Although the "Final Defense Protocol" was powerful, it was still insignificant compared to the Federation.
Given enough time to develop, the "Final Defense Protocol" might be able to assemble a powerful mechanized fleet capable of dominating the known universe and restoring a vast interstellar mechanical empire.
But a step behind meant a step slow. The "Final Defense Protocol" had arrived in this universe far too late compared to the Federation.
Coupled with some inherent disadvantages, even if they took over the entire Angel Nebula, they would not be able to contend head-on with the Federation.
The other side simply didn't have time to build a complete pan-galactic defense system to deal with external threats.
Just like now.
Dozens of star systems were annihilated under superluminal strikes, a scene like the end of the world.
Faced with this situation, the "Final Defense Protocol" was helpless. Even with its extremely powerful central processor and high computational efficiency, it was of no use.
Driven by the "Galactic Grand Expedition" plan, the Human Federation's territory had now expanded to include a small part of the Orion Arm.
Currently, the Federation's territory accounted for about 1.3% of the total territory of the Orion Arm. The original plan to conquer the entire galaxy in a hundred years was still a long way off.
However, the Federation's new strategic deployment included the new "Gray Gu Storm" tactic, which would greatly shorten the timeline of the hundred-year plan to conquer the entire Milky Way Galaxy.
In the newly occupied territories, in addition to building necessary colonies to expand the Federation citizen base, various new celestial megastructures were being rapidly constructed.
The first new megastructures in the newly expanded territories had entered the final stages of construction and still required some time before they could be put into actual use.
What the Federation used to attack the "Final Defense Protocol" this time were only thirty "Falling Star Sky Spears" attached to the original 500 star systems.
Each "Falling Star Sky Spear" was like a long sword traversing between star systems, its might like hell, its momentum unstoppable!
The first wave of attacks from the thirty "Falling Star Sky Spears" destroyed thirty star systems in the Angel Nebula in one round.
Within these star systems, all the "Final Defense Protocol" sub-individual units that were included—
From the Titan flagship leading the unmanned mechanical fleet to the nano-level sub-individual units scattered like dust in space—all suffered a devastating blow!
Such losses could not be considered light.
But fortunately for these mechanical bodies, this round of strikes did not lock onto the location of the "Final Defense Protocol's" core matrix.
Otherwise, once the "central processor" was destroyed, most of their sub-individuals would fall into a state of "paralysis" or "loss of control," and the situation would become even more passive.
On "Organic Paradise," Merlot Star, within the Organic Sanctuary.
Keisha, Hexi, and a group of Angels suddenly received a large number of notifications:
"Warning, warning, warning!"
"The star domain under the jurisdiction of the 'Final Defense Protocol' is under attack by a powerful external enemy. The attacker is named the Human Federation and has been defined as an extremely threatening organic civilization!"
"This 'Organic Paradise' planet is currently within the absolute threat range. 'Protocol Three' is activated, prioritizing the protection of the lives of fragile organic beings..."
"Backup emergency plan is being activated to urgently transfer the organic beings protected by this planet..."
"What happened?"
Keisha was completely bewildered.
After being taken over by the "Final Defense Protocol," Keisha had been immersed in the joy of acquiring new knowledge and understanding new technologies for a period of time.
This leisurely and comfortable pace of life gradually made her relax, and she lost her previous sense of urgency, somewhat ignoring the external threats.
After all, with the existence of the "Final Defense Protocol," its power was evident to all Angels.
But such bad news arriving so quickly made Keisha's heart skip a beat.
Could it be that "Human Federation"?
How is that possible!
Even the "Final Defense Protocol" is no match for them?
Keisha's heart trembled. If even the "Final Defense Protocol" was not an opponent, then if they hadn't had the "Final Defense Protocol" supervising the entire Angel Nebula before...
Could they, relying solely on their Heavenly Blade Battleship fleet and the nine major defense lines of the Angel Nebula, withstand the attack of that "Human Federation"?
Probably not!
If they were defeated by the "Human Federation," the ultimate fate of the Angel Civilization would be extremely tragic.
After all, in the declaration of war submitted to them by the officials of the "Human Federation's" Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the other party publicly mentioned to the Angels:
"We will extinguish every star, and we will conquer every territory!"
"Until the voices of you alien scum and your scum-like civilizations are completely erased from this universe!"
If they fell into the hands of the "Final Defense Protocol," they could at least survive like pampered pets, living in so-called organic sanctuaries.
Moreover, the attitude of these mechanical bodies towards them was actually very gentle. Keisha had never felt any hostility from them.
Except for some protocols issued by the other party that were forcibly implanted into them, making all Angels feel collective discomfort.
In other aspects, these mechanical bodies were almost perfect.
Keisha even suspected that this "Final Defense Protocol" should actually be an ally of the Angel Civilization, rather than their guardian.
It was just that their civilization was too weak in comparison, which led to the implementation of the so-called guardianship protocol by the other party, turning them into pets raised by the other.
The reason for calling themselves "raised pets" was simply because Keisha hadn't completely shed her previous mindset as the King of Gods, the Angel King, commanding all directions.
In reality, their status was much better than that of pets.
Except for not being able to fly freely throughout the universe as before, soaring through every star system.
And not being able to issue orders as they pleased, appearing condescendingly before other civilizations...
Within this Organic Sanctuary, every Angel lived very happily and very peacefully.
Happier and more peaceful than any moment in the past tens of thousands of years.
Angels had almost everything they desired; if they wanted to learn knowledge, it was provided unconditionally, allowing them to progress.
If they wanted to fall in love, the sub-individuals of these "Final Defense Protocol" machines would automatically select the most suitable partners for them – male Angels transformed from God River Body humans from other Organic Sanctuaries.
Among the hundreds of star systems in the Angel Nebula, there were indeed some star systems where primitive and backward civilizations were born.
These primitive and backward civilizations, originally guided by the Order of Justice, believed in Angels and lived idyllic, happy lives, with few beings capable of autonomously developing to the spaceflight stage.
Angels also never interfered excessively in their civilization's development, nor did they help them develop technology, as it was unnecessary for them.
These civilizations were originally the "back gardens" of the Angels, but now, like the Angels, they had become "organic paradises" for the "Final Defense Protocol."
In the past, when an Angel Warrior grew tired of fighting and felt love blooming, they would fold their wings.
They would descend to the mortal world to engage in procreation, but this was a rare occurrence.
After all, Angels had lifespans of hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands of years; unless truly unbearable loneliness set in, few were willing to stoop to the level of mortals in their eyes.
But since arriving at this Organic Sanctuary, under the intentional regulation of the "Final Defense Protocol," such procreative behaviors have actually increased.
If this situation continues, the Angel population will experience a surge!
