Tempest of the Stellar War

Panda Novel

The Milky Way Alliance was very lively. and the media was having a field day. They were waiting for the triumph return of the fleet. Only the Solar System remained silent as usual. That was the code that the Solar System had maintained throughout the past few decades. Of course, they firmly supported the counterattack on the terrorist group and gave their resources as well. They were only hoping to be cautious. Any terrorist groups daring to threaten the Milky Way Alliance definitely had backing.

The fleet this time was too huge, representing humanity’s dignity. Humanity had no rivals for so many years in interstellar exploration. The commanders of the various countries said that they would deliver the enemy a fatal blow, but could they really?

The higher echelons of the Solar System had been arguing over whether or not they should send a fleet.

Many believed that this was an opportunity for the Solar System. They had been lying low while honing themselves, especially so in the past two decades. Their finances had been used for military expansion, which increased exponentially every year. Wouldn’t it be the best time to show the results?

The opportunity was great. The risk was rather small when tugging behind the Alliance fleet as well. Showcasing their prowess in front of the other countries had been in their thoughts for some time now.

In the end, parliament rejected it. It was contrary to the trend and caused an uproar.

Was this action something the Solar System should take? What constituted the big powers? They had to show influence in international affairs and they had resources, but what about the military?

Drachmach, Lie Wuqing, and Meng Ao were under tremendous pressure. The reformists had the upper hand. However, they were suddenly paralyzed when it was time to showcase their strength. This was giving the conservatives a chance to fight back. Their days weren’t going to be easy.

Fortunately, Ye Bingwen gave them great support in parliament. The real strength wasn’t in following the crowd. The strength of the fleet was there. Due to their geological location, the Solar System fleet could only join them three days later. Obviously, this was too much, so they would be better as logistical support. In any case, was sending a small fleet a manifestation of their power?

That would just be herd mentality.

Ye Bingwen knew that the people were just not happy. The Sage… was also a theist. He doubted that, but he respected him. The Lie family wouldn’t say something for no reason. They specifically sought Ye Bingwen out to obtain his support. Mars and the Moon had always been supportive of him. Ye Bingwen reserved his own opinion on this matter. Something else would have to be going on if he could make a decision even though Meng Ao’s own daughter was there.

Titatitan Star…

The sky was covered with dark clouds, and lightning and thunder struck. Someone saw huge figures in the skies tearing through the woods. Of course, the only ones that fit the bill would be the elite forces of the Tita Giants. The strongest force on Tita was the Saruman Snake battle team!

“That’s in the Holy Land, could the legend be true?”

“What? I’ve never heard of the Holy Land.”

“That’s the forbidden zone of the Titans, they can’t even enter. Legend has it that they were born there. Recently, there were rumors that the Holy Land has had some strange sightings. I don’t know if that’s true or not. The Saruman Snake battle team has been deployed, so something must be happening.”

“Please don’t let anything happen to Tita. It just obtained peace, my home is here.”

Wang Zheng and the rest were on the way to Tita. They had mulled over it for quite some time, changing their course numerous times. The influence of the Saint was everywhere. Old Merchant knew that, so they had to be cautious all the way until they arrived at Tita. It was the only place where they could protect Wang Zheng.

The crowd in the simple cabin still found it hard to believe. Even if it was Alan Tucker, how was it possible?

“I only realized it recently. The Saint and the Aslan Empire must have a connection. Yuan Jing, you didn’t see Huiyin when you barged into the laboratory, right?” Old Merchant laughed bitterly.

Yuan Jing’s expression turned serious. “I didn’t see her, but I don’t have any recollection. Perhaps she’s being held somewhere special?”

Kang Siqi and Huo Dong exchanged glances. “We didn’t find Huiyin when we invaded their system. Perhaps…”

“I inevitably came into contact with some of the Saint’s core secrets when I was put in charge of the space project and the fleet transfer. There had been many clues pointing towards Aslan over the past few years. No, I am certain. I just didn’t know how deep the participation of the Aslan Empire is.” Old Merchant sighed. That was precisely when he felt that this was even more scary than he had thought.

“Isn’t the expedition of the Alliance really dangerous if that’s the case? We should report it immediately!” Mars suddenly said. Jondi Lilick agreed wholeheartedly.

Old Merchant shook his head bitterly. “We have no evidence. Don’t pin your hopes on me either. I’m in the blacklist of the Milky Way Alliance. Moreover, the Aslan Empire could have numerous excuses. There’s no use. I’m only giving you a heads up.”

This was why Old Merchant wanted Wang Zheng to leave with him. Wang Zheng would listen to no one but Old Merchant. There was no helping the situation even if he were to stay. They could save Meng Tian, but they could never get close to Lin Huiyin. Moreover, Old Merchant felt that something major was going to happen soon. It wasn’t something Wang Zheng could be involved in for now.

What they needed to do now was hide well until the situation improved. They were definitely the be at top of the Saint’s wanted list.

Jondi Lilick and the rest were smart. This was a suspicion at best without any evidence. Unless there was some incriminating evidence, there was no helping things.

Xie Yuxin had been silent throughout the journey, staring at the galaxy outside. It seemed extraordinary. If it wasn’t for Wang Zheng, he could have been there playing for a bit longer. A nice show might be underway.

Wang Zheng and Old Merchant’s destination was Tita Star. It would be difficult for the Saint to reach the huge Tita unless they were really in cohorts with the Milky Way Alliance. Xie Yuxin, Jondi Lilick, and the rest were going to return to Elite Academy X. Of course, they would be questioned, but they had prepared their stories. They would be dead the moment they stepped onto Roland Garros if all this was true. However, they didn’t know who their enemy was now, and they didn’t want to just fall into the hands of the enemy.

Yuan Jing, Kang Siqi, and Huo Dong would follow Meng Tian wherever she wanted to go, be it the Galaxy Military College or Tita.

Wang Zheng and Meng Tian didn’t have a chance to be alone throughout the trip. Their glances met and Meng Tian’s determination nearly melted.

This was her only man.

These few young people certainly felt the pressure.

Old Merchant was very calm. He had gone through too much throughout his life. The peaks, the troughs – all that didn’t matter to him anymore. He had no other desires. Whatever Wang Zheng wanted to do would be what he wanted to do.
