Soul Land IV (Douluo Dalu) : Ultimate Fighting

Chapter 1558: Chapter 1558 Commanding with Composure

“We are unable to receive the frontline signals, which must be the result of a complete signal disruption. However, the Deep Red Realm is currently only semi-surrounding the Celestial Harmony Star, not fully encircling it. Therefore, the blockage is likely due to the comprehensive defense of the Celestial Harmony Clan. This is what prevents us from receiving the frontline situation promptly, making it difficult to determine the current status of the front line.”

“So what do you plan to do now? Do we still refrain from aiding for the time being?” the Sky Horse Knight asked.

Lan Xuanyu said, “The original plan remains unchanged: continue to approach, but do not rush to take action. Moreover, I need to alter the marching route to take a more concealed path. The Celestial Harmony Battleship has not appeared yet. If my previous assessment is correct, they possess a planetary-level defense method to fend off the Deep Red Realm. Therefore, they are likely far from reaching a desperate point. According to previous information from the Second Seat, the Celestial Harmony Clan was informed that our reinforcements would arrive within seven days. Hence, as long as we appear on the seventh day, we won’t have breached our promise. We will remain hidden, and when the time is right, act accordingly. The accumulation of the Celestial Harmony Clan may be stronger than we anticipated. However, the Deep Red Realm is the most formidable opponent. Even if our reinforcements arrive, we may not be able to enter the Celestial Harmony Star immediately; we can still engage in outer space maneuvering with the enemy.”

“Getting closer to the battlefield will allow us to better grasp firsthand battlefield conditions, and then decide how to provide support. Therefore, given the current situation, my suggestion is to continue approaching the battlefield and act according to the situation.”

The Mantis King said, “I’m fine with that, let’s go with your plan.”

The Eight-Armed Demon God King also said nonchalantly, “Let’s start the battle sooner. It’s been a long time since we had a real fight, and my people are eager for combat. Only real battles can truly evolve them.”

The Sky Horse Knight smiled slightly and said, “It’s excellent for the commander to remain calm in the face of sudden changes, we also agree.”

Moke Dragon Knight Luo Lan, listening to all three sides agreeing, just nodded to Lan Xuanyu with a smile.

What is the most feared situation for an army executing a mission? It’s encountering unexpected situations and the commander exhibiting panic. Once the commander panics, the entire army could fall into a dilemma.

Without receiving any frontline signals, Lan Xuanyu could still calmly assess, analyze, and make reactive decisions to cope with various unexpected situations, earning further recognition from the leaders of these different clans.

Reassuring the leaders of all clans allowed the fleet to fully follow his orders and continue operations smoothly.

Changing the original route, bypassing through the side of an asteroid belt, and continuing towards the Celestial Harmony Star, their speed slightly increased since they needed to take a detour. In about two days, they would reach near the Celestial Harmony Star, ready for battle.

While making the decision, Lan Xuanyu quickly relayed the decision and progress back to the Sky Dragon Planet, reporting to the Sky Dragon Assembly.

Although he was a temporary commander with the authority to adapt, all command activities required reporting to the Sky Dragon Assembly for approval and for sharing updates.

Lan Xuanyu was confident in his commanding abilities. Compared to veteran fleet commanders in the Douluo Federation, he still had shortcomings, but it was not his first engagement in star wars. The star war knowledge learned from the Douluo Federation had gradually integrated into his understanding.

More importantly, in terms of star war command, the Dragon Horse Federation was practically inept. The previous war with the Douluo Federation could be described as disastrous. Here, finding a commander better than him was probably very difficult.

The news from the Sky Dragon Assembly came two hours later, approving his movements and responses.

Lan Bo had been watching Lan Xuanyu give orders one after another, hearing the conversations with the heads of the different clans, and besides admiration, there were no other thoughts in his mind.

This outstanding young member of the Dragon Clan had indeed opened a brand new door for him. Although he was much older than Lan Xuanyu, at this moment, his heart was full of a humble desire to learn.

In such a short time, Lord Lan managed to control this fleet composed of highly rebellious races almost as if commanding his own arm. He received recognition from all facets, commanding clearly. Truly powerful beyond ordinary!

After arranging everything, Lan Xuanyu returned to the rear to continue cultivation. He temporarily handed all command to Lan Bo, or rather, he had already arranged all command measures.

Lan Bo was not the only one impressed. As a liaison officer for the Douluo Federation, Yuanen Guangjun had not cultivated since boarding the warship. She consistently coordinated various information and transmitted it back to the Douluo Federation multiple times. Given the encryption of this transmission, there was no concern about it being deciphered by the current technology of the Dragon Horse Federation.

In her eyes, Lan Xuanyu did not appear like a young individual. She had seen the most commanders, whether they were commanders of motherships, captains of guard ships or battleships. These were elite figures, yet Lan Xuanyu’s current performance was in no way inferior to those Federation elites! To know, he was still in a covert role, yet managed to address all considerations.

Her reports to the Douluo Federation also included some of Lan Xuanyu’s additional assessments. She was well aware of all possible scenarios in Lan Xuanyu’s battle plans. She reviewed them before sending them back. Now she felt that the whole battlefield seemed to be developing towards the situation Lan Xuanyu most hoped for: mutual destruction, allowing the Douluo Federation to clean up the aftermath.

This guy was almost like the mastermind behind two galaxies. And he’s only in his twenties. Frightening, truly frightening!

The frontline was in complete darkness, with no information coming through, which continued for the following two days. The fleet gradually approached the main battlefield this time, the Celestial Harmony Star.

Without directing the entire fleet to move directly near the Celestial Harmony Star, Lan Xuanyu invited the Prince of the Eight-Armed Demon God Clan and the Prince of the Mantis Clan, along with Bai Xiuxiu, to quietly leave the warship and head towards the Celestial Harmony Star on their own.

A gentle halo enveloped the four of them, concealing all their traces in space. According to the Treasure Hunting Beast, with its current illusion ability, unless within a certain range, even a God King might not be able to detect them.

Formulating the next strategy required a clear understanding of the battlefield’s situation, which was paramount. With some time remaining before the seven-day support timeline, there was no rush to act. Additionally, the state of the Celestial Harmony Star was crucial.

Feeling the marvelous energy of transformation around them, both the Prince of the Eight-Armed Demon God Clan and the Prince of the Mantis Clan were filled with a sense of shock internally. This was an energy they had never experienced before. Although Lan Xuanyu had used similar abilities in battles before, being within it now, they could more fully appreciate just how astonishing the effect of this transformation was.

Having both broken through to god rank, and belonging to commanding races, they could fly in space effortlessly. However, when it came to concealing their aura, it was something they could not achieve, especially the Prince of the Eight-Armed Demon God Clan. His inherent aura of destruction was extremely intense; after breaking through to god rank, his core destruction evolved, and his entire being brimmed with an intense and aggressive aura of destruction. Yet at this moment, he discovered that all his aura seemed contained around him, disappearing completely beyond a meter. It felt as though he were an invisible, formless speck of dust drifting through the void of space.
