Chapter 1296 - 696: Showdown
Chapter 1296: Chapter 696: Showdown
"Now that everyone is here, let’s start the summary meeting!"
The first to speak was still Galaxy Captain Sato Kawa, and shortly after he spoke, the Fusang Dynasty’s Annihilation Starship Captain quickly chimed in.
"This time, our Fusang Imperial Family and the Sato family together, have collectively annihilated one Eighth Rank Eight-Armed Snake Demon and eight Seventh Rank Eight-Armed Snake Demons, capturing five Second Level Snake Demon Holy Cities."
"Our Yama Family killed two Seventh Rank Eight-Armed Snake Demons, capturing one Second Level Snake Demon Holy City."
...
"The Song Family killed five Seventh Rank Eight-Armed Snake Demons, capturing two Second Level Snake Demon Holy Cities."
...
As each family sequentially reported their achievements, Sato Kawa began distributing the millions of Mist Half-Snake People from the Mist Swamp according to each party’s contribution ratio.
"Based on the contributions, our Sato family and Fusang Imperial Family share a total of one million Mist Half-Snake People, including two Seventh Rank Mist Half-Snake People."
Upon hearing this first allocation, the Annihilation Starship Captains glanced at each other in group chat, with many seeming to have objections, yet ultimately, no one dared to speak up due to Sato Kawa’s identity as a Galaxy Captain.
"The Yama Family receives eighty thousand Mist Half-Snake People!"
"The Yanai family receives one hundred twenty thousand Mist Half-Snake People!"
...
"The Dragon Spine Song Family receives one hundred forty thousand Mist Half-Snake People!"
...
Upon hearing this figure, Song Wujiang’s eyes narrowed even further, filled with cold laughter inside.
According to the previously announced achievements, the Yanai family merely contributed one Second Level Snake Demon Holy City and killed two Seventh Level Eight-Armed Snake Demons. Their allocation of Mist Half-Snake People is only twenty thousand less than Song’s family, obviously showing that this allocation is highly unreasonable.
At that moment, many Annihilation Starship Captains in the group chat looked over one after another.
In response, Song Wujiang acted as if he hadn’t heard and did not make any response.
The representative forces simply presumed this was the Song Family bowing down before a Galaxy Captain. What they didn’t know was Song Wujiang wasn’t actually submitting, but merely waiting for an opportune moment.
’From the looks of it, the Sato family and Fusang Imperial Family are clearly not prepared to share this Copper Snake Floating Land with other forces. Just wait, you’ll end up fighting among yourselves!’
As Song Wujiang secretly speculated, the allocation among various forces in the group chat concluded.
Just as Song Wujiang anticipated, after announcing the full allocation of Mist Half-Snake People, Sato Kawa said nothing further.
Seeing this, those Immortal Powers finally couldn’t sit still.
At this point, a voice of confusion rang from an Annihilation Starship Captain:
"Lord Sato, isn’t something missing? The Mist Swamp is a continual source of Mist Half-Snake People. My Tuoba family doesn’t ask for much, just 1% of the future Mist Swamp output!"
The speaker was a Prince from the Tuoba Family of the Silver Disk Kingdom’s royal family, which is not affiliated with the Fusang Dynasty. Therefore, despite his apprehension about a Galaxy Captain, he stood up for the growth of Tuoba Family in the future.
Once one person raised an objection, follow-up voices of agreement quickly emerged.
"Indeed, a whole Mist Swamp is quite large. With proper planning, breeding millions of Mist Half-Snake People in the future is completely feasible. Such a large treasure land can’t possibly be monopolized by your two families, right?"
"Yes, our Hong Family is equally not greedy; 1% will suffice!"
...
Listening to the live rebuttals of representatives from different forces in the group chat, Sato Kawa’s eyes narrowed slightly, with a dangerous glint sweeping through his gaze.
Seeing this, the representatives of other forces instantly felt a sense of foreboding.
However, the terrifying benefits from the Mist Swamp over the millennium and beyond kept them suppressing their inner panic, insisting firmly on wanting a share of the Mist Swamp.
(Anyhow, the Divine Dynasty has long issued strict instructions against internal conflict...)
This was the inner self-reassuring thought that flashed most frequently through the representatives’ minds at the moment.
Unexpectedly, a rapid breaking sound suddenly came from the side below. As everyone turned their eyes, seeing it was just a Fusang Dynasty’s Fearless Ship, they did not pay further attention.
However, what no one anticipated was that this seemingly unremarkable Fearless Ship quickly delivered a shocking piece of news to the entire audience.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the little fellows below have just received some latest news, we all need to listen to it together!"
With that said, Sato Kawa directly pulled this Fearless Ship into the communication group chat.
This Fearless Captain from the Fusang Dynasty wasted no time. As soon as his projection appeared in the group chat, he began reporting:
"According to the latest information obtained by our Fusang Dynasty’s Dark Ninja Department, there is still one Seventh Rank Eight-Armed Snake Demon remaining on the Copper Snake Floating Land!"
"Impossible!"
Upon hearing this news, all the Annihilation Starship Captains in the group chat collectively had a change of expression, as this is no small matter. Missing one Seventh Rank Eight-Armed Snake Demon is a serious dereliction of duty.
Compared to the others, Song Wujiang’s reaction was bigger. As soon as he heard the news, his heart sank, and his already cold gaze became even icier, looking directly at Sato Kawa without any concealment.
As expected, the words of the Fusang Dynasty’s Fearless Captain next were aimed directly at the Song Family.
"According to the full investigation by our Dark Ninja Department, it was discovered that the initial appearance place of this Seventh Rank Eight-Armed Snake Demon was in West Third District."
It was a coincidence, too much of a coincidence, to the point where all the representatives of the various forces in the group chat had somber expressions.
At times like this, anyone could see the hidden tricks, but they were clearly not worried about the Song Family.
If Sato River could deal with the Song Family in this simplest yet inexplicable way, then what about them?
Everyone quickly imagined themselves in the role of the Song Family, then they discovered with an unpleasant surprise that if they truly angered Sato River, he could deal with them in exactly the same way.
Before they could think further, Sato River’s cold voice had already been heard.
"Dragon Spine Song Family, you missed a top-tier mission target. Now I announce the cancellation of all previous allocations to the Dragon Spine Song Family, and as a punishment for the mission, all the gains obtained this time on Copper Snake Floating Land must be handed over!"
Upon hearing this, the cold smile on Song Wujiang’s face had already become fully manifest, without any attempt to conceal it.
"Ha... Master Sato, what a skillful move, should I applaud you now?"
His mocking words, laden with sarcasm, reverberated straight through the communication group chat.
Honestly speaking, was this method brilliant? No, it’s not only not brilliant but actually quite low-level.
However, if it were an ordinary Immortal Clan, this kind of low-level method would be nearly insoluble.
Because, at this moment, this United Fleet is commanded by the opponent, and the opponent has not intervened from start to finish. If one were to forcibly confront him, he would have every reason to suppress them.
Make a scene to the Divine Dynasty? Or seek justice from the fleet guardians behind?
Don’t be ridiculous, with no close kinship and a reasonable excuse, what reason would a Galaxy Captain have to clash with another Galaxy Captain over you?
Maybe relying on personal charm?
But that’s just for ordinary forces; the Song Family is different.
Under the scrutiny of dozens of gazes, Song Wujiang’s body was overflowing with Spectral Energy, even extending a thick Seventh Rank pressure throughout the entire Dinghai Dragon Steed.
In the group chat, he enunciated word by word:
"What if I say, my Song Family does not agree with this result?"
Instantly, the group chat fell into complete silence.
The representatives of various forces did not speak because they were exclaiming in their hearts.
"Is the Song Family crazy?"
"In this situation, Sato River can completely suppress the entire Song Family on the grounds of disobeying orders. Song Wujiang doesn’t think that by relying on the numerical advantage of Seventh Rank combat power, he can truly confront a Galaxy Ship, does he?"
"Mad, absolutely mad, but I like it. The bigger the scene, the better. If it attracts the Divine Dynasty’s investigation team, that’ll be even better!"
And Sato River did not speak because he was laughing loudly in his heart.
Since ascending to the position of Galaxy Captain, rarely had anyone dared to speak so boldly in front of him.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
On the million-kilometer-long Galaxy Ship hull, a majestic aura began to overflow. Compared to the oppression of Star-Annihilating Starships, the aura of this Galaxy Ship was a hundred times stronger.
At this moment, there were sudden disturbances from the Song Family Fleet below. At the very front of a certain Azure Dragon Fleet, the hatch of a silver-white Fearless Ship suddenly opened, and a red bloody shadow rushed out in the next second.
Once this bloody shadow emerged from the Fearless Ship, its body began to rapidly expand.
In just the blink of an eye, the bloody figure had swollen to a height of tens of thousands of kilometers, and its aura was approaching the Seventh Rank Peak.
Witnessing this, bursts of astonishment were transmitted from the dozens of Star-Annihilating Starships above.
"Another brand new Seventh Rank enslaved species; where on earth did the Song Family get so many dominant creatures?"
"If I’m not mistaken, this should be a Seventh Rank Asura King, right? The combat power of such a being is quite outstanding among those of the same rank."
"It’s a pity, it’s just a Seventh Rank Asura, even if it’s a Seventh Rank Peak... no, wait, the size of this Asura is still expanding!"
"A million kilometers, it has already entered the Eighth Rank level!"
"Hiss, half a foot into the Eighth Rank Peak, the Asura Emperor, Song Family... so this is the true confidence of the Song Family!"
...
Swish!
A bloody breeze swept through, the Eighth Rank Asura Emperor had already flown to the side of [Dinghai Dragon Steed], wielding a blood-colored long sword, its crimson eyes fixed intently on Sato River’s Galaxy Ship ahead.
Although there had never been a word from beginning to end, the actions of this Asura Emperor had already clearly demonstrated the Song Family’s response.
Even though it is the captain of a Galaxy Ship, trying to deliberately target with such a low-level slander, my Song Family will never yield, let alone confront it head-on.
Directly opposite, Galaxy Ship Control Room.
Sato River’s vision seemed to have flames rising within it, his gaze at the Asura Emperor cold and sinister.
It’s not that he feared the Asura Emperor, having stepped into the role of Galaxy Captain for tens of thousands of years, though not considered an old-school Galaxy Captain, his flagship’s combat power would never be weaker than that of an ordinary Eighth Rank Peak being. The reason he had not made any response was because he knew very well that this farce could not continue.
If he could suppress the Song Family in an overwhelming manner, the above warships might not intervene.
But if it’s an Eighth Rank battle, the nature completely changes.
