Seeing the mocking expressions on the faces of those around him, the young cadre remained silent.

However, he believed in his heart that his guess was not entirely impossible.

After all, how could a general who could launch a counterattack and devour a civilization's native universe not dare to make plans to launch another surprise attack?

...

At this very moment, in a remote airspace far from this military manufacturing base.

Three stealth interstellar reconnaissance ships are hiding here.

They were secretly monitoring everything that was happening here.

"Let's confirm the information one last time."

Target number seventeen, currently garrisoned by 100,000 interstellar warships.

There is a stargate and a starport within the galaxy. If the stargate is not destroyed in time, the enemy's emergency response plan will send a large number of interstellar legion fleets to support the mission within a short period of time.

If we can destroy the stargate here in time, the enemy will only be able to support this place by warp drive or special delivery methods.

For the latter, we cannot calculate the time.

However, the former refers to the interstellar legion fleet stationed within a certain radius of the surrounding star systems.

"Within five hours of the enemy discovering us, up to two million interstellar warships will swarm here." The secretary read aloud the recorded intelligence information and looked at the captain.

The captain nodded: "Confirmed. Transmit this intelligence information to the squadron."

"Yes." The secretary immediately transmitted the information back via an encrypted channel.

In an instant, this intelligence was transmitted to the outer edge of the galaxy.

Thirty stealth interstellar reconnaissance ships are hidden here.

These stealthy interstellar reconnaissance ships formed a matrix, as if preparing for something.

"Report, each squad has sent back their final intelligence report, which is basically the same as the previous intelligence," the secretary reported to the reconnaissance squadron commander.

"Very good, it's almost time."

Let's get started on our plan.

Prepare to start the instrument; high-frequency fluctuations will be released in three minutes!

At the same time, orders were given to all reconnaissance teams to shorten the interval between intelligence transmissions from ten minutes to one minute. If urgent intelligence was discovered, it could be transmitted directly without regard to time constraints.

"yes."

With a command from the reconnaissance squadron commander.

On the thirty interstellar stealth reconnaissance ships surrounding this location, some kind of equipment was activated.

These devices form a kind of link in this airspace, eventually generating some kind of invisible high-frequency fluctuation.

If viewed on certain devices, one might see a 'dawn' suddenly appear in what was originally a completely dark space.

The appearance of this glimmer of hope will soon be detected by monitoring stations across the universe that are devouring civilizations.

Because the fluctuations are so huge, it's impossible to go undetected.

Moreover, this wasn't just one or two, but dozens.

In that instant, the checkpoint that devoured the civilization universe was like a lake that had been suddenly hit by hundreds of stones; the ripples were incredibly violent.

"Warning! Warning! Multiple high-frequency spatial fluctuations detected!"

Staff at a major monitoring site discovered this anomaly.

He immediately contacted his immediate supervisor.

"What's the matter? Why are you contacting me in such a hurry?" An impatient voice came through, and in the background, one could hear a woman's teasing laughter.

"My lord, something terrible has happened! A major incident has occurred."

"Our site has detected a large number of high-frequency spatial anomalies!" The staff member reported while conducting various checks, his forehead covered in sweat.

"High-frequency spatial fluctuations have occurred before."

Our universe's cosmic barrier is inherently fragile due to the numerous inter-cosmic invasions it has launched in the past.

Even the slightest fluctuation could have an impact on us.

"What's the big deal?" the boss said, seemingly used to it.

But the staff member swallowed hard and said nervously, "Sir, this time is different from the past."

This time... this time, as many as thirty locations with abnormal fluctuations have been detected.

Furthermore, the time interval between the occurrences of these abnormal fluctuations does not exceed five seconds.

It was... as if it were pre-arranged.

The music on the boss's end stopped, and his voice, which had been lazy, turned serious: "Are you sure?"

Investigate the coordinates of these thirty locations with abnormal spatial fluctuations. Could they be locations with abnormal fluctuations that have occurred before, indicating a similar situation of spatial collapse?

However... more than thirty appearing one after the other at once, that has never happened before..."

The boss's words hadn't even finished yet.

The staff member exclaimed in terror, "Sir...no...something terrible has happened!"

I just carefully checked the coordinates of these thirty locations to see if there were any related features.

Then I... discovered... that the coordinates of these thirty abnormal spatial fluctuations corresponded precisely to the top fifty high-value strategic locations of our Devouring Civilization!

Upon hearing this news, a terrified voice came from the boss's side.

"What? Are you sure?!"

"I can confirm that I can send you the relevant star chart markers right now."

"Send me a copy right now."

I'm heading back to the station right now.

"Also...you immediately issue the highest level of alert!" The superior swallowed hard and immediately gave the order.

There is only one possibility for this to happen: an enemy is launching a surprise attack on the Devouring Civilization, and the targets of the attack are all important strategic locations of the Devouring Civilization.

If the enemy achieves this objective, it will definitely cause the Devouring Civilization to suffer a great loss.

The thought that someone might attempt to attack and devour civilization is unbearable.

Deep down, I felt it was unbelievable; I simply couldn't believe it.

But now all these clues and information are laid out before us, even the possibility we least want to believe.

Then we have no choice but to believe and sound the alarm.

Otherwise, if it is discovered afterward that they knew the situation but failed to issue an alert, it would be a dereliction of duty, and the entire site would be tried by a military court.

Other monitoring stations followed suit, and alarms sounded in turn.

With so many alerts from monitoring stations received in a short period of time, someone naturally reported them to the Three Kings immediately.

After all, such a large number of alarms is rare since the establishment of the Devouring Civilization.

After all, they've always been the ones attacking and invading others; it's never their turn to retaliate.

The troll king looked at his kneeling subordinate: "What? You're saying that all the surveillance stations within our territory have issued alarms!"

"Yes!

"The first checkpoint to issue an alarm was a minute and a half ago, and the most recent one was ten seconds ago!" the subordinate reported nervously.

The troll king frowned.

This sudden turn of events was completely unexpected for him.

All these circumstances point to the worst possible outcome, which undoubtedly boils down to one thing: someone is launching an invasion against the Devouring Civilization!

Those unusual spatial locations are all enemy bridgeheads!

Who would dare to launch an attack on the universe that devours civilizations at this time?

Although I was extremely unwilling to admit it.

But at this moment, in the mind of the troll king, only one faction dared to do such a thing.

That is the Dragon Star Empire!

"Madman, that guy is a complete madman," the troll king cursed, but he dared not let his guard down in the slightest.

He immediately stood up and commanded, "Pass on my orders."

Our entire territory is immediately placed under Level 1 war status.

He also informed the other two kings of the situation.

Order the legion fleet closest to these abnormal spatial fluctuations to dispatch at least one legion fleet immediately to the target location to assess the actual situation!

We must urgently dispatch the interstellar legion fleet to these strategic locations that may be under attack, and ensure their safety no matter what happens!

These strategic locations must not be lost under any circumstances.

The troll king paused, as if he had thought of something, and then added, "If the defensive pressure is too great..."

Prioritize the defense of higher-priority strategic locations!

"yes!"

The subordinates relayed these orders.

The troll king stared solemnly at the interstellar map before him, which depicted a universe devouring civilizations. At that moment, more than thirty locations on the map were flashing with light.

If these thirty cursor locations all represent targets that the Xiaolong Interstellar Empire wants to attack.

That was truly shocking and unbelievable.

It's worth noting that when they first attacked the Xiaolong Interstellar Empire, they only dared to open five battlefields in the first phase before increasing it to seven.

If the Xiaolong Interstellar Empire truly intends to launch thirty battlefields at once when it attacks and devours the civilized universe, then...

what does that mean?

Opening up a battlefield is not as simple as just sending a legion fleet to fight.

In a battle, each additional local battlefield significantly increases the difficulty of battlefield command for the attacking side.

Moreover, this is an inter-universe operation.

If that Dragon Emperor wasn't insane, he would never have allowed such an attack to happen.

Immediately, a crazed expression appeared on the Troll King's face: "Emperor of the Wraiths, if you really dare to do such a thing..."

Then I should thank you.

Thank you for giving me the chance to redeem myself so quickly.

I will treat you and your legion fleet well.

"You and your entire fleet will absolutely not return!"

The defeats in previous battles had always cast a shadow over the heart of this troll king.

He constantly yearns to launch another attack on the Dragon Star Empire.

However, it was only because the other two monarchs used the excuse of being cautious in their preparations that the matter has been delayed until now.

It truly made him lose his appetite and sleep.

Now, when I'm sleepy, they just bring a pillow right to my face.

How could the troll king not be happy!
