Viers Supercluster, Sasar Starfield.

This is next to Vitara Starfield where Chers is located, and is the strategic location currently being fought over by the Purgatory Legion and the Zerg.

Once this place is captured, Hypnos can turn to attack Chers without any scruples, without having to worry about a large number of Zerg surrounding him behind when attacking Chers directly.

Although, as an eighth-level creature, Hypnos is not afraid of the terrifying numbers of Zerg, nor is it afraid of being surrounded or close combat.

However, this does not mean that other seventh-level leader-level creatures are not afraid, nor does it mean that the following ethnic-level creatures who are ordinary warriors are not afraid.

You know, Purgatory Legion's biggest attack methods are all long-range types. Once surrounded by an endless sea of insects, the entire Purgatory Legion's combat power will plummet by more than half.

Although the individuals are powerful enough, their weakness is still the numbers.

Here, Hypnos has led the purgatory Second Legion to attack for more than a month, but the progress is surprisingly slow.

Until now, Purgatory Legion only accounts for 30% of Sasar Starfield.

After all, this place is already very close to Chers. Therefore, Aliya can continue to increase troops here at a very fast speed, using sheer numbers to completely slow down the opponent.

How did you say that sentence?

With such a huge number, even if they all stand still and wait for you to shoot them, they will tire you to death!

——

"Ola, this fight is really annoying to the dragon. Can't you send an elite force directly to Chers to block Current Mouth?"

He opened his mouth and sprayed out a terrifying ray, sweeping away the bugs in front of him. The very unhappy voice of Hypnos came to mind in Aura's mind.

During this period of time, it was simply bored, and it was not as enjoyable as the previous star field advancements.

Just like just now, I had just cleared away a bunch of bugs in front of me, but in just a few words, the cleared area was almost filled with bugs again.

After all, Aliya previously occupied more than a dozen star fields, their troops were scattered, and support was slow because of the distance.

But now, with only three star fields left, she could concentrate her forces for combat. Coupled with the distance problem, the swarms of insects that continuously entered the Wilster Super Galaxy Cluster from the rear of the Kempinian Super Galaxy Cluster could also quickly support the war zone.

This resulted in Hypnos's propulsion speed being limited to the greatest extent.

"Commander, no!"

"You also know that I am the only one in the legion who can accurately locate those disgusting parasitic insects. It would be too dangerous to split the troops into two groups!"

"Then what should we do? We can only fight slowly like this?"

"That's all we can do now!"

"Damn bugs!"

With a loud curse, Hypnos opened his mouth again, and shot a terrifying ray towards the insects that had just gathered in front of him!

——

Cosmic Current node, Chers.

"Calculating the time, the human fleet should arrive today, and Sasar Starfield can withstand it for at least more than a month."

Sensing the battle situation on the front line through Zerg Mental Network, Aliya also breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that the problem should not be big!

However, it was less than a minute after Aliya cut off the sensory sharing in Zerg Mental Network.

Hypnos, who was still fighting the Zerg in Sasar Starfield, suddenly disappeared!

"Marshal, Dark Energy Network received the message sent by Zerg Aliya!"

"Content?"

"Purgatory Legion has been blocked by me at Sasar Starfield. I can confirm that it will not be broken through for at least a month!"

"Sasar? Is Aliya too confident?"

After hearing Communications Officer's words, Lin Fan couldn't help frowning, and he strongly disagreed with Aliya's strategy.

Yes, normally speaking, Aliya is correct. Under the deterrent of Void Predator, the enemy dare not divide his troops and block it from Current Node.

But there is a very serious problem here, that is, Aliya has sent most of the insect swarms to Sasar Starfield. They are either fighting at Sasar Starfield or on their way to Sasar.

Although, according to Aliya's estimate, this can keep the other party in Sasar for at least a month, the question is, does the Federation need a month?

Lin Fan said he was speechless. It was clear that Federal Fleet would arrive in a few hours, but you were still sending all arriving Zerg reinforcements to Sasar. As a result, Chers's troops were obviously insufficient.

If the opponent has more than one creature that can locate Void Predator, or has a way to deal with Void Predator, and divides his troops to attack Chers, can Chers be able to stop it with your current strength?

If something goes wrong, not to mention that your channel for mobilizing Zerg forces from the rear will be cut off, even the Federation will have to face the danger of forcibly breaking through Current Node when it arrives at Chers.

"A bug is a bug. Even if you have advanced intelligence, you still take it for granted!"

"They have never understood that as a commander-in-chief, you must consider the worst-case scenario at all times, so as to leave more backup options when deploying!"

Just as Lin Fan thought, Aliya now transports an insect swarm to Sasar every time it arrives at an insect swarm, while Chers only leaves all the king insects and part of the king insect guards to garrison!

This is quite a dangerous situation.

"How much time do we have until we get out of the current?"

"Two hours, 15 minutes and 38 seconds, Marshal!"

"Put me through Lin Yu from Nether Fleet!"

"Yes, Marshal!"

Under Communications Officer's operation, Lin Yu's figure was quickly projected in the command center.

"Marshal, are you looking for me?"

"Yes, do you still remember which of the various situations we simulated before departure was the worst?"

"Are you saying that when we arrived at Chers, the Cosmic Current node had already been captured by Purgatory Creatures, causing us to be hit by Purgatory Creatures's concentrated fire as soon as we came out of the ocean current?"

Lin Yu's brows suddenly raised.

Before setting off, the father and son did simulate various situations of this battle. Among them, the worst situation was that before Federal Fleet arrived at Chers, Aliya had already failed, allowing Purgatory Creatures to control Chers!

Now I heard Lin Fan say this again. Could it be that the worst situation really happened?

"Not already, but because of Aliya's stupid deployment, the possibility of this situation happening has increased by at least 17.32%."

"Of course, even if Hypnos rushes to Chers now, it is impossible to capture it within 2 hours, even if the Zerg troops in Chers are not many."

"So, if Hypnos really divides its forces, then when you arrive, the most likely thing you will encounter is Chers, who is being attacked by Hypnos, causing chaos!"

Phew.

This made Lin Yu slightly relieved.

To be honest, if it were the worst-case scenario, Hypnos would have already taken control of Chers before the Federation arrived.

Then, the moment the fleet rushes out of Cosmic Current, it will face an overwhelming and powerful attack, and it will most likely pay an extremely huge price to rush out.

However, if the opponent just arrived at Chell and was fighting Aliya, the situation would be much better.

"Don't worry, isn't this the purpose of placing me in the first rank of the fleet?"

Smiling slightly, Lin Yu said.

This is also the best plan that the father and son came up with after simulating the worst-case scenario!

A-Class Dark Energy Manipulator and Lin Yu attack first, which can minimize the casualties of the fleet.

After all, according to previous reports, Jiang Feng, who is a B-level Dark Energy User, can briefly confront Hypnos with the help of Nether Class Warship, let alone Lin Yu, who is an A-level Dark Energy User.

With Lin Yu in check, the landing of the rest of the fleet will be much safer!

"Be careful!"

Standing next to Lin Fan, Liang Xue, as his adjutant, looked at the figure of Lin Yu in front of him, changed from his former cold image in the military, and said softly.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine!"

"You brat, don't underestimate the enemy. Don't forget the latest information provided by Aliya. Hypnos has become stronger after recovering from serious injuries. It is suspected that he has advanced!"

"Marshal, in fact, I am already in front of the entrance to advancement. The difference should be just an opportunity, and this time, it may be my opportunity!"

"You mean"

"That's right, S-Class Dark Energy Manipulator, which currently only exists in theory on paper, I can already feel that I am just short of the final touch!"

Hiss.

Lin Yu's answer was like dropping a bomb in the entire command center, causing everyone to take a deep breath.

You know, although the Federation has formulated the fifth level Dark Energy Manipulator, since no one has ever reached S level, S-Class Dark Energy Manipulator has always been considered by most people to be a fantasy of dark energy scientists.

But now, everyone in the command center heard it. Lin Yu of A-Class Dark Energy Manipulator said that he was only one chance away from a breakthrough, and his breakthrough was S-Class Dark Energy Manipulator!

What an amazing thing!

"You brat, can you say this kind of thing here?"

Looking at the somewhat turbulent command center, Lin Fan laughed and cursed.

Of course, Lin Fan is just saying it. In fact, he also very much agrees with Lin Yu directly making it public after becoming S-Class Dark Energy Manipulator.

After all, Lin Yu has reached this point. If A-Class Dark Energy Manipulator is really as Wei initially guessed, then no one in the entire federation can pose a threat to him. Therefore, there is no need to keep it secret to ensure his safety.

On the contrary, active exposure can be a very powerful deterrent.

This is true externally, but internally

The same is true!
