Ch.413Make Humanity Great Again! (4)

About 3 days later.

Thousands of mercenary groups mobilized by Antares and lower clan leaders, along with the Earth Defense Fleet (and more), were about to clash head-on.

In the process, the Pan-Humanity Alliance lost two Level 8 strongholds including “New Saint-Germain,” one Level 7 stronghold, and about 20 Level 5 or lower strongholds to the Earth Defense Fleet, but…

-[Damn, they finally took the bait]

-[Fleet launching from ‘Bermuda’ with 12 clan fleets]

-[‘Sahara Fortress’ Earth Federation detachment neutralized, almost completed encirclement formation]

-[RAAAAARGH]

—————————————–

Unlike the desperate situation they showed at the beginning due to excessive confusion.

Thanks to the stabilized frontline, Humanity’s staff had established a grand strategy to lure the Earth Defense Fleet’s forces as deep as possible before surrounding and annihilating them.

For this purpose, they deliberately thinned the defensive line near the Level 9 stronghold “Balthazar Fortress City,” which served as Humanity Clan’s main base.

This would draw the Earth Defense Fleet’s aggro toward Balthazar, and then…

After recovering their forces as much as possible during these three days, they mobilized a fleet of approximately 140,000 users who had poured in all their resources.

They intended to surround and annihilate the damned Earth Defense Fleet and finally put an end to this cursed coup.

Of course, since they were all just individual users, there were many blunders along the way.

At one point, the Earth Defense Fleet’s aggro ping-ponged unexpectedly, nearly ruining the entire grand strategy, but…

<Notice: Team Fight Preparation>

-[Ah crap, we’ve been spotted]

-[You idiot]

-[No choice, I’ll sacrifice myself]

-[Ugh, my stuff]

-[Remember me!!!]

-[I will!!!!]

-[I will remember you!!!!!!]

-[But honestly, it’s all that guy’s fault]

-[Shh, quiet]

—————————————–

Thanks to that user acknowledging their mistake and sacrificing themselves by throwing in 5 S-class or higher superhumans and 12 gacha ships, the grand strategy could proceed as planned.

And after all these twists and turns…

-BOOM!

-BOOM!

“Damn it.”

“Seeing them actually attack is pretty scary after all.”

“Fire the fortress cannons! Burn them to a crisp!”

-BOOOOOOM!!!

“Wow, those monster bastards are still intact even after taking fortress cannon hits.”

-BOOM! KABOOM!!!

“Ugh?!”

“W-what?!”

“Commander! Three of Balthazar’s five fortress cannons have been destroyed by the Jormungand-class bombardment!”

“Oh shit.”

As soon as the Earth Defense Fleet brought Balthazar Fortress City within range, they began their bombardment.

-[Quickly converge on Balthazar](Antares)

-[All users gather now, these bastards took the bait]

-[GO GO GO GO]

-[Now’s the time!]

—————————————–

Finally, to completely surround and annihilate the Earth Defense Fleet that had taken the “bait,” even some eastern users joined in.

With “at least” 150,000 users, combining user fleet points with “mercenary groups” and “faction detachments”…

A massive fleet totaling over 150 million points was being mobilized to surround and attack the Earth Defense Fleet.

<Notice: GO NOW GO GO GO GO>

-[Don’t hold back your ships or we’re all screwed, bring everything from dreadnoughts to patrol ships]

-[Does the Earth Defense Fleet have small ships?]

-[Tons of them, don’t forget the Defense Fleet alone numbers in the millions]

-[That’s insane]

—————————————–

And as the grand battle progressed, it was truly a magnificent and majestic sight that made one’s heart tremble.

Unfortunately, I and other users…

Is this for real?

We mobilized all the stealth ships our clan had, and they’re all gone now, damn it

Comments:

-[LOLOLOLOLOLOL]

-[OMG LOL]

-[What the hell happened]

-˪[According to my friend who’s in the battle, the Jormungand-class ships fired flame cannons in unison, causing widespread destruction]

-˪[Yeah, the battle line collapsed in an instant because of that, it’s chaos]

-[This is crazy]

—————————————–

Because “News Boy’s” stealth ships that were broadcasting the war got caught in the Jormungand-class ships’ barrage.

Suddenly, despite being in the middle of a war, we had no way of knowing how Humanity’s war was progressing except for the “testimonies” of some idle users who were posting on the gallery.

Of course, many gallery users furiously protested to “News Boy” about this situation.

1. To get information about that war, no joke, we gathered as many stealth ships as possible and deployed 3,000 of them

2. But most of them got caught in the crossfire and were destroyed, with only 280 remaining near Balthazar and the allied fleet

3. And now that those are all destroyed too, we have no ships left to deploy

[Same organization screen, but with all ships marked as “Destroyed” for verification.jpg]

Here’s proof

Comments:

-[…Holy shit]

-[Sacred excrement!]

-[If you deployed over 3,000 ships and they all got wrecked, nothing we can do]

-[I came here to curse you out, but after seeing the number deployed and that they all got wiped out, I’ll offer a moment of silence instead]

-[Oh my]

—————————————–

“Oh my, how pitiful…”

“The scale of the war is just too large, but even that alone would be a devastating blow for a single clan.”

Three thousand ships might not sound like much.

But since stealth ships can only be obtained through “gacha” or purchased on the “trading market” rather than being produced by users themselves.

After providing proof of the enormous loss they suffered, gallery users quickly performed the “Talullah” (retreat) and hastily fled the scene.

And watching these scenes, I went to sleep thinking that some news would eventually come, and the next morning…

As I was leisurely completing various miscellaneous tasks and daily quests.

Or watching the two Krakens who had returned from the monsters’ “nest” happily playing ball with an asteroid while sipping the milk tea Pashtra had brought me.

<Earth Federation’s Final Day!>

<Content>

<The “Earth Federation,” one of the 4 major factions, has collapsed after failing to withstand the large-scale coup led by the “Humanity” clan!>

<Due to the massive battle at “Balthazar Fortress City,” the Earth Federation’s elite fleet has been annihilated.>

<The fleets defending the capital district have all surrendered, placing all Earth Federation territories under the “Humanity” clan.>

<The representative of the Federal Government, the “Security Council President,” reportedly managed to escape with the flagship Leviathan and the “Leviathan Squadron,” but no further news has been reported.>

<Result>

<Earth Federation flagship Leviathan, Leviathan Squadron, and Security Council President missing>

<As of this moment, all Earth Federation territories and strongholds have been transferred to the “Humanity” clan.>

—————————————–

“Wow!”

“Wow!”

I have no idea how they managed it, but upon hearing that Humanity had finally won.

I decided to silently applaud the Humanity users who were determined to devour the faction through sheer perseverance.
