Chapter 81
"Ahhhhhhh!!!" Silver Wolf let out a sharp, explosive shriek: "That's the seventh time! The seventh time! Is this guy a monster?!"
"Silver Wolf, what's wrong with you lately?" Sam, standing in the corner, looked at Silver Wolf and asked.
"It's a grand strategy simulation game where every player can control a civilization, starting from their home planet to build their own interstellar empire."
Silver Wolf put down her phone, sighed, and said:
"The civilization mastered by every player requires a long period of development before it can form combat power and dominate a region on the map."
"Destroying an established civilization is a quite difficult task."
"But just a short while ago, a new player named 'Zhou Xuan' suddenly joined the game."
"With an almost crushing posture, he destroyed over ninety percent of the civilizations in the game within seven days."
"I've restarted seven times, and every time I was taken out by him in seconds."
Silver Wolf couldn't help but grit her teeth as she said:
"This person's strategy is too cunning; he actually deliberately exposed a flaw to lure me into gathering all my forces to counterattack him."
"As a result, his main fleet had long since secretly bypassed my border and launched an attack from my rear left."
"He easily pierced through my undefended border and went straight into my core star sector."
"How could I let him have his way? I turned my ships around to defend the home base."
"I didn't expect him to have hidden a fleet, launching an attack while I was turning my ships around."
"This fleet wasn't enough to defeat my main fleet, but he relied on constant guerrilla maneuvers between star systems to keep harassing my fleet."
"This made my fleet unable to bear the worry, and our movement speed became slow."
"Then his main fleet also turned back at this moment, and I was wiped out in a pincer attack!!!"
Silver Wolf fiercely hammered the table beneath her,
"Without my fleet, I was annexed by him after he combined his forces."
"I was careless; I fell for it the moment I gathered my entire army."
"If I didn't turn back, he would have raided my home planet."
"If I did turn back, I would fall into a pincer attack."
"He had calculated everything!!!"
Silver Wolf swung a few punches fiercely at the air:
"How is he so proficient? Could this guy really be an interstellar empire ruler?"
Listening to Silver Wolf's words, Sam was silent for a moment before asking: "A very seasoned fleet command strategy."
"Could it be that he is a veteran strategist in reality?"
"That's impossible; I've never heard of the name Zhou Xuan in the star system."
Silver Wolf frowned and said:
"Hey, his IP address is public... Jarilo-VI?"
"Why is it that desolate winter star?"
"It just so happens there's still some time before the next mission."
Sam looked at Silver Wolf and said:
"How about we go to Jarilo-VI and take a look? Pay a visit to this Mr. Zhou Xuan?"
"Perhaps he is a hidden, unconventional strategist?"

"What the hell is this situation?"
Topaz looked at the scene before her in a daze, unable to help but hug Numby in her arms tightly.
"Numby, why don't you give me a slap to wake me up?"
"We aren't dreaming, right??"
"Wuh-humph!!" Numby in Topaz's arms wrinkled its nose, indicating that it was also very confused.
Topaz felt that the scene before her,
was simply too far beyond her cognition,
it was as baffling as an elementary school student having a smart robot from the future living in their home, a middle school student's science competition project being "On the Weaponization Scheme of Imaginary Collapse Phenomena," or a vocational school student ranking at the top of a prestigious academy's mathematics competition.
Topaz felt that if she told her colleagues about this scene, no one would believe her.
On Jarilo-VI, above this cold and backward winter planet,
above this planet covered in frost, a massive starship was floating,
Topaz felt that "massive" was not enough to describe this starship; it should be described as "magnificent,"
the starship floating in the orbit of Jarilo-VI was even larger than Jarilo-VI itself,
shaped like a spike piercing through the Great Void, a spear spanning across the stars,
slender, streamlined, and exquisitely beautiful, rich in a unique divinity, making one look upon it with awe,
what made Topaz's eyes widen the most was that the tail of this starship was not a common power engine,
but a deep black hole, slowly rotating at the tail of the starship.
Topaz was skilled in investment, debt collection, and negotiation, and her knowledge of technology could only be considered superficial,
but even so, she could see what astonishing technology was contained within these 22 starships,
at least among the starships built by the IPC, there was none more magnificent than this.
Topaz couldn't help but compare this starship with the six Luofu Xianzhou of the Xianzhou Alliance,
she even felt that this starship was even more shocking and heart-stopping than the Xianzhou,
Topaz's expression couldn't help but turn strange,
on a backward planet, a pinnacle-advanced magnificent ship was floating,
this scene was simply too bizarre!
"This... this..."
"It couldn't be that in the few hundred years Jarilo-VI was sealed, their technology had an explosion, right?!"
This possibility couldn't help but surface in Topaz's mind,
could it be that she hadn't come to collect debts from a backward civilization, but from a lost, extremely advanced civilization?
Topaz hurriedly shook her head, driving this outrageous thought away,
if Jarilo-VI's technology were truly advanced enough to build such a magnificent ship,
they wouldn't have been trapped by the Stellaron on a planet with surging cold waves,
"An extremely advanced civilization visited Jarilo-VI?"
"Which force in the universe is it? Why would they be interested in such a small, backward planet?"
Many possibilities surfaced in Topaz's mind.
Just then, an IPC employee walked up quickly and asked:
"Director Topaz, are we still going to perform a stealth landing?"
Topaz's eye twitched, and she turned her head to ask: "Stealth landing? Why a stealth landing?"
"Didn't you say you were worried our ecological ship would scare the local residents?" the employee said timidly.
Topaz's eye twitched again, and she reached out, pointing to the magnificent ship floating above Jarilo-VI and said:
"Is that starship scary?"
"Little Yelena's message?"
Jade looked at the message popping up on her phone and raised her eyebrows slightly.
Little Yelena—that is, Topaz,
her mission this time was merely to collect debts from a small, backward planet,
such a simple and easy job, Topaz had completed at least a hundred times,
how could she send a message to her because of this little thing?
"Could it be that she discovered some cute, rare little animal again and couldn't help but share it with me?"
A smile curled at the corner of Jade's mouth,
"So impatient?"
Jade reached out, clicked on Topaz's message, and then the smile at the corner of her mouth stiffened. ===== CHAPTER 82 =====
