Chapter 317 308 The Suddenly Appearing Wormhole

After annihilating the first wave of Teizene invasion fleet, Bai Zhongqi did not become any less busy, on the contrary, he now had even more to do.

The expansion of the Star Alliance Universe Army was still necessary, summarization of the war, the next steps for the Star Alliance, the complete transformation of Earth, and the creation of a high-quality new life for over seven billion Earthlings, all these were draining the energy of our exalted Chancellor.

He even found it difficult to find time to spend with his girlfriend, to the extent that even Han Jiaxue began to take on some of Bai Zhongqi's tasks, causing him to feel both apologetic and touched.

Even after a day of work, Bai Zhongqi would enter the Deep Sleep System to do more learning. To avoid disrupting the perception of normal life for those entering deep sleep for learning, sleep cycle settings were implemented within the Deep Sleep System. Although eating and using the bathroom in deep sleep may seem unnecessary, they preserved normal human experiences and cognitions well. If a person was to 'sleep' for eight hours, they would actually spend two days in deep sleep, including one period of genuine rest not in a virtual environment. Coupled with the high-quality sleep before and after the deep sleep, an individual would feel as though they had lived through three days after one sleep in the Deep Sleep System.

This time when Bai Zhongqi entered deep sleep, he prepared to learn about machine language and robotics. However, unlike his normal guide by artificial intelligence, this time Bai Zhongqi seemed to enter a different kind of dream.

In this dream, he felt he was standing on Earth, then a vast hole appeared in the starry sky and countless cavalrymen, riding white horses and clad in white robes, with silver helmets adorned with silver plumes, swept across the sky. The dream shifted, and he found himself in the universe; with a wave of his hand, thousands of warships behind him opened fire, striking the enemies arrayed in three positions opposite him. As the dream continued, he felt standing on a high tower, receiving the worship of countless people.

Just as he was feeling somewhat elated, a sensation of weightlessness suddenly appeared in the dream. He fell from the high tower, and as he fell, he looked up to see the edge of the tower, where a blurry figure seemed to be looking down.

The sensation of falling was like plummeting into a boundless abyss; everything around him rapidly blurred and then turned black, and Bai Zhongqi began to feel afraid but found no way to stop it all. When the fall finally stopped, Bai Zhongqi felt himself rising from a sea of magma and fire, and to his horror, he seemed to have turned into a huge butterfly with incredibly beautiful wings.

The giant butterfly flew into space but was then attacked by countless starships and monsters. When Bai Zhongqi again felt fear, he had already woken up.

"This... truly a strange dream," Bai Zhongqi touched the back of his head. Ever since he started using the Deep Sleep System, he had lost the sensation of normal dreaming. This dream, however, piqued his curiosity.

He turned to look at the sleep monitor, which showed that he had not successfully entered deep sleep at all; half the night had already passed, and what he seemed to have experienced was a normal dream.

As he hesitated between continuing to sleep and trying to enter deep sleep again, suddenly, a warning alarm came from Zero.

"Your Majesty, there is terrible news. Near the Sun, we have detected a strong spatial disturbance, which we judge to be a precursor to a space jump. Someone is about to enter our Solar System!"

Bai Zhongqi snapped awake from his grogginess. He jumped off the bed, grabbed his clothes to throw on, and walked out of the bedroom.

"What's the situation exactly?"

Zero stood outside the door, his expression grave, and said, "This is a signal we have just detected. Whoever they are, they should be arriving soon."

Bai Zhongqi's breathing quickened, but he quickly calmed himself. He was always able to compose himself swiftly. He asked, "Could it possibly be the Teizene?"

Zero responded, "I think it's unlikely. Even for high-level civilizations, spatial jumping is a difficult technology to master, and even the Borke Civilization, which has conducted technology exchanges with the Tezene, does not possess this capability."

Bai Zhongqi frowned, "Then, besides them, who else would have the coordinates within the Danlu Interstellar Cloud?"

"Could it be that they think they can't defeat us, so they sold our coordinates to a high-level civilization?"

"We can't rule out that possibility," Bai Zhongqi knew that if that were the case, then the Star Alliance would be in big trouble. If a high-level civilization capable of spatial jumping came to the Danlu Interstellar Cloud, the Star Alliance might truly have no power to resist.

The screen beside him popped up with Xiao Yu, who had not yet officially taken office as the Commander of the Universe Army. Bai Zhongqi used to see a portrait of how beautiful a young girl was, and now it had been replaced with a not-so-handsome middle-aged man, which he found somewhat unaccustomed to.

Xiao Yu was very professional, "Your Majesty, spatial jumping has already appeared around the Solar System, and our reconnaissance forces have sent back related imagery."

Bai Zhongqi immediately looked at another picture window beside Xiao Yu. What he saw was not any sort of spatial jumping, but a huge, silver-white hole.

"It's actually a wormhole?" Zero also caught on.

Bai Zhongqi paid close attention to everything happening in the wormhole, only to see a fleet of elegantly shaped, silver-white warships, each exuding an air of mystery and nobility, like a procession of unicorns, sailing through the wormhole one by one.

After watching for a minute, Bai Zhongqi felt his scalp tingle because, in this one minute, this gigantic wormhole with a radius that might span thousands of kilometers had not stopped spewing out those silver-white, mysterious warships for even a moment. The number of warships parked outside the wormhole, on the side toward the Sun, had already exceeded five hundred, and more were steadily arriving on this side.

Zero also realized the problem and looked to Bai Zhongqi, "Your Majesty, should we take action? If we allow these warships to continue to come to the Solar System, then it is likely we will be outnumbered."

At this moment, Xiao Yu let out an exclamation; pointing at the silver-white warships on the screen, he shouted, "This... This is the Three-way Lightning? Could these be the warships of the Iridium Star United Empire? Impossible, Iridium Star has never built warships of this design before. You can tell by the technology that this is a civilization that has taken a completely different technological path from ours. But what's with the Three-way Lightning?"

Finally, Bai Zhongqi saw the sides of these warships, which, without exception, were painted with a three-way lightning mark. This was not something slightly similar to Iridium Star's Three-way Lightning; it was the exact same Three-way Lightning in every angle and detail.

Bai Zhongqi covertly tested; his Supreme Command couldn't control these fleets.

When the wormhole finally closed, and all the silver warships had come out, Zero obtained the exact number of these warships—2,385, a complete and vast fleet with various types of ships for different purposes.

Who were they, and what was their connection to Iridium Star?
