Chapter 1576: Chapter 511: Prophecy, But Not Fully Foretold (6k)
When Bai Yi finished speaking, everyone remained silent for over ten seconds before they realized what they had just heard.
New Star Zone? The real headquarters?
They understood these words separately, but when combined, they felt so unfamiliar, as if they didn’t belong to them at all.
What does it mean for the headquarters to be in the New Star Zone?
Weren’t those church headquarters on some planet at the borders of those star regions?
But instead, hidden in the New Star Zone?
If that’s really the case...
The fact that they were chosen to carry out this mission already meant the trust of the Three Great Civilizations, and thus they were all on the pioneering list for the New Star Zone, familiar with the situation there.
They naturally guessed what it would mean if all this were true.
If the real headquarters of those believers is in the New Star Zone, and the Three Great Civilizations only recently discovered it, it means they have secretly developed there for hundreds or even thousands of years.
So what strength do these believers really have?
At the thought of this answer, their first reaction was disbelief.
But clearly, if it was announced in such a formal setting and taken seriously by the Three Great Civilizations, it wouldn’t be false news.
Just knowing this, many couldn’t help but ask:
"Lord Fanmao, are you sure of what you just said?"
"New Star Zone? How could it be in the New Star Zone!"
"..."
Predictably, Bai Yi didn’t attempt to explain, turning instead to look at Jue Nalu, who had stepped aside, saying:
"I know you all have many questions and you can’t believe it.
We are about to take action, so there’s no need for secrecy anymore.
You can first take a look at the intelligence I’ve personally gathered. Once you read it, you will understand."
Jue Nalu took out a tablet, operated it a few times, and the high-tier communication devices emitted different notifications, prompting everyone to check the received data.
For the umpteenth time, he saw similar expressions appear; none of those present were foolish. Upon seeing the information in the data, they immediately realized the gravity of the situation.
Using facts as evidence was far more useful than any explanation.
The carefully selected data was quickly read, and the expressions of all high-tier strong persons became unanimous, silently refocusing their gaze on Bai Yi, who was held high by the Tree-man.
"It seems everyone understands the situation now and should have no questions about this mission.
The danger level of these believers has far exceeded all original expectations. Now if they complete the transfer, there will be no restraints, and they must be eliminated immediately.
As I just said, the goal of our mission this time is their real headquarters, to eliminate them before they complete the transfer.
To this end, the Three Great Civilizations have decided to go all out.
The major fleets at the front will synchronize with us to launch an attack, drawing out the main forces of those believers to provide us cover.
And the objective of our fleet is to serve as the first vanguard of this war.
Using the intelligence advantage, launch a preemptive strike on those believers before they can react!"
All present were high-tier strong persons, seasoned veterans of the Starry Sky, not requiring excessive explanation. Within a few words, they combined the data received earlier to understand the role of their fleet.
Now they held an intelligence advantage due to Fan Mao, but the mobilization of the main force of the Three Great Civilizations was so extensive that it was impossible to penetrate the believers’ core areas before their fleets could return to defense.
If delayed even momentarily by these returning fleets, those believers might complete the transfer.
And this fleet was to penetrate the ’home ground’ of those believers before they could defend, disrupting their transfer.
Moreover, before the fleets of the Three Great Civilizations arrived, this fleet would hold off the returning fleets briefly, gaining time for the actual main force to arrive.
Thinking of this, they understood why the Three Great Civilizations had maintained such strict confidentiality earlier.
Given those believers’ prophetic abilities, if any intelligence leaked, or if it became known they had found this headquarters, those fleets would likely return immediately.
That’s a massive fleet that’s been fending off attacks in various edge areas of the Starry Sky for over a month and still has strength to spare, accumulated from hundreds or thousands of years of development in the New Star Zone.
If used wisely, even the regular armies of the Three Great Civilizations could be stalled for a long time.
Of course, even though they’re launching a surprise attack now, they inevitably have to face the massive fleet of those believers.
Moreover, it’s this fleet that has to face them alone, albeit briefly.
Although this fleet is substantial, compared to the continually reinforcing fleets, it’s still outnumbered by a large margin.
Even though this fleet needs only to stall momentarily, and not face them all at once, it will undoubtedly be a tough battle.
But they didn’t intend to back down.
They had grown with the support of the Three Great Civilizations, with all their resources and influence closely tied to the Three Great Civilizations, sharing common interests in this area.
They originally tolerated the existence of those believers, even feigned compliance under the suppression of the Three Great Civilizations, because those believers were barely alive.
Now, as they became a threat, they had become targets that must be eliminated.
