Upon receiving the message relayed by the drone, Lorraine was momentarily speechless.
The good news is that the separation of daughter bodies has had a significant impact on it.
The bad news is that, in its current state, it can easily destroy a 3000-ton frigate.
Lorraine scratched his head and made the decision to split up.
Lorraine led the flagship and transport ships to the amphibious assault group on the sea to conduct a boarding operation.
Bai Jin, Ouyang Nian, and Lin Shu, along with their robotic dogs, searched for Red Peak Island.
Lorraine then pulled the other three into the communication channel and sent them information about the overlord.
"Judging from the current situation, this overlord has entered a weakened state for some reason. Combined with the logs found at the naval base, it can now be confirmed that this overlord does indeed possess extremely strong offensive capabilities."
"Since we don't know how long this overlord's weakened state will last, or what changes it will undergo afterward, we need to hurry up and kill it."
Seeing that none of the three raised any objections, Lorraine released Cleveland's calculation results.
"Based on the available information, we need to launch at least eight torpedoes simultaneously to ensure that one of them hits the Overlord."
"Our existing three warships are insufficient to withstand the attack of this overlord. To ensure our safety, we need more warships to launch a large number of torpedoes from different directions."
"To achieve this goal, we need to split into two groups."
"Bai Jin, you will lead the Pivot Squad to protect Ouyang Nian and Lin Shu as they complete their exploration mission on Red Peak Island."
"I took Tengu and Diting with me to search for information about the amphibious assault group stationed here."
"clear."
"My sister and I are fine."
"Then I'll go first."
Lorraine hung up the communication, and the flagship then accelerated to 45 knots and sped towards Red Peak Island.
An hour later, the test aircraft, carrying 30 anti-tank loitering munitions, left the deck and flew towards Hongfeng Island.
Ten minutes later, the verification aircraft arrived above the pier of the Hongfeng Island military base.
After two minutes of reconnaissance, the verification aircraft did not find any suspicious heat sources on the dock. The aircraft then left the dock and began to investigate the situation inside the military base.
To avoid being shot down during reconnaissance, the demonstrator aircraft activated its IFF (Identification Friend or Foe) system upon detecting radar waves from the scanning radar.
After more than 10 minutes of reconnaissance, the verification aircraft did not find any heat sources within the military base, but the military base's defense system was still operating autonomously.
Upon receiving the information, Lorraine did not allow the verification machine to continue exploring the situation within the military base, but instead instructed it to continue exploring the industrial and agricultural areas.
But a strange thing happened: even when the flagship docked at the military base's pier, the demonstrator still couldn't find any heat source.
Lorraine checked the intelligence system again and found that there was no indication that the island was in danger.
Subsequently, Lorraine activated the communication system equipped on the flagship and began sending IFF (Identification Friend or Foe) codes.
Fifteen minutes later, nothing had changed in the area Lorraine could see.
To ascertain the situation at the dock, Lorraine opened the hatch located at the rear of the ship and released six mechanical dogs.
At this point, the Sea Knight and the transport ship would still need 40 minutes to reach the dock.
As the exploration deepened, the situation on the island became increasingly clear.
Currently, all the buildings and equipment that the six robotic dogs have observed within the dock area are well-preserved and in normal working order.
The verification machine discovered that there were no piled-up goods or parked vehicles at the port on the west side of the island, only two large cargo ships that were empty and docked at their berths.
Twenty minutes later, the robotic dogs stopped at the boundary line between the army and navy bases, and the verification aircraft did not investigate the situation of the airport on the island.
After syncing the message to Platinum, Lorraine waited quietly on the flagship for 20 minutes, until the transport ship docked and the unmanned combat group and wheeled infantry fighting vehicles drove onto the pier.
Under the command of the robotic dogs, the unmanned combat swarm conducted a thorough search of the entire base.
Lorraine then donned the exoskeleton armor and entered the command center located in the center of the base with Platinum.
From the outside, the command center is unremarkable; it's just a large, square, two-story building.
"drop"
Pushing open the door, what greeted their eyes was a large array of computers arranged against the wall. Further inside, in the center was a huge holographic sand table, and on the wall opposite them were eight enormous screens mounted on it.
Next to the holographic sand table, on the second floor there is another connecting corridor with computers placed around it.
The two then walked around the command center but did not find any passage leading underground.
Back next to the holographic sand table, Lorraine and Platinum each affixed their name tags to an area on the holographic sand table that resembled a card reader.
[High privileges detected. System activation initiation.]
As a beautiful female voice rang out, the holographic sand table lit up, and a light blue circular progress bar appeared at the top.
As the progress bar advances, the computers on the first and second floors gradually light up, and a model of the entire island appears on the holographic sand table.
The command system has been activated; it has been 15 years, 4 months, and 12 days since the last activation.
[Major Platinum, welcome back to the unit.]
[Commander, welcome back to the unit. Supreme command has been transferred.]
Lorraine could tell that the female voice was more emotional this time, but what happened next really startled him.
As a beam of blue light shone down, a short-haired female officer in an army uniform with the rank of senior colonel appeared before Lorraine.
The officer then stepped forward and spoke to Lorraine.
[Commander, this is the Intelligent Combat Command System, codename Yao Guang.]
I am currently in charge of the maintenance and security of the entire island. Please feel free to ask me any questions you may have about the situation on the island.
Upon hearing Yao Guang's explanation, Lorraine instantly understood why such a peculiar situation had occurred on this island.
Then, Lorraine asked two questions that were currently of most concern to her.
"First, can I mobilize all the resources on this island?"
"Second, where is the amphibious task force stationed here now, and what is their situation?"
First, you have the authority to mobilize all resources on this island, including but not limited to the industrial systems located in the underground bunkers.

[Without satellite signal, the precise location of the amphibious assault group cannot be determined.]
Subsequently, a holographic sand table located in the center of the command center displayed a map of the sea area, along with a circle marked with the amphibious assault group.
