Chen An told the truth about the current situation, the structure of the Star Road, and the combat power of the Dun Clan.

Heyman knew that Chen An would not lie to him, and his mood immediately became better. He ordered the army to return to defend.

Fortunately, the convoy did not collapse too badly. When the other train captains saw Heyman's train turn around to defend, they immediately followed suit.

However, a small number of trains ran away without looking back, as they did not trust Heyman enough.

As the train launched a full-scale counterattack, the Dun tribe's pursuit was curbed and the situation between the two sides gradually became balanced.

…

"Brother Chen, what are your plans?"

Seeing that the Dun tribe was indeed not very strong as Chen An said, Heyman finally felt relieved.

Chen An replied: "It's easy to defeat the main force of the Dun tribe. You can do it. As for the multi-level Dun tribe base, I can find a way to deal with it. The key is that we can't alert the Star Conqueror tribe in the process. At least not before we cross the Star Road."

"Then what?"

"Then, you will continue to fight the Dun tribe, pretending to be defeated and retreating while fighting. The goal is to drag the battlefield back. Once we reach the planned position, I will intercept you from behind, and then it will be time for a counterattack."

The content was easy to understand, and Heyman suddenly understood.

"There's just one problem. The Multiverse isn't easy to deal with. Wait, you said you could handle it. Do you have a Multiverse in your car?"

Chen An said calmly: "I barely broke through a thousand years ago."

The communication was disconnected, leaving Heyman with a lot of room for imagination.

He didn't know who was at the multi-level, nor did he know how many there were, but he knew that Chen An's team was very strong.

"Never mind him. There won't be any conflict between us right now. The stronger he is, the safer I am."

Heyman casually pulled open the light curtain and remotely controlled the entire battlefield.

"Continue retreating. It can be a little chaotic, but we must maintain basic order. Occasionally drop something to trick the enemy into thinking we're in a hurry."

…

Inside the Dun tribe's main ship, Commander Aubrey leaned casually on the driver's seat, with four female members of the tribe serving him.

A circle of light suddenly popped up on the screen, and then with the help of the intelligent system, it was summarized and organized, which was the intelligence sent by the subordinate army.

"The enemy's biological types are very complex, mainly carbon-based. The strongest one we've seen so far is a star-level one, and no multi-level one has been found."

"The enemy is retreating in an orderly manner, but it's just an illusion. Judging from the large amount of rare supplies they abandoned along the way, it can be seen that their leader is very anxious."

"Our army is doing its best to surround it, but the train is so fast that the warships can barely keep up."

There was a wealth of intelligence, but Aubrey only extracted the key points. After reading it, he laughed. "How strong can an extraterrestrial civilization in this region be? The dozen or so Star-level civilizations are probably all high-end combat forces. Tell the generals to work harder and strive to end the battle within half a month. We still have time to return to the wasteland for the holidays."

As the saying goes, what goes up must come down. Since the commander-in-chief has such a contemptuous attitude, the officials below will naturally do the same.

Therefore, the army of the Dun tribe was particularly happy and showed a crushing attitude.

Only a few frustrated young generals discovered the clue: the enemy seemed to be retreating, but in fact it was well-organized and not a complete defeat.

Unfortunately, their opinions were not taken seriously.

…

In the rear base, inside the central command center of the Dun tribe.

As the strongest and supreme commander, Barlow was in a good mood.

"It's too difficult to achieve merit by defending the Star Road. Besides clearing out the escaped low-level slave tribes, we can only wait for an invasion from foreign civilizations. But no civilization dares to invade us. We must seize this opportunity. Even if they want to surrender, we cannot allow them to do so."

The secretary beside him was uneasy and asked, "Should we inform the Starry Sky Palace of the news?"

Barlow waved his hand and deleted the intelligence data prepared on the screen.

"Don't be in a hurry. Wait until we are about to defeat the opponent before reporting it. This way we can demonstrate our efficiency."

Even though Chen An was a meticulous thinker, he could not have imagined that the Dun clan was so greedy for merit that they did not pass on such important information.

If he knew this was the case, Chen An wouldn't have needed to think too much and could have just led the convoy forward.

"How's the battle going?"

The secretary replied, "The enemy is losing ground, and we have achieved a great victory. But annihilating them completely will not be easy; it will take more time."

Barlow nodded repeatedly, praising his own wit.

If we tell the news of the train to Zhengxing Palace now, those masters will definitely urge us to stop it. Even if we defeat the train in the future, we won't get much benefit and may even be punished.

"The old guys in the Star Expedition Hall are becoming increasingly foolish. We must be more cautious."

In this way, a tacit understanding was developed between the two sides.

The Dun tribe is chasing them, and the convoy is fleeing, creating a strange balance.

Only Chen An stood in the perspective of God and observed the progress of the plan.

【According to the current progress, it will be completed in ten days】

Chen An frowned. "The convoy went to attack the Dun tribe's army that day. I need to deal with Barlow, so I need to lure him out in advance. I'm afraid I'm not very confident, so it's best to set a trap."

【What trap can trap the multiverse? 】

"We don't have to trap him, just create obstacles for him. When the time comes, I'll bring Manman and Sheila with me; they can help me. If I really can't kill him, I'll execute the final plan, put all the trains into the microcosm, and break through alone."

Chen An also considered the priority of this last option. It can be used, but it would require too much of a contribution from himself, and may not be suitable for the team.

After setting up the plan, Chen An traveled to the outer starry sky, where Manman was.

"Dad, look at my trap, isn't it awesome?"

In the dim light, Manman folded branches to create a trap, trapping Qianqiu and Xiaoxiao.

The two girls tried their best but couldn't get out.

"Try it on me."

Manman's true form appeared beside her. She pouted and shook her head: "I can trap anyone, but I can't trap you. I won't do it."

"It's not about necessarily trapping me, but adapting to my intensity."

"Oh, I'll try!"

After a while, countless branches shot out and crossed to block Chen An.

Those branches look easy to break, but they are actually of high quality and can withstand the emperor's tearing.

But no matter how strong the branches are, they will disintegrate on their own once touched by Chen An.

This is enough to prove that Manman’s strength is not only due to her own strength, but also due to some powerful rules.

Chen An has been interested in studying rules recently, so he often uses Manman for experiments.

"Dad, are you okay?"

Chen An shook his head: "This intensity is not enough to suppress Barlow, you keep increasing the pressure."

The branches became thicker, and the leaves pressed down like planets. Chen An was under immeasurable pressure.

"That's quite interesting. Can it be strengthened?"

Then I saw dark green objects flying over and hanging around, increasing the pressure to another level.

"Ball cells, right? This thing is enough, it's very powerful."

If it weren’t for the Origin Emperor Body, Chen An might have been crushed.

He flew towards the spherical cell, and the branches around it automatically untied themselves.

"I suddenly discovered that spherical cells seem to be able to devour."

[Nonsense, everything can be devoured. But I don't recommend devouring the spherules, as they're more effective against Manman.]

"I'm just saying it, I won't steal the child's things."
