Didn't you just say you wouldn't rush?!

Guxue looked at Qingyang blankly, and Guxing also looked at him strangely.

The Star Sea Swarm, even though the main force and super-large swarms were blocked by the Star Sea Alliance in the barren zone, the small-scale swarms that had infiltrated were still very dangerous.

How could there be someone who got excited at the mention of a swarm?

Guxing suggested, "Although only very small-scale swarms can enter the Alliance's territory, you should still be careful."

"Of course I understand, I'm just following behind to take a look."

Guxing said nothing more; as long as his boss had a plan, that was fine.

The Radiant Moon Battleship cut through the subspace, rapidly advancing towards its destination.

Meanwhile, at Charka Star Lake.

A special ecological zone with a diameter of over thirty thousand light-years, spanning numerous ordinary and elite nations.

Massive amounts of high-energy matter and energy storms raged within, and countless cosmic life forms—Star Beasts—bred and thrived.

Dreamlike and dangerous.

Star Beasts, which generally possessed bodies hundreds or thousands, or even tens of thousands of meters long, could be called the pinnacle of individual power in the universe.

The weakest Level 1 Star Beast already possessed fourth-tier power, and some powerful ones could even contend with starships!

However, today, a certain area of Charka Star Lake welcomed even more dangerous visitors.

On the planet's surface, wrapped in a crimson energy mass, countless fleshy, carpet-like growths wriggled slightly.

Tens of thousands of massive biological structures rose from the ground, and as the flesh writhed, purplish-black energy mist was constantly produced.

Dense giant eggs expanded at a visible rate, with purplish-black light flickering within.

The Star Sea Swarm, a carbon-based void lifeform!

A natural disaster creature with strong resistance to both physical and energy attacks.

The nature of void life made them extremely difficult to kill, and they possessed terrifying corrosive properties.

The advantage of carbon-based life allowed the swarm to break free from the shackles of scarcity common to void life, possessing terrifying reproductive capabilities.

Squelch!

One of the massive eggs suddenly cracked, purplish-black energy diffused, and a black shadow over five thousand meters long churned within the energy.

As this giant egg broke, tens of thousands of surrounding giant eggs also lit up with an eerie glow.

Cracking sounds echoed one after another, and purplish-black void energy gradually enveloped the entire planet.

The crimson energy surrounding this planet was also gradually assimilated and corroded by the void energy.

Three hundred light-years away, at the Charka Star Lake border defense fortress.

"Damn it! The swarm's biological fleet has already formed!"

"How could it be so fast??"

"Swarm Will! This swarm has accessed the void transmission network of a medium-sized swarm."

The suddenly surging detection numbers caused a stir in the command center.

The Alliance Army Major frowned, "How many reinforcements are nearby?"

"3 T6 Fleets, 19 T7 Fleets, and three regular fleets from elite nations, totaling about eight thousand conventional warships."

The Alliance Army Major breathed a sigh of relief. Over eight thousand elite conventional warships, more than twenty starship fleets, plus the defense fortress with its ultra-long-range firepower.

Dealing with this swarm wouldn't be difficult.

"Just in case, immediately apply to the Frontier Alliance Base to dispatch five veteran T6 Fleets."

"Yes!"

The Major looked at the ultra-long-range monitoring screen again, feeling slightly uneasy. How did this swarm get in?

The monitoring network of Charka Star Lake had no issues. Could a void rift have appeared?

Buzzz~

The empty space rippled, and a white-gold warship suddenly appeared.

"Is this the assembly area ahead?"

Qingyang activated the detection equipment, looking around curiously.

"Why aren't there any warships?"

[Starship ahead, please state your purpose]

"Received a report of swarm activity here."

[Four hours ago, the main force began its attack on the area occupied by the Star Sea Swarm. Support fleets, please proceed immediately.]

With that, a coordinate zone appeared on Qingyang's star map panel.

[Radiant Moon Type Battleship, T8, new commander, please act with caution.]

Qingyang indicated he understood, and the Radiant Moon Ship re-entered subspace for warp.

In the command room, the Major watched the departing Shining Moon Type Battleship, frowning.

A new Commander with high talent?

Ah well, it fits the Alliance's training model anyway. No need to persuade them to turn back.

T8 Radiant Moon Battleships have 10,000 shield points. It's very difficult for them to get into trouble.

On the other side, the Charka Swarm occupied the star system.

Blinding beams and energy cannon fire ravaged the area, with several dazzling energy cannons even traversing the entire star system!

One planet could even be seen, completely shattered into fragments drifting in the universe.

Tens of thousands of kilometer-class swarm creatures, acting as warships, surged around the starships, forming a dense storm of black-purple beams and rays.

They fired towards the fleet in the distance.

Simultaneously, millions of octopus-like Zerg units, dozens of meters in size, charged towards the fleet.

Corruptors, possessing powerful energy erosion capabilities.

Black-purple patterns spread across their carapaces, weakening the light and energy attacks from the human fleet.

With each block, the purple-black patterns would dim slightly.

The three T6 Fleets at the forefront were a hive of activity within the local Star Net.

"The Star Destroyers still haven't found the enemy Biological Mothership?!"

"No, how about yours?"

"None, damn it, where is that Swarm Mother hiding!"

"Order the regular fleet's warships, excluding the Star Destroyers, to retreat. The datafication is too costly in terms of casualties."

BOOM! A storm of thousands of void rays engulfed the three fleets head-on.

Piercing high-frequency roars echoed throughout the cosmos.

"Damn it, I don't know why gene enhancers made our ears evolve further. This overclocked noise is too loud."

"I miss normal life's ears. The vacuum of space is so much quieter."

Facing such an onslaught, the Commanders and core crew of the three T6 Fleets showed no signs of tension.

At the edge of the battlefield, the Shining Moon Type Battleship emerged from its subspace state.

The moment it appeared, thousands of Corruptors surrounded it, gathering dense black orbs from their vortex-like mouths.

RUMBLE!

A large number of attacks drowned the battleship.

[Damage insufficient, immune]

[Damage insufficient, immune]

[.]

[Void Erosion, Shield Value forcibly -1]

[Void.]

Qingyang had just begun to relax, only to be startled again.

This doesn't seem like the swarm I remember?

Seeing the shield value decreasing very slowly, Qingyang immediately activated all the ship's cannons.

Dense beams, energy cannons, and even rays shot out simultaneously, turning the entire Radiant Moon Ship into a hedgehog that instantly pierced hundreds of the nearest Corruptors.

The area-of-effect main cannons followed, their fan-shaped torrent of attacks clearing nearly a thousand kilometers of space in front of them.

"Hahaha, this is the feeling!"

Qingyang laughed excitedly.

The Radiant Moon Battleship, with its powerful firepower, immediately attracted some attention on the battlefield.

On the flagship of a T6 Fleet, a Commander blinked: "T8 Radiant Moon? Rushing into the Void Swarm battlefield right after debuting?"

"The Biological Mothership carrying the Swarm Mother has appeared!"

"Wait! Damn it! Where did that come from?!"

A series of exclamations and angry shouts suddenly erupted on the Star Net channel.

A massive meatball over 100,000 meters in size appeared amidst a cloud of purple-black mist, hundreds of compound eyes flickering with eerie black light.

About a hundred kilometers in front of the Biological Mothership, a human ship was being held captive!

Qingyang also looked over, his expression changing immediately.

Cloud-Mountain Star Star Affiliated High School!

Star Lake Practice Sightseeing Ship!

Ah, these two chapters are just to show the Commander's extra effect functions. The main focus will be on interstellar battleship duels. Qingyang himself will rarely take action in the future.
