Ti slowly passed.
Outer regions of the Cerena Star System Group.
A scout fleet from the neighboring star system, under the influence of the Blaze Civilization, was advancing stealthily.
"In the past half month..."
"That group from Serenity, they haven’t made any moves at all."
"This is really too strange."
"No wonder the Lord specifically ordered us to investigate."
Inside the main ship, a tall yet thin man, resembling a bamboo pole, muttered to himself.
He was the Commander-in-Chief of this scout fleet, and also a Tier Seventeen Evolver of the Blaze Civilization.
His attributes, which he had awakened, had exploration and concealnt abilities, making him the strongest scout within the Blaze Civilization.
But at this mont.
This Commander looked out at the starry sky through the ship’s window, feeling inexplicably uneasy.
"Empty, silent..."
"Logically, we should have already breached the outermost defense lines..."
"Even if we are equipped with advanced detection modules, our presence should likely have appeared on the Serenity’s star map by now..."
"In the past, at such tis, Serenity’s alarms would have been blaring in the ship’s hold nonstop."
Despite the strangeness felt in his heart.
But knowing the importance of this mission, he still ordered the fleet to continue advancing, deeper into the Serenity star map.
Ti passed slowly.
Unbeknownst to them, another two days had passed.
This scout fleet of the Blaze Civilization had officially entered the inner ring of the star map.
But...
Still, there were no warning communications, nor any warship intercepts.
The entire Serenity Star System was unbelievably silent, as if it were uninhabited.
"Sir..."
"Should we... continue deeper..."
The fleet’s deputy commanders had already sensed the abnormal situation.
And the tall, slender man, after a slight hesitation, still gritted his teeth and gave the order.
"Proceed!"
"Our mission is to gather information!"
"How can we return before obtaining valuable intelligence?"
In the endless starry sky.
This scout fleet continued advancing quietly.
Only this ti, they moved even slower and dared not perform consecutive short-range space jumps — that would significantly increase the risk of detection.
Three days.
For a whole three days.
This Blaze Civilization fleet pushed deeper into the core area of the star system group without rest.
But...
There were still no warnings, no intercepts.
The entire star system group, once ruled by the Serenity Civilization, was eerily silent, instilling fear.
"Huff—"
The fleet’s Commander-in-Chief stared outside the cabin window, breathing heavily.
He had maintained this posture for three days straight.
He attempted to find any clues or possible ambushes from the Serenity Civilization within this starry sky.
"Wait!"
"That is..."
Suddenly.
The man’s eyes widened, nearly screaming.
[Beep—!]
[Beep Beep—!]
At the sa mont.
In the fleet’s control cabin, a sharp alarm blared non-stop.
[Alert!]
[Alert!!]
[In the star realm ahead, nurous fortress warship wreckages detected!]
[After computational analysis...]
[The danger level of the star realm ahead is extrely high!]
[Please adjust the course to avoid! Please adjust the course to avoid!]
The alert sounded, but it wasn’t from the Serenity Civilization, rather from the warship’s onboard artificial intelligence system.
"Gulp—!"
In the control cabin full of people.
The swallowing of saliva, accompanied by the sharp alarm, sounded incessantly.
Each commander and fleet mber looked at the countless black spots at the edge of the starry sky, their scalp tingling.
"Approach!"
"Approach!!"
The Commander’s voice was trembling, but his tone remained incredibly firm.
As a scout, no matter how dangerous, he had to investigate.
Besides...
The secret of Serenity’s lack of news for half a month seed to be right in front of them, about to be unveiled!
Half an hour later.
Finally, the man and all other mbers of the fleet could see clearly.
The black spots in the starry sky, so emitting a faint glow, were all wreckages!
Throughout the vast starry sky, it was filled with remnants of fortress warships!
At this mont.
It was as if they had entered a terrifying space graveyard!
Buried within...
"Serenity!"
"The fortress wreckage bears the marks of the Serenity Civilization!"
A sharp explosion burst forth in the cabin.
The tall Commander-in-Chief’s face twitched violently.
"Continue... continue deeper!"
He almost trembled as he issued this command.
Then...
He saw more, more wreckages marked with the Serenity Civilization.
These wreckage pieces ca from forts and warships of various sizes and models.
The scout fleet passed through this space graveyard.
Until...
Stopping in front of an enormous fortress wreckage, nearly a hundred tis the size of the scout fleet’s main ship.
The main body of the wreckage was engraved with the clear nuric designation ’V-701’.
"It’s... it’s..."
"The Super Large Fortress of the Serenity’s Seventh Group Army!"
"Not only that, this number belongs to the main fortress of the Seventh Group Army!"
The entire Blaze scout fleet was in shock.
But imdiately.
They realized their shock ca too early.
Because...
After the ’V-701’ Super Large Fortress wreckage, they discovered more, more Super Large Fortress wreckages!
Their total number had completely exceeded everyone’s imagination.
"One hundred, two hundred..."
"Two hundred fortresses?"
"This is already all of the Super Large Fortresses of the Serenity Civilization!"
As the forr adversary of the Serenity Civilization, the Blaze Civilization had an intimate understanding of the forr’s military strength, if not down to the last detail, then certainly with great clarity.
The man, as the Commander-in-Chief of the scout fleet, could even accurately state the basic fortress warship configuration of the Serenity’s seven main armies, as well as the corresponding army leaders’ nas.
