"Fan Ke Governor, they have succeeded? But why didn't this news come from their headquarters, the planet Oud-Mantel?" Rush-Clovis frowned.

He thought for a while and then found a reason for himself, "Okay... maybe Makito is fighting fiercely and the communication cannot be sent... that thing..."

Rush-Clovis took a deep breath, unable to suppress the excitement in his heart.

Yes, 'that thing'!

For Makito, 'that thing' means three goods: 1. All customer accounts and databases related to Makito. This thing cannot be transmitted over the Internet because it is very unsafe. Each customer's data is individually installed in a very strong and highly confidential memory, and is encapsulated with materials that cannot be destroyed even by a direct hit from the Turbolaser cannon. Of course, the amount involved for customers who can use this service can easily reach hundreds of millions.

2. The most valuable gemstone produced on Makito. Makito is a planet that produces gems. After thousands of years of mining, the value of some gems is simply difficult to measure in terms of money. If any of these gems are put up for auction, it can be sold for a sky-high price! For example, the famous Beauty's Shadow. When this gemstone is illuminated by different spectra, it will reflect the figures of beautiful women with different shapes and graceful bodies inside the gemstone. A Core Worlds family once offered 4 billion credit points, but InterGalactic Banking Clan flatly rejected the acquisition.

3. People!

If you go to a random planet other than Inner Rim and ask on the street where the headquarters of the InterGalactic Banking Clan is, then eight out of ten people will tell you that the headquarters is at Aargau. This is not surprising, because Aargau is indeed the administrative headquarters of the InterGalactic Banking Clan, and their senior officials all work in Aargau.

But if you ask Core Worlds within Inner Rim, you will get a completely different answer - Makito! This is where InterGalactic Banking Clan was actually incorporated, and on this beautiful frozen planet, there are those behind-the-scenes bosses who really control InterGalactic Banking Clan!

To put it simply, the people on Aargau are all social beasts, but the people who really control InterGalactic Banking Clan are all on Makito! And a little further away, the families of these people live in Muunilinst.

Therefore, the most valuable thing sent from Makito is people!

Those who control InterGalactic Banking Clan!

So why do Rush-Clovis ask Fan Ke to get these 'things' even at the cost of giving up an entire fleet!

Because the value of these 'things' is far greater than just one 8th Army!

Now there is news that it has been obtained and Scipio is on its way! How could this not make Rush-Clovis excited?

He doesn't expect to be able to take down all the InterGalactic Banking Clan executives on Makito, even if he only needs to catch Thorn Hill, it will all be worth it!

But despite being excited, he remained calm and immediately issued an order, "Notify the Planetary Defense Administration to raise Planetary Shield immediately! The local defense fleet is ready for battle!"

"Yes!"

The command is executed immediately.

Soon, a light blue light curtain enveloped the entire Scipio. At the same time, the defense fleets around the planet also left the space port and began to enter combat formations.

On the ground, there is also an army on standby, ready to receive this batch of precious cargo.

Everything is ready, just waiting for the last moment to come.

About half an hour later, a burst of white light flashed through the space, followed by dozens of spaceships appearing here.

12 Hunter Class Battlecruiser, 5 AA-9 large transport ships, and more than a dozen other small carrier spacecraft, some of which are obviously interstellar shuttles produced by the InterGalactic Banking Clan!

"Coming!" Rush-Clovis's heart beat violently, and he stared at the sensor screen.

Judging from the optical images sent back by the sensors, all 12 Hunter Class Battlecruiser ships were injured. To put it more seriously, they were in tatters. They indeed looked like they had come off the battlefield.

At this time, the communication was connected, and a man in his 40s wearing a Republic Navy military uniform appeared on the screen. He gave a military salute to Rush-Clovis and said, "I am Pritz, the adjutant of the Republic 8th Army Admiral of the Navy Longo. Admiral Longo is seriously injured. I am currently leading this fleet. I hope you will prepare medical facilities immediately."

"You captured Makito's escaped fleet? Then what did you get?!" Rush-Clovis asked eagerly.

"I have no interest in this! I only know that we killed tens of thousands of soldiers in this action that shouldn't have happened! The things are here now, and I don't care if you want them or not! Prepare medical facilities immediately!" The man named Pritz was rude to Rush-Clovis, and his words were full of the hostility and contempt of the soldiers towards capitalists like them.

Rush-Clovis felt very unhappy, but it also eliminated some of the last doubts, because Republic Army does have such strong bones. He curled his lips and thought to himself, no matter how much trouble you make, you are just a big-headed soldier. Now that you are like this, you probably haven't gotten married, right?

After you have a family and have the burden of a family, how about talking to those of us who control capital about the so-called respect?

He said calmly, "Okay, thank you for your hard work General Prinz. Next, please lower the shield of your warship and accept the scan of our defense fleet. I guarantee that you will get the best hospitality."

Pritz snorted coldly and cut off the communication without answering.

Bang! Rush-Clovis slapped the communicator to the ground. When had he ever been looked down upon like this!

Oh no, it seems there really is... isn't that guy Anakin from before? This guy not only stole my lover, but also embarrassed me!

Thinking of these things, Rush-Clovis's mood instantly became extremely bad.

In space, the two fleets have begun to dock. Scipio Defense Fleet began to move the warships closer and sent a message on the public channel, asking the defeated soldiers of Galactic Republic to lower their shields and accept the cargo bay scan.

Because they knew in advance that this trip was likely to be for the purpose of accepting trophies, and they saw that it was indeed the Galactic Republic battleship, the people in Scipio Defense Fleet were also very relaxed, and they calmly approached the ship.

However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred!!
