Global Era of Star trekking-Chapter 772 - 408: Heavenly Star Floating Island

Red River Star Domain, a small Star Domain adjacent to the Chaotic Star Field, is, strictly speaking, also a part of the Chaotic Star Field, yet this Star Domain has been under the control of the Heavenly Star Tribe for tens of thousands of years.

As for the Heavenly Star Tribe, it is a typical Intermediate Civilization of the Starry Sea, with nearly a double-digit number of Fifth Rank Units among its people, which is considered standard for such civilizations.

Considering such a tribe, wasn't the Song Family capable of annihilating them in one fell swoop?

Certainly not, especially after Song Wujiang formally stepped into the ranks of the Fearless Captains, the Song Family had the full capability to destroy the Heavenly Star Tribe and incorporate the entire Red River Star Domain into Dinghai.

The reason for not doing so was simple: the Heavenly Star Tribe wasn't just the Heavenly Star Tribe; behind them stood the entire Chaotic Star Field, the Robber Star Civilization. If the whole Red River Star Domain were to be annexed, it would definitely turn the Robber Star Race's attention towards themselves, a twist that a family just advancing into Sixth Rank would obviously not wish to see.

But now it was different. With the Yaohan Kingdom formally declaring all-out war on the Robber Star Race, the Robber Star Race was already too busy to care for itself. It was the perfect time for the Song Family to bare its fangs—if they could seize enough benefits in the subsequent conquest wars, the entire family's foundation would rapidly rise throughout the next centuries. This was the Song Family's opportunity.

In the northern part of the Dinghai Star Domain, the Thorny Star Region.

Assisted by a large, short-distance Teleportation Star Gate, more than two million Starships of the Duchy's North Fleet had sequentially teleported here. This location marked the boundary between the Dinghai Star Domain and the Red River Star Domain and was also the starting point for the subsequent expeditions of the Duchy's North Fleet.

At the boundary battlefield between the Dinghai Star Domain and the Red River Star Domain, one could glance across the battlefield and see that the Heavenly Star Tribe had also gathered hundreds of thousands of a fleet, evidently having advance knowledge of the Yaohan Kingdom's conquest war.

However, this was doomed to be in vain. Before the Song Family's Prime Ancestor's Fearless Ship, plus the support of over two million Warships, the Heavenly Star Tribe's fleet could barely hold back the combined United Fleet of the Dinghai Star Domain.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Amidst the roaring of cannon fire, in less than a day, the entire fleet of the Heavenly Star Tribe was defeated, and the Dinghai United Fleet followed up with a pursuit deep into the Red River Star Domain.

At the forefront of the Tenth Direct Vein Fleet, Song Mingsong, Song Chi, and the four Song brothers of Shanhai Chaoyang were currently rapidly discussing in a private communication group.

"This is the situation, if we act alongside the family's several Fifth Rank Clan Elders, it will merely be considered a part of the family's joint operation, and all subsequent gains must yield 40% to the family. However, if our Direct Vein acts independently, we only need to hand over 10%."

After Song Shan, the eldest uncle, finished speaking, the communication group fell into a brief silence.

The two approaches were long-standing practices of the Song Family, going back not just for decades but centuries. There was nothing much to discuss. Now the decision to be made was, which of these two methods to choose?

Acting alongside the family Clan Elders was undoubtedly the safer route, but alas, half the gains had to be handed over.

Whereas choosing one's own targets and acting alone naturally bore greater risk, the gains would also be that much more substantial.

Regarding this, without waiting for their grandfather and the others to speak, Song Chi was the first to voice his opinion.

"Let's venture out on our own. With our current strength, taking down a few Third Level Floating Lands should be well within our capabilities!"

The truth was Song Chi wanted to claim a Fourth Level Floating Land, but unfortunately, the Red River Star Domain wasn't very large to begin with, boasting only one Fifth Level and two Fourth Level Floating Lands.

Of these, the Fifth Level Floating Land was certainly left to the Prime Ancestor. As for the two Fourth Level Floating Lands, one was a resource-type Floating Land, whose reserves were long divided up by fleets from various factions; the other, a Fourth Level life-form-type Floating Land, had been allocated to the Alpha Family and Wu Family, with no share for outsiders.

Nevertheless, it was fine. Although he himself didn't fear the Fourth Level Floating Land, the clansmen of the vein couldn't handle it. By comparison, a Third Level Floating Land was much simpler.

As for Song Chi's proposal, Song Mingsong and the others had no objections. They then took out the detailed Star Chart of the Red River Star Domain distributed by the family, and after identifying a Third Level life-form-type Floating Land named "Goat," the Tenth Direct Vein Fleet set off without any delay.

Of course, only a few Torch Warships were headed towards Goat Floating Land; ordinary Starships remained where they were.

Goat Floating Land was more than two hundred Light-Years from the Thorny Star Region. If those ordinary Starships were indeed to go there, by the time the entire conquest war was over, they probably still wouldn't have arrived.

As for setting up a Star Gate, that required time, and it wouldn't be so quick.

Goat Floating Land, as one of the Red River Star Domain's Third Level life-form-type Floating Lands, had more than ten billion inhabitants of the Heavenly Star Tribe. Additionally, the Floating Land Shield outside the Floating Land meant that even ordinary Fourth Rank Units would find it difficult to pose significant threats to the land in the short term.

But what they faced this time was none other than the Tenth Direct Vein Fleet of the Song Family, equipped with [Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong].

Like the previous approach to dealing with Lei Jie Floating Land, the answer needed no elaboration—the mere Third Level Floating Land Shield was easily ripped apart by the [Sky-breaking Spike], from point to plane, and even without the need for the Flame Giant to take action, the Floating Land Shield of Goat Floating Land completely shattered under the fire from thousands of Torch Warship cannons.

"Alright, Little Pool, you head over to the Heavenly Star Floating Island; this side with [Furious Battle Mad Lion] is enough!"

After breaking through the Floating Land Shield of Goat Floating Land, Grandpa Song Mingsong immediately spoke up.
