Chapter 82
After a moment of thought, Neptune chose to compromise, "If you must go, make a plan first. Otherwise, I won't tell you where Robert is."
"The information we have right now is very patchy. All we know now is that the Army sent two generals, three colonel generals, and at least four major generals. As for the number of lower-ranking officers, such as senior colonels, we have no idea." Liliath listed the information that they currently knew, "We don't know who these people are or what their abilities are."
"But from the encounter with Senior, it seems like they already know everything about us." Gu Ding added, "And it seems like no matter where we go, we'll have their cronies following us around, keeping an eye on us."
"Don't worry too much about the guys following you. I can make sure they don't notice the two of you leaving." Neptune was not worried about that issue and he proceeded to drop another surprising bomb on the two of them. "I've already got a list of the people who came to Planet Constlac."
"Didn't you tell me that that information was impossible to find?" Gu Ding said when he found out Neptune had been keeping something from them.
"It's true that I wasn't able to find anything regarding this name list. I used other means to find out who was on the list." Neptune's intention was not to hide anything. "I didn't tell you guys before this because you guys weren't planning to be involved in this mess. If I told you, it'd just create unnecessary worry."
"In fact, the two of you weren't the only ones starport has been monitoring. Almost every Interstellar Pirates that is somewhat famous has been monitored. I was able to get the faces of the people who were monitoring you guys through the monitors to find their information. Based on their organizational chart, I was able to trace their superiors, and then their superiors' superiors, as well as all various other direct and indirect relations.h.i.+ps. For example, I found intel on their relatives, who were in their cla.s.ses during military college. After compiling the list, I compared and cross-referenced the list with the Army's current task checklist. Through doing that I was able to get a shortened, more accurate list of names." Neptune projected the name list that he compiled. Indeed, he had spent a lot of time putting together the list.

When Gu Ding saw the breakdown of information on the two generals, he did not feel
Sharp, on the other hand, was a legend. He was the first swordsman in Dragon Soar Cosmic Nation. Achieving a Level 10 Gene Body without awakening any abilities. That was why he was able to devote his mind fully to swordsmans.h.i.+p and his combat skills established him as one of the strongest among the four generals.
Gu Ding then looked at the other's information.
None of the three colonel generals were like he had ever seen. All of them were top Level 8 Gene Body fighters. Neptune was not too sure of the number of major generals selected so he estimated that there were six Level 8 Gene Body powerhouses.
As for the senior colonels discovered by Neptune from the starport, there were twelve of them. All of their strengths were on par with Senior. Their current task was only to monitor the movements of Interstellar Pirates. It seemed that their ranks were not high enough to be partic.i.p.ating in the core parts of the mission. Neptune also added several people who might happen to appear on the planet into the name list.
When Gu Ding and Liliath saw the name list, their hearts felt a little heavy.
There were more than thirty people in the name list provided by Neptune and all of them were more than capable of killing both Gu Ding and Liliath.
"What should we do?" Liliath bit her lower lip and she looked a little dazed. She could not figure out a way they could escape the predicament they found themselves in, let alone save someone.
"First of all, we must avoid the people who are monitoring us and leave the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p undetected. If the people monitoring us spot any movement, they will notify their superiors who will deploy units to intercept us." Gu Ding meticulously thought out a plan.
"That won't be too difficult. I can create an opportunity that will divert their attention away from monitoring you so you guys will have a chance to slip away." Neptune told them the corresponding strategy.
"Then the only thing left to do is to head to Robert's destination from the starport. But we can't let the people from the Army find us either. Otherwise, we'll also be stopped from reaching our destination." Gu Ding was more worried about that half of the journey. "On that road, there will unquestionably be people sent by the Army to guard the place. Additionally, it's more than likely that it'll be guarded by a major general rank powerhouse."
"Yesterday, I managed to bypa.s.s the planet's network blockade and spread the news of the superweapons. At the same time, I've also shared the Army name list that I made. I believe that by today, there'll be proper powerhouses of various abilities rus.h.i.+ng over to this planet. We'll wait for nightfall before we start moving. I believe the people from the Army will be very busy then, and they'll have no time to care about us."
"But will Robert last till then?" Gu Ding worried.
"When you just made up your mind to go just now, I contacted Robert so that synchronize our movement with his. In doing so, the success rate will be much higher. I've successfully convinced him to hide for the time being." Neptune seemed to have planned the entire thing out perfectly.
"However, the hardest step is the last one. How are we supposed to destroy three superweapons right under the nose of two generals and three colonel generals?" Gu Ding's eyebrows furrowed. The thing that gave him a headache was the combat strength disparity between them and the people from the Army. Another reason for his headache was that they were going to fight five people. No matter what happened, it was impossible for all five of them to leave the superweapon excavation site. Even if a single person were left to guard the place, they would not stand a chance against them. "The Army probably already informed them about you spreading the information, which would only make them more alert."
"On the contrary, the last step will be the simplest. The Federation Government weren't the only people who got news of the superweapon, other forces have gotten it too. There will definitely be powerhouses just as strong as the generals. They'll be the ones dealing with the Army's powerhouses." Neptune was a calm, collected player who had made full use of the information he received. "This war in Planet Constlac is destined to be a great war that will be acknowledged by future generations for thousands of years to come."
