"It looks like it was destroyed by a long-range shooting weapon," Long Hubo sighed on the channel.
Wei He did not speak, but looked around the entire battlefield from a distance.
At this time, everything was red in all directions, up, down, left, and right.
The burning fire completely filled everyone's field of vision at this moment. It was as if the entire universe was set on fire.
The huge star gate in front broke and collapsed, and the debris was broken into three pieces and floated in space.
The surrounding fleets were all putting out the fire and making emergency repairs on their own.
The engineering machines responsible for maintenance were like swarms of firefighters and bees putting out fires, buzzing around.
Search and rescue ships began to fly out, looking for surviving colonies and psykers.
In the space environment, psykers can temporarily survive for a period of time relying on their psionic powers even if they lose their colonies.
Wei He sighed in his heart, feeling the majestic spiritual energy in his body.
Although he profited from this encounter, the scene before him still made him tired of war.
"Start counting people now." Long Hubo, as the captain, conveyed the instructions in the channel.
"Received." Wei He and Catri responded together, as did another newly merged Fission.
"Xian?" Wei He called the first person on the list.
"Here we go." The old guy still had two brushes, but he was fine.
After being slightly surprised, Wei He continued to roll call.
"Andy Bonnion."
"exist."
"Dyman?"
No response.
"Tang Kong?"
Still no response
Wei He kept reading, and there were more than forty people left. Only two of them responded, and the rest, whether they were former members or newly added members, were all wiped out.
Including the young man who was so scared before
Wei He suddenly felt that he might not have fulfilled his duty as a captain. Every time a battle started, he would run alone. If he had led a team and charged together, the casualties might not have been so heavy.
But there is no other way. If you want to swallow psychic energy, you must kill it alone.
The miscellaneous army fought on its own, with no tactics at all, and no one could command everyone.
Being able to fight like this depends entirely on your own personal strength.
But Wei He had a hunch that if he was unlucky and encountered the official Kenosas regular army, by then, maybe
The Ugly Duckling was gone, and two-thirds of the troops transported on it had suffered casualties.
Everyone, including Captain Sentan, was merged into another mothership, the Flying Ship.
The entire Pensha Legion also quickly sorted out, reorganized its structure, and continued to the next star gate.
But to go from here to the next star gate, you have to cross at least two interference zones in the middle.
The so-called interference zone is an area of the universe that cannot be directly jumped through space.
These areas often have all kinds of dangerous natural disasters. The space in many places is not stable enough. It is easy for various accidents to occur.
"At least until we pass through the interference zone, it is unlikely that we will encounter the army of Kenosus again."
Inside the cabin.
Long Hubo and Wei He stood and sat together, quietly looking out the window at the receding stars.
"If the next star gate cannot teleport and jump, we will have to look for galaxies for supplies." Long Hubo sighed.
"We didn't even get close to the real battlefield, and we ended up in this tragic situation." Wei He didn't know what to say.
His only hope now is that Bilian's side can go smoothly and not be as miserable as here.
After being intercepted twice in a row, the entire fleet was able to survive until now either because of good luck or because they had some strength to save their lives.
Illumination is like an ant on such a battlefield.
Fission only has a slight chance of saving one's life, but it is equally difficult to deal with the sublime.
The Ascendants seem to be at the top, but there are still strategic weapons staring at them at any time. If they are not careful, they will fall on the spot.
Therefore, when the Ascendants start a war, they either intercept opponents of the same level, or aim to destroy the opponent's strategic weapons.
It's almost impossible to care about other people.
"We are like this? Can we still go back?" Wei He asked softly.
"After repelling the foreign enemies, the empire will arrange a fleet to send us back." Long Hubo replied.
"What if it's not repulsed?"
"I don't know." Long Hubo shook his head. "Maybe by then, these won't be important."
Looking at Longhu Bo, who was a senior fissioner and hundreds of years older than him, his eyes were slightly blank.
"With good luck, we can find the ship to go back to. Bad luck, no one will guide us, and there is insufficient energy to jump. Maybe we will float in the universe until we die of old age."
Wei He had an indescribable feeling in his heart.
Obviously he can sweep away his opponents at the same level, and he has great possibilities in the future.
But there is a strong sense of powerlessness.
Because war never relies on individual strength to reverse victory or defeat.
He is very strong, but there are Ascendants, various strategic weapons, battle stars, and dragon machines on top.
Moreover, the universe is too big, too big
This deep powerlessness gradually transformed the confusion in Wei He's heart into some kind of desire.
"There is news from the school that yesterday Kenosus dispatched a dragon machine, the first of their two Tyrannosaurus. Together with the Holy Infant Legion of Kenosus, they defeated the Red Stone Legion responsible for the defense on the right side.
"Longhu Bo said in a deep voice.
"What's the meaning?"
"The Red Stone Legion is the main force of the Seventh Legion." Long Hubo showed an indescribable expression, "In other words, the Seventh Legion is almost gone before we are in place."
""
Wei He suddenly didn't know how to answer this sentence.
Should we be grateful? We should be grateful that they didn't succeed in passing, otherwise they would have been handed over in one fell swoop?
Or should we regret that we couldn't get over in time? Maybe with their strength, they could defeat the dragon machine?
"Okay, let's have a good rest. I'm going to see Catri." Long Hubo sighed. "Belkin has contacted the members of the school in other galaxies. Let's meet back together. At this point, we have to think about it carefully.
Think about it later."
"Yeah." Wei He nodded.
The legion cannot jump, and it is unknown how many casualties there will be when passing through the interference zone.
Wei He had actually noticed that many people in the fleet had already decided to quit.
If it was an ordinary area, there would be no chance of an accident happening.
But in the interference area, the signal inside is isolated from the outside. It is completely possible to create some "accidents" to avoid the monitoring of the heart of the ten thousand trees of the empire system, thus creating the illusion of being trapped.
This eliminates the need to support the main battlefield.
Most of the men were dead, but they hadn't even reached the real battlefield yet.
In fact, most people, including Sentan, had their thoughts in mind.
With such a battle loss rate, even if the Pensha Empire wins, it is still enough to cope with the rewards and punishments of the supreme system.
Now, they just need a suitable excuse
"By the way, try not to use psychic channels on this mothership. There are surveillance cameras here." Long Hubo warned Wei He when he left.
"Okay." Wei He stood up and sent Long Hubo away.
After closing the door, he turned around and sat on the sofa, exhaling.
Looking at the other mothership flying parallel outside the window, Wei Heyi did not move for a while.
He didn't like this feeling of being involuntarily.
But now he is powerless to resist. Without the fleet and the vast universe, he can't do anything.

On the outskirts of the star abyss, in the vast void.
A place where space is distorted and rippled.
In front of the wisps of transparent ripples, a red dot suddenly appeared out of thin air.
The red dot grew from small to large, and quickly turned into a ball of red mud as tall as a person.
The red mud slowly formed a human shape, and a red striped suit appeared on the body. The red mud inside the suit deformed and bulged again, like an inflated balloon, filling the suit and completely shaping it into the appearance of a middle-aged man.
"Ah! I haven't been here for a long time. I really miss it." Red Suit breathed deeply, as if there was fresh air in space.
"Your Majesty Barron, how long has it been since you came to visit me?" The ripples in the space slowly deformed, condensing into a huge eye.
The eyes were translucent, the pupils were pale gold, and there were countless black dots slowly rotating in the core.
"Compared to the will conveyed by the master, these are not important." A smile appeared at the corner of the red suit's mouth.
"The great and omnipotent master, does he have a new will?" The huge eyes showed doubts.
"This is also the purpose of my coming here." Barron in the red suit opened his right arm and said, "Send the order to all the beasts to find humans who can restart the process of life."
"What are his characteristics?" asked the giant eyes.
"His spiritual energy has the mark of our star abyss." Barron replied. "Find him."
He paused.
"Cultivation first, then capture it when it is almost mature. His soul and flesh and blood are very special. It may be an opportunity for the masters to break through their shackles."
"Okay, I will follow your orders."
The huge pupils slowly dilated, as if they didn't exist in the first place.
At the same time, an invisible high-spirited wave centered here and quickly spread in all directions like a wave.
This wave is like a relay. After it is transmitted to the nearest star creature, it is amplified and strengthened and continues to spread to the distance.
Time after time, the fluctuations spread more and more. It seems to be endless, spreading towards the four major river systems of mankind.
Barron in the red suit stayed where he was, looking at the high-spirited fluctuations that continued to spread in the distance.
"The restarter of the life process, if I can swallow everything about him, maybe"
The fusion experiment that had an indescribably low probability back then was actually able to be completed by someone.
If such a miraculous life and soul could be completely fused and swallowed, perhaps there would be a fourth master of the Star Abyss.
His whole body suddenly turned into red mud, shrunk rapidly, and in the blink of an eye turned into a red dot again, extinguished and disappeared with a snap.

After passing through the somewhat dark corridor, Wei He glanced at the rest of the people in the ship's assembly hall.
None of the sublimated ones arrived, and the fissioners stood scattered everywhere. Some were in a daze, some were practicing psychic powers, and some were sitting with their eyes closed, not knowing whether they were resting their minds or conversing through psychic sounds.
There is soft music playing in the hall, which is supposed to be relaxing music, but no one is relaxing here.
Wei He found a corner, stood against the wall, and waited quietly.
After successfully digesting the spiritual energy he had just devoured using the Evolution Code, his total amount of spiritual energy at this time exceeded 1,100 spiritual ears in one fell swoop. Now he has officially entered the level of upper fission.
As for the physical body, his body has already reached the upper level of fission. Therefore, it only takes a while for the increased spiritual energy to be adapted and accepted by the body, and then it will be a matter of course, and he will completely enter the corresponding level of upper level fission.
.
Evolving the original code will also automatically enter the next level.
It seems that the evolutionary scriptures have no effect, but in fact, at the level of the ascendant, the spiritual energy contained in the soul reaches its limit.
At that time, when simple spiritual energy devouring has no effect, it is time for the Breaking Realm Bead and the Evolution Original Code to exert their power.
'The fission period is just a simple accumulation of spiritual energy, which is the most beneficial to me.' Wei He closed his eyes and thought.
He quickly searched for information on his personal terminal.
It was discovered that when the upper fission limit is reached, spiritual energy can no longer grow. If it does not break through and sublimate, it will stay at that limit forever, and then gradually weaken with time and old age.
"Come so early?" Carter's voice sounded from the side, interrupting his thoughts.
Wei He opened his eyes.
"Well, I came over as soon as I heard the summons. What happened?"
He has been practicing spiritual arts in his room these days, digesting and devouring a large amount of spiritual energy.
In just a few days, he surpassed the amount of psychic energy that would take others hundreds of years to accumulate.
If someone knew about this kind of thing, I'm afraid that the Imperial Research Institute would soon be watching it and seize and study it in slices.
"Do you know what is most dangerous in the interference zone?" Catri did not answer, but asked instead.
"You mean Xingyuan?" Wei He was stunned. For some reason, when he mentioned Xingyuan, his heart skipped a beat inexplicably.
It was the martial arts realm that was agitating, as if it was reminding him of something.
"That's right, so the captain asked everyone to get together to discuss countermeasures and assign tasks."
