All Realms and Worlds: The Lost Home

The dark swarm of insects continued to roar, but strangely, they did not continue to pursue the retreating three fleets; their previously frantic pursuit suddenly came to a halt.

As if receiving an invisible command, countless Zerglings changed direction one after another. Their dark figures surged like a reversed torrent towards the core area of ​​the Shelllow Star Cluster. Bloodthirsty buzzing echoed in the starry sky, exuding a chilling eeriness.

The three fleets that were in the process of withdrawing all noticed this anomaly. They all stopped their retreat and stared intently through the observation windows at the swarm of insects that was turning, their faces filled with disbelief and shock.

"They... stopped chasing us?" Han Mo's tone was full of doubt and relief. The suffocating feeling of being relentlessly pursued by the swarm of insects still lingered in his mind.

Ye Fan stared at the distant swarm of insects, his brows furrowed, a hint of vigilance flashing in his eyes: "Something's not right. They haven't given up; they have a more specific target—the core of the Shelllow Galaxy Cluster."

The Redmane Steed Zero's detectors were operating at full capacity, clearly capturing the movement trajectory of the insect swarm. All the insectoids were converging on the core area, and all energy entities along the way became their targets.

Inside the command center of the Human Alliance flagship, Su Lan stood in front of the holographic screen, her gaze fixed intently on the movements of the insect swarm. Her fingertips tightened slightly, and the unease in her heart grew stronger: "The target of these insects has never been us, but the core energy of the Shelllo Star Cluster, or perhaps the energy amethyst."

Inside the Star River Federation's flagship, Lin Yue sat in the command chair, his face filled with relief at surviving the ordeal. Looking at the swarm of insects turning on the screen, his voice trembled: "Luckily, they didn't chase after us, otherwise we would all have become food for the insects."

The commander of the Yuanji sub-human race looked in the direction of the insect swarm and let out a low roar.

But as soon as he finished speaking, he realized that with their remaining forces, they were simply no match for the endless swarm of insects.

A moment later, the fleets of the Human Alliance, the Star River Federation, and the Origin Ridge sub-race completely withdrew from the battlefield and retreated to the outer region of the Shelllo Star Cluster. Gazing at the core direction from afar, the scene before them made everyone's scalp tingle and their hearts leap into their throats.

An endless swarm of insectoids, like a black curtain in the sky, swept away everything in its path. Whether it was the wreckage of a broken warship or a floating meteorite, they were all devoured by them and instantly turned into dust.

Several Keloan warships that couldn't evacuate in time were instantly surrounded by the insect swarm. Countless insectoids landed on the warships, their sharp mandibles constantly tearing through the alloy hulls. The ear-piercing "sizzling" sound echoed throughout the area. The warships' alarms blared shrilly, but only lasted for a few minutes before falling completely silent.

The warship was completely devoured by the Zerg. The Keloan soldiers inside didn't even have time to scream before they became food for the Zerg. The green Zerg blood mingled with the wreckage of the warship, spreading across the starry sky in a truly horrific scene.

The outer planets of the Kelo star cluster have now been completely covered by the insect swarm. The once lush planets have been devoured by the insects in just over ten minutes, with the rocks, soil and vegetation on the surface being completely swallowed up. Even the core energy of the Earth is being continuously extracted by the insects.

Ultimately, those outer planets lost all their energy and became lifeless wreckage, slowly floating in the void, devoid of their former vitality, as if they had never existed.

The insect swarm advanced at an extremely rapid pace, sweeping all before it reached the core region of the Kelo star cluster—the home planet of the Keloa race.

At this moment, a defensive barrier has been fully activated above the home planet of the Keloa race. The barrier emits dense energy fluctuations, firmly protecting the entire home planet. This is the ultimate defense of the Keloa race, solely to resist the impact of the insect swarm.

On the surface of the home planet of the Keloan race, countless Keloan soldiers stood ready, warships were neatly arranged inside the barrier, their cannons aimed at the sky, and the Keloan leader stood in the command cabin of the main ship.

"Everyone, listen to my command! Protect the barrier with all your might! Even if it means death, we must defend our home planet!" The leader of the Keloyan race roared through the communicator, his voice filled with despair.

Countless Keloan soldiers roared in unison, gripping their weapons and staring intently at the sky, awaiting the onslaught of the insect swarm.

The next second, an endless horde of Zerg arrived below the defensive barrier. The pitch-black swarm covered the entire sky, completely surrounding the home planet of the Keloa race. Their bloodthirsty roars were deafening, and even the defensive barrier trembled slightly.

"Charge! Crush the barrier and devour the entire homeworld!"

An invisible command sounded, and countless insectoids launched an attack simultaneously. The dense swarm of insects, like black rain, rushed towards the defensive barrier, clinging to it and frantically gnawing at it with their sharp mandibles, emitting a piercing "sizzling" sound.

The pale purple defensive barrier flickered as it was being devoured by the Zerg. The light gradually dimmed, and countless tiny cracks appeared on its surface. The energy fluctuations also weakened. Clearly, the barrier's defense was rapidly crumbling.

"Fire! Attack the bugs clinging to the barrier with all your might!" the leader of the Keloyan race ordered urgently. "Activate all main cannons and unleash energy blasts! We can't let them destroy the barrier!"

Countless warships opened fire simultaneously, unleashing a barrage of energy projectiles at the Zerg above the barrier. Each energy projectile that struck the Zerg blasted swarms of insects into fragments, and the green insect blood splattered onto the barrier was instantly neutralized by the barrier's energy.

The Keloan soldiers also took control of their ground weapons and opened fire on the Zerg in the sky. The dense artillery fire intertwined, killing the Zerg that were lying on the barrier. However, the number of Zerg was too great. As soon as one batch was killed, more Zerg would swarm up. It was impossible to kill them all.

Several massive, heavy insectoids rushed to the bottom of the barrier and frantically rammed it with their thick armor. Each impact caused the barrier to tremble violently, the cracks to widen, and the pale purple light to grow weaker and weaker.

"Oh no! The barrier is about to collapse! The energy is being consumed rapidly!" The monitoring personnel reported frantically, their faces filled with despair. The energy of the defensive barrier had already been consumed by nearly half. If this continued, the barrier would shatter completely in no time.

Despair filled the compound eyes of the leader of the Keloyan race. He knew perfectly well that they were no match for the endless swarm of insects, yet he still refused to give up, roaring orders: "Activate the energy amethyst! Repair the barrier with all your might! All soldiers, do not retreat! Fight to the death!"

The backup energy was activated, and the pale purple barrier light intensified slightly, temporarily halting the expansion of the cracks. However, the Zerg's attack continued unabated. More and more Zerglings clung to the barrier, gnawing at it, while more and more heavy Zerglings rammed into it relentlessly. The barrier's defenses continued to crumble.

A Keloan soldier was manipulating ground artillery, relentlessly slaughtering the Zerg in the sky. But a flying insect broke through the artillery barrage, rushed in front of him, and its sharp mandibles instantly pierced his chest. Green blood gushed out, and he slowly fell down, never to rise again.

Such scenes played out in every corner of the home planet of the Keloa race.

The warships of the Keloyan race were gradually breached by the Zerg. Several warships were surrounded and devoured by the Zerg swarm, eventually exploding violently and turning into fragments. All the soldiers inside the ships perished, with not a single survivor.

The leader of the Keloyan race stood in the command cabin, watching the soldiers constantly sacrificing on the screen, watching the ever-shattering barrier, watching the swarm of insects filling the sky. The despair in his compound eyes was gradually replaced by numbness.

In the distance, the fleets of the Star River Federation and the Origin Ridge sub-race watched this scene in silence, their faces filled with complex expressions—sympathy, regret, and fear—but no one dared to step forward to offer assistance.

They all knew that with their remaining forces, if they went forward, they would not only be unable to rescue the Keloa race, but would also be swallowed up by the insect swarm, unable to even protect themselves, and could only watch helplessly as the Keloa race held out alone, step by step toward destruction.

"It's too tragic..." a Human Alliance soldier muttered to himself, looking at the screen showing the Keloan homeworld surrounded by the insect swarm, but without a trace of regret in his eyes.

Lin Yue stood inside the Star River Federation's flagship, his previous relief gone, replaced by a solemn expression. He knew that after the extinction of the Keloa race, they would likely be next; these insectoids would never stop their devouring spree.

The commander of the Yuanji sub-species had a hint of barely perceptible schadenfreude in his eyes.

Ye Fan stared in the direction of the home planet of the Keloyan race, his brows furrowed. He understood the Keloyan race's perseverance, but he also knew that this perseverance was ultimately futile and meaningless. Even without the Zerg, he would have slaughtered all of these alien races.

Just then, the entire starry sky suddenly trembled violently. An energy fluctuation far more powerful and bizarre than the insect swarm slowly emanated from the distant void, instantly sweeping across the entire starry sky.

Everyone's expression changed drastically. They all looked up in the direction from which the energy fluctuations came, their faces filled with disbelief and shock. A strong sense of fear instantly swept over them, making them feel even more suffocated than when facing the swarm of insects.

In the distance, a colossal figure was slowly approaching. At first, everyone thought it was a massive planet, but as it drew closer, they realized that it was not a planet at all, but a continent floating in the universe!

This cosmic continent is extremely large, more than ten times larger than the home planet of the Keloa race. Its surface is covered with rugged mountains and deep canyons. It is dark in color and exudes a dense and strange energy fluctuation. It is surrounded by black mist, making its specific appearance unclear.

Above the continent, countless enormous figures could be vaguely seen weaving through the black mist. These figures were even larger and more powerful than the previous heavy insectoids. Almost every one of them exuded a chilling, bloodthirsty aura, just like the super-heavy insectoids. Clearly, even more terrifying insects roosted there!

"What...what is that?!" Lin Yue stared at the distant cosmic continent, his voice filled with fear. He had never seen such a vast cosmic continent, nor had he ever seen such a terrifying aura of life.

Han Mo and his team could only vaguely make out those enormous figures on the cosmic continent.

Inside the command center of the Human Alliance flagship, Su Lan knew that they had to evacuate immediately, or everyone would die here.

"Immediately! Transmit my order!" Su Lan's voice, carrying an undeniable authority, resounded throughout the entire Human Alliance fleet via the communicator: "All Human Alliance fleets, immediately initiate the warp drive procedure and warp to the pre-defined safe zone!"

"Second Legion, Fifth Legion, Sixth Legion, fully activate the warp engines without delay! Once the warp is complete, immediately establish temporary defensive positions and closely monitor the movements of the insect swarm and the outer continent!"

"receive!"

The adjutant and communications officer responded in unison, their voices firm and clear, and quickly got to work, relaying orders swiftly to everyone in the fleet without the slightest delay.

"Activate the warp drive! Charge!"

"Coordinate calibration! Preset safe zone, coordinates confirmed!"

"Jump procedure initiated! Countdown: ten, nine, eight..."

As commands were issued, all of the Human Alliance's warships simultaneously activated their warp engines. Pale blue energy shone around each warship as the engines roared, rapidly charging the energy and causing space to warp, forming massive warp tunnels.

Ye Fan and Han Mo's team quickly prepared for the jump. Ye Fan stared at the distant cosmic continent, a hint of vigilance flashing in his eyes.

Upon seeing this, the fleets of the Star River Federation and the Yuanji sub-race also reacted and immediately initiated the jump procedure. They knew that if they delayed any longer, they would have no chance to evacuate and would only become food for those terrifying insects on the cosmic continent.

"Quick! Initiate the jump! We can't wait any longer!" Lin Yue frantically ordered. The Star River Federation's warships quickly started their engines and began charging. Space distorted, and the jump channel gradually formed.

The Yuanjiya race's fleet also immediately sprang into action, their warp engines running at full power as they rapidly warped towards the pre-designated safe zone. They no longer cared about the safety of the Keloya race's home planet; they only wanted to escape this terrifying region as quickly as possible.

At this moment, the defensive barrier of the Keloan race's home planet has been completely shattered. Countless insectoids have flooded into the Keloan race's home planet like a tidal wave, frantically devouring everything. The resistance of the Keloan race's soldiers is meaningless; they can only be devoured one by one by the insectoids.

The leader of the Keloan race stood in the command cabin of the main ship, watching the swarm of insects pouring into the home planet, watching the soldiers constantly sacrificing themselves, and watching the distant cosmic continent slowly approaching. Despair in his compound eyes completely replaced all his resolve. He knew that the Keloan race was utterly annihilated.

"boom--!!!"

A deafening explosion rang out as the main ship of the Keloan race's homeworld exploded violently, turning into fragments. The Keloan race's leader and countless Keloan soldiers became food for the Zerg. The Keloan race, which once fed on humans, was completely wiped out from this part of the starry sky.

Meanwhile, the distant cosmic continent continued to slowly approach, the black mist gradually spreading, and those enormous, terrifying insects vaguely revealed their true forms: sharp armor, thick legs, and pointed mouthparts, radiating a chilling aura. They were waiting, waiting to descend completely and devour the entire starry sky.

The Human Alliance fleet has now completed its jump. The Second Legion, the Fifth Legion, and the Sixth Legion have all arrived at the designated safe zone. The jump channels are closed, the warships are lined up neatly, and they are quickly establishing temporary defensive positions. The energy shields are fully activated, and the main and secondary cannons are fully charged. They are vigilantly watching the direction of the Shelllo Star Cluster.

Su Lan stood in the main ship's command cabin, her gaze fixed solemnly on the holographic screen. The screen clearly showed the scene of the Shellloa race's home planet being swallowed by the insect swarm, and the slowly approaching cosmic continent in the distance. Her heart was filled with unease.

"Reporting to the Commander! All fleets have completed the jump, and temporary defensive positions have been established!" The adjutant stepped forward quickly and reported in a firm tone.

Su Lan nodded slightly, her tone grave: "Pass down the order: all fleets, maintain high alert, expand your detection range, closely monitor the insect swarm and the movements of the space continent, and report immediately if any anomalies are detected!"

"Furthermore, contact the Human Rights headquarters to report the situation here, request support, and mobilize more fleet and equipment to deal with any subsequent crises!"

"Received!" the adjutant replied immediately, quickly turning around to get to work.
