star map, many green dots could be seen advancing in an orderly fashion.
Major General Kunna said to Goli, "Lady Goli, the main battlefield’s first stage strategic target achievement rate has risen to seventy percent."
"What about the casualty rate."
Goli asked calmly.
"Casualty rate is controlled at six percent."
Major General Kunna joyfully reported.
After hearing this, Goli’s tense expression didn’t relax at all. She gazed at the central battlefield star map and said lightly.
"Transmit my order, Radiant City advances three hundred and sixty million kilometers! Move the front forward!"
"Yes!"
Kunna immediately responded.
...
At this moment, at the junction of Gray Mirror Star Sea and Harborcliff Star Sea, in a starry sky filled with meteorites.
Only to see the Dandelion Fortresses and countless defenders entwined with electronic vines scattered within the Meteorite Zone.
Countless Spirit Touchers were deftly roaming within the meteorites.
In the distant starry sky, the Star Destroyer Fierce Teeth carried a large ship group and troops emerging.
In the battle command room, Sith sat quietly on the command chair.
Sico respectfully said to Sith, "Your Highness, your mission target is right ahead."
"What are the enemy’s forces like?"
Sith asked with composure.
"There’s interference, can’t scan it. Considering the terrain of this starry sky, filled with so many meteorites, there must be many hidden enemies, can’t rule out top-level Spirit Touchers. But with our forces, we can definitely take out this strategic point, especially with the massive troops allocated to us by Star Ring City. The six Empires pouring vast forces in, all to assist Your Highness in completing the task, climbing upward!"
Sico analyzed very shrewdly.
"We can’t attack blindly, that would result in severe losses. Even if victorious, it would be meaningless and would only make Icaroya City Lord look down on us."
Sith responded steadily.
"Prince Sith is considering thoroughly, but it’s a bit of a hassle, Eternal Sleep Clan itself excels at coordinated operations, and relying on the Meteorite Zone makes it difficult to fight."
Sico pondered and felt it somewhat tricky.
"Let me think."
Sith responded stably.
At that moment, a stream of communication requests linked, followed by officers in lieutenant and lieutenant uniforms appearing.
They saluted Sith and asked.
"Commander Sith, what should we do next? This situation seems very unfavorable for a direct assault."
"In the Meteorite Zone, it’s tough no matter how we attack, whatever means we use will result in severe losses."
Sith answered very directly.
The numerous NCOs hearing Sith’s words, each with a very solemn expression, gritted their teeth and said.
"Since it’s ineffective anyway, then just go for a direct assault."
"Wait, although any attack seems ineffective, it doesn’t mean there’s no way, just that this method is somewhat dangerous."
Sith suddenly changed his tone, raised his head to speak to everyone.
"Commander Sith, if you have a plan, just say it!"
Everyone was slightly taken aback and asked.
"The method is simple, we dispatch a force of heavy-type ship units to break through from the edge of the Meteorite Zone as bait. Make the enemy believe we’re trying to bypass them and lure them out, then our fast light units follow up from behind and push through suddenly."
"Isn’t this approach a bit risky?"
"Indeed, it’s risky because the bait units will suffer the enemy’s frenzied attack. But if we don’t do this, we’d have to go for a direct assault, resulting in even greater losses. But rest assured, I’m willing to lead the troops as bait."
Sith explained with certainty.
"That is not permissible! Let me, Billier of the Demun Empire, serve as the vanguard bait!"
"I’m willing too."
...
Everyone immediately responded.
"Thank you all, then may I trouble you to list out all the heavy-type ship units, we will definitely win this battle."
Sith said gratefully to everyone.
"Yes!"
Everyone replied together.
After the communication ended, Sith turned to Sico and said.
"Command is up to you."
"Understood, I will not disappoint your expectations."
Sico responded respectfully.
"Hmm!"
Sith patted Sico’s shoulder and then turned around and left.
...
In the starry sky, the Star Destroyer Fierce Teeth led a heavy-type ship group towards the edge of the meteorite defense area.
Though acting as bait, Fierce Teeth and the series of ships were not prepared to just take hits passively; each was ready for battle.
At this time, Sith piloted the V-Type Biological Mecha Black Skeleton, watching the advancing bait ship group with a very serious expression.
The Light Computer Thug curiously asked, "Is this really going to work? What if the enemy doesn’t fall for it?"
"It should work, after all, the enemy couldn’t possibly know that they’re our strategic target. Moreover, if I’m not mistaken, Eternal Sleep Clan must have issued a command for this troop to hold their ground; they can’t possibly let us pass."
"That’s true, but aren’t we always worried about the one exception?"
"There’s no exception; sometimes warfare is all about psychological warfare!"
Sith replied very calmly.
In fact, Sith won the gamble, as troops of the Eternal Sleep Clan hidden in the Meteorite Zone indeed couldn’t hold back. Many troops emerged from the Meteorite Zone, swarming towards Fierce Teeth’s ship group and launching fierce attacks.
