Similar self-detonating magical equipment existed in the battle sequences of the imperium and the federation.
However, they were embedded with smart chips and controlled by the super logic algorithms of Xiao Ming and Wen Wen. The agility and damage of the upgraded ‘big iron balls of wisdom’ were ten times higher than before. They were like the white blood cells inside a human body. Once they discovered an
intruder, they would immediately surge forward and cover the enemy without giving them any chance to breathe.
This was just the first defense line of the Empyrean Terminus Sector.
There were nine similar defense lines. With the calculation of Xiao Ming and Wen Wen, as well as the painstaking planning of the imperium for the past thousand years, every blind spot of the Empyreal Terminus Sector had been blocked. Wherever the enemy jumped over, they would be bombarded
mercilessly from all directions.
Not to mention that, although the imperial guards commanded by the ‘Empress Dowager’ Li Linghai were not as sharp as the coalition fleet of Lei Chenghu and Boss Bai, they would not hesitate to sacrifice their cannonballs and their lives when they were faced with a desperate situation in which the
imperium was on the brink of destruction.
Li Yao felt that he had fallen into magma.
The kind that was still erupting.
At the microscopic level, he seemed to be able to ‘see’ that countless starships of the Sanctuary Alliance were entangled by cosmic mines and drones before they were able to recover from their previous state. Dark red ‘tumors’ were popping up one after another. In a few seconds, the entire starship was
torn apart in a series of earthshaking explosions. The debris of the starships that were affected by the blast splashed to the starships nearby like a meteor shower, triggering a destructive chain reaction.
He also saw that, inside the twisted starships and the countless pathways and cabins, flames and blast were savaging everything in their way like a super high-speed crystal train that had derailed. Many people of the Star Glory Federation had just prayed to their gods before they tuned around and
perished in the abyss of destruction.
Even the five supreme fortresses were stuck in the awkward state of travelling through the four-dimensional space. They could not teleport the mass of ten trillion tons to the Empyreal Terminus Sector for the time being. Therefore, they were attacked by the defenders like a storm. Giant semi-circular
fireballs protruded out of the surface of the fortresses. Countless burning materials spurted out of the cracks like broken tentacles that were struggling and waving helplessly.
On the macroscopic level, or rather, the level of data and information, the data flowing in the space network was hundreds of times denser than before.
Under the interference of the guards, the data turned from the falling raindrops into hazy mist. It was chaotic, confused, and dirty. It was difficult to retrieve any useful information.
Even Li Yao’s telepathic thoughts were hindered when they tried to extend to the starships nearby.
It was as if the information swamp he was in had tured from ‘mud’ into ‘rock.
He could only try to collect the data that had been transmitted to ‘Ultimate Rescue’ through the interference of the enemy. In the three minutes before the space jump to the Empyreal Terminus Sector, the best fleet of the federation had lost 7,422 starships. Hundreds of thousands of other starships had
lost contact with the main flagship and teleported to somewhere else in the Empyreal Terminus Sector. Some of them had even perished among the stars.
However, the loss was within the expectations of the five great masters.
Faced with the heavy casualties, the morale of the members of the Sanctuary Alliance was not affected at all. Their morale had been ‘locked’ to a fixed value.
With the delay of the victims, the remaining starships of the Sanctuary seized the time to get rid of the interference of the space ripples. They deployed shields and magnetic interference systems and tried to connect their data streams to the space battle network to restore command and order.
The five supreme fortresses jumped out of the four-dimensional space one after another and hit the defense line of the Empyreal Terminus Sector brutally!
This was the most crucial moment.
Just like the ‘Million Starship Battles’ in the Seven Seas Space Zone, if the troops that were forced to jump over could resist the fierce bombardment of the defenders and regroup before the entire fleet collapsed, the victory would be more than half secured.
‘What was most advantageous for the attackers was that, leaving the difference in weight and firepower aside, the fighting will of the people of the Sanctuary was ten thousand times stronger than that of the coalition army of the nobles.
Li Yao ‘saw’ that the data streams in the form of electric arcs were hundreds of times brighter than before among the thousands of crystal brains on ‘Ultimate Rescue’.
Stimulated by the electric arcs, all the crystal brains were shivering violently.
The super tiny runes carved inside and outside of the crystal brain were shining brilliantly. They broke out of the shell and blossomed into countless unpredictable shadows.
Some of the crystal brains even tured bright orange, like red-hot steel, indicating that the temperature had reached the limit and that white smoke was popping up.
It was obvious that, in order to search for and command all the starships under their command to reorganize the space battle network under the bombardment of the defenders, the computational ability of the ‘Fuxi System’ had been increased to the maximum. If it was increased by one percentage point,
it would explode.
‘The image of the five supreme masters appeared around the ‘Fuxi System’ again. They were all frowning solemnly and communicating with the data of the ‘Fuxi System’ crazily. Clearly, their souls were about to be drained, and their brains were at their weakest.
What do I do?
Although Li Yao was watching coldly from the side, it was impossible for him to stay out of the matter. The thought that it was his two children, Xiao Ming and Wen Wen, who were under tremendous pressure from the fleet of the Fuxi Clan made his heart burn with anxiety.
Wait. Xiao Ming and Wen Wen?
Something is not right. Something is not right!
Li Yao mumbled to himself, “If this is really the Empyrean Terminus Sector, and the fleet of the Fu Xi fleet has jumped here to fight the guardians of the imperium, how come I didn’t sense the existence of Xiao Ming and Wen Wen at all when the interference of the two parties is so strong?”
“Well—”
The mental devil agreed. “That does seem to be the case. Before the bombardment, the spiritual energy magnetic field confrontation is the priority. The outcome of the spiritual energy magnetic field confrontation basically determines the outcome of the battle. It is common sense in space battles.
“Besides, Xiao Ming’s and Wen Wen’s strengths are the intrusion of the Spiritual Nexus and the confrontation of spiritual energy.
“When we were discussing the defense strategy of the Empyreal Terminus Sector with Xiao Ming, Wenwen, and Li Linghai, we focused on the spiritual energy confrontation because of the lack of soldiers.
“In the vast sea of stars around Empyrean Terminus, dense Spiritual Towers and Spiritual Nexus interference magical equipment are everywhere. Wherever the enemy appears, they will be jammed and invaded immediately. With Xiao Ming and Wen Wen’s capability, I’m afraid that there are not many
tactical command networks in the entire Pangu Universe that can resist their intrusion.
“But right now, although the bombardment we felt was fierce and seemed to have turned the entire space battleground into a pot of porridge that had been burnt to the ground in the blink of an eye, there was no sign of Xiao Ming or Wen Wen at all. It’s impossible!
“That is, there is a mysterious connection between us. It is something that can pierce through all the interference and barriers and cannot be cut off easily.
Li Yao was very sure. “As long as this is the Empyrean Terminus Sector, we will definitely be able to sense the existence of Xiao Ming and Wen Wen!”
“So”
“This is not the Empyrean Terminus Sector,” the mental devil said coldly.
Although the shocking conclusion was made by the two of them together, Li Yao was still dumbfounded out of habit.
“If not the Empyrean Terminus Sector, then where?”
Intuitively agreeing with the conclusion of the mental devil, Li Yao was even more confused. “Is there any place with such high-intensity defense firepower that can wage such an earthshaking, apocalyptic war against the main force of the Sanctuary Alliance—the fleet of the Fuxi Clan?”
“I don’t know, but I have to correct you.”
The mental devil replied, “Right now, we are not sure whether or not an earthshaking Armageddon is taking place outside. We are merely ‘sensing’ that an ‘Armageddon War is taking place outside. More precisely speaking, a lot of data has been transmitted to ‘Ultimate Rescue’, making us ‘sense’ that an
‘Armageddon War is taking place outside.
“After all, we don’t have eyes, ears, or any other sensory organs right now. We can only rely on the data collected and analyzed on the Spiritual Nexus to infer what is happening in the real world. We will believe whatever the data indicates.
“Even with eyes and ears, everything you see and hear is just a series of data. As long as the data is tampered with, the truth might be twisted.
Li Yao was silent for a long time.
He finally understood what the mental devil meant.
“Are you saying that we’ve fallen into a ‘super illusion’ where everything we see and feel is false and virtualized by the tampered data? That the fleet of the Fuxi Clan did not jump to the Empyreal Terminus Sector at all, and there was no fierce battle outside? Is this a trap?”
To this moment, Li Yao was still in the mood to smile. “Thankfully, it does not seem to be a trap for us.
It was as if a bolt of lightning had streaked across the sky of his soul, illuminating every ripple of his soul to be sparkling and translucent.
‘When one saw through the enemy’s traps and scanned and analyzed the crazily surging data and information around them, one would immediately notice the paleness and falsity of the data.
It was true that he was not in the Empyrean Terminus Sector, because he had a deep understanding of the entire defense system of the Empyrean Terminus Sector, and he knew Xiao Ming’s and Wen Wen’s tactical styles like the back of his hand. The tactical styles and defensive ideologies of these two
little guys had been constantly colliding and condensing with Li Yao.
The war data transmitted from the outside world seemed to be complicated and intense, but in fact, it was a bit too simple and crude. There was not the slightest hint of Li Yao’s insidiousness and sleazyness. No, it was the feeling of agility and fluidity.
“So, this is actually a sham battle?”
Li Yao mumbled to himself, “Is it a sham battle that the five great masters simulated in the data world with the super computational ability of the ‘Fuxi System’? In other words, in fact, their souls and the firewall of the ‘Fuxi System’ were not attacked at all.. Their computational ability was far from being
exploited to the maximum!
