Chapter 424 Spy
"Giant Star Bug!!"

[Exotic life form!!]

Looking at the images presented in the holographic projection, several exclamations and a burst of unstable stroboscopic light were suddenly heard in the quiet prayer place.

Some blurry images in the holographic interface quickly disappeared - in front of these giant scorpion-like insects that could travel the universe in their physical bodies, the cheap detectors produced by self-split naturally had no ability to fight back. With just a single encounter, these detectors were turned into dust in the starry sky under the opponent's attack.

"Wait..." Chen Fan was the first to come back to his senses and cast a questioning look at Ophelia beside him: "Is this the alien life form and invasion from another world you mentioned?"

Ophelia bit her lip lightly, with a hint of resentment deep in her eyes.

【Yes. 】

[More than fifty years ago, these alien life forms appeared in the land of creation without any warning, and attacked the home planet of Xinaluo without hesitation...]

Before Ophelia finished her words, Chen Fan noticed the problem.

According to the information previously given by [Su Zheng], the Star Zerg appeared near the central black hole of the node universe.

Considering that the central black hole is connected to the anti-universe, the initial speculation was that these giant star worms should be life in the anti-universe.

But after entering the anti-universe, Chen Fan discovered that the entire anti-universe was like an empty ghost town. Except for the accidentally discovered Xinalo civilization, so far, excluding the giant star worm just now, even the self-splitting detector has not found the existence of any living creatures or civilizations.

At the same time, Ophelia's name for these giant insects is a bit strange.

Alien invasions and alien life forms.

Could it be that……

Aren’t these hideous giant star bugs also the natives of the anti-universe?
So where do they come from?
Not only Chen Fan, but also Wang Jing who was far away in the research ship was aware of this problem.

"Queen Ophelia, do alien life forms only appear in the Land of Creation?"

Wang Jing's serious voice came from the communication channel: "Before invading Xinaluo's home planet... have you ever seen these giant insects in other star regions?"

Hearing Wang Jing's question, Ophelia was slightly stunned, and then frowned tightly.

After thinking for a long time, she slowly shook her head: [I...I don't know.]

"Not sure?"

On the side, Chen Fan looked at Ophelia in astonishment.

He thought of various answers, but he never expected Ophelia to give such an answer: "Then why do you call these giant insects alien life forms?"

"If I understand correctly, the word "exotic" should not belong to this universe in Xinaluo's dictionary, right?"

【Because this is what the Star God told us.】

As she spoke, Ophelia looked at Chen Fan in surprise, as if he had asked a stupid question whose answer was obvious.

[As for whether these giant insects have been found outside the Land of Creation...]

Ophelia shook her head repeatedly: [I really don’t know about this matter. ]

[It's not just me. I guess everyone in the entire Xinaluo civilization can't explain this clearly. ]

Ophelia explained: [The reason is very simple. When we were in the Creation Land, the previous queen was directly responsible for the exploration outside the galaxy. Unless the queen took the initiative to explain, no one else had the right to ask about the exploration situation...]

Hearing this, Chen Fan's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Suffered.

From experience, if nothing unexpected happens, something unexpected will happen.

"Didn't the process of extraterrestrial exploration leave any records?"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Chen Fan had already prepared himself for the worst.

[There are indeed files.] Ophelia spread out her hands, which were glowing with a faint fluorescent light, with helplessness written all over her face, [But all the information is stored in the master database of Xinaluo's home planet. During the war...]

As expected.

Even the civilization technology tree has suffered a certain degree of loss, so it is naturally impossible for such relatively unimportant archives to survive by chance.

"Didn't the previous queen mention this matter?" Chen Fan gritted his teeth and asked unwillingly.

Such a major event concerning the life and death of civilization cannot be left unsaid, right?

【not at all. 】

[Of course, it is also possible that they did not tell us.] The helpless look on Ophelia's face became more and more intense: [The war situation was urgent at the time. In order to resist the invasion of these alien life forms, even the Queen led the royal fleet to the front battlefield.]

【And then……】

Ophelia sighed silently: [The fleet won a tragic victory, with a death toll of over 90%. The previous queen was also severely wounded and passed away soon after.]

have to.

This is truly a dead end with no evidence.

From this perspective, Ophelia really took over a mess...

No wonder she issued a no-fly order, strictly restricting the Xinaro people from leaving the current galaxy - if she hadn't done so, the entire civilization would have fallen apart long ago!
"wait wait wait!"

As he sighed, Chen Fan's expression suddenly changed. He finally realized a problem belatedly -

"A tragic victory?!"

Chen Fan looked at Queen Xinaluo in front of him in great surprise: "You mean... facing these star bugs, Xinaluo civilization still won?"

【certainly. 】

Ophelia's eyes also became strange: [Otherwise, how could the Xinalo civilization continue to this day? ]

She added half-jokingly: [Those alien life forms don’t treat their captives well.]

Chen Fan didn't smile at all as he listened to Ophelia's words.

Something is wrong, 12 out of 10 things are wrong!

According to [Su Zheng]'s description, in order to deal with several giant space insects, [Su Zheng] not only sacrificed his own extremely large fleet, but was even forced to use the suicide trick of a large black hole collision to barely achieve victory. [Su Zheng] at that time...

But it’s a real level eight civilization!

It is even the best among the eighth-level civilizations!!

Even so, in order to deal with several giant star insects, [Su Zheng] paid an extremely heavy price!

Let’s look at the Xinalo civilization.

Even if the Xinalo civilization was at its peak at that time, it was just a level six civilization that had just mastered space technology. How could it possibly fight against those powerful giant insects?

"Drip-drip-drip-"

Just as Chen Fan fell into deep thought, the shrill alarm sounded again from the communication channel.

Chen Fan's body trembled violently, and he subconsciously turned his head to look at Wang Jing in the communication interface: "Academician Wang..."

I have to admit, this sharp warning sound is really annoying.

next second.

"Abnormal space-time field fluctuations?! Extremely high intensity?!"

Wang Jing's expression suddenly changed: "Master brain, immediately analyze the other party's destination!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge star map covering an area of ​​15,000 light years appeared on the holographic interface.

In the star map, a faint white dotted line slowly emerged.

The starting point of the dotted line is the red emission nebula that covers a star field of nearly 8,000 light years.

The dotted line continued to extend and suddenly passed through the Xinalo star system where Chen Fan was.

Chen Fan's face changed slightly, and he had already realized in his heart that the person who came was not friendly! The other party was coming for them!

but……

Well done!!!
It just so happened that he had some doubts about the origin and strength of these giant star insects. What other way could he get the information faster than capturing the enemy?

"Everyone, return to the Investigator Starship immediately."

Without any hesitation, Chen Fan issued a combat order to Hong Shi and two investigator assistants not far away: "Prepare for battle!"

As he spoke, he turned to look at Ophelia, who had a confused look in her eyes, and said apologetically: "Queen Ophelia, I'm sorry, these giant insects should have been attracted by our curvature fluctuations."

“It was our mistake.”

"You and your civilization do not need to take action. We will get rid of these bugs as soon as possible. All losses incurred by the Xinaluo civilization will be borne by the Human Union..."

[No.] Ophelia came back to her senses, shook her head, and interrupted Chen Fan.

[The Xinaluo expeditionary fleet will also participate in this war. ]

She had a resolute expression, and her dark brown pupils stared straight at the stunned Chen Fan: [Based on the previous combat experience of the Xinaluo civilization, this should just be a spy sent by the other side. ]

[If we can't even deal with a few spies, how can we take back our home planet? ]

Chen Fan was speechless.

"Well said." Wang Jing's approving voice came from the communication channel, "If a civilization wants to survive in the universe, it must have some courage."

"Let the Xinalo civilization join the war."

"Deal with these spies first, then consider the plan of expedition to the Land of Creation!"

……

Outside the palace.

Gurchi, wearing the long-obsolete 71XC1 combat armor, stared silently at the silent palace in front of him.

The khaki investigator starship was like a huge black bird, crawling silently above the magnificent palace.

Behind and beside Gulchi, countless Xinalo people, also wearing old armor, were waiting quietly.

Having been suppressed for decades, they are waiting for an order.

An order to counterattack the mother planet.

suddenly.

A dim figure appeared on the towering city wall.

Snapped!
A crisp sound rang out under the dim sky, and the light of the searchlight shone directly on the dim and blurry figure.

The figure quickly became clear.

It was a shiny, latest model of standard combat armor.

The thick and hard mask slowly rose up, revealing a face that was very familiar to everyone.

【Greetings to you. 】

The palace guards who were standing at the foot of the city wall and were responsible for maintaining order recognized the identity of the person who came. They bent down and performed a respectful ceremony to the Xinalo woman on the city wall who had a similar face to Her Majesty the Queen: [General Artesia. ]

[General Artesia?! ]

Gurchi, who knew Artesia's identity, trembled slightly, saluted, and cast an earnest look at her.

I wonder what kind of orders Her Majesty the Queen will convey?
He was thinking anxiously in his heart.

Without any unnecessary steps, under the gaze of all the Xinaro people, Artesia's body began to glow, and with the power of the combat armor, the originally faint fluorescence quickly became brighter.

【The Queen has ordered.】

[Immediately lift the air defense ban on Xinaluo Star, rebuild the expedition fleet, and counterattack the mother planet today! ! ]
