Wenxing Defends Enemies
On May 30th, a small spaceship took off from Mantu Star and headed towards the beautiful Wen Star in the vast interstellar space.
In the cabin of the ship, a little girl with star-like eyes was lying on the glass window. The air she exhaled condensed into a white mist on the window, which was reflected in the little girl's eyes as a sea of white.
The man in the driver's seat, with a hideous scar on his face, looked incredibly fierce. The middle-aged man and woman in the cabin both looked as if they were refugees from interstellar pirates. In the co-pilot seat of the mecha, Guila stared blankly at the control panel, her mind wandering to who knows where.
"Mr. Ku...Kuchi, was it really Mr. Ling, Lingdang who sent you to pick up our family?" The middle-aged man hesitated again and again, but still asked the same question for the third time tremblingly.
Scarface thought to himself, "Don't I just look like a bandit? Are you so scared that you've lost your ability to think normally?" "I'm not here to pick you up," Scarface turned his head and grinned, "I'm a kidnapper!"
"Ah!" The middle-aged man's face turned pale in an instant, and his legs trembled. The middle-aged woman also stood up suddenly, hugged the little girl who was leaning against the window to watch the scenery, and trembled, "You, you tie us up, please let Lele go..."
"Pfft..." Scarface saw that the couple was so frightened that he thought it would be unfair to play a prank on them. He said quickly, "It's just a joke. Besides, what do you have that's worth kidnapping? All your property has been ripped off. Why would I bother kidnapping a family of paupers like you?"
Ever since Lele said in front of the camera that blue beasts should have human rights, Lele's father's business progress has become increasingly difficult. Originally, they were developing on Mantu Star, but for some reason, Duke Nansuo, who had nothing to do with them, began to target them. Even the merchants who tried to please Duke Nansuo continued to maliciously squeeze Lele's family's market. Just when Lele's father was frowning and sadly declaring bankruptcy, the bad luck was not over yet. They were assassinated on the way to move.
At the critical moment, two people rushed out to rescue them. They were Kuchi and Guila. The two against eight was an overwhelming victory, and they successfully brought Lele and his family onto the airship.
When Lele's father heard that they were from the Blue Beast Bell and had come specially to pick them up to go to Wenxing, he thought there was something wrong with his ears or brain, so he kept asking the same questions along the way to cover up his inner panic.
In fact, it was certainly not arranged by Yu Sheng, but Xi Ze and others saw the video and predicted that the little girl would be in danger, so they sent Kuchi and Guila to take the family to Wenxing. The reason they used Yu Sheng's name was to gain trust.
"Uncle! Uncle!" The middle-aged man and woman breathed a sigh of relief, then tightened their grip, then breathed a sigh of relief again, sweat pouring down their cheeks. Their daughter Lele, however, looked innocent. She broke free from her mother's arms, ran to Scarface, raised her little face, and asked, "Can I still see Brother Lingdang? I can't even read the poem he wrote to me last time!" Even her parents couldn't read it. They only said that judging from the arrangement, it should be a poem written in some language, but they didn't know how to read it. Lele had no choice but to carefully fold the pages of the book with the poem written on it and put them in her treasure box to carry with her. After the family business went bankrupt, Lele took nothing but her own treasure box, which no one was allowed to touch.
After hearing Lele's words, Scarface and Guila froze for a moment. Kuchi simply pretended to be busy flying the spaceship and didn't hear Lele's question, even though the spaceship was currently on automatic navigation and did not require manual driving at all.
Seeing Scarface playing dumb, Guila could only force a smile at Lele, "Your brother Lingdang is not in Wenxing. He's out for something. Just be good by your parents' side, and sooner or later, brother Lingdang will come to see you."
"Oh..." Lele nodded and said sensibly, "I have always been very obedient! Brother Lingdang will come to see me soon!"
“…”
Perhaps because Lele suddenly brought up the topic that everyone had been avoiding, everyone was silent for the rest of the journey. Lele ran to the small bed in the inner cabin to count the treasures in his treasure chest, and the four adults looked at each other in silence.
"Wen Star is ahead." Finally, Scarface broke the silence and pointed to a beautiful planet on the right side of the screen.
Lele hadn't known when she'd run out of the inner room. Apparently, she'd finished counting her treasures. She stood on tiptoe, looking up at the screen. "Uncle, which one is Wenxing? What's the other one?"
"This is Wen Star. The other one was originally a resource star of the Zerg, but was later taken back by us." Guila held Lele on her lap and explained to her patiently, although Guila didn't think Lele could understand what resource star was.
"Yeah, I went to this resource planet to fight the Zerg back then." Scarface also took the time to touch Lele's head, trying to brag about his bravery. But before he could get his feelings under control, he heard Guila slam the table. "What is that? Kuchi! Enlarge the resource planet!"
Scarface's hands were quicker than his brain. Although he didn't realize why Guila wanted him to zoom in on the resource star, a close-up of the Gamma resource star was already displayed on the screen.
A huge battleship that almost merged with the starry sky was slowly sailing towards the Resource Star. Scarface's face became serious and he immediately zoomed in the camera at the maximum magnification, but he couldn't find any battleship logo.
"Let's return to Wenxing first, then report to Mr. Baijia and Mr. Moss." Guila clenched her fists. At this critical juncture of the interstellar war with the Zerg, how could a warship suddenly sneak towards Gamma Resource Planet? If Guila hadn't been a scout with superb observation skills, she probably wouldn't have spotted this warship.
The airship did not stay for long, but sailed towards Wenxing along the original route. After arriving at Wenxing, Guila went directly to find Baijia, while Scarface left Lele's family to Haydn and went to the military headquarters to submit the task to his superiors.
Haydn had already made preparations. He bought a spacious and well-decorated apartment for the family of three in the most prosperous and conveniently located area of the royal city. He also arranged for Lele to attend the best primary school in the royal city and recommended well-paid jobs for Lele's parents. Of course, Haydn also told Lele's father that if he still wanted to do business, he could lend them his property.
Seeing the worried look on the middle-aged couple's faces, Haydn used his own family as an example to comfort them. Haydn's parents had just been brought to Wenxing a month ago. When they met, they almost beat Haydn, their troublesome son, to death. Fortunately, Gary stopped them and saved Haydn's life.
"My parents have only been in Wenxing for a month, but their business is already starting to take shape," Haydn said enthusiastically. "You two really don't have to be sad. As the saying goes, there's no construction without destruction. Maybe Wenxing will be your new opportunity!"
Haydn's words were sincere and pleasing. Moreover, it was an unexpected surprise for Lele's family to have such favorable conditions now, so they certainly would not be greedy. After thanking Haydn repeatedly, the middle-aged man left with his wife and daughter.
On the other hand, after receiving Guila's report, Baijia held an emergency meeting to analyze the origin and purpose of the warship.
"I think it's Queen Qiu En's warship," Guluo said, frowning. "She's involved with the Zerg, and I didn't expect her to actually allow them to suppress Interstellar. Queen Qiu En organized her army to recapture this resource planet from the Zerg. Given her character, I'm afraid that even though Gamma Resource Planet may appear to belong to Interstellar, the Zerg are still hiding there."
"The closest star to Gamma Resource Star is Wen Star!" Someone said anxiously, "How about we send troops to investigate the resource star?"
"No, no, what if this planet is really infested with insects? Then the army will never come back."
"Instead of waiting for death, it is better to strike first!"
“…”
Seeing the clamor, Bai Jia knocked on the table coldly. He waited until the room calmed down before saying, "Notify all cities to activate five-star defense mode and closely monitor the movements of this resource planet! Gu Luo, notify the special training camp and send large groups to strategic locations. The garrisons in each city should be on high alert and enter combat readiness!"
"Yes!" Guluo stood at attention and received the order.
No one expected that the war would break out so suddenly. In the early morning of the next day, the city on Wenxing, the closest city to Ziyuanxing, sounded the war alarm.
The shrill sound of sirens echoed throughout the city. Above the city, a swarm of Zerg flying bees flew over. People who had not had time to evacuate fled in all directions, screaming and crying.
Someone shouted, "The army is coming!"
Everyone immediately found their backbone, and under official evacuation, they quickly and orderly took refuge in shelters. Meanwhile, the well-trained and imposing soldiers rushed to the front lines, building a fortress of life for the people.
After receiving news of the Zerg raid on Wenxing, the United Interstellar Forces also convened an emergency meeting. Their biggest puzzlement was how the Zerg, who were clearly on the front lines fighting the Interstellar Alliance, could suddenly appear and attack Wenxing? How had they managed to infiltrate the interstellar space so silently?
"It's the Gamma Resource Star. The Zerg emerged from the Gamma Resource Star!" the subordinate reported excitedly.
"Notify Queen Qiu En immediately and lead the interstellar coalition to support Wen Xing!" No matter how big the gap is, they still have to unite against the Zerg, not to mention that Wen Xing is still a member of the Interstellar Alliance.
But for some unknown reason, the communication to the front line was cut off, and the signal connecting to Wenxing was also intermittent, with extremely poor contact. The three presidents of the United Interstellar Council were so anxious that they tried to break the enemy's signal shielding through various anti-interference methods, but it was of no avail.
Has the Zerg's technology reached this point?
Everyone had a guess, but no one dared to voice it out loud, because the answer was so despairing and terrifying. If the Zerg's technology truly surpassed humanity's, then... would humanity still have a chance of victory?
The only way to know the battle situation on the front line and Wenxing now is to send a team to observe directly not far from the battlefield. This not only wastes time, but also makes those who go to the battlefield a life-threatening situation.
The Zerg retreated from the front lines, and the interstellar alliance won without a fight.
The frontline Zerg shifts its position to Wenxing, and Zerg suddenly appear on Gamma Resource Star.
The Zerg Attacks Wenxing City L at Night, Sounding the Battle Horn
The news flooded the interstellar network, and the United Interstellar was in a state of panic. They couldn't contact Queen Qiu En, and Queen Qiu En didn't contact them. The messengers sent to the front lines had disappeared without a trace. However, Queen Qiu En had the interstellar order, so they wanted to temporarily dispatch the interstellar coalition forces to support Wenxing, but there was really no way!

"Yu Guang, have you really thought it through?" Xi Ze half-knelt in front of Yu Guang, looked him straight in the eye, and said, "You have to understand that you are only a child of ten, but you will face a real battlefield."
"I've made up my mind." Yu Guang clenched his fists, his eyes determined. "I am the prince of Wenxing. The soldiers of Wenxing are fighting on the front lines. I absolutely cannot hide behind them like a coward!"
"Okay." Xi Ze squeezed Yu Guang's palm and said to him in an adult manner, "I support you."
"What? It's okay that His Highness is young, but you're also going to act like that?" Bai Jia was overwhelmed by Yu Guang's request to go to the front lines. "How old is His Highness? Besides, he's the crown prince. We can't afford anything that goes wrong! Guns don't have eyes on the battlefield!"
Xi Ze was scolded by Bai Jia, but his expression did not change. "Mr. Bai Jia, Yu Guang is a noble prince. He has the right to choose to lead the army in person."
"Yes! Uncle Baijia!" Yu Guang raised his head and faced the much taller Baijia without showing any arrogance. "I must unite with my army to win the final victory!"
Bai Jia was stunned, and Xize looked at Yu Guang's face in a trance.
It’s like, it really seems like, Yu Sheng, he is just like you, no matter what happens, he can face it with the most firm and courageous belief.
"I must be crazy to agree to your ridiculous decision." Baijia muttered and hurried away to make arrangements.
At night, Caesar returned to his room and unexpectedly found a man standing at his door, Moss.
"Why are you here?" Caesar could already get along with Moss like a friend, but he ignored all of Moss's overtures. "I'm so busy with the war right now, and you still have time to chat with me?"
Moss raised his head, his eyes darkened. It was obvious that he hadn't rested for many days. "Xize, I have to go to the front tomorrow."
Caesar's heart skipped a beat. "What are you going to do? You won't be of any help to the war situation, will you? You might as well help Baijia deal with the affairs of the cities on the planet."
"This is the latest secret weapon developed by you and Master Miller." Moss said, "I don't trust others to transport it, so I'm going there myself." Once the secret is leaked to the Zerg, the Wenxing army will be completely helpless.
After a moment of silence, Caesar raised his eyes, met Moss's lingering gaze, and said coldly, "Return safely."
Moss's body trembled imperceptibly. He took a step towards Caesar, bent down, and his nose almost touched Caesar's forehead. He lowered his voice very carefully and said, "You... do you want me to come back alive? Will you wait for me?"
