Han Xiao's intelligence had cleared the fog of war for the dynasty. The dynasty's generals on the frontlines were swift and decisive, and the flames of war engulfed the Kunde Race's territory in just a month.
Every army split up and attacked the Kunde Race's main fleet that was on standby at different locations. The battleship formations advanced and swept through the galaxy.
Under the bombardment of the dynasty's cannons, the Kunde Race was caught off guard and was forced to retreat, losing a large number of their main battleships.
In a certain Star System, a dynasty fleet was exchanging fire with the Kunde Race's main fleet. The enemy was already on the verge of defeat and was being mercilessly slaughtered. The Kunde Race battleships were pierced through by the psionic cannons one after another, turning into fireworks in the universe.
The enemy's main ship was already surrounded, and the cannons of countless dynasty fleets were aimed at this main ship. The moment there was any movement, they would open fire and destroy it. The reason they did not kill the enemy was because they wanted to capture the commander of the enemy's fleet alive.
A small spaceship flew out from the dynasty's formation, carrying the dynasty's officer who was going to take over the main ship.
The enemy's main ship removed its shield as though it was surrendering. The small spaceship successfully approached and entered the port of the enemy's main ship. The difference in size between the two was like a sesame seed and a grape.
Screech!
The hatch of the main ship opened, and a pale-skinned dynasty officer stepped into the enemy's main ship. It was Gaud.
The adjutants of the dynasty's officers had many responsibilities. Some were like personal secretaries, and some were involved in dangerous battles. Gaud belonged to the latter.
A large number of Kunde Race soldiers surrounded them, and all of them held onto their weapons tightly, emitting intense hostility.
Gaud glanced around and ignored them. He adjusted the galactic translator by his ear and slowly spoke.
"Who's the commander? Step forward."
A commotion broke out among the Kunde Race soldiers, and a tall mantis shrimp in uniform walked out. It was the commander of this fleet. "Invader, how do you know our language?"
Both sides had always been at war and had never exchanged information. To this group of Kunde Race officers, this was the first time they were interacting with an invader. They were surprised that Gaud knew their language.
"It's just some insignificant technology," Gaud said calmly.
The information Han Xiao gave to the dynasty was a complete set, and it naturally included the language. There was no need for the dynasty to decipher it, as they could directly import the language into the galactic translator and communicate with each other easily.
The Kunde Race commander did not pursue the matter and said with a deep voice, "Please stop killing my comrades. We have already lost."
"Sure. As long as you surrender and hand over the command of the fleet to me, we will stop attacking," Gaud said calmly.
"Alright, follow me."
The Kunde Race commander turned around to lead the way, and the soldiers beside him opened up a path. Gaud glanced at them, and a mocking smile appeared on his face. He then followed with large strides.
The group advanced along the passageway, turning one corner after another. The atmosphere was silent the entire time, and no one spoke.
After walking for a while, Gaud suddenly chuckled and said slowly, "Don't worry.
"You've led us around for so long. Have you prepared your trap yet? Don't make me wait too long."
As soon as he said that, the Kunde Race commander at the front stopped in his tracks and turned around with shock in his eyes.
Exposed?!
But since he had discovered it, why was he still so calm?
Although he had been exposed, his decision could not be changed. The Kunde Race commander's tone suddenly became ferocious.
"You want me to surrender after slaughtering my troops? Dream on! Let's die together! "
As soon as he said that, a violent tremor came from beneath his feet. Gaud looked down and saw that the metal deck was expanding rapidly. Numerous cracks appeared on it, and a piercing blue light could be seen from the cracks.
"You placed Primordial Psionic Energy on your ship and planned to self-destruct long ago …"
Gaud was only halfway through his sentence when a loud sound wave reverberated throughout the flagship.
Boom!
The next moment, psionic energy gushed out and swallowed the bodies of Gaud, the Kunde Race commander, and everyone else, filling up every inch of space!
At the same time, the dynasty fleet in the outside world noticed the abnormality. The enemy flagship that was surrounded exploded from the inside out, turning into a Primordial Psionic Energy ball that rapidly spread in all directions. The Kunde Race commander was planning to drag the dynasty fleet down with him and self-destruct!
In the command ship far away, the dynasty commander in charge of this army snorted coldly.
"He's indeed planning to self-destruct. Psionic Energy Disposal Team, take action!"
After the order was given, a circular device appeared on the bow of the dynasty battleships in the innermost layer of the encirclement. It vibrated slightly and produced a resonance, forming an invisible transparent cover that completely enveloped the Primordial Psionic Energy ball. The space around it was clearly distorted.
The dynasty fleet had already made preparations to deal with the self-destruction of psionic energy. This device was a special device that dealt with psionic energy pollution. It had to work together to envelop the Primordial Psionic Energy ball. This Primordial Psionic Energy ball that had just been created was still very small and easy to deal with.
The expansion speed of this Primordial Psionic Energy ball started to slow down. It went from expanding outwards to shrinking inwards.
The entire process lasted for dozens of minutes. This Primordial Psionic Energy ball gradually shrank from the size of a flagship to a sphere with a diameter of two to three meters. It was still shrinking rapidly.
The most common way to deal with psionic energy pollution was to use a special device to compress the volume and increase the energy density, turning it into a psionic energy seed. This method was relatively clean and did not have many side effects. The only problem was that it took a long time. Furthermore, when the psionic energy expanded to a certain extent, it would not be easy to deal with it.
Right at this moment, a figure floated out of the Primordial Psionic Energy ball. It was Gaud. Not only was he completely unharmed, even his hair was not messed up. He was even carrying the Kunde Race commander, who was still alive and kicking.
The entire flagship had been swallowed by the Primordial Psionic Energy ball, and only the two of them were still alive.
"You … you …" The Kunde Race commander stared at Gaud with his eyes wide open.
Originally, he was prepared to die and wanted to perish together with the enemy. However, at this moment, he did not dare to believe what he had just seen.
Gaud glanced at him and knocked him out. He then stretched out his other hand and clenched his fist toward the Primordial Psionic Energy ball.
Hu hu hu!
In the blink of an eye, this Primordial Psionic Energy ball turned into a speck of light the size of a grain of rice, shining with a dazzling blue light.
This was a newly formed Primordial Psionic Energy Seed. It landed on Gaud's finger like a blue gem, dyeing his finger and face blue.
Gaud was holding an unstable super energy source in his hand, but his expression was calm. He looked at it for a while before taking out a spherical storage device and stuffing the Primordial Psionic Energy seed into it.
He then gestured toward the dynasty fleet and told his colleagues to turn off the device that compressed the psionic energy. He then returned to the command ship with the Kunde Race commander and the Primordial Psionic Energy seed to meet his superior.
"Well done. I will personally record this achievement for you."
The dynasty commander personally welcomed Gaud and patted his shoulder. He was clear about Gaud's ability, which was why he chose to let Gaud board the ship.
The Primordial Psionic Energy was extremely domineering, and even a Beyond Grade A would receive continuous high damage from it. However, Esper Abilities had always been limitless, and very few Esper Abilities could allow the user to survive within the Primordial Psionic Energy.
Gaud's Esper Ability was one of them, and it had a very special meaning.
Before Gaud, the entire universe had only guessed that such a Super High Risk Esper Ability existed, but there had never been a concrete case. Gaud might be the first Esper Ability user to be discovered since ancient times. At the very least, his ability was the closest to this Super High Risk Esper Ability.
On the surface, he was just a Super from the dynasty who had just entered the Calamity Grade, but due to the uniqueness of his Esper Ability, he had already received the attention of the upper echelons and entered the list of Supers to be heavily observed. The dynasty treated him as a Beyond Grade A seed and had high hopes for him.
Hearing his superior's praise, Gaud was not shocked. He smiled faintly, stopped, and stood aside. His eyes were as calm as an ancient well. No one knew what he was thinking.
…
The dynasty launched multiple battles at the same time.
The Kunde Race army was defeated one after another, and the dynasty's sudden all-out attack disrupted their formation.
"Everyone, we are losing this war."
In the conference room of the Kunde Race command ship, the Kunde Race leader placed his hands on the table and looked at the upper echelons coldly.
"Losing the war was within our expectations, but the process was out of our control." One of the upper echelons said with a solemn tone. "Our main fleets that were hidden in different locations were accurately attacked by the enemy, and we suffered heavy casualties. This matter is very strange. The enemy seems to have our coordinates."
The Kunde Race's battle plan was to slowly lure the enemy deep into their territory and lure the Red Empire into their territory. Then, they would attack the enemy's stargate together with their main fleet hidden in the outside world to cut off the enemy's path of retreat. They would then use the scorched earth plan to wipe out as many enemies as possible.
However, the Red Empire's precise attacks had already disrupted the Kunde Race's strategy. What made them even more terrified was that their intelligence seemed to have been leaked.
"We can't tell if the enemy is using special observation methods to locate our hidden main fleet or if they have obtained our internal information. If it's the former, then it's fine, but if it's the latter, then our situation is very serious. The enemy may have seen through our scorched earth plan and even obtained the coordinates of all our troops, including ours." Someone said with a worried tone.
"No matter what, we have to prepare for the worst," the Kunde Race leader said. "Our grasp of quantum network technology is not mature enough, and the enemy's technology is more perfect than ours. Maybe we should give up on this convenient communication technology for the time being."
"If that's the case, we will be in an even more passive position …"
"Let's not talk about it anymore. It is time to retreat and place our hopes on the scorched earth plan." The Kunde Race leader said with a deep voice, "The only problem is whether the enemy has seen through our scorched earth plan. If they have, we will have to make up for it."
"How?"
"The troops carrying out the scorched earth plan have already set off for a long time. Even if the enemy has the coordinates, it will take some time for them to catch up. Thus, as long as we cut off their connection with the command center and shut off the quantum network, cutting off all communication with the outside world, the enemy will lose their coordinates again."
Hearing this, the shrimps could not help but nod.
This was to turn the troops of the scorched earth plan into a blind and deaf ghost fleet. It was not a bad idea.
"Since the enemy knows of our plan, they will definitely be prepared to deal with it. Even if they do not know the coordinates of the Primordial Psionic Energy, they will be able to discover the location of the psionic energy explosion through observation and quickly deal with it. This way, the effect of the scorched earth plan will be greatly reduced, and the enemy will be the first to eliminate it."
"That's right, our strategy has already failed to a certain extent." The Kunde Race leader's tone was resolute. "However, we have to try our best to leave as little resources as possible for the enemy. No matter what, we have to make the enemy suffer a certain amount of losses."
The upper echelons looked at each other, and no one objected.
Seeing that no one had any objections, the Kunde Race leader turned on the virtual screen in the conference room, entered his authority, and opened a secret interface. On it, the location and status of all the troops of the scorched earth plan could be seen in real time.
At this moment, the interface showed that all the troops were rushing to their destination normally and had not been attacked. Everything seemed normal.
After confirming that the scorched earth plan was operating normally and had not been destroyed by the enemy, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. This was the only backup plan they could count on at the moment.
Everyone immediately contacted the executor of the scorched earth plan, and the other party's figure appeared on the virtual screen.
"The upper echelons have orders for you. Change the target location of the psionic energy explosion, cut off the quantum network connection, and shut down all information channels. After the mission is completed, leave the location of the psionic energy explosion, restore the connection, and report back to us. Understood?"
"Understood."
After giving a few instructions, the Kunde Race leader hung up.
After dozens of seconds, the real-time surveillance of the scorched earth troops dimmed one after another, and the connection was cut off.
Seeing this, one of the upper echelons could not help but sigh. "Although this is not the best method, at least this is safer."
The Kunde Race leader nodded, looked around, and said with a deep voice.
"Since the arrangements have been made, we can begin to evacuate. Remember to bring along all the Supers that we have captured."
At this point, the Kunde Race had already decided to recall their troops and disperse.
In the previous battle, they had indeed captured a small number of Supers and treated them as important experimental materials. They planned to bring them back for research.
…
At the same time, at one of the borders of the Kunde Race's territory, a scorched earth plan troop was being attacked by the dynasty's fleet.
A Kunde Race battleship had already been docked, and the dynasty's Supers were clearing out the enemy soldiers.
The captain sealed the door of the command room and hurriedly sent communication requests to the command center. However, there was no response at all.
"What's going on? Why aren't the upper echelons answering the emergency call?"
The captain was shocked and enraged.
Right at this moment, a cold beam of light slashed through the alloy door of the command room and passed through the captain's body.
Whoosh!
"Ga!" The captain screamed and fell to the ground. Blue blood flowed out, and he was only left with half a breath.
An imperial officer holding an alloy blade walked in and looked at the call on the virtual screen. He then looked at the unwilling expression on the captain's face and chuckled before turning off the call.
"Don't waste your energy. You won't be able to contact your own people."
Hearing this, the captain's eyes widened. "Could it be …"
Swoosh!
A cold blade light flashed, and a large prawn head flew into the air. Fresh blood splattered on the cabin wall like a crude abstract painting.
Keeping his weapon, the imperial officer turned around and left. He did not explain his plan to the enemy. This was a compulsory course for the imperial army.
In fact, Han Xiao did not only pass on intelligence. Since he had decided to help, he also passed on the loophole program that he had left in the Kunde Race's quantum network to the dynasty for them to control and increase the mission rating.
This way, the entire command system of the Kunde Race would become the dynasty's plaything. They would not be able to resist at all and could only be manipulated into various positions.
Everything that the Kunde Race command center saw, including the people they communicated with, was an illusion created by the dynasty.
They thought that they had given the order to the scorched earth plan troops, but in reality, they did not say anything. These troops did not receive any orders from the command center.
At the same time, the communication between these troops and the command center was controlled by the dynasty. All the information was intercepted, and the dynasty even blocked the communication channels. It was like two deaf people shouting at each other.
The Kunde Race was completely deaf and blind. The command center thought that the situation was going according to plan, but it was just an illusion created by the dynasty. The command system was paralyzed, and the troops outside were unable to call for help. They could only be slowly swallowed up by the dynasty.
Without the support of the galactic society, the Kunde Race was a crippled Star Cluster Civilization. Their quantum network technology was too weak and could not even withstand a single blow from Han Xiao. If it was a normal Star Cluster Civilization in the explored universe, Han Xiao would not be able to control their quantum network so easily.
The existence of a Virtual Mechanic was a strategic weapon in terms of intelligence. Furthermore, Han Xiao was a peak Beyond Grade A and had recently obtained (Perfect Mechanical Sense). His role in the war was not something that the other four Super systems could replace.
It was enough to make the enemy not even know how they died.
…
In a part of the galaxy far away from their homeland, the migration fleet carrying all the civilians of the Kunde Race secretly turned around and headed back in the direction they came from.
However, there was no indication on the star map. The people on the ship did not know that they had returned the way they came from.
The dynasty did not have the habit of letting their enemies escape and had already set up a trap to catch them all.
The Kunde Race had no way of escaping.
