Chapter 480: The Problem Has Been Solved
Ninth Defense Zone Military Region.
After sending the Grey Knights onto the transport aircraft, Yingzhou went to the New Recruit Training Camp to check on the progress of the new recruits.
About half an hour later, the Task prompt indicated that his Task had been completed, and only then did Yingzhou return to Lu Zhenda's office.
Lu Zhenda looked at Yingzhou with a surprised expression and spoke in an astonished tone.
"Yingzhou, the Grey Knights you sent to the Bing Tuan 7 Hao Zhendi wiped out the Black-Winged Zerg that broke into the position, but how did you know there would be Black-Winged Zerg participating in this attack?"
Seeing Lu Zhenda's surprised look, Yingzhou revealed a faint smile at the corner of his mouth and replied in an easygoing tone.
"How could I? I just wanted to add an insurance policy for the 46th Legion side. Although our strength is gradually growing now, necessary insurance must still be added; we cannot give those Zerg any opportunity."
Upon hearing Yingzhou's words, Lu Zhenda nodded noncommittally and replied thoughtfully.
"Hmm, what you said does make sense. By the way, Yingzhou.
Besides the successful defense of the 46th Legion's No. 7 Position, the territories of the 45th and 47th Legions have also further expanded, and all Zerg Incubation Nests within the territories have been destroyed.
It can be said that we have won big this time."
Watching Lu Zhenda's somewhat excited appearance, Yingzhou waved his hand calmly and replied in a detached tone.
"What's the rush? Lao Lu, stay calm. There will be more and more things like this in the future; you need to get used to it in advance."
Hearing Yingzhou say this, Lu Zhenda couldn't help but shake his head and smile, saying to Yingzhou.
"Hahaha, isn't it just that I'm too happy?"
At this moment, Yingzhou saw that Horus's seat was empty, and he immediately felt suspicious and asked Lu Zhenda.
"Lao Lu, where is Horus?"
As soon as Lu Zhenda heard Yingzhou ask about Horus, he clapped his hands and said.
"Oh, right, I gave him a half-day off. After all, he is still so young; what's the point of him always acting like an adult? It just so happens that Yingxin's school is closed today, so I let Horus go home.
Moreover, I don't have much work on hand now; the rest is just some troop deployment matters, which I can handle alone."
Lu Zhenda was quite familiar with Yingzhou's family situation, and thus knew a fair amount about Yingxin's circumstances.
Up until now, Yingzhou's three sons had all been very attentive toward Yingxin.
Therefore, when he wasn't busy on his end, he would give Horus a break. However, Horus was very studious and rarely did other leisure activities, except for Yingxin.
It was as if accompanying Yingxin was also a very important matter to him.
After hearing Lu Zhenda's reply, Yingzhou nodded.
Ever since Horus arrived at the house, Yingxin had quickly gained a playmate who seemed to be of the same age—at least at the time.
However, due to the growth rate of a Primarch, Horus no longer looked like he was the same age as Yingxin, but this did not affect Horus's care for Yingxin in the slightest.
Yingzhou was well aware of his family's current situation. The three Primarchs grew up in vastly different environments. In his own home, with his mother, Yingxin, and Huang Xi acting as their emotional Anchor Points, they could possess more human emotions.
"At least Angron and Vulkan are successful. Horus... should be fine too. After all, the Emperor told me that time that his four old friends had been driven back by that person."
Yingzhou muttered to himself for a few moments, seeing Lu Zhenda start to look through the documents in his hand again, while he himself sat there, seeming somewhat out of place.
Just then, his System Panel suddenly popped up a notification.
【The War Dog Space Marines have encountered a massive energy attack from the Frost Clan. Please choose whether to provide assistance, Host.】
Yingzhou's originally relaxed expression turned grave after seeing this prompt.
Indeed, the Space Marines he had summoned did not include roles like Librarians or Apothecaries, so it was a bit tricky to deal with Spiritual Power-based attacks.
However, based on the current situation, the Frost Alien Race there should have already been forced to reveal their trump cards.
Hmm, let the War Dog Space Marines overcome the immediate difficulty first.
Yingzhou opened the map and saw 30 yellow light dots marked with the War Dog symbol flickering within the newly explored Extreme Cold Zone.
Yingzhou immediately said to the system in his heart.
"System, provide small-scale support to the 30 War Dog Space Marines. Provide maximum support without causing harm to their bodies."
【Connecting to 30 War Dog Space Marines, Faith Value points are being continuously consumed...】
【Connecting to War Dog Space Marine 1/30.】
【Connecting to War Dog Space Marine 2/30.】
【Connecting to War Dog...】
【Connection complete, beginning to consume Host's Faith Value points...】
Watching his Faith Value plummet, Yingzhou raised an eyebrow and complained inwardly.
Holy cow, Space Marines consume 20 times the Faith Value of mortals! It's a good thing I haven't really increased the Legion cap recently, otherwise this wouldn't be enough!
When it comes down to it, the population base is just too small; Faith Value can only be generated by local Humans.
Plus, providing support to 30 War Dog Space Marines all at once, the rate of Faith Value consumption is imaginable.
Just then, a burst of hurried footsteps approached. Since Lu Zhenda started pushing the front line, the office door had never been closed.
A messenger ran hurriedly into Lu Zhenda's office, saluted Lu Zhenda and Yingzhou, and spoke in a hurried tone.
"Report to the Emperor and Officer Lu, an emergency communication has been received from the 46th Legion's No. 7 Position."
"Speak!"
Upon hearing it was the 46th Legion's No. 7 Position, Lu Zhenda's expression tightened, and he spoke in a serious tone.
"The 46th Legion's No. 7 Position has repelled the Zerg attack and is currently clearing the battlefield.
But massive energy fluctuations have erupted from the Extreme Cold Zone, and even we can feel them clearly here!
Do we need to go and support the troops that entered the Extreme Cold Zone? Please instruct!"
Hearing this news, Lu Zhenda looked toward Yingzhou. The offensive into the Extreme Cold Zone was basically proposed by Yingzhou; now that such a situation had occurred in the Extreme Cold Zone, he didn't know if Yingzhou had a solution.
Sensing Lu Zhenda's gaze, Yingzhou clenched his right hand into a fist, coughed twice, and spoke in a serious tone.
"Cough, cough, it's fine, no need to worry about that. The problem over there has already been solved; I believe that energy should be dissipated very soon."
Seeing Yingzhou say this, Lu Zhenda showed no signs of worry and let the messenger leave.
Based on his understanding of Yingzhou, every single thing Yingzhou had done before seemed to have been resolved in the end; although he did not know how Yingzhou had managed it, he did not care.
