"We need a large-scale, powerful attack," said General Bi Cha of the Xuan Star Civilization.

"What suggestions does General Bi Cha have?"

"All attacks are based on energy. To defeat such a large swarm of insects, we need a lot of energy, and the energy we are most likely to obtain in large quantities now comes from these stars."

" Bi Cha intends to use these stars to exterminate the insect swarm?"

"Indeed, General. Among the swarm, over 90% of the insects are below level 20, and less than one ten-thousandth are above level 25. However, the number of these low-level insects is already so large that it is affecting our attack. Even if we were to kill them one by one, it would probably take us a long time. If we can eliminate these low-level insects all at once, it will be much easier for us to deal with the remaining high-level insects."

"General Bi Cha is right. Indeed, these insects below level 20 are severely hindering our attack. They are covering the advance of the higher-level insects. If we cannot kill the higher-level insects under the cover of the lower-level insects before they reach our territory, the consequences will be unimaginable once they break into our territory. But to kill this giant insect swarm, countless stars will probably suffer."

"We have no other choice but to sacrifice these stars."

" Bi Cha, level 20 insects can already withstand the energy impact of a star's explosion. Only close-range contact with the explosion could kill some insects. At that rate, it would probably take tens of millions of stars."

"Yes, we'll move as many stars as possible over here and detonate them simultaneously to paralyze the swarm. It looks like our antimatter star isn't going to survive this time, haha."

"General Bi Cha, antimatter stars are the accumulation of your Xuan Star Civilization over countless years, you..."

"It's alright, I've already discussed it with the leader."

"Yes, General Hu Yu, if the antimatter star can kill the swarm, then it has played its greatest role. It doesn't matter if it's used up, we can build another one." The leader of Xuan Star said, pretending to be indifferent.

"Although I know that antimatter stars are not only a weapon for you, but also a testament to your civilization, we simply cannot find a better weapon of mass destruction right now, so we can only temporarily leave the responsibility to your Xuan Star Civilization."

"General, there's no need to feel sorry for us. If the galaxy is gone, there's no point in leaving behind an antimatter star. If an antimatter star can be destroyed to save the galaxy, then all the effort we put into creating it was worthwhile."

"Alright, with the antimatter star, our chances of dealing with the Zerg swarm are much higher. This time, relying solely on our fleet and the fleet of the Xuan Star Civilization is not enough, and defense is meaningless. We must go all out and fight to the death, keeping the Zerg swarm firmly at a distance of 100 light-years. Therefore, all the fleets of Small Star Sector Intermediate Civilization need to be deployed."

" The Xuan Star Civilization Fleet is ready to be deployed."

" Carina Civilization is willing to follow the General's arrangements."

"Please also arrange the battle plans for our Crystal Civilization fleet, General," said the Crystal Civilization leader, who had remained silent until now.

" The Gemini Civilization' fleet is willing to commit its entire force to battle." The Gemini Civilization' leaders also stated their position.

The other civilizations in the alliance are, of course, just following in humanity's footsteps. Without humans, their fleets wouldn't even reach half the number and quality.

"In that case, we will cooperate in this operation. We will be responsible for overall command and control. Chief of the General Staff, please read out the operational plan."

"Alright, everyone, I won't repeat the information about the Zerg swarm; you're all very clear on it. Now, I'll announce the battle plan: 60 billion ships from the Xuan Star Civilization fleet and 100 billion ships from the Crystal Civilization fleet, totaling 160 billion ships from both civilizations, will be responsible for directly resisting the Zerg swarm and slowing its advance as much as possible. The human fleet, consisting of 50 billion ships, will directly charge into the center of the Zerg swarm to attract its attention, with 10 billion warships responsible for transporting antimatter stars to the center of the Zerg swarm for detonation."

" The Gemini Civilization fleet has 100 billion ships, the Aquila Civilization fleet has 40 billion ships, the Brilliant Star Civilization fleet has 10 billion ships, and the North Star Civilization fleet has 10 billion ships. You are responsible for moving all the stars from all directions into the swarm and detonating them. The more the better, regardless of the consequences. Even if you have to empty the galaxy, you must move them. After you have moved all the nearby stars, you will send 160 billion warships to circle around to the left and right flanks of the swarm and drive it towards the center to create the optimal conditions for the explosion of the antimatter stars."

" The Carina Civilization's 30 billion warships are following behind us, intercepting any escaping insects. They are also tasked with monitoring the fleets of the Zhalong Star Civilization and Quaking Star Civilization. You and the Tree Race elders are guarding the base. Does anyone have any opinions or suggestions?"

"No."

"No."

"No objection."

"General, Chief of Staff, our Gemini Civilization intends to fight the Zerg swarm head-on," said the leader of the Gemini Civilization.

"The leaders of the Gemini Civilization, the pressure on the main battlefield is immense. We are unfamiliar with the performance of your warships and cannot effectively coordinate our operations. The Crystal Civilization's warships were deployed to the main battlefield after careful consideration. The battles on the flanks are equally important. The success of your driving operations will directly affect the effectiveness of the attack on the antimatter star. You can return to the main battlefield after the antimatter star explodes," Wen Zhonghua replied.

"Alright, then our Gemini Civilization is fine too, we'll follow your orders."

"Now that everything's settled, everyone get ready. We'll set off immediately and keep the battlefield 200 light-years away."

"Yes."

"Everyone's here, perfect timing." Just as everyone was about to leave, an image of a warship was projected into the center of the holographic conference room.

" Lord Yun San," Hu Yu greeted, and everyone stood up to show their respect. The Yun San Civilization's fleet was recognized by all the civilizations present.

"Hmm, a giant swarm of insects is attacking. Do you have a plan?"

"Sir, we are preparing to use a large number of stars."

"Sigh, I know this is unavoidable. If our fleet weren't so busy, it would be better not to use these stars. The galaxy is already overburdened."

"My lord, we have limited energy and can only rely on these stars. However, even if we detonate the stars, they will reappear in hundreds of millions of years," said the leader of the Xuan Star Civilization.

"I know you won't understand. You can use stars however you want, but never try to use black holes, understand?"

"But why is that?"

"Only if you can reach the Great Star Region Civilization will you be qualified to know this secret. The same applies to us guarding the central black hole. Oh, and let me remind you, never even think about leaving the Milky Way."

"My lord, why is that?"
