Free Web NovelChapter 1725: Chapter 980: Part 2
Even if there might be collateral damage, if it’s for the ultimate victory, such sacrifices are inevitable.
However, even this won’t do.
Those traitors, choosing this critical moment, to backstab so decisively in this manner, isn’t their purpose just to completely derail the negotiations between the Expeditionary Force and the Solar Fleet?
Sending brainless, indiscriminate attacks against all ships of the Solar Fleet, would surely be falling into the enemy’s desired situation.
In this way, the Terra Expeditionary Army ships can only choose self-preservation, maximizing all defensive equipment and propulsion engines, and retreat at full speed.
Disengage first, then talk about the rest later. freewebnoveℓ.com
...
Chaos is only temporary, Galaraldo himself knows.
Even if the negotiations between the Expeditionary Force and the Solar Fleet are sabotaged on the spot, as long as the Expeditionary Force hasn’t fallen into the dire situation of treating all ships as enemies, misunderstandings can eventually be resolved.
What a pity, it’s because Robert arrived too early, too swiftly.
If given more time, perhaps he could really acquire control of the entire Solar Fleet. freēwēbnovel.com
In that case, there would be no need to engineer so many things. In the lunar war, with superior naval forces, a bigger trap could be set to completely bury Robert on the moon.
At present, the corrupted ships in Galaraldo’s hands only include slightly over twenty percent of the Solar Fleet.
During the previous chaos, a large number of ships were confused or deceived due to miscommunication.
Once they re-evaluate, attempting such a maneuver again would be very difficult.
Moreover, those twenty percent of ships under his control would gradually be identified due to the prior events. And once exposed, with external reinforcement from Robert’s fleet, they might soon be cleansed.
However, it doesn’t matter now.
The goal of this operation was merely to buy time.
With the Solar Fleet destined to be acquired by Robert and the Imperial Guard clearly siding with the opposition, Robert smoothly leading his Expeditionary Force to take over Holy Terra is inevitable.
So what is the point of those other people making so much fuss?
Yet, this is precisely what Galaraldo absolutely refuses to see.
Robert is merely a running dog of Gu Hang.
That liar is too adept at deception. Galaraldo absolutely does not want him to easily control Holy Terra!
Speaking of this matter, we must go back a hundred years.
That was when he first met Gu Hang.
Their first encounter was definitely not pleasant. He was the Apostle of War, sleuthing around for the Sun Lord’s expedition; Gu Hang was a Planetary Governor who hadn’t fully gained control of his planet. He wanted to squeeze money from Gu Hang, as an extra tax.
It was indeed a small sum, but it was this small sum that incited such malice in Gu Hang towards him.
During Chaos’s invasion of Nest Capital World Korogia, he fell into Subspace and nearly died there.
He was saved by Gu Hang, and he was grateful to him. Despite initially pressuring Gu Hang, Gu Hang ended up saving him!
He wasn’t one to necessarily repay kindness—he understood himself. But with Gu Hang, he made an exception.
Arriving at Holy Terra, he rose through the ranks while constantly fighting for benefits for his brother far away in the Imperial’s Eastern Frontier...
However, when he realized that the peril he faced when falling into Subspace was partly due to Gu Hang’s meddling, he felt sheer disgust recalling the help he’d given Gu Hang!
That deceiver trapped him in Subspace; pretended to rescue him while in reality implanting a Spiritual Seed within him, controlling and altering his thoughts, making him the slave of that liar!
Truly despicable!
Galaraldo suddenly remembered everything during a nap in the tenth year of the Cataclysm.
Was this his own awakening?
He suspected it wasn’t.
Objectively speaking, Gu Hang is a Spiritual Master, while he was virtually none in this domain. Without external influence, it was almost impossible for him to remember the truth on his own.
There must have been some external force influencing him.
But he doesn’t care.
He is sure what he remembered is indeed the truth, not another implanted, fabricated memory.
Because... he knows himself, he’s definitely not the kind to repay kindness. Even if Gu Hang truly saved him, given his character, it’s more likely he’d be ungrateful, rather than going out of his way to help Gu Hang in later years.
He detests this deception, loathes that his self-assumed prosperity was under Gu Hang’s manipulation all these years!
He absolutely refuses to accept this reality, his ultimate objective is revenge.
For revenge, he is willing to pay a great price.
Moreover, it’s now cosmic chaos! A once-in-a-millennium grand upheaval!
In such a scenario, rising with the tide, wielding power and influence, and achieving greatness is precisely what he must do!
And that goal aligns perfectly with his quest for vengeance.
He gazes into the mirror, repeatedly calling out the name of the great entity that awakened him, freeing him from the deception.
Suddenly, he sees himself in the mirror with nine eyes gradually opening on his forehead, face, neck, and chest...
He hears a holy voice, containing supreme truth and endless knowledge.
