Chapter 583: Investigation Team (Part 2)

_______________________________________________________________
Fang Yun has ordered them to not disturb him when he is evolving, but after acquiring such critical information, Nebula felt that it’s necessary to report to lord Ouroboros.
Soon, he reached Fang Yun’s territory with the information they got.
“Master Ouroboros.”
?Nebula looked at the serpent that was a mere ten meters in front of him with a little nervousness. From a size perspective, this serpent is completely unworthy of his attention.
There are even many serpents a hundredfold bigger in the zoo of his home planet.
However, Nebula didn’t dare to take any disrespectful thoughts. Although he is a star-level powerhouse now, he still felt like a frog facing the ocean in front of Fang Yun.
In fact, the pressure is stronger than before.
Just standing in front of Fang Yun caused his body to unconsciously shiver. This is a biological instinct. Just like a child in front of a big tiger. Even if the tiger doesn’t have the intention to harm him, the child would still be terrified.
“Master Ouroboros’s growth during the past three years is beyond my imagination.”
Nebula swallowed his saliva, forcibly restrained the fear in his heart, and said.
“Master Ouroboros, I have something important to report.”
Fang Yun stared at Nebula and asked,
“What’s the matter? Could it be that the ancient universe outside has sent another fleet to invade us?”
“No.” Nebula shook He shook his head,
“Master Ouroboros, not long ago, we sent a team to the outer universe to scout the situation of the ancient universe.”
“Now, they have finally crossed the distance between the ancient universe and the Metaverse.”
“You mean, that team has already gathered information about the ancient universe?”
Fang Yun became interested. He also wants to know what the situation of the ancient universe is like.
“Yes.”
Nebula nodded, “This is the image and video data they sent back.”
After saying this, he tapped lightly on his watch, causing a projection screen to appear in front of him. The screen is 3 meters wide and 2 meters tall.
Many images appeared on half of the screen and a video played on the other half. On which was the defensive line and outer planets the Wang expedition team captured.
Fang Yun fell deep into his thoughts after seeing these images.
“It seems that the team has only wandered around the outermost area.”
Fang Yun thought internally,
“This is also normal. With their strength, being able to reach that place can be considered phenomenal, However, that defensive line is probably not the only defensive line of the ancient universe…”
“There are likely different numbers of defensive lines in different areas of the ancient universe.”
“In addition, how big is the ancient universe, and what is its division of forces? We are still not clear. Someone needs to sneak into the ancient universe, blend with its aboriginal inhabitants and gather internal information.”
Thinking of this, Fang Yun nodded to Nebula,
“These seven people did a good job. If they return safely in the end, reward each one of them with 1 million high-energy stones.”
This amount of energy stones is enough for a low-talent mortal to cultivate straight to the God of war level.
“If they can’t come back, send this reward to their families. In addition, their descendants will be protected by the Alliance for a hundred years. If their descendants are bullied, the Alliance will severely punish the perpetrators.”
“Yes.” Nebula saluted solemnly.
After pondering for a moment, Fang Yun opened his mouth again.
“Yes, one more thing, build a space city at the center of the Kapor Star Belt. Prepare to march towards the ancient universe. We can’t always defend, we must also take the initiative to attack.”
Hearing Fang Yun’s orders, Nebula was shocked. He didn’t expect that Fang Yun had such ambitions. A trace of worry rose in his heart.
The ancient universe is so strong, do they have the power to invade it?
“If we want to further develop, we need more resources, more cultivation techniques, supernatural powers, and martial arts. Without these, our development will greatly slow down. In the end, we will be unable to keep up with the ancient universe”
Fang Yun looked at the worried Nebula and said,
“In this case, it’s better to take the initiative to attack. We must find a way to enter the ancient universe, obtain more techniques and martial skills, and quickly improve ourselves.”
“Of course, I don’t plan to go to war with the ancient universe in the near future. My plan is to send spies to infiltrate the ancient universe and get what we want.”
“Huff…”
Nebula’s heart finally relaxed. He breathed a sigh of relief and said,
“I will follow the orders of the master!”
On the other side, after the Wang expedition team dispersed, they tried all methods to infiltrate the defensive line.
Unfortunately, they weren’t able to succeed yet.
In fact, three ships were discovered by the enemy patrol ship when they tried to cross the defensive line and destroyed by them;
“How can I enter this ancient universe?”
This question rang in leader Wang’s heart. His ship carefully and stealthily flew now far away from the defensive line, trying to find a blind spot in the enemy’s defenses. Unfortunately, the search was unsuccessful so far.
“Ding!”
A mechanical sound suddenly sounded from his headset. In the next moment, he suddenly noticed that a blue dot on the screen in front of him disappeared.
“Another brother died.”
Leader Wang sighed. He couldn’t help but clench his fists. Because the decision to infiltrate the enemy line was made by him. A trace of guilt rose in the depths of his heart as he thought that his teammates died because of him.
However, he did not let this uncomfortable emotion affect him. After calming down his state of mind, he continued to fly around this line of defense, looking for a breakthrough point.
In the next period of time, a few more beeps sounded in his headset. In the end, from the seven-team members, only he survived.
“Haa……”
Rather than succumbing to sadness and giving up, leader Wang became calmer. He knew that now is not the time to feel regret and sadness. The most important thing at the moment is to find a weak point in the defense line.
Only in this way can his teammates’ sacrifice wouldn’t be in vain.
Time passed day by day.
Leader Wang stayed alone in this unfamiliar and lonely place for three months. In the past, the seven of them could at least talk to each other, but now he is alone.
Under this extremely strong sense of loneliness, a weak-willed person would have collapsed a long time ago and escaped.
However, leader Wang was appointed as the captain of the extremely dangerous investigation team for a reason. Although he didn’t have high achievements in the field of cultivation. He is just a god of war level cultivator.
However, his psychological and spiritual resistance to stress is at the top level. He has one of the strongest wills in the entire first heaven.
“Not this… Not this… No…”
Leader Wang muttered. He constantly scanned the map in front of him, carefully examining each starship and each Battlestar, looking for any weak point, no matter how small it is.
As he continued to look at the movement of the defensive line, his eyes suddenly lit up.
“This is it! I found an opportunity!”
