The Dawn spacecraft plunged into the space tunnel, heading towards the nearest natural wormhole at 100 times the speed of light.

Ten minutes later, the Dawn entered the wormhole tunnel.

After more than 300 wormhole teleportations, Harvey returned to Chaidar.

However, when he saw the interstellar space surrounding Chaidar filled with hundreds of warships of all sizes, his face was filled with curiosity.

"Which fool dares to cause trouble on the Nova Corps' territory? Is it Ronan the Accuser? Or Thanos?"

After careful observation, although these warships looked very advanced, the laser cannons all around them gave him a faint sense of threat.

But he could confirm that it was likely just Ronan's fleet.

After all, Thanos's mothership, Sanctuary II, was the size of an entire planet, which was quite exaggerated.

"But is Ronan leading his fleet to attack Chaidar?"

Harvey frowned and thought for a moment, considering what it would be like to deal with an enemy of Ronan's caliber.

Then we can't just rely on casting spells silently without a staff; we have to be more serious and take out the Holy Elemental Staff to fight the enemy.

At this moment, a medium-sized fleet of up to one hundred ships took off from the spaceport of Chaidar and headed toward Ronan's fleet.

Ronan, infamous for his wicked intentions, clearly had ill intentions, but the Nova Corps still wanted to talk first.

However, Ronan's ruthlessness was unexpected.

Upon seeing the vanguard fleet dispatched by the Nova Corps, he ordered all fleets to open fire without hesitation.

Whoosh whoosh!

In the dark and silent interstellar space, beams of dazzling lasers and particle cannons flew continuously towards the Nova Legion's vanguard fleet from Harvey's vision.

"boom..."

Sound cannot be transmitted in space.

But we can see that Ronan's sneak attack destroyed most of the Nova Corps' vanguard warships.

Chapter 163 Interstellar War

The Nova Corps' vanguard fleet was suddenly and severely damaged. The few surviving warships tried to speed away, but were annihilated by Ronan's fleet's second wave of attacks.

Losing an entire vanguard fleet in less than a few seconds is a devastating blow for the Nova Corps.

Seeing that Ronan was being completely unreasonable, Queen Adora of the Nova Corps decisively ordered her centurions to deploy all their warships to counterattack.

An interstellar war has begun.

Various terrifying attacks, including lasers, particle waves, light-speed kinetic energy weapons, and space-shaking cannons, were launched at enemy warships from distances spanning dozens of astronomical units.

Just at the beginning.

Without any probing, the two sides immediately entered a heated exchange of fire.

Harvey observed from a distance, occasionally dodging the aftershocks of naval gunfire that were directed at him, without any intention of getting involved.

Against the backdrop of the dark, boundless universe, Harvey frowned, thinking to himself, "Could Ronan also be after the Tesseract?"

A powerful individual like Ronan has an exceptionally strong sense of danger in his surroundings, making it impossible for Harvey to infiltrate his vicinity to gather intelligence.

Harvey prefers to go to the Nova Corps spaceport; if he carefully avoids the high-tech surveillance, he should be able to find out the origins of this war.

Without hesitation, he used a spatial jump to disappear into the vast starry sky as another energy attack approached.

In the blink of an eye, Harvey arrived at the Nova Corps spaceport.

At this time, the entire spaceport was under martial law, and all the Nova Legion warriors coming and going were on high alert.

The quantum space detection radar and energy shield were both turned up to maximum power to guard against Ronan's fleet approaching.

Many tourists and merchants who had just arrived to resupply were affected by the sudden outbreak of war.

They could only accept the Nova Corps' temporary control, hiding fearfully in their respective ships, praying that the Nova Corps would win this war.

Some cowards even ignored the Nova Corps's advice and forcibly broke through the buffer defense line around the spaceport.

As a result, the spaceships of these people who were blinded by rage were almost all destroyed by the aftershocks of the attacks from both sides in the midst of fierce fighting.

Interstellar warfare isn't about two sides' warships lining up in a row and foolishly exchanging fire.

In the vast three-dimensional universe, once the two sides get into a melee, the war will quickly spread to the entire galaxy.

The two sides' warships were locked in combat, and some severely damaged warships that tried to retreat were relentlessly pursued and killed by the enemy warships.

It is not uncommon to see three or five warships chasing each other as they leave the Chaidar system.

Therefore, apart from the spaceport protected by the three-dimensional energy defense system, Chaidar is currently considered safe.

Therefore, most of the tourists who were forced to stay at the spaceport remained calm and did not try to escape.

In such a large-scale interstellar war, leaving a spaceport with an energy shield is almost tantamount to suicide.

Harvey was arguably the most relaxed person in the entire spaceport.

Anyway, he's just here to gather intelligence; he can advance or retreat as he pleases.

If necessary, it wouldn't be difficult for him to take down Ronan's fleet.

Harvey brazenly used his stealth to bypass the patrolling Nova Corps soldiers and penetrate deep into the living quarters of the spaceport's management.

Along the way, besides all sorts of aliens, the most common sights were the patrolling soldiers of the Nova Corps.

However, none of these people could detect the invisible Harvey, and they easily arrived at the spaceport's command center.

Many mid-level technical staff in the Nova Corps were sitting attentively at their posts, staring at the various parameters on the holographic screens in front of them, keeping a close eye on the war situation outside.

Harvey quietly walked up to the two centurions of the Nova Corps who were arguing heatedly.

On the large 3D projection screen in the command center, the battle scenes of dozens of advanced warships were displayed.

The two centurions are arguing about whether to retreat or fight to the death.

"Ronan's fleet is too strong; their warships are superior to ours in both weaponry and defense..."

"Even if we deploy all our warships, maintaining a stalemate would be the best we can do. We need to preserve our strength and retreat as soon as possible!"

"None of the Nova Corps are afraid of death. Even if it costs us everything, we will fight Ronan to the very end!"

"Besides, Chaidar is right behind us. Do you expect us to abandon our home planet, which we've protected for nearly a thousand years?"

"Timo, this isn't abandonment, it's a wise strategic retreat!"

"Trobes, you're just afraid of dying. I saw through you a long time ago. You're a hypocrite. Do you want to ruin the Nova Corps' reputation that's been built up over the years?"

"Honor is incomparable to life. Ronan is clearly after those Terrans. Wouldn't handing them over prevent this war?"

"The Nova Corps swore to protect everyone who enters the Chaidar system. If we hand over those Transans as Ronan demanded, what right do we have to call ourselves the Guardians of the Galaxy?"

"So, for the sake of those Terranians, we have to sacrifice so many brave warriors?"

"Their sacrifice was worthwhile..."

Listening to the two arguing, Harvey gradually understood the reason for the war.

It turns out that Nick Fury started the relocation plan.

The first group of 500,000 elite humans from all walks of life, led by Dr. Banner and Clint, arrived on Chaidar in search of a new habitable home that could support millions of people.

As an advanced civilization, the currency exchange on Chaidar is extremely expensive.

Rare metals like gold and silver, which are common on Earth, are not rare on Chaidar.

To raise money to buy intelligence on habitable planets, or to buy a piece of land in the Chaidar system for immigration.

Dr. Banner had no choice but to exchange a small amount of vibranium for star coins from the planet Chaidar.

However, they possessed very little vibranium, and the money they earned quickly ran out.

Habitable planets or land on Chaidar are extremely expensive.

If they want to continue making money, they need to find a stable and large-scale channel to do so.

Most of Earth's resources are worthless to Chaidar.

In the value system of advanced civilizations, only ultra-high density energy is the best hard currency.

So Dr. Banner discovered Hydra's technology from World War II.

A batch of "batteries" with extremely high energy density were created from the infinite energy universe cube.

Even advanced intermediate-force civilizations like Chaidar are very interested in these palm-sized, high-density batteries.

For this reason, they are willing to pay a high price to acquire this "battery".

For Dr. Banner, possessing the Cosmic Cube, each "battery" with an energy density of up to 10 μW/cm², can be exchanged for 1000 Star Coins.

This type of battery costs almost nothing to humans and can be mass-produced.

Having tasted success, Dr. Banner, taking advantage of the good order on Chaidar, sold large quantities of "palm-sized batteries" to make money.

This high-performance palm-sized battery quickly became popular throughout the entire planet Chaidar.

Chapter 164 New Home - Beta Planet

The problem is that the Palm Battery's performance is so outstanding that even Ronan the Accuser knows of its existence.

In his quest for the Infinity Stones, the almost mad Ronan astutely noticed the absurdity of this battery.

How could the backward Teranians produce such high-density batteries in large quantities?

Initially, Ronan only wanted to seize this excellent battery technology.

After sending people to infiltrate the temporary settlement of the Teranians and making inquiries, they discovered that the source of this battery was actually a cube with unlimited energy.

Ronan immediately became interested and decisively sent more people to interrogate the middle-level managers of this group of pioneer immigrants from Terania.

Only then did they discover that the Teranians' Infinite Energy Cube was actually the Infinity Stone they had been searching for for decades.

Therefore, Ronan the Accuser decisively led his fleet to Chaidar to forcibly seize the Cosmic Cube.

After Harvey figured out the reason, he quietly left the command center and immediately jumped to Chaidar.
