Chapter 1052: This is just the beginning
A man in black robes entered the Demon King's palace.

The boots stepped on the red liquid, then without hesitation stepped over a severed limb on the ground.
"Your Majesty, why are you angry again?"
The Demon King opened his eyes and looked at the man in black robes before him.
"One of my near-T6 Destroyer-class heavy starships was destroyed by the enemy."
The enemy paid the price of less than ten T5 starships!
This directly resulted in me being at a disadvantage in the local battles where I was trying to contain the Angels.
The man in black robes said, "That's normal. After all, the Destroyer isn't a true T6 interstellar warship; it's just a near-T6."
If it's a true T6 interstellar warship, then it's not just a few T5 interstellar warships.
Even a hundred T5 starships are nothing but trash compared to a true T6 starship.
The Demon King squinted at the man before him: "Judging from your tone, you possess a genuine T6 interstellar warship?"
“I’ve said it before, we have anything His Majesty the Demon King wants here.”
"Have we always been fulfilling His Majesty's wishes?" the man in black robes said.
"Hehehe, satisfied?"
Is it considered satisfying to take out only one item at a time?
"I feel like you're just trying to seduce me into doing your bidding." The Demon King's aura was incredibly strong, as if he could crush the black-robed man before him.
"lure?
"No, no, no, we'd much rather call this a transaction or partnership between friends," said the man in black.
The Demon King stared at the man in black robes: "Then what will it take to get me a real T6 interstellar warship?"
"When you fulfill our promise and destroy the Mechanical Race's royal court," the man in black said.
"What exactly is it about that mechanical royal court that makes you so obsessed?" The Demon King squinted, as if trying to see through the person in front of him.
"That's none of Your Majesty's business."
"Your Majesty only needs to know that the day you conquer the Machine Race's royal court will be the day you possess a true T6 interstellar warship!" the black-robed man said, bowing.
The Demon King said coldly, "I want to too."
But I need more starships, more near-T6 destroyers.
Whether on the battlefield of the Machine Race Royal Court or on the battlefield against the Angel Race, I need more interstellar warships.
Keep in mind, there's still one more Dragon Squad that hasn't made a move yet!
“As long as you can provide more raw materials, we are naturally willing to produce more interstellar warships for you,” the man in black said.
"Haven't I already been delivering raw materials to those five industrial bases as required every week?" The Demon King frowned.
"We have enough of those raw materials, but we are still far from having enough of other raw materials."
"Besides, you want even more interstellar warships." The man in black robes looked helpless.
The Demon King also knew what the other party meant by the raw materials.
"Okay, I will meet your needs."
"I want to increase the weekly supply of interstellar warships by 30%!" the Demon King said solemnly.
“I am very willing to serve Your Majesty,” said the man in black robes.
The man in black robes then left the palace.
Several of the demon's henchmen were summoned by the demon king.
"Your Majesty, what are your orders?"
The demon's confidants looked at the blood and corpses in the palace with a sense of normalcy.
They would be surprised if these things weren't there.
"Send more raw materials to those five star systems," the Demon King said coldly.
Upon hearing this command...
A demon confidant looked at His Majesty with concern: "Your Majesty, the several planetary breeding grounds we have cultivated are far from meeting our current demand for those 'raw materials'."
Over-exploitation can lead to problems in subsequent production.
"Then let's look elsewhere."
Within our demon race's territory, with so many star systems and so many planets, do we really need more people?
"Those inferior interstellar races, we sheltered them, gave them planets to live on, now it's time for them to repay us," the Demon King said coldly.
The demon's confidant lowered his head and swallowed hard: "Your Majesty, we have been secretly 'collecting' from several remote planets during this period of time."
Despite this, it has already generated some negative rumors from the outside world.
If we continue like this... it could very well affect your prestige and rule within the demon race!
"It will affect my rule?"
"Hahaha, you mean those inferior races dare to betray me!" The Demon King sneered, "Their lives are all mine."
Shouldn't they sacrifice some of their lives for our war?
Ignore all that and just do as I say!
The weekly supply of these raw materials has increased by 50%.
If the number is insufficient, find people from your respective territories and tribes to make up the difference!
Do you understand?
The demon's confidants dared not raise any further objections, for they knew that the Demon King was truly capable of doing such a thing.
"Yes, sir..."

Holy Dragon Angel Legion
Angel Tilia breathed a sigh of relief, sat down in her captain's chair, and rubbed her temples.
"Great! We've destroyed a Demon Race near-T6 Destroyer-class heavy interstellar battleship!"
This is the first kill ever!
"I heard that the Mech Race didn't destroy even one near-T6 Destroyer!" The adjutant was overjoyed.
If this achievement is reported back to the higher-ups of the Angel race, it will surely be another great accomplishment.
"But we also paid a considerable price."
"We've lost so many T5 starships," Angel Tilia said gravely.
"How could destroying a near-T6 Destroyer-class heavy interstellar battleship not come at a price?"
I heard that the Mech race has lost nearly a hundred T5 interstellar warships, but hasn't destroyed even a single near-T6 Destroyer.
"This proves that we are still stronger!" the adjutant laughed.
The bridge was filled with the joy of destroying the strongest enemy ship.
Angel Tilia smiled as she looked at her bridge. She said nothing more, for this was indeed a time for everyone to enjoy themselves.
She looked at the star map before her, which covered the entire battle line between the angels and the demons.
Once the news of our side killing a near-T6 Destroyer-class heavy interstellar battleship gets out, it will surely boost the morale of the entire front and give us an advantage in various local battles.
Logically speaking, the situation should have improved considerably.
But for some reason, the angel Tilia felt uneasy.
It was as if this war had only just begun.
There was a feeling of pressure pressing down on her, making it hard for her to breathe.
Angel Tilia stared at the wreckage of the near-T6 Destroyer-class heavy interstellar battleship in the image, clutching her chest.
He muttered to himself, "Maybe I've just been too tired lately."
However, we still need to find a way to get Angel King and Xiaolong to purchase more T5 interstellar warships.
"Further urge the JF-17 Thunder Legion to join the war as soon as possible."
Thinking of the formidable combat strength of the Dragon Legion, the gloom in Tian Shi Tiliya's heart seemed to dissipate considerably.
