Douluo Dalu 4: Ultimate Fighting

TL: GoldenLung

As he was speaking, he approached Bai Xiuxiu, but she pushed him away by the face.

"You're dreaming. Don't be silly, listen to me." Bai Xiuxiu grabbed Lan Xuanyu's hands.

She lifted her head and stared intensely at Lan Xuanyu's eyes. "War is about to begin, and we are just a small, insignificant part of the army. I know your personality, and in battle, you always prefer to use unconventional tactics to achieve maximum gains. That's your way of fighting, and I support you. However, when making any decisions, you must always be mindful of safety, just like when you reminded everyone. I want to tell you that wherever you go on future missions, I'll be there with you. If you encounter danger, it means I'm in danger too. Therefore, you must protect me and, more importantly, protect yourself. I don't care about military merits; I only want you to be safe and sound. War is an opportunity for soldiers, but it's also the most brutal."

Watching as Bai Xiuxiu's eyes gradually turned slightly red, Lan Xuanyu nodded seriously and said, "I understand. Xiuxiu, don't worry, I will never take risks lightly. Teacher Nana's incident has taught me a valuable lesson."

As he spoke, he pulled Bai Xiuxiu into his arms, tightly embracing her delicate body.

Bai Xiuxiu pressed her cheek against his shoulder and said, "I don't care about the outcome of the war, I only care that after the war, everyone is still here. To be honest, if there was a choice, I really wouldn't want there to be a war."

The two of them embraced each other, silently feeling each other's heartbeat and warmth.

No matter how many people do not want war to happen, and how many people yearn to make a name for themselves in the war, war would still come!

The Seventh Fleet, like an awakened dragon, lit up the main thrusters of all the warships and began to launch.

Just as expected by Lan Xuanyu, the direction of the Seventh Fleet's advance was towards one of the two main stars of the Dragon Horse Galaxy, the Celestial Steed Star. It would take only five days to reach Celestial Steed Star from their current position, with full-speed flight and wormhole jumps.

At this point, Lan Xuanyu and his seven teammates were already in the command center. Of course, they only had the right to observe. At the same time, they could not leave the command center unless ordered by Yan Xinghe, in order to protect military secrets.

Through the huge 270-degree porthole, they could clearly see the fleet flying in space. Four Dragon King-class escort ships surrounded the mothership, with a large number of other warships surrounding them.

"We are about to make the first jump. Everyone, take your positions and prepare for the jump. Activate the shields at 45%." Yan Xinghe sat in the main seat, constantly giving out orders.

By observing, Lan Xuanyu understood that the mission of a Dragon King-class escort was much more than he had imagined. A space fleet was arranged in this way. The highest level was the flagship, but in reality, the flagship only oversaw the deployment of four Dragon King-class escorts and issued missions specifically for the four escorts. Each Dragon King-class escort was in charge of three subordinated War God-class warships.

Each warship also oversaw its own Meteor-class assault ships and Comet-class reconnaissance ships, forming a pyramid-like system. Therefore, Dragon Three not only had to manage itself but also had to oversee the three warships below it. These three warships were on the periphery of Dragon Three, forming a semi-circular encirclement with lower-level warships guarding the outside. In the entire fleet of warships, the closer a warship was to the core, the more powerful it was.

When the first time the wormhole jump was initiated, Lan Xuanyu deeply felt the power of this large warship.

The protective shield was activated, and the entire process of the wormhole jump was surprisingly smooth, without even a slight vibration. It was no different from normal flight.

Although the protective shield of the Dragon King-class escort was only activated to forty-five percent, it not only protected itself but also included a large number of small-scale warships and even warships around it, all jumping together through the wormhole.

As for the mothership, it released an even larger protective shield, almost protecting the entire fleet within it. The Seventh Fleet was truly a unified whole.

Looking at everything outside the porthole, Lan Xuanyu and the other six people all felt the same feeling in their hearts, magnificent!

Indeed, it was the strongest combat power of the Douluo Federation!

Lan Xuanyu and his team could only rest within the command center, meditating and recuperating in their seats. During the war, there was no real food to eat, and everyone had to consume high-energy nutrient paste, including Yan Xinghe, who was the captain. This was the rule of the Space Fleet, even the fleet commander could only eat nutrient paste during the war. This was because nutrient paste could replenish the body's nutrients in the shortest amount of time without wasting time.

Three days later, after the fourth wormhole jump, the speed of the Seventh Fleet suddenly began to slow down.

Through Yan Xinghe's orders and observation, Lan Xuanyu discovered that all the warships below Meteor class, including transport ships, in the Seventh Fleet had all moved to the rear of the fleet. The entire fleet began to change formation.

Four Dragon King-class escort ships lined up in a row, with the mother ship flying out from the center at the forefront. Twelve warships followed behind the Dragon King-class escorts. The three most powerful warships formed a triangular formation and flew forward, while all the small warships and transport ships flew behind.

"Beep beep beep", the harsh alarm sounded, and the lights in the command center became brighter. On one side of the large screen, the radar continued to zoom in and explore.

Yan Xinghe stood up and said in a deep voice, "We are about to enter combat zone. All units, prepare for battle."

Lan Xuanyu also saw the enemy through the large screen. They were bright dots, particularly clear in space.

The Dragon Horse Galaxy had obviously already detected the Seventh Fleet's advance and, of course, they could not let the battlefield be near the Celestial Steed Planet. Therefore, they had deployed their formation here, two days' journey away from the Celestial Steed Planet, and were ready to meet the enemy.

The distance between the two sides gradually closed, and Yan Xinghe, the commander of the Dragon Three, looked calm and not nervous at all. He turned around and waved to Lan Xuanyu, saying, "Xuanyu, come here."

Lan Xuanyu quickly stood up and came to Yan Xinghe's side. In the command center, the senior officers were all staff officers, and other senior officers were at their own posts and not on this side of the command center.

Yan Xinghe said in a deep voice, "Zoom in on the screen."

On the large screen, the image was enlarged, presenting the shape of warships from the Dragon Horse Galaxy.

Yan Xinghe said to Lan Xuanyu, "Although the Dragon Horse galaxy is working hard to catch up in terms of warship technology, there is still a big gap between them and us. This is why we have absolute confidence in being able to crush them on the front battlefield. Even if there is a 30% chance of them winning on the front battlefield, they will not let us blockade the airspace of the Federation, because they certainly have much more resources. If they can hold us off on the front battlefield for a period of time, they may be able to produce more warships. In fact, we have been conducting some attrition warfare over the years to ensure that the number and power of warships in the Dragon Horse galaxy are not enough to pose a threat to us. You see, the warships of the Dragon Horse galaxy are like a ragtag army."

At this moment, Lan Xuanyu was watching the screen for the first time, which showed warships of alien technology.

Indeed, as Yan Xinghe had said, the warships of the Dragon Horse galaxy were really like a motley crew. This was mainly due to the significant variation in the individual ships.

Firstly, Lan Xuanyu saw a warship that looked a bit like a fish. From the display of the radar data, the length of this warship was approximately three hundred meters, and its surface was covered with brown scales that emitted a halo of protective energy. There were three pairs of wings open on the top, and behind the wings, there was a jet of light.
