The Anunnaki had taken no precautions for this shipment.
When Halogen and his people launched their surprise attack on the convoy, the captain from the Fiery Sunbird Race was utterly dumbfounded.
"The Reaching Heaven Pavilion?" That was his first thought.
They had gone to great lengths to keep it from the Reaching Heaven Pavilion. Hardly anyone knew they intended to sell Void Lifeforms.
After all, it was the pavilion's market. Since they were suddenly moving in, they had to be careful. Their plan was to deliver the goods, finish building the mall, and reveal their intentions only when everything was ready.
But when they bought land on a large scale yesterday, they had somehow alerted the Reaching Heaven Pavilion. For some reason, those people were extremely sensitive to their land purchases and construction plans. They had deliberately picked fights and driven up prices to squeeze them out.
It made no sense. Sure, they had come to steal the pavilion's business, but their goods had not even arrived. They were only buying land. How could the Reaching Heaven Pavilion already be targeting them? Still puzzled, the Anunnaki captain proceeded with the original plan and secretly transported the Void Lifeforms to the Sirius Star System.
Then they were robbed. He could only conclude that their plans had leaked.

The Fiery Sunbird captain was furious, but the attackers clearly had no intention of answering him.
All he could do was request aid from the Sirius Star System's military at once, then commit everything to the fight.
Unfortunately, the enemy had come far too well prepared. Not only was every attacker wearing powered armor, they had also brought 190,000 Horned Shuttles to swarm the convoy.
Some shuttles fired high-energy lasers. Others darted through the formation, colliding with ships
