In a galactic war, the support and supply routes that relied on stargates were very important. The dynasty's troops would constantly plant stargates along the way, forming a shortcut that allowed them to advance and retreat. In order to prevent the enemy from launching a sneak attack on these stargate stations, the various armies would station a portion of their troops every time the stargate was extended. Therefore, the deeper they went into the Dust Light Star Cluster, the smaller the troops led by the dynasty's officers.
As the aggressor, the dynasty had no choice but to drag the battle line longer. However, this was the advantage of having a large number of troops.
As the size of the troops at the frontlines decreased, the intensity of the battle also increased. Of course, the commander of each troop was a young officer with a bright future that the dynasty had transferred from all over the country. They all had rich galactic war experience.
How luxurious was the lineup? Anyway, in Han Xiao's memory, almost all of these transferred officers were future upper echelons of the military. There were at least three of them whose authority was not below Teny's, and they would lead the other large armies of the dynasty.
Facing such a group of generals, the Kunde Race was at a complete disadvantage. Even if the dynasty's troops were reduced, the Kunde Race would still suffer defeat after defeat.
After receiving Han Xiao's instructions, Teny changed his previous style and began to let the Black Star Corps take on more missions. He also took special care of Nero, whom Han Xiao had mentioned.
Basically, in every battle, Nero's large detachment would be given a crucial mission, which would fall on the heads of the various small teams. As a result, the battles became extremely frequent.
Coincidentally, most of the graduates of the Super Academy belonged to different teams in this detachment. The continuous high-intensity and high-risk battles put a huge burden on these young students. Even Nero could not take it. He felt that it was strange and did not know how their detachment had offended the commander.
Due to the continuous high-pressure battles, Nero's machinery was severely damaged, and close to half of his stock was gone. When there was no battle, he had no way to rest and had to repair his machinery bitterly, afraid that he would not have any equipment to use in the next battle.
At this moment, Nero was extremely grateful to Reynold.
Isn't it just not sleeping? When I was forced to study, I had already cultivated this ability.
This was not just a description but a talent on the interface.
[Advanced Fatigue Resistance]: + 500% Stamina Recovery Rate and -60% Stamina Depletion Rate. Reduces the 'Mental Fatigue' status caused by lack of sleep and rest. At most, it will accumulate to 'Slight Mental Fatigue'.
For someone with good talent to be able to cultivate a talent even without sleeping, Han Xiao did not know how to reason with him.
However, the other graduates did not have Nero's inspirational experience and were extremely tired. Even Mia did not have the time to chat with him on the phone.
Since Nero had no way of guessing the commander's thoughts, it was useless even if he cursed in his heart. He could only continue to fight and did not know that he had already been arranged by Teny.
High intensity battles would lead to casualties, but that was how actual combat training worked. Losses were unavoidable. Nero's team was still fine. Although they were exhausted, none of their members had died. Through the frequent battles, Nero's bond with his teammates had become stronger.
The Red Empire had an overwhelming advantage in this battle, and many days passed in the blink of an eye. The various dynasty fleets had already crossed many Star Systems and were finally approaching the borders of the Kunde Race's territory.
As the army approached, the scouts moved first. The various armies that were approaching the Kunde Race's territory from different directions all sent out a large number of scouts to scout the Kunde Race's territory. Among these scouts, there were unmanned fleets that could be controlled remotely and combat squads that carried the ground troops.
Without any surprise, Nero's team was chosen to be the scouts to carry out the dangerous scouting mission.
Just as the dynasty's troops were exploring the borders of the Kunde Race, Han Xiao had secretly sent out a secret mechanical army that had followed his instructions and arrived near the Kunde Race's mother planet.
…
This was a black planet that looked like a desolate planet. There were a large number of armed reconnaissance satellites floating outside the planet's atmosphere, as well as sky camouflage equipment used to cover the planet's surface. Through the detection eyes of the mechanical soldiers, the true appearance of the Kunde Race's mother planet could be seen. In fact, this was a sapphire-like planet. The ocean took up most of the surface area, and there were many floating cities on the surface.
"So, this is what this planet originally looked like."
The mechanical soldiers stopped in space far away from the planet and activated their camouflage. With Han Xiao's technology and Mechanical Force, it was enough to prevent the Kunde Race's mother planet from detecting the existence of these mechanical soldiers.
One of the mechanical soldiers was Han Xiao's Lord's Avatar, and it carried his consciousness. It was currently carefully observing this planet.
In his previous life, after the Flickering World was opened, Han Xiao had come here to complete a mission. At that time, the Kunde Race's mother planet had already been completely modified by the dynasty.
Because the dynasty had directly attacked the mother planet, the population of the mother planet had basically been evacuated. However, the Kunde Race did not blow up the mother planet, and there were still many facilities left on it. Furthermore, a small fleet was stationed there to temporarily manage it. This was one of the core nodes of the Kunde Race's quantum network.
"Get to work."
Han Xiao twisted his mechanical neck, and with a thought, he entered the quantum network vision.
His vision turned pitch black again, and only the light clusters representing the quantum network nodes were left. The brightness was different, and they were connected to each other by thin lines representing information flow, forming the structure of the network.
Han Xiao directly locked onto the main quantum network node of the Kunde Race's mother planet, and his consciousness turned into a stream of light. The firewall of the node appeared before his eyes like layers of dynamic data walls. In his eyes, there were holes and gaps everywhere.
He did not want to alarm the Kunde Race, so he chose to dive into the data instead of directly invading. He easily passed through the holes in the firewall and opened the back door.
The other party's quantum network technology was very weak, and all the confidential permissions were useless. It was like entering a house where the owner was not home, and the tools in his hands could open any room or safe. There was no need to ask. If he did, he would be doing whatever he wanted.
Very quickly, all the defenses of the Kunde Race's data vault were removed, and it appeared naked before Han Xiao's eyes like desserts waiting to be enjoyed.
"Philip, pack up and copy their database."
Han Xiao instructed.
His target was only the incomplete Version 1.0 Spacetime Splicing Technology. However, since he was already there, he might as well pack up all the data of the Kunde Race and bring it away.
Philip began to work. Copying the data of an entire Star Cluster would take some time. Making use of this time, Han Xiao took a look at all the objects that were connected to this node.
Through the path tracking method, he would be able to locate the whereabouts of all the Kunde Race's fleets.
"Let me see where the Kunde Race's troops are …"
After importing the coordinates into the star map, Han Xiao's eyes suddenly moved, and he discovered some interesting information.
The Kunde Race's fleet was roughly split into four groups. The core fleet, with the command center as the main fleet, was hiding within the territory, waiting for orders. The second fleet was blocking the dynasty's troops at the frontlines. It was normal for them to have opened up a battle line at the border. The third fleet was carrying the civilians and evacuating, which was already far away from the Kunde Race's territory.
What caught Han Xiao's attention was the fourth fleet. Countless small teams were heading toward the border of the territory in other directions, as though they wanted to form an encirclement. However, from such a far distance, it was clearly not a normal encirclement. It seemed like they were carrying out a special mission.
With Han Xiao's current knowledge, of course, he would not be confused. Very soon, he had a guess.
In such a situation, there should only be three possibilities. The first is to escape, the second is to cover the civilians as they evacuate, and the third is to set up a special trap. Escaping can be ruled out, but the civilians evacuating in the opposite direction can also be ruled out. In that case, the most likely possibility is to set up a trap.
As for the trap … Han Xiao narrowed his eyes. According to the methods that the Kunde Race could use and the specific situation, the enemy's most likely plan was to bury a large amount of Primordial Psionic Energy at the border of the territory and cause it to expand, allowing it to devour all the celestial bodies within the territory, leaving nothing for the dynasty.
This was not a random guess. There were too many examples of this during the exploration era. Wasn't the reason why so many artificial desolate universe belts were created because of the Primordial Psionic Energy?
"So, the Kunde Race wants to turn their homeland into a killing trap to lure the dynasty's fleet out. Woah, that's quite vicious. They even want to take a bite out of the dynasty before escaping." Han Xiao shook his head.
Only a civilization that did not know the dangers of the Primordial Psionic Energy would use this thing recklessly. The formation of a natural celestial body required billions of years, and the probability was random. Wherever the Primordial Psionic Energy passed by, it would devour all the celestial bodies, turning the universe into a desolate vacuum. No material resources could be found, and not a single blade of grass could be found.
Furthermore, as long as the pollution was not dealt with, the Primordial Psionic Energy would continue to expand endlessly. As its size increased, its contact area with the outside world would also increase, and the rate of expansion would also increase. If it expanded to a terrifying extent, it might not even be able to be dealt with. When that time came, all living beings could only race against the apocalypse.
Another important reason why the three Universal Civilizations were so passionate about exploring the unknown was that they were afraid that there would be an unknown advanced civilization that would leave the Primordial Psionic Energy and not deal with it, allowing it to expand endlessly. If that happened, it would only be a matter of time before the entire universe suffered.
In the history of his previous life, there were no records of how the dynasty dealt with the Kunde Race. Han Xiao did not know if the Kunde Race had carried out the scorched earth plan previously. However, the celestial bodies of the Dust Light Star Cluster in his previous life were very well preserved, which proved that even if the Kunde Race had carried out the scorched earth plan, the dynasty had stopped it in time.
After thinking about it, Han Xiao decided to pass this information to the dynasty. It would definitely increase his Mission Rating greatly.
"While the Primordial Psionic Energy is terrifying, it needs a process to expand to a certain scale. The dynasty has more than enough time to deal with this problem."
Han Xiao nodded and felt relieved.
He was only there to copy the Spacetime Splicing Technology, but he did not expect to receive such an unexpected reward.
After a while, Philip finished copying the data, and Han Xiao left behind a backdoor program. After cleaning up the traces of his visit, he deactivated the quantum network vision and ordered the mechanical army to return.
The Kunde Race mother planet quickly disappeared from the vision of the Lord's Avatar. From the beginning to the end, his visit did not alert anyone.
A pinnacle Beyond Grade A Virtual Mechanic was unparalleled in terms of stealing intelligence. He was an existence that even the three Universal Civilizations had to be wary of.
…
At this moment, the upper echelons of the Kunde Race, who had already been ransacked, were having a new meeting.
The topic of the meeting was related to Supers.
In the room, the Kunde Race leader looked at everyone and said with a deep voice, "The enemy's Super technology has given their warriors powerful individual combat strength. According to the data of the spaceship that fell, this Super technology is a method for individual life forms to train themselves. An individual can even have the strength to destroy a planet. The warriors that we are so proud of are simply unable to withstand a single blow from the Supers."
Everyone had a heavy heart. The Super system was a technology that could only be discovered through luck, and the Kunde Race was clearly on the blacklist of the Goddess of Luck just like Han Xiao.
The Supercluster Civilization behind the scenes had mentioned the existence of Supers but did not give the cultivation method of the Supers to the Kunde Race. As a result, the Kunde Race still did not have a Super system.
"Supers are exactly what we lack," the Kunde Race leader said slowly. "Everyone, we have already decided to leave our home. If we can obtain this technology from the enemy, it will help us gain a foothold in our new home."
"What you mean is …"
"I want the frontline troops to think of a way to capture some of the enemy's Supers and use them as experimental materials. As long as we obtain their bodies, we will be able to research the principles and secrets of the Super system."
"If that's the case, we will have to change the strategy of the frontline troops."
Everyone gathered their spirits and began to discuss.
Most people wanted to possess great strength and a long lifespan, not to mention that they were the upper echelons of the Kunde Race. Strength had always been linked to authority, and if there was a superhuman strength, then the strength of a fist would be authority.
They coveted the existence of Supers, and not only did they want to use the scorched earth plan to destroy the dynasty's plans, they also wanted to snatch the new technology from the dynasty's hands.
…
A few days later, at the border of the Kunde Race's territory.
A dynasty scout team was stealthily advancing.
This scout team had more than twenty battleships, and the majority of them belonged to the Black Star Corps. Not only Nero, but even Mia and a large group of graduates were among them.
They had been in the Kunde Race's territory for a few days now, and they had maintained their vigilance along the way, ready to fight at any moment. However, they had yet to encounter any enemies.
In the cabin of one of the battleships, a large group of army warriors was gathered around the star map and discussing the current situation. Nero stroked his chin and looked at the star map. He could not help but ask, "This is really strange.
Before we entered the Kunde Race's territory, we would encounter enemies intercepting us every day. Now that we have entered their territory, no one is coming to bother us? "
Hearing that, everyone turned to look at him but did not say a word.
Not far away, Miya stood with her arms crossed and raised her eyebrows. She joined the conversation and spoke in a confident tone.
"Perhaps the enemies felt that they could not stop the dynasty and have all fled."
"I don't think it's that simple." Nero shook his head.
This time, Nero's team and Mia's team were on the same battleship, and there were a few other combat teams on the same battleship.
After experiencing the baptism of war during this period, Nero's combat strength had increased by a considerable amount. However, his temperament had not changed. After all, he still had a baby face, and no matter how one looked at him, it was still rather comical.
On the other hand, Mia had proven her combat strength in actual combat, and her temperament had become more and more confident.
Rumble!
Right at this moment, the fleet arrived at their target location and exited their hyperdrive state.
Outside the window was a planet, which was also the current target of their scout team. They were looking for a planet that was suspected to be a Kunde Race colonial planet.
On the surface of this planet, there were obvious traces of a city.
Seeing that, everyone's face tensed up.
"It seems like we have found the place. Everyone, be careful."
