Machine War: Starting from Gundam OO

Chapter 1765: Cosmic City
"Report, we have reached the border line shown in the data. If we go any further, we will enter Galan Hall's sphere of influence."

That's right. According to the data, among the currently known forces, Galanhall has the largest sphere of influence and is also the closest to the Promise Legion, so Galanhall was naturally chosen as the target of armed reconnaissance.

"Have you detected any problems?" Katie asked. Although it was a vast universe, they were about to enter the border, so they naturally had to be cautious.

“…Nothing was found!”

"Hmm..." There was no problem in not finding anything on the border. After all, it was difficult to monitor the borders on the ground in all directions, let alone in the universe. However, no hidden enemy aircraft were found, so it was very likely that the other party was unaware of their existence.

"Tianmu, lead your troops to explore in the direction of coordinate Y25. Tessa, lead your troops to explore in the direction of coordinate N94. Dozru, Macsimon, follow the First Fleet. Keep your distance from each other and don't spread out too much."

"Understood." X5
The [Promith] naturally followed the First Fleet. It was not only a trump card that would be turned over at the critical moment, but also served as the escort of the First Fleet. Among the five fleets that carried out armed reconnaissance missions together, the First Fleet had the longest seniority and the strongest combat effectiveness. Kati naturally became the commander of the armed reconnaissance operation.

The two fleets advanced first, maintaining an inverted triangle formation with the three fleets behind them and advancing steadily without discovering anything along the way.

"It's very strange." They had advanced a long distance, a distance long enough to reach from the Earth to Mars, but not only had they not discovered any planets, they had not even seen any asteroids. There were no observation stations, outposts, warning detection devices... nothing.

"It's really strange. If there's nothing in this area, why would they want to take down Galan Hall?"

It is normal that there is no military force deployed to defend a space with nothing in it, but since it is useless, why should we occupy this space, and...what is the sign of occupying this space?
"Commander, Commander Tianm of the Seventh Fleet called and said they discovered a space city!"

"Cosmic City?" Hearing this, Katie was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Have any video materials been sent back?"

"Please wait... Casting to home screen."

When the image appeared on the main screen, everyone understood why it was called a city instead of a space fortress or a space colony satellite. On the one hand, it was much larger than a space fortress or a space colony satellite. Not only that, the image data showed a huge city floating in the universe, just like the Promise Fortress, but it was even larger than the current Promise Fortress, and several times larger! (Refer to the size of the mountain city) The tall buildings were covered by an unknown cover, and even planes could be seen flying in it.

"No defense force?" Katie searched for a long time but couldn't find where the defense force of this space city was. There were no defensive firepower facilities at the edge of the cover, and there were no patrolling fleets around, as if they were sure that no one would attack the city.

"Tianm, have you seen Galanhor's fleet nearby?" Kati immediately contacted Tianm remotely and asked.

"Nothing was found." Tianm shook his head. In order to maintain secrecy, the Seventh Fleet did not get too close to the space city, but the current distance was enough to detect the surrounding area of ​​the space city. However, the radar detection system did not have any positive or negative feedback. "I plan to lead the fleet to maintain the current distance and circle around the space city to see if there are any hidden fleets around."

"Approved." "Understood."

After hanging up the call with Tianm, Kati immediately contacted Tessa and asked her to bring the fleet to meet up and wait for news from Tianm.

"Still no discovery." Not long after, Tessa's fleet had joined the First Fleet, and Tianm also sent news that no trace of the fleet was found.

"Kati." At this time, Yang Hui connected to the communication and expressed his opinion, "Promis should turn on the optical camouflage system and approach the space city to see if it can sneak in and investigate the situation."

"It's too dangerous and the situation is unclear. We can't let you take risks." As soon as he finished speaking, he was immediately objected by Katie. The current situation was too weird. They didn't find anything, but only found an isolated space city without any defense force. No matter how they looked at it, they suspected that there was a problem.

"What do you think?" Yang Hui did not insist on his own opinion, but asked Katie for her opinion. If the situation was unclear, he had to find out what it was. This was his way, and Katie might have other ways.

"Let Tianm lead the fleet to attack the space city." Kati said firmly, "We'll know if there is a hidden fleet after we strike."

"But doing so will allow the other party to discover our presence, and it will be very difficult to sneak in to conduct reconnaissance." Yang Hui did not refute directly, but raised his own doubts. Kati's approach can indeed find out whether Galanhall's fleet is hidden around, but the situation inside is still unclear.

"At the same time, let Cruze lead the intelligence personnel in a small submarine to start the infiltration and reconnaissance mission. The Seventh Fleet will launch an attack from another direction to attract the enemy's attention and buy time for the infiltration force."

Yang Hui understood that undercover reconnaissance was necessary, but Yang Hui could not be among the personnel, and there were also a large number of A-level aces on the Promise.

Even for A-rank aces, the situation with and without an organism is completely different. If they are surrounded by ordinary troops, they can evacuate safely with their own abilities. But if there are MS troops, fleets or even the deployment of the Temple of Slaughter, they will have no way out without an organism.

"..."

"Just do it, Yang Hui." Because there was no Earth for Cruze to spread the intelligence network, Cruze also followed the Promis. Without the Earth as a stage for him, the intelligence department naturally had nothing to do. Now that he had the opportunity, as the main person in charge of the intelligence department, he naturally had to show the role of the intelligence department, and...

This is his job, his responsibility. This was discussed before he joined Promise Fortress. If this job is snatched away, what is the difference between him and a combat troop that only knows how to fight?
"...Okay, take Al Elf and Kane with you, and report any situation immediately. Put your own safety first. If you find that something is wrong, you are allowed to abandon all gains and evacuate immediately." Yang Hui earnestly instructed Cruze that any gain was not as valuable as their lives, especially Cruze, Al Elf, Kane and other heads of intelligence departments.

"Don't worry." Cruze smiled and said, "If I don't want to, no one can take my life."
