Even in the small Sextans A, there is a Great Star Region Civilization, and it is under the suppression of the Giant General Civilization that it has three Great Star Region Civilization. Sextans B also has two Great Star Region Civilization. If it weren't for the Insect Race invasion and the sweeping by the Andromeda Galaxy civilization, there would be at least 20 Great Star Region Civilization in the Milky Way.

While reaching the Great Star Region Civilization is by no means an easy task, given the large number of civilizations and the long existence of galaxies, it is not impossible for dozens of Great Star Region Civilization to accumulate.

"The leader has become the alliance leader?!" Hu Yu, Luo Zhigao, and the others were utterly astonished.

"Your leader is truly a remarkable leader. Although Human Civilization is weak, he is a top-notch veteran in handling interstellar affairs. At that time, the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds were locked in fierce combat. The Alliance Leader, with a force that could barely be considered a Small Star Sector Civilization, intervened in the war, maneuvering between the civilizations of the two star systems. After many years of effort, the two sides stopped fighting, completely abandoned their past grievances, and formed an alliance. All of this is thanks to the Alliance Leader."

"The leader truly lives up to his reputation; such a feat is something we can only look up to." Luo Zhigao exclaimed excitedly.

"You can't even imagine how great our leader is. You've been away from him for far too long. He brought us peace, opportunities for development, and chances to become powerful. All civilizations in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds respect him, and under his leadership, they live in harmony. You'd be hard-pressed to find another person with such talent in the entire Local Group. Oh, and that old man Xu is also quite remarkable."

Everyone laughed. This Hong Lie was truly a man who didn't care about formalities. Apart from showing some respect to the alliance leader, he could give everyone else a nickname. However, this Hong Lie was definitely a powerful figure, far more than just a minor general he claimed to be. And the old man Xu he mentioned must be Director Xu Xiaodong. Knowing that Director Xu was still healthy, everyone felt even more relieved.

"General Hong Lie, do you really not know where our leader has gone?" Hu Yu asked again.

"I really don't know. Ten thousand years ago, our leader led all of humanity and trillions of warships from four Great Star Region Civilization on a voyage. I, a lowly officer, am not qualified to know where they went. However, people within the alliance are saying that our leader is playing a grand game, possibly targeting the Andromeda Galaxy."

" Minister Luo, it seems we've fallen far behind our leader."

"Yes, it's unbelievable that the leader has already gone far ahead."

"General Hu Yu, although the Alliance Leader is far away, he has never lessened his concern for you. Not long ago, when you encountered difficulties, the Alliance Leader even sent me with a hundred trillion warships to rescue you. However, by the time I was about to arrive, you had already escaped danger, so I had to return. Otherwise, this would have been our second meeting, haha."

"The time the Fish Horse Star Civilization besieged us?"

"Of course, at that time, the Alliance Leader sent a message that most of our Blazing Sun Civilization's fleet had been taken away by the Alliance Leader, so I had no choice but to gather a hundred trillion warships from several other civilizations to come to our aid. I never expected that the leader's generals would be so outstanding, managing to survive even in such a desperate situation. Hong Lie admires them greatly."

"You flatter me, everyone. The battle is urgent, we can talk about catching up later. Now, let's head to the battlefield together to support the Milky Way Fleet."

" Hu Yu, I won't be going. It's a big no-no for an army to have two commanders. Besides, you know the situation in the Milky Way and on the battlefield better than anyone else. Now that the fleet is in your hands, I need to go meet up with some old friends. Haha, taking a break this time, no objections, right?"

"Alright, Minister, you will proceed to the Secondary Universe first. Academician Gao, your research on black holes is quite profound. There is a black hole in the Super Fortress of the Fish Horse Star Civilization that sustains the fortress's operation. I have already sent fragment samples of the fortress to the Secondary Universe. Academician Zeng is working hard on the project. I hope you will work hard and find a way to break through the fortress as soon as possible."

"That's natural. We've been idle for too many years; our brains will rust if we don't keep moving."

"General Hu Yu, I'm too lazy to go. Anyway, the Alliance Leader only told me to hand over the fleet to you, not to participate in the war. I'll just relax with Minister Luo. They've been relaxed for too many years, but I haven't had a moment of peace in ages. This is a good opportunity to slack off. But you mustn't tell the Alliance Leader, or I'll be in big trouble."

"Haha, okay, then everyone wait for me in the Secondary Universe. If there's any news, have Li Zhixiong come out and let me know."

After a brief farewell, Hu Yu led over 250 trillion warships alone to the Boötes Galaxy. At this point, Boötes had completely lost its appearance as a constellation; no star could maintain its normal orbit. Apart from the spatial collapse, which was at the speed of light, all other spatial attacks and energy pillars were faster than light. Although they would gradually slow down as the distance increased, destroying the small Boötes was enough.

The entire Boötes Galaxy was filled with the firelight of explosions, high-energy particles and rays, the debris of various disintegrated stars, fragments of warships, and torn space. Most civilizations were initially just simple microscopic entities, but once they became civilizations, they possessed the power to destroy entire galaxies, much like cancer cells in the human body.

Hu Yu, the Slaughterer, did not directly engage in the war. This elite force had to be used only when it mattered most. If it did not move, it would be to cripple the enemy. With the addition of the new fleet led by Hu Yu, the main force of the Milky Way had changed from the Great Star Region Advanced Civilization to humanity.

The 50 trillion warships of the Fish Horse Star Civilization have appeared in the fourth dimension. Although their numbers are not as large as the fleet of the Milky Way civilization, they are enough to stop the Heavenly Peak Civilization fleet from carrying out super-dimensional reduction. The fourth dimension cannot be abandoned, so the Heavenly Peak Civilization has no choice but to entangle itself with the Fish Horse Star Civilization in the fourth dimension alone, dragging these 50 trillion Fish Horse Star warships into the fourth dimension.

In the vast three-dimensional universe, the Super Fortress's travel speed was repeatedly reduced to sub-light speed, yet it stubbornly broke through the speed of light time and time again. Both sides were engaged in a game of strategy: if they could stop the Super Fortress, the Milky Way civilization would survive; if they could not, the entire Milky Way civilization would perish.

At the call of humanity and the other five Great Star Region Civilization, more and more civilizations have joined the battlefield. Although many of their technologies come from Li Shun, they are not truly fighting for Li Shun. With the propaganda of the five Great Star Region Civilization, many of them still chose to participate in the war. Although their fleets are small in number and of poor quality, they are all fighting for the Milky Way.
