Poverty makes me capable of anything.

"Your Excellency, are you worried that something might happen to them?"

"Don't ask, just follow along. Contact me immediately if anything happens." Taina waved his hand.

"Yes."

About ten minutes later, Taina received the report.

"Your Excellency, something terrible has happened! The reporters from the Eastern Times are in danger! They've been kidnapped, and the perpetrators are the escort troops from Wayne Ore Transport Company!"

Wayne Ore Transport Company?

"emmm..."

They appear to be trading partners with the transdimensional world.

Then there's no problem!

"Your Excellency, should we rescue them immediately?"

Taina glanced sideways: "Save them? The Eastern Times reporter wasn't in any danger, was he? Alright, let them all come back. There's too much going on lately, don't waste public resources. Speaking of this, sigh, I have to do some self-reflection..."

"..."

This……

Fine.

By obeying orders, the man immediately understood the governor's meaning.

"I just went out to run some errands. The reporters from the Eastern Times, didn't they already leave the Governor's Mansion? How would I know where they went?"

It's none of my business.

……

"Catch a few reporters from the Eastern Times? Whatever, let Wayne Enterprises handle it. They're just a few flies. We'll take care of the whole swarm."

Anran casually dismissed the person who came to report the news.

At this moment, she, Heloise, and An Qianqian all took the [Explosive Proliferation] drug.

Heloise's new body was created by Fitch over several years through blood sacrifice, and it was already highly malleable. After taking the drug, Heloise directly increased from level 91 to level 126.

An Qianqian's improvement wasn't as dramatic; she only reached level 103 before stopping.

However, considering that she recently leveled up to level 104 by eating, An Ran felt very confident.

Eat more! There aren't enough whales on Dolphin Star to go around. It's time to turn our attention to the cosmic behemoths roaming the universe.

If it were in the borderlands, the Zerg Queen could also be included in An Qianqian's menu.

An Ran's own upgrade effect was also quite obvious. With the 20 billion experience points invested, the Swift Sword Saint class, which had been stagnant for a long time, was upgraded to level 109 in one go, and a lot of attributes were added.

六围：力量705（装备+100）、敏捷745（装备+70）、耐力804、智力2317、精神921（精神壁垒+231）、魅力11

This is an excellent BOSS panel.

The two health bars, totaling nearly 600,000 health points, greatly enhance Anran's survivability as a mechanic.

Once the advanced BOSS template is unlocked, the HP is expected to double.

"The second batch of 50,000 reinforcements from other places can set off."

Anran issued the order.

A significant portion of the players involved in this operation are from the Lingyun Pavilion and Galaxy Railway guilds. They will join the Warhammer and Dream Ship guilds in ten days to make a huge contribution to the Time-Space Rift.

Meanwhile, the real world is also nearing the end of the year.

The star ratings of all guilds will be reassessed. The guilds whose main forces are all in the Time-Space Rift are going all out and are determined to put in their best effort in the Kadomo Battle.

We must seize this opportunity! If we miss it, we'll have to wait another year! Everyone, stay alert! If the guild successfully upgrades its star rating, everyone will receive corresponding rewards based on their contribution!

Warhammer shouted in the guild channel.

This immediately sparked a flood of positive responses.

Don't worry, President.

This time, we are determined to succeed!

"These strangers seem to be in good spirits."

"After all, they were hired at a high price from above, so they can't be too bad."

"Mercenaries, even if they're outsiders, hah..."

A soldier wearing a yellow hat sneered. Just as he was about to turn around, a large, cold hand landed on his shoulder.

But what I saw next was Warhammer's somewhat "honest" smile: "Brother, I don't really like to show off and slap people in the face right away, but what you said still makes me quite unhappy. I believe there are many people who think the same way as you. We'll see who's the real deal on the battlefield."

"Fine, let's see them!" The soldier in the yellow hat said, his face turning red. "The Fourth Expeditionary Force arrived yesterday. They'll launch their attack either tonight or tomorrow. I hope you won't embarrass yourselves then."

"It will show you how powerful mercenaries are."

Warhammer loosened his grip and nonchalantly twisted his fist.

Wearing a full set of dark metallic armor, he looked incredibly striking.

The soldier in the yellow hat walked away angrily.

[If you ask me, we should just beat him up. This level 50 weakling thinks he's so tough.]

We're not here to fight them; we should at least give them some face.

Warhammer patted Vice President Lyranos on the shoulder.

You're the president, so you make the decisions.

The minor dispute did not affect the players' mood.

They arrived on the surface of the planet Yanara on the morning of November 30.

The planet Yanara has more than a dozen large military factories, making it a highly contested area.

The geographical location of the planet Yanara is also quite delicate.

This place is located on the edge of the Kadomo region, not too far from that inaccessible cosmic graveyard.

Red giants, cosmic clouds, and anomalous gravitational fields...

The Fourth Expeditionary Force took great risks to cross that "path," losing some ships in the process, but their gains were also enormous.

A second breach has been created in the Kadomo region. If Yanara can be successfully captured, then the important artificial military base, Fort Fezzan, can be directly confronted.

The night wind was icy cold.

Players who were gathered with ordinary soldiers guarding the first line of defense were crouching on the ground, seemingly resting, but in reality, they were all chatting in the channels and forums.

Why hasn't the enemy attacked yet? I'm itching for battle!

Put down your sword and stop gesturing at my butt.

Okay, okay, stop fooling around.

【…】

[Something unusual has happened!]

Just then, a loud bugle call suddenly sounded in the distance.

An alarm also sounded through the temporarily issued military communicators.

"Enemy spaceships detected. All troops on alert."

Boom!

A bright beam of light streaked across the dark night sky, finally heralding the start of the war.

Chapter 31 The Unprecedentedly Difficult Landing Operation

Suddenly, artillery fire appeared in the sky above Yanara.

Large numbers of anti-aircraft weapons on the ground awoke from their slumber, and the originally gloomy sky was instantly enveloped in colorful lights.

Warhammer crouched in a deep pit, and looking up, he could see more than a dozen anti-aircraft missiles streaking into the sky with fiery red trails.

It left a flight path thousands of meters long behind it.

The anti-aircraft missiles finally exploded on the energy shield of a spaceship, and the billowing clouds quickly covered the spaceship.

Then a dozen more energy beams disappeared into the thick clouds.

However, the Fourth Expeditionary Force's spaceship was not destroyed immediately.

As the clouds dispersed, the spaceship, still clutching its tattered energy shield, opened several exits below.

One landing module after another slid down, and dozens of space fighters quickly flew out of the spacecraft's cabin, roaring towards the ground-based air defense system.

To avoid damaging the military factories, the warships of the Fourth Expeditionary Force did not launch a large-scale sweeping attack.

Therefore, they are at a significant disadvantage when facing ground-based air defense systems.

"Target: Landing module!"

Over the communicator, a loud voice began issuing the attack order.

"Our rear is Suren City, where there are still civilians who haven't had time to evacuate. We absolutely cannot push the battle line there!"

"what?"

The warhammer, which had just been raised on his right arm, paused for a moment.

This is the front line of the war, so why are there still civilians who haven't had time to evacuate?

He had just arrived here that morning and knew nothing about it.

“The situation here is rather complicated,” said an NPC standing beside him. “We came in a hurry, and we didn’t have enough transport ships for the evacuation. Some of the civilians who didn’t leave were unwilling to leave their homeland; some were indignant about the Second Prince and wanted to stay and die with their homes; some had ulterior motives; and some disliked the Fourth Prince and felt that the Fourth Expeditionary Force had come to liberate them, so they were even less willing to leave. The commander in charge of the evacuation simply ignored them and transported most of the people who could be transported out.”

"..."

War has no eyes.

No matter how firm your faith is, it is as fragile as a piece of paper when faced with shelling that can easily destroy a city.

In Warhammer, although dead NPCs are just a string of numbers, the simulation of these "data" is so realistic that it's hard not to feel some emotion.
