Leaving?

"Damn it, no information. Yuncang No. 29 said Su Luo entered the Mainframe room and then completely ignored it."

Goushi raised his head and looked at [Xingkong Wuyu] beside him, where there were several other Survivors.

"Doesn't he want to do the mission? He came all this way but isn't going to fight, or is he planning something big?" [Xingkong Wuyu] said.

"I suspect he didn't come all this way to fight or do any mission. It feels like he has some kind of deal with that little robot, and that's why he came all the way to [The Wall of Infinity]."

[Kuangxuan Dabaji] Just a quick rant: the already tattered bronze armor he was wearing looks even more worn out now.

They are currently on an emerald-colored planet, the Second Habitable Planet— "Emerald Cradle".

At this moment, the Survivors of [Annihilation Abyss] chose the most direct method of attack—guerrilla warfare in the planet's near-Earth orbit.

Most of their powers possess a strong corrosive or infectious effect; once they come into contact with Yuncang's fleet or buildings, they immediately Spread and Corrosion, creating strange voids.

The Warship's laser shields failed upon contact, its armor silently melted away, and then the ship disappeared along with its crew.

Heavy Orbital Weapons cannot demonstrate the invincible dominance they possess in deep space in near-Earth regions. If they were to strike a planet directly, they would destroy several cities. At least for now, the Yuncang forces are still hampered, unable to strike even after Lock-On onto a target.

Moreover, these people use bizarre methods, constantly disappearing with the help of debris and space junk. The Wireless Fleet from the [Wall of Infinity] provides continuous support, with ships constantly turning into space fireworks. However, even more firepower is poured onto these invaders shrouded in various bizarre methods.

Under the cover of the chaos as both sides rapidly expended their resources, the Survivors of [ Under the Under the Starry Sky] silently entered the atmosphere aboard the disguised high-speed transport ships provided by the Qixing Republic.

Based on the provided coordinates, they landed precisely in a special forest about 500 kilometers away from the planet's energy core, [Eye of Emerald]. The surface here is covered with a strange plant that absorbs most electromagnetic waves, making it a natural detection blind spot.

Everyone had been preparing for several hours and was almost ready, but they were short of energy. Su Luo's Laboratory had been secretly following them and helping to provide Mana.

There is indeed a lot of Mana inside, but they cannot freely manipulate it.

Although there is a sparse amount of Mana in the environment of this planet, it is so scarce that even with full absorption, it is not as fast as the recovery rate of the group using consumables, let alone supporting the casting of super-large Spells.

"What do we do now? We're short of Scholars. They were supposed to be here soon, but if we don't have enough energy, we might not be able to wipe them all out..."

Then someone else spoke up.

Goushi looked up at the sky, where it was a Chaos, shattered by the energy radiance of the [Annihilation Abyss] and the fleet. If it dragged on any longer, it would enter the atmosphere.

Rivals are enemies; if the [Annihilation Abyss] comes in and causes trouble, their final rewards will be divided up...

After thinking for a moment, Goushi focused his gaze on the distant energy core, "Eye of Emerald," before looking down at the diagram provided by the Qixing Republic.

The images show a massive, complex energy structure that stretches hundreds of kilometers across the sky and underground. It is heavily guarded on the outside and has a complex network of internal passages, equipped with automated defense systems and monitoring nodes.

"We need the central energy point, and we also need your continued information," Goushi sent a message to the liaison personnel of the Qixing Republic.

Two minutes after the message was sent, a reply came, brief in content:

"Among the core defensive forces, one Pillar -level unit has been confirmed to be permanently stationed there. This Pillar -level unit is a 'Knight' from Starlight Cathedral, and its abilities and threat level are extremely high in the Emerald Cradle environment."

"However, there's no need to worry excessively; you may continue preparing for destruction."

"Lord Yun Sha has already set off and will appear in the relevant airspace 'at the appropriate time'."

"At that time, Knight, Lord Yun Sha will handle it."

Yun Cangyuan stood not far from Yun Sha, like a precision instrument stripped of its soul, meticulously fulfilling his duties as "Commander-in-Chief of the Three Armies." His commands flowed without a trace of emotion:

"Third Squadron, coordinates synchronized, executing the covert surveillance protocol. Be aware of optical camouflage and energy radiation convergence; avoid using active detection unless absolutely necessary. Seventh and Ninth Technical Teams, connect to the civilian data stream nodes in the target area according to Plan B, and conduct background noise analysis..."

His brain was working at high efficiency, processing tactical details, resource allocation, and communication encryption—purely technical tasks that allowed him to temporarily numb the insidious cognitive burden.

He was assisting a traitor to civilization, a "collaborator." But he knew all too well that any emotional resistance at this moment would be futile.

If he doesn't take the position, Yun Sha has plenty of people under his command who are eager to take it and have no qualms about it.

By doing so, he could at least remain temporarily at the center of the vortex of power and information, like a silent observer, watching firsthand what the Qixing Republic, Yun Sha, and other behemoth-like forces were up to.

Perhaps, in the final moments of the sinking, he could see things more clearly than those passengers who either faced death in a daze or cheered with joy.

After methodically arranging the latest round of infiltration orders, Yun Cangyuan turned around and walked towards Yun Sha, who stood quietly by the window. The [Wall of Infinity] outside the window was like a net embedded in the Starry Sky, capturing everything.

"The initial phase of the infiltration plan has been completed. A preliminary covert network is expected to be established within one hour, and the main attack can be launched three hours later."

"Everything's arranged, right?"

Yun Sha slowly turned around, a hint of appreciation on his face.

"Yes."

"... very good."

Yun Sha's voice wasn't loud, but it carried a certain, penetrating power. "Yun Cangyuan, do you know? Actually, I've already prepared a replacement for you. Your background, your resume, even your insignificant 'old ties' within this legion—to some people, these are all uncertainties."

Yun Cangyuan's expression remained unchanged, and he did not respond to Yun Sha's meaningful words. He simply waited silently for what was to come, like a reef waiting for the waves.

"But I'll still let you stay in this position."

Yun Sha took a step forward, getting close enough for Yun Cangyuan to feel the oppressive aura of a top-tier expert emanating from him.

"I've reviewed your command records and what you said during your time in the expeditionary force. You're a thoughtful person, and the object of your 'loyalty' seems to be quite different from those guys in the fleet who are only concerned with dividing up the spoils."

Yun Cangyuan remained silent.

Yun Sha didn't seem to expect a response from him, and continued speaking to himself, his tone carrying a hint of inscrutable emotion:

"A pack of wolves devouring a tiger will ultimately starve to death; a collapsing edifice will find its own timber. No matter how much the [Yuncang World] struggles, on the chessboard of [Ten Thousand Worlds], it is nothing more than a 'high-level chess piece' that has just been placed on the table and is destined to be consumed. As for us... we may not be without other places to play our pieces."

Yun Cangyuan remained silent for a moment, then guessed a word, his voice hoarse:

"... leave?"
