A dozen minutes later, an aircraft carrier of enormous size slowly deactivated its stealth mode, with various drones continuously "pulling" behind it. Along the massive hull, Deep-Sky Fighters frantically circled, as if searching for something.

A dozen seconds later, the five-kilometer-long hull seemed to be torn apart by something, splitting open and revealing countless objects moving at high speed inside.

In an instant, several beams of blazing white light, each about ten meters in diameter, came from different directions and shot towards the dark Starry Sky with breathtaking precision and ruthless decisiveness.

The laser's destructive energy easily melted through the violently flashing shields and thick armor. Half of the ship's hull vaporized and broke apart silently, and the internal explosion burst out like fireworks from the breach, scattering more fragments and molten metal into the cold Void.

Amidst the devastating flashes and scattered debris, the remaining Clones, already receiving orders and lurking throughout the ship, used the impact of the explosion and the cover of the debris to burst outwards at top speed!

Tens of thousands of tiny figures, mixed in with countless metal fragments and frozen droplets, fled in all directions.

Yuncang's fleet reacted as if they had seen a room full of cockroaches. In an instant, all sorts of attacks came out, and some Warships even deactivated their stealth mode.

Only after all the Clones they had launched had perished did the Warships begin to meticulously clean up the aircraft carrier that had just been invaded with lasers, melting it inch by inch without any intention of conducting any further investigation.

A dozen minutes later, amidst the millions of fragments scattered in all directions as the ship disintegrated.

A tiny, inconspicuous piece of "metal scrap," no bigger than a fingernail and covered with traces of molten solidification, drifted silently away from that deadly airspace with the aftershocks of the explosion.

Inside it, curled up was a tiny Clone of the [Wu Fengzi] whose consciousness had become blurred due to excessive division and consumption, and whose form had shrunk to a hundred times the size of a cell.

After drifting Jingjing for another ten minutes or so, it confirmed that it was far away from the airspace where the battle was taking place and that it had not been Lock-On any detection system.

After observing the other Clones again, [Wu Fengzi] finally confirmed that his tiny Clone had flown out of the encirclement and sent an email to the World Master.

About twenty minutes later, the familiar ripples appeared once again in the silent Void. The figure of the Lord of the [Desolate Continent] World Master, as steady as a mountain, slowly emerged, his gaze falling precisely on the floating "fragment".

"It's true what they say, what goes around comes around. Back then, the Yuncang players worked themselves to the bone, groveling and plotting against us. Now it's our turn to be cautious."

"Inside the cocoon of disguise," one Survivor sighed.

"I don't see any caution in you. True caution isn't about withdrawing everyone to [ Under the Under the Starry Sky] first, waiting for the scouts to find Safe Zone, and then teleporting there collectively. Aren't you just staying here to save that 'source'?"

Someone nearby made a comment, and then said something else, and the two of them started arguing.

Su Luo silently watched outside, while Goushi turned around and joined in the commotion, with most people maintaining their speed while watching the spectacle.

"Silence. Everyone, remain alert and ready to engage."

The "cocoon" of disguise not only isolates the Survivors from external investigations, but also significantly weakens Survivor perception of the outside world.

But Su Luo used "Gravity Vision".

Just as Su Luo looked outside, in the feedback map of Gravity Vision, the "shadows" of several enormous objects quietly slipped into the edge of perception.

A colossal object weighing over ten million tons is hurtling forward at nearly four times their speed!

Then, the second, the third... they didn't come head-on, but caught up and overtook from the side and rear at a faster speed, and then cut diagonally towards the area ahead of the "cocoon's" planned route.

Su Luo and her group have now accelerated to over two thousand kilometers per second.

In other words, their flight path has been roughly guessed, and at the same time, a fleet is traveling at a speed of nearly 10,000 miles per second and is likely to intercept them not far ahead.

Engaging in space warfare with Technology Side weaponry is something almost no Survivor wants to face.

"If I remember correctly, didn't someone just stop saying what they were saying?"

After stirring up trouble, the Goushi poop slowly "floated" back to the center of the "cocoon," looking at Yuncang No. 29, which was suspended in mid-air and temporarily in standby mode, with an expression of lingering satisfaction.

"Are you out of your mind? Your own communication channels clearly have complete information, why do I have to explain it?"

"Please tell us, Lord Yuncang. Please broaden the horizons of us country bumpkins." Goushi Shit clasped his hands together and bowed to the figurine.

This affected manner caused the corners of the mouths of several people around to twitch slightly.

"Alright, since you are so earnest in your request, the supreme and erudite Lord Yuncang No. 29 will have the mercy to satisfy the curiosity of you poor wretches..." Yuncang No. 29 said with a reluctant expression.

"We were just talking about the Deep-Space Fleet, which you'll most likely see in person soon. Now, let's move on to the 'Wireless Fleet'."

Its voice resounded clearly in everyone's minds through the silver-white cube:

"The Wireless Fleet, as its name suggests, has a core design philosophy completely different from the Deep-Space Fleet. Its primary responsibility is not long-range strikes or fleet battles, but rather protection and reliance—protecting the [Wall of Infinity] and relying on the near-infinite energy provided by the [Wall of Infinity]."

The Survivors listened quietly, without making a sound, and simply continued to accelerate silently.

"[The Wall of Infinity], you must have already seen its outline in the distance. That is the true core project and Ultimate Defense Line of the Yuncang Civilization—the initial stage of the Dyson Cloud Array. The honeycomb-like megastructure network formed on precise orbits currently covers nearly ten percent of the sunlit surface of Yuncang Star, absorbing and converting an astronomical amount of Fixed Star energy per second."

"The Wireless Fleet is like 'poisonous bees' attached to this giant web. They patrol the outer perimeter of the [Wall of Infinity] year-round, between specific tracks and defensive nodes, forming the first layer of dynamic defense."

"Each wireless ship is connected in real time to the nearest [Wall of Infinity] energy node via mature and efficient microwave or laser wireless power transmission technology, thus possessing a kind of infinite energy."

Su Luo paid no attention to the information it was telling him, which was either known or could be deduced. Most of his attention was focused on the seemingly quiet but actually dangerous deep space outside the "cocoon".

Suddenly, the silvery-white Laboratory silently burrowed into the "cocoon," its enormous size instantly taking up more than half of the cocoon's interior space, crowding the Survivors together.

"What the hell?!" "It's so crowded!" "You've poked me..."
