Chapter 1201: Chapter 703: Empire’s Declining Sun_2 Chapter 1201: Chapter 703: Empire’s Declining Sun_2 The scene looked somewhat ridiculous.

Thirty huge and grotesque heavy-load spiders stood dispersedly, surrounding a small ore with five even smaller Beetles.

Mata and Edgar’s Beetles seemed pitifully weak and helpless in comparison.

However, they couldn’t afford to lose in terms of momentum. Edgar snorted, “Who are you? What are you doing here?”

Very arrogant and imposing, but their equipment was subpar, and they could be easily crushed by others.

“Hello, are you Nico Ross from Flying Tiger Team? I’m Oliver Gavin, the captain of the K3152 Star Representative Team.”

The other party replied, but they were not talking to Edgar, but to Nico Ross, who was protected behind him.

Nico Ross gave a hum and took a step forward with his Beetle, signaling Edgar and Mata to step back and not to panic.

“Yes, thank you.”

“Well, since you already know our purpose, let’s not talk too much. It’s not very safe here, I suggest you move with us immediately.”

“I’m afraid I’ll have to wait for my teammates.”

Oliver Gavin: “Wait a moment, we’ve received new orders.”

Oear-Gavin’s expression changed drastically after he said this and glanced at his notification bar.

At the same time, Nico Ross also received new notifications.

The specific information received by different teams had slight differences.

For the 70% of the people who were going to be replaced, the order was to stop any action immediately, retreat to a safe environment, wait for new instructions, and then orderly exit the remote brain link and wait to be replaced.

For the remaining 30% who were allowed to continue participating in the mission, if they were already in a safe environment, they were to execute the Absolute Link immediately. If they were near the Flying Tiger Team and heading to them, they were to rendezvous with the Flying Tiger Team first, enter a safe area, and then activate the Absolute Link.

However, some information was exactly the same.

It was that a fundamental strategic adjustment had taken place in this military competition of the entire Morrowind Empire. The overall operational guideline had changed from competitive to a top-level special operation on the Third Front.

All team’s final goals were adjusted to occupying and controlling the Glenoid Tribe Star to the greatest extent possible. The identity of the contestants was directly converted to active military personnel.

Three hours later, all team’s communications would be integrated into a single global communication channel, and a new overall Commander would take over the entire operation.

“Let’s go to our base. It’s a bit rudimentary, but there are only low-level units active near our activity area, which is safer than the mining area you were in before.”

“Alright.”

Nico Ross and the others jumped onto the back of Oliver Gavin’s heavy-load spider, and the group turned back the way they had come, meeting up with Quentin Wallace and the others on the way.

Not far away, Bainesta and his Glory Special Combat Team awakened from their concealment.

After a brief adjustment, the group controlled the mound-like tier-4 units to successively drill out of the ground.

At the other end, many Morrowind Empire’s decision-makers in the current fields of military, politics, science, and commerce, including Bernal Connor, Neville Brown, Dylan Mitchell, Andrei, Simon Camp, Nora Camp, Mr. Green, Perkin, Garon Wescott, Dillon, Geoffrey Carnegie, Idris Graham, Matilda, Immanuel, and Hope Owen, gathered together.

Thanks to the powerful communication and information integration capabilities brought by the star, human bureaucracy and efficiency have improved significantly.

There were 6,000 participants in the meeting on the surface.

But behind every participant, there were an average of hundreds of thousands of people forming a huge think-tank warm.

A total of 3 billion people attended the meeting directly or indirectly. The 3 billion people were from different star regions, ranging from tens to hundreds of light-years apart.

The decisions made by these 3 billion people would determine the fate of the nearly 3 trillion individual human civilization.

At the meeting, everyone unanimously approved Dylan Mitchell’s proposal to launch a full-scale offensive ahead of time.

Human beings and Compound-Eyed Observers have been entangled for hundreds of years, constantly exchanging cards and assessing their opposition’s strength.

With the great victory of the Expeditionary Army at the front line, humans have continuously pushed the battle line forward, gradually gaining a significant advantage, supported by the endless reinforcements from the Sky Hole Stargate and the rear, managing to hold the bridgehead position of the Cloudtop Star Region despite numerous setbacks.

On the surface, humans seemed to have the absolute upper hand, just by completing their technological breakthrough and waiting for the Sages to awaken, the total offensive could begin with a high chance of success.

But this was war, and the course of events could not simply follow one side’s wishes.

Humans never underestimated their enemy. The fact that the main force of the Compound-Eyed Observer’s Prism Ship had not appeared yet was always a cause for concern.

Now, the seemingly completely disadvantaged Compound-Eyed Observers finally brought out something new – the Glenoid Tribe Evolutionary Form.

Initially, humans did not pay too much attention to this, but after Nico Ross revealed it, all the staff members, including Dylan Mitchell, immediately adjusted their thinking.

Assuming Nico Ross’s judgment was correct without questioning the reasons, they worked backwards through all possible scenarios and finally concluded that Nico Ross’s judgment was probably correct.

The perfect evolutionary form combining Pseudo-human, Compound-Eyed Observers’ Main Body, Egyptian Tribe, and Glenoid Tribe might indeed be the trump card that the Compound-Eyed Observers were using to launch a major counteroffensive.

Moreover, as the Reincarnation of Sages, Nico Ross was now stranded on the Glenoid Tribe Star and could not be ignored.

Due to the special nature of the Iron Wall Chain Array, it was almost impossible to infiltrate for a second time and get Nico Ross out of there.

If they inadvertently alerted the enemy and caused the Compound-Eyed Observers to recognize the clues and destroy the Glenoid Tribe Star, humans would have no recourse.
