Before deploying troops, prepare the supplies first.
Throughout history, the most important aspect of war has been logistical support.
Even in the Star River Era, the complexity of war has increased, but logistics being the top priority remains unchanged.
The large-scale fleet deploynts, the resources, and manpower consud by the fleet, all boil down to burning money intensely.
Hercules sent fleets multiple tis to conquer, with a powerful fleet dominating the star realm, yet it t disastrous defeat on Sea Dragon Star.
As an administrative star, Sea Dragon Star houses billions of people. There are countless mineral resources underground.
The main cannon of a Star Destroyer can blast Sea Dragon Star into fragnts, but such direct destruction gains no benefits, and it would significantly disrupt the star realm's space.
The destruction of an important planet will affect the entire star system, and the impact will continually spread outward, influencing the entire star realm.
Even the strongest light computer cannot accurately calculate the extent of the damage caused by this destruction.
Moreover, the value of Sea Dragon Star lies in the planet itself.
Hercules also dispatched a Silver Sword Hero team to form a commando, but it was a heavy loss as well.
The underworld of Sea Dragon Star is vast and complex. The Lizardman species is exceptionally suited to the complex underground environnt. Behind them, a powerful and mysterious force supports them.
Decades of crusades and pacifications have made the situation on Sea Dragon Star increasingly chaotic.
Even surface human cities are severely threatened. The mining industry on Sea Dragon Star is near a standstill.
The collapse of the planet's pillar industry led to fiscal collapse. The lives of billions are trendously affected.
Basic living conditions for people are impacted, filled with resentnt.
Many cities have started to worship the Evil God, and this trend is becoming more and more intense, showing signs of spreading like wildfire.
Hercules understands that the Evil God is rely an external factor. The real problem is the failing economy, which leads people to decadence.
Thus, the key is not to eradicate the cult but to eradicate the Lizardn. Restore the mining industry, revive the economy, and all problems will cease to be problems.
For this purpose, Hercules even put aside his prejudices and exceptionally accepted Gao Xuan.
Because he saw in Gao Xuan the hope of breaking through!
Many do not understand what it ans to slay a Golden Sword Saint in such an environnt as the Taurus.
Most people would think it's due to Gao Xuan's strength or Shao Daoyuan's incompetence.
In reality, it ans that Gao Xuan's combat power under the Fifteenth-Level Source Power is infinitely strong. Almost unrestricted.
In other words, as long as he's within this Source Power environnt, Gao Xuan is invincible.
Of course, this is only a hypothesis by Hercules. He doesn't know Gao Xuan's upper limit. There's no need for him to test it.
Sea Dragon Star is the best test. If Gao Xuan can fight his way out, he qualifies to be his son-in-law. If Gao Xuan dies inside, he suffers no loss.
This is Hercules' plan.
As for this, Gao Xuan is fully aware. Between him and Hercules, there is only the most direct relationship of interest. As long as he is useful, he will be valued by Hercules. If he's useless, Hercules won't tolerate him.
Although Gao Xuan doesn't want to marry Helen, he cannot part with this lover.
In his past life, Helen was indeed very good to him. Moreover, Helen is so gorgeously bright, which is worth his effort.
One crucial point: he knows what is hidden deep within Sea Dragon Star.
No choice, who made him have the experience of a past life. Who made Helen his lover in the past life. Who made Helen rather nostalgic.
According to the normal trajectory, in seventy to eighty years, the Sea Emperor Star Realm will be destroyed by the Evil God on Sea Dragon Star.
For now, that Evil God should still be very weak. Gao Xuan believes he has a great chance of eradicating the opponent.
Even without Helen's relationship, such an Evil God, once discovered, should be eliminated early.
Originally, Gao Xuan planned to earn the title of Sword King, achieve Gold status, and then hunt Evil Gods in various star domains. First cleanse the internal of humanity. Then consolidate human power to prepare for the great calamity.
"Xuan, what are you thinking?"
Helen saw Gao Xuan staring quietly at the starry sky outside the spaceship's window, no longer relaxed as usual, and she couldn't help but worry.
Helen rested her chin on Gao Xuan's shoulder, softly whispering beside his ear: "If you don't want to go to Sea Dragon Star, we can elope now. Just find an escape craft and we're done. Taurus isn't far from here..."
"Since I agreed, I can't retreat on the verge. That would be too embarrassing."
Gao Xuan grasped Helen's warm, soft hand and said affectionately: "For you, I'm willing to do anything."
Helen was very moved. She tightly held onto Gao Xuan's neck, saying passionately: "I'll be with you. No matter where, we are together."
"Yes, we'll never be apart."
Gao Xuan pulled Helen into his arms and kissed her deeply.
Nuwa, standing next to Gao Xuan, sarcastically remarked: "Scumbag, don't you feel guilty saying these things?"
Gao Xuan responded to Nuwa with the Six-winged Celestial Cicada: "Sister, it's not suitable to spectate next. If you have no business, you should go rest."
"Once you have a woman, you don't want your sister anymore!"
Nuwa complained, then said, "I'm telling you, Sea Dragon Star is very dangerous. You ran over without asking first."
"Thank you, sister, but I'm doing it for love," Gao Xuan explained innocently.
Nuwa didn't believe Gao Xuan; this guy was too much of a scoundrel. She would never believe he'd risk everything for love.
She reminded him, "The human corruption rate on Sea Dragon Star is very fast, and there must be an Evil God in charge of the surface's human world. I suspect this Evil God is from the Charm Race, possessing extrely strong charm power..."
The Charm Race is a powerful form of life from Negative Space, feeding on Spiritual Power. The more intelligent beings it charms, the stronger it becos.
Nuwa managed all the data on the Dark Web and, through data comparison, roughly figured out the identity of the latent Evil God on Sea Dragon Star.
"This Evil God is very cunning, with extrely high intelligence."
Nuwa said, "This is no idiot Evil God like the one on Purple Dragon Star. Everyone you et on Sea Dragon Star could be the Evil God."
She finally said, "The most terrifying thing about the Charm Race Evil God is that it can fragnt its spirit and lurk in the hearts of believers. As long as one loyal believer doesn't die, it can revive and be reborn..."
The Charm Race Evil God might not be very powerful, but it's the most cunning. And the hardest to fight against.
Gao Xuan asked, "Then what should we do, kill everyone?"
Nuwa shook her head, "The divinity of the Charm Race Evil God's fragntation is also limited; it can't divide indefinitely. Only the most loyal believers can accept its divinity. And the believers who accept the divinity will inevitably show a special side..."
The divinity of the Charm Race Evil God is very strong, making its believers distinctly different. But finding every Evil God believer among billions of people is extrely difficult.
Even with vast amounts of data, Nuwa still couldn't distinguish the Evil God believers among the crowd.
If the Evil God cannot be completely eradicated, next ti it learns from its experiences, killing it will be more challenging.
The purpose of the Mo Sect's Hall is to kill Alien Races. Nuwa also supported Gao Xuan in going to kill the Evil God; she just reminded him to be wary of the Evil God's tricks, not to be deceived.
"I understand, sister, don't worry."
Gao Xuan was quite confident, "The Evil Gods aren't smart, they can't outwit ."
"Everywhere on Sea Dragon Star is influenced by the divine power released by the Evil God, impacting all modern technological equipnt heavily. Especially wireless information. Once you delve into Sea Dragon Star, I won't be able to assist you..."
Nuwa still cared a lot about Gao Xuan, and despite his busy state, she nagged him a lot.
Gao Xuan thought perhaps Nuwa was just taking the opportunity to enjoy the drama.
Luckily, the heroine Helen knew nothing. Gao Xuan was thick-skinned enough that it didn't matter to him if Nuwa was just the personification of the Heart of Data or a real beauty.
After a space jump, fifteen days later, the Spear King Mother Ship arrived at Sea Emperor Star.
Sea Emperor Star is also the center of the Sea Emperor Star Realm. Unlike the independent states of the Twelve Star Domain, Hercules had strong control over the other seven Administrative Stars.
Even though the number of Administrative Stars doesn't match the Twelve Star Domain, the Sea Emperor Star Realm is larger, with a higher caliber in population, economy, military, and culture.
Just the Sea Emperor Star had three Golden Sword Saints, showing its montum.
Viewed from the starry sky, the Sea Emperor Star looked like a massive blue water ball.
The surface was almost entirely ocean, with small patches of land interspersed amid the ocean, entirely subrged in blue.
"That's my ho..."
Helen pointed to a small black dot on the blue sea, introducing it to Gao Xuan excitedly.
Gao Xuan was a bit surprised, "That's your ho?"
From here, it was a small black dot, but on the planet's surface, it spanned at least tens of thousands of square kiloters.
"That's right, Divine King Island is my ho. It covers a total area of 297,000 square kiloters..."
"Your ho sure is spacious..."
The lavish lifestyle of Hercules' family also opened Gao Xuan's eyes.
Even for soone with the status of a Golden Sword Saint, claiming such a large territory as personal property was a bit exaggerated.
Sea Emperor Star had a population exceeding 30 billion, with very little land... This scenario highlighted Hercules' opulence even more.
The Spear King was too large, making atmospheric entry particularly inconvenient.
No matter how grand Hercules was, he could only return ho by taking a landing ship.
Even so, a neat formation of dozens of landing ships accompanied Hercules back to Divine King Island.
After the fleet landed, a group was already waiting on the tarmac to welco him.
The leading woman wore a golden crown and a splendid golden gown, looking stunning yet very arrogant.
This woman's sharp gaze continued to focus on Gao Xuan, mixed with curiosity, disdain, and killing intent.
"That's my mother, you can call her the Duchess."
Helen didn't particularly like her mother; there was a tone of helplessness in her voice as she ntioned her, and she cautioned Gao Xuan, "Her mind isn't very good, just ignore her."
anwhile, Pan was whispering to Su Lingyi beside him, "Teacher Su, please help kill that peasant!"
(That's it for today, just two updates to adjust ~)
