The moment the Insect Race warships led by Zhang Fan arrived at Cobalt Mine Star in the Bone Barge Galaxy, the sight of the so-called grand fleet of thirty million ships gave him a headache.
The so-called grand fleet was certainly grand in size, but its weapons, equipment, and hulls were all battered wrecks. It had practically no combat capability.
"These are decommissioned ships, aren't they? And they expect me to attack Cobalt Mine Star with this lot? They're sending me to my death, plain and simple."
