The news brought by Galaraldo plunged the entire council chamber into silence.
The high-ranking lords remained silent.
They were all deep in thought.
The collapse of the Western front and the disappearance of the Phoenix along with Battle Group Leader Su Lie was undoubtedly a massive shock. However, the High Lords quickly recovered from their initial astonishment.
What they needed to contemplate now was what the Empire should do next.
The impact of the Western front's collapse was immense.
It was the primary battlefield among the three fronts. Before Galaraldo arrived to report on the Western front's situation, the meeting had been discussing how to break through the three fronts and focus the attack on Ironclad.
Well, there's no need to discuss that anymore.
The primary assault force is gone!
Now, the real question is: what should be done after the Phoenix is gone and the Western front has collapsed?
