Feng Jun was in no hurry to notify Hesheng simply because he did not want them to know how quickly he could load and unload goods. Who could have imagined that the Insect Race would launch a surprise attack in the middle of the night?
Fortunately, he had planned to notify He Runxian four hours later, so he had not left. The moment he discovered the Insect Race attacking, he connected to He Runxian's radio. "The Energy Stones have arrived. The Insect Race is about to attack."
He Runxian had not rested either, as he too had been waiting for news of the Energy Stones. He received the message immediately.
But before he could rejoice, he heard the latter half of it and froze. "The Insect Race is attacking? When?"
The moment his question went out, warning sirens blared throughout the base—the alarm for an Insect Race attack.
Immediately afterward, the central dispatch center sent an alert and a request for instructions. "Supervisor He, the insects are about to attack. Should we activate the dome defense field over No. 3 Storage Yard?"
The storage yard's dome defense mainly relied on the energy field supplied by Energy Stones. Its own physical defenses were not particularly strong.
Although the dome's construction materials were extremely tough, it was a structure with an enormous span and lacked support. Moreover, the dome prioritized being light and thin, so it naturally could not be considered sturdy.
"Activate it, activate it now!" He Runxian immediately shouted. "Notify the transport teams too—get them into the yard immediately!"
The order had been issued, but to facilitate Mr. Broker's operation, the dome's energy field had previously been shut down completely. Cameras, sensors, and other equipment had also all been physically removed. For a time, people swarmed about in frantic activity.
