Crete Empire Capital Sphere

Lin Yu had no intention of arguing with the local garrison fleet.

Of course, he had no intention of starting a full-scale battle here, either.

To the Federation, this was an unfamiliar star cluster. With insufficient intelligence, any rash move could lead to an unpleasant outcome.

After all, this was merely a reconnaissance operation by a small fleet. He had only brought one hundred thousand warships, hadn't he?

"Commander, all acquired intelligence has been compiled, including the Star Chart of the star cluster we're in and basic information on the Crete Empire."

A few minutes later, the technical team had finished analyzing all the information obtained through the intrusion.

There was not much content. Just as they had reported earlier, without alerting the other side, they could only obtain basic information that was not deeply classified.

However, this was enough for Lin Yu—more than enough for him to formulate the next step based on this intelligence.

He opened his terminal, pulled up the files sent by the technical team, and began reading them carefully.

"The Crete Empire, a Seventh Order Civilization, controls the Hilderic Star Cluster that leads to the Vilsert Current. Its capital system is located in the Losak System?"

This information further confirmed one thing for Lin Yu: namely, that

the Bosnia Supercluster was absolutely not the lair of the Purgatory Creatures. Moreover, even if their lair was not in a supercluster adjacent to the Viers Supercluster, they could never have entered the Viers Supercluster through the Bosnia Supercluster.

Otherwise—

A Seventh Order Technological Civilization could never have survived beneath the iron hooves of the Purgatory Legion.

"Their capital system isn't far from us. Send out the coordinates. The entire fleet departs in three minutes!"

"Yes, Commander!"

What could one hundred thousand warships accomplish?

Conquer the entire Crete
