A week after the battle at the Westwind Defense Line.
"Have the final statistics of the battle come out?" Xia Fei asked.
On the screen, the military triumvirate had a rare relaxed look on their faces. The insectoids were rapidly retreating from the Alliance's territory, and many citizens no longer needed to wander into the depths of the universe, gradually returning to their homes. This greatly reduced the pressure on the triumvirate, but how to rebuild their homes that had been ravaged by the flames of war became the most important issue for the triumvirate.
"The losses were about the same. Over a thousand insectoid fleets were destroyed, while the Alliance lost close to eight hundred fortress planets and twelve supercarriers," Williams said.
Xia Fei replied, "The loss of the supercarriers is a pity, but the insectoids no longer have their main force after this battle, so they probably won't have any designs on the Alliance for the time being."
Layton said, "The new Emperor of the Golden Tent, Qingyan, has already ordered a retreat, sending a message saying that she wants to negotiate peace with the Alliance. Others may not know, but in any case, I'll never trust those insectoids again."
Xia Fei said, "I don't, either, but perhaps the insectoids really don't want to fight this time."
"How do you know what the insectoids are thinking?"
"I guessed."
Xia Fei had been very secretive about his actions in the insectoid territory, especially his cooperation with Qingyan and Qingliu. The triumvirate of the military did not know about it.
Layton wanted to ask more, but Tai waved his hand to stop him. If Xia Fei did not want to talk about it, no one could do anything about it. Tai knew this very well.
"Since the dust has settled, you should hurry back. The president is in a hurry to award you the Medal of Valor. In addition, I've already prepared the thing you asked for."
Xia Fei smiled and nodded. "Thank you, but I don't want the Medal of Valor. I don't have that much time to waste."
Williams said, "It's just a simple ceremony to commend your heroic performance in the war. In any case, you're going back to the imperial capital."
Xia Fei waved his hand and sternly said, "Gentlemen, you don't understand. I really don't have the time, and besides, I'm not going back to the imperial capital."
"Then you're going back to Earth?"
"Nope."
The triumvirate was somewhat confused. The war was about to end, and Xia Fei was not going back to the imperial capital or Earth. Was he planning to continue staying in the insectoid territory?
"The three of you, don't forget our agreement back then," Xia Fei said with a smile.
Tai and Layton appeared somewhat confused, and Williams was slightly taken aback. He then slapped his head and said, "Did you two forget that Xia Fei is also a member of the Alliance's task force? Now that Xia Fei has completed his mission and is returning, we must fulfill our promise to him."
Tai came to a sudden realization. "So it's about the Terminus Star Region. Although I don't know why you're in such a rush to get a star region, I, Tai, always keep my word. When you return, you'll become the Lord of the Terminus Star Region."
"Thank you." Xia Fei nodded. If that's the case, our deal is complete. Let's meet again if we have the chance.
Without saying anything else, Xia Fei tactfully rejected all the proposals from the triumvirate, turned off the screen, and lit himself a cigarette.
"Wouldn't it be bad to reject the proposal of the Big Three and the President?" Phantom frowned.
Xia Fei casually said, "Don't forget that I'll be going to the world of Law Adepts in two years and eight months. That's not a long time, and I don't have the time to waste on these politicians. Medals? What's a medal worth to me? "
Phantom nodded, expressing his agreement. Time was of the utmost importance to Xia Fei. Unless Xia Fei felt that it was worth it, he would not waste even a second on some empty reputation.
The situation with the insectoids was more or less what Xia Fei had predicted, though it was rather surprising that the Guild of the Wise had pushed Qingyan to the forefront. Xia Fei was well aware of Qingyan's methods. Given her charm, even a woman would not be able to resist her, and with a crafty expert like Qingliu assisting her from behind the scenes, this father-daughter combination could be said to be excellent.
Turning on the screen, Xia Fei contacted Avril.
"I'm going back," Xia Fei softly said.
Avril nodded repeatedly, a blissful blush on her face. "Mm. We'll be heading back to the Venal Galaxy the day after tomorrow. Half Moon Villa has been completely destroyed, but the family still has a few villas on the outskirts of the galaxy that haven't been destroyed. We'll be staying there for the time being."
Xia Fei frowned. "I'll be flying directly from the Wild Star Region to the Na 'vi territory, then entering from the western region of the Alliance before heading to the Death Trio Star Region. Can you wait for me in the western region of the Alliance? I want to see you one last time before entering the Death Trio Star Region."
Avril bit her lip. "You're not going back to Earth or the Venal Galaxy?"
Xia Fei lightly nodded. "Most of the residents of Earth have arrived in the western region of the Alliance, including Quantum Holdings. I'll be heading there to meet up with them. You know that the Alliance has given me the entire Terminus Star Region to manage. There's not much time left, and I need to hurry to my new territory to take a look. Earthlings can't always live on this tiny Earth. The construction of the new territory and the reconstruction of Earth must begin as soon as possible. These are matters that cannot be delayed."
Avril nodded, using a voice as soft as a mosquito to say, "No matter where you go, I'll follow you. If you want me to wait for you in the western region, I'll wait for you there."
"This …" Xia Fei did not know how to answer. He was about to leave his territory and head to the completely unknown Law Realm. Avril did not know about this, so how was he supposed to explain it to her?
Avril's meaning was obvious. She was determined to be with Xia Fei. Even if he had to go to the faraway Terminus Star Region, Avril would accompany him. However, Xia Fei had other concerns. Compared to the world of Law Adepts, what was a mere Death Trio Star Region?
Phantom sighed. "Xia Fei, what do you plan to do with Avril? Have her follow you to the Law Realm? "
"I haven't thought about it yet."
"Then you'd better think it through quickly. I don't think Avril is joking around this time. You'd better be mentally prepared."
…
First, Xia Fei retrieved the Impaler that he had hidden in the insectoid territory. He then piloted the ship toward the Wild Star Region without stopping. There, a beacon that Xia Fei had left behind years ago was quietly waiting for him. The beacon told him how to find that berserk black star phantom bat and that Thanatos-class carrier.
"We're here." Phantom looked out the window at the flashing red beacon and said, "Back then, you were almost killed by a black star phantom bat in this area. Now that you're back, you must kill that hateful bat and drive the carrier away."
Xia Fei silently nodded and did not say a word. He tightened the Star combat suit he was wearing and took out Peacock Blue in his right hand to take a look. He saw that this Blueluster Grass was no different from the ones that grew in the crevices of the rocks. It was thin and small, stubbornly holding its head high.
"Just how does this grass grow? It can't be like Furball, right?" Phantom curiously asked. "If that's the case, you're going to be broke again."
Xia Fei was speechless. He originally had a ball, a ghost, and a robot by his side, and now there was an additional blade of grass. Moreover, none of these four were normal. They were all freaks.
After packing up, Xia Fei placed Furball on his shoulder and pressed a button. The Impaler suddenly vanished into space.
The temporary wormhole opened, and the Impaler slowly sailed out.
This was an ancient battlefield, and warship wreckage was everywhere, so the cloaking system could not be used. Besides, Xia Fei had no intention of dodging. Not being able to defeat the black star phantom bat was a matter of the past, and the current Xia Fei was no longer the same as he was in the past.
In the distance, that giant Thanatos-class carrier was still there. After many, many years of drifting through space, this metal monster still looked brand new.
Xia Fei's eyes exploded with light. "What a beautiful warship! I'll definitely take you away today!"
Furball had been sleeping on Xia Fei's shoulder. The moment they entered the ancient battlefield, Furball raised his head and lazily sensed the presence of the black star phantom bat. He then disdainfully pursed his lips and went back to sleep as if he did not care about Xia Fei at all.
The Impaler prepared to dock with the Thanatos-class carrier. Xia Fei remembered that that evil creature lived in the ship's power room. After not seeing it for several years, he wondered if the monster had grown as much as Xia Fei had.
* Bang! *
The two airtight doors connected, and Xia Fei disembarked. He entered the ship and followed the passage to the power room.
"Roar!"
Suddenly! An intimidating sound came from below the warship. The black star phantom bat sensed Xia Fei's appearance and immediately glared at him!
The black star phantom bat's voice was a mental attack. Once hit, it would interfere with the brain's ability to think and react!
At this moment, Furball on Xia Fei's shoulder let out a low whimper. One was loud and deafening while the other was as deep as the tolling of a bell. The two completely different sounds collided, creating quite a bit of chaos. However, the black star phantom bat's voice quickly faded away. It was as if Furball's voice was simply too intimidating, making the black star phantom bat not dare to resist.
* Whoosh ~ *
Xia Fei suddenly accelerated, charging toward the lower power room.
"Transform!"
The Dragonscale Hectoslasher transformed into a two-handed saber that Xia Fei dragged behind him!
After a few turns, he arrived at the power room. Xia Fei was worried that fighting with this exotic beast would damage the warship, so he planned to end the battle quickly and take it down in one fell swoop!
* Bang! *
Xia Fei smashed open the door and charged in! He saw a giant black bat curled up in a corner of the power room, its body slightly trembling as it stared at Xia Fei in fear and unease.
"Beast Spirit Codex!"
Xia Fei's eyes met the black star phantom bat's, and the two powerful mental energies intertwined and entangled!
Xia Fei's lips curled into a vicious smile. "I didn't think that after so many years, you wouldn't have made any progress, but I'm no longer the same person I was back then."
"Control!"
His eyes exploded with light!
Xia Fei's mental energy was like a flood, pushing aside the black star phantom bat's weak resistance and going straight for its brain!
The black star phantom bat had a look of fear on its face, its eyes filled with malevolence and resentment as it faced death.
"What a vicious bastard! Since you won't admit defeat before your death, I'll fulfill your wish! "
* Slash! *
The Dragonscale Hectoslasher did not use any technique. It sliced across the black star phantom bat's neck, and blood gushed out!
…
Xia Fei stood in the command deck of the Thanatos-class carrier. The Impaler and Vampire were still in the warehouse, and the three ships were moving together!
Phantom excitedly looked at the massive ship and proudly said, "I never thought that I'd have the chance to ride on a legendary capital ship!"
