Colonial Suit

Three hours was a tight schedule, especially for the human fleet that had just experienced a brutal battle. However, as the final moment arrived, the fleet ended its rest and began to disengage from the POS array one by one. On the massive steel warships, damaged armor plates were still being repaired, with welding taking place even as they navigated. Besides the main fleet, general combat spacecraft had only had their energy and shield systems maintained, but ammunition had been replenished, enough to support a saturation attack.

For many small and medium-sized ships, the war might only offer one chance to attack, after which it would be over.

At this point, the war was no longer about equipment, but about willpower.

"Hurry, organize the fleet and make sure all ships keep up. Logistics fleet, protect the immigration ships. I know you're not combat ships, but we're short on manpower..."

"Vanguard reconnaissance fleet has entered the Naraku Gate, communications are normal."

"Received safety signal, orbit enabled, first batch deploying!"

"Second batch deploying!"

One after another, massive fleets silently flew into the huge ring in the starry sea, swallowed by streaks of white light. A few minutes later, they appeared in a new void.

Naraku Layer Seven, they had finally arrived...

This was a quiet void, appearing as peaceful as if it were asleep. There was no war, no expected traps, just like an untouched virgin land, with humans as the first to set foot here.

There was no sign of the Boca and Sasa fleets, they had obviously already headed to their target destination.

"Reconnaissance fleets, deploy... We don't have much time!"

"Activate high-power scanning system, request Eden connection, we need to find those guys. Request Cosmos-class or higher space warriors for psychic intervention. Expand the search range."

"Understood, mission in progress."

Orders and responses were constantly heard in the fleet channel, and the human vanguard fleet immediately spread out, like countless small fish swimming into the depths of the void. They couldn't worry about fleet safety regulations at this point. Even if the subsequent combat fleets hadn't fully passed through and the initial defense circle hadn't been established, the reconnaissance fleets had to find the target as soon as possible. Only in this way could they make up for lost time.

The Boca and Sasa had entered this place long before the humans, and time was on their side.

Behind the massive fleets, the Naraku Gate continued to churn, sending more human ships into this starry sky. Time passed bit by bit, and when Eden's massive figure also appeared before everyone, the information chain immediately incorporated all ship data into the network. The human fleet instantly established a unified channel.

"Order, establish a temporary POS cluster," Sal Jones said in a deep voice, looking at the new void before him. "Expand the fleet, defense circle. All small ships join the reconnaissance sequence, we need to establish a star map model as quickly as possible."

"Understood!" the deputy replied, then relayed the order.

Immediately, the entire human fleet sprang into action, like an expanding ant colony, dispersing dense 'worker ants'. Massive amounts of information flooded into the database, and a light curtain simulation of the star map began to appear before Sal Jones. One by one, light spots were marked, and signal coordinates were linked. The entire starry sky was unveiling its mysterious veil to humanity.

This was a very stable alternate dimension collection. Compared to the sixth layer, the energy activity of the seventh layer of Naraku was lower, but the spatial structure was more solid. It felt as if it had solidified. Conventional warp jumps were ineffective here. Even using advanced jump devices required a hundred times more energy than in normal space to penetrate the subspace, greatly reducing the mobility of the human fleet and drastically shrinking their range of activity.

But this wasn't bad news, because it was the same for the Boca and Sasa. So their target destination wouldn't be too far away.

Sure enough, the report from the reconnaissance ship came through the channel shortly after the star map was established.

"Giant celestial body detected! Scanning... Oh, hell, what is that thing!"

Next to Sal Jones, a holographic image appeared, showing a strange bowl-shaped celestial body. It was huge, with a diameter of tens of trillions of kilometers, looking almost like a giant monster in the void. Its shape was not circular, but bowl-shaped, with a huge pit in the center. Inside the pit, it was pitch black, and all scanning and detection frequencies disappeared without any feedback.

"That's it!" Sal Jones's eyes lit up immediately. "Vanguard fleets, approach immediately!"

"Understood!" The response from the vanguard fleet came through the channel, and then some light spots moved closer to that celestial body in the map model.

At the same time, at the bottom of the bowl-shaped pit of that celestial body, Xie was also looking up at the void.

"They've come after all."

"No signal from our fleet, were they all wiped out?"

"That's normal," Saros said haughtily beside him. "You and I both underestimated the humans. These lowly creatures have the same temperament as the ancient Krodel. They are a group of lunatics who will do anything to achieve their goals. Although their technology is not advanced enough, their vast numbers are like a plague, devouring our living space."

"It's a pity that we couldn't destroy them before they developed, and can only face their provocation here."

"It's hardly a provocation," Xie smiled slightly. "Even if they can catch up, it will be too late. The Gate of Eternal Farewell is about to open. As long as we can enter, it doesn't matter if all the personnel left behind here die. Final victory will definitely belong to us."

The latest novel is first published on Liu_9__Shu__Ba!

"Belong to Boca... and Sasa."

"Humph," Saros snorted coldly, his pair of purple eyes quietly watching the void, revealing a bone-chilling chill.

"The First World... the god who created us and fooled us. I, Saros, will definitely kill you with my own hands."

The two talked in low voices, their feet on a boundless basin, where a large number of ships and personnel were stationed, surrounding an oval-shaped energy gate in the center. On either side of the basin were strange towers. Energy of light and dark colors was being emitted from the tops of the towers, shining on the energy gate in the center. The center of the energy gate was already vortex-shaped, constantly rotating and gradually receding.

When the vortex was completely formed, the Gate of Eternal Farewell would open to the two.

Xie looked at the energy gate for a while, then suddenly grinned. "You know what? Saros, I've actually been looking forward to this day for a long time, but I never thought that the person who would join hands with me in the end would be you, not your king."

"What qualifications does that waste have to seize victory?" Saros replied, his purple pupils becoming more and more demonic. "He only deserves to become my food, as nourishment for my growth. As for you, Xie, after we kill Alpha, it will be your turn."

"I'm also looking forward to it," Xie replied with a smile, then pointed to the sky.

"Boca Magic Guidance Fleet, sortie!"

"Sasa Death Star, sortie!"

"Before Saros and I enter the Gate of Eternal Farewell, humans are absolutely forbidden from approaching!!" (To be continued ~^~)
