Warlords: I just made a little fortune, but I didn’t build a country.

In the vast abyss of the universe, the twenty space fleets of the Novak clan were like steel behemoths from another world, cutting through the galaxy and advancing towards Qinwu Star with great momentum.

These twenty fleets, a steel torrent consisting of more than 2000 space warships, each warship flashes with a cold and strange light, the hull is covered with complex and mysterious patterns, and it exudes a heart-pounding pressure.

They are the sharp blades of the Novak people's conquest of the universe, carrying the ambitions of foreign races to conquer Qinwu Star and plunder its resources.

The Novak tribe's home planet is located in a distant alien star system, and the star field where the Emperor Star is located is the best way for the Novak tribe to advance to the Qinwu Star.

This vast and boundless space is now filled with their fleet. The dark blue flames ejected from the engines are like the tentacles of a devil, stretching out wantonly in the dark universe. Wherever they pass, the stars seem to dim a little.

However, the Novak people's arrogance did not last long.

When their fleet was halfway across the starry sky and approaching the Emperor Star, a sudden disaster struck.

In the silent universe, the Qinwu Empire had already set an ambush, waiting for its prey. With a command, the hidden energy weapon instantly activated, targeting the Emperor Star.

Tianhuang Star, a massive, inhabited planet, radiates a unique light in the universe. Its vast size, imbued with immeasurable energy, has served as the base of the Eastern Nation for millennia, housing hundreds of millions of its citizens. The rest of the population has been relocated to the Novak Galaxy.

The energy weapon hidden in the dark is the super-weapon black hole projector. The core inside the Emperor Star has been completely hollowed out and filled with hot He, black hole projectors and other weapons.

"boom!"

A dull roar ripped through the cosmic silence, like the roar of an ancient beast. Strange purple lines suddenly appeared on the surface of the planet Tianhuang. This habitable planet, more than three times the diameter of Jupiter, was collapsing inward at a speed visible to the naked eye. The energy bursting from its core was like boiling magma bursting through the earth's crust, instantly igniting the entire planet into a giant nuclear bomb.

A dazzling white light gushed out from the core of the planet. The light was more violent than a supernova explosion and more violent than a gamma-ray burst.

The starry sky within a three-light-year radius was dyed a piercing silver-white, even the stars of distant galaxies dimmed beneath the intense light. Tens of thousands of meteorites were instantly disintegrated into elementary particles the moment the light touched them, transforming into dust drifting through the universe.

At the center of the explosion, a vortex of energy, a million kilometers in diameter, swirled furiously. Deep purple light surged within the vortex, its powerful gravitational field warping the surrounding spacetime, engulfing passing asteroids, comets, and even entire nebulae. Dazzling arcs of electricity occasionally erupted from the vortex's edges, each one containing enough energy to destroy an entire planet.

The Novak fleet was caught in the first wave of the explosion. The once neatly arranged battleship array collapsed the instant the shockwave struck. Their vaunted quantum shields, like thin paper, were instantly shredded by this terrifying energy. Thousands of warships, torn apart by the shockwave, tumbled uncontrollably like leaves swept by a gust of wind.

"Alarm! Shield energy reaches zero!"

"Gravitational field disturbance! Engine failure!"

Inside the Novak command cabin, shrill alarms rang out one after another. The soldiers stared out the portholes in horror as the warships they had once believed to be indestructible were being torn to pieces before their eyes.

Some warships were directly cut in half by the shock wave, with hot plasma jets spurting out of the broken parts; others were squeezed into twisted metal balls by the powerful gravitational field, and their internal life support systems collapsed instantly.

The intense heat raged across the universe like an invisible flame. The titanium alloy hull of the Novak warship melted rapidly under the intense heat, the flowing metal forming strange spherical shapes in the weightless environment.

Inside the battleship, delicate electronic equipment smoked and caught fire in the intense heat, and explosions caused by short circuits echoed one after another. Many soldiers were vaporized by the intense heat before they could even utter a final cry, leaving only human-shaped scorch marks on the bulkheads.

In this catastrophe, over 600 Novak warships were completely destroyed. Those that survived were also mostly scarred, with cracks of varying sizes dotting their hulls. Air and fuel continuously gushed out of the cracks, forming flickering streaks of light in space.

Preliminary estimates indicate that the explosion caused economic losses to the Novak people exceeding 300 billion credit points.

This figure is equivalent to the total fiscal revenue of the Novak people for three years.

As the light of the explosion faded, thick smoke and dust filled the universe. Before the survivors of the Novak tribe could recover from their shock and terror, the ten fleets of the Qinwu Empire's Eastern Theater appeared before their eyes like ghosts.

The ten major fleets are powerful and magnificent.

The 10 Pangu-5000 aerospace fortresses with a tonnage of more than million tons are like a giant steel city floating in the universe.

Their hulls were immense, equipped with the most advanced weapon systems and defensive devices. The fortress's surface was densely packed with various energy turrets, each emitting a deadly aura. Countless small fighters patrolled the perimeter of the hull, forming an impenetrable line of defense.

Twenty Jiaolong aerospace fortresses, each with a tonnage exceeding 20 million tons, followed closely behind. Their designs were more flexible and faster. Jiaolong aerospace fortresses excelled at rapid raids and maneuverable operations, their hulls equipped with plasma cutters and electromagnetic railguns capable of tearing apart enemy warships in an instant.

In addition to these giant aerospace fortresses, there is also an auxiliary fleet consisting of 500 space warships. They surround the aerospace fortresses like a pack of wolves, ready to attack the enemy at any time.

The Novak fleet was severely damaged at this moment, and they seemed to be unable to cope with the hunting of the ten major fleets in the eastern theater of the Qinwu Empire.

But the Novaks are a powerful race in the universe after all. They quickly adjusted their formation and regrouped the remaining warships, preparing for a life-and-death battle with the Qinwu Empire.

The commander of the Qinwu Empire stood in the command room of the flagship, his gaze fixed firmly on the enemy ahead. At his command, the weapon systems of the ten fleets activated, their energy cannons flashing with dazzling light. Countless energy beams, like meteors, pierced the darkness of space and poured down upon the Novak fleet.

The Novak fleet was not to be outdone. They activated their shields and fired back artillery fire.

In the universe, the artillery fire of both sides intertwined, forming a brilliant yet deadly sea of fire. Warships exploded one after another, and dazzling light flashed continuously, illuminating the entire starry sky.
