Chapter 141 Four Stars, War, War Commander

Lu Qingfeng piloted the consciousness of the void cluster, constantly traversing the fleet and gathering intelligence.

A War General? There are people above the General?! What's with the power structure of your empire?!

Alright, let's raid a few nearby stars first and farm some units.

Lu Qingfeng was too lazy to think too much and prepared to start building up his forces. No matter what, strength was always the most important factor.

The fall of Admiral Victor and the defection of the Seventh Expeditionary Strike Group were like a bombshell dropped into the Imperial sector's defense system.

However, the empire's territory was vast and its hierarchy was strict, so the chain of response took time.

The silence of communications between the flagship, the Unyielding Faith, and the entire Seventh Strike Group was initially interpreted by the rear command as interference from a powerful enemy, indicating that they were still engaged in fierce combat, and did not immediately trigger the highest-level comprehensive alert.

Lu Qingfeng did not wait for the storm to gather in the same spot on the circumpolar meteor.

The advantage of the void lies in its spread and proliferation; to remain stagnant and wait for death is tantamount to giving up the initiative.

"My Lord, the information network of the Seventh Strike Group and the detailed star map of this sector (XJ-7) have been initially integrated."

The four most important nodes closest to the circumpolar planet are: [Hragron Forging World], [Elwyn Agricultural World], etc.

[Boundary], [Ptolemy Starport], and [Silent Order Psionic Fortress]

Lu Qingfeng stood on the bridge of the [Unyielding Faith] ship, which was being eroded by purple energy veins. His gaze swept across the star map, and beside him, the admiral was giving a report.

Four goals, four locations —

Lu Qingfeng stared intently into thought.

Warlord Tyrion's main fleet may be on its way, but before he arrives, I must swallow as much as possible and let the snowball of the void grow big enough.

And for some reason, I always feel like something is watching me from behind. Is it just my imagination?

hiss----

After much deliberation, Lu Qingfeng issued his order. Since the void will would ultimately pay for everything anyway, he didn't expect to take anything with him, so he might as well go all out.

"The force will be divided into four groups, with the transformed Seventh Strike Group ships at its core, and a mix of newly formed Void Starships and Locust Swarms."

o

"After all Void Nest Mothers on the ground accelerate the hatching of Void Spores and the Low-Altitude Raider fleet completes orbital suppression, they will carry out a large-scale airdrop."

Remember, our goal is not conquest, but plunder! To transform their population, industrial facilities, and even the planet itself to the greatest extent possible.

body.

Cut as many as you can! Don't value your own life as much as others on this planet! This world needs purification!

Lu Qingfeng's cold command was instantly transmitted through the void network, followed by the excited shouts of the monsters. For void creatures, death is never the end!

"Purify! Purify! Purify!"

The massive fleet, its color turning an eerie dark purple, began to regroup, quietly leaving the orbit of the meteoroid and disappearing into the shallow channels of subspace, heading toward their respective targets.

Hragron forges the world.

When the fleet, gleaming with purple light, suddenly appeared on the outskirts of the star system, piercing alarms blared across the orbital platform.

The defending fleet was caught off guard and engaged in battle, but faced with a comparable number of fearless former allies, coupled with the corrosive influence of the void and the constant interference with communications by the whispers of the void, the defensive line was quickly breached.

The orbital defense platform was repeatedly reduced to ashes by concentrated fire and the suicidal impact of the Void Locusts.

Then, a torrential downpour of Void Spores and drop pods pierced through the anti-aircraft netting, unleashing endless Rippers and Worms upon the roaring Forge Temple and the dense worker hives.

The intricate machinery was covered by purplish-black energy veins. Exhausted technicians, drained of their life force in despair, turned into worms, dragging the overseers who controlled them into the abyss.

The entire forging world is being twisted from the empire's arsenal into a production line in the void; of course, such a strategy is not unique.

Elwyn Agricultural World has weaker defenses, relying mainly on orbital surveillance stations and a small number of system defense fleets.

The Void Fleet crushed these symbolic resistances with lightning speed, and then a spore cloud that blotted out the sky enveloped the main continent!

The hive's force field shield overloaded and collapsed under the continuous erosion of void energy.

Screams! Running! Chaos!

The vast population accumulated in the agricultural world did not bring a harvest to the ranchers, but instead attracted an even more frenzied swarm of locusts.

A massive amount of negative emotions and life essence were frantically extracted by the [Lord's Summoning] power, flowing through the void network to Lu Qingfeng, and then being transformed into a continuous stream of new void units.

The sky over Elwynn was stained an ominous dark purple, a sign of impending doom according to ancient prophecies!

Meanwhile, Ptolemy Starport on the other side suffered even more, as this busy transportation hub was not even put on a state of war preparedness.

It wasn't until those familiar yet utterly unfamiliar Imperial warships opened fire that the Starport Command snapped out of its daze.

"By the Emperor! Have these people gone mad?!"

Dozens of merchant ships and transport vessels of various sizes, as well as two light frigates, anchored in the harbor, were immediately and devastated.

The shipping lanes were blocked by the distorted void debris and stasis field, instantly paralyzing ship scheduling and information flow within the local sector.

At this point, three of the four areas have been cleared, leaving only the last one—

The Silent Order's Psionic Fortress?

This was the only place where we encountered any decent resistance.

The fortress's own psionic barrier has a certain resistance to void energy, and the high-level psionicists inside quickly united to launch a counterattack and send out distress signals.

However, the Void Fleet responsible for attacking this place received clear instructions: regardless of the cost!

The mental pollution waves released by the Void Gaze swarm, the suicidal psionic clashes of the Void Wyverns, and the fleet's relentless bombardment held the psionic fortress back, while more and more troops were sent to reinforce the area after other regions fell.

Lu Qingfeng himself shuttled between these battlefields, responsible for putting out fires and dealing with the highest combat forces.

Seventy-two hours is as short as an instant in the vast star sector.

But for Lu Qingfeng and his Void Army, it was like having a piece of succulent meat thrown in front of them, to be devoured at will, and even to be cooked with the lingering aftertaste.

The successive collapse of four key nodes, along with the resulting negative emotions and energy, caused the virtual army to expand exponentially.

The transformation process of the circumpolar planet continues, and most of the planet's surface is now covered by a purplish-black carpet-like substance. The enormous Void Nest Mother pulsates like a heart, constantly producing various combat units.

However, such a large-scale attack eventually exceeded the limits of local cover-up, and War General Thierry von Hess was alerted earlier than Lu Qingfeng had originally planned.

His most elite First Fleet, along with the planetary warships that served as mobile command fortresses, prematurely ended its deterrence mission in another star system, located the source of the chaos, and initiated an emergency hyperspace jump.
