"Here it comes!"
Kun’s Child charged ahead, stepping upon the void, with a nearly ten-thousand-meter half-human, half-whale shell, emanating a terrifying biological wave no less intense than that of a Space Giant Beast.
From his chest to his abdomen, there are close to 60 Whale Holes, and every pulse of these Whale Holes would blow hundreds of starships around off course.
Kun’s Child knew that to win this battle, he must go all out to have a decent chance of victory.
As for those ’Allied Forces’ that came with him, including Interstellar Mercenaries, subordinates of the Planet Governor, and war slaves under Slave Merchants—none of them were reliable.
At the first sign of disadvantage, they would likely flee the scene.
"Notify the Allied Forces that I need them to each send a third of their spaceship fleet to tangle with the Calamity Corps."
"Once I penetrate the planet, there will be enough benefits for them to divide."
"Your Highness!" Giant Fern looked worriedly at Kun’s Child.
In the original military plan, Kun’s Child, as the Military Commander, wasn’t supposed to act in the early stages. If nothing else, getting close would guarantee attention from the Planet Cannon.
"There’s nothing without risk," Kun’s Child said calmly.
Soon, the orders were issued, and Kun’s Child’s reputation was effective. Dense Star Thief Spaceships advanced towards Long-horned Whale Alpha from all directions.
Although the spaceships were of a lesser grade than starships, their sheer numbers were overwhelming.
Quickly, dense Energy Cannons, Space Torpedoes, and Laser Networks unfolded within these 100 astronomical units (an astronomical unit is the distance between the Sun and Earth).
"Fire, fire, fire!! Let these bastards know what ’Turret Style’ means!" ’Get Out of the Way, I’ll Deliver First’ exclaimed excitedly.
On his starship, tens of thousands of energy turrets rose up, and with AI control, tens of thousands of Light Cannons fired in unison, popping a cluster of Star Thief Ships even before they approached.
Note that in the game "Cyber Realm," there is no recharge option.
Thus, typical rich players tend to follow the auspicious birthright style.
’Get Out of the Way, I’ll Deliver First’ is a typical auspicious birthright type.
He was born on Mechanical Split Star, landing amongst its pinnacle as a member of Cloud Nobility, achieving what players strive for lifetimes through modifications simply by birth.
While enjoying life, ’misfortune’ struck.
A hacker named Paradise Bird suddenly hacked into ’Cloud City’ and exiled it to Cosmos.
Concerning NPC wars, ’Get Out of the Way, I’ll Deliver First’ naturally adhered to ’you fight yours, I’ll run mine,’ leading the escape.
Of course, before leaving, he also ensured he filled several black cards through family channels, aided by the Super Hacker’s hack.
Then at ’Other Shore of Freedom,’ ’Get Out of the Way, I’ll Deliver First’ indulged in a dissolute period, lost in pleasures. After swapping out several bionic replacements, he resolved not to squander his youth anymore and to strive forward.
While others fought monsters and leveled up, he battled seductresses in bed, exuberant enough to deal with male demons as well—not good, not good.
Thus, he decided to also make an effort, to build a career.
The fact proved, fate wouldn’t favor someone forever.
Entrepreneurship, failure; entrepreneurship, failure; entrepreneurship, failure.
Ultimately, he couldn’t even fill two remaining black cards out of the dozens he initially maxed.
This is worse than indulging until isolation!!
’Get Out of the Way, I’ll Deliver First’ reevaluated and resolved to attempt once more by investing in the stock market, choosing a good stock.
This time, he learned from past mistakes, ignoring the hyped-up stocks in favor of a peculiar company, nearly barren in descriptions, its name as mundane as dirt.
This company’s name was ’Du Gao Technology.’
The company’s business scope included infrastructure, mechanical maintenance, and mecha—all indicators of an honest enterprise.
Upon hearing they operated mechas, ’Get Out of the Way, I’ll Deliver First’ invested immediately.
Thus, throughout Du Gao Technology’s few public fundraisings, a wealthy player oddly became one of its shareholders.
Even later, as Du Gao Technology transformed into Cybertron Corps, this shareholding wasn’t seized by the system.
When Baozi schemed to undermine factions and everyone believed him the richest player, ’Get Out of the Way, I’ll Deliver First’ quietly remained a minor shareholder of the Legion.
In truth, being a shareholder had little perks aside from having the best Prosthetic Body arranged first, using the finest equipment first, bragging among high-tier NPCs—losing starships didn’t matter when your family builds them.
Therefore, while everyone chased after Rome, ’Get Out of the Way, I’ll Deliver First’ again lived a life without aim in Rome.
Nevertheless, he learned from this time by mimicking typical player activities, like monster hunting and fishing, and leveraging his extensive starship experience to accurately assess component strengths and verify hull gameplay styles, gradually becoming a popular technical expert on forums.
Compared to a certain swindler, their reputations were worlds apart.
’Get Out of the Way, I’ll Deliver First’ ultimately found life’s meaning in discreet showing-off, never flaunting wealth.
This time, he also teamed up with many ’Turret Style’ player Ship Officers in frontline combat, even proactively engaging a wounded Space Giant Whale.
Upon engagement, they were astounded by the opponent’s blood volume.
This ’Satellite Monster’s blood volume was in billions.
Despite losing tens of millions of blood in every assault on planetary defenses, its life-length bar still cowed them with dread.
"Master Kai, are we sure about this? It feels like once we’re up, there’s no coming down."
"Why not target Humanoid Monster? These levels of creatures are beyond our current reach."
"Its blood volume recovery seems faster than my adrenaline surge."
"Let’s try it, retreat if necessary."
’Get Out of the Way, I’ll Deliver First’ declared.
Ultimately, a dozen starships surrounded it.
Thousands of beams engulfed the Tier 2 Giant Beast Warrior, momentarily blurring whether the monster consumed them or vice versa.
As a minor shareholder, ’Get Out of the Way, I’ll Deliver First’ knew secrets unknown to many players.
For instance, military planning indicated these battlefield Space Giant Whales would suddenly decrease their blood volume at a certain point.
This presented an opportunity for monster farming.
Among millions of players, only two knew this: him, and another named ’Don’t worry, you’ll be in a hurry later.’
He knew because he was a shareholder.
The other knew due to providing a blueprint to the faction.
The blueprint wasn’t the key; the key was its level of 13.
Note that the highest blueprint level Tier 2 players could gamble was level 10.
The astonishing thing was that it was self-crafted, bypassing level caps naturally.
Indeed, tactics for besieging ’Kun’s Child’ were crafted due to this blueprint.
This mechanical blueprint was called ’Ship Annihilation Cannon.’
On the battlefield overview at the command center, one could clearly see the player’s 50,000 starships and several million drafted players at the forefront.
While another 150,000 starships were tasked to entangle Kun’s Child’s main force.
These starships were all AI-controlled.
