Plan

Three days after the plan was finalized, Old Wang led countless Player on their journey.

This was another unprecedented grand event, and it was an extraordinary spectacle for all the Player.

For this operation, the Alliance assigned them a massive fleet consisting of one Star Lodge Class Starship, two Nebula-class Starship, and countless auxiliary ships.

These Starship have no NPCs on board; they are entirely piloted by Player.

Old Wang was appointed as the commander-in-chief of this operation; their destination was the White Lotus Cult Headquarters, which they had extracted from the prisoners through torture.

The Legendary White Lotus Divine Kingdom!

Legendary has it that this place, like Heavenly Prison Star, is a giant, mobile Starship.

That's exactly the case, and the core technology here was actually obtained from Heavenly Prison Star. Don't forget where the high-ranking members of the White Lotus Cult Sect escaped from.

But this did not stop everyone from finding their location, because the Federation had obtained a Permanent Recorder from a White Lotus Cult Fanatic.

The sole purpose of this thing is to always point to the White Lotus, thus providing Player with direction.

No matter where your White Lotus is located, they can find it.

For some reason, despite their grand voyage this time, they didn't encounter Swarm. They were almost at White Lotus Star, yet they hadn't encountered a single insect.

Something's not right! Something's not right!

Looking at the quiet Starry Sky, Old Wang said two things in a row that didn't seem right.

"What's wrong?"

"Don't you find it strange that we haven't encountered a single insect after sailing for so long?"

Look how fiercely the Swarm resisted when we were exploring the Planet.

Also, we should have already reached the White Lotus's warning range, but they haven't made a single move.

This is absolutely abnormal!

Old Wang's confident appearance made everyone more cautious.

After all, this was the advice of the Thousand King, and countless examples have proven to them that those who didn't heed his advice are already doomed.

"Boom!"

Just as everyone was focused on the explosion, a sound suddenly came from the Player's Star Lodge Class flagship.

The explosion was incredibly powerful; the Starship's main guns and other vital facilities were completely destroyed.

"What's going on?" the people who had come out to view the apartment asked.

"We have White Lotus spy among us! He self-destructed and destroyed the Starship's main cannon," one of them said.

"What a madman!" the crowd cursed.

"Boom!"

Just as they were about to start cursing, another tremor came from beneath their feet, and then they watched as part of the main ship was blown up again.

But this time it wasn't the people on the ship who did it; it was the White Lotus Cult's Starship that arrived.

Or perhaps they were always here, just hidden in the Starry Sky.

"Set up formation and fire!" Old Wang shouted from behind the scenes, Player immediately began to move, and then the two sides began to exchange fire.

Countless rays and projectiles exploded in the Starry Sky, illuminating the entire Starry Sky.

Although the Player's fleets had considerable firepower, they were the ones being ambushed, and the White Lotus Cult's firepower was even stronger, so they began to retreat steadily.

If Starship don't work, then it's a fight to the death. Countless Player take off at the same time under command and attack together to destroy a single enemy Starship.

Although the Starship activated its shields, it was still overwhelmed and shot down in an instant by the attacks of countless Player.

This is because some people immediately took out their Demon-Breaking Cone after seeing the Barrier Formation, and the shield didn't even last for a few seconds.

Once the shields broke, the Starship couldn't withstand so many attacks and was sunk.

After sinking one ship, they turned to another, but the enemy's overwhelming attack arrived.

The Bayonet Squad was immediately severely damaged, with less than one in ten Player surviving the attack.

But they had achieved their goal; they absorbed a wave of fire, giving the Player's Starship force a chance to retreat.

But before they could even begin to act, a curtain that obscured the entire Starry Sky extinguished everyone's hopes.

At this stage, the Player are still struggling to deal with the madmen of the White Lotus Cult; they are far inferior to the White Lotus Cult in both strength and manpower.

Although they were not afraid of death and dared to charge forward, the White Lotus Cult's firepower was too strong.

The Player used every ounce of their strength and managed to shoot down half of their Starship.

At this moment, all the Starship they had brought had been destroyed, and only a few experts remained of their personnel, including Old Wang.

Amidst a flurry of attacks, the Lord of the Elements dodged and weaved as he charged toward a White Lotus Cult Starship.

Flame energy gathered on his fist and slammed heavily onto the Starship. In no time, the Starship turned completely red, and then flames burst out from the inside. A Galaxy-Class Starship several hundred meters long was destroyed by Old Wang with a single blow.

After dealing with that Starship, he headed towards the next Starship, but in reality, he was already being watched by the enemy.

He didn't know when, but seven Starship formed a barrier around his body, trapping him inside.

They didn't attack him; they just kept him trapped, seemingly intending to capture him alive.

Just then, Old Wang activated a Communicator, trying to call for reinforcements.

Everything that happened today was actually part of the Alliance Leadership's plan. They deliberately sent Old Wang, the Player, and several Starship to their deaths.

The goal was to lure out the White Lotus Cult's hidden forces in the Starry Sky and the true location of their base.

They hadn't held any illusions about this suspicious pointing device from the start; it was clearly riddled with doubts.

Otherwise, why would they only send Player? They certainly know that Player alone cannot pose any threat to the White Lotus Cult.

Only Old Wang, the commander, knew this among the Player. In their words, "You won't actually die anyway, so what's wrong with being bait?"

After considering it for a while, Old Wang agreed; he agreed in order to destroy the White Lotus Cult.

But the Alliance disappointed Old Wang; after he used the Communicator, which was said to be able to break through all blockades, there was no response from Starry Sky.

There were still problems within the Alliance Interior; they failed to capture all the Traitor, allowing the other side to learn about the plan in advance.

It's a Miracle that humanity hasn't been wiped out, given that even the Core Council is corrupt.

Old Wang is now trapped and being transported away by these seven Starship, while the remaining Player have all been wiped out.

After they were all dead, a Dreadnought-class Starship tore through the curtain and arrived, but the place was already deserted.

One of the men behind them reported, "This is the last place the signal was transmitted. It seems Captain Thousand King is in grave danger."

"Understood!" General Zhang said calmly. No one could detect any emotion in his tone, as if the person to be captured by the White Lotus Cult for experiments was not a human, but a cat or dog.

Most people assumed he was suppressing his emotions and didn't bother to provoke him.

But some people just had to go up and complain. One person stepped forward and said directly:

"I knew this operation was unreliable!"

All that investment and loss of lives, and all we got were some of the enemy's underlings, plus the loss of a genius!

"If they get their hands on his Mecha, we'll be in real danger!"

Before the man could finish speaking, General Zhang pressed him down on the spot and asked, "How did you know the other party wanted his Mecha? I don't recall telling you that!"

The man was rendered speechless by the question; he had actually revealed his own innocence.

The discovery of a Traitor before General Zhang and his team even began their internal purge was an unexpected bonus.

"As you can see, the Alliance Interior a terrible state. Let's begin the purge!" he said to Xun Min after taking the man away.

The other party nodded to indicate that they had received the message. What these people didn't tell Old Wang was that they deliberately delayed their support; their purpose was to address the problems within the Alliance Interior.

They knew that someone had tampered with Old Wang's distress signal device, and that someone had tipped them off about their "plan".

But this was precisely their real plan: to use this opportunity to completely eliminate the White Lotus Cult spies within the Alliance Interior.

The plan went unexpectedly smoothly, and the White Lotus Cult's level of attention to Wang Qianduo exceeded everyone's expectations.

It seems they traded away all the undercover agents they'd cultivated within the Alliance over the years for Old Wang.

In short, the NPCs on both sides were very satisfied with the operation; the only ones who found it difficult to accept were the Player.

But who cares about them? In their eyes, Player are nothing more than cannon fodder that can be used indefinitely.

Even Old Wang is nothing more than a high-ranking cannon fodder.
