Chapter 041: The Attacking Enemy
Thinking that such an event would happen, not long after leaving the Lighthouse Star, Su Mu had to ask Nana to turn around and return to the Lighthouse Star, obviously, he had to mobilize all his resources and prepare for the battle, and considering that the time left for him was completely insufficient, he could only rescue, not prevent.

On the spaceship, he first said to Nana seriously: "It seems that this war is inevitable, so Nana, on your side, immediately contact the person in charge of the Dongliugu Company in Farang to coordinate the procurement of individual weapons, shipborne weapons, and war materials, don't worry about the price, we are very rich, so that we can quickly arm an armed spaceship with perfect space warfare capabilities." β
"Let's say, I can't get support from the King and the Pioneer Guild, and I guess we'll have to fight alone." Su Mu added.
Nana hesitated: "Really, is it possible to do that?" β
"Yes... If from the perspective of interests, there is only a certain probability of war, and the labor expedition to maintain the safety of remote frontiers costs money, and many times it is not a big problem to simply let the enemy plunder and destroy, and maybe the price paid is less, of course, I believe that San Calan is special and will not necessarily be treated like this. β
Su Mu comforted, "Besides, why do we have to put hope in the hands of others? Now that we are veteran pioneers, think about how many trials we have experienced in the past, are these distant enemies really so terrible? β
Su Mu thought that if the situation deteriorated to the extreme, he would have to use the disgusting tactics developed by the few perverted players in his memory to deal with his enemies, in this way, how to say it, in the end, it was unmistakable that he would win, but there was some trouble, and he would not consider this method first.
"Alright!" Nana saw that Su Mu's tone was a little heavy, she was not afraid of the challenge, and took a breath, "That, I don't want to fail either, is the enemy more powerful than the star thieves of the Barubas Kingdom that I encountered on the side of the Lonely Island Star and the Seven Seas Commercial Federation?" β
"I'm convinced that we're not going to fail here!" The girl's eyes reflected an incomparably bright light, so much so that Su Mu believed that they might not lose.
Then, as soon as he returned to the Lighthouse Star, Su Mu immediately received a warning that a large number of strange spaceships had broken in near the Far Star Gate, asking him to confirm that the war had already existed.
He hurriedly separated from Nana, and contacted Baron Asturias first, and heard the baron reply to himself: "Su, I probably know what you said, the main problem at present is that Blanco's progress in the front is slow, causing the court to currently debate the merits and demerits of Blanco, and a group of nobles and big businessmen are involved, thinking that Blanco is not a suitable fleet commander, and I am afraid it will be difficult to help you before reaching a conclusion." β
"Or that if they help you, it means that the Pioneer will be safe and sound, and they will not be able to put the blame for the destruction of the Pioneer on Blanco's head and take the lead."
"And what do you think, Lord Baron?" Su Mu asked again.
"Well... Even in the best of heaven, there will still be darkness. For such a thing, as a nobleman, I really can't look past it! I really want to pilot the spaceship on the planet and rush to support you right away! β
"Your Excellency, you are truly a model of virtue, and you are truly admired! Mertura is only a 6-day voyage away from the Lighthouse, so it's easy to get to St. Calan for support. β
"Well, but you know I'm old, that's... My daughters are interested, but I'm worried about them, if you're thatβ" Asturias said slowly.
Belch... Don't count on Baron Asturias here yet, Su Mu decided, "Lord Baron, it seems that the situation is indeed very bad, in that case, let me contact Baron Araunor you introduced again, and see what the court has to say, thank you very much for your selfless help." β
"Wait!" Asturias wanted to say something, but he didn't expect Su Mu to cut off the communication, oh my God, he sighed, how can he say that half of the property on the planet of St. Calan belongs to him, is he really not worried about anything? He had other plans to say.
Su Mu visited the 67th area of the Lighthouse Star City Agglomeration, a manor in the forest, where Arauno, a court scientist and pioneer advisor, lived.
This is another big man, as a small country, it is already very powerful at the level of Baron Faron, there are no viscounts above, only a few counts, no dukes, and the highest is King Alfonso.
"Sir Su, when I heard this name, it reminded me of the two discoveries you found a few years ago, the Sea Marsh Beast Fossil and the Night King's Treasure, both of which impressed me deeply."
Baron Arauno is almost 100 years old, and thanks to the successful genetic optimization, he still maintains a clear mind and sharp eyes despite his gray hair and wrinkled face, and moves around as a close attendant of the king.
Su Mu said that his intention was mainly to inquire about the invasion of the Saint-Calan frontier through Baron Arauno, and what the king thinks at present.
Baron Arauno had a very good impression of Su Mu, he himself was not a person in power, he rarely made final decisions, and more gave advice to the king, only telling Su Mu some of the current chaos in the court, saying that he could not do anything.
Judging from the situation in the palace, on the one hand, there are people who oppose this rescue operation, if a fleet of 5 100-meter spaceships is sent to fight, it will cost at least 20 billion, and once the enemy has achieved his goal and escaped, they will be in vain; On the other hand, there are many people who think that Blanco should solve the problem, and his power over there is so strong that he can't even handle such a small matter? He actually wants the kingdom to help him wipe his ass? As a result, the rescue plan of the pioneer site was not able to be carried out in the end.
"Lord Baron, your information has helped me a lot." Su Mu had no choice but to say so.
"Don't thank me." Arauno said slowly: "I personally don't want to see these things, but the reality needs you to find a way to solve it yourself, I don't think you necessarily have to use the way of war, with some moderation, such as paying a ransom in exchange for peace, I don't think you have done anything wrong." β
Su Mu looked down and suddenly saw a message sent to him by Nana, who was also on the other side of the lighthouse star, it turned out that because of their identity, it was not convenient for them to buy some standard weapons, so he raised his head: "I understand, but I still insist that our enemy will not give me such a chance, so I still plan to do my best to fight, but I don't know if Lord Baron can solve the problem of weapons and equipment, the kingdom is more strict about these controls." β
After listening to this, Arauno pondered for a while: "If you expect me to help solve this, I can help you, but in terms of price, it can't be like the exploration fleet without giving discounts, and if you want to come to Sir Su's net worth, it is estimated that you can't buy much." β
"No matter what, I'll do my best!" Su Mu replied.
"I'm glad you have this idea, and I believe that your path as a trailblazer will not stop here." Baron Arauno finished speaking with great appreciation, and hurriedly operated to complete an introduction email, so that Su Mu would hand it over to Nana, and he could freely buy the weapons and equipment they wanted.
