Just as everyone was discussing, at the entrance to the Mirror Sub-Universe, a fleet consisting of trillions of warships of varying sizes, accompanied by 20 stars, appeared around the Fish Horse Star fleet, these stars subtly surrounding the Fish Horse Star warships.

This is another fleet of the Justice League. The fleet that appeared near the Dark Moon Civilization base was only a part of the Justice League's fleet; the other part of the Justice League's fleet had already arrived in the Mirror Sub-Universe.

" Fish Horse Star Civilization, you already know my conditions, so I won't go into details. General Hu Yu, come out. I know you're nearby." Guan Sengping, as if in control, calmly sent out the message.

Hu Yu hadn't forgotten Guan Sengping's voice. This was the human he had saved from the Mu Star Civilization years ago. Wei Kaiyuan had become Li Shun's right-hand man, and although Guan Sengping was a little less capable, he was still a powerful figure on Li Shun's side, currently controlling the entire Justice League.

Faced with Guan Sengping's provocation, Hu Yu naturally could not back down. Even with the Fish Horse Star Fleet right next to him, a Two-Dimensional Conqueror slowly peeled away from the Two-Dimensional Basic Space and appeared in the three-dimensional universe.

" Guan Sengping, what are you trying to do!" Hu Yu demanded sternly.

"General Hu Yu, please don't be so angry. I haven't even properly repaid the debt of saving my life back then."

"No, I wouldn't dare. What do you want with all this?"

As Hu Yu spoke, he ordered the Two-Dimensional Conqueror to secretly approach the Justice League's fleet.

"General Hu Yu, I advise you to have your two-dimensional warships cease operations. Although I haven't ordered the fleet to release energy, it doesn't mean I'm unaware that your fleet is nearby. If anything goes wrong here, the matter-antimatter star will detonate, and this entrance will expand. I don't need to elaborate on the consequences."

Hu Yu glanced at the blazing stars around him and had no choice but to order the two-dimensional warships to cease operations. Since Guan Sengping had said so, he must have made thorough preparations. It was impossible to sneakily send two-dimensional bombs into their fleet. These matter and antimatter stars were now under the tight control of their fleet.

Although these warships were no match for Hu Yu, it would be extremely difficult to snatch the antimatter star from them. If they weren't careful, their mutual gravity would cause them to collide, leading to a spatial collapse. Hu Yu didn't know whether the collapse would widen the entrance to the passage.

The academicians are still calculating based on Guan Sengping's words. If, as Guan Sengping said, the explosion of matter and antimatter stars can expand the import and export range, it will be a big problem for the civilization inside.

The key point is that if the Conqueror Fleet were to be fully exposed now, it would pose no threat to the Fish Horse Star Civilization. The Fish Horse Star Civilization would be left to its own devices in the Mirror Sub-Universe, and it wouldn't be long before all civilizations there would be destroyed by the Fish Horse Star Civilization.

What do you want?!

"It's simple. We need technology, the more the better. Whoever provides the most technology, our Justice League will help."

" Guan Sengping, you bastard! I should have sent you to feed the insects!" Wen Zhonghua yelled.

" Chief of Staff Wen doesn't have the demeanor of a great general, but I forgive you."

"So you're a remnant of the Mu Star Civilization who escaped. Unbelievable, huh? Hu Yu, I'd love to know your expression right now. Are you regretting it? Haha!"

"Enough with the nonsense. Three days is enough. If you provide a list of technologies for me to choose from within three days, I will carefully evaluate them. Thank you both in advance."

" Old Hu, I will never agree to hand over the technology to that Guan Sengping."

"Although their fleet is easily defeated, their sheer number makes it impossible for us to eliminate them quickly with a surprise attack. Moreover, their fleet clearly includes some genuine warships from Great Star Region Civilization, and their combat strength should not be underestimated."

"So you're planning to give the technology to these bastards?"

"Of course not, wait, the Dark Moon Civilization has sent a message." Hu Yu looked at the message he had just received on the virtual screen. "This Guan Sengping is no ordinary person. No wonder Li Shun entrusted him with such an important task. The same thing just happened with the Dark Moon Civilization; the Justice League is coercing them to demand technology."

" Guan Sengping's move was quite ruthless. He didn't come earlier or later, but at this very moment. He chose the perfect time."

"First, compile a list of technologies to stall them. Make the list as comprehensive as possible; showing it to them is fine, but actually acquiring it is impossible."

"You little rascal," Wen Zhonghua chuckled softly.

Hu Yu wasn't the only one thinking this way; the Yun San Civilization was doing the same thing. Although the Fish Horse Star Civilization was reluctant, they didn't want to lose their gains, so Du Ka, within his authority, was also compiling a technology list to provide to the Justice League.

However, none of them truly wanted to give the technology to the Justice League. Everyone was secretly and nervously discussing how to break this deadlock without losing technology, and how to effectively eliminate their opponents.

For years, Hu Yu had been searching for Li Shun's whereabouts, but Li Shun seemed to have vanished into thin air, completely disappearing without a trace. Now, Guan Sengping was merely a pawn of Li Shun, and whether or not he was eliminated would have little impact on Li Shun.

"General, after calculations by myself and other academicians, we've determined that the massive explosions of antimatter stars could indeed expand the scope of the Mirror Sub-Universe's entrances and exits. Due to the Secondary Universe -Secondary Universe's unique characteristics, spatial collapse won't extend into it. Now that the Fish Horse Star Civilization has connected the entrances and exits to the fourth dimension, the space destroyed by the explosions of matter and antimatter stars will immediately be replenished by the fourth dimension. The final size of the collapse will determine the size of the entrances and exits, and this entire area will be connected to the fourth dimension, allowing for faster energy and space entry. It won't be long before we catch up with the various civilization bases that are currently relocating." Academician Zeng arrived just as Hu Yu was pondering how to deal with the current situation.

" The Fish Horse Star Civilization didn't continue to expand the passage because their defenses weren't strong enough. If the entrance and exit were expanded to hundreds of light-years, civilizations in the Secondary Universe would have a chance to escape, which seems like a good thing for us."

"No, General, if the passageway is widened, the speed at which energy and space flow in will also be faster. I just analyzed the operations of the Fish Horse Star Civilization. The main reason they haven't continued to widen the passageway isn't because their defensive capabilities are insufficient, but because the energy output of their current fleets cannot maintain a wider area of four-dimensional connection. Guan Sengping's move is practically helping the Fish Horse Star Civilization widen the passageway."
