Chapter 459: #459 - Section 459

The general's eyes were wide with anger, his emotions running high!

Hearing his words, the others showed varying degrees of hesitation on their faces.

Seeing the reactions of those around him, the general grew anxious. He stared directly at Zhou Qian, as if he wanted to leap out of the virtual screen!

"Zhou Qian! This is our best chance!"

"We can't stop! So many people have died! We can't stop! As long as we fight, we still have a chance at life!"

"Let me go! My 34th Regiment is willing to take the lead! We'll go and deplete Kaiyuan's last resources!"

"Bang! Enough!"

Zhou Qian suddenly stood up!

His bloodshot eyes stared straight at the general, then swept over everyone.

"Rest first. Even if we counterattack, we need to arrange a good strategy."

With that, Zhou Qian walked out of the meeting room.

"Zhou Qian! Where are you going?!"

"I'm going to check on the Kaiyuan fleet's situation."

Saying this, Zhou Qian left the meeting room!

Inside the meeting room, everyone looked at each other, and finally, everyone looked at the emotional general.

"General Liu... you... alas..."

...

Meanwhile, Zhou Qian was speeding towards the Kaiyuan fleet...

Although he was about to venture alone into Kaiyuan's massive fleet, his mind was on something else.

That was...

Was Jiang Wang really the one who attacked the Nuoyun Star System?

Chapter 480: High-Level Information is Often Gathered Through Simple Inquiries

If it wasn't Jiang Wang, then who could it be?

Could it really be an unknown Zerg powerhouse?

That possibility was low. Not to mention whether such a powerhouse could exist under the noses of the three major forces, even if there was, what would their motive be?

One must know that Kaiyuan was currently at its zenith. Almost everyone knew that the Star Alliance was doomed, and Kaiyuan would devour everything from the Star Alliance and become even more powerful.

So at this time, even if there was such a powerhouse, Zhou Qian didn't think they would rashly attack Kaiyuan.

But if it wasn't an unknown powerhouse, then it could be Jiang Wang...

But if it really was Jiang Wang, then things would be a bit terrifying...

Because from the time Qian Duoduo took Jiang Wang away until now, it had only been a little over half a year...

Before he left, he was barely Diamond rank.

But half a year later, Jiang Wang had the ability to attack the Nuoyun Star System, which was guarded by a Grandmaster-level powerhouse?

And this was just to contend with the high-end combat power of the Nuoyun Star System. One must know that the resource star system possessed not only high-level powerhouses, but also a massive guarding fleet and all kinds of forces protecting it. With this kind of configuration, even if Zhou Qian personally led the Star Alliance fleet to attack, he would have to pay an extremely heavy price, and he might not even be able to take it down.

Therefore, when someone said that Jiang Wang was the one who attacked the Nuoyun Star System, he didn't believe it. Not only him, but everyone in the Star Alliance command center didn't believe it.

After all, it was too outrageous.

Because if a person were to go from early Diamond rank to possessing the ability to fight Grandmaster-level experts, and even possess a fleet that was enough to threaten the Nuoyun Star System in half a year, then Zhou Qian could only say that even if Ye Chen were still alive!

It! Would! Be! Impossible!

But so what?

At this time, Zhou Qian would rather believe that this unknown powerhouse was Jiang Wang!

Because the Star Alliance had reached the end of the road. In a short half a year, facing Kaiyuan's frenzied attacks, the Star Alliance's losses were much greater than expected.

In his expectation, although the Star Alliance's high-end combat power was one-time use, did Kaiyuan have many Grandmasters and high-end combat power?

As the two sides went to war, Zhou Qian discovered that Kaiyuan did indeed have a lot of high-end combat power...

Moreover, not only were there many, but Kaiyuan's artificial Grandmasters also possessed Abyss Cores. If they couldn't win, they would self-destruct. Their difficulty was almost the same as the Star Alliance's Elders.

As for Kaiyuan's fleet, it possessed even more advanced knowledge of various cannons and warships.

And from the space that Jiang Wang brought back in the secret realm.

Kaiyuan's warships used a lot of Myriad Kingdom's knowledge, which showed that Kaiyuan's exploration of the Abyss area far exceeded theirs.

And although the Myriad Kingdom's knowledge had passed through a long period of time, it still possessed advancedness in the face of Kaiyuan, which was stuck in its ways, and the Star Alliance, which was forced to seal off its technology.

Therefore, when Kaiyuan and the Star Alliance went to war, the Star Alliance instantly discovered that the combat power of the two sides was not balanced, whether it was high-end combat power or main battleships...

There were some gaps.

And this was also the reason why the Star Alliance was almost interrupted in just half a year.

Just like what General Liu said, if the Kaiyuan fleet really had difficulties in resource supply, then this opportunity was definitely the best time for the Star Alliance to pull back its disadvantage.

After all, no matter how good a warship was, without energy to drive it, it was just a pile of scrap iron!

And if the Star Alliance chose to recuperate and watch Kaiyuan solve the Nuoyun crisis and recover from its energy shortage, then the Star Alliance would have no hope on the frontal battlefield.

Therefore, the Star Alliance could only grit its teeth and hold on, even if it was about to die!

It had to hold on!

It was also because of these reasons that Zhou Qian clearly knew that the Zerg who attacked the Nuoyun Star System probably wasn't Jiang Wang, but he was still willing to believe that it was Jiang Wang...

Because the soldiers who had been beaten up by Kaiyuan and the Star Alliance leadership needed a hope, needed a hero!

The Star Alliance! Needed a hope!

And Jiang Wang was just right!

Even if Zhou Qian hadn't determined the true identity of that Insect Lord at this time, and even if there was a possibility of being exposed after creating a god.

But so what.

As long as he didn't say that the unknown powerhouse was external, wouldn't that be fine?

Because of Qian Duoduo's existence, Jiang Wang would most likely live. Because of Aunt Li Xue's existence, Jiang Wang would also most likely return to the Star Alliance.

So now, he only needed to vigorously publicize the unknown powerhouse who attacked the Nuoyun Star System and shape him into a person with lofty ideals who couldn't stand Kaiyuan, then it would also have a positive effect on the Star Alliance's soldiers.

When Jiang Wang returned, the logic would complete the closed loop. Even if someone said that Jiang Wang couldn't be that unknown powerhouse, wouldn't it be fine to refute and deny it?

Thinking of this, Zhou Qian had even listed a series of action plans for this matter.

And as his figure quickly streaked across the dark universe, he saw a scene of devastation within the Star Alliance's territory. Looking at these broken warships and almost shattered planets, Zhou Qian's heart inexplicably rose with a burst of anger.

He even had the urge to rush into the Kaiyuan fleet and kill wantonly.

But soon, as Zhou Qian's sword intent swept over, his heart gradually returned to calm.

After absorbing blood energy, he had been like this recently, extremely easily dominated by emotions. Blood bravery was a good thing for a soldier, but for him, the current leader of the Star Alliance, it was a disaster.

Once he really rushed into the Kaiyuan fleet and killed wantonly, then his end would most likely be being besieged. The good result was that he killed many Kaiyuan Grandmasters, while he was seriously injured and dying, and the bad result was that he died there...

It wasn't that he couldn't die, but that he couldn't die now...

Therefore, at this time, Zhou Qian looked at the broken and tragic state of the Star Alliance's territory. Even though his heart was extremely heavy, he could only force himself to remain calm.

Before long, Zhou Qian felt the massive Kaiyuan fleet.

And the high-level powerhouses within the Kaiyuan fleet, after sensing Zhou Qian's aura, also flew out of the fleet one after another.

Zhou Qian looked at those artificial Grandmasters exuding Abyss aura and a hint of disdain flashed in his heart. Then, he said loudly.

"I heard that Kaiyuan's Nuoyun Star System has been attacked by an unknown powerhouse, and this attack has also led to a shortage of resources in your fleet. I would like to ask, is there such a thing? Are you short of energy?"

"If you really can't bear the shortage, we can help."

As soon as these words came out, not only were the Kaiyuan high-level Grandmasters who were facing a great enemy stunned, but even a kind of ordinary Kaiyuan officers were also stunned.

Because although these officers didn't understand why the war was in such a good situation, they suddenly retreated, but some with a keen sense had already noticed a trace of the problem.

Although Ah Yi's strategic retreat was to cut flesh with a blunt knife and torture the Star Alliance to death.

But the bottom officers didn't know.

In addition, the Nuoyun Star System incident was a big deal, so Ah Yi and others certainly didn't announce this news, which led to the Kaiyuan fleet's bottom-level officers being somewhat unclear.

And Zhou Qian's words directly let all the officers of the Kaiyuan fleet know the news that Nuoyun was attacked. In an instant, the officers who were sensitive to the war situation immediately understood the situation of the Kaiyuan fleet...

For a time, people were panic-stricken.

Zhou Qian's move was really beyond the expectations of the Kaiyuan high-level.

After all, everyone thought that Zhou Qian came here this time either to grab a few high-level leaders or to fight.

But I didn't expect...

High-end information is actually gathered through such simple inquiries.

Chapter 481: Ah Yi's Incompetent Rage.

And after Zhou Qian carefully felt everyone's expressions and had some understanding of the energy situation of the warships, he had a little understanding of the current situation of the Kaiyuan warship group.

But in order to understand more deeply...

Before Ah Yi and others could think of a rebuttal, Zhou Qian rushed straight towards the Kaiyuan warship group.

In an instant, not only did the commanders of those warship groups not react, but even the Grandmasters who were staring at Zhou Qian didn't react!

As the Grandmaster closest to Zhou Qian was the first to react and rushed towards Zhou Qian, the rest of the Grandmasters also followed one after another.

Facing the blockade and attacks of those artificial Grandmasters, Zhou Qian frowned slightly and forcibly took several attacks and rushed towards the Kaiyuan warship group.
