Chapter 231 A Change of Face! The Supreme Invitation!
"Are you sure it's a Blood Clan True Ancestor?"
On Planet Zero, there was actually another Blood Clan True Ancestor?
Just learning this truth sent a chill down the spines of White Bear King and the others.
Is the company headquarters a sieve?
To actually allow two Blood Clan True Ancestors to infiltrate!
Lu Jin, on the other hand, spread his hands: "Do you think an ordinary Blood Clan member could ambush and kill a Blood Clan True Ancestor?"
Kones across from him fixed his gaze on Lu Jin, his brows slightly furrowed.
Lu Jin's aura was undisturbed; he was speaking the truth!
On Planet Zero, two Blood Clan True Ancestors had indeed arrived!
"Damn it! Is the company stupid?"
"Two Blood Clan True Ancestors? Two Ninth-Level Psionicists?"
"Fight my ass! I need to get out of this hellhole right now!"
"What Star Sea Community of Shared Destiny? This is simply a scheme to rob and murder."
Upon learning of the two Blood Clan True Ancestors' appearance, even White Bear King's expression turned grim.
One Blood Clan True Ancestor had nearly taken his life; what about two Blood Clan True Ancestors?
Just then, Jeffebu arrived with a contingent of the Anti-Terror Mobile Squad.
Seeing everyone gathered together, Jeffebu breathed a sigh of relief.
But before he could speak, the representatives of the various factions were already seething with anger.
"I want to withdraw from the Star Sea Community of Shared Destiny. You can't even guarantee the safety of your own planet, so how can you guarantee ours?"
"Heh heh, I think this so-called Star Sea Community of Shared Destiny is a joke!"
"Today, my Ailuo Empire declares its secession from the Star Sea Community of Shared Destiny. I'm leaving here today, and no one can stop me!"
"Director Jeffebu, I hope you can give us a reasonable explanation."
"Now, two Blood Clan True Ancestors, two Ninth-Level Psionicists, have appeared at the company headquarters. We have reason to doubt the company's strength."
Facing everyone's accusations, Jeffebu naturally had an immense headache.
It was clear that the current situation was beyond their ability to resolve.
If the subsequent handling was not appropriate, it was very likely to lead to the dissolution of the Star Sea Community of Shared Destiny.
He never expected that this seemingly lucrative meeting would bring so much trouble to Star Sea Infinite Company.
Thinking of this, Jeffebu finally decided to use the company's most common method to resolve this dispute.
"I apologize, this incident was difficult for even us to foresee."
"If you are willing to accept the company's compensation, that would be for the best."
"Our cooperation is for the common development of the entire Star Sea, and we did not wish to see such a thing happen."
Compensation?
Everyone couldn't help but chuckle. As expected, the company's handling method was still so simple and crude.
One Psionicist directly stood out and retorted without politeness.
"Is this the company's attitude? We almost lost our lives!"
"And you haven't completely resolved the Blood Clan's hidden danger yet, have you? Can such an organization truly hold the second seat?"
"Don't think that just because you have a bit of money, you can solve everything. Some things cannot be solved by money alone."
"I'm stating it here today: I will absolutely not accept a single cent of compensation from your company."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's accounts received a message.
When everyone saw the huge amount of credit points in their accounts, they were stunned at first.
Then, the people who had been so angry just a moment ago seemed to have changed into different people.
"Ahem, I'll step forward and say something fair. The one who attacked us this time was a Blood Clan True Ancestor, a genuine Ninth-Level Psionicist."
"How strong a Ninth-Level Psionicist is, I believe everyone here is very clear."
"The company has done its best this time; at least none of you were injured, right?"
"I think it can indeed be forgiven, after all, it was an attack by a Ninth-Level Psionicist."
Lu Jin glanced at the additional credit points in his account.
He could only say that it was indeed the company, using the simplest and most crude method to solve this problem.
Of course, this method might be useful for ordinary people, but for someone like Lu Jin, one of the thirteen seats, it seemed a bit ridiculous.
But Lu Jin and the others did not choose to react, because some people had already reached their limit.
White Bear King directly stood out, looking at Jeffebu without any mercy.
"Don't think that we, the people of your company, are so easy to appease!"
"I will report this matter to the Northern Emperor exactly as it happened!"
"I hope that by then, you will be able to make the Northern Emperor trust you again!"
With that, White Bear King walked straight out of the Hall of Destiny.
Planet Zero was now full of crises, and he did not want to stay in this dangerous place for too long.
The company owed the thirteen seats an explanation. Lu Jin received a lot of funds, so naturally, there was no need for him to speak.
What he wanted to say had already been said by White Bear King.
Next, he just needed to wait.
Just as Lu Jin was also preparing to leave, Kones walked over.
"Brother Lu Jin, please wait a moment."
"Is there something, Elder Kones?"
Kones coming to find him was also something Lu Jin had not expected. Was it because of the psionic gene seed in his body?
Kones then took out a token. This token was made from special materials from the Yin Yang Abyss Star.
"This token is an identity token I'm giving to you."
"The psionic gene seed in your body has infinite potential, but you don't seem to know how to develop it."
"Come to Yin Yang Abyss Star when you have time. Perhaps the Supreme will be very happy to see you and guide you."
With that, Kones left.
Lu Jin looked at the token in his hand, and after a moment of thought, he put it away.
After seeing Qin Mowu, Lu Jin hadn't expected her to become this way.
However, one thing was certain: Qin Mowu was now a genuine Ninth-Level Psionicist.
Lu Jin witnessed the power of a Ninth-Level Psionicist today—the blood mist covering the entire planet, and spatial abilities.
In the future, he might encounter other Ninth-Level Psionicists. Would he be as lucky then as he was today?
Perhaps it was time for him to consider and study his own psionic power.
When Old Fifth Huang saw Lu Jin put away the token, he proactively reminded Lu Jin.
"Although the Yin Yang Abyss Star has complex factions, the Supreme will not deceive you."
"Go there when you have time. Rumor has it that the Supreme has a close relationship with the Divine Emperor."
"If you have the identity of a Living Saint, you might receive many benefits when you go there to cultivate your psionic power."
Before Old Fifth Huang could finish speaking, the Stellar Dwarf Steel Fire arrived beside Lu Jin.
From just now until now, Steel Fire seemed to have been placed under a silencing spell, not having said another word.
Because Steel Fire knew very well that he was currently carrying a secret.
If this secret were to be rashly exposed, let alone himself, Planet Zero would probably fall into chaos again.
+++
Chapter 232 Secret Alliance! New Company Executives!
It was only when Steel Fire followed Lu Jin back into the room that he finally let out a sigh of relief.
At this moment, he had countless questions in his heart, the most important of which was: that Blood Clan True Ancestor actually knew Lu Jin?
Why did Lu Jin know the Blood Clan True Ancestor?
And judging by their conversation, the relationship between this Blood Clan True Ancestor and Lu Jin was not simple?
When Lu Jin returned to the room, Cui Yuxin and the others immediately gathered around him.
They were about to ask something, but when they saw Steel Fire next to Lu Jin, they immediately held their tongues.
Steel Fire scratched his head awkwardly until he saw his struggling companions nearby.
Although the blood mist had disappeared, these Stellar Dwarfs, who had been converted into Vampire Vassals, had not returned to their original forms.
On the contrary, although they had their own consciousness, they were still Blood Clan.
"Boss Steel Fire!"
The bound Stellar Dwarfs were no longer as agitated as before.
Although they were restrained, their emotions had become very stable.
Steel Fire looked at his companions, who had been converted into Vampire Vassals, and couldn't help but ask Lu Jin.
"Brother Lu Jin, do you have a way to restore my companions to their original state?"
Lu Jin glanced at the several Stellar Dwarfs and couldn't help but think.
It seemed that Qin Mowu was converted into a Blood Clan by the blood mist while she was in the Brilliant Galaxy.
But since Qin Mowu hadn't found a solution yet, these Stellar Dwarfs were even less likely to.
"Galas is dead. Although they are Blood Clan, they also have their own consciousness."
"If you can accept them, they can still live as Stellar Dwarfs."
"But if you can't accept them, then you deal with it yourself."
Upon hearing these words, the several Stellar Dwarfs who had been converted into Blood Clan seemed to accept their fate.
Now, unless Qin Mowu truly destroyed the blood pool and freed all Stellar Dwarfs,
it was probably impossible for the Stellar Dwarfs to return to their original state.
And after getting the answer, Steel Fire also sighed as if resigned to his fate.
"I will take them back."
After all, they had become like this because of him.
Steel Fire was not a heartless person.
At this moment, Old Fifth Huang voluntarily stepped forward.
"Now, everyone present is not an outsider. Why don't we discuss the next issue?"
Regarding the next issue, everyone looked at Old Fifth Huang.
What other problems needed to be solved now?
Old Fifth Huang looked at the Stellar Dwarf Steel Fire, a slight smile playing on his lips.
"Brother Steel Fire, are you interested in joining our Cosmic Alliance?"
Join the Cosmic Alliance?
As soon as these words were spoken, Lu Jin immediately understood Old Fifth Huang's intention.
He was planning to poach an ally from the company!
And the Stellar Dwarf Steel Fire frowned upon hearing this.
If it were before the Star Sea Community of Shared Destiny's thirteen seats were established, Steel Fire might have considered it.
But now, he was one of the thirteen seats.
Even if Steel Fire agreed, the other members might not agree.
But Steel Fire also considered the potential behind Lu Jin, the pure psionic energy that even the Psionic Supreme was interested in.
And he was even connected to a Blood Clan True Ancestor!
Steel Fire glanced at his compatriots who had been converted into Blood Clan.
After a moment of hesitation, Steel Fire looked at Lu Jin and said in a deep voice, "Brother Lu Jin, you should know that even if I agree, the others may not agree."
Once Steel Fire represented the Vulcan Furnace Alliance in joining the Cosmic Alliance,
the nature of things would be different!
The Cosmic Alliance, composed of the Vulcan Furnace Alliance, Holy Terra, Atlantis, and the Gem Family, would instantly become one of the most powerful forces in the Star Sea.
"So, we will form a secret alliance."
Old Fifth Huang seemed to have been prepared for this, and his gaze turned to Lu Jin.
Seeing that Lu Jin did not speak, Old Fifth Huang threw out a condition that was particularly tempting to the Stellar Dwarfs.
"Do you know about the Sun Dynasty?"
The Sun Dynasty?
The Stellar Dwarfs frowned. As craftsmen, how could they not know about the Sun Dynasty?
The rumored ark ships of the Sun Dynasty were said to be a miraculous existence in the history of shipbuilding.
At this moment, Lu Jin immediately understood.
"Currently, in my territory, there are still some survivors of the Sun Dynasty."
"Not only that, I also possess a civilization's spark ship from the Sun Dynasty."
"If you are willing to join the Cosmic Alliance, I can arrange for both sides to communicate."
As soon as these words were spoken, Steel Fire immediately became excited.
That was a miracle in shipbuilding history, the engineers of the Sun Dynasty.
However, Steel Fire did not immediately agree. He considered the pros and cons.
Now that he knew Lu Jin's secret, exposing it would inevitably have a certain impact on Lu Jin.
But was that really the outcome he wanted?
If he accepted the secret alliance, what he would gain would be far more than what he would get from exposing Lu Jin.
Especially the Sun Dynasty's ships, for a Stellar Dwarf like him, full of craftsmanship, the temptation was self-evident.
Finally, Steel Fire gave his answer.
"Good! I agree!"
Meanwhile, the company naturally did not know that Steel Fire had already been recruited into the Cosmic Alliance.
At this moment, the company was still in extreme chaos. Although the blood mist had disappeared, the Blood Servants would not.
Creatures bitten by Blood Servants would also be converted into Blood Clan.
Although the company quickly slaughtered a large number of Blood Servants and suppressed a considerable portion of Vampire Vassals,
this did not mean that the influence of the blood mist had completely disappeared.
"This crisis has caused nearly ten billion in losses to the company, but of course, these are secondary."
"The most important thing is credit. Our company's credit in the eyes of other forces has greatly decreased."
"If we cannot restore our credit, our company's influence in the Star Sea will diminish."
Influence, for the company, was something that was hard to buy even with money.
Jeffebu sat in his office, looking at the projections in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh deeply.
He was also aware of it, but this Blood Clan attack was too fierce, even they could not have predicted it.
And according to intelligence, a Blood Clan True Ancestor might still be lurking on Planet Zero.
If this Blood Clan launched another attack, it would be adding insult to injury for the company.
Just then, one of the projections spoke again.
"Also, Polaris has still not sent any news. I suspect there might be some problems on her side."
"Arrange for another company executive to take a fleet to Bliss Star."
"Lu Jin is now a member of our Star Sea Community of Shared Destiny's thirteen seats. If something goes wrong with Bliss Star..."
At this point, everyone understood the importance of this matter.
The current Cosmic Alliance was not a small organization that could be easily manipulated.
+++
Chapter 233 Escort! Return to Elysium!
Soon, the company's compensation packages arrived in everyone's hands.
As a member of the thirteen seats, Lu Jin's compensation naturally involved the company's investment plan.
To offset the losses from this unexpected incident, the company gifted the investment contract to Lu Jin free of charge.
This meant that the company's previous investment in Lu Jin was completely written off.
Lu Jin looked at the contract in his hand and chuckled softly.
Anyone else would probably be immensely grateful for the company's compensation.
But Lu Jin knew very well that the company handing the investment contract to him now was merely a gesture of goodwill.
At Lu Jin's current growth rate, it would take him less than a year to repay all his investment debts.
In fact, the current Lu Jin only needed to make a call, and many people would be willing to repay his investment debts.
So, rather than letting others take credit for this favor, it was better to facilitate it himself.
This was the company's solution!
Lu Jin waved his hand, directly terminating the investment contract before him.
He didn't care about the company's compensation; he had already obtained everything he was supposed to.
This trip to the company headquarters not only gained him many allies but also provided a lot of useful intelligence.
It could be said that the gains from this operation far exceeded Lu Jin's expectations.
Next, Lu Jin's first priority was to return to the Star of Bliss.
By his calculations, the Orcs should have arrived by now.
After dealing with the two troubles of the Orcs and the Subspace Demons, he could then proceed to purge the traitors within the Solar Alliance.
Once the traitors were eliminated, he could attempt to incorporate the Solar Alliance into his Cosmic Alliance.
It should be noted that while the overall strength of the Solar Alliance was not very strong,
there were several Planet Lord among them who possessed origin warships similar to Lu Jin's.
With a little cultivation, they could become a decent fighting force.
Of course, if they were also subverted, Lu Jin would be even happier.
Currently, his prometheus could only significantly accelerate its upgrade progress by devouring origin warships of the same type.
After planning everything, Lu Jin packed his luggage, preparing to head to the Starport.
And when Lu Jin stepped out of his room, a charming woman with an imposing figure was already waiting at the door.
Upon seeing Lu Jin appear, the charming woman immediately stepped forward and introduced herself.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Lu Jin."
"I am Zhu Yushuang, a company executive, and like you, I am from Blue Star."
"Due to Polaris's disappearance, the board of directors has specifically assigned me to take over Polaris's escort duties."
Polaris's disappearance?
Lu Jin's brows furrowed slightly upon hearing this news.
As a company executive, Polaris should have been obligated to report her current work progress to the company every seven days.
But Polaris had gone missing repeatedly, which made Lu Jin think of one of his predicted outcomes.
Thinking of this outcome, Lu Jin couldn't help but chuckle softly.
His precautions had indeed been well-placed.
Seeing Lu Jin's displeased expression, Zhu Yushuang immediately stepped closer to him.
It must be said that as a company executive, Zhu Yushuang possessed an insight that few could match.
Just as she was about to approach, Zhu Yushuang keenly noticed Yin Yue's movement beside Lu Jin, and immediately stopped her actions.
"Please rest assured, Mr. Lu Jin, although my fleet is not as massive as the Gilded Fleet,"
"all my fleet's crew members are battle-hardened mercenaries, and their combat power is no less than that of the Gilded Fleet."
"And as your escort target, I will absolutely guarantee your safety."
Seeing Zhu Yushuang's sincerity, Lu Jin merely glanced at her, nodded, and said nothing more.
Watching Lu Jin walk ahead without refusing her, Zhu Yushuang also breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Lu Jin hadn't refused her. Zhu Yushuang knew very well that this young man was currently the most promising candidate.
If she could serve him well, she might even get a chance for a promotion and a raise.
Zhu Yushuang took a deep breath, silently cheering herself on.
"You can do it! One day, you will definitely get a promotion, become a director, and be one of the top successful and beautiful women in the entire Star Sea!"
After cheering herself up, Zhu Yushuang quickened her pace, catching up with Lu Jin.
Arriving at the Starport entrance, it was time for everyone to part ways.
The Starport was vast, and each person's fleet was docked in different areas of the Starport.
But before leaving, Old Fifth Huang scanned the surroundings of the Starport and said somewhat nonchalantly,
"After this disaster, the company's Starport security has dropped quite a bit."
"Indeed, there are a lot more sneaky people around."
Mermaid Eve also noticed something amiss; many unfamiliar faces had appeared throughout the Starport.
As a Psionicist, Eve's memory far surpassed that of ordinary people, and these unfamiliar faces were not the enthusiastic engineers from before.
As the company representative, Zhu Yushuang's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly stepped forward to smooth things over.
"These people should be paparazzi. After all, the Star Sea Community of Shared Destiny has just been established, and such a big incident has occurred."
"It's inevitable that some people will want to use this opportunity to gain fame and capture scandals of our company."
"Everyone, don't worry, I will contact the security team to drive them away right now."
But before Zhu Yushuang could speak, Lu Jin beside her spoke first.
"Since they are just reporters, there's no need to waste manpower."
"We are leaving soon, and these people won't affect us."
Hearing Lu Jin say this, Zhu Yushuang breathed a sigh of relief.
And Eve and Old Fifth Huang, upon hearing Lu Jin's words, immediately understood his underlying meaning.
Since Lu Jin had no intention of holding these "suspicious individuals" accountable, he must have a plan in mind.
"Then let's get ready to go."
After some pleasantries, everyone departed for different areas.
Seeing Lu Jin leave, the suspicious individuals also began to move.
After seeing Lu Jin officially enter the ship, the suspicious individuals quickly picked up their communication devices.
"The target has entered the ship and is about to leave the Starport. How are things on your end?"
"Don't worry! This plan is flawless; no one can possibly discover it!"
"The company can't even take care of itself right now; how could they investigate us?"
"That's good. This plan must succeed; it cannot fail. The Cosmic Alliance poses too great a threat to us."
Meanwhile, Lu Jin, who had boarded the ship, entered the bridge and immediately sat down in his seat.
Leaning back in the chair, Yu Tiancang beside him couldn't help but ask a few questions.
"I didn't expect such a major accident to occur at this meeting held on Planet Zero."
"It seems the Star Sea Infinite Company's strength isn't all that great."
Hearing these words, Lu Jin couldn't help but smile faintly.
+++
Chapter 234 Tracking! The Nameless Fleet!
Is the Company weak?
How could a company capable of establishing a credit points system be weak?
To achieve such a feat in front of the Blood Clan led by the Ninth-Level Psionicist, Galas, already proves the Company's strength.
If it weren't for the Company tying up most of Galas's energy in the larger scheme of things...
Even if all of them went, they might not be able to deal with Galas.
This time, it was purely because Qin Mowu had already targeted Galas; they were merely an interlude in the conflict between two Blood Clan factions.
"Let's go, back to Bliss Star."
Lu Jin looked at the Starport outside. The people in the Starport were probably preparing to act as well.
Clearly, their target was him.
What for?
For his identity as the sixth seat?
Or for his origin warship?
If it was the former, the one preparing to make a move on him this time was very likely one of the thirteen seats.
If it was the latter, then it could basically be confirmed to be the Origin Alliance.
An origin warship that has developed into a large vessel—what difference is there between its allure to the people of the Origin Alliance and that of a ginseng fruit?
Of course, since Lu Jin dared to leave the Starport in front of them, it meant he already had a countermeasure.
As the vessel ascended, Mermaid Eve's holographic projection appeared on the bridge with the connection of the signal.
"Lu Jin, we have quite a few small tails behind our fleet."
"What do you mean? Are you going to cast a long line to catch a big fish?"
On the radar display, many small spacecraft could be seen openly following behind the Howling Shark Pirate Group's fleet.
They were like flies, impossible to shake off.
And now, they were about to leave the Starport area and enter the warp zone.
As soon as Lu Jin gave the order, Eve could unhesitatingly destroy all these spacecraft to prevent future trouble.
But Lu Jin smiled faintly and directly arranged the next course of action.
"Are you sure you want to do this?"
"Of course."
"Then we'll wait for you ahead!"
Turning off the communication signal, the Howling Shark Pirate Group decisively initiated warp.
Accompanied by several streaks of light, all of the Howling Shark Pirate Group's vessels vanished from their original positions.
Inside the spacecraft following behind the fleet, several alien pilots, seeing the Howling Shark Pirate Group depart, also decisively activated their warp engines, preparing to follow directly.
But just as they were about to accelerate, they discovered that Lu Jin's prometheus was still at its original location.
"Wait, don't warp yet! The target is still there!"
"What? That guy didn't leave with the Howling Shark Pirate Group?"
"I confirm, the target has not warped yet and is still in its original position."
"This guy, could it be that he has already discovered we are tracking him?"
"Since we've been discovered, why not just make a move?"
"Wait a moment, I'll ask the higher-ups first!"
But just as they sent out the message, Lu Jin decisively maneuvered his vessel to initiate warp.
Seeing Lu Jin's vessel warp and disappear from its original location, the many trackers were first stunned, then no longer concealed themselves, and followed directly.
After warping, Lu Jin's vessel arrived in an unfamiliar star system.
The trackers also appeared in this star system. Lu Jin glanced at the trackers, a slight smile playing on his lips.
"Continue to warp!"
After only a brief stop, the vessel once again disappeared from its original location.
The trackers, looking at the vanished vessel, clearly sensed that the other party was baiting them like fishing.
But thinking of their mission, the trackers immediately pursued.
"Damn it! This guy definitely found us!"
"Should we continue to pursue? Since he has discovered our traces, he must be on guard."
"Of course we continue to pursue. Our mission is to follow him. Whether or not to act next is not our concern."
"That's right! Keep chasing. Even if there's a trap, it's not for us to step into."
The trackers pursued again!
And just as Lu Jin warped through three star systems, he suddenly discovered an unknown fleet appearing abruptly.
The vessels in this fleet were of extremely mixed types.
As for the coatings on the hulls representing their respective factions, they had been artificially covered up.
Seeing this, Lu Jin couldn't help but let out a soft chuckle.
These guys really couldn't hold back; they were already preparing to make a move?
And they even specifically covered up the vessel's paint, so this plan must have taken a considerable amount of time to prepare.
The unknown vessels opposite, upon seeing Lu Jin's vessel, did not hesitate in the slightest.
Several electromagnetic interference missiles landed directly around Lu Jin's vessel.
Under the influence of the electromagnetic interference missiles, Lu Jin's warp engine quickly lost its original function, and even the vessel's speed slowed down.
The vessel was quickly captured. Yu Tiancang, on the bridge, was originally a bit anxious.
But seeing Lu Jin's expression, he knew that this time, it was still a false alarm.
And just as the vessel was captured, a large number of warp reactions immediately appeared around them.
Zhu Yushuang's fleet quickly appeared around the unknown fleet, surrounding it.
Seeing Lu Jin's vessel captured, Zhu Yushuang quickly became nervous.
"Fire!"
At this point, if they didn't open fire, Lu Jin might be in mortal danger.
Lu Jin was now Zhu Yushuang's escort target, and no damage could be allowed.
But this unknown fleet, upon seeing the Company's escort fleet, seemed to have been prepared.
The fleet immediately launched a counterattack, and its firepower was even more formidable compared to the Company's escort fleet.
After only a brief engagement, Zhu Yushuang realized that the unknown fleet before her was definitely not as simple as an ordinary fleet.
The quality of the vessels was far beyond what ordinary factions could possess.
And just then, a large number of warp signatures appeared again; the Howling Shark Pirate Group, which had supposedly left, had actually returned.
Looking at the chaotic battlefield, Eve was also somewhat surprised.
She had originally thought that the Company's escort fleet could completely deal with these ill-intentioned trackers.
But she didn't expect the trackers' strength to be so formidable!
"Don't be afraid, I'm here to help you too!"
The appearance of the Howling Shark Pirate Group also made the unknown fleet on the other side feel immense pressure.
Among the many vessels, communication signals were transmitted back and forth.
"Damn it! This is indeed a trap; the Howling Shark Pirate Group is here too!"
"It's okay! We have successfully captured Lu Jin's vessel, and the fleet can hold out for a while longer."
"Take advantage of this moment, quickly board his vessel and remove the origin core!"
"You all hold on for a while; we'll be able to seize the origin core soon!"
Before the words finished, a large number of shuttles appeared around the fleet.
They headed straight towards Lu Jin.
Lu Jin, as if unaware of their existence, directly allowed these shuttles to conduct boarding actions.
In just a moment, several shuttles broke through the vessel's defenses and entered the internal space of the vessel.
+++
Chapter 235 Trap! Keep fighting!
"We're in?"
After the shuttle successfully boarded, the personnel inside hesitantly emerged from the cabin.
They looked around, confirming they had entered the ship's interior, momentarily disbelieving.
The legendary Lu Jin's warship was a genuine large-scale origin warship.
Such a powerful vessel, and they had entered it so easily.
"Captain, why do I feel like something's not right?"
"Exactly, we got in too easily!"
"Getting in easily isn't right? Do you want to be shot to death for it to be right?"
"This is Lu Jin's flagship. We didn't even hit the ship's shields on the way in."
The moment that sentence was uttered, everyone finally realized.
When they piloted the shuttle to board, it seemed they hadn't encountered any resistance.
Not only were there no turrets to intercept them, but there wasn't even a shield system deployed.
Was Lu Jin a fool?
But clearly, he was not!
After several shuttles successfully boarded, under everyone's gaze, Lu Jin's ship directly vanished from its original position.
This sudden change shocked everyone else.
They never expected that Lu Jin's ship could still disappear under such circumstances.
"Where's Lu Jin's ship? Did it warp away?"
"Impossible! Our signal jamming device is still here!"
"Then where could his ship have gone? Did it just disappear?"
"Wait, it's appeared on the radar again, Lu Jin's ship signal."
Lu Jin's ship reappeared, now in the distance.
Seeing the ship suddenly appear and then disappear, everyone immediately realized.
This must be one of the origin warship's mystical abilities!
Inside the bridge of an origin warship within the unknown fleet, a captain watched the prometheus suddenly disappear and reappear, immediately opening his personal terminal.
After a search, he immediately found information about the origin warship.
"It's a spatial engine. Lu Jin's origin warship actually evolved a spatial engine?"
"As expected, a high-quality prey that the Alliance Leader has set his sights on. The spatial engine's ability is a good thing!"
"However, this time it might be difficult to succeed!"
With the arrival of the Howling Shark Pirate Group, the entire fleet began to fall into a disadvantage.
Meanwhile, Lu Jin, after disengaging from the battlefield, immediately activated the ship's shields.
The enemies who had boarded the ship were captured shortly after landing.
"Reporting, Captain! All infiltrating enemies have been captured!"
Lu Jin glanced at the captured soldiers.
All of them had Blue Star Human faces.
It seemed the organization targeting him was becoming clear.
Among all the large organizations, the only Blue Star Human force capable of fielding such a large-scale fleet was the Solar Alliance.
The only thing left to figure out was whether this attack was directed by the Solar Alliance, or if it was an independent action by a rogue faction within the Solar Alliance.
This was very important to Lu Jin!
But the soldiers opposite clearly had no intention of speaking directly.
"I won't tell you anything. Just kill me!"
Facing such a resolute answer, Lu Jin merely turned around and opened a communication channel.
"I'm all done here. You can come out now."
Hearing this, the human soldiers' expressions changed.
Come out?
Who should come out?
Did Lu Jin have an ambush?
Just then, the ship radar within the battlefield once again showed numerous warp signatures.
A massive warship appeared in everyone's sight.
Immediately after, a second, then a third... a much larger fleet appeared at the edge of the battlefield.
Based on the ships' livery, their identity was quickly discerned: the Holy Terra fleet!
At this point, all three fleets had appeared on the battlefield, surrounding the unknown fleet.
Inside the unknown fleet, the captains of several ships, seeing the unfavorable battle situation, immediately turned their ships around, preparing to escape.
But how could Lu Jin not know their intentions? His gaze swept across the radar.
Upon discovering another ship attempting to flee the battlefield, Lu Jin decisively activated the targeting system and locked onto it.
Fire!
The Stellar Elegy main cannon quickly finished charging!
Before the enemy could react, the laser, like a long spear, directly pierced through the ship's hull.
The ship, pierced through, exploded on the spot!
The personnel inside the bridges of the other few ships hidden within the unknown fleet, seeing this scene, couldn't help but grit their teeth.
"Damn it! This guy set a trap from the beginning, waiting for us to jump in!"
"What's the use of saying that now? Hurry up and figure out how to escape!"
"I told you long ago, the current Lu Jin is not a solitary force."
"Heh heh, you were the one who shouted the loudest when you wanted us to stall for time."
"Who knew the Holy Terra fleet would also get involved."
If it were two fleets, they might have been confident in holding out for a while.
But the addition of the Holy Terra fleet rapidly tipped the scales of victory.
And in the Cosmic Alliance's communication channel, Old Fifth Huang directly sent the enemy's ship models into the channel.
"Just now, my flagship has scanned them. Most of the enemy's ship models match those of the Solar Alliance."
"So, this operation is the Solar Alliance targeting us?"
"Not necessarily. There are still many capable individuals within the Solar Alliance; they wouldn't do something so foolish."
"Perhaps it was done by others within their own ranks."
Through the ship models, Eve and Zhu Yushuang could also vaguely discern the identity of this unknown fleet.
But for now, they both chose to pretend not to know.
Because the mission Lu Jin had given them was to annihilate as many ships as possible in this star system.
Turning off the communication channel, the three fleets immediately began their encirclement.
The encircled unknown fleet gradually began to collapse, the encirclement growing smaller, and the ships fewer.
Several ships inside tried to escape, but whenever they made a move, the ship would be quickly locked onto by Lu Jin's flagship.
Just then, Lu Jin's communication channel received an unknown signal.
Lu Jin looked at the unknown signal, thought for a moment, then chose to connect.
When Lu Jin connected to the other party's signal, a holographic projection appeared before him.
"Respected Alliance Leader of the Cosmic Alliance, Your Excellency Lu Jin."
"I believe there might be a misunderstanding between us. Could we perhaps declare a ceasefire first?"
Before he finished speaking, Lu Jin directly chose to hang up.
The face of the captain on the other end, who had been hung up on, immediately turned grim.
At this point, he still wanted to beg for mercy?
What a joke!
