Chapter 290: Chapter 55: Tang Yunxuan: The Supreme Lord Is Actually My Brother Old Yu!?

"Th-that... what is that..."

Inside Moonlight Fortress.

Diana stared blankly at the massive, unimaginable shadow bursting out from the outermost nebula of the P-8808 Star Realm.

The silhouette of that shadow gave her a strong sense of familiarity.

"A Star System-Level Mutant Beast?"

"That terrifying Star System-Level Mutant Beast!?"

Diana recalled the scene she saw when leaving the Star Realm earlier; her heart almost stopped.

"Not only did it successfully incubate, but it’s even chased us beyond the Star Realm..."

Diana muttered, her tone tinged with confusion, yet the prior despair in her somehow eased a bit.

For her, for Moonlight Fortress.

Faced with the combined might of the high-tier civilization forces, the original outcome was certain death.

But now?

With the appearance of that horrific Star System-Level Mutant Beast, perhaps even those high-tier civilization forces would find it tricky, maybe even retreat three steps.

"Perhaps there’s still a sliver of hope..."

"Take advantage of the chaos..."

Ideas raced through Diana’s mind.

Meanwhile, outside the Star Realm.

Deep within the starry sky.

Hundreds of super large fortresses all fell into silence at once.

Inside the Closter Civilization’s Thirteenth Fortress.

Commander-in-Chief Sean Gardner stared fixedly at the enormous shadow breaking through the nebula.

"A Star System-Level Mutant Beast?"

"No, that’s a fortress..."

"But how is this fortress so gigantic, with such a high energy level?"

"It’s several times stronger than even average super large fortresses!"

The Thirteenth Fortress where Sean Gardner stood was also a super large fortress.

And flanking it on both sides, the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Fortresses, were also super large level.

But...

In front of that enormous shadow,

even the super large fortresses, the ceiling of the Wasteland Star System, looked like infants beside grown adults, a tad minuscule.

"A lucky player?"

"The one who obtained the fixed promotion quota?"

This thought popped up not only in Sean Gardner’s mind, but also in the minds of all the other high-tier civilization force commanders.

In an instant.

All gazes, including the fortress detection devices, locked onto the fortress fleet where Carol was.

"It’s moving!"

"After a whole month of silence, the first action!"

They saw—

Carol’s fortress fleet revived from dormancy, suddenly accelerating at maximum speed toward the edge of the Star Realm!

At that moment.

Closter and the other civilization forces all ignored the newly appeared Moonlight Fortress.

A mere medium-sized fortress was nothing at all before the ’fixed promotion quota player.’

"Follow them!"

"Don’t let Carol snatch the lead!"

The same order was dispatched to the fortress fleets of all high-tier civilization forces within a single second.

Boom—

Rumble—!

In the blink of an eye,

in the endless starry sky at the edge of the Star Realm, dazzling particle beams lit up—traces of fortresses and fleets at full engine thrust.

The large and super large fortresses stationed in the rear by the big high-level civilization forces were already on the move.

Just like Carol’s fleet, they all activated full-power movement, roaring toward the outermost perimeter of the Star Realm!

Even though...

The newly emerged fortress was unimaginably massive, oppressive in the extreme.

But...

It now faced a whole hundred-plus super large fortresses!

At this moment.

Among Closter and the other high-tier civilizations, not a single person felt fear or hesitation. What surged up in them was only excitement and greed!

...

...

Dawn Fortress.

Tower of the Sky, rooftop.

Yu Jin stood before the wide floor-to-ceiling windows, gazing at the distant stars.

He saw—

Carol’s fortress and fleet racing at full speed toward Dawn Fortress.

And behind them, hundreds or even thousands of fortress fleets, large and small, following close on their heels.

"Heh—"

"In such a hurry to deliver right to the doorstep?"

Yu Jin shook his head, letting out a light chuckle.

He knew very well what Closter and the other civilizations were thinking.

And this was precisely the picture he wanted to see.

Sweep them all up in one net—crush them in a single battle!

Now, there’s less than five months till the date of promotion.

To break into the Star System’s top ten thousand in five months, some unorthodox methods were clearly required.

"Boss..."

Standing behind Yu Jin, Yin Yao couldn’t be as relaxed.

She looked at the onrushing, overwhelming fortress fleets in the distance, her delicate face tinged with tension.

She knew Yu Jin was strong, knew he had all sorts of cheats up his sleeve.

But...

Wasn’t the number of these fortress fleets a bit... excessive?

"Damn, this is a bit of pressure!"

On Yu Jin’s other side,

Chen Gang muttered under his breath, already rubbing his hands in anticipation.

Back before they left the Star Realm, Yu Jin already told them—

Beyond the Star Realm, a war awaits us all.

Yet Chen Gang, along with everyone else in the fortress, hadn’t imagined that Yu Jin’s offhand ’a war’ would look this massive.

The number of large and super large fortresses...

Enough to easily wipe out any powerful civilization in the Star System Wasteland.

And Dawn Fortress?

At the end of the day, it was just a newbie force that had barely logged in after promotion...

"Naiya will always believe in Lord!"

The ever-blushing Naiya, for her part, wasn’t thinking that much right now.

She wasn’t nervous, nor was she excited.

She was still savoring her three days of ’freedom’...

[Ding—!]

Suddenly.

The clear mechanical prompt sounded within the Tower of the Sky.

[Codename S-1 Super Large Fortress requests to establish communication!]

The Tower of the Sky was not only Yu Jin’s residence, but also the central control cabin of the fortress.

"Communication?"

Yin Yao and the rest all froze at his words.

"Could it be..."

"They’re trying to talk us into surrendering?"

Hearing their guesses, Yu Jin merely smiled and said nothing.
