Chapter 997: Decision

Facing Emperor Frederick's answer, Bisimai was stunned for a moment.

As the planner of the entire experimental field, she knows what is inside the experimental field. Moreover, up to now, only she, Emperor Frederick, and Qin Ge know about that thing.

Originally, when leaving the experimental field, she had already told Emperor Frederick that thing could only be activated at the time of the final decisive battle; therefore, the disease is the battle situation very tense, Emperor Frederick, instead of participating in combat, remained stationed in the experimental field to prevent any issues there.

But now Emperor Frederick actually appears here, and hearing her say she is here under Qin Ge's orders, it seems Emperor Frederick hasn't noticed anything; on the contrary, has their commander already decided to proceed with the decisive battle?

But now the B Sea Zone fortress hasn't been captured, the entire sea zone isn't fully controlled, is their commander now preparing to finish things?

Seeing Bisimai's puzzled expression, Emperor Frederick smiled and said, "You'll know when the time comes."

"Alright." Bisimai didn't ask further, but stood there waiting for Qin Ge to finish handling the matter at hand.

Of course, at this moment not only Bisimai but also several others have some doubts. Regarding Emperor Frederick not participating in battle earlier, they learned from Qin Ge that Emperor Frederick has a special mission.

Now that Emperor Frederick has appeared here, does this mean their commander is preparing to take action? Moreover, regarding what special mission Emperor Frederick is carrying out, if they said they weren't curious, that would be impossible.

However, Qin Ge didn't elaborate back then, so they didn't ask further.

As everyone exchanged greetings, the command hall fell into a brief quiet environment.

However, this quiet didn't last long; as Qin Ge and the monk's documents came into view, after letting out a long sigh, this quiet was broken.

"Heh, it seems everyone is here." Qin Ge stood up, looked at the ship girls beside him and smiled, saying, "You've worked hard; it's precisely because of your fighting over this period that we can now be here, deciding the final direction of this great war."

"So, commander, what exactly is the matter?" Bisimai asked.

The other ship girls also turned their gazes toward Qin Ge, waiting for his answer.

"From the moment we entered this sea zone until now, we have already captured three sea zone fortresses, and the last sea zone fortress is about to be formally captured by us."

"I don't think we will fail to capture that Siren fortress with our current strength, and with Yujin and the others jointly restraining it, the fourth Siren fortress, which seems the hardest to capture, might actually be much easier than the previous ones."

"Therefore, given this situation, I plan to, after capturing the last Siren fortress, not pause to rest but instead press forward in one go into the final sea zone!" Qin Ge said.

Upon hearing Qin Ge's words, several ship girls exchanged glances, their eyes revealing that it was indeed so.

Although there had been some speculation before, that was merely speculation; in such a situation, only after Qin Ge personally confirms it can we be certain.

"According to the commander's idea, capturing the last sea zone fortress will indeed be somewhat easier than before. After all, from the very start, our fleet has been fighting on two fronts, with numbers never being complete."

Moreover, due to some reasons for capturing sea zones, our strength has always been deficient. Now, after joining forces, our main strength has all gathered together, and it includes Yujin's strength.

Under these conditions, as long as the final arbiter Enprey does not greatly exceed the strength of Hermit and the others, we can smoothly take this sea zone.

However, this is merely a judgment based on current information. Things won't go as smoothly as we think; if other variables arise, what should we do?

I am not vetoing the commander's idea, but if we defeat Enprey and ourselves also suffer heavy losses, what do we do if we lack the strength to continue advancing into the depths of the sea zone?

Or, if Enprey's strength is great and our attacks are thwarted, what then? These issues all need to be considered; I believe the commander certainly wouldn't overlook them, right?" Bisimai asked.

Others nodded in agreement; although the previous captures have looked relatively smooth so far, they harbor no sense of complacency, for the Sirens may have displayed far more power than shown up to now.

If they act rashly and underestimate the enemy, the possible consequences could be beyond what they can bear.

"These you just mentioned, I have already considered them all, and I also have fairly sufficient reasons." Qin Ge smiled at Bisimai, then seemed to explain her doubts, but in fact was speaking for everyone to hear.

"Feilong and them have more knowledge of the arbiters than we do; I can obtain more detailed information from them. The arbiter Enprey is relatively stronger than Hermit and them."

However, under the combined attack of Hermit and the three, Enprey would appear somewhat weaker. This is precisely because the arbiters, while individually formidable, become even more formidable when linked together.

Actually, you have experienced this situation before in the Atlantic Ocean sea zone, so it shouldn't be unfamiliar.

But now the Sirens have separated them and placed them in four sea zones; this is clearly to probe our strength, or rather another kind of experiment and test.

I believe that after you have experienced these three sea zones, you must also have some understanding of them. This is also why, when Yujin and them followed you in battle, their main role was restraint, without using too many offensive means.

And the current situation shows that you have clearly passed this experiment and test; although the fourth Siren fortress hasn't been captured yet, that is merely a matter of time.

However, this battle has lasted somewhat long; given our current energy, I believe we already possess the power to end this battle.

So I don't want to wait any longer; the capture of the fourth sea zone will proceed as usual. Afterward, we will take Yujin's strength and our elite forces as the main body, with other still-mobile ships as auxiliaries, directly advancing to capture the Siren core.

Although such action seems risky, it is far better than allowing those arbiters we previously defeated to fully recover and then wage an endless war.

Furthermore, according to intelligence sent by the Northern Union, the Sirens' core sea zone has already begun to move; they are very likely to launch a counterattack when we attack the final sea zone.

This is why I have gathered you; regardless of whether we are willing or take the initiative, the final decisive battle is already very near.

Rather than falling into passivity like this, it would be better to start making proactive decisions now, staking everything on this single action.

Upon hearing Qin Ge finish speaking, everyone suddenly understood; combining their prior knowledge with the documents Qin Ge had held earlier, they could also comprehend why Qin Ge made such a decision.
