From cannon fodder to sweeping across thousands of stars.

Chapter 646: This is how the public channel is used

Amber's plane was under the charge of a special maintenance squad, mainly because the other super-heavy HCPs were transferred to Murat's command, leaving him to perform "heavy-armored charge" on the front line.

Therefore, Amber's plane is also the only super-heavy HCP in this independent fleet, so the maintenance team that was originally used to serve multiple 'ATLAS' super-heavy HCPs will now only need to serve him.

By the time Amber arrived at the hangar on the ultra-high-speed commuter train inside the 'Eternity', this dedicated maintenance team had also completed the preparation of the 'ATLAS' and installed the 'Giant God Soldier' ​​system according to his previous instructions.

"Boss, everything is ready. You can attack at any time."

"Very good, thank you for your hard work~" Amber nodded, and skillfully changed into a heavy-duty anti-gravity suit while floating forward in the zero-gravity environment, and then swiftly got into the cockpit of 'ATLAS'.

"Subcritical reactor self-test completed! Output power stable!"

"Self-check of the entire machine's circuit system and superconducting battery completed!"

"Weapon unit self-check completed! External assistance inspection passed!"

"Deflection field generator activated, instantaneous test completed!"

"Blue-green laser communication"

"Self-check items 5 to 23 are skipped and the whole link of the machine is connected."

Amber spoke, interrupting the machine's self-check, and tapped on a multi-function screen on the right.

"Lilith, it's time to get to work. Take over the auxiliary control and electronic warfare modules of the aircraft. By the way, is the new electronic warfare virus ready?"

As he asked the question, a mini holographic image of Lilith appeared in the cockpit, even wearing an Atlas combat force uniform.

"Master, the takeover has been completed. But are you sure you want to use the 'NK324' electronic warfare virus? This thing uses a brand new architecture, and it is extremely infectious and destructive. I haven't had time to conduct the final test. If it gets out of control after being released, even I may not be able to suppress this virus."

There was a hint of worry in Lilith's words. As the strongest expert in electronic warfare in Atlas Group, this strong artificial intelligence has been taking time to develop new electronic warfare viruses.

What she just mentioned is something completely different from all the current electronic warfare viruses. It uses a new architecture. It is extremely powerful and destructive, but the problem is that it is not so "obedient".

"It doesn't matter~" Amber shook her head, "Our goal is to paralyze the core program of the satellite cannon array. Then we can dismantle the infected satellite cannon array. We were planning to dismantle this thing anyway."

"Yes, Master, I will try my best to keep it under control."

As the cockpit entrance armor plate was replaced, 'ATLAS' and other HCPs of the first wave of ejection also stood on the ejection tracks at various locations on the 'Everlasting' super flag.

Without any excessive waiting, as the green light representing 'permit to launch' came on, ten squadrons of HCPs were launched at once by the 'Everlasting'. Near this super-flagship were other warships carrying out full-deck launches, with even larger numbers of HCPs.

"Everyone! Gather around me and follow me!"

Amber's firm voice suddenly sounded in the communication channel. This time it was not only in the HCP force's communication channel, nor in the fleet's communication channel, but in the wide-area public channel.

"This is Amber, the 'Boss', 'Devil', 'Terrible Headhunter' as you call him. But no matter what title you give me, no matter how much the rest of you know about me, I want you to know that I am with you at this moment. Many of you have been working hard since the founding of the Atlas Group, but most of you are indeed 'new employees' of the group. You may have asked yourself many times in your heart, why such an important task was given to you to carry out?"

Hearing this, many people in the fleet couldn't help but stop talking or lower their voices, hoping to hear the answer to this question that had been bothering them for a long time.

"Because Atlas needs you, I need you, and that is why Atlas Group was founded with just over a hundred people and has grown to where it is today. This unprecedented global giant was built brick by brick by every person in Atlas Group!
Over the past few days, Atlas has experienced several crises, but these crises have been successfully overcome with the concerted efforts of everyone, and we have defeated many enemies who tried to destroy the group in the process.

In this process full of blood and fire, there have been many fierce battles, and we have sacrificed many brave employees, but each of you has proven your loyalty and bravery time and time again. "

Looking at the warships flashing outside the cockpit, and the HCP with the Atlas logo on the shoulder armor gradually converging next to her, Amber paused and sighed imperceptibly, then said in a sincere tone:

"But today, I must ask you to do more. Today, we must complete all combat objectives, even if we have to fight to the last man, even if I will perish here.
This is an unprecedentedly difficult battle, and some of you may not survive today, but we may not have time to grieve. Let us mourn the fallen later, because the Atlas Group has once again come to a fork in the road of destiny, and the situation we face does not allow us to have any illusions!
Because you are a fleet commanded by me, the supreme leader of the Atlas Group, Amber. We will never show weakness, nor will we surrender to the enemy. Today we will continue the history of the Atlas Group in several battles, and the only result is victory!"

When employees who join the Atlas Group, whether they are civilian or combat troops, receive training, they will learn about the several major wars the group has experienced and understand some of the heroic deeds that took place therein.

In Amber's words, it is to deepen their sense of belonging to the group and make them have a sense of collective honor.

This simple, traditional method has been proven to be effective many times in history. Especially for troops that are more capable of winning battles, the more effective it is, because no one wants to be a drag.

So when Amber said this, many people even automatically flashed back to the scenes they saw during the training.
In the end, Amber did not hesitate to use the "classic sentences" that many famous generals had used before the war to motivate their troops.

"Forty years from now, when you are asked by your loved ones what you did during the Battle of the Pillars of Creation, you can look them in the eye and say, I fought to the bitter end for the Atlas Group.

Everyone in the First Special Mission Fleet, I am proud to serve alongside you today. I wish you good luck. Amber is done speaking."

The public channel fell silent again. Everyone in the Atlas Fleet was immersed in Amber's speech. The members of the Federation Fleet who listened to the entire process on the public channel also had mixed feelings after listening to the 'enemy's' passionate pre-war mobilization.

Even Marshal Trafalgar couldn't help but comment: "Mr. Amber is indeed an excellent and respectable commander for being able to adjust morale in such a situation."

Admiral Carol, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but nodded. Just when he was about to say something, he heard Amber's voice again on the public channel.

"Oh, and one more thing. Team Poseidon, start taking action! Kick the Federation Fleet's ass!"

"?"

As Amber's voice fell on the communication channel, the entire 'Poseidon' fleet immediately removed the optical camouflage and exited the covert operation mode.

Because at this moment, the Federal Logistics Squadron had been brought within attack range by them.

"Attention all ships, enter attack orbit, open all gun ports! Target! Federation Navy Logistics Squadron, cover fire!"

On the light cruiser 'Winged Trooper', the temporary flagship of the 'Poseidon' squadron, the squadron commander's order suddenly rang out throughout the communication channel of the entire Poseidon team!
The next second, dozens of light cruisers and destroyers of this squadron began to attack the logistics supply ships and combat pre-positioned ships 8000 kilometers away.

Trafalgar, who was on the bridge of the Dreadnought, looked in amazement at the warships that had accurately sneaked to the location of the logistics squadron. His mouth twitched slightly for a few times, and he finally uttered a vicious sentence:
“I take back the comment ‘worthy of respect’.”
