Chapter 92: Let Gamma World Grow, Legion-Level Space Warriors
The archival documents of the Tau Empire, which are circulated through the Eastern Star Region, are being reported to higher levels.

Unlike the manual wetware used by the Human Empire to process documents, the Tau Empire uses artificial intelligence to process documents, making it extremely efficient. Every top-level document will be uniformly processed by the central artificial intelligence system with an efficiency that exceeds that of quantum bits. After the central data converges its intelligence, it will be reported and submitted.

The ethers from various home worlds in the Supreme Council are closely following the news between various star regions. Among them, Commander Shadow Sun, the commander of the main expedition, played an extremely important role in the middle and late stages of the Second Sky Expansion. In the war of the Second Sky Expansion, the world of the Tau Empire, with Tau as the center, expanded to hundreds of galaxies and worlds around it, and accepted more than a dozen new races.

By the end of the second expansion of the Sky, they had come into contact with a small force of Charadon's Burning Overlord Orcs. Although it was difficult, they eventually won. In the early stages of the war with humans in the Damocles Gulf, they were also very simple at the beginning, but they still won in the end. Facts have proved that their Tau Empire is the chosen race of the universe.

Although all the diplomatic strategies they used against intelligent creatures like humans had failed, the Gulf of Damocles War brought their self-confidence to its peak.

In particular, the successful development of the Horizon Curvature Engine allows them to support the battlefield at a faster speed.

As they review this war.

Documents were presented to the Ethers one after another.

Most of them are events that make us proud.

It proves the greatness of the Tau Empire.

But there were only two pieces of information that forced them to take them seriously.

"Top secret crisis!"

"Etherium'No was captured in the Eastern Sector. He is an enemy, a human."

"Top secret crisis!"

"A massive human fleet was discovered in the Gulf of Damocles."

These two events directly plunged the Tau Empire into an unprecedented desperate situation.

In the Gulf of Damocles, they fought a war with the Human Empire, the scale of which exceeded the scale of the war with the Greenskins, especially the battle near Death Star 7. The scale of the naval battle was so brutal that it frightened them. Their starship shields were developed at that time. If it were not for the sudden outbreak of Horizon Warp Engine technology,

They may not be able to take over the planets that humans have.

Just didn't expect it.

How long has it been since then, and humans are actually preparing to counterattack again?

Do they have so many manpower?
"Commander Shadowsun, what do you think?"

Commander Shadowsun and Commander Farsight are both disciples of Qingxi, the most powerful commander in the Tau Empire. Their meticulous control over the details of war has enabled them to play a huge role in the wars against humans and greenskins.

Commander Shadowsun is a warrior of the Fire Caste, who do not have the same long lifespan as the Ether.

So when there is no war, they will go into hibernation, and will only be awakened when there is a more difficult war.

After seeing the two pieces of news, Commander Yingyang, who had fought against humans before, naturally knew which one was more important.

"The focus remains on the Gulf of Damocles. I still suggest temporarily abandoning the southward expansion of the Gulf of Damocles. The southern star region is human territory for us. Although humans already exist on several worlds under our rule and serve as our auxiliary forces, the Gulf of Damocles is not of much value to us."

"The Eastern Star Region is our core area. I've read the battle report. Ether's capture was a carefully prepared trap. They used a force less than ten times the military strength of the Tau Empire to achieve this level of force. This is definitely a more difficult enemy to deal with. We'd better strangle it in the cradle at the lowest cost."

After Commander Yingyang finished speaking, someone immediately objected.

"Commander Shadowsun, if we ignore the Ether, the Eastern Sector isn't as important to us as the Orku world. Even if the dozen or so worlds in the Eastern Sector are attacked, they're still marginal to the Tau Empire. But don't forget that the Gulf of Damocles is closer to the Tau. Once the Gulf of Damocles is lost, the enemy could break through the world of Te'Orku and march straight into their home planet, the Tau."

"Also, according to the battle report, the enemy in the Eastern Star Region is not strong. In terms of warships and soldiers, the Second Fleet is three times larger than the enemy, and the number of soldiers is more than ten times. The combined size of the Second, Third, and Fourth Fleets is more than ten times that of the enemy. However, the Battle of the Gulf of Damocles is different. We have detected that the enemy fleet is at least twice as large as ours, and they even have battleships more powerful than ours gathering. Their number of soldiers will only be greater than ours, not less. Therefore, our focus needs to be on the Gulf of Damocles."

It’s okay for the Eastern Star Region to suffer some losses temporarily.

After all, how many enemies are there on the battlefield in the Eastern Star Region?

It may not even be one thousandth of the size of the Battle of the Gulf of Damocles, and the scale of the war may be only one ten-thousandth.

Moreover, the report stated that the enemies in the Eastern Star Region knew the value of the Tau Empire's Ether and treated their Ether only as prisoners, without killing them at will. This meant that these humans were much better than the lunatics in the Bay of Damocles and could be negotiated with.

Those Astra Militarum troops and mortal auxiliary troops in the Bay of Damocles are more crazy than each other.

Several of their diplomats were beheaded.

The enemies in the Bay of Damocles refused to negotiate with them at all. Some of them even expressed extreme xenophobia, leaving them no chance to even speak. No matter what alien came, they would be killed before they could even open their mouths.

These crazy guys are just like those greenskins who only know how to fight.

This universe is filled with strange races. Can't there be more races like our Tau Empire? Commander Shadowsun stopped talking.

His opinion remained consistent: the Gulf of Damocles could be temporarily abandoned, and they only needed to defend the home world of Oraku.

Solve the enemies in the eastern star zone first.

However, others believed that the enemies in the Eastern Star Region were not important. It was obviously irrational and irresponsible to elevate the matter to the level of the War of the Gulf of Damocles just because a Supreme Ether was captured.

"First, deal with the human fleet in the Gulf of Damocles. As for the issues in the Eastern Star Region, try to resolve them through diplomatic means."

These Ethers had seen the threat posed by the human forces in the Gulf of Damocles, and without mustering as many fleets, they had nearly destroyed their Tau Empire's main fleet.

If the other side really mobilized so many fleets, and they were not prepared to resist, I am afraid that when they targeted the eastern star region, their own southern star region would be directly destroyed. There are not only these humans in the southern star region, but also the greenskins who have been wiped out by them.

Therefore, the assessment level of the Bay of Damocles is far higher than that of the marginal home world in the eastern star region.

Moreover, the combat power is of the scale of the Eastern Star Region.

How big a mess can it get?
Aether is indeed very important, representing the face of the entire Tau Empire, but the war in the Gulf of Damocles determines the future of their Tau Empire, so they can temporarily put aside their face to safeguard the future of the Tau Empire.

"Continue to focus on the defense of the Bay of Damocles. Commander Shadowsun will still take over the responsibilities of the commander-in-chief of the defense from Commander Farsight. Commander Shadowsun, I hope you will live up to my expectations."

"Supreme One, I will live up to your expectations." Commander Yingyang was firm in his opinion, but since the Ethers had already made their decision, he could only obey the orders given by the Ethers.

I hope it's all just my imagination.

Hopefully, the struggle between the Ethers will not affect the future of the Tau Empire.

Yingyang looked through the battle records again.

The battle logs recorded in the records reported that, just as they had said, the enemy numbers were extremely small.

The other side won the war just by luck.

The Tau Empire temporarily gave up its control over the Eastern Star Region and focused all its energy on the Gulf of Damocles.

For the Tau Empire.

Even if we temporarily ignore the marginal home worlds in the Eastern Star Region, it will not shake the entire Tau Empire. After all, how many fleets and how many people are there in the "pirate" world of Sithlaen?
Their victory was due to luck and some technology they obtained from the Forge World.

If they ignored the Gulf of Damocles and instead turned the fleet to attack a 'pirate' world, it might lead to their home world of Oraku being kicked open, and then being marched straight into and onto Titanium.

Therefore, the Eastern Star Region was temporarily abandoned.

For the Tau Empire, it is an absolutely rational choice.

For the Gamma World, this is a great development opportunity.

This means that the Gamma World will have an opportunity to be undisturbed by no one and to receive continuous support from resources from more than a dozen worlds.

In the previous wars, the Gamma World was always in a state of combat readiness, with almost no rest time. No matter how powerful they were, if they had no opportunity to grow and were constantly being consumed, they would still be unable to expand their advantages and could only be passively led by the enemy.

And now.

They were given the opportunity to grow.

Resources from more than a dozen worlds.

Powerful computing power, providing continuous computing power.

The world whose resources they took away is feeding this new world at a terrifying rate and allowing it to grow rapidly.

The gravity slingshot is constantly lit up.

They acquire world resources that the Tau Empire has temporarily abandoned.

And continue to invest resources in the world of Karamat.

Under the laboratory.

There stood the rising star of the Gamma World, a whole legion of warriors.
