After several such attacks, the Wind Master were forced to disperse again. Seeing the Wind Master disperse, the Xuan Star Civilization fleet immediately changed its formation, activating the Space Cage Space Cage. Unlike the Space Barrier Space Barrier, which prevents warships from warping in the spatial turbulence, the Space Cage is different. The Space Cage warships are not completely in the spatial turbulence; they are more like a water cup, with only part of the hull in a special space. Moreover, the Space Cage is not a spatial turbulence, but rather a fixed space.

The Wind Master stopped fleeing and instead charged and attacked the Xuan Star Civilization warships that formed the spatial cage. The Xuan Star Civilization warships had no choice but to abandon the Space Cage, and countless ultra-long-range lasers rained down on the Wind Master warships. Although the Wind Master were also equipped with ultra-long-range lasers, they had not incorporated spatial rotation technology, and the Wind Master ' lasers were only 50 million degrees Celsius, which was not enough to pose a threat to the Xuan Star Civilization warships. However, the lasers emitted by the Xuan Star Civilization warships had a temperature of up to 200 million degrees Celsius. At this temperature, any matter would disintegrate.

In an instant, space was filled with energy spheres, high-energy lasers, and the explosions of warships. At this moment, even the warships of the Xuan Star Civilization dared not recklessly enter the warp state, otherwise the sudden increase in gravity would attract the energy spheres next to them or the lasers launched by their own fleet, which would be tantamount to suicide.

In the chaos, the Xuan Star Civilization was unable to re-establish its fleet formation and activate the Space Barrier. After all, the Xuan Star Civilization's warships still held an absolute advantage. As long as they avoided the impact of the energy ball and the Wind Master, the Xuan Star Civilization's warships would be safe. Moreover, the Xuan Star Civilization had complete control over the speed of the energy ball and could destroy it with a long-range laser before it could reach them.

The Xuan Star Civilization warships only need to maintain a sufficient distance from the surrounding Wind Master to remain invincible. However, with the two sides locked in a stalemate, there are always Wind Master who find opportunities to allow the energy spheres to attack.

When the number of Wind Master dropped to 80 million, the Xuan Star Civilization also lost 2 million warships. After all, Ji Wa only brought 10 million warships this time. The battle loss ratio between the two sides narrowed from 25:1 last time to 10:1. Ji Wa panicked a bit and quickly withdrew from the battlefield and reported the news.

Upon receiving Ji Wa's message, the Grand Commander of the Xuan Star Civilization within the territory of the Mu Star Civilization immediately ordered Bi Cha to lead 100 million warships to the scene of the incident. The Mu Star Civilization's territory was a full 4,500 light-years away from the vicinity of the vortex. Even at the Xuan Star Civilization's fleet's travel speed of 3,000 times the speed of light, it would still take a year and a half to arrive. The Grand Commander wished he could chop Ji Wa to pieces. This guy had actually exaggerated his achievements, and even after discovering the place where humans might exist, he only took 10 million warships there in order to avoid attracting attention.

Seeing his enraged superior, Bi Cha felt a little pleased. The fact that Ji Wa had shattered the human planet was just a pretext. The reason Bi Cha hadn't mentioned it was that Bi Cha didn't want Ji Wa to be punished too severely. After all, the two had been cooperating for tens of thousands of years. Although they were somewhat opposed, they weren't enemies.

Ji Wa devised another. This time, he set his sights on planets. While a fleet was difficult to destroy, planets were easier to conquer. One million Xuan Star Civilization warships separated from the fleet and headed straight for several surrounding planets.

The Wind Master fleet saw that the departing fleets had left behind 50 million ships to hold back the main force of the Xuan Star Civilization, while the rest flew towards the planet, creating the impression that they were doing everything they could to protect it.

However, due to their deliberate negligence, the Wind Master allowed the Xuan Star Civilization Civilization's warships to destroy several planets. The Wind Master immediately dispersed around the remaining planets, carrying them away to escape into the distance. However, they did not flee in the opposite direction from the Mu Star Civilization, but directly towards the Mu Star Civilization, because the spatial vortex was not far ahead.

The Wind Master remained in place went berserk, relentlessly attacking the Xuan Star Civilization fleet. In war, this kind of reckless attack is the most dangerous. Even Ji Wa was somewhat annoyed. Why did humanity always attack in this way? Even if the warships were unmanned, they shouldn't be wasting resources like this.

Just like herself, Ji Wa's fleet is also unmanned. However, Ji Wa still needs to command from the command ship, unlike humans who can control their ships from tens of thousands of light-years away. Ji Wa is heartbroken when warships are damaged, and each replenishment of warships feels like a death sentence for the warship production department.

Faced with the remaining 80 million Wind Master charging forward, Ji Wa could only manage a draw. Humanity's combat power had surpassed the Star System Level, and they could completely wear him down with their numerical advantage.

The Wind Master, carrying several planets, were already fleeing. Ji Wa's main fleet was being held back, and they could only send a few warships to follow at a distance while waiting for the main force to arrive. Once the main force arrived, it would be the end for these humans. At this moment, more than 100 light-years away from the battlefield, 200,000 Wind Master quietly escaped, carrying two giant energy spheres.

Faced with the relentless pressure from the Xuan Star Civilization, the Wind Master became even more frantic. However, the Xuan Star Civilization Civilization's warships were far more powerful than the Wind Master'. Even with Wind Master desperate counterattacks, the Wind Riders couldn't wipe out all of the Xuan Star Civilization Civilization's warships, especially those that were tracking the transport planet from afar. Once they were out of the battlefield, the Wind Master couldn't even touch them.

" Xuan Star Civilization, spare us humans and give you the technology of the Energy Sphere. I know you desperately want this technology."

"Sir, news has arrived from the humans."

"We know. Reply to them, kill them, and we'll naturally find a way to obtain their technology."

"Good."

" Xuan Star Civilization, don't push us. If we can't survive, we'll destroy all our technology before our demise, and you won't get a single piece."

"Humans, I have high hopes for you. Give up resistance, give up fleeing, and surrender to our Xuan Star Civilization. I guarantee that our leaders will not exterminate you."

"Submit? Do you think we humans are fools? Stop talking nonsense. Either let us go and give us your energy ball technology, or you continue on your way and get nothing."

"Humans, don't think we can't help you once you're inside the spatial vortex. You can't escape. Obediently submit to us, hand over your technology trees, and we'll spare your lives."

"Dream on! If you're so capable, come and take it from the whirlpool, haha."

"Sir, why don't the humans just escape? Why do they insist on going into the vortex? Do they think they can defeat us inside it?"

"They have nowhere to escape. Even if they can hold off our warships for now, they know we will definitely send reinforcements. They are not as fast as us, and once we catch up, it will be their end, being caught in the whirlpool. They can only buy themselves some time, or perhaps they can take down some of our warships."

"They escaped from the last spatial vortex; surely no one will come to their rescue this time."

"How much power do you think a wandering civilization can have? They suffered enormous losses more than 3,000 years ago, and it's already quite impressive that they can muster a hundred million warships now. This time, we must nip it in the bud and eliminate it forever!" Ji Wa said fiercely.

"Sir, are we just going to stand by the whirlpool and wait for them to be destroyed by it again?"
