The Last Commander of the Red Alert

Chapter 819: Radiant Light Empire (2)



ALL NOVELS' LIST | Chapter List: The Last Commander of the Red Alert XXX-----XXX-----XXX-----XXX In the video feed, the Red Alert soldier,

In the video feed, the Red Alert soldier, who was diligently chopping wood, suddenly shuddered. His entire body disappeared from the spot, leaving only his axe behind.

"Zoom in a thousand times!"

No one could clearly see what had just happened, so Alice decisively continued to slow down the playback.

Even at a thousand times magnification, the situation remained unclear. All that could be seen was the unnatural shudder of the Red Alert soldier's body, and then he was gone.

No one could discern the nature of the attack; even in that brief moment, a Psychic shield did not appear. It was truly unbelievable.

"It seemed like spatial teleportation just now?" Leng Yuwei said uncertainly.

"It does resemble spatial power. The question is, how did the other side ignore the Protective Shield of the Base itself?" Su Chen expressed his confusion.

After all, once the Base was established, it could construct an energy Protective Shield enveloping the entire Base. This shield could withstand any attack, even spatial power, albeit with significant impact.

"Libra, any progress on the mutated Nuclear Bomb that Yun Ru was researching before?"

Initially, Su Chen acquired a Nuclear Bomb undergoing unique changes from Guangtou Qiang's World, providing substantial improvement potential.

The Base's default Nuclear Bomb was too powerful; using it recklessly could destroy an entire planet. Hence, the ideal solution was a mutated Nuclear Bomb—more potent than a regular one but still not surpassing the Base's Nuclear Bomb.

"Yun Ru seems to have almost completed the research; only some finishing touches remain, which I can handle."

"Good, research the mutated Nuclear Bomb and produce it immediately. Throw it onto the island. I refuse to believe that after a Nuclear Bomb, whatever is inside won't show itself!" The opponent's actions had angered Su Chen, and he was determined to put an end to their arrogance.

Libra respectfully saluted and headed directly to the Operations Laboratory to continue Yun Ru's unfinished work.

Several days later, Libra successfully researched the mutated Nuclear Bomb and had it transported to the Warships around the island. It was then launched.

The enormous mutated Nuclear Bomb exploded in the central area of the island, creating a mushroom cloud. The entire island shook violently.

Su Chen, with a cold expression, watched the scene unfold. In just a few seconds, the entity in the middle of the island finally reacted. A massive light shield rose, enveloping all the mushroom clouds, causing them to disappear.

"Alice, what's happening over there?"

"The radiation levels in the air are rapidly decreasing. They have completely disappeared now," Alice reported.

Su Chen's expression changed. That was the radiation from a Nuclear Bomb. In a short period, intense radiation could likely kill ordinary Transcendents. Yet, it vanished due to that shield. What kind of technology was this?

From this, it seemed like there wasn't a biological entity inside but rather something with advanced technology.

Since it was advanced technology, the Red Alert Empire had never feared anyone.

"It can eliminate radiation, right? Then, let's send it a few more Nuclear Bombs."

As one Nuclear Bomb after another exploded on the island, the appearance of the light shield became slower. Finally, the other party seemed unable to bear it any longer and sent a message to the Warship directly: "Invader, cease your actions. You are challenging a great Empire!"

Su Chen raised an eyebrow. Calling them Invaders wasn't wrong, but the fact that the other side referred to themselves as an Empire—was this some contingency left behind by the Rota Empire?

"I've never heard of another Empire in the Milky Way." Su Chen's voice transmitted.

Soon, the response came, "Milky Way? Do you mean that nearly endless river? Tell me, where is this place!"

Su Chen sneered, "Before asking others, don't you intend to reveal your own origins?"

Judging from the voice alone, the other party might not be human. This stiff and mechanical voice—was it an artificial intelligence?

The other party remained silent for a few minutes, seemingly analyzing whether to disclose its origins. Finally, it seemed to have made up its mind.

"I can reveal my origins. In reciprocity, you must disclose yours."

"Sure." Su Chen found the artificial intelligence of the other party somewhat naive.

This wasn't surprising; unless it evolved self-consciousness like Alice, ordinary artificial intelligence tended to be quite naive in certain aspects.

"I am an artificial intelligence from the Radiant Light Empire, Base number 8752, Invader. Disclose your origins."

Su Chen didn't immediately respond but contemplated. Where was the Radiant Light Empire? In the Human Galactic Domain that he knew, there seemed to be no Empire by that name.

Just then, the second Spy, who hadn't been in contact for a long time, suddenly sent a message: "Commander, I have successfully replaced an Advanced Mentor, gaining control of the Star Map of all human territories!"

Su Chen's eyes lit up. It seemed like fortune favored the prepared mind. The second Spy's information came at the perfect time.

The second Spy transmitted the Star Map, and Su Chen opened it. In the areas that were once dark, numerous names now covered them—the various Empires within the Human Galactic Domain.

He carefully looked through them, and there were a total of 103 Empires. He went through the list, but he didn't find the name of the Radiant Light Empire. Similarly, the Feathered Warbler Empire was also absent.

The Feathered Warbler Empire wasn't within the range of the Human Galactic Domain, as he had suspected. The Star Map from the second Spy only confirmed this suspicion.

The question was, where exactly was the Radiant Light Empire?

"I am the Emperor of the Red Alert Empire in the Milky Way, and I've never heard of the Radiant Light Empire. You are lying!" Su Chen sternly shouted.

The other party's artificial intelligence seemed a bit confused, and after a while, it said, "Red Alert Empire, what Empire is that? There is absolutely no mention of this Empire in my database. How could you not know the great Radiant Light Empire?"

Apparently, the other party found it inconceivable that Su Chen was unaware of the Radiant Light Empire.

"As part of the Human Galactic Domain, among tens of thousands of Empires, the Radiant Light Empire ranks in the top ten. How is it possible that you've never heard of such a great Empire?" Su Chen keenly noticed the phrase 'tens of thousands of Empires.' Currently, there were only 103 Empires. Where did the 'tens of thousands' come from?

Suddenly, a thought struck him, and he couldn't help but say, "Currently, there are only a hundred Empires in the Human Galactic Domain. The Radiant Light Empire you're talking about, could it be one of the Empires from the earlier days of the Human Galactic Domain?"

The other party seemed to pause for a moment, and after a while, its voice came through, "What year is it now?"

Each Empire had its own standard for defining the year, but during high-ranking negotiations among humans, they had established a unified year—the Universal Calendar.

"It is the Universal Calendar 9,824,2333."

One Universal Year equaled ten thousand calendar years, and one calendar year equaled ten thousand years. In other words, since the establishment of the Universal Calendar until now, humans had existed for nine hundred million years!
