After confirming that the source of the information was legitimate and that the surrounding area was indeed safe, the crimson warship relayed the information back. The amazing quantum entanglement effect allowed the information to be transmitted without hindrance to the friendly forces currently in the Warp Bubble.

In the empty void, another crimson warship leaped out, followed by more and more warships, each with the same design and paint scheme. The crimson warship that had resembled an elite unit was actually just a mass-produced, ordinary model.

Despite the assurances of safety from the Coalition Army forces, the warships that subsequently jumped out remained vigilant. They deeply understood the principle that it was better to rely on oneself than on others.

Numerous spherical probes were launched and flew into the distance, simultaneously conducting detailed scans and observations of this star system. Given the proximity to Zerg territory and the Zerg's cloaking technology being common knowledge within the Alliance, no amount of caution was excessive when dealing with such a formidable enemy.

The Coalition Army didn't take the Lashudia Clan's distrustful behavior seriously. After all, they were just Coalition Army, and the Lashudia Clan's eccentric nature had secretly made them countless enemies. Given the right opportunity, more than 20% of the Coalition Army wouldn't mind kicking someone when they were down. So they should indeed be more careful.

Learning from the experience of the Yuntu Clan, the Lashudia Clan reorganized their forces on the way. They concentrated a large number of warships equipped with Quantum Communication Device and incorporated them into the vanguard, so that even if they were trapped, they could still transmit information.

Therefore, all the warships that have appeared now are capable of transmitting messages. Through continuous communication, more and more warships have emerged and immediately begun reconnaissance work.

As more and more warships relayed confirmation of safety back to their home ships, the main force of the Lashudia Clan finally began to descend. However, the number of standard warships, each 4,500 meters long, plus other functional vessels, had already exceeded 200 million.

Although the Coalition Army has done its best to provide convenience for the Lashudia Clan, it will still take a considerable amount of time for the entire massive fleet, which numbers over two hundred million, to arrive.

Conservatively estimated, this period will take two to three years. This is why, at the meeting, the Lashudia Clan fleet was said to arrive in seven years, while Mowei requested a ten-year wait.

Troops traveling at warp speed are most vulnerable when they first break away from their assembly. If it were just the Lashudia Clan alone, no matter how eccentric their nature, they would never dare to jump to their current position.

Fortunately, the Coalition Army provided them with initial protection, with numerous patrols surrounding the area in layers, conducting continuous patrols. Meanwhile, fleets from three other Mid-Ring Civilizations were stationed nearby to ensure their safety.

But the Zerg seem to have suddenly become more laid-back. Since their last battle with the Ketu Clan, they haven't launched any large-scale operations. In the past few years, they haven't even engaged in small-scale harassment. If it weren't for the large number of racial fleets gathered here, looking like they were sharpening their knives, one would think that we've returned to a peaceful era.

As more and more Lashudia Clan warships arrived, they gradually took over the defense work. After all, it's never as reassuring to have outsiders defend the area as to have your own people. Although the Zerg hadn't made a move for many years, the security work couldn't be taken lightly.

But even after the complete arrival of the 200 million-strong army of the Lashudia Clan, the Zerg made no move, which was both a relief and a source of confusion.

"The Zerg have changed over the years and are no longer the Zerg as they used to be."

"What exactly are they trying to do? Are they just going to stand by and watch our army gather?"

"What can we do if we don't watch? We currently have over two billion warships in their No. 1 Star System alone, while the Zerg have only increased their forces in the No. 1 Star System by one billion over the years, reaching three billion. There's simply no comparison in terms of combat power."

"That's right. Even the weakest race in our team, in terms of warship size and firepower, completely outclasses the Zerg's standard units." The Zerg standard units the Alliance was referring to were the Ancient Class Space Octopus, which were 500 meters long and indeed incomparable to warships that were several kilometers long.

"Haha, you're making it sound like the Zerg are worthless. No matter how bad they are, with the same numbers, crushing those Outer-Ring Civilizations would be a piece of cake."

"Exactly, after all, the Zerg have already transitioned to the Dark Energy system era, and those Outer-Ring Civilizations have no way to deal with such Zerg."

"They're pretty much the same. The Zerg's standard units are small, which is a major weakness. One hit from a Dark Energy system's main cannon and they're done for, Controlled Fusion system's Energy Main Cannon would only take two or three hits. What's the difference?"

The speaking alien race resembled Blue-Haired Monkey and was one of the first alien races the Zerg encountered. When the Epoch Clan sent researchers to the Riken Race, one of the New Epoch Clan had this appearance. Little did they know that his own race was actually a powerful Mid-Ring Civilizations.

"The difference is huge, it's two or three times different, okay?" another outsider retorted dramatically.

"Alright, although what Fuyi said was a bit... well, with our current forces, it's impossible to completely overwhelm the Zerg, but we do have a significant advantage. Winning this battle shouldn't be a problem."

"However, the Lashudia Clan is now leading this battle. History will only highlight the commanders, while we will probably just be mentioned briefly."

"What else? Who told you not to seize the opportunity back then?" The speaker, a member of the Mid-Ring Civilizations who had arrived within the last decade, looked down on the actions of the previous civilizations.

"Pshaw, how could our Coalition Army forces back then compare to what we have now? If we had the strength we have now, I could do it myself. I wouldn't even need to give orders; I could just push through."

"There's nothing we can do about it. It was the Lashudia Clan that brought all this up, and given their strength, you can only be envious."

"Kid, you looking for trouble, huh?"

"Snort!"

"Alright, alright, now is not the time to argue. The Lashudia Clan fleet is fully assembled, and the time for all-out war is not far off, but I still feel like something is not right."

"Indeed, there are some. I think it's because things are too calm. According to intelligence, most of the Zerg forces are still sunbathing, completely lacking the tension of an impending major battle."

"As I just said, perhaps they knew they were going to lose and gave up the fight beforehand. If I had known I was facing a certain death in battle, I would have gone sunbathing too."

"Use your brains, will you? Those are a bunch of mindless Biological Weapon. If your warships knew they were going to lose, would they have gone to sunbathe on their own?"

"You!..."

"Alright, alright, stop arguing." The foreigner, who had acted as peacemaker three times in such a short time, was getting a little tired. He began to doubt whether discussing the situation with these allies was the right choice.
