The situation developed exactly as anticipated. With the Epoch Clan having no special tricks to play, they had managed to stabilize things slightly by resorting to a short-sighted measure. But once the Zerg completed their new Star Gate and massive reinforcements reached the front lines, that fragile balance was instantly shattered.

In fact, over the past few years, the Epoch Clan had shifted from holding a slight advantage to suffering a slight disadvantage. After all, the Epoch Clan's reinforcements were a one-time affair, while the Zerg's were endless. This was only because the Zerg relied on a trade-lives-for-lives style of fighting, resulting in relatively high casualty rates. Otherwise, their numerical advantage would have widened even further.

Once the new troops joined the battlefield, that advantage in numbers widened without suspense. To deal with these suddenly increased reinforcements, the Epoch Clan could only find a way to raise another force to keep them in check.

There was no need to think hard about the solution. The Epoch Clan had no other options, so a new wave of mass migration began.

The combat strength of both sides reached balance once more, with the Epoch Clan even holding a slight edge. Everything seemed like history repeating itself.

But just as before, the Epoch Clan's reinforcements were rootless duckweed, while the Zerg's flowed in steadily. As time passed, the Zerg's forces once again gained the upper hand, and the advantage shifted.

However, there was one difference. Reinforcements from the four extraterritorial bases kept arriving without end. By the projections, the Zerg would not need to add any more extraterritorial bases. If this continued for merely twenty years, the Epoch Clan would be forced to carry out a third round of migration.

How long this war lasted did not really matter to a long-lived species
