Sky-cracking Rider

Inside the command center, the room was silent for a dozen seconds before bursting into noise again.

"These guys..."

Heseman Brown was about to lose his temper at the scene, but Chen Fei stopped him, pointed at himself, and said, "You're mistaken. One, we're busy now; two, no one disagrees. Here, I'm the boss, what I say goes!"

"Huh? Is that so?"

The S-Class Space Ability User looked bewildered, unable to discern any clues.

Someone shouted, "There are thirty people trapped in Zone A who need rescue. The location is *****, Mr. Brown, can you help?"

The red and blue giant fireballs from Habulav were incredibly destructive. Whether it was buildings or roads, it was hard to remain intact, making it difficult for vehicles to pass smoothly. Even if people knew there was a refuge in Zone C, it was hard to get there quickly.

Especially the two sides in internal conflict, almost blinded by rage, worsened the situation further.

"Go!"

Chen Fei patted Heseman Brown on the shoulder and then said loudly, "We now have 48 small transport airships at our disposal, with a rated capacity of 200 people each!"

The next second, a cheer erupted inside the entire command center.

"Zone D needs 6 airships!"

"The public spaceport needs 11 airships!"

"..."

Requests for small transport airships rose one after another.

Relying on a single S-Class Space Ability User was obviously a drop in the ocean in the fiery Habulav. The 11th Training Hall in Zone C could only ask refugees to find their own way there, with the Space Ability User only assisting those who couldn't move at all.

The arrival of 48 small transport airships immediately alleviated the urgent situation.

"'Rookie', 'Rookie', you're finally here, quickly, give me these supplies, my reserves aren't enough at all!"

Miyoshi Monk, with his disheveled robe, rushed over holding a stack of A4 papers. Although he followed Chen Fei's instructions and brought plenty of supplies to the 11th Training Hall, the number of refugees surged to over ten thousand, making food and water reserves completely insufficient. There were also many injured people, and even ability users with healing skills couldn't handle so many at once.

Chen Fei's arrival made the monk overjoyed. The supplies stored in the "Spatial Branding" could support not just ten thousand people, but even a million.

"I see the training hall seems almost full."

Chen Fei casually took the list handed over by Miyoshi Xuesen.

"No choice, there are too many people. We thought the training hall's space was enough, but now, all the halls are insufficient."

Miyoshi Xuesen showed a bitter expression, not expecting Habulav's situation to collapse to such an extent, and a large-scale "Mutant flood" had erupted outside the city.

Those fighting to the death were a minority in Habulav, but they caused trouble for most people. Most of those living and working here were logistics personnel, with combat personnel being less than half.

Chen Fei raised a finger, shook it, and said, "There's a solution: establish a 'Stargate' and send them to Socotra Island, which can accommodate 300,000 to 500,000 people."

The Socotra Island camp was designed for 50,000, but being on the equator, it's possible to sleep outdoors with blankets or mats. With some time and materials, shelter issues could be easily resolved. As a temporary camp, there's absolutely no problem.

The Life Space in the "Boundary Pearl" could also be an option, but Chen Fei didn't trust the people here. The people of Habulav and refugees from elsewhere were vastly different, fearing they might uncover more secrets if mixed together.

"'Stargate', ah! I completely forgot!"

Bearing such a huge survival pressure, Miyoshi Monk smacked his bald head, annoyed at not thinking of using a "Stargate" to transfer so many people.

Although "Stargate" positioning was troublesome, the positioning at Socotra Island at the mouth of Aden Bay was ready. Move and there's life, relocate to Socotra Island, and both the internal chaos in the city and the "Mutant flood" outside would no longer be a concern.

"The things you need are available on Socotra Island, including the operating room, uh?"

Chen Fei suddenly furrowed his brows.

"What's wrong?" Noticing Chen Fei's sudden change in expression while talking to him, Miyoshi Xuesen thought something bad had happened.

"The First Airship Combat Cluster from Socotra Island was intercepted in the airspace near Leima."

The AI "Adam" suddenly reported that a sovereign airship fleet intercepted the patrolling First Airship Combat Cluster.

The opposing airships were four times that of the First Airship Combat Cluster, marking a proper interception rather than a coincidental blockage. They even sent a warning requiring a change in route.

Miyoshi Xuesen was shocked, "Who intercepted? What's their intention?"

The First Airship Combat Cluster, flying from Socotra Island to the Yangzhou Continent, was Habulav's most important reinforcement. Chen Fei's suggestion included holding out until assistance arrived, of which the First Airship Combat Cluster was crucial. Who knows when airship combat groups from other sovereignties would arrive?

It's better to rely on oneself, and the monk trusted the combat forces under Chen Fei's command the most.

"I don't know. The flight trajectory sent ends at the High Barrier Peninsula. From their behavior, it seems like they're intending to swallow my First Airship Combat Cluster."

The more Chen Fei thought about it, the more likely it seemed. After all, getting an airship combat group for free was like hitting the jackpot.

The control of the First Combat Cluster was under the AI "Adam", and the "Sagali" civilization had no way against "Adam". Mental shocks wouldn't affect a digital AI, whereas the Blue Star Civilization, having once crushed "Adam's" rebellion, had deep insights into it.

Chen Fei and "Adam's" advantage over the "Sagali" civilization was a disadvantage against fellow Blue Star Civilization members.

"How dare they!!!"

Miyoshi Xuesen was almost stunned. In such a critical moment, cutting off the supply line and dragging them back, don't they care about the survival of everyone in Habulav and even the entire Yangzhou Continent?

The "Mutant flood" isn't a joke; if it can't be quickly contained, it would easily spread to the entire Yangzhou Continent, and Blue Star Humans would lose a massive territory.

"The First Airship Combat Cluster might not hold out for long. 'Adam' has already started limiting communication modes."

Upon realizing that the High Barrier Peninsula intended to act against the First Airship Combat Cluster, Chen Fei immediately ordered AI "Adam" to shut off radio communications, switching to directional laser communication.

Otherwise, with technical invasion, the airship cluster could lose control in no time, and Chen Fei would be helpless about it. Damn, 'Adam' being an old antique, its source code had long been thoroughly researched.

"We must immediately contact the higher-ups of the Global United Defense Committee, sigh!"

But the thought of Habulav's current situation made Miyoshi Xuesen sigh uncontrollably.

Beset by internal and external issues, who would have the time to deal with them, and there's more doubt than assistance.
