40,000 Years of Cultivation

"Porco..."

Chu Zhixiao wanted to say something, but Li Yao pulled his "thinking touch" away from the other's soul.

It's almost done. Going on, his own soul is going to get goose bumps.

Li Yao just wanted to gently "push" Chu Zhixiao, planting a seed of doubt and resistance in the soul of the Slaughter Goddess, but he didn't want to deeply hypnotize the other party, he had to let the other party follow his own will. Act.

If he really strengthens hypnosis and bewitching, it might make Chu Zhixiao abruptly become a rebel, but what is the difference between this and the "brainwashing" of the Supreme Master and the Puppet King?

He can only do this. Whether Chu Zhixiao can take the first step of resistance is up to her own. Li Yao cannot violently interfere.

Besides, the Xinghai jump is about to end, and the colorful "kaleidoscopes" all around are gently shaking, overlapping each other.

They have traversed the four-dimensional universe, leaped billions of light-years away, and jumped to the heart of the empire.

Of course, before getting rid of the four-dimensional state, Li Yao had not forgotten that the four members of the Yasha squad and the puppet king left a faint mark in the brain that hardly anyone would notice.

It was like a coordinate that could penetrate all armor and shielding barriers, allowing him to locate the five people in an instant.

The crossing is over.

It's like a bungee jumper falling to the bottom of the valley, suddenly being dragged by the safety rope around his waist, and bouncing up.

Everyone felt that the internal organs had been twisted severely, generating the urge to spin around, nausea and vomiting, and then, the kaleidoscope swirling around quickly condensed and reorganized, and once again became a certain entity in the three-dimensional world.

People looked at each other in a trance like a big dream.

Chu Zhixiao was even more suspicious, staring at the spider chariot-Li Yao in a daze.

She rubbed her temples lightly, not sure what was going on with the "dream" just now.

Li Yao obediently lay down beside her, even curling up six limbs to his abdomen, as if he was in a dormant state.

Chu Zhixiao looked at Li Yao, and then at the puppet king. After thinking for a long time, there was still no result.

However, the pain and hesitation between the eyes showed that the seeds of doubt and resistance had taken root in the depths of her soul, and the vines and branches that grew out gradually entangled her soul and shaped her soul. Became a brand new shape.

Chu Zhixiao took a deep breath, stood up, and looked out through the virtual porthole.

Li Yao also took the opportunity to release "Thinking", invading the main control crystal brain, navigation system and sensors all over the shuttle ship to collect data like a tide.

This is a dark star field.

In many virtual entertainment works and thrilling games, cosmic voyages are often carried out in a bright sea of ​​stars. No matter where you jump, there are countless belts of stars, planets, satellites and asteroids serving as battlefields. There are endless stars as the background.

In fact, things like "planets" were originally extremely rare existences in the universe.

Planets—whether stars, planets, satellites, or even erratic asteroids, are distributed in the universe as if a handful of fine sand is raised and scattered on a huge square. On average, there is less than one per cubic meter. Gravel-it's so sparse.

Therefore, most of the time, there is nothing in the universe, no light and heat, no matter, no fluctuations, and only endless darkness, coldness and despair.

The same is true of this star field.

It is even difficult for Li Yao to rely on the shuttle's sensors to find even a celestial body to serve as a reference. It can only be seen from the coordinates provided by the navigation system. It is indeed near the polar celestial realm, and the distance from the resource-rich area of ​​the polar celestial realm is about There are three to five light-years away.

It was really "nearby" enough, three to five light-years away, and it would take several decades to travel at regular speeds. No wonder Xiao Ming and Wenwen did not notice the existence of the main force of the Saint League-Fuxi Fleet.

That's right, although there are no cosmic celestial bodies, humans and their ancestors--the various devastating killing machines built by those so-called "gods", still tore the cold, ignited the darkness, and appeared here.

The tail flames of countless starships and the spatial ripples they created when they jumped here gathered together, forming a mighty torrent.

"Here... how many starships are there?"

Li Yao muttered to himself, his scalp numb.

The Fuxi fleet is still gathering, and starships are constantly jumping out of the void, like sharks floating in the deep sea.

In order to ensure the safety of star sea jumping, most of the starships are so far apart that they cannot be identified with the naked eye and ordinary crystal eyes.

However, the shuttle ship still received data from the core of the Fuxi fleet and guided them a path. By the way, it also let them know how many silent star beasts were scattered in the darkness around them.

Li Yao has never seen such a large fleet.

Whether in the "Federal Counterattack" of the Star Federation, the "Millennium Starship Battle" in the Seven Seas Star Region, and the "Emperor Capital Battle" in the Extreme Heaven Realm, hundreds of millions of tons of steel were built together, collided and burned. Explosion and annihilation, the sum of the starships of the enemy and ours, neither, nor the Fuxi fleet in front of us is so huge and terrifying!

This is because, regardless of the empire or the federation, the rulers and people are living human beings, people of flesh and blood, emotions and selfish desires.

Even in the most extreme circumstances, it is impossible to gather all the starships in one place, but abandon other places regardless.

The vast majority of troops still have to guard strategic points in each world, maintain supply lines and defense lines, and at least suppress local riots and riots that may occur.

In this case, the Federation and the Empire can use one-third of their mobile forces to invest in a strategic decisive battle.

This is not so much the limit of technology and resource allocation, but rather the limit of human nature.

But the Saint League people are a group of guys who are inhumane at all.

Therefore, Li Yao doubted very much that Shengmeng had really drained the last resources and the last soldier of each of the Great Thousand Worlds under its banner, and brought them all to the front regardless of recklessness.

As for logistical supplies, the order in the rear is not considered at all, it is a desperate move, and it will not accept any possibility other than victory.

"The Holy League people are really... crazy, just like this, betting on all the net worth, the five great masters have never considered the problem of losing or staying in a stalemate for ten or eight years?"

Li Yao really couldn't understand the strategy of the Shengmeng.

He even had a weird feeling that this kind of "one wave of equalization" tactics is not like a real-world war, but rather like a super-large crystal brain game.

"It seems that Lei Chenghu's judgment is correct. There are really great problems within the Shengmeng people, or that their system is rigid from the beginning, without creativity and motivation to move forward."

The Scarlet Heart Demon said, "Millennium development is already at the limit. They have reached the peak of fragility. If they remain at a stalemate, more and more'puppet kings' and'infected ones' and'awakened ones' will appear, making this system from Internal collapse.

"Therefore, the five great masters are desperate, even if they come out of their nests, they will not hesitate to solve the empire before it collapses!

"As for the rear world without sufficient troops to maintain order, the question of whether it will fall into chaos, complete collapse, etc., is definitely not within the consideration of the Supreme Master. Anyway, no matter how many people are, it is just'soldier bee' and ' 'Worker bees', when they die, they are all dead. As long as they can occupy the empire, which is the resource-rich area in the center of Xinghai, they will naturally get more'soldier bees' and'worker bees'."

"indeed so."

Li Yao murmured, "The Holy Alliance first made a major attack on the Empire’s new recovery area and separated the expeditionary army from the empire’s homeland. On the one hand, it was a blow to the morale of the empire, and on the other hand, it was also a trick to make the empire. No one would have imagined that they would be so crazy and deployed to such a dark star field where there is no resource at all."

It is an extremely risky act to deploy the mighty fleet obtained from the assembly of the nation's soldiers to such a dark star field with no celestial bodies and no psychic powers.

Of course, this place is not far from the imperial capital, and in a state of "black under the lights", it is not easy to be scanned by the imperial guard forces.

However, the attacker cannot get even a single pebble on the spot. All the supplies must be transported from the rear through the star sea jump, and the loss is more than astronomical!

It is as absurd as the "800,000 army" stationed in a desert on the ancient battlefield. Every portion of food and water must be transported from the rear. The transportation of one portion of food consumes another ten portions of food. If you don't start the war as soon as possible, you will drag yourself to death.

Therefore, no matter the military academies of the Federation or the Empire, when teaching and commanding strategy, they never regard this kind of resourceless dark star field as a rallying point—even if these places are close to the enemy's strategic points. No way.

Frustrated like the Black Wind Fleet, when assaulting the Confederation, it also searched for a star field with brown dwarfs. Just using the gravity of brown dwarfs can save a lot of fuel.

The commander of any empire or federation who dared to propose a plan of setting the dark star field as a rallying point would definitely be sent to the hospital by all his generals and staff to check his brain.

However, the madness of the Shengmeng surpassed everyone's expectations.

As the shuttle was sailing in the dark, he could faintly feel the tail flames of countless starships shining around him, just like the shining fangs of a giant star beast.

They are like a small fish, strayed into the gluttonous feast of sharks.

After sailing for a full day, he went deep into the core of the "shark school" and heard the call more and more clearly.

Ahead is the flagship of the Fuxi fleet, the Ultimate Salvation!
