Chapter 20

Cannonballs of all sizes fell like raindrops to the Earth Earth.

The shells that burst into the atmosphere quickly burned.

It turned into a stream of light trailing a long tail flame.

Looking skyward from the ground of Planet Edith.

A rain of fire appeared in the sky.

orbital bombardment

Waaagh!

The appearance of a rain of fire in the sky irritated the orcs in the various farm towns.

The green-skinned orc looked at the sky with an excited face.

They wowed and rushed towards the giant anti-aircraft guns.

It's the little shrimp and big things that shoot them!

Just the sound of rumbling shelling.

The giant anti-aircraft guns in each farm town roared.

For a time, fires flickered in various farm towns.

A stream of fiery red light shot straight up into the sky.

Ah, I ... I don't want to go in there!

There are also a large number of fart missiles erected in the farm towns.

The Techno-Boy harrumphed and shoved the butthole into the cockpit of the missile.

Then, I welded the hatch shut.

Ah!

Just as the farts screamed, a huge missile rushed into the sky.

As the fart missile rose into the air, the fart screams faded into yells of excitement.

Waaagh!

The butthole in the cockpit yelled in excitement.

It found joy in its final moments.

It's enjoying the moment immensely.

It's about to find the enemy and give them a big shot.

Just as the green-skinned orcs fired back.

A rain of fire fell into the EarthEarth.

Boom!

The Earth Earth flickered with fire for hundreds of kilometers around.

A huge mushroom cloud of flames rose up.

Each shell has the power of a small-yield nuclear bomb.

The dazzling mushroom cloud of flames rushed up a thousand meters into the air.

The hot flames formed a wave of fire that swept around.

Wherever it passes, everything goes up in smoke.

A large number of farm towns went up in smoke to the joyous roar of the green-skinned orcs.

Meanwhile, the Imperial Navy fleet was under attack in orbit.

A stream of fiery red light rose from the atmosphere.

Cannonballs and Butthole missiles headed straight for the Imperial Navy fleet.

A large number of shells fell short and flew into the depths of the universe.

However, some of the shells also hit ships in the Imperial Navy fleet.

The void shields of a battleship suddenly rippled.

It's just as Lucan said it would be.

The air defense fire at the landing site is relatively weak.

Although the Imperial Navy fleet was attacked by fire from the ground.

But that little bit of firepower wasn't enough to paralyze the Void Shield.

Waaagh!

A missile blasted into the void shield at the sound of the fart's excited roar.

In the planet's low orbit, the fleet sailed seemingly slowly.

From time to time, the macro cannons flickered with fire as if they were stars falling to the EarthEarth.

And the ground shone with one ball of light after another.

It was the glow from the exploding mushroom cloud of flame.

Planet Edith.

Correia City, upper level of the Governor's Tower.

That's good. Let me have a good time.

Standing in front of the window, Jack Wow laughed out loud.

A meteor shower fell from the distant sky.

It's a bit far away, though, and you can only see the flickering fire.

But Jack knew what was going on over there.

Humanity's Imperial Navy fleet is engaged in orbital bombardment.

How many orcs are on the planet Edith today? Even Jack doesn't know.

But Jack is sure his boys will be able to fight a very long battle with the humans.

It took a while for the loud laughter in the room to die down.

Jack turned away from the window, striding out the door.

Eloisa had been in the room with a group of noble slaves.

In order to survive, they put aside their dignity to serve the huge orc.

It wasn't until the orc had left the room that they hurried to the window.

That's great. Imperial support must have arrived!

Is it true?

That must be it!

We will be saved, for sure.

The arrival of imperial reinforcements made the noblewomen weep with joy.

Eloisa was the only one who looked at the far side of the sky with a calm face.

What if Imperial support arrived on Edith?

This does not mean that the Empire will capture the ultimate victory.

Perhaps the Empire can gain the ultimate victory.

But that would probably end with everything on Edith going up in smoke.

Being the husband of a former Starsector soldier has taught Eloisa a lot of things that regular people don't know.

The Empire never pities the worthless.

And the women were undoubtedly worthless in the eyes of the Empire.

Eloisa turned away from the window.

The day had only just begun, and she had so much to do.

Sisters, it's time to work!

Work? Eloisa, are you out of your mind? Look out there, look out there carefully. The Empire will soon recover the planet Edith, and we will be truly free!

A noblewoman in front of the window yelled at Eloisa with some insanity.

She looked at Eloisa with a scowl on her face.

She seemed angry, very angry.

Eloisa stopped in her tracks.

Turned to look expressionlessly at the noblewoman at the window.

This is the Viceroy's Tower, the Viceroy's Tower occupied by the Orcs, and let's not forget what kind of situation we are in; as long as the Viceroy's Tower has not been retaken by the Empire, we must do what we have to do!

With those words, Eloisa turned around and continued to walk out the door.

The other noblewomen looked at each other in dismay and hurried out of the room.

Anyone who was there understood that their situation would not change with the arrival of Imperial reinforcements.

They must wait, they must wait patiently.

Only when the Empire recaptures the Governor's Tower will they be free.

Until then, they must live.

Planet Edith.

Planetary low-orbit space, Imperial Navy fleet.

Flagship, in the bridge.

Lord Lieutenant General Lucan has destroyed 90% of the air defenses in the area of the landing site!

Standing in front of the viewport, Lucarn looked out at the planet Edith with a calm face.

The agricultural world is not exactly a beautiful environment, though.

But it's also more beautiful than most Empire worlds.

The atmosphere is wrapped in a halo of light reflected by the light of the stars.

Immediately cease orbital bombardment, notify the transport fleet, and begin landing operations immediately!

Is!

At Lucan's command, the Imperial Navy fleet ceased its orbital bombardment.

Shortly afterward, movement from the transport fleet parked and floating in high orbital space occurred.

Ships of all sizes opened the gates of the Gnarco.

A landing craft flew out of the gate straight into the atmosphere.

Landing ships come in all sizes, from ships that are a hundred meters long to ships that are two hundred meters long.

Within moments, another rain of fire swept across the skies of Planet Edith.

Dozens of large fireballs swept vastly through the sky.

The light that shone reddened the sky.

It took several minutes for the glittering fireballs in the sky to disappear.

The engines roared over some plowed plain.

A huge landing craft fell from the sky.

The belly-reverse thrust engine spewed out a dazzling tail flame.

Landing ship after landing, the ship slowly landed over a large area of a hundred kilometers in circumference.
