“Green Skins are born for war; as long as they keep fighting, the development speed of Green Skin spores within the same tribe will increase, resulting in more and more Green Skin aliens. It’s not just about the numbers, their technology also grows rapidly in the process.”

Matins was carefully supplementing Gu Hang’s knowledge about the ‘cancer of the universe.’

“Fortunately, you didn’t lose. If they had won a key battle, their growth rate would have escalated even more. In fact, those guys at Rubbish Town already handed those Green Skins a victory, basically stepping on the accelerator of their tribal development.”

“Thankfully, this Green Skin Tribe hasn’t been developing for long, and their starting point was in the urban ruins, where they say Low Energy Storms often blow through… If it was a warm forested area, with more fertile land, we might be facing millions of Green Skins.”

“Facing such an enemy, engaging in an attrition war is not a smart choice. A human soldier takes twenty years from birth to become a qualified warrior; those Green Skins can fight as soon as they emerge from the ground.”

“If we don’t resolve this issue quickly, we could be facing not just twenty thousand Green Skin Orcs, but double that number of Green Skins, and ten times that number of low-level Green Skin creatures like fart spirits. Their technology could even advance further, with cannons becoming more powerful and reaching further, and armed trucks becoming bigger and more ferocious. It wouldn’t be surprising if some beings that could be likened to demons or monsters appeared; sometimes among the Green Skin race, there are beings that rely solely on physical strength and can match a star warrior in combat.”

…

After hearing Matins’ extensive information about the Green Skins, Gu Hang’s face had completely darkened.

Some of his previous plans had to be overturned.

Just as Matins described, the best way to counter such an enemy is to flatten them in one fell swoop, avoiding any attrition war and not hoping to reduce the enemy’s numbers. Even if one doesn’t flatten them in one go, it’s essential to reduce their numbers to a very low level.

Otherwise, the subsequent troubles would be endless.

“I understand what you mean, thank you for the information,” Gu Hang thanked Matins and then made a request, “I will contact the ‘Quintet’ right away. Colonel Yelisia will provide us with orbital strike support. Once the orbital strike firepower cover is in place, we’ll immediately launch an attack. Let’s set it for three days from now.”

Matins nodded, “Three days should be fine.”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“Then it’s settled; we’ll still need your help when the time comes.”

…

Three days was the time Gu Hang needed to distribute equipment to the garrison divisions and spend the grace points to train them to T5 level.

This was a necessary preparation of the troops.

Meanwhile, he also used this time to have an in-depth communication with Yelisia in space.

When Yelisia’s holographic image appeared in front of him, he saw the golden-haired woman captain elegantly slicing a piece of steak and having a glass of red wine on the side.

Gu Hang’s mouth twitched slightly.

These were the supplies he had sent up to the Quintet.

The ‘Quintet’ had its own synthetic starch production capability and had replenished military logistics supplies before departing for Rage Owl Star. Even without any new supplies during the two years of the mission, they wouldn’t starve, but they couldn’t expect to eat too well.

After all, she had helped a lot, so Gu Hang had to show some appreciation.

When he was poor before, Gu Hang would remember to load up the return transport ships with consumer goods after scrounging wool from Yelisia. Now, he would do even more so.

Of course, the Quintet did not dispatch ships specifically for logistical supplies. Otherwise, the cost of the transport ship taking off and landing would not even be worth the food transported…

The last time the transport ship came, it was on serious business.

There was a squad of Battle Nuns from the Saintly Lily who had come down, which was support summoned by Superior Georgette. From the Sisterhood headquarters on Korolya III, twenty Battle Nuns had arrived at Rage Owl Star.

Including the two who had died, there were twenty-nine of them in total.

Superior Georgette had taken issue with the Primordial Wrath Owl Sect, and in the previous period, they had finished their investigation within Revival City, capturing some deeply hidden Cult members.

During the previous period, the twenty-nine Battle Nuns had already left Revival City, following the clues they had acquired, and headed north.

Gu Hang hoped they would have good luck.

If they could solve the problem of the Cult on Rage Owl Star by themselves, nothing would be better. And if they needed help, Gu Hang would not be stingy.

After all, they were essentially doing work on his behalf.

And the ship that had brought down the twenty Battle Nuns, on its return journey, also took one of Colonel Yelisia’s most valued items: a letter of commendation.

The letter of commendation was personally written by Gu Hang. It essentially expressed his gratitude, in his capacity as the Governor of Rage Owl Star, for Colonel Yelisia’s outstanding contribution to combating and eradicating followers of the Evil God who did not worship The Emperor, as well as the Evil God’s projections.

Of course, if the letter were only written by Gu Hang himself, it wouldn’t be of much use.
