Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 526: 443 Re-entering the New Dust Realm

Nearly a month had passed. There had been significant changes in the situation of the New Dust Realm.

First, after the initial exploration by the Sky Patrol Department, a large number of Shining Star Level elites from the military had successively stationed there.

Secondly, several new entrances to the New Dust Realm had been added from Great Flame.

The increase in entrances had both pros and cons. The benefit was that it facilitated the exploration of the New Dust Realm, which not only contained star veins but also various high-level resources. The downside was that it would disperse forces.

Eventually, after selection, Great Flame finally established a total of four bases, one large and three small.

The large base No. 1 was at the two entrances first discovered.

Base No. 2 was the entrance earlier entered by Su Yuan, Yan Changming, and others.

Bases No. 3 and No. 4 were established at some of the newly emerged entrances later on.

The four bases, with base No. 1 at the center, were surrounded by the remaining three small bases, forming a defensive posture.

They could explore resources and search for star veins when advancing and support each other when retreating.

Now, Kaiyang Star Lord Li Ba and Tianji Star Lord Shen Die were at base No. 1.

The other three small bases also needed experts to hold the fort. This task was handed over to the three newly appointed Star Lords, including Su Yuan.

Su Yuan was assigned to base No. 4.

New Dust Realm, the teleportation entrance of base No. 4.

Several lieutenants from the army were as usual on duty.

At this time, the teleportation entrance glowed brighter and brighter.

“Hmm? Brother Yang, the entrance is lighting up.” A young lieutenant immediately noticed.

Yang Xingwang, a man in his thirties and the duty team leader, turned his head to look at the teleportation entrance.

“It really is… Strange, we didn’t receive any notice of a teleportation in advance. Moreover, the Sky Patrol Department said experts would arrive in a couple of days.”

As they discussed, the entrance flashed continuously, and five figures walked out.

“Back again, the air here is cleaner.” Baili Ge was in a good mood.

Fu Dongliu sighed, “Su Star Lord’s teleportation technique is truly impressive…”

“Are you from the Sky Patrol Department?” The young lieutenant asked as soon as he saw their uniforms.

“Star Lord?!” Brother Yang’s expression changed when he saw Su Yuan’s star robe, and he hurriedly stepped forward. “Eastern Military District, Lieutenant Yang Xingwang, at your service, Star Lord!”

The young lieutenant, upon hearing this, also looked at Su Yuan in surprise.

The surrounding military personnel quickly saluted as well.

Wasn’t it said that the experts would arrive in two days? Why did they come today as Star Lords?

Su Yuan nodded, “Hello, everyone. Patrol Department, Yu Heng Su Yuan, ordered to guard this base.”

Yang Xingwang said, “Su Star Lord, Captain Feng is in the camp; I will take you there.”

“Alright!”

Yang Xingwang instructed the young lieutenant, “Send a message to inform Captain Feng.”

“Yes!”

Outside the camp command post.

Feng Xiao, the military commander of base No. 4, with his vice officer and seven or eight lieutenant experts, waited there. Seeing Yang Xingwang leading Su Yuan and others, they all saluted in unison.

“Eastern Military District, Captain Feng Xiao, at your service, Star Lord Su.”

Su Yuan returned the salute, “Captain Feng.”

Feng Xiao examined the Star Lord in front of him. He felt a bit confused.

Though there were numerous young talents within the Sky Patrol Department, this Star Lord in front of him looked incredibly young and ordinary!

Apart from a pair of slightly extraordinary silver eyes, he looked just like a typical college student.

Whereas the others, Li Daoxun with his elegant demeanor, Fu Dongliu’s refined appearance, Yan Changming’s cold demeanor, Baili Ge…

Hmm… All had their distinct auras, more like Star Lords.

“Captain Feng, shall we discuss this inside?” Su Yuan reminded Captain Feng, seeing him momentarily lost in thought.

“Oh… Okay!” Realizing his lapse, Feng Xiao quickly invited, “Please, Star Lord Su.”

With Captain Feng’s welcome, Su Yuan and the others entered the command post of the camp.

“Captain Feng, what’s the current situation at base No. 4?” Su Yuan asked.

Captain Feng, in military attire, saluted before speaking, “At this base, we have over 120 Shining Star Level members. So far, we have harvested three wolf veins.

Aside from that, there’s another wolf vein in the southern swamp, but there are numerous formidable swamp star beasts there.

These star beasts can control the swamp, having a geographical advantage. During our last forced extraction, several people fell, including a lieutenant!”

In the military, ranks were also divided by military ranks.

Lieutenants corresponded to Shining Star.

Colonels to Radiant Moon.

Generals to Burning Sun.

And according to military merit accumulation, there were upper, middle, and lower levels.

For instance, Tang Jiao was a young lieutenant.

While someone like Captain Feng, with his rank, even rivaled some First Level Special Envoys.

The Sky Patrol Department hosted the densest concentration of experts. This did not mean other places lacked experts.

The military, academies, families, sects… All had top-tier experts in substantial numbers!

Captain Feng continued, “Additionally, a star vein is going to emerge in the west, where the earth qi is gathering.

However, it’s somewhat distant and near a Black Snow Country base. Recently, many Black Snow Country experts have occupied that area.”

As Captain Feng spoke, he also pointed out the location on a map for Su Yuan and the others.

Su Yuan thought for a moment, then said, “On the southern swamp side, Fu Dongliu, Baili Ge, you two go together and bring back the wolf vein. Can you do it?”

Fu Dongliu was a Water Element Star Card Master, and Baili Ge, a Sand Element, fitting for the swamp.

Baili Ge grinned, “No problem, leave it to us!”

Fu Dongliu also cupped his hands, “Rest assured, Star Lord.”

Su Yuan nodded, “There’s no time to lose. You two should set off immediately.”

“Yes!” They responded and left the camp, heading south.

“As for the emerging star vein in the west…” Su Yuan’s expression was calm. “Since it’s a star vein of the New Dust Realm, it’s unowned. There’s no concept of first come, first served.”

A wolf vein concerned several Radiant Moon positions. Naturally, it wasn’t something to be given up!

However, Captain Feng looked a bit worried, “Star Lord Su, the star vein is estimated to form within two or three days. It might be a bit rushed to reach there now.”

“No problem.”

Silver light flickered in Su Yuan’s hands as he reopened a Space Gate.

Captain Feng and the military personnel looked at the silver transmission gate curiously.

Su Yuan stood up, “Yan Changming, stay behind to guard the base. If there are any incidents, use the emergency talisman to send a signal. Li Daoxun, you come with me to the west.”

“Yes, Star Lord Su.” Both responded, and Li Daoxun followed behind Su Yuan.

Su Yuan walked to the Space Gate and looked at Captain Feng, “Captain Feng, please join us.”

“Yes, Star Lord!” Captain Feng responded without hesitation.

In terms of authority, Star Lords were far above captains, and Captain Feng had already been ordered to assist the incoming Sky Patrol Department experts at base No. 4.

Captain Feng instructed his vice officer, “Vice Officer Wang, assist Special Envoy Yan in guarding the base.”

Vice Officer Wang responded, “Understood.”

With that, Su Yuan led Li Daoxun and Captain Feng through the Space Gate, heading west…
