The performance of the new recruits at the beginning made Human Emperor's face unpleasant. If it weren't for the protection of the veteran soldiers, the losses of these new recruits in their first battle would have been at least 30%, even 40-50%!
With protection, the casualty rate still exceeded 10%, which was simply shameful! They were all Transcendents of at least Third Order, but their performance on the battlefield was like that of ordinary people. They didn't even have time to react before they died at the hands of Mutant Beasts. Their strength was quite good among humans, but they were nothing compared to even a blade of grass here.
After the first day of battle, Human Emperor reprimanded these people and was very dissatisfied with their performance. When the big guys got angry, the people below naturally had an unpleasant face. This message was passed down layer by layer, and everyone knew that the Emperor was serious. If their performance didn't improve, everyone would suffer.
On the second day of battle, the new recruits were finally not scared by the cruelty of the battlefield and started to fight back. Once they realized that these Mutant Beasts were not very strong, their confidence returned.
To be honest, they were just shocked by the large scene they had never experienced before. Once they got used to it, anyone could become a veteran.
With the increase in the number of battles, the strength of these people steadily improved. As Su Chen said, only by experiencing cruel battles could one's strength improve the fastest, just like Leng Yuwei.
As a price, nearly 100,000 people were killed or injured in the first batch.
This great loss frightened the next batch of people, who were extremely afraid. Some families even destroyed things in Base City and tried to escape.
The fate of these families was very miserable. Humanity was now under the control of the Emperor, and what was their strength?
It didn't take long for the Emperor to end the plan, but there were always people who liked to be contrarian. Someone on the forum shouted, "If all Transcendents of Third Order or above are forced to fight on the front lines, why aren't the people from Red Alert Base here?"
This post received a lot of support from people who were purely dissatisfied, but under the control of some malicious people, the post suddenly became the hottest one and received the attention of many people.
Yes, Red Alert Base was also a human force, so why weren't there any people from Red Alert Base? Su Chen smiled. He had already guessed that someone would bring this up. He told the other Emperors that he would handle this matter.
Su Chen snapped his fingers, and suddenly everyone with a phone saw that the Red Alert live broadcast app that was forcibly downloaded on their phones opened, revealing a live stream.
On the live stream was Su Chen sitting in a chair. This was Su Chen's first live broadcast to all of humanity!
"Who is this person? So cool, opening a live stream alone?"
"He's so young, but too bad I don't know him."
"This is the Red Alert live broadcast. This person must be related to Red Alert Base, maybe even a high-level member."
Everyone was guessing Su Chen's identity. Since Su Chen had never exposed his identity in public, others didn't know who he was. Ordinary people didn't know, but human emperors knew.
When Zhu Hui found out that Su Chen was live streaming, he sprayed water out of his mouth.
"What the f*ck, what is my brother doing?" He took out his phone and watched Su Chen's live stream.
He wasn't the only one who did this. Other Emperors also opened the live stream, wanting to see what Su Chen was going to do.
Su Chen smiled, his right hand propping up his chin, his body slightly leaning back in a lazy posture. But in the eyes of others, this posture was so pretentious!
"I'm sure many of you are curious about who I am," Su Chen spoke, "I won't keep you in suspense any longer. I can tell you all that I am the Commander of Red Alert Base."
His words caused a stir, leaving everyone in shock.
This young man was the mysterious Commander of Red Alert Base?
The power of Red Alert Base was well known, and many people had speculated that the mysterious Commander must be an experienced elder who had weathered many storms. But reality was different - the Commander was this young.
"I'm here to explain why Red Alert Base hasn't sent anyone to the front lines. It seems that many people are dissatisfied with this."
Su Chen gestured with his left hand, and a screen appeared showing the full view of Red Alert Base.
This was the first time humanity had seen the appearance of Red Alert Base, and they were immediately shocked.
The enormous and peculiar buildings, the towering towers with occasional flashes of fire, the tanks patrolling around, and the giant cannon standing on the city wall all left people in awe.
Now, each Red Alert Base had developed different modes according to the local terrain. Those near rivers were mainly focused on shipyards, while those near mineral deposits were focused on ore refineries. Only Su Chen's main base had no weaknesses and was a comprehensive development.
The power of a main base was equivalent to the combined combat power of three sub-bases!
But that was not enough for Su Chen. His goal was to build a base that could stand alone against a hundred enemies!
With the Super Fortress, the power of his main base had increased significantly.
Coupled with Yun Ru's continued research into various Qiluo Civilization technologies, Su Chen didn't even know how terrifying his base was when it went all out.
"This is just the strength of one of my bases. I have many such bases. And here's something else to say: even my weakest subordinates are all Fourth Order Transcendents."
Su Chen's words shocked all of humanity. If this were true, Su Chen's power would be terrifying.
All of his weakest subordinates were Fourth Order Transcendents. What kind of concept was this?
Even the current four major battlefronts of humanity could not have such a configuration. Third Order Transcendents were not uncommon, and there were even some special positions that were not Third Order Transcendents.
"I just talked about the strength I possess. Now let me tell you about the contributions Red Alert Base has made to humanity."
With Su Chen's examples, no one dared to question anymore. They finally realized how much they owed to Red Alert Base. Without Red Alert Base, humanity would not be where it was today.
Yet, they not only used the resources of Red Alert Base, but also thought that Red Alert Base was not doing enough. What kind of logic was that?
It was like a millionaire giving a poor person a million dollars, but the poor person thought it was too little and wanted at least half. They even wanted the millionaire to give them all his money. Was this something a human being could do?
Before Su Chen brought up these issues, they had thought it was reasonable to stand on a moral high ground and criticize Su Chen. But when Su Chen broke the window, they all shut up and dared not say anything.
