Then, the communication was cut off.

Jack asked the staff officers present a question.

“Does anyone here know what the energy diamond that Bob is talking about is? Could such an energy diamond appear on Planet Terra?”

This time, the conference room in the main ship of the S Battleship Fleet was dead silent.

“What is it? You were all quite enthusiastic when you opposed my proposal previously. Why are you all mute now?”

After a while, a staff officer with an unusual expression stood up.

“Reporting to the Captain, I know what this energy diamond is. However, as this is related to a secret held by the upper echelons of Planet Bhutler, I can only speak to you alone.”

Jack looked at the silent crowd and did not hesitate.

“Other than me and this person, everyone else will leave this conference room.”

…

Half an hour later, the S Battleship Fleet arrived at the spot where the reconnaissance ships were waiting.

Captain Jack received news from the reconnaissance fleet that there was an explosion in the mining area on Planet Terra, as well as the fact that the hidden fighter jets in outer space outside Planet Terra had returned to Planet Terra.

Jack was very agitated.

“It’s just the weak Planet Helka civilization, yet they dare to occupy Planet Terra. I wonder why the Planet Helka civilization is so bold.”

“The reconnaissance fleet will continue monitoring Planet Terra.”

“Let’s go. Attack Planet Terra!”

For the next ten minutes, the S Battleship Fleet was safe and sound. They were not ambushed by the Helkan fleet.

Looking at the dozens of red dots on the screen in the command cabin, Jack felt that his staff officers had simply been too worried.

In his opinion, Planet Helka was just a powerful colonial planet of the Bhutler civilization.

Even if Planet Helka escaped from the control of Planet Bhutler a year ago, it was only a low-level civilization.

Was there a need to be so careful when dealing with a low-level civilization?

Jack’s plan was very simple. After conquering Planet Terra, he would search for the energy diamond and return directly after finding it.

With the rare energy diamond, he could redeem himself and prove his abilities in front of the higher-ups of Planet Bhutler.

Perhaps, with this contribution, he could directly rise to the upper echelons of Planet Bhutler and command even more technological power.

After that, it would not be too late for him to lead a powerful fleet to deal with the Helka civilization.

The full S Battleship Fleet from Planet Bhutler travelled for a few more minutes. Then, Jack ordered for the warp drive engines to be shut down and the conventional nuclear-powered engines, which would power the weapon systems of the fleet, to be activated.

At this moment, a Bhutlerian in charge of communications spoke.

“Captain Jack, the communication signal has reached Bob, but he refuses to communicate.”

“Bob refused to communicate?”

Jack’s eyelids spasmed violently.

An ominous presence enveloped Jack.

All along, it had been Bob who initiated communication. However, at the most crucial moment, Bob rejected the communication!

What was going on?

Had something happened to Bob, or…

The various details of his previous communications with Bob came to Jack’s mind like a flashback.

A miner, a spy, Bob’s plan, the energy diamond…

The energy diamond?

Jack recalled the conversation he had had with the staff officer who had told him the secret of the energy diamond.

Jack also made a connection with the information that Bob claimed to have obtained from the Helkan guard. He had learned that the Helkan transport fleet was transporting an energy diamond.

No. That was just an ordinary Helkan guard. How could he have the right to come into contact with the energy diamond, which was only known to the higher-ups of Planet Bhutler?

Previously, Jack did not know about the energy diamond even as the captain of the S Battleship Fleet.

Thus, how could an ordinary Helkan guard know about the energy diamond?

Only then did Jack realize something.

He had been tricked!

Jack, who had undergone harsh training, could not help but panic.

His heartbeat instantly raced to 180 beats per minute.

Jack felt a strong sense of suffocation. Then, he roared loudly.

“Quickly activate the warp drive engines and spatial hyperdrive equipment. Leave this place at all costs!”

However, just after Jack issued this order, a flurry of hurried voices suddenly came from the communication device in the command room of the main ship.

“Damn it! Reporting to the Captain, the spaceship has been attacked by unknown energy, and the left cabin is damaged!”

“Reporting to the Captain, the space around the fleet has been distorted, and the warp drive engine cannot be activated!”

“Reporting to the Captain, our energy reserves are about to run out and we can’t engage in spatial hyperdrive. The energy in the current fleet can only meet the needs of the weapons system!”

“Reporting to the Captain, we have detected hundreds of small battleships and thousands of mechas!”

“Reporting to the Captain, we have detected 20 heavy battleships that are each 20,000 meters long!”

“Reporting to the Captain, our entire ship has been locked onto by the enemy ship’s larger-caliber cannons!”

“Reporting to the Captain…”

After a clamour of noise…

The siren of the long-distance communication device fell silent.

There was absolute silence in the command cabin that Jack was in.

This was because the signal indicators representing the five reconnaissance ships on the mini-screen of the energy detector device were disrupted for a while before completely disappearing.

It was obvious that all five reconnaissance ships had been destroyed by the enemy!

At the same time, countless energy signals of all sizes appeared on the energy detector screen.

The red light from the red signals dyed the walls of the main ship’s command room red.

“F*ck!”

Jack cursed in surprise.

His entire interstellar fleet only had a hundred starships.

However, the Helka civilization actually had several hundred interstellar battleships?!

Furthermore, there seemed to be thousands of mechas and fighter jets that could also fight in outer space!

What was going on?

The size of this fleet was something that even all the fleets of the current Bhutler civilization combined could not compare to.

What shocked Jack the most was that on the energy detector screen, there were more than twenty fist-sized red signals that represented Planet Helka’s heavy interstellar battleships.

The red signals were like giant whales in the deep sea that were moving quickly towards his fleet.

One had to know that even the signal indicators from the main ship of the full S Battleship Fleet from Planet Bhutler was only the size of a soybean.

Meanwhile, the signal indicators from the heavy interstellar battleships of Planet Helka were the size of a fist.

This meant that the energy density of the heavy interstellar battleships from Planet Helka had reached an extremely terrifying level.

This energy density could only be seen when facing an interstellar fleet from a high-leveled civilization.

Jack suspected that this fleet was not an interstellar fleet from Planet Helka at all.

After all, he could not believe that Planet Helka could possess such a powerful fleet within a year.

The Bhutler civilization only had their current three full interstellar fleets after relying on the resources they had plundered from the top resource planet of the Smonpabellen civilization and developing for a few thousand years.

Furthermore, the Helkans had been colonized by the Bhutlerians for thousands of years, and the resources on Planet Helka were almost depleted due to the violent exploitation of the planet by the Bhutlerians.

How could the Helka civilization possess such a powerful fleet within the span of a year?

It was definitely impossible!

Jack’s eyes were fixed on the energy detection screen.

Then, enemy interstellar battleships appeared in all directions around the fleet.

They appeared all around the fleet with no blind spots.

Jack did not expect that there would be so many starships hidden near Planet Terra in addition to the 20 small fighter jets.

Cold sweat broke out on Jack’s back.

He had trusted Bob too much.
