The job change is a bizarre and calamity; the nation begs me to tone it down.

Anya's expression immediately changed upon hearing what Rein said over the communication channel.

As the governor, she naturally understood what Ryan meant.

It is important to know that Ashmerkrin rules over a vast star system.

Its information transmission mechanism relies entirely on star beacons scattered throughout various star regions. Through hyperspace resonance between beacons, intelligence can cross dozens of star systems within minutes.

This enables long-distance, high-speed signal transmission.

However, in this desolate and chaotic Starfall Rift, there are no permanent divine court facilities.

Without a beacon to relay the signal, all hyperspace fluctuations would be like rootless duckweed, just like trying to merge a drop of water into the ocean. Let alone sending it back to the Divine Court, even sending it out of the Starfall Abyss would be a pipe dream.

Anya's mind raced for a moment, and she asked in a deep voice, "If we don't use hyperspace communication and rely on the fleet to fly, how long would it take to escape this chaotic star system at full speed?"

On the other side of the bridge, Rein gave a wry smile and explained quickly, "Governor, this simply won't work. Not to mention that our flagship's main power unit is already overloaded by 40 percent, and many of the secondary nozzles are completely destroyed. It simply cannot withstand long-term high-intensity overload navigation."

"Even if the other escort ships are still operational, it would take at least five to seven days of continuous sailing to break out of this vacuum ring at normal speed and reach the nearest Libra Stargate."

"These past few days..."

Renn didn't continue speaking, but Anya already understood.

Five to seven days.

If what Gu Xu said is true, then the Old God's agent, Munedimi, is constructing the Zogra's Descent Array within the Divine Realm.

Let alone seven days, even a delay of just three days could completely shatter the defense system of the entire Starfall Divine Realm. At that time, trillions of living beings would be drained of their souls without their knowledge and become nourishment for the descent of the old gods.

They waited several days until they slowly flew back to the stargate before reporting the information.

At that point, let alone whether the intelligence will be received by the Divine Court, it's uncertain whether the Divine Court will even still exist.

Moreover, although the billions of Eclipse Warriors and pseudo-gods' followers on the periphery were temporarily intimidated and forced to retreat by the young man before them, they did not disperse.

Once the fleet leaves this relatively stable area, the starship group, deprived of the protection of high-level combat power, will be torn to shreds by the frenzied swarm of insects in an instant.

"Isn't there any other way?"

Thinking of this, Anya couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

Raine took a deep breath into the communicator, as if making a firm decision: "There's only one way. We still have a set of folding heavy star beacon components on board."

"As long as we can find a relatively stable solid celestial body within half a light-second radius, and forcibly smash the beacon into the core for anchoring, we can tear open a high-intensity relay crack and send the message back to the heart of the Divine Court."

Anya's eyes flickered, but quickly darkened again: "How long will it take to set up the beacon?"

"It will take at least two standard hours!"

"Moreover, during the two standard times when the beacon is charged and deployed, an extremely strong energy beacon wave will be released, and the hundreds of billions of dimensional eroders that have dispersed around will definitely rush over like flies that smell blood."

At this point, Ryan didn't continue, but Anya understood perfectly well.

In twenty minutes, a counterattack of hundreds of billions of insects.

Given the current state of the Libra Nexus fleet, riddled with holes, it wouldn't last even five minutes.

It will be thoroughly chewed up and swallowed.

As for herself, her magic power was almost depleted, and her limbs and bones were being ravaged by the side effects of the enhancement potion. She even had to rely on her skeletal structure to support her body so that she could stand up straight.

It's simply impossible to deploy Valkyrie Domain again to protect the beacon.

To put it bluntly, after going around in circles, we're still stuck on a dead end.

In the starry sky, faint dust drifted along the edge of the black mist.

Anya stood on the damaged deck of the ship, her chest heaving a few times, as she began to gather her thoughts.

But soon, she raised her head, her gaze passing over the starry sky, and finally landing on the human boy with a calm expression.

As the governor of Ashmerkton, who held real power over several major star sectors, he never bowed his back, even when meeting with the ruling elders of the Divine Court.

But now, it's not just about the life or death of her vanguard fleet, but about the entire Starfall Divine Realm, and billions of civilizations and beings.

Thinking of this, Anya gritted her teeth, dragged her stiff steps away from the starship, and walked towards Gu Xu.

She stopped when she was about several dozen meters away from the red sedan chair. Instead of getting any closer, she lowered her head slightly, placed her right hand across her chest, and performed a Ashmerkold knightly salute: "Your Excellency."

Gu Xu raised his eyelids, glanced at her, and said nothing.

Seeing this, Anya did not adopt any superior attitude, but instead lowered her posture to the extreme: "With your perception ability, you must have heard our internal communication clearly just now."

Gu Xu nodded, not denying it: "I heard you. You can't even send a signal."

These words were quite blunt, making Anya's expression somewhat awkward.

However, she had no time to worry about saving face, nor did she have the right to care about the teasing tone in the other person's voice.

After all, when you ask someone for a favor, you have to adopt the attitude of someone asking for a favor.

As long as the other party is willing to help, she shouldn't complain about being teased.

She could accept being slapped twice right now.

Thinking of this, Anya spoke again, her tone full of sincerity: "Your Excellency, since you already know about our predicament, I won't beat around the bush."

"You surely know the current state of our Libra Hub Fleet: all support matrices are overloaded, and the ships are severely damaged!"

"To put it bluntly, on our own, we couldn't even last two hours of beacon charging!"

"Even if the retreating insect swarms regroup and surround us, we won't survive for more than ten minutes."

At this point, she raised her head, her once sharp eyes, which held a commanding presence, now filled with pleading: "So... I want to ask for your protection!"

"Please help us protect this area until the Star Beacon completes its hyperspace broadcast and saves all life in the entire star system."

The way she said that was incredibly conscientious and responsible.

However, Gu Xu remained indifferent to the woman's plea for help and did not immediately agree.

Of course, his mind was rapidly weighing the pros and cons.

He didn't intervene to save the remaining fleet out of any good intentions.

Ultimately, the Starfall Divine Realm is simply too vast.

He was completely clueless about the star map, the distribution of power in this star field, and the coordinates of the altar where Munetimi might be hiding. Even if he had several concept-level calamity servants, it would be impossible for him to find an Old God's agent who was deliberately hiding in a vast and boundless sea of ​​stars.

It's like looking for a needle in a haystack.
