Though the content Icarus posted was brief, simple, and concise.

The meaning contained in that short post was by no means insignificant.

Users who suddenly found themselves witnessing this entertaining event(?) were having quite a bit of fun watching how the situation was unfolding.

But Icarus himself, who posted the message, was in a state of “extreme rage,” clearly showing how dumbfounded he was.

So gallery users, wondering what exactly had happened, continued to express their confusion.

About 10 minutes later.

Title: Real-time Tannhäuser situation.txt

Author: Anonymous

Hello hello, I’m a mercenary user currently docked at Tannhäuser, let me explain what’s happening

1. The Leviathan Squadron fleeing from Humanity territory toward a gate probably triggered some kind of random warp in the system

2. Since the only “gate hub usable by other faction fleets” in the central zone is Tannhäuser owned by Icarus

3. The system automatically sent the Leviathan Squadron to Tannhäuser

4. The Leviathan Squadron forced open the Tannhäuser gate, entered, and immediately destroyed Icarus’s Dreadnought and all user ships near the gate

5. Now everyone’s gathering every ship they have to face off against them as shown in the image

-[This situation is wild LOLOL]

-[Shouldn’t Humanity provide additional compensation for this? LOL]

-˪[I heard Icarus is already messaging Antares directly about this](Author)

-[The taste of Humanity’s poop ball, I will never forget…!]

-˪[Damn it, I was just starting to forget about that]

After a user who claimed to be docked at Tannhäuser posted a somewhat detailed explanation.

Gallery users were reacting that Icarus got screwed over even worse than Humanity.

===========

Meanwhile, a few minutes before the post above.

“Hmm, nice.”

“It’s already progressed that far?”

Perhaps because time flew by so quickly while participating as a mercenary in Humanity’s war and doing various other things.

The fortress main cannon, which I had just started building when the war began, now had only about 3 days left until repair completion.

And separate from the fortress cannon, another building was just finishing construction at my base.

—————————————-

<<<Nemesis Orbital Ring Construction Complete>>>

<7,500,000 ⇒ 9,000,000>

˪<Regular shipyards 4 ⇒ 5>

˪<Large ship shipyards 2 ⇒ 3>

<950 points ⇒ 1,050 points>

—————————————-

‘Mmm, delicious.’

It was none other than the ‘ridiculously expensive’ Nemesis Orbital Ring, which boosts various base functions.

‘Though it was ridiculously expensive, this is pretty good value considering how buildings get more expensive as you progress.’

Of course, that “good value” was only relative to other level 9 buildings.

And compared to even more expensive buildings to come, it was like saying “5% gacha rate? What a deal!” – not much different from that kind of feeling.

Anyway, after having that thought.

“Jessica, how many resources do we have left now?”

“Including resources received from the Humanity clan, we have 18 million minerals and 7.9 million rare resources!”

Just as Jessica said, thanks to the sweet rewards received for our mercenary work, our wallet(?) was quite full.

As soon as the Nemesis Orbital Ring construction finished, I immediately checked the remaining construction list.

‘Oh, there’s only one left anyway.’

I decided to start building the <Faction-Specific Special Building> that remained last.

For some reason, what I could build was hidden as <???> like this.

I felt irritation slowly bubbling up, wondering if even this resource-guzzling building was going to be another random box.

But that feeling didn’t last long.

The moment I started construction.

—————————————-

<Faction-Specific Special Building (Current Faction ‘Space Monster’) Under Construction…>

—————————————-

“Ohhh…”

“Commander, what is that to warrant such a reaction?”

“It’s a facility that can heal Krakens and other large monsters at our base instead of having to send them back to the monster nest whenever they get moderately damaged or worse.”

“Wow.”

Seeing that a dedicated pool(?) for Krakens was being built—which had been the only flaw in our fleet—

I could feel a small but definite happiness knowing that Krakens wouldn’t need to go all the way back to the monster home base for a half-body bath anymore.

Of course, separate from that, while this was the cheapest of the level 9 auxiliary buildings.

Seeing that it would take nearly two months to build, that small happiness quickly faded.

Well, such timeframes would pass quickly enough while doing various other small tasks.

So I thought whatever and decided to proceed with building the “special defense facilities” I had previously planned to construct.

And while thinking about that.

“Oh, Commander?”

“Yes?”

“There’s suddenly a warp reaction coming from the Tannhäuser gate?”

“…Suddenly?”

As Jessica said something that made me mentally create countless question marks, I was about to express my confusion.

But at that very moment.

-Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!

“Emergency alert! Large fleet detected inside the Tannhäuser gate!”

“Super Dreadnought… no, an ultra-large ship even bigger than that!”

“What.”

As the urgent voices of the operator NPCs in the command center reached my ears.

I could see a user’s battleship that was trying to pass through the gate getting completely destroyed by a hit-and-run from an “excessively large, and large” super-heavy battleship that emerged from the gate.

And then several dozen extremely thick beam streams extended from inside the gate with a BWOOOOONG sound, hitting my Dreadnought that had just finished repairs and was moving for leveling.

Seeing my Dreadnought evaporate with only part of its bow remaining from that insane barrage.

I froze with brain lag at the situation unfolding before my eyes.

And exactly 0.32 seconds later, when my brain started working again.

“…KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!”

Seeing my brand-new Dreadnought 1, which was barely a month old and had just been repaired from battle damage, turn into just a “D”.

An extremely high-pitched scream like that of a 5-year-old girl spontaneously erupted from my mouth.
