Meanwhile, Black Hawk’s chaotic raids plunged the Sauron Alliance’s defenses into disorder, and Sauron the 326th received a troubling new battle report.

Zi Yun agreed to cooperate with Chen Mo despite her concerns that the process would expose her memories.

Suo Li recognized the pressure as a conspiracy but faced the prospect of losing command as the Alliance’s leaders considered appointing a second commander.

• The Night Owl Battle Division secured Ghost Bird Star and connected it to Ant Army Group starfields, while Xiao Li’s attacks exploited the Sauron Alliance’s Dark Matter shortage and destroyed an elite division.

Chen Mo mastered Planet-Level Mind Control and used it to stop a tribal battle, then redirected both sides to hunt together. Despite Lan, Zhao Min, and Xiao Yu warning him against it, he decided to go to the Sauron Alliance front lines to test his abilities and equipment, arriving at the command center with Mo Nv.

• Chen Mo asked Xiao Li to identify a defensive position on Colorful Bird Star and planned to control the Sauron Alliance’s leaders while Xiao Li coordinated the attack.
• Chen Mo and Mo Nv appeared in Colorful Bird Star’s command center, where Chen Mo controlled Shang Xinghe and the surrounding soldiers.

Chen Mo used Mo Nv to take control of the Sauron Alliance’s core leadership, forcing the alliance to surrender without a decisive battlefield defeat. After Suo Li joined the Ant Army Group and Gun Xi retired, the Soren King publicly signed an unconditional surrender and ceded the alliance’s star territory.

• Chen Mo demonstrated that Mo Nv could alter the council members’ consciousness, then declared that the war should end.
• The Ant Army Group secretly seized control of the Sauron Alliance’s leadership and began reshuffling its upper ranks under Zhu He and Lan.

• The Soren King publicly signed an unconditional surrender, and the Sauron Alliance’s star territory was incorporated into the Ant Army Group.

The universe’s powers struggled to explain the Ant Army Group’s nearly costless annexation of the Sauron Alliance, and several strategists suspected superpowers had secretly controlled its leaders. Zi Luo realized the projections had overlooked the possibility that the Sauron Alliance’s higher-ups had been made into “idiots.”

• Tong Qing and Yan considered whether the Ant Army Group had secretly controlled the Sauron Alliance’s higher-ups, recalling the massacre in the Ziwei Civilization.

Lei Yu publicly explained the Thunder God Civilization’s successful simulation of the Ant Army Group’s war to annex the Sauron Alliance, arguing that superpowers and spatial traversal made the seemingly impossible victory plausible. He left military leaders across the universe confronting a new model of warfare for the age of superpowers.

• Lei Yu ordered a universe-wide livestream to reveal his team’s simulation of the Ant Army Group’s war against the Sauron Alliance.
• Lei Yu explained that simulations failed until his team considered superpowers as a factor capable of changing the course of war.
• Lei Yu proposed that an Ant Army Group superpowered individual could have controlled Soren King and the Sauron Alliance’s senior leaders, enabling infiltration and unconditional surrender.
• Lei Yu argued that spatial traversal, as demonstrated by Chen Mo, Mo Nv, and White Star Old Chief, could let such an individual bypass defenses and reach the leaders.
• Lei Yu presented the simulation as a valid new mode of warfare and named the Ant Army Group its pioneer.

Meanwhile, Gray Twenty-One arrived at Bai Shuang’s hiding place in the Land of Chaos, and Bai Shuang sensed danger just as someone appeared behind him.

• Chen Mo and Lan agreed to stabilize the Sauron Alliance, study superpowered warfare, and strengthen their own forces before expanding again.
• Lei Yu’s livestream analysis prompted powers across the universe to rethink warfare and take precautions against the Ant Army Group’s abilities.
