Chapter 546: The Song Family's Full Mobilization
Chapter 546: The Song Family's Full Mobilization
Hearing this news was indeed shocking, but Song Chi's expression remained unchanged.
After a moment of silence, he asked, "Do we know the specific time?"
Bai Mei's voice remained cold, but she provided an approximate answer.
"Within a hundred years, I suppose!"
A hundred years... Hearing this response, Song Chi didn't ask further questions. The two of them quietly waited.
From beginning to end, Song Chi never doubted the authenticity of Bai Mei's words. Instead, his heart tightened, and he immediately began considering what preparations he and his family needed to make.
A full-scale war with the Eight-Armed Serpent Demon Civilization was no small matter. Compared to the previous expansion wars in the Heavenly Basin Galaxy Cluster, this was like a child's play. The Eight-Armed Serpent Demon Civilization controlled the entire Eight-Armed Serpent Demon Galaxy Cluster, with territories spanning nearly ten billion light-years. A war of this magnitude was at the pinnacle in terms of scale, intensity, and danger. Whether they could prepare in advance would make a huge difference.
With this in mind, Song Chi's thoughts turned, and he quickly contacted a Tribulation Star Tribe member who had stayed on the Dragon Spine Continent through mental transmission.
...
Dragon Spine Continent, Green Moon Estate.
Song Chao watched as a Fourth-Rank Tribulation Star Tribe member emerged from his son's courtyard and approached him. He understood that Song Chi had something important to discuss.
Soon, the Fourth-Rank Tribulation Star Tribe member spoke in the Star Sea Common Language.
After listening, Song Chao's expression turned solemn.
According to the Fourth-Rank Tribulation Star Tribe member, the matter was of great importance and required a visit to the Ancestral Hall to seek the advice of the elders.
Song Chao, understanding the gravity of the situation, wasted no time and immediately summoned his own warship.
The Azure Sky was still only a cruiser, although Song Chi had already used resources to upgrade his parents' Flame Seeds to the Orange level. However, Song Chao and Chen Lixia had not yet attempted to challenge the Deer Hunt Ship.
After more than two hundred years, both the Azure Sky and the Dragonfly had reached the limits of a cruiser. The two had decided to attempt the warship promotion mission in the near future.
Once the Fourth-Rank Tribulation Star Tribe member boarded the ship, the Azure Sky soared into the sky.
Dragon Spine God Mountain, Dragon Whale Hall.
Upon learning that Song Chi had signaled, Song Wujiang didn't hesitate and immediately activated the chaos fog ability of the Dragon Whale Hall.
A few minutes later, Song Wujiang's face turned extremely serious.
"How credible is this information?"
"It's almost certain!"
After receiving the confirmation from the Fourth-Rank Tribulation Star Tribe member, Song Wujiang's deep eyes seemed to have a rapidly flowing light.
After a long while, he nodded slightly.
"I understand the situation. Since this is the case, the family needs to prepare many things in advance. A hundred years is still manageable, and it's enough time for us to do a lot."
"Also, since you have something urgent to attend to, go ahead and focus on it. Don't worry about the family matters here!"
"Okay!"
...
On the Civilization Great Wall, after informing the elders of the news, Song Chi felt slightly relieved. Although this matter caught them off guard, there was still a hundred years to prepare, so it wasn't entirely bad news.
The most crucial point was that as long as the Song family could make sufficient preparations, they might gain greater benefits in the subsequent grand civilizational war.
In a war between two top-tier advanced civilizations, even a tiny fraction of the benefits would be enough for the Song family to reap endless advantages. At the very least, it could help the Song family completely make up for their lack of foundation and become a truly immortal aristocratic family.
With some boldness, it might even be possible to accumulate the foundation needed to challenge the immortal giant powers in the future.
As his thoughts wandered, a strong spatial fluctuation suddenly came from behind. Turning around, the two of them soon saw a steel behemoth appearing from the spatial vortex channel.
It was the escort warship that had come to pick up Song Chi and Bai Mei, a Planet Destroyer from the North Star Main Hall.
Pursue Star Chase Moon!
"Bai Mei, Thunder Awaken, come aboard!"
Without any delay, the cabin door of the Pursue Star Chase Moon opened as soon as it burst out of the spatial vortex. At the same time, a faint summoning voice reached Song Chi and Bai Mei's ears.
Confirming that it was indeed the escort warship from the Main Hall, Song Chi and Bai Mei's shadow energy surged, and their Fifth-Rank shadow energy enveloped them as they rose into the air, quickly boarding the Planet Destroyer hovering overhead.
The sound of the cabin door closing behind them was followed by another spatial fluctuation.
Before Song Chi could think further, a soft female voice sounded from the side.
"The second leap migration is about to begin. Next, we're heading to the Heaven Star, please follow me."
Cat Girl.
A Cat Girl with a life level as high as Sixth Rank.
Song Chi's expression remained unchanged as he followed the Cat Girl, who was clearly a maid on the North Star Main Hall's Planet Destroyer, to a window seat in the engine room. Bai Mei also sat down next to him.
He wasn't surprised that the Pursue Star Chase Moon was heading to the Heaven Star. With over two hundred members under the North Star Seven Towers, it wasn't unusual for members from other Star Towers to receive missions during this time.
Song Chi was more interested in the other few individuals sitting behind him. Judging from their attire, they were clearly people of high status.
Members from other Star Towers? Or perhaps the Pursue Star Chase Moon captain's juniors?
As if sensing Song Chi and Bai Mei's thoughts, the Sixth-Rank Cat Girl, who hadn't left yet, explained, "The people behind are also members of the North Star Seven Towers. They have also received missions this time."
Song Chi thanked her with a nod but didn't pay further attention.
Under the influence of the Flame Ship Carrying Certificate on the Pursue Star Chase Moon, everyone's shadow energy was sealed, making it difficult to discern their situation.
...
Dragon Spine Continent, Dragon Whale Ancestral Hall.
As Song Wujiang's thoughts shifted, the hall above began to emit a series of impressive energy fluctuations.
However, not all seats emitted energy fluctuations; only a few of them did.
Within a few seconds, several projections appeared above the hall.
Including Song Wujiang, the final number of people present was seven.
Song Wujiang, Song Shiyuan, Song Xingru, Song Dingbang, Song Tianhao, Song Tian Shu, and Song Xuancang.
Except for Song Chi, all the core members of the Song family's ancestral lineage on the Dragon Spine Continent had gathered.
Being summoned suddenly, even without knowing what had happened, the sight of this lineup made Song Shiyuan and the others realize that it must be a matter of great importance.
However, before they could speak, Song Xingru asked the question on her mind.
"Why isn't Song Chi here? I thought he could travel between the Dragon Spine Continent and the Crimson Star Continent at any time?"
Song Wujiang replied truthfully, "Song Chi is currently busy, but this summons for your projections is also related to him."
"According to the information Song Chi obtained from the Radiant Star Tower, our Flame Human Civilization is preparing..."
After explaining the situation in detail, Song Wujiang paused, not rushing to ask for their opinions. Instead, he wanted to give them time to digest this shocking news.
"Are we really going to be at war with the Eight-Armed Serpent Demon Civilization within a hundred years? Are you sure there's no mistake on Song Chi's end?"
"If that's the case, then Elder Song Wujiang, you must advance your attempt to become a Planet Destroyer Fleet Commander ahead of schedule. In a war that affects an entire civilization, the difference between having a Planet Destroyer Fleet Commander or not is enormous!"
"Yes, and we should also quickly enhance the strength of our clan members. Only by doing so can we protect ourselves as much as possible in the upcoming war and even take advantage of it to amass a war fortune."
...
As soon as Song Wujiang's words fell, the hall quickly filled with the murmurs of the crowd.
Although their opinions varied, one point was unanimously agreed upon.
Everyone believed that Elder Song Wujiang should try his best to have the Sea Tamer Dragon Soaring attempt to become a Planet Destroyer before the war begins.
There was no dispute about this.
The reason was simple.
Where did the Flame Torch Civilization get its name from?
The Flame Seed, Flame Ship, Flame Torch Captain, Flame Network... From the very beginning, the Flame Source and the Flame Ship were the foundation of the Flame Torch Civilization, and the Flame Ship has always been its greatest military deterrent.
Although the Song family possesses a Tri-Eye Clan Sovereign Flagship, seemingly possessing Overlord Power, everyone in the family knows that this power is not recognized within the Flame Torch Civilization. It is at least weaker than a Planet Destroyer of the same rank, and not by a small margin.
The problem lies here. Once you are weaker than others, you lose your voice and influence. Losing your voice in a war that affects two river system clusters is a serious consequence.
In short, a force without a true Planet Destroyer Fleet Commander is nine times out of ten doomed to become cannon fodder in the subsequent civil war.
A full-scale war between two top-tier advanced civilizations, with battle lines stretching over ten billion light-years, will inevitably lead to countless deaths.
Who will fill this void? Those immortal aristocratic families that have been passed down for thousands or even tens of thousands of years?
Thinking that way is too naive.
After a long discussion, Song Wujiang spoke again.
"It seems everyone is in agreement. In that case, it's settled. For the next hundred years, no... within fifty years, we will focus all our efforts on assisting the Sea Tamer Dragon Soaring in becoming a Planet Destroyer. Only then will we have some time left to attempt the Seventh Rank Guidance Technique. Otherwise, a half-baked Planet Destroyer Fleet Commander might not gain the recognition of those people."
At this point, even the few people above the hall nodded solemnly. Song Wujiang continued, "Furthermore, we can't neglect the strength of our clan members. Like this, apart from the highest-level secret vault, we will open up the family's several treasure vaults to the clan members. It's time to utilize the accumulated heritage of over three thousand years and the vast resources seized from the Tribulation Star Tribe."
Upon hearing this, Song Xingru, sitting atop a golden throne above, hesitated slightly.
She understood the gravity of the matter, but she felt it was inappropriate to reveal all the family's heritage at once.
"Elder, isn't this too exaggerated? If we reveal all our heritage at once and then suffer a setback, the family's operations may struggle to continue. Moreover, external forces might deduce something from this move."
Without waiting for Song Wujiang to respond, Song Shiyuan at the front spoke up, "No, it's not exaggerated. The intensity of a full-scale war between two top-tier advanced civilizations is beyond imagination. A slight misstep could lead to the death of the entire clan. We must exert all our efforts to have a chance to protect ourselves. Moreover, it's an entire river system cluster; we only need to gain a tiny benefit from it to create a true immortal aristocratic family. Our current sacrifices are for tenfold or even hundredfold returns in the future!"
Song Shiyuan's tone shifted as he continued, "However, the last point is correct. Directly opening the family's secret vaults will easily attract external attention. We should hand this matter over to the various branches, using their own secret vaults as cover. We'll use confidentiality agreements and components to conceal the information as much as possible, delaying its exposure. After a few decades, the news should be made public by the four empires."
...
After discussing the arrangements for the clan members, the crowd talked about many other things.
This included the secret acquisition of various war resources like genetic serums, warrior tree components, enslaved creatures, star sky drones, and the full-scale production of Hellfire Armor.
In summary, with each order issued, the entire Song family, this giant mechanical entity, resumed full operation.
"Alright, besides these, there's one last and most important point."
"The Dragon Spine Continent is just one step away from becoming a Sixth Rank Peak Floating Land. It's time to start planning for the Crimson Star Continent."
"The Hidden Branch has confirmed several suitable locations to absorb the origin core of the Crimson Star Continent. If we can obtain even a trace of its origin core, the difficulty of the Dragon Spine Continent's promotion to Seventh Rank will be reduced by at least half."
Song Wujiang spoke at length, indicating the significance of this matter, far surpassing all previous ones.
If the Dragon Spine Continent successfully advances to Seventh Rank, the energy tide generated will significantly increase the promotion success rate of the Sea Tamer Dragon Soaring. Even the promotion of Song Chi and Song Dingbang's ships to Dreadnoughts will become much simpler.
However, the Song family has been planning this for a long time, and they must not act hastily. Finally, Song Shiyuan spoke, "We can prepare everything in advance, but let's wait for Song Chi's return before taking action. Although the Hyperdimensional Continent doesn't have a Floating Land Will, the commotion caused by absorbing the origin core won't be small. Our preparations alone can't guarantee absolute safety. Only with Song Chi controlling the Star Sky Shark, along with the Sovereign Flagship and the Multiverse Ruins Market projection, can we ensure the utmost safety!"
No one objected to this proposal, as it was related to the Dragon Spine Continent's promotion, a matter of great importance that warranted utmost caution.
"Alright, let's prepare everything and take action as soon as Song Chi returns!!"
Song Chi was unaware of what was happening within the clan. After several warp jumps on the Pursue Star Chase Moon, he had arrived at the Celestial Beacon Palace with the personnel from various Star Towers.
