T-1001 Star Realm.

Stellar Battlefield.

Countless fortress battleships, quietly lie in wait.

Billions of eyes, fixed on the center of the star realm.

That void is the battlefield of Yu Jin and Han Ling.

That void remains utterly impenetrable to eyes.

Time, slowly passes.

Unsure how much time has passed.

A certain moment.

Boom—

Thundering—!

The void erupts with a deafening roar.

Its vibrations sweep through the entire star realm, even triggering fleet alarm sounds within countless fortress warships.

"Is it over?"

"Who won?"

In the starry sky.

Yin Ya Naiya, be it Celestial God Civilization’s group of high-tier Evolvers, are stabilizing themselves amidst the energy ripples, simultaneously looking at the center of the star realm.

But...

Their view remains nothing but emptiness.

That part of the starry sky remains shielded by layers of folded space-time, impenetrable.

"Has it not ended yet..."

As time trickles away.

Even those confident in Yu Jin like Yin Yao and others, find their hearts unexpectedly filled with a trace of tension.

After all, it is the decisive duel of Tier Twenty terrifying max-level powerful beings.

The variables within, unpredictable.

And at the next moment.

Boom—

Thundering—!

Several more explosive sounds burst forth.

But this time, they originate not from the star realm center but the outskirts.

"Huh?"

"Could the battle have moved outside the star realm?"

Swish—

Swish swish—

In an instant.

Billions from both civilizations turn their heads collectively towards another direction.

And the next second, everyone is frozen in place.

Whoosh—!

Whoosh whoosh—!

Beyond the star realm, countless streaks of light roar forth.

Each streak of light is a colossal fortress battleship!

The leading streak of golden light is a magnificent medium-sized battleship, exuding an indescribable aura of nobility.

The speed of the medium battleship is incredibly fast, far beyond everyone’s comprehension, even Tier Nineteen Limit beings like Yin Ya Naiya can’t capture its traces.

Just a moment’s blur.

Swish—

The golden warship is already nearing the center of the star realm.

Yin Yao, Naiya, Neil...

A multitude of high-ranking commanders from the Celestial God Civilization.

Seeing the gigantic warship within arm’s reach, everyone is unanimously stunned.

"This, this..."

"Such a familiar battleship!"

The high-rank members of Celestial God Civilization react belatedly.

"The Athena!"

The highest legion commander’s young man shouts incredulously.

At the next moment.

Whoosh—

Whoosh whoosh—!

More fortress battleships continuously arrive.

Only a short span of time.

The entire star realm center is completely filled by the Ophelia fleet!

Whether Celestial God Civilization or Dawn Fortress, their originally imposing fortress battleships appear minuscule and insignificant before the sudden immense fleet.

"What’s going on?"

"Isn’t Celestial God Civilization ranked as the top civilization force in the star system..."

"How can there be more experts?"

Chen Gang looks at the Ophelia fleet surrounding him entirely, with its formidable momentum, eyes wide open.

And on the other side.

Recognizing the Athena among the Celestial God Civilization’s high-rank members, hearts instantly sink halfway.

The reason is simple.

They all know very well how much the owner of the Athena values Yu Jin!

Her previous arrival in this star system was to find that young man!

And now...

In the crucial phase of the duel between the two sides, Athena’s sudden arrival is sure to completely tip the balance.

Unless...

"Lord Celestial God can kill that guy!"

"As long as that guy is killed before Athena shows herself!"

"There’s still a chance for everything!"

The highest commander of the Celestial God Civilization Corps screams inwardly.

And on the other side.

From within the suspended Athena warship in the starry sky, light flashes.

Whoosh—!

Several figures fly out.

Leading the way is none other than the angelic and stunning Athena Ophelia with golden hair.

Behind her, Don Flack and Aaron Ferguson follow along.

And...

Cao Fang, extremely worried about Yu Jin’s situation.

On the way to the Drake-3 Star System Wasteland.

Cao Fang already understood the current situation from Athena.

She also knows Han Ling obtained enormous fortress battleship resources from the high-dimension Nash Clan and is highly likely waging war against Yu Jin.

Now...

Looking at the sky crowded densely with almost countless interstellar corps, capable of easily leveling any Star System Wasteland Server, Cao Fang’s heart rises to her throat.

"Xiaojin!"

The moment Cao Fang appears, she can’t help but shout towards the sky.

Her gaze sweeps through group after group near the central battlefield.

Soon.

Cao Fang sees familiar faces.

Yin Yao?

The young girl who once accompanied Yu Jin to visit Old Yu when he was hospitalized on Blue Star.

Old Cui, Yu Fei, Chen Gang?

These were Yu Jin’s college dorm mates who once came to Old Yu’s restaurant in Gunzhou for a meal.

And...

"Old Yu!"

"Xiaochen!"

Cao Fang sees her dearly missed husband and young son.

"Ah Fang?!"

"Mom?!"

On the other side.

Old Yu and Yu Chen in the starry sky also notice Cao Fang standing beside Athena.

Swish—

At this moment.

The father and son both ignore Athena and the oppressive threat of the Ophelia fleet.

With a flick, they shuttle to Cao Fang’s side.

The family of three embraces tightly.

Usually heedless Old Yu, seeing his wife Cao Fang, suddenly has his eyes reddened.

Their youngest son Yu Chen tightly snuggles in Cao Fang’s embrace, repeatedly calling ’Mom,’ asking ’Where were you before’ and ’How did you appear here’ nonstop.
