Chapter 299: 8.26 First Blue Star - Monitoring II

Outer Space.

Outside the hemisphere of Planet Citlali.

The situation at the monitoring rooms of the other battleships.

At the White Tiger's battleship.

The Lin Clan had always taken a neutral standing among all factions. They didn't side with the royal family who had an imperial influence on the people of the empire. Not even siding with the strongest faction in the Federation which is under the control of the Janus Clan nor asked the behemoth family like the Altair Clan to protect them under their wings. They are an independent clan that isn't biased toward anyone.

Moreover, the Lin Clan is a well-known extremely wealthy merchant clan. They had all kinds of business interactions with almost all the Clans in the Oberion Empire even with the Imperial Family and the Federation itself. They also have connections outside the Empire which made it harder for others to move them. After all, destroying the Lin Clan would mean losing the Seaside trade market the Oberion Empire is proud of.

But this doesn't change the fact that the Lin Family's military prowess was the weakest. They are easy to bully and they used to be a common family before the Regulus Royal family bestowed their clan a noble title as Count.

The leader of this unit is Lin Tang. The Master of the Lin Clan and Lin Yven's father. This is why the main perspective of this unit is the team under Feng Jing's name. They watch the scene of this small team in which the majority of its members were from a common background.

Lin Tang's right-hand man is his eldest son and the heir of the Lin Clan, Lin Velvet.

Lin Velvet observes as his father watches his little brother's happy group who had just finished scouting the areas around their campsite and is now surrounding the bonfire with a huge pot of soup placed on it. Unlike the rest of the team who immediately started hunting as soon as they landed on the planet, this team is merrily enjoying their meals first.

"Is there something wrong, father? Isn't Yven's team alright as they took time to adjust themselves to the planet's gravity first instead of heading straight to hunting and avoided injuries due to carelessness?" said Lin Velvet.

General Lin answered, "No. What your brother's team does is correct. I'm only thinking who among them was the real leader?"

"According to the records, the listed team leader is a student named Feng Jing. Just based on his name alone we can say that he is the youngest phoenix from the Feng Clan. But as you see father, he isn't a leader type at all. It is normal that his name was used as the team leader as his noble blood is the purest among the rest.

Though I am surprised that this student called Bai Yuyan took the lead. He is supposed to be a guide. An S ranked one but... according to the data, he isn't the strongest guide in the team but the one called Feng Wu. I thought it would be this student named Xue Ran who would lead the team. As he is a Sentinel and a noble son." Lin Velvet expressed his opinion.

The General didn't react much to his analysis as everything his eldest son had spoken was about what others could see for themselves.

"Velvet, my son, don't rely too much on the data. You must observe it yourself. Moreover, rumors are not one hundred percent true all the time. Before judging someone you need to observe things properly. If I am not wrong I think that the leader tomorrow would be a different person than today." said General Lin but the focus of his serious gaze was on the figure of Feng Jing instead of his son.

Clearly, only he understood the meaning of his gaze, and whatever his hidden thoughts were, no one would know unless he voiced it on his own.

At the warship owned by the Fallen Gods Corps. Every soldier in the monitoring room is in front of the screen watching their future madam play around with his teammates. They already knew the real strength of the future mate of their Marshal. Learning that an 18-year-old guide like Feng Jing possessed the same strength as their marshal is already monstrous enough. When they saw his quantum beast, a Phoenix Hybrid, that night they were all overwhelmed by that gap in their abilities.

Look! It's the Marshal's Wife! I heard he is an SSS rank awakened person like our boss~

The Madama is so cute and adorable~ He didn't know how to fish? I can teach!

Sshss~ Stupid! Hold your tongue didn't the Lieutenant General say that the Marshal gets jealous if his wife is mentioned.

If my wife is as beautiful as madam I would be possessive like the Marshal does!

Right~ The Marshal's wife has strength, noble standing, and beauty. What more can you ask for?

True. Didn't you see the madam looking around as soon as he steps out of the space capsule? He must have spread his spiritual domain to check the state of his surroundings. He only runs towards the river after knowing that there isn't any danger in their surroundings.

I wonder how large the scope of Madam's spiritual domain could reach? Since the madam is an SSS guide then the radius must be large.

Ah~ the Marshal's wife is too godly. Isn't he a Master's level programmer as well? I heard that the absolute defense program owned by the Fire Phoenix Brigade is made by him. He is so amazing~

You idiots! Watch your words if the boss heard you our training would be doubled again! Didn't our training last night was double because you almost crashed the Madam due to your excitement of meeting him!

These soldiers were busy fanboying at their future madam's figure at the monitoring screen that they didn't even hear the sound of the room's door opening and didn't even notice the arrival of their bosses. There is a dark expression on their Marshal's usual cold yet stern face. This time even Xue Ying's friendly smile is twitching seeing this group of fierce soldiers acting like girls while watching the live stream of his cousin's group. What's makes it so stupid is that the target of their fanboying is only holding a fishing rod in his hands seating at the riverside leisurely.

Lieutenant General Xue Ying mumbled at this sight, "What are these guys doing during working hours?"

Then he felt a chill on his skin out of nowhere when he looked at his side he saw their boss with an extremely dark face about to reach out for the energy gun clasped at his waist. As a good and friendly minor boss, it is his duty to save their subordinates from their grumpy boss's massacre.

"M-M-Marshal! Calm down... they are your soldiers," said Xue Ying who grabbed his boss's wrist preventing the latter from pulling out his energy gun.

Marshal Sirius responded, "Liking my wife?! They can only be dead!"

"Come on~ Boss! You can't kill them. Who would fly this huge ship if they all died?"

[A/n: All of the soldiers who were inside the monitoring room are the ones who control the huge warship to fly. Such a large ship cannot be operated with one person alone and needs at least a group to fully control it.]

After slightly calming down his nerves, Altair Sirius let go of his gun and instead summoned his quantum beast. "Tsk! Roi, sweep them away from the screen. I can't see my wife!"

[Yes, Master!]

As soon as the Marshal ordered that a huge black dragon materialized inside the room. With a swipe of his tail, the soldiers blocking the monitor were all swept away by the side like a bowling pin.

WWUAAHHH!!!

Ignoring the newly piled-up human mountain at the corner, Altair Sirius took his seat and watched the scenes on the monitor. Xue Ying stood by his side and gave orders to the officers inside the room.

"Sigh~ you've been in a bad mood since Xiao Jing left? Is it a sequela from suffering a mania?" asked Xue Ying worriedly.

The Marshal adjusts his emotions and replies, "My compatibility with Jing'er is 100 percent. What kind of sequela do you want me to suffer from? I just feel uncomfortable without him by my side. After all, since Jing'er is still so young I haven't made a permanent mark on him yet."

"That's right! Xiao Jing is only 18. Boss, you still need to wait for 3 more years~ tsk! Tsk!" said Xue Ying with a teasing smile on his face.

The Marshal gave him a sharp and cold glare, "Do you want to die?"

Gulps!

"No! I'm sorry!" said Xue Ying after seeing his boss's dangerous expression.

Altair Sirius's grumpy expression only eases at the sight of his beloved on the monitor screen. Seeing Feng Jing play around like a child, a smile couldn't be helped but appeared on the corner of his lips. The soldiers who witnessed their Evil Boss smiling were all rendered speechless while covered in goosebumps.

Planet Citlali.

The huge river was clean and unpolluted. The forest was wide and prosperous in greens plus towering trees. This star's ecology is stable and rich. This planet would be a good place to leave if not because of its location being near the territory of the Zerg race.

Bai Yuyan and the other two had returned to the camp after scouting the area. The place is quite huge and there are lots of beasts roaming around. By the time the investigation group had come back, they brought some wild prizes they got from the forest. There are a few wild peasants and a wild boar they've hunted on the way.

Everyone's expression brightens seeing the meat the scouting team had brought back with them. Even though the people who were tasked with making meals today made some fish soup and grilled fish, there is no one who can hate eating meat unless one is a vegetarian. In this group of meat lovers, the wild pheasants and wild boar are delicacies for them.

Lin Yven and Wu Liu took the meat from Bai Yuyan and the rest. While the three rejoined the group and informed the other members of the team about the result of their scouting.

Xue Ran asked, "What did you get?"

"This place is big and the resources are abundant. There are mostly only wild beasts in this region," said Feng Wu.

Si Shen spoke, "The only ones counted as kill points are just Zergs. When he killed the chicken and the pig, there was no reaction from our communicators."

"I've also noticed some caves. There are some treasure boxes inside. If the first three days are to gather resources for three whole days then... this could only mean that in the middle and central region, the resources provided are limited." Bai Yuyan shared his analysis of their situation.

Qu Yul spoke, "Just how scarce are the resources in the other region for the organizers of this event to give us three days in the outer region? Moreover, does this mean that once we entered the middle region we could no longer return to the outer region?"

"Wait! If it's like this then ---" Han Ling's words were cut off as all of the communicators announced the event's progress.

[Ding! Freshmen Team, Group XXX! Had been disqualified for entering the middle regions without enough resources at hand.

I repeat! Ding! Freshmen Team, Group XXX! Had been disqualified for entering the middle regions without enough resources at hand.]

This announcement was shared with all other participants of the competition. It's only been three hours since they've landed on this planet and there is already a team who got eliminated for rushing things.

Everyone's expression turns serious upon hearing this announcement. Now that Qu Yul's analysis had been proven, what they were only lacking was how much is the required resources for everyone to pass the restriction of the middle and central region.

Qu Yul spoke, "This is quite serious. We don't know how much resource is enough to pass the requirements to enter the middle region. There is also the central region included in it."

"That will be 6 days in both the middle and central region. If the resources in those places are scarce, how much must we collect?" said Si Shen.

Han Ling suggested, "Collect as much as we could in three days?"

"And where are we going to put it? Our team's warehouse is full of gears and spare weapons as well as extra mecha energy batteries," said Xue Ran.

Solaris Vega spoke, "Isn't Xiao Yven our logistic officer? Why are you guys racking your brains for something you didn't specialize in?" he said with an innocent expression on his face. In his hands, were weapons their teams were going to use for hunting after eating their meals.

Everyone paused as they had forgotten that gathering resources is not their job to do. They all look at Lin Yven who was busy removing the feathers of the wild pheasants. They would be cooking for meals.

Feng Wu approached Lin Yven and said, "I will clean the chicken and the pig. You first do your work as logistics."

"Um? Okay. Please remove all feathers. It would be unpalatable if there are traces of feathers on the chickens when roasted." said Lin Yven smiling.

Feng Wu nodded and took the place of Lin Yven with cooking preparations. Lin Yven joined the team's discussion about the resources. With a logistic officer like Lin Yven added in their discussion, they were able to estimate the resources they needed to gather for the three days in the outer region. It becomes a lot easier to know what they should hunt and collect for three days. With Lin Yven assessment, the probability of having fewer resources when they've entered the other region would decrease.

Lin Yven, "Now, the problem is that we lack a spacious warehouse to stock the resources. You guys said that in those caves there are treasure boxes right? I presume that inside those might me, space inventory gadgets."

Hearing this Han Ling opened the whole outer region map of Planet Citlali that was collected when the scouting had investigated a few hours ago. Bai Yuyan and the others didn't forget to use the program Feng Jing had provided them. They immediately used the Mapping mode and gathered enough terrain of the planet while scouting.

Feng Jing's program was used immediately on the first day as planned. This is because the academy and the organizers of this event didn't provide the participants anything, including the planet's map, except the rules and regulations of the competition. Obviously, those behind this event want to measure and see how the participants would do without the map of the location.

Feng Jing spoke while holding a cup of soup in his hands, "Isn't my program extremely useful? With it, you can gather the map just by walking around the area. It would scan and record everything you had seen or met. Not only that, the data is shared among the group."

Everyone looked at their communicator and checked what their leader had said just now. Seeing that the features Feng Jing had all mentioned are really available for them they could help but look at Feng Jing with an admiring gaze. This program their leader nonchalantly gave to them was too powerful and is almost a cheat.
