Chapter 776: Second Round of Expansion for the Tree-Dwelling Tribe

Yi Chen had never been to the Hailing Star Cluster.

Therefore, he needed to use a Large Battleship to reach the Hailing Star Cluster first.

The reason for heading to the Hailing Star Cluster was that the Tree-Dwelling Tribe had launched their second round of Expansion Plans.

According to information collected by the Shadow Kings, who were hiding in the Intelligence Organization of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe, the strong teams from the Time Tribe and Reincarnation Tribe decided to seize a batch of Large Battleships and crew members from the human federation once they could no longer invade the federation’s territory during the Tree-Dwelling Tribe’s expansion.

In response, the Tree-Dwelling Tribe simply dispatched one elder and a group of strong fighters, without overly worrying about the situation.

It was because they could not prepare for it at all.

According to the information data, the Time Tribe and Reincarnation Tribe had a total of six elder-level strong fighters and more than twenty level 230 strong fighters.

Such an attack by a strong team was not a big deal in the Tree Star Cluster.

Once the Tree-Dwelling Tribe received the news, they could quickly mobilize dozens or even hundreds of level 240 strong fighters to surround them.

In other star clusters, however, they could not do anything.

The Tree-Dwelling Tribe could not abandon their planned expansion because of this strong team.

Moreover, neither the Time Tribe nor the Reincarnation Tribe knew that the Large Battleships of the human federation had a self-destruct program.

The human federation could remotely control all the Large Battleships to self-destruct.

This meant that, even if the Time Tribe and Reincarnation Tribe managed to control a large number of Large Battleships, it would be of no use.

The human federation could easily cause these Large Battleships to self-destruct and be destroyed.

The Tree-Dwelling Tribe’s reason for dispatching an elder was purely to guard against the possibility of many Large Battleships being controlled and taken over by this team after an attack on the battleship fleet, or even destroyed.

Such an event would result in significant losses of Large Battleships and crew members.

Although the human federation was still rapidly producing Large Battleships and training crew members, they were still far from meeting the Tree-Dwelling Tribe’s requirements.

It was better to minimize losses as much as possible.

With two elders stationed, even if they encountered an attack from this strong team, they could quickly rush over to intercept and provide the Large Battleship fleet with time to retreat.

It was nearly impossible for the Time Tribe and Reincarnation Tribe to seize Large Battleships on a large scale.

It was like when the human federation was still within their star cluster.

The major dominant races of that star cluster also coveted the human federation’s ability to rapidly transport troops over great distances using Large Battleships.

But the only thing they could do was send spies to infiltrate the human federation.

They tried to recruit and control a batch of researchers who could modify Large Battleships, then gather relevant parts and materials to assemble themselves, and crack the human federation’s remote control, preventing them from blowing up these Large Battleships.

Because of this, the major dominant races in that star cluster secretly controlled a number of Large Battleships and crew members.

However, their numbers were far from comparable to the human federation.

Yi Chen traveled all the way to the Hailing Star Cluster to help the Tree-Dwelling Tribe resolve the impact and trouble caused by this team.

This way, the Tree-Dwelling Tribe could expand faster, forcing both the Time Tribe and Reincarnation Tribe to formally ally, triggering a series of chain reactions to prepare the Great Flame Empire for the rapid unification of the super star cluster in the future.

Although the Shadow Kings could now infiltrate key departments of various dominant races to gather important information, they knew nothing about the location of this team.

Therefore, upon reaching the Hailing Star Cluster, Yi Chen could only first infiltrate the army and look for the two elders of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe.

As long as he stayed close to the two elders, Yi Chen could receive immediate news of this strong team’s invasion.

Based on information provided by the Shadow King hiding in the Tree-Dwelling Tribe’s War Department, Yi Chen traveled to the rallying point of the Mo Xi Tribe’s army.

When he arrived, the sky was filled with a dense swarm of Large Battleships.

Over ten million Large Battleships resembled colossal iron beasts, reflecting a stunning glow under the light of the stars.

The vast army continuously transported through a spatial rift to the nearby life planets.

Then, they quickly boarded the Large Battleships from the life planets.

“Lucky timing, I caught the Mo Xi Tribe’s army gathering!”

Yi Chen controlled his flying treasure, weaving through the Large Battleships.

He expanded his divine consciousness, searching for any defensive barriers present on these Large Battleships and assessing their strengths.

With his current level of 220 and impressive divine consciousness strength, he had no concerns.

Even a level 240 Tree-Dwelling Tribe elder would find it difficult to sense his divine consciousness.

Within just ten minutes, Yi Chen discovered a defensive barrier with extremely high strength.

With a thought, his divine consciousness enveloped the flying treasure and instantly entered the barrier.

To his surprise, inside was the command center of the army.

Not just one, but both Tree-Dwelling Tribe elders were present.

In addition, more than ten strong fighters from various tribes at level 230 were also there.

Yi Chen immediately shrank the flying treasure down to the size of a speck of dust and hid in a corner of the defensive barrier.

Then, he activated the Luck Technique to begin absorbing the luck of one of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe elders.

One hour, two hours, three hours…

Although the Mo Xi Tribe’s army had begun gathering months ago, it still took about a day for all the troops to board the Large Battleships.

During this day, Yi Chen successfully drained the luck of both Tree-Dwelling Tribe elders and more than ten level 230 strong fighters.

More accurately, he had extracted their luck to its lowest point.

Yi Chen did not completely deplete their luck; he left a little behind for each person to prevent any unexpected situations arising from complete luck depletion.

He had come to help the Tree-Dwelling Tribe, not to cause trouble.

After the assembly of over fifteen billion Mo Xi Tribe soldiers was officially completed, the Tree-Dwelling Tribe elders issued commands with great enthusiasm.

A vanguard composed of thousands of Large Battleships set out first to scout the way and eliminate various risks.

Once the vanguard confirmed there were no issues, the main army would officially depart and activate the Space Jump System.

On their journey, they encountered no ambushes.

Undoubtedly, even though the Time Tribe and Reincarnation Tribe had cultivated many undercover agents within the Tree-Dwelling Tribe to collect important information, they were still not a match for the Shadow Kings.

The main issue was that the undercover agents from the Time Tribe and Reincarnation Tribe could only reach a maximum level of 220.

In the various departments of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe, this level could place them among the middle and upper ranks and allow them to know many secrets, yet there were still many secrets they could not learn.

Unlike the Shadow Kings, who could directly hide beside the level 230 high-ranking leaders of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe.

Whatever secrets those level 230 high-ranking leaders knew, the Shadow Kings could know too.

Because of this, Yi Chen knew in advance where the Mo Xi Tribe’s army was gathering, while the Time Tribe and Reincarnation Tribe could only discover that the Tree-Dwelling Tribe’s next expansion relied on the Mo Xi Tribe’s army.
