In the future, his fleet would constantly expand, and at that time, there would definitely be a shortage of troops.

There was also a significant shortage of technical personnel for auxiliary Starships, such as the T2 Iron Hammer-class Heavy Interstellar Industrial Ship and the T3 Andromeda-class Interstellar Medical Ship.

With this T3 Goddess Academy-class starship, all these problems would be solved.

After all, it was impossible to always rely on buying ready-made slaves as a way to supplement troops.

This method was unstable, and the quality of the troops varied.

“Commander, our combat report for this battle has been compiled.” Lilith’s words brought Zhao Chen back from his thoughts.

“Tell me.” Zhao Chen looked at Lilith.

Lilith raised her hand, displaying a data panel in front of Zhao Chen, which detailed the damage to the T3 Blizzard-class Light Interstellar Battlecruiser and their battle losses in this battle.

“All fifty Blizzard Interstellar Drones were destroyed, and fifty Blizzard Light Interstellar Missiles were completely expended.

One-quarter of the seventy-two medium-range defense cannons suffered varying degrees of damage.

Four of the sixteen medium pulse laser secondary cannons were damaged in previous battles.

One of the four 2500mm caliber medium electromagnetic cannon main guns had a minor circuit problem.

The Blizzard-class Heavy Clustered Laser Ship’s bow cannon was operating well.

Star Shield energy remaining: 29%.

Our Star Shield system, under normal conditions of regular navigation and sufficient Starship energy, can recover on its own within 48 hours, or accelerate recovery inside a T2 Iron Hammer or a Starport.

Total Starship energy remaining: 31%, ammunition and supplies remaining: 35%, the most consumed was the ammunition for the close-range defense cannons, which were almost completely depleted.

The remaining resources are more than enough to return to the North Star System.

If we were to fight another battle, then it would be uncertain.

The overall damage to the hull armor reached 47%, with the most severely damaged area reaching 80%.

The main Starship frame structure strength was not affected at all, and no crew members were injured.”

Zhao Chen chuckled, patting the armrest of the captain’s chair: “Our T3 Blizzard’s first battle was quite exciting.”

“But this also demonstrates the T3 Blizzard’s practical combat capability.” Charlotte said excitedly from the side, her eyes gleaming: “The speed of this Interstellar Battleship goes without saying; it has no rivals among T3-series Starships.

In terms of combat power, it has far surpassed the Interstellar Battlecruiser class and can even be placed among Interstellar Battleships without any problem.

Although it is a light Interstellar Battleship, I think it is more like a medium Interstellar Battleship.”

It was clear that Charlotte really liked this T3 Blizzard.

When she praised it, her tail behind her kept wagging.

“In this battle, the T3 Blizzard destroyed one T3 Insectoid Hive Mothership, severely damaged one T3 Insectoid Hive Mothership, destroyed four T2 Zerg Hive Motherships, and several T1 Zerg Hive Motherships.

The number of Zerg units killed is initially estimated to be nearly a million, of course, over ninety percent of them are low-level Zerg units like T1 Flying Bugs.” Lilith also stated the enemy annihilation data for this time.

Zhao Chen said with a wry smile, “Those were all pure star coins, but unfortunately, given the situation at the time, we couldn’t bring back the corpses of those bugs.”

Putting everything else aside, just the corpse of that T3 Insectoid Hive Mothership, even though it was blown to pieces and poorly preserved.

It was roughly estimated to be worth several million star coins.

It was enough for Zhao Chen to build another T2-class Starship.

“At the current speed, how long will it take to get out of the dangerous area controlled by the Interstellar Insectoids?” Zhao Chen asked.

“It will probably take about half an hour.” Lilith replied.

Zhao Chen nodded: “Once we’re out of the dangerous area controlled by the Interstellar Insectoids, there’s no need to rush to leave. First, we’ll cruise at a normal speed, and then everyone can rest well.

We’ve been rushing before, and coupled with this high-intensity battle, everyone is very tired.”

“Yes.” Lilith noted it down.

They were in a hurry when they came, but now that the matter was settled, there was no need to rush back.

In the hangar,

The teachers and students of the Two Academies gradually calmed down from the initial joy of escaping death, and everyone sat scattered in the corners.

At this moment, a student from Tianyao Noble Starship Military Academy walked towards the hangar door.

“Stop, it’s our Commander’s order. Your activity is limited to this area.” A crew member, holding a Laser Gun, blocked the path of the Tianyao Noble Starship Military Academy student.

“Hey, are you kidding me! We’ve been here for over an hour.

Don’t even talk about food and drinks, you haven’t even given us a single chair.

We are students of Tianyao Noble Starship Military Academy, not prisoners, okay? At least arrange a comfortable room for us!

My butt hurts sitting on this floor!” A male student said arrogantly.

This male student came from a prominent family background and was used to being arrogant in the academy. He had been terrified and panicked by the bugs before, but now that he was safe, his inherent arrogance resurfaced.

“Our Commander has ordered that none of you are allowed to leave this hangar!” The female crew member said firmly.

“I said, why are you so stubborn! My father is a Count, and I will be a Count in the future.

Why do you think your Commander came all this way to save us? Isn’t it because he wants to curry favor with us nobles!

All you Half-Beastman crew members, get out of my way! You should know that in our territory, you low-class Half-Beastmans don't even have the right to breathe the same air as me.

Pfft.” The male student disdainfully spat on the ground and then made a move to force his way through the hangar door.

The female crew member gripped her Laser Gun tightly, but hesitated to fire, because she didn’t know if offending this noble student would cause trouble for Commander.

She didn’t care about being insulted; she cared about Commander, who took care of their lives.

Although the other teachers and students present were annoyed by the male student’s attitude, they didn’t say anything because of his family background and status; they were all nobles, and no one wanted to offend anyone without reason.

“Hey! This is their Starship, and on their Starship, you have to follow their rules.

Don’t forget, if it weren’t for these brave Half-Beastman crew members, you’d still be feeding bugs on that planet!” Chu Xuan stepped forward to speak up for the Half-Beastman female crew member.

“Who are you anyway! I’m telling you, my father is a Count...” The male student hadn’t even finished speaking when a hand reached in from outside the hangar hatch and pressed directly onto the male student’s head.

Then, there was a loud bang.

The male student’s head made intimate contact with the ground, blood splattered, and teeth flew out.

“What are you blabbering about on my Starship?” Zhao Chen squatted down, looking coldly at this so-called son of a Count.
