Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

Chapter 2848: Strike from the Dark!

“Red pig...”

Chu Zhiqiao wanted to say something else, but Li Yao pulled his “touch” out of each other's god's soul.

Almost. Besides, his own spirits are going to get goosebumps.

Li Yao just wants to gently “push” Chu Zhixiao. In the soul of this goddess who kills heavenly women, he plants a seed of suspicion and resistance, but does not want to deeply hypnotize each other, he has to let them act according to his will.

If he really strengthens hypnosis and seduction, he may be able to turn Chu Zhixiang into a rebel, but what difference does it make to the “brainwashing” of the best superiors and puppet kings?

He can only do this here. Whether Chu Xiao can take the first step of resistance depends on herself. Li Yao cannot interfere brutally.

Besides, the jump of the star sea is almost over, and the colorful Kaleidoscope swings gently all around, overlapping each other.

They have crossed the four-dimensional universe, jumped hundreds of millions of light years into the heart of the empire.

Of course, before getting out of the four-dimensional state, Li Yao did not forget to leave a faint, almost undetectable mark in the minds of the four members of the Night Fork Squad, as well as the Puppet King.

It's like a coordinate that penetrates every armored and shielded barrier, positioning him instantly where the five men are.

End of crossing.

It's like a bungee falling to the bottom of a valley, dragged by a safety rope between his waist, bouncing up.

Everyone felt that the five dirty hearts had been severely twisted, creating a spinning, nauseous and vomiting urge, and then the kaleidoscope dancing around quickly condensed and reconstituted, once again becoming a definite entity in the three-dimensional world.

People look at each other in a trance, like big dreams.

Chu Zhiqiao looked at the spider chariot Li Yao with suspicion.

She rubbed her temple gently, not sure what was going on with the fantasy and the real "dream”.

Li Yao lay down beside her and even curled all six limbs to her abdomen, looking like she was in a dormant state.

Chu Zhiqiao looked at Li Yao, looked at Puppet King again, thought for half a day, still no results.

However, the pain and wandering between her eyes showed that the seeds of doubt and resistance had sprouted deep in her heart, growing vines and branches that gradually wrapped around her soul, shaping her soul into a completely new shape.

Chu Zhiqiao took a deep breath, stood up and looked out through the virtual starboard window.

Li Yao also took the opportunity to unleash the "touch” and intrude into the ship's master crystal brain, navigation system, and sensors all around him to gather data like the tide.

It's a dark, sunless star.

In many virtual entertainment pieces and exciting games, space navigation tends to take place in a brilliant sea of stars, with countless stars, planets, satellites and asteroid belts serving as battlefields and, most importantly, infinite star rays as backgrounds, wherever you jump.

In fact, something like "planet”, originally, is an extremely rare existence in the universe.

The planets —— stars, planets, satellites, even sparkling asteroids -- are so sparse in the universe that it's like lifting a fine sand and sprinkling it onto a huge square, with no single gravel distributed per cubic metre on average.

So, most of the time, there's nothing in the universe, no light and heat, no matter, no fluctuations, some just endless darkness, ice and despair.

The same is true of this star domain.

Li Yao even has difficulty relying on the shuttle's sensors to find even one object as a reference, which can only be seen from the coordinates provided by the navigation system. This is really near the extreme sky, about three to five light years away from the resource-rich area of the extreme sky.

It's really “nearby", three to five light-years, for decades at regular sailing speed, no wonder Xiaoming and Wenwen didn't notice the existence of the Alliance's main force, the Volkswagen fleet.

Yes, although there are no cosmic objects, mankind and its ancestors - the destructive killing machines built by the beings known as the gods - still tear apart the ice, ignite the darkness and appear here.

The tail flames of countless starships converge with the space ripples they jump here to form a massive flood.

“How many starships are there? ”

Li Yaolan muttered to himself, his scalp numb.

The Volkswagen fleet is still assembling, and there are constant starships jumping out of the void, like a shark whose head rises from the deep sea.

In order to ensure the safety of the jump, most starships are so far apart that they cannot be identified by naked and ordinary crystalline eyes.

But the shuttle still receives data from the core of the Volkswagen fleet, guiding them through a course and letting them know how many silent star beasts are scattered in the darkness around them.

Li Yao has never seen such a large fleet.

Billions of tons of steel barricades were built together, colliding with each other, burning, exploding and extinguishing in the Federation of Stars, in the Battle of the Million Starships in the Seven Seas, and in the Battle of the Emperor's Defense in the Extreme Skies. The combined number of starships on both sides of our enemies is not, and is not, as large and horrible as this ambush fleet is now!

This is because, in both empires and federations, rulers and people are living human beings, with flesh and blood, emotions and desires.

Even in the most extreme cases, it is not possible to concentrate all starships in one place and abandon them elsewhere.

The overwhelming majority of the force remains in strategic positions around the world, maintaining supply lines and rear defences, and at the very least resisting potential disturbances and riots on the ground.

Under these circumstances, the Federation and the Empire are at the limit of a third of their manoeuvre to enter a strategic duel.

This is not so much the limit of technology and resource mobilization as the limit of humanity.

But the Allies, they're a bunch of people with no humanity at all.

So Li Yao very much suspected that the Alliance was really squeezing out the last resource and last soldier of every thousand worlds under its banner, taking them all to the front.

As for logistics, the order in the rear does not take into account at all, that is to put up a single shot, destroy decay, and not accept any possibility except victory.

“The Allies are really... crazy, just one breath into the whole family, the five best masters didn't even think about it, what if they lost or stalled for ten or eight years? ”

Li Yao really can't understand the strategy of the Allies.

He even creates a strange feeling that this “one-wave push” approach, unlike a real-world war, is like a supermassive crystal brain game.

“It seems that Lei Chenghu's judgment is correct, and there are really enormous problems within the Allies, or that their institutions have been rigid from the outset, with no creativity or impetus to move forward. ”

Blood-hearted demons, “The millennium development has reached its limits, reaching its fragile peak, and then stalling, only more ‘puppet kings’ and ‘infected’ and ‘awakeners’ will emerge, causing the system to collapse from within.

“Therefore, the five best masters do not care, even if they lean out of the nest, they must solve the empire before it collapses!

“As for the question of whether the rear world does not have enough troops to maintain order, whether it will be plunged into chaos and complete collapse, it is by no means in the consideration of the superior division. Anyway, more people are just 'soldier bees' and ‘worker bees’, and when they are all dead, they will naturally get more ‘soldier bees’ and ‘worker bees’ as long as they can occupy the empire, which is the resource-rich area in the heart of the star sea. ”

“That's true. ”

Li Yao Mun said, "The Allies first made a major offensive to the new light complex of the Empire, separating the Expeditionary Army from the Empire's homeland, striking at the morale of the Empire on the one hand and, on the other hand, a plan of suspicious soldiers, which surprised the Empire that they would be so insane that they deployed to such a dark star area with no resources at all. ”

It is extremely risky to deploy the vast fleet of soldiers from all over the country into such a dark star without celestial bodies or powers.

Although it is not far from the Empire, it is in a state of “dark under the light” and is not easily scanned by the Imperial Guard.

But the attacker is unable to get even one stone's resources on the spot, and all supplies have to jump in from the rear, through the stars and oceans, and their depletion is more than astronomical numbers!

It was as absurd as stationing "800,000 troops” in a desert on an ancient battlefield. Every piece of food and water had to be transported from the rear, and ten other pieces of food had to be consumed along the way to transport one food. If the war was not started soon, the tow would drag itself to death.

Yet, neither the Federation nor the Imperial military academies, when they teach command strategies, never use such resourceless dark stars as a rallying point - not even close to enemy strategic destinations.

Heartbreak madness, like the Black Wind Fleet, was also a search for a star with a brown dwarf in it when it struck the Federation, saving a lot of fuel simply by using the gravity of the brown dwarf.

Any imperial or federal commander who dares to propose such a senseless formula as setting the Dark Star Areas into assembly points will surely be taken to a hospital by all his generals and staff to examine his brain.

But the madness of the Allies was unexpected by all.

The shuttle sails in the darkness and the invisible sensation of the tail flames of countless starships gleaming around itself, like the sparkling fangs of star beasts.

They're like a little fish, falling for a shark feast.

It took a day to sail deep into the heart of the "shark herd" and hear the call becoming clearer and clearer.

Ahead, the ultimate salvation ship of the Volkswagen fleet!
