The Star Alliance Military Research Institute sent an urgent notification this evening, which was delivered to the Wrist Communicators of the three highest commanders of the Star Alliance Military.
The three commanders of the Star Alliance include two from the Main World and one from Dark Space. This also includes General Muku Tenmu, the Supreme Commander of the Dark Space Sanctuary Military Base.
The urgent notification analyzed the impact of the Mysterious Voice Incident that occurred a few days ago on the Space Train between Dark Space and Earth.
According to the Military Research Institute's examination of over a hundred soldiers who heard the mysterious Coordinate on the Space Train that day, they compared their findings with numerous ordinary citizens and soldiers who did not hear the Coordinate.
The Star Alliance Military Research Institute concluded that those who heard the mysterious Coordinate, nearly ten thousand soldiers and generals from two Fortresses, have been affected by a Special Influence generated by a mysterious energy within them.
This influence will cause these ten thousand soldiers and generals to die simultaneously in three months, with no possibility of escape or survival.
The Star Alliance Military Research Institute urged the military to pay attention to this matter and take immediate action to investigate the cause of this unknown Death Sound Curse Incident.
General Muku Tenmu and the two military generals in the Main World immediately ordered the production of soundproof earplugs and temporarily halted the operation of Space Trains traveling between Dark Space and Main World.
The Space Train service will only resume once the Earplugs are successfully produced and tested.
That night, General Muku Tenmu held an emergency video conference across space with the other two leaders of the Star Alliance in the Main Plane of Earth.
Although connecting this conference consumed a lot of energy, it was deemed necessary compared to the impending death faced by tens of thousands of generals and soldiers in three months, as well as potential future risks posed by the Four-Digit Coordinate sound. The three Overall Commanders did not dare to be negligent.
"Has the Earth Research Institute tested this? Can we confirm that those tens of thousands of soldiers and generals who heard the sound will die within three months?" General Muku Tenmu asked.
"Old Mu, those researchers won't send us an urgent notification unless they have conclusive results. It seems this matter has already been settled."
"Preventive measures are easy to implement; at worst, we can have all soldiers entering the Space Train wear special earplugs or administer anesthetics to put them to sleep for a while. But what about those soldiers and generals from the two Fortresses who have already been cursed?"
If tens of thousands of these experienced Dark Space Warriors were to suddenly die three months from now, the impact on the citizens of the Main World would be immense.
Panic would be hard to quell, and the two Fortresses that lost most of their commanders and soldiers would enter a period of recovery, unable to conduct mining operations in Dark Space for some time.
This would also be a disaster for the Star Alliance, which had just seen improvements in energy. "We need to try to get our spies to investigate what's happening over at the Glorious Empire.
Let's see if anything similar is occurring there. Also, the contents of this emergency notice must not be leaked in the Main World for now; otherwise, it will cause panic among those soldiers and commanders who only get one month off a year and have finally returned to the Main Plane of Earth.
If they find out that after a year of hard work, they can only return to Earth for a month of vacation, only to be cursed with death three months later while traveling, it could lead to a military coup among the commanders of the Main Plane of Earth and the existing Fortresses in Dark Space," said another elder Supreme Commander from Earth.
If Rek were here, he would recognize this old man as the Starry Commandant, currently the strongest warrior of the Star Alliance Military's Genetic Mech.
"Send some laboratory researchers immediately to the Dark Space and Main Plane of Earth passage. They should take a ride on the Space Train and conduct an analysis," General Muku Tenmu said seriously.
"That's doable, but now the signal has disappeared.
The researchers are unlikely to yield any results; the only clue we have is that mysterious Four-Digit Coordinate. This Four-Digit Coordinate likely does not belong to this world.
According to analyses by personnel from the Star Alliance Military Laboratory, this Four-Digit Coordinate points to another spatial point's Coordinate, which could very well be an entrance to Ancient Ruins.
The appearance of the Death Curse seems to urge us to act quickly and enter this four-digit Coordinate point; there may be a way there to save our tens of thousands of soldiers and commanders," said the Starry General.
"Four-Digit Coordinate? Another spatial point!
Even if Ancient Ruins exist, our current technology cannot direct travel through space and time points, let alone plan a journey to this Four-Digit Coordinate point," a general spoke up.
Muku Tenmu, the Overall Commander, pondered for a few seconds before speaking: "If the Military Research Institute confirms that this Four-Digit Coordinate is a special spatial point Coordinate or an Ancient Ruins Coordinate, we will have no choice but to seek cooperation from the Glorious Empire and see if they possess technology for traversing spatial Coordinate points."
Upon hearing General Muku Tenmu's words, the other two generals were not pleased.
"Old Mu, I know that the tens of thousands of people who are about to die are your Dark Space warriors, and you are anxious.
However, this matter cannot be mentioned to the Glorious Empire for now.
The Glorious Empire is also in dire need of energy. Once they discover that our Dark Space Fortress's overall strength has declined, it is likely that some unpredictable friction will arise, whether on the Main Plane of Earth or in Dark Space.
We have maintained peace with the Glorious Empire for so many years, not only because of the discovery of Dark Space and the ability to exploit new energy sources but also because the strengths of our two empires are roughly equal.
Now this balance of power is about to be broken. If the overall strength of the Glorious Empire surpasses that of our Star Alliance, it is very likely that peace will come to an end, and a great war with the Glorious Empire will begin again. Our Main Plane of Earth can no longer withstand such turmoil; the existing energy on Earth is too scarce," Elder Starshine spoke up.
"Just now, the Military Laboratory sent another message. Since we cannot find a solution in the Main World, we should search within Dark Space.
In the files from Dark Space, there was a record of an Alien Species ability chart that described a creature called the Time Beast.
This Time-Space Beast Variant possesses the ability to teleport and traverse time and space at specific times and locations.
According to the speculation of the expedition team members who recounted this information at that time, whenever this Time Beast traverses, its eyes shine brightly; its eyes should be the key to opening the time-space portal.
If we can hunt down this Time Beast and extract its eyes, we might be able to pinpoint our way to this mysterious Four-Digit Coordinate Location," another Supreme Commander stated.
"And how come I have never heard of Dark Space having a Time Beast?" General Muku Tenmu asked, somewhat puzzled.
"That record was made when the Adventure Team was established during the early discovery phase of Dark Space. The recording conditions were not very complete at that time, and since it was merely speculation, it was not included in the current Alien Species ability statistics but placed in the early collection files of Dark Space, which is why it has only recently been discovered," a military Supreme Commander explained.
"So I can only rely on luck? Ridiculous!"
Even if we capture this Exotic Space Beast and gouge out its eyes, it may not necessarily allow us to cross into the Four-Digit Coordinate. Even if we do make it through, it might not be able to save the lives of the tens of thousands of warriors in my Fortress.
Those researchers are useless. Here I am, risking my life in the dangerous environment of Dark Space to find energy, while those researchers can't even manage basic logistical support and let a Deadly Curse appear in the Space Train. General Muku Tenmu grew increasingly agitated, slamming his hand on the table.
"Old Mu! This is the only method we can think of right now; we have to try it out. Fortunately, that Adventure Team documented the activity range of the Time Beast back then.
I will send you all the mission records and details written by that Adventure Team from back then. We don't want this kind of thing to happen, but since it has occurred with your soldiers, we will do everything we can to cooperate with you and find a solution.
We have also taken control of the Main World radio to prevent this news from spreading or appearing in the Main World," Elder Starshine spoke up.
"You need to find results quickly. Otherwise, if my two Fortress soldiers are dead in three months, I will call back the remaining ten Fortress soldiers.
After that, I will take them back to the Main World and no longer risk our lives in Dark Space.
When we return to the Main World, we will enjoy ourselves while you and your troops can stay in Dark Space for a few decades," General Muku Tenmu said with irritation before ending the video conference, concluding this unpleasant call.
A few minutes later, General Muku Tenmu's Wrist Communicator beeped, indicating he had received all known information about the Time Beast.
An electronic video recorded descriptions and speculations about the Time Beast at that time, as well as insights from team members who encountered the Time Beast and survived, all transmitted to General Muku Tenmu.
After studying it seriously for over an hour, he called over his communications officer.
"Open the Dark Space Virtual Map for me and display this area. Now show me which Fortress we are currently operating in Dark Space is closest to this area.
Also, how long would it take to get there at maximum speed?" General Muku Tenmu provided the communications officer with the Coordinates from his Wrist Communicator.
The communications officer immediately activated the virtual 3D screen and marked the Coordinate point.
"Report, Overall Commander. The closest one to this area is Super Soldier Academy Fortress. If Super Soldier Academy Fortress were at its current position and traveled at full speed, it would likely reach this area within ten days."
The second closest location to this area is the Drug Research Fortress Laboratory. However, even if we drive at full speed from now on, it will take twenty-five days to reach that area.
The third closest location is the Armored Fortress. If we drive at full speed, we will need fifty-one days to navigate around some heavily dangerous zones inhabited by Alien Species.
"Immediately send the coordinates of this area to the Yin Yang Principal of the Super Soldier Academy and instruct him to activate the Super Soldier Academy Fortress to head towards that area."
"As for the Drug Research Fortress, inform them to halt their current tasks and proceed towards the designated area. They must arrive within thirty days. Do not disclose the reason to the Overall Commander of the Research Fortress."
"For the Armored Fortress, instruct them to remain on standby and await further notice."
"Schedule a video call with the Yin Yang Principal of the Super Soldier Academy for tomorrow morning. Tell him I have something important to discuss after breakfast, and he should be the only one receiving this information," General Muku Tenmu said.
Afterward, General Muku Tenmu rubbed his temples, thinking, "The Super Soldier Academy Fortress has my daughter working as a teacher there.
I hope this Time Beast mission does not put Maya in danger. However, as the Overall Commander of the military, facing such a situation and having reviewed reports and strength analyses from past expeditions against Time Beasts, I am well aware of their terrifying power.
But I also know that I cannot show favoritism towards my precious daughter Maya and shield her from danger.
As the Overall Commander of the Dark Space Star Alliance, I must deploy the Super Soldier Academy Fortress to confront the Time Beasts; this seems to be the most correct choice right now. This way, my soldiers and commanders from both Fortresses have a chance of surviving in three months."
After contemplating for a moment, General Muku Tenmu still felt uneasy and said to his communications officer beside him, "Select three of the highest-ranking Genetic Mecha Warriors from Sanctuary Base and have them depart immediately for the Super Soldier Academy Fortress to assist the Yin Yang Principal in completing a special mission.
Make it urgent; send them a fast Hover Transport Vehicle so they can catch up with the moving Super Soldier Academy Fortress as quickly as possible."
"Yes, Supreme Commander," the communications officer replied before promptly executing General Muku Tenmu's orders.
---
The next morning, after breakfast, the Yin Yang Principal locked himself alone in his Principal's Office. Half an hour later, he issued a series of commands. Except for teams currently mining minerals, all other external task forces were instructed to abandon their missions and return immediately to the Super Soldier Academy Fortress.
The Fortress will activate its Land Warfare Fortress form, moving quickly without concerning itself with the hidden Alien Horde along the way.
Numerous commands reached the teachers, and Maya did not know the exact reason; she only vaguely felt that something significant was about to happen.
During the morning class, many teachers wore solemn expressions.
"Rek, Alice, be prepared at all times; we may soon be deploying the Fortress for a mission again," Maya said to the two students in the classroom.
"Master Muya, do you know why? The Super Soldier Academy Fortress switched to combat mode as a Land Warfare Fortress after breakfast today and is moving rapidly. Have there been any discoveries at the destination?" Alice, dressed in a doll outfit, asked Maya.
Maya attended class today still wearing her Special Class Teacher Uniform, not the alluring evening gown she had taken last night.
"I estimate that once the Super Soldier Academy Fortress stops, we will know the outcome. For now, just make sure to rest well over these next few days. Alright, let's start class; today we will discuss strategic command.
Although Genetic Mecha Warriors often charge to the front lines to confront Alien Species, understanding some tactics and their application will benefit you in future battles, whether in solo or team operations," Maya stated.
Rek and Alice took out their notebooks and pretended to casually jot down information.
