Starting from the Planetary Governor

Interstellar warriors of Storm Squad didn't have the capability to infiltrate the enemy's main base. After all, without the conditions for disguised reconnaissance, cross-species exploration can only go so far.

But it was enough.

They marked the location of the Green-Skin main base, their munitions factory, and then in the surrounding area, they found three large-scale breeding farms. Those huge, tropical plant-like things had grown sturdily amidst the urban ruins.

Just as Matins had told Gu Hang before, this was definitely not an ideal place for the Green Skin Orcs to breed and thrive. Even though these Greens Skins had tried their best to clear a relatively flat area, exposing the soil and diverting waterflows as much as possible, the soil was unsuitable, the light insufficient, and the water resources not abundant enough...

The Green Skins were resilient enough to grow in such an environment, breeding one batch after another.

It was now the 'harvesting' season for the Green Skin plants. They saw with their own eyes, under the lights, the crooked plants with huge seed pods hanging down, something seemed to be wriggling inside, and then suddenly, the pods opened, and a Green Skin creature would fall out.

Such a process kept happening before their eyes.

Most of the time, the creatures that fell out were of varying sizes but similar in form to beasts.

These creatures, known as Skuggs, were a domesticated livestock bred by the Orc herders and had always been part of the Green Skin tribes. These creatures lacked intelligence and were vicious by nature, with sharp teeth and mouths that could open exaggeratedly wide. In fact, in the Green Skins' ecosystem, they served the role of livestock.

Some were used for grooming, some for food, some raised by the Orc kids as pets, and the largest ones could even be ridden into battle.

These Skuggs fed on various kinds of trash.

Skuggs ate what the Orcs wouldn't, and the Orcs ate Skuggs in return.

They, along with fungi, were a major food source for the Orcs.

Besides the Skugg Beasts, the second most numerous were the 'fart spirits.'

They were the Orcs' servants, cannon fodder, and also a source of food when necessary.

And fewer in number were the regular Green Skin Orcs.

Whether Skugg Beasts, 'fart spirits,' or Orcs, all of them were in an adult state the moment they hit the ground.

This breeding farm was indeed in its harvest season.

If the three breeding farms they found operated with such efficiency and completed their incubation, there would probably be an additional twenty thousand Green Skin Orcs and at least fifty or sixty thousand 'fart spirits' within a month.

Matins was grateful that he had seriously warned Gu Hang of the risks involved and was relieved that Gu Hang heeded his warning, not ignoring the threat.

Otherwise, they would have been in big trouble.

What followed was relatively simple.

It was just a matter of marking the coordinates.

They couldn't be very precise because they were still some distance away from their targets when marking them. Even at that distance, they encountered Green Skins a few times but silently took them out.

Given the disciplinary standards of the Green Skins, losing a few individuals likely wouldn't be noticed—they lose plenty every day just from their internal brawls and revelry.

But even if the markings weren't exactly precise, it didn't matter much. An approximate location would suffice. The Colossal Cannon's area of impact was still very large.

A 'scalpel' missile could almost destroy a small wind farm, not to mention the far more powerful Colossal Cannon and the Wrath of Loyalty, a large-scale Colossal Cannon.

Of course, to increase efficiency, they still assigned different value levels to these places.

The two highest value points were the main base and the departure position where the Green-Skin Army was gathering.

The next priorities were the munitions factory, the breeding farms, and the locations within the Green-Skin Army where the killing jars were positioned. Then, they marked a bunch of places that they couldn't explore thoroughly but suspected were of value.

After completing these tasks, they moved away from the Green Skin main base and then notified Mr. Gu.

Soon after, they received a reply from the governor:

"Leave the area as soon as possible, you have 14 hours to get out of the orbital strike's range. Please ensure your safety, and after the orbital strike is over, confirm the results of the strike."

"Received."

"You've worked hard."

...

After replying to the special task force's message, Gu Hang let out a deep breath.

All preparations were finally complete.

He contacted Yelisia again, provided the relevant strike coordinates, and informed the female colonel that all actions were proceeding as planned.

The orbital strike would arrive as scheduled at 11:00 Terra standard time the next day.

His troops would complete their pre-battle preparations before then, eating a good meal, and after the orbital bombardment ended, they would launch an attack against the enemy in front.

The Green Skin Orc front with which they were faced would not be subjected to overly intense bombardment, only a few 'scalpel' missiles would precisely hit several key points, the Colossal Cannon would not strike here.

The main reason was that the power of the Colossal Cannon was too great, its coverage too broad, and its precision, compared to 'scalpel' missiles, was less reliable. A slight deviation and it could easily cover their own positions as well.

It was better to use a few 'scalpel' blasts, and then leave the rest to their own troops.
