In the Dark Universe, the golden fleet glimmered faintly amid the turbulent darkness, racing forward at a speed no other ships could match.
Leading it was an Empire-Class legion flagship that had never appeared in the dark matter universe before: the twenty-one-kilometer-long Human Emperor's Blade.
This sacred, magnificent ancient starship had served as the great Ancient Entropy Human Emperor's personal vessel for five hundred years.
After the Ancient Entropy Human Emperor's new vessel, the Light of Humanity, was completed, he had handed it over to his First Guard Regiment.
The enormous ship had a strikingly sharp, slender, and beautiful silhouette.
Its vast hull resembled a giant sword in the hands of a titan who could cleave the heavens.
The dark gold decks were covered in all manner of sacred runes invented by the great Human Emperor.
Those sacred runes were what glowed now.
In essence, they formed a special resonance magic array, part of the Human Emperor's Blade's jump system.
Combined with the specialized jump technology of the Golden Webway established by the great Human Emperor, they could achieve extraordinary speeds far beyond other jump engines of their era.
Kilman's fleet had now been underway for two months.
He had received word as soon as the incident involving Su Yi occurred.
That news had not come from the Players, however, but through a direct revelation from the Golden Saint King.
At the time, the Golden Saint King had held a brief, straightforward conversation with Kilman.
No one knew what they had discussed.
Afterward, however, Kilman had become calmer and more reserved. Unlike last time, he had not flown into a rage over the attack on Su Yi.
Now, Nine Blades' ancient fleet had left some warriors behind to hold the Storm Nom Sector.
Its main force had set out immediately.
