Jiang Muzhou did not answer. His gaze was fixed on the red curve still climbing in the holographic projection.

The intensity of the energy fluctuations had already surpassed the baseline by eighteen times. At the edge of the red spot in the projection, cracks grew ever denser, like tempered glass struck by a heavy blow.

"Confirmed." He finally spoke, his voice steady. "The pattern of the spatial fluctuations perfectly matches the wandering Star Realms I've seen. It isn't coming straight at us; its trajectory is shifting. At its current angle, it'll skim past the outpost from the southeast."

He pointed at the spreading cracks along the red spot's edge. "Those cracks are caused by friction between the wandering Star Realm's spatial barrier and the primary space. If it were really going to collide with us, the cracks should be caving inward. But they're spreading outward now, which means it's braking."

Xu Wuyi stood before the tactical table, watching the red curve continue to rise.

The value had already exceeded nineteen times the baseline. Abysswatch City's entire energy Alarm System emitted a deep hum, its sound passing through the crystal walls into the command area and making everyone's teeth ache.

"It won't hit us." His voice remained particularly steady amid the hum. "But if it comes too close, the energy friction itself will cause trouble."

He turned to Zhao Beifeng. "Could the wandering Star Realm's energy fluctuations resonate with the outpost's energy circulation?"

Zhao Beifeng's brow furrowed even tighter. He had not considered that question. In the thirty-seven years since the outpost had been established, no wandering Star Realm had ever passed this close by.

"It's possible," a staff member said.

"According to existing data, the primary frequency of the wandering Star Realm's energy radiation is 0.37 hertz. The secondary frequency
