"General, we have pursued them far enough. Shall we turn back?"
On the ninth day after the war began, the Dun people had lost the novelty of the first few days and were becoming increasingly irritable.
They are not afraid of war, but they are afraid that the enemy will not fight and will retreat.
The key problem was that the train was moving too fast, so they could only maintain a pursuit state and it was difficult to actually engage in combat.
Obli was also hesitant about his subordinates' questions.
He led the army for a long time, more than five million years.
Of course he knew the principle of not pursuing a desperate enemy.
"Everyone is eager to make a contribution. If we withdraw like this, it will have a huge impact on the army's morale. Consult Lord Barlow immediately and let him make the decision."
Aubrey kicked the ball to the base.
Soon after, intelligence arrived that Barlow requested to continue the pursuit, but set a limit that must not exceed two hundred light years.
"How far is the range?"
"Only the last ten light years left."
"Okay, let's keep chasing. If we still can't catch up, forget it. It's so f*cking frustrating. How can a train be so fast?"
The entire army was feeling aggrieved and wished they could tear the convoy ahead into pieces, otherwise they would never be able to relieve the hatred in their hearts.
…
On the Chucktown train, Heyman learned about the enemy's situation and laughed heartily.
"It's impossible to catch up to the train with just the warships. Will our losses be great?"
The intelligent computer replied: "Only a small amount of rare resources were lost along the way, and the vast majority were obsolete items."
In other words, the current losses are not significant.
But there are also hidden dangers. On both sides of the convoy, enemy star-picking planes sometimes fly by, posing a considerable threat.
Fortunately, the convoy was protected by the star-picking personnel everywhere, so it was not attacked on a large scale.
The train's shuttle speed is actually a little faster than the star-picking speed, but the train is sometimes delayed by war and has to fight back, so it is easy to be caught up.
"No matter how powerful the Star Picker is, it can't stop the train from continuously shuttling. Don't stop. By the way, how far is the target point?"
"Less than ten light years. There are distorted star structures there, and we can take advantage of the opportunity to counterattack."
Heyman contacted Chen An and once again confirmed that the plan was being implemented normally.
"Don't worry, I have a plan."
Chen An had already made preparations, and all the trains were ready to go, quietly moving towards the rear of the Dun tribe.
Four of the auxiliary trains were separated from the convoy. Their mission was to cut off the connection between the main force of the Don tribe and the base, and then set up an interception network.
【Four hours later, we will arrive at the preset location】
Chen An strictly controls the entire process and does not allow any accidents.
"Very good, you will be in full command from now on. I'm leaving now."
He took Manman and Sheila with him and opened a passage towards the trap.
The trap is in the edge of the starry sky, where there are a large number of massive stars that can provide assistance to Manman.
After setting the trap, Chen An opened the passage to the base.
The Dun tribe base still looks the same as before, but the number of warships is visibly much less.
He spread his consciousness and stabbed towards the base, easily entering the internal network.
After a while, Chen An looked strange.
"They didn't even report it to the Star Conquest Hall."
[In other words, the Star Expedition Hall is still unaware of the train's existence.]
"That's right. No wonder we haven't spotted any signs of the Star-Swallowing Tribe after all this time. Barlow wanted to take the most credit, so he suppressed the information."
This is good news, as it means they have more time.
Chen An looked around, his consciousness moving freely in the network.
At some point, he deliberately revealed a flaw and alerted the base's network center.
Alarms sounded all of a sudden, and Chen An quickly regained consciousness.
"How dare you spy on my base?"
Barlow was furious. He raised his hand and tore open the space. The next moment he was near Chen An.
When he arrived, Chen An had just opened the passage and gave him a bright smile in return.
"Human creatures, possibly from the train. Humph, no matter how strong you are, you can only be a star. How dare you be so presumptuous."
In order to avoid losing the coordinates, Barlow followed the shuttle.
In fact, if Chen An wanted to get rid of it, he could directly open the passage at the trap location.
But in order to prevent Barlow from losing the coordinates, Chen An divided the road into several sections and traveled through them one by one.
The final destination is in a trap.
"He's coming, be ready."
When Barlow arrived at the location, countless branches rolled towards him, forming a dense closed layer.
"So there's a trap. Do you want to trap me with this thing?"
Barlow suddenly released his imperial body, trying to break through the sealing layer.
It turns out that it is not that easy, as this branch is extremely strong.
"Who are you?"
Outside the trap, Chen An stretched out his imperial body and looked down at Barlow, who was restricted in height.
"Surrender or die."
Barlow was genuinely frightened. He quickly realized something was amiss and angrily shouted, "Your strongest is only at the Multiverse level. Do you expect me to surrender?"
With a burst of strength, he tore through the branches of the vine and soared in height.
When it was almost a million kilometers away, hundreds of cells joined forces to suppress Barlow.
"What kind of plant can actually trap me?"
Not only was his body trapped, he couldn't even tear open the space cracks, so he couldn't travel through them.
Then another force came, the stream of consciousness.
"And there are masters of playing with consciousness, I found you."
Barlow waved his tentacles, forced his way out of the trap, and attacked Sheila, who was more than 2 billion kilometers away.
But the tentacle stopped halfway and was grabbed by Chen An.
"You are a prisoner now, and you still dare to be so arrogant?"
Chen An's arm muscles bulged and he pulled hard, causing the galaxy to shake. Barlow's tentacles were pulled out of his body alive, and the emperor's energy was visibly weakened.
This made Barlow even more crazy. He hit the branches with all his strength, and countless branches were smashed every moment.
But Manman is very resilient and can always recover quickly, leaving Barlow with many abilities but unable to fully utilize them.
"Chen An, I'm going in."
Sheila is indeed a master of stream of consciousness. She found the right angle and entered Barlow's consciousness universe.
"Very good, disturb him."
With his body trapped and his consciousness continuously under attack, Barlow felt something was wrong.
"Who are you?"
Chen An replied, "You've sent people to chase my train for so long, and you still don't know who I am?"
Barlow: "Impossible. If the train has multiple levels, it can't just keep fleeing. It will definitely fight back. I am the leader of the Dun tribe and the guardian of the Star Path appointed by the Star Conqueror tribe. If you go against me, you are actually going against the Star Conqueror Palace. The end result will be your own death and the annihilation of your clan. But if you follow me to the Star Conqueror Palace, you can get a good official position and have a bright future."
"Your so-called future is to be a slave to the Star-Sweeping Tribe?"
After hearing this, Barlow was speechless and could not speak for a long time.
After a while, he said, "Being a slave is better than being exterminated. You don't know how powerful the Star Conqueror Clan is. You are just a frog in the well!"
Chen An asked with a smile: "What you mean by powerful, is that they have the Wuji Emperor? I know this, but what can I do? The Wuji Emperor is not invincible."
Barlow replied coldly, "The Infinite Emperor is enough to guard us slaves. But if I say that the Star Conqueror Clan has the Law Emperor, how will you respond?"
