I understand a little better now.
"Also, last time we controlled the energy sphere to explode in a directed manner and impact space. This time, the star explodes from the center, impacting all surrounding space. Although the order in which the star is detonated is controlled, it can still achieve a certain directed impact effect, but it is far inferior to the explosion of the energy sphere."
"However, this time it can still cause a large spatial fluctuation, like a boulder being thrown into a calm lake. Disturbing the territory of the Xuan Star Civilization is no problem. Now, taking advantage of the chaos, we can send miniature spaceships to secretly approach the planet where the Xuan Star leader is located. With such a large-scale operation, the Xuan Star leader cannot possibly stay in the planetary fortress and not come out."
"Don't worry, Academician, two miniature spacecraft have already infiltrated the low orbit of the Xuan Star Civilization civilization's leader's planet to monitor his movements at any time. As soon as he shows his face, our omnipresent photons can immediately strike him," Wen Zhonghua said confidently.
"Leaders, we have just detected that the Xuan Star Civilization's warships have returned and are no longer pursuing you. You may now assemble at a distance and slowly approach the Mu Star Civilization."
The combined fleet withdrew just as the Xuan Star Civilization's warships set off. Although the combined fleet's speed was only 2,000 times the speed of light, it would take more than three months for warships from the Xuan Star Civilization's territory to reach the location of the exploding star. During this time, the combined fleet had already traveled more than 500 light-years.
If the Xuan Star Civilization fleet wants to catch up with the Joint Fleet, it could take several years. Currently, the Xuan Star Civilization needs strength, so Bi Cha has not dispersed its combat forces but has concentrated them all for action. This is more conducive to ensuring the safety of the people.
In just 50 days, the entire population of the Xuan Star Civilization was transferred to warships or spaceships. More than 30 billion warships were deployed in the center of the territory, and more than 400 industrial planets had been moved to the vicinity of the antimatter star. Planets in the distance were also about to reach this airspace. Now that the population had all boarded the ships, the fleet was about to set sail and leave this place.
Suddenly, the space within the territory of the Xuan Star Civilization churned, and an endless swarm of insects descended upon it. As soon as these insect swarms arrived, they attacked the nearby Xuan Star Civilization warships.
"Chief, something terrible has happened! Please board the ship immediately, the swarm of insects is approaching!" Bi Cha said anxiously.
How many?
"There are estimated to be 15 to 20 units, with the highest level being 20. The fleet is currently resisting and covering the evacuation of civilians."
"What? So many! How's the situation now?"
"Chief, the Zerg swarm has surrounded our civilian fleet. They are flying at will in the air, making it impossible for our fleet to navigate normally. Now the fleet can only fight back step by step, but there are just too many Zerg. Tier 19 Zerg can break through our warship armor. We are in a very dangerous situation."
"Hold on, I'll Great Star Region Civilization right away."
The leader took out a small device and immediately input the coordinates and swarm information into it. This device was recently transmitted by the Great Star Region Civilization. Once you reach the Intermediate Stage of Small Star Sector, you will receive this device. Receiving this device means that you will soon be entering the defensive line for combat.
After the war with humanity, the Xuan Star Civilization, through thousands of years of accumulation, has returned to normal and made significant technological progress, reaching the level of Small Star Sector Intermediate Civilization. In recent years, it has also built more than 30 billion warships. If it continues to develop at this pace, it will be able to assist the Great Star Region Civilization defending against the Zerg swarm in 10,000 to 20,000 years.
The Great Star Region Civilization responded quickly.
"Chief, when will the Great Star Region Civilization arrive?"
" The Great Star Region Civilization will not arrive."
"Why?"
"They said there were only 18 units of the swarm, which we are fully capable of handling. As a member of the Galaxy Alliance, it is our responsibility to eradicate the swarm."
"Chief, we are capable of handling this, but even if we eliminate the swarm, the losses will be substantial. The key issue is these industrial planets, which we have built up over countless years to their current state. Once we lose these planets, it will take us many more years to rebuild them. Chief, should we speak with the Great Star Region Civilization again and explain the specifics?"
"It's no use. The Great Star Region Civilization isn't very friendly. Let's not go looking for trouble."
"Which Great Star Region Civilization does the leader belong to?"
"I don't know. We've only ever received messages from them; we've never actually met them."
"Hmph, when I see them, I'll definitely get to the bottom of this."
" Bi Cha, don't be impulsive. They have no obligation to protect us. Without the Galaxy Alliance, we'd have to bear everything ourselves. And for now, we can indeed handle the Zerg swarm on our own. Have the fleet clear a path for the civilian fleet; we must ensure their safety!"
"Chief, I've done my best, but the swarm is simply too large, hundreds or even thousands of times larger than us. There are probably hundreds of billions of Tier 19 swarms alone. Our fleet can only use the Space Barrier to move outwards little by little, hoping to escape the swarm's encirclement before our energy runs out."
"If all else fails, detonate the antimatter star."
"Chief, no, the antimatter star is too close to our fleet. Even if our fleet leaves, the energy from the antimatter star's explosion will be blocked by the layers of swarms, making it impossible to kill all of them. Chief, you Feng Ye should move to the warships immediately. The planet is no longer safe."
"We must Bi Cha thoroughly and ensure the safety of the public."
"Chief, I will. Move them quickly!"
The leader Feng Ye quickly tidied up and left the exclusive building protected by various instruments and equipment.
" Old Hu, the Zerg swarm has descended upon Xuan Star!" The moment the Zerg swarm appeared within the territory of the Xuan Star Civilization, humanity also received the news.
"What! How could this happen?"
"The information just transmitted from the miniature spaceship indicates that approximately 20 units of the Zerg swarm have descended upon the territory of the Xuan Star Civilization. Old Hu, the leader of the Xuan Star Civilization will definitely appear now. Our opportunity has arrived."
"No, do not act. If the Great Star Region Civilization will follow. If we act now, the Great Star Region Civilization will definitely find our engineering ship and track us down."
"What can we do then? If we miss this opportunity, it will be almost impossible for us to have another one."
"Wait a minute, let's see how the Xuan Star Civilization is doing." "We can't wait any longer. The leader of the Xuan Star Civilization has already emerged, and those following behind are clearly key figures from the Xuan Star Civilization. Photons are currently passing through their bodies."
"No, if we kill the leader of the Xuan Star Civilization now, and the Xuan Star Civilization is devoured by the Zerg swarm, the Great Star Region Civilization are very likely to come after us. We cannot afford to withstand the wrath of the Great Star Region Civilization right now."
"Are we just going to watch the leader of the Xuan Star Civilization escape? Are all our years of preparation just going to go down the drain?"
"The situation has changed. No one expected a swarm of insects to suddenly appear here. We'll have to think of another way."
"Damn these bugs, why did they have to come at this crucial moment?"
"Chief of the General Staff, the swarm didn't arrive without reason. I suspect it's very likely that we attracted the swarm," Academician Zeng said after a moment's thought.
