Thorne stared at the holographic map, equally dumbfounded.
He, too, had been stunned by this sudden turn of events.
On the holographic map, a brilliant little green dot suddenly burst apart, blooming into an enormous firework across that area.
That was no ordinary green dot. On this map, it represented a human base.
At present, humanity had only two bases in the Corgi Star System: Nail and Outpost.
Nail, where they were now, remained intact. Naturally, the trouble could only have struck Outpost.
Judging by the scale of the disturbance, Outpost had probably been destroyed—and utterly destroyed at that.
"Azureans!" Thorne said through gritted teeth.
Commander Gao fell silent for a few seconds before saying, "It looks like we really did underestimate the Azure Empire!"
"Their anti-invisibility capability isn't limited to detecting cloaked A3 Fighter Aircraft within a certain range. They also have some kind of tracking capability. During the previous engagements, they most likely tampered with one of our A3 Fighter Aircraft, allowing them to discover the Outpost Base."
"Replay the earlier footage, frame by frame!"
Through footage transmitted by the ultraminiature satellite, Commander Gao and the others clearly saw that, one second before Outpost exploded, the towers in every city on the side of Coral Star facing the Outpost Base had all erupted with intense light.
Those beams crossed hundreds of thousands of kilometers, lighting up the heavens and striking the Outpost Base simultaneously.
Although the moon was enormous, the simultaneous assault of dozens of beams shattered it in an instant.
Thorne frowned. "Could they have discovered this base too?"
"Whether they have or not, we have to prepare for the worst!" Commander Gao said quickly. "We need Master Qiao to come here and immediately build another backup base nearby. We can't put all our eggs in one
