Interstellar boss, she doesn't talk about martial arts

Chapter 1782 The Starry Sky Is So Beautiful Tonight (Two Chapters Combined)

The most obvious evidence is that in the recent battle against the real Insect Mother's Egg, Little Yellow Chicken Ah Chou was somewhat outmatched.

It was thanks to her help that Little Yellow Chicken, Ugly, was able to eat the last egg of the insect mother.

Therefore, we still need to do more preparation.

Xia Chujian thought for a moment, then went back to her home and called over the teacup dog Awu, the chubby little bird Ayuan, and the little yellow chicken Achou to discuss the matter with them.

“Awu, Ayuan, and Achou, I want to arrange a schedule for you.”

"Eight hours each time, you will patrol the starry sky above Guiyuan Star."

"Notify me immediately if you detect any Zerg presence, okay?"

Before Awu and Ayuan could speak, the little yellow chick Achou exclaimed in surprise, "Master! I have already covered half of the star field above Guiyuan Star with my aura!"

"No Zerg dares to come over!"

Xia Chujian said, "It's better to be safe than sorry. What if there are insectoids that aren't afraid of your aura?"

Little Yellow Chicken A Chou wanted to say "Impossible!"
But then he remembered that he had failed to defeat the last egg of the queen insect last time, and he immediately became listless.

Nodding: "Okay, eight hours it is!"

Ah Wu and Ah Yuan also said, "We can patrol the sky together; the two of us can work for sixteen hours straight without any problem."

Xia Chujian knew they would definitely be fine.

Moreover, the two kids have a good relationship and don't want to be apart, which is understandable.

She patted the two little ones' heads and said, "Then together."

"You two shouldn't be too playful. If the Zerg attack, be sure to notify me immediately."

She hesitated for a moment, then said, "I don't want you to be discovered by others."

"So, when I'm not around, don't take the initiative to attack."

Awu and Ayuan both smiled and said, "Okay, sister!"

"We'll watch the house for our sister! We won't take matters into our own hands!"

Xia Chujian looked at them suspiciously, feeling that there was something hidden in their words.

However, she had no evidence.

Little Yellow Chicken Ugly burped and said, "I need to sleep more."

"Sleep sixteen hours a day. Let me know when your time is up."

Ah Wu and Ah Yuan are of course fine.

Xia Chujian was finally relieved.

With defenses in both the air and on the ground, there shouldn't be any problems, right?
……

That night, Xia Chujian returned home but couldn't sleep. Alone, she took a glass of golden juice, went to the terrace, and looked up at the vast starry sky.

It wasn't a place that was out of reach for her, because she had actually been there, more than once, and she could go whenever she wanted.

Even so, she still felt a deep sense of awe for the starry sky.

Because you never know when or where something might go wrong.

What kind of being might suddenly descend from the other side of the starry sky?

She watched silently, wanting to try again her ethereal "spiritual power" that never obeyed her commands.

As expected, it didn't work.

She doesn't have that kind of mental strength until a certain point is reached.

Xia Chujian sighed and took a sip of the golden juice.

Huo Yushen stopped beside her and said calmly, "...Can't you sleep?"

Xia Chujian glanced at him: "How did you know I came out?"

Huo Yushen said, "The terraces here are all within my surveillance range."

"Even if a bird flies by, I'll know it, let alone a living person standing here."

Xia Chujian looked away and said with a smile, "You were better when you were serious and didn't smile much. You talk too much now."

Huo Yushen: "..."

Is he a talkative person?
He barely speaks to even his own mother, She Zhuyin.

Who in this world can make him talk so much without him even realizing it?
She's the only one.

Unfortunately, this little fool doesn't understand anything at all.

Huo Yushen stood expressionless with his hands behind his back, his gaze fixed ahead.

That's the direction of Mulan City.

At this moment, Mulan City is still brightly lit, with towering buildings and an atmosphere of wealth and peace.

At this moment, the entire Northern Chen Empire's attention was focused on Guiyuan Star.

As everyone knows, Empress Tantai Zijun has sealed off the wormholes connecting this habitable planet to other planets.

At this point, Guiyuan Star had become a truly lonely star.

Mulan City, the largest city on Guiyuan Star, is the focus of everyone's attention.

Xia Chujian waited for a while and noticed that Huo Yushen was not speaking, so she couldn't help but turn her gaze to him.

His profile under the starry sky was so perfect that one glance would make you fall in love.

Xia Chujian seemed to be noticing for the first time that Huo Yushen's nose was so straight it looked as if it had been measured with a ruler.

The superior jawline is so beautifully defined that it's breathtaking.

Even her breathing seemed to freeze for a moment.

Huo Yushen didn't look at her, but a slight smile appeared on his lips.

Xia Chujian blinked, looked away, and felt her heart beating a little fast.

She rubbed the back of her neck, feeling exhausted from the past few days and needing to go back and get a good night's sleep.

Strangely enough, she had been suffering from insomnia and couldn't sleep.

But after Huo Yushen came over and said a few words to her, she suddenly felt sleepy and wanted to go to sleep.

That's right, Huo Yushen's typical baritone voice also has a magnetic quality like a deep bass cannon.

As soon as he spoke, his voice, like a beam of energy, pierced through her Azure Titanium Armor and struck her heart.

She pursed her lips.

She looked up at the sky and thought that the starry sky tonight must be so beautiful that it made her dizzy.

Lust can cloud judgment.

Xia Chujian rubbed her temples, turned around and walked towards her room, saying, "Then stay by yourself for a while. I'm sleepy and want to go back to sleep."

Huo Yushen didn't turn around, but simply nodded and said, "...Goodnight."

Her slightly nasal voice had an indescribable charm in the night, as if it were bewitching someone.

Xia Chujian paused for a moment, but after yawning, she felt that sleeping was more important.

After Xia Chujian returned to her room, Huo Yushen turned around and glanced at her before disappearing onto the terrace outside her bedroom.

……

Just as the entire Northern Star Empire was focused on Guiyuan Star, a slight ripple appeared in the depths of the starry sky of Northern Star.

Neither the space fortresses here nor the stationed interstellar fleets were able to detect such magnetic field changes.

Then, a huge, pitch-black spherical object silently emerged from the ripples and quietly drifted into the atmosphere of North Star.

It did not enter any city on Beichen Star, but instead quietly landed near the imperial capital and mausoleum.

The next second, a jelly-like ripple appeared on the open ground outside the imperial mausoleum.

It resembled a small wormhole, though it was much larger than the miniature wormholes Xia Chujian and the others had used.

The miniature wormholes opened using small wormhole openers can only accommodate one person at a time.

However, this small wormhole-like ripple channel is one kilometer in diameter, large enough for a small interstellar spaceship to pass through. And the spherical object is about the same size as a small interstellar spaceship.

It quickly entered the ripple channel and left Beichen Star.

Fifteen minutes later, it quietly appeared in a certain place within the atmosphere of Guiyuan Star.

Because it came through the ripple channel near the imperial mausoleum outside the capital of Beichen Star, it landed directly on Guiyuan Star without being transmitted through the stars.

Therefore, neither the divine beast Awu nor the star-bird Ayuan, who were patrolling and roaming above Guiyuan Star, noticed anything.

The spherical object landed at the royal plantation south of Mulan City.

That place used to be a place where humanoid slaves lived.

The millions of acres of farmland were all dug out by those humanoid slaves through slash-and-burn agriculture with their bare hands.

Now, there are no more humanoid slaves here, because they have all enlisted in the army.

On the open land, the previous batch of grain had already been harvested and stored in the warehouse.

Right now, this place only has some fertile crops growing here, which can be harvested and used as raw materials for animal feed.

The spherical object landed in the center of a field.

In the silent explosion, countless ruptured membrane tentacles stretched out.

Countless swarms of insects crawled out of the spherical crack.

Their bodies glow with a dark purple bioluminescence, and their compound eyes emit dark purple biosignals devoid of any emotion.

As soon as they emerged from that spherical object, they surged forward like a tide towards Mulan City.

The southern outskirts of Mulan City are mostly farmland, but the massive buildings of the Royal Plantation are also located here.

The plantation executives all had their own luxurious residences here.

A plantation is a small society.

It has everything: streets, residential areas, commercial areas, and even an underground ecological layer.

The Zerg that crawled out of the spherical object immediately shut down the plantation's alarm system.

Soon, they swarmed in, overwhelming everything.

The defense nodes of the Royal Plantation residential area were cut off one by one, and all communications were also interrupted.

The plantation manager had just been awakened by the deafening banging on the door.

He impatiently turned on the intercom in the room, and seeing his bodyguard standing at the door, he said impatiently, "What are you wailing about in the middle of the night?!"

The bodyguards, still shaken, said, "Director, run! The Zerg are attacking!"

The headmaster's eyes widened in shock: "The Zerg?! What did you say?! How could the Zerg possibly... possibly..."

Before he could finish speaking, his gaze turned to the window in terror.

boom!
A loud crash was heard, and the bedroom window shattered with a series of loud noises.

Several Zerglings, each two or three meters tall, rushed in.

Their compound eyes are filled with a dark purple, misty haze devoid of any emotion.

Its forelimbs were like blades; as the blades sliced ​​through, the Royal Plantation Manager was cut into several pieces and lay in a pool of blood.

The woman on the bed was so frightened that she screamed.

Her cries stopped abruptly.

Its entire body was swallowed by a Zergling.

Hearing the shouts from inside, the bodyguards at the door immediately used their guns to unlock the door and rushed inside.

They were immediately confronted by a giant reptilian creature that stood upright and lunged at them!
Ta-ta-ta-ta!

The bodyguards immediately opened fire.

But how could the Zerg's outer shells be penetrated by these ordinary conventional firearms?

The bullets clattered to the ground, failing to even leave a crater in the Zerg's carapace...

The bodyguards couldn't believe their eyes.

The last person to rush in, seeing the situation was not good, immediately turned around and ran away.

He was wearing a second-generation mecha, and once activated, it moved incredibly fast.

By the time the group of bodyguards thought to run away, the Zerg had already pounced...

Even the second-generation mechs worn by these bodyguards were rendered useless against these forelimb blades, which were clearly sharper than those of the previous Zerg.

The people currently living in the royal plantation are all high-ranking officials who manage the plantation, and they are also members of the royal family, albeit from a distant branch, almost beyond the fifth degree of kinship.

At this moment, they never expected that the first wave of Zerg attacks would actually target their Royal Plantation!

The security personnel on the plantation were originally used to oppress the untouchables and slaves.

When truly facing an enemy like the Zerg, their combat power is practically zero.

Thus, the once magnificent royal plantation was reduced to a state of panic as countless people scattered and were gradually swallowed up by the insectoids, disappearing into the chaotic streets and the flames that burned everywhere.

The entire neighborhood was plunged into an eerie silence intertwined with a bloody, apocalyptic scene.

……

Soon, news that the royal plantation on the outskirts of Mulan City's southern district had been attacked by the Zerg and set on fire also reached Mulan City.

Xia Chujian's temporary command post received the message.

She had just returned to Mulan City with weapons and ammunition transferred from Dafu County.

Before dawn, the Zerg launched a massive attack on her!
The Zerg's attack came swiftly and fiercely.

Instead of launching a surprise attack from space, they directly attacked the surface cities of Guiyuan Star.

Xia Chujian didn't have time to consider how the Zerg had arrived; he immediately began deploying defenses for Mulan City.

The sirens blared throughout the city.

"Attention everyone!"

"Attention everyone!"

"The Zerg have broken through the air defenses and reached the ground cities."

"The Zerg are currently attacking the Royal Plantation outside the southern district of Mulan City."

"I, Lieutenant General Xia Chujian, hereby announce that all cities on Guiyuan Star will be placed under 24-hour military control, and the bionic defense system will be activated simultaneously."

"Residents outside the city, please carry your resident ID card and go to the nearest city as soon as possible."

"The areas outside the city will become the battlefield for our army to fight the Zerg."

I'll repeat it again.

"All cities on Guiyuan Star will be under 24-hour military control."

"All residents outside the city should quickly take their ID cards and seek refuge inside the city."

"The time when you can enter major cities on Guiyuan Star is twelve hours."

"Twelve hours later, all cities will no longer be open to accepting residents from outside the city."

The news that Xia Chujian had connected to the distant star was quickly spread to the StarNet.

The users on other habitable planets on the StarNet were all dumbfounded.

Why so fast?
The Zerg didn't launch a surprise attack from outer space, but instead attacked directly from the ground?!

How did they even get there?!

At this time, some trending topics appeared on the StarNet, praising Empress Tantai Zijun for her decisive action.

Because of this action by the Zerg, they were convinced that Guiyuan Star had been thoroughly infiltrated and riddled with holes by the Zerg.

If the Empress hadn't made the decisive decision to seal off all the wormholes on Guiyuan Star, their other habitable planets would definitely have been breached by the Zerg!

　There will be a new update at 12:05 AM.
