Chapter 210: Attacking Merchants
"The intel?" the droid asked to confirm what he just heard.
"Yes, the intel," James casually answered as he sat at his seat while muttering, "she has grown up already, hehehe."
Since the unlocking of his true potential, he never stayed as much far away from women like he had this time. This made him quite sensitive, and wanted to pump any of his ladies much eagerly than anytime before.
And so at this moment, Dora seemed quite appealing to him, arousing all his suppressed desires.
"Nah, have to wait," he tried to control himself before adding, "I have a war to fight first."
He tried to sound reasonable and quite normal to that witch watching his back. She had been low on his nagging radar lately, but everytime she spoke she proved to him she wasn't that negligent to his actions.
And so he didn't lower his guard, not now, not against someone as cunning as her.
"The fleets are about to arrive," the droid said after four hours of waiting.
"Finally," James said before sitting straight with much seriousness on his face, "send me live feeds from there."
"Roger that," the droid showed what he received from the main cruisers leading the attack over three big holographic screens.
James started to watch closely while he said, "send the same to Rigo and Dora."
"Done," the droid had already done this as part of the espionage protocol of the fleet.
"Did Dora send the reports about that area yet?" James suddenly asked while he waited for the fleets to emerge from hyperspace travel.
"Sure, I'll send them to your screen now," the droid sent the short report to James' personal screen that he held in both hands while reading the content.
"Hmm that's nice," he said as Dora explained the current situation in these simple phrases: "The place is chaotic with many fleets coming here trying to save whoever managed to run at the proper time. Some warring ships are there, but not many. The place is ideal to attack."
Her opinion matched his and Rigo's, so when the ships appeared out of the light speed travel, they were met with a scene resembling one word; chaos!
Everywhere around was filled with running small cruisers, while only a handful of dozens of large cruisers appeared sporadically trying to calm down the situation and control the chaos.
And with the sudden appearance of James' grand fleets, everyone got panicked instantly.
"Let them press forward," James was smiling as after an entire day of this sudden attack, the heart of the Terases empire was hit mercilessly by his fleets, creating a deep wound inside the empire.
And to face this, the Terases empire started to deploy fleets from everywhere like they were throwing rocks from the ground.
Yet they lacked coordination, and James didn't want to give them time to amend this fatal weakness. So, he gave the order for the fleets to push further, even sacrificing some of their own ships to maintain the current advantageous pressure over the enemies.
"Inform the about to arrive fleets, make them be deployed here, here, and here," James pointed on the map of the grand sector while he selected many places for the new fleets still on the road to land in.
"Roger that."
He selected these areas so he would deepen the gap he created in the Terases empire, plus interrupting any strong reinforcements.
According to Rigo and Dora, these places would be the perfect places for any fleets to regroup and be formed. Hitting these places would make his vanguard fleets much secured and easier to control more areas.
"Dora asks to move and help," the droid suddenly said, yet James decisively said: "Denied, it's not the time for such rashness now."
"Delivered," the droid said before turning to say again, "she asks about when?"
"Soon," James simply replied before moving his attention towards the map of the current war. "How about the current rebellious moves here?" he suddenly asked.
"We didn't receive any reports for days," the droid said before adding, "and our untel gave back positive reports from everywhere. No signs of rebellion are waving in the distance."
"Don't be so confident," James muttered before thinking about something. "Make the boys ready, we might join the fun soon," he said and the droid just smiled as he started relaying his orders.
James didn't plan to jump in so early, but he wanted his grand fleets to be ready. He currently had three major fleets securing the empire. It seemed a large number of ships, but considering the massive and still growing size of his empire; this number was barely enough.
"What's that?" James suddenly received a strange report. "Why are these going berserk at this time?" he felt suspicious as the reports he received spoke about the monsters scattered all over his territory.
They had undergone an upgrade, and now they had become more ferocious, bigger in size, and harder to kill.
And of course they were causing much ruckus at the moment all over his empire.
"Sigh," he shook his head before deciding, "this is a move from my enemy. Spread the word, one major fleet will be dispersed instantly and all the small cruisers will go and aid the habituated planets in the empire and the large cruisers will guard the systems and aid if needed."
"Roger that," the droid said before adding, "what about the fighters? Medium sized cruiser?"
"They will follow the same rules as the small cruisers," James said without much care, "also make one big cruiser responsible for guarding here. We don't have many enemies left in this grand sector, but who knows!"
"Done!"
"Assemble all the fleets ready to move, and let them all wait for my command to move out at any moment," he suddenly said as he knew this wasn't the end of his enemy's retaliation.
He already cornered his enemy, and by the arrival of the new fleets to the front battles; the enemy was already seeing its death drawing near.
