Chapter 1239: The Lunya Hub Under Attack
February 2, 2024
"Alright, I agree with you," Su Yu nodded.
The construction of the Dyson Sphere can proceed gradually.
With only two million people on Blue Earth, resources are abundant. There’s no rush to build it until the population grows.
"Everyone, let’s head to the Fig Hub."
Su Yu scanned the group, his gaze finally settling on Yun Zhongmudi.
"Old Yun, why don’t you give us an update on the current situation at the Fig Hub?"
Su Yu had been in the game world for the past two years and knew little about the recent developments at the Fig Hub. The same went for Tina, Aijie, Morningstar, and the other high-level cultivators on blue Earth. Now that they were about to head there, Old Yun’s summary would be very helpful.
"Sure," Yun Zhongmudi looked at Su Yu and the others who hadn’t been to the Fig Hub. He said, "Currently, the Fig Hub is mainly focused on stabilizing the major factions.
When you last visited the Fig Hub, these factions were still in their early stages of formation, and some influential groups hadn’t even emerged yet.
But now, these factions have solidified their positions and are gradually growing stronger."
"Okay, which factions are the main ones?" Su Yu asked.
Yun Zhongmudi thought for a moment and replied, "The top three are still the Fig Guard, the Lemo Mercenary Group, and the Fig Central Bank, just as they were when you left.
However, other factions have undergone significant changes due to alliances and power shifts. For example, the 'Grendon Botanical Association' has risen rapidly, recruiting ten million members in just 100 days, surpassing the 'Fig Psionic Development Corporation' to become the fourth-largest faction in the Fig Hub."
Yun Zhongmudi then gave a detailed overview of the major factions in the Fig Hub, including the top ten and the top three: the Fig Guard, the Lemo Mercenary Group, and the Fig Central Bank. These three factions were now vastly different from what they were two years ago.
They had attracted a massive influx of talent and refined their organizational structures, making them more efficient and combat-ready. If two years ago they were like children playing pretend, now they were beginning to resemble major interstellar factions.
...
After summarizing the major factions, Yun Zhongmudi began to describe the recent situation at the Fig Hub: "Mr. Ke, after you left, the Fig Hub remained peaceful for about a year and a half.
This period of calm was largely due to the 'Recovery Phase' and the effective work of the Public Security Department, which improved the hub’s security.
However, 15 months ago—using blue Earth’s time—the security situation in the Fig Hub took a sharp turn for the worse. It’s even more chaotic now than when you first arrived!"
"Indeed!"
"Now the Fig Hub is getting more and more chaotic."
"While the chaos does offer more opportunities for us to benefit, the pressure is immense!"
"Even with the Blue Whale, it’s tough to handle this pressure."
Hearing Yun Zhongmudi’s words, the surrounding group nodded in agreement. They had all been under significant pressure due to the deteriorating security in the Fig Hub.
"What happened?" Su Yu asked urgently.
"Here’s what happened, Mr. Ke," Yun Zhongmudi explained. "Fifteen months ago, the Lunya Hub, which is the closest hub to the Fig Hub—about 23,000 light-years away—was suddenly attacked by a rebel organization!"
Fifteen months ago, on the Blue Star, the Lunya Hub was suddenly attacked by a large fleet of unknown origin!
The attack was completely unexpected.
The early warning systems Lunya had set up outside the star system failed to activate, being destroyed before they could even send an alert.
It wasn't until the attackers' fleet entered the star system, just 2,300 light-seconds away from the habitable zone, that the Lunya Guard discovered the enemy's presence.
By then, it was already too late.
The enemy's warships wreaked havoc across hundreds of star regions, only stopping when the Lunya Guard launched a counterattack several hours later.
Yun Zhongmudi said solemnly, "After analysis, it was determined that the attack was orchestrated by rebel organizations.
The main forces were a combined fleet from the 'Glory Rebels' and the 'Spark Preservers,' two major rebel groups.
The 'Dark Energy Rebels' also participated, though their contribution was minimal, with only about 2,000 large warships and around 80 planetary-level entities. They were more like token participants.
Additionally, there was no sign of the 'Fate Defiers' or the 'Wings of Freedom' rebel organizations. They likely did not participate in the attack."
"Rebel organizations?" Su Yu frowned slightly.
He had dealt with the Dark Energy Rebels before and had a healthy fear of these fanatical rebel groups.
The only silver lining was that the attack was on Lunya, not the Fig Hub. If it had been the latter, even with the AI Blue Whale's support, his future plans would have needed significant adjustments.
"Wait a moment!" Su Yu's frown deepened as he realized something.
"Old Yun," he said, fixing his gaze on Yun Zhongmudi, "Is the Crystal Blue Commonwealth backing the rebel organizations?"
This was a serious question.
If it was just the rebel organizations causing trouble, that was one thing. But if the Crystal Blue Commonwealth was involved, the situation would be much more dire.
"Unfortunately, yes," Yun Zhongmudi nodded gravely.
He turned to Fujiwara Chika. "Prime Minister Fujiwara is the most knowledgeable about this. Let her explain."
Fujiwara Chika had a unique position; she was the only one present who had been to the Lunya battlefield.
With her powerful healing abilities, Fujiwara Chika joined the Fig Guard two years ago as a military healer and was dispatched to the Lunya Hub during the attack.
Due to her exceptional strength and numerous contributions on the Lunya battlefield, she had been promoted several times and was now part of the central command. Therefore, she was the best person to provide the details.
Fujiwara Chika did not hesitate.
She stepped forward and said, "Yes, Commander, the rebel organizations do indeed have the support of the Crystal Blue Commonwealth.
Because of the Crystal Blue Commonwealth's backing, Lunya's early warning systems were completely unprepared and were easily penetrated.
It is also due to their support that the fragmented 'Spark Preservers' could be mobilized and coordinated with other rebel organizations.
Without that support, they would never have had the audacity to attack a hub planet."
"Hmm... that makes sense," Su Yu stroked his chin in agreement.
Fujiwara Chika was right. Without the Crystal Blue Commonwealth's support, the 'Spark Preservers' would never have been able to unite their forces.
The 'Spark Preservers' had been so brutally suppressed by the Holy Hymn that it would take them decades, if not centuries, to recover and overcome their fear.
"It seems the Crystal Blue Commonwealth's offensive is indeed formidable!" Su Yu sighed. "They're already reaching into the Milky Way?"
