Shadows of the Deep Space-Chapter 1515 - 507: Saint Joex Star (Part 5)

Star Destroyer Grey Angel central control room.

Long Ying reported to Long Chen.

"Grandpa, the enemy has been completely annihilated!"

"Very good, continue forward."

Long Chen showed no intention of cleaning up afterwards.

"Understood!"

Long Ying nodded in response.

"Indeed, the Grey Angel is really strong!"

Su Ming remarked with great admiration.

Just one shot directly took out a Level 5 Battleship, a round of firepower coverage cleared the field, this firepower is truly remarkable.

"It’s nothing, just a small trial of strength."

Long Chen smiled and said to Su Ming.

"Mm!"

Su Ming nodded.

....

Half a day later.

The Star Destroyer Grey Angel led the fleet into the Luoying Star Sea, speeding towards the Saint Joex Star.

Su Ming and Long Chen stood at the viewing platform, gazing at the distant starry sky, then he saw an awe-inspiring sight.

In the distance, a seemingly endless meteorite belt stretched across the void.

"So many meteorites?"

Su Ming spoke with surprise.

"Spectacular, isn’t it? These were all artificially guided here."

Long Chen said with a smile.

"Artificial? Such an impressive feat?"

"Yes, Saint Joex laid a meteor belt here and then constructed a Meteorite Defense Belt. Don’t be fooled by the ordinary appearance of these meteor belts; inside are various defense weapons, including some interplanetary strategic weapons!"

"Truly extravagant."

Su Ming praised.

"There’s a saying circulating in Saint Joex: anything that can be bought with money isn’t truly precious, and anything that can be solved with money isn’t really a problem either!"

Long Chen said with a chuckle.

"Big words, but they do have the means for it."

Su Ming replied with a smile.

At this moment, Long Ying approached, speaking respectfully.

"Grandpa, it’s about time, we should switch ships!"

"Mm."

Long Chen nodded slightly.

"Switch ships? Aren’t we boarding the Grey Angel to go inside?"

Su Ming was slightly taken aback and asked.

"No, we’re boarding a merchant ship. There’s a rule in Saint Joex prohibiting large fleets from entering to prevent threats to their safety. That’s just one reason; the main one is that if the Grey Angel docks and something unexpected happens, it would be troublesome. It’s safer to leave the ship outside the starry sky, and if any issues arise, it can immediately enter combat mode. Also, the recent situation is unstable; it’s better to act cautiously."

Long Chen briefly explained to Su Ming.

"Mm, we’re boarding a merchant ship, so sneaking into Saint Joex won’t be dangerous, right?"

Su Ming asked with some concern.

"Don’t worry, there won’t be any danger! Saint Joex is still very safe, and we’re heading to our own territory. I have both assets and influence in Saint Joex."

"Oh, I see."

"Moreover, your Su Family also has influence and territory in Saint Joex."

Long Chen reached out and patted Su Ming’s shoulder with a smile.

"Seems that’s the case."

Su Ming replied with a wry smile.

"Enough talk of this, let’s go and switch to the merchant ship. It’s been so many years since I’ve been to Saint Joex."

Long Chen said in a particularly good mood.

"Mm."

Su Ming nodded.

Long Chen then led Su Ming and Long Ying, along with a group of trusted aides, toward the mobile platform.

Amongst the starry sky.

An inconspicuous Level 4 Transport Ship approached the Grey Angel.

Click!

The two ships successfully docked.

Long Chen led Su Ming and the others aboard the transport ship, heading to the observation deck.

The transport ship disconnected, heading toward the Meteorite Defense Belt.

Soon, Su Ming and the others arrived at the observation deck.

Through the optical imaging device, they saw the approaching meteorite belt more clearly.

Just then, from within the meteorites emerged one Gun Knight and two Flame Knights, three mechas leading the transport ship inside the meteorite belt.

Su Ming watched the meteorites passing by; from the naked eye alone, one couldn’t tell what’s special about these meteorites.

Not long after, the transport ship passed through the meteorite belt, and immediately they beheld an awe-inspiring sight.

In the vast star sea floated polygonal mechanical fortresses, umbrella-shaped large space-based weapons, and countless fleets and patrol mechas, forming a giant defense line. Behind the line hovered a shell-shaped fortress, thousands of kilometers in diameter, its entire surface densely packed with countless gun barrels and launch ports.

"What’s this?"

Su Ming frowned, asking.

"The second line of defense!"

Long Chen responded with a smile.

"Pretty extravagant. This defense lineup is no worse than the Black Flame Star!"

Su Ming remarked with a sense of awe.

"If you purely compare the quantity and quality of weapons, the Black Flame Star Defense Line falls a bit short."

Long Chen laughed.

Just then, a small ship flew over, docking with the transport ship. Several inspectors boarded, verifying travel documents and checking the cargo.

However, the inspection soon passed, and the transport ship smoothly traversed the defense line, continuing onward.

As time ticked by.

Soon the transport ship approached near Saint Joex, and Su Ming gazed into the distance.

He saw a disc-shaped planet appearing in his view, the entire planet specially modified, its upper half covered by a special semi-spherical transparent crystal. Inside the center seemed to float a top-shaped fountain, surrounded by countless buildings, stretches of greenery, winding sky tracks; the top-shaped skirt had waterfalls flowing continuously, the entire planet extremely prosperous and beautiful.

"So this is Saint Joex? It resembles Heavenly Realm City." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Su Ming remarked with a sense of awe.
