Chapter 297: Data Delivered

Bitten Empire, Imperial Capital Star.

This light-particle giant city floating above the nebula, after undergoing the baptism of the decades-long proxy war with the Kelo Empire, not only did not show the slightest decline, but instead appeared even more magnificent and splendid.

Countless Bitten people composed of pure light particles moved gracefully through it.

Their lives, as always, were precise; as always, they were perfect.

They seemed utterly indifferent to the war outside that engulfed the entire Milky Way Galaxy.

However, in the core region of Imperial Capital Star, inside Emperor Biegel's magnificent palace, the atmosphere was far from as calm as it appeared on the surface.

Emperor Biegel sat on his throne, gazing at the holographic star map before him.

On the star map, at the border between the Kelo Empire and the Bitten Empire, war fires raged, a scene of chaos.

His face showed no expression.

But deep within his calm consciousness core lay a torrent of anger and a trace of anxiety that even he himself refused to admit.

The Kelo Empire's recent actions have become increasingly insane.

They not only fought the mysterious Zeta Civilization to a stalemate on the western frontier,

Moreover, on the eastern frontier, they launched wave after wave of all-out offensives against the Bitten Empire's defenses.

This left him puzzled.

What on earth is that mad Kelo emperor thinking?

He couldn't possibly not know that such an intense war of attrition brings him no benefit whatsoever.

Could he be hiding something?

Biegel's thought core raced wildly, trying to find a hint of logic hidden beneath the chaos in the Kelo Empire's disordered actions.

At that moment, the 'seed' he had planted in the Kelo Empire's intelligence system transmitted an encrypted report.

The report's contents caused Biegel's pupils to contract sharply.

"Singularity generator... black hole... destruction..."

Several key words in the report set off alarm bells in Biegel's consciousness core instantly!

Black Hole Project!

That which exists only in the two empires' most top-secret files, once activated, means mutual annihilation—the ultimate war contingency!

The Kelo Empire is actually researching this forbidden weapon?!

Biegel's body shot up from his throne, and a terrifying surge of energy exploded from his body!

His ten-thousand-year unchanging calm was shattered completely at this moment!

"Kelo Emperor! You madman!"

He let out a roar capable of shaking the entire palace.

"Do you really intend to destroy the entire Milky Way Galaxy?!"

He immediately issued an order, mobilizing the empire's finest spy network, sparing no expense, to gather more information on the "Black Hole Project".

At the same time, he issued the highest-level combat readiness order to all of the empire's honor legions.

A ultimate battle for the survival of civilization is already brewing.

……

Yanhuang Civilization, Supreme Command Center.

Qin Hao had completed the final preparations.

He wore a set of gray battle armor made of liquid metal, standing silently in the center of the transmission chamber.

Before him were Luo Lao, Zhang Yunfeng, Zhou Shaoqing, Kong Jie, and Mao Xinyang.

Every face was filled with worry and reluctance.

"Xiao Qin, be careful in everything."

Luo Lao's voice carried a hint of gravity: "We'll be waiting here for your return."

"Don't worry, I'll be fine."

Qin Hao smiled, his smile full of confidence.

"I'm off."

The next second, the transmission device activated.

Qin Hao's figure instantly vanished into a mass of twisting light and shadow.

He did not board any spacecraft; instead, he directly used the system's "Concept Creation" ability to construct, on the outskirts of the Bitten Empire's Imperial Capital Star, a microscopic spatial anchor that no detector could detect.

Then, through that spatial anchor, he performed a short-range dimensional jump, silently and soundlessly, appearing at the edge of Imperial Capital Star.

Here lies the core territory of the Bitten Empire.

As far as the eye could see, it was a vast and perfect city composed of countless light particles.

Countless Bitten people moved gracefully through it.

Every action and every thought of theirs was filled with rationality and precision.

Qin Hao restrained all his aura, completely blending himself into the surrounding environment.

He moved like a true ghost, shuttling through this light-particle megacity.

His powerful mental force instantly blanketed the entire Imperial Capital Star.

He could clearly sense the thought fluctuations of every Bitten person in the city.

He could sense that beneath those flawless surfaces lay an extreme pursuit of efficiency and order.

He knew this place was a paradise of order and a tomb of thought.

His target was the core region of Imperial Capital Star, Emperor Biegel's magnificent palace.

That palace was enveloped by countless defense systems—spatial barriers, energy fields, dimensional labyrinths……

Any external lifeform attempting to forcibly intrude will, in an instant, be decomposed and annihilated.

But Qin Hao had his own way.

He did not attempt to break through those defense systems.

Instead, through the system, he constructed a micro and inconspicuous 'information node' within the spatial communication network of the Bitain Empire.

Then,

He took the fragmentary data about the 'Black Hole Project' obtained from 'Hope',

and his own deduced data on the core technology of the singularity generator, in an extremely special and untraceable manner, were uploaded into the central database of the Bitain Empire.

These data appeared to be a segment of top-secret communication accidentally intercepted from the Keluo Empire.

They are incomplete, not direct.

They are more like a puzzle that needs to be pieced together.

And Qin Hao believed that, with the Bitain Empire's technological strength and intelligence analysis capabilities, they would inevitably piece together this puzzle.

Qin Hao left no trace.

After completing all of this, he once again left the Imperial Capital Star via a dimensional jump, silently and without a sound.

Then, he swiftly returned to the territory of the Yanhuang Civilization along the route he had come.

He believed that the Bitain Empire would henceforth have no energy left to pay attention to this 'virus source' of theirs.

Bitain Empire, Imperial Capital Star.

Emperor Jiali was sitting on his throne, anxiously awaiting the latest report from the Empire's intelligence system.

His expression was unprecedentedly grave.

The news of the 'Black Hole Project' made him feel as if sitting on pins and needles.

If this project is true, then the perfect empire he maintains will face an unprecedented crisis.

Just then, an intelligence councilor rushed into the palace in a flustered state.

"Your Majesty! A major discovery!"

He presented an emergency report before Emperor Jiali.
