Shadow of Deep Space

Chapter 599 Extra 4
At this moment, Mia pulled Su Ming aside and said to him in an annoyed tone.

"You brat, you didn't even say you were alive, making me heartbroken for so long!"

"Oh dear, I just got back. Let's not talk about that now. I heard that Rhine and the others have come back for further studies."

"Yes, it's in that teaching building!"

Mia pointed to the school building in the distance and said.

"Wait, shouldn't you be teaching them? Why are you teaching the freshmen here?"

Su Ming asked, puzzled.

Mia was so angry upon hearing Su Ming's words that she gritted her teeth and said.

"That's all because of that bastard Flok. He said he was afraid I would lead Rhine and the others astray, and he absolutely refused to let me teach them."

"Haha, don't be angry!"

Su Ming almost burst out laughing when he heard this. Vice Principal Flake really had foresight.

"Forget it, I won't argue with him."

"Ms. Mia, you go and teach the students first. I'll go find Rhine and the others."

"Okay, but you have to buy me a drink later!"

Mia said with a grin.

"No problem, we'll drink until we drop!"

Su Ming replied with a smile.

"Okay, it's settled!"

Mia walked happily toward the waiting newborns.

Su Ming also walked towards the teaching building.

A moment later, Su Ming went to the corridor outside the classroom and looked through the window.

Rhine and the others were sitting neatly in their seats, heads down, writing their test papers.

Vice Principal Sangqi sat on the podium, drinking tea while proctoring the exam.

Su Ming counted them briefly and found that only half of the students in the class remained.

He took a deep breath, walked to the classroom door, raised his hand and knocked on the door, then opened the door and went inside.

Vice Principal Sang Qi frowned, looked at Su Ming who was walking in wearing a mask, and said in a deep voice.

"Can't you see there's an exam going on here? Can't we just disturb them?"

"Excuse me, I need to speak with them."

Su Ming smiled and spoke.

Upon hearing the sound, Rhine and the others looked up at Su Ming, their eyes widening in disbelief.

"who are you?"

"Vice Principal Sangqi asked with a dark expression."

"it's me!"

Su Ming removed his mask and said with a smile
Vice Principal Sanchi's eyes widened immediately.

Rhine and the others immediately erupted in excitement, shouting with great enthusiasm.

"Boss!"

"Don't get excited!"

Su Ming said with a smile.

Rhine and the others tried their best to control their emotions.

At this moment, Vice Principal Sangqi took a deep breath and said excitedly.

"Su Ming, you're not dead! That's great!"

"Thank you for your concern, but I hope you can keep my return a secret for now."

"Of course, no problem, it would be my honor!"

"Thank you."

Su Ming replied politely.

Vice Principal Sanchi then left with the books and teacup.

Su Ming then looked at the extremely excited Rhine and the others, and said with a smile.

"Everyone stop taking the exam and come with me on this mission!"

"Great, we don't have to take the exam!"

Rhine and the others threw their papers into the air and cheered!

"Alright, Rhine, stay here. The rest of you, get ready!"

Su Ming said to everyone with a smile.

"Yes!"

Ankaja and the others left to gather their subordinates and prepare the ships.

At this moment, Su Ming walked up to Rhine and asked.

"Rhine, prepare some flowers, we're going to the cemetery."

"it is good!"

Rhine paused for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

Su Ming returned this time not only to summon Rhine and the others to the Dark Star Empire, but also to pay tribute to all the fallen personnel.

Cemetery - a place of eternal rest.

Su Ming stood in front of rows of tombstones, looking at the familiar names on them, his expression somewhat melancholy.

At this moment, Rhine handed bouquets of flowers to Su Ming.

Su Ming accepted the flowers, placed them in front of the tombstones one by one, bowed to each one, and said softly.

I've come to see you!
"Rest in peace here, and leave the rest to me."

A gentle breeze blew by.

Su Ming stood there quietly.

After a long while, Ankaja walked over from a distance and spoke to Su Ming.

"Boss, the ships and personnel are all ready."

"Let's go!"

Su Ming turned and left with Rhein and the other two.

September 16, 0003 AD.

Dark Star - Conference Room.

Commander Sakari sat in the main seat, while Chief Minister Roglian stood beside him.

Deputy Commander Disfa, Deputy Commander Sosk, Commander Os, and others were all seated below, their faces contorted with rage.

"Damn it, those Holy Army guys are really asking for death, daring to mess with us!"

"Do they think we're made of clay?!" "Commander Sakari, when have we ever suffered such humiliation? If you ask me, wipe them out!"

Many generals present spoke angrily.

"Quiet!"

"I am the Prime Minister of the Legrian Society," said the Prime Minister calmly.

The crowd, which had been in a heated argument, quieted down.

At this moment, Sakari said in a cold voice.

"I don't even care about the Holy Army; I could wipe them out in a minute. But the problem is that the Federation is behind them!"

"Commander Sakari is right, the real trouble is the Federation. Now that Kirami and the Machine Race have been defeated, the Federation is the strongest now."

Prime Minister Roglian agreed.

"The Federation is also suffering now, and it's not much better off."

Commander Os snorted coldly.

"That's true, but even a starved camel is bigger than a horse, not to mention the Federation isn't dead yet."

"Roggrian said calmly."

All the generals immediately fell silent.

At that moment, the conference room door was pushed open, and a communications officer rushed in, panting and shouting.

"Oh no!"

"What's wrong?"

"Sakari asked with a furrowed brow."

"The Federation's ancient-class star destroyer, the Grey Angel, has entered our territory and is heading straight for Dark Star!"

The communications officer quickly reported this.

"What? The Federation isn't coming to attack us, is it?"

"No!"

"What should we do now?"

The expressions of the many generals present changed drastically. Although they had boasted that they were not afraid of the Federation, they had not expected that the other side would actually attack.

At this moment, Sakari raised his hand, slammed his hand on the armrest, stood up, and said with a gloomy face.

"Quiet! Everyone, follow me into battle! We're going to meet the Federation!"

"Yes!"

Everyone responded one after another.

In the dark starry sky.

Inside the central control room of the ancient star destroyer, the Grey Angel.

Su Ming rested his chin on his hand, sat sideways in the command chair, and casually tossed a grape next to him with his right hand.

At that moment, Little Gray flew over at lightning speed, opened its mouth to catch the grape, and happily called out to Su Ming.

"Squeak~"

At that moment, a piercing alarm sounded, followed by red dots appearing on the scanning screen and red notification boxes popping up.

"Warning: Legendary Star Destroyer Void detected!"

"Warning: Legendary Star Destroyer Oath detected!"

Timmy then operated the optical imaging device to display the captured images.

In the starry sky, the Void, the Oath, and other ships sailed over and then lined up in a row!

Immediately afterwards, the ships opened their boarding exits.

Commander Sakari, piloting Deathblade, led his massive subordinates out, quickly arranging themselves into formation to prepare for battle.

Timmy smiled at Su Ming and said.

"Lord Su Ming, the Dark Star Empire's forces have entered the battle."

"Interesting, let's go and meet them!"

Su Ming stood up directly from the command chair.

in the starry sky.

The legendary ancient star destroyer, Grey Angel, opened its boarding exits.

Rhine and the others rushed out in their mechs first, and then lined up in neat formation.

At this moment, Sakari opened the communication channel and spoke.

"What are you doing here in the Federation?"

"We've come to persuade you to surrender!"

Rhine answered directly.

"Haha, you think we're weaklings? We're not afraid of you!"

Kirkkis led the charge in shouting.

"That's right!"

Many generals of the Dark Star Empire spoke up.

"Huh, how arrogant!"

Sakkari replied coldly.

At this moment, Rhine and the others maneuvered their mechs to move aside, and then the Grey Angel opened its boarding exit.

Swish!
A terrifying streak of light shot out at incredible speed, and then the Type VII bio-mech, Irelia, appeared in front of Sakari and the others.

When Sakari and the others saw this, their faces showed expressions of extreme horror.

"Everyone, long time no see!"

Su Ming smiled and spoke.

"Su Ming, you're not dead!"

Sakari and the others were completely stunned when they heard Su Ming's voice!

"That's right, I'm here to persuade you to surrender."

Su Ming smiled and said to Sakari and the others.

At this moment, Sakari and the others fell silent, lacking the courage to fight Su Ming, because they were completely outmatched.

At this moment, Su Ming controlled Irenelia to fly forward a short distance.

Sakari and the others were immediately startled and retreated.

Seeing this scene, Su Ming chuckled and said.

"I'm giving you two choices. First, you can accept my suggestion. Second, I'll make you accept my suggestion. Of course, you don't need to rush to answer me. I'll give you three days to go back and think it over carefully."

After hearing Su Ming's words, Sakari and the others silently piloted their mechs back.
