Lena Dahan raised her head and glanced at the direction where the light beam had vanished; a flicker of puzzlement flashed through her ice-cold eyes.
She could sense that the light beam carried Sis's last fragment of consciousness, flying toward some destination.
But she did not pay it much heed.
After all, it was just a dead man; he could not stir up any waves.
She had more important matters to attend to.
As the Bug Swarm's Shadow dispersed, the Green Skins' illusions also disappeared.
Yet when they looked at Lena Dahan again, an uproar erupted throughout the entire Core Area.
That psychic collision just now had completely shattered the concealment the Fire Shadow Clan's Waaagh Force Field had provided Lena Dahan.
The Green Skins on the scene finally saw the true face of this "Yi Yi Yi Da Han God Envoy."
She was no longer the massive dark-green lizard in their eyes — imposing, capable of granting them speed and invisibility.
Instead, she was a hideous, terrifying blue-white Bug Race monster standing five meters tall.
Her entire body was covered in heavy, ultra-dense chitinous Armor; her head bore a pair of insect compound eyes flashing with cold blue light.
On her forelimbs, the pair of meter-long keen blades still dripped with Sis's green blood.
A deathly silence lasted a full five seconds.
Then, emotions erupted like a volcano; roars of anger and despair instantly swept across the entire Core Area.
"No... impossible, this can't be real!"
"Yi Yi Yi Da Han God Envoy, how could you be a bug?!"
"We've been deceived; we've been worshipping a filthy bug all along!!!"
The Fire Shadow Clan's Grots reacted most violently.
They were Lena Dahan's most devout believers; some Grots even prayed before Lena's statue every day.
They kept the slogan "Mess Up the God Envoy" on their lips; to defend the "Yi Yi Yi Da Han God Envoy's" glory, they would fight to the death against members of other clans.
But now they discovered that the God Envoy they had always worshipped was actually a bug.
This blow of faith collapsing was more lethal than any weapon.
Countless people threw down the weapons engraved with the "Yi Yi Yi Da Han" seal and trampled them fiercely underfoot.
They roared angrily at Lena Dahan, their eyes bloodshot.
The despair of betrayal quickly transformed into torrential rage demanding revenge.
"Kill this bug, avenge Big Boss One-Hit-Seven and Big Boss Sis!"
"Tear her apart, cut off her flesh and feed it to the Squigs, waaagh!"
The surviving Green Skins of the Sis Camp were quickly rallied by Yaduoduo into a chaotic but numerous army.
Yaduoduo rode on the back of a Battle Squig, looking at the blue-white Bug Race monster ahead with a complex gaze.
In his arms he held the Rocket "Big Boom Boom" that had brought him fortune.
Yaduoduo naturally knew that Lena Dahan and Big Boss One-Hit-Seven definitely had intricate connections.
But he also knew that with these Green Skins, they simply could not possibly harm Lena Dahan in the slightest.
So no matter how they attacked, Lena Dahan would be fine.
And he had no choice but to step forward.
Right now, the entire camp's hatred was focused on this bug.
If he did not step out to lead everyone in revenge, his prestige and status would be cast aside by the enraged Grots.
He had to stabilize the situation and lead the remaining Grots to attack Lena Dahan.
"Grots!" Yaduoduo fired a cannon shot as a signal, shouting with all his might.
"This bug deceived us, used us, and caused the deaths of Big Boss One-Hit-Seven and Big Boss Sis!"
"Now, take up your weapons and charge with me!"
"Kill this bug, avenge the Big Bosses!"
"Waaaaagh!!!"
The other Green Skins simultaneously let out roars filled with fury.
They brandished all manner of weapons and launched a charge at Lena Dahan.
Just as the Green Skin Army was about to reach Lena Dahan.
Boom—!!!
Deafening cannon fire suddenly rang out from the Core Area's Entrance.
The sound was so dense, so fierce, it seemed intent on blasting the entire Core Area into the sky.
Wave after wave of fierce cannon fire, like a torrential downpour, precisely blanketed the area where the Green Skin Army stood.
High-explosive Shells detonated in the crowd, blasting dozens of Green Skins into the air at once.
Tiberium Combustion Shells ignited raging fires, burning Green Skins into human torches one by one.
Bomb Guns penetrated the Goff Clan's heavy armor, turning their bodies into sieves.
Flesh and shattered bones danced through the air under the incessant pouring of cannon fire.
"It's the Shrimp fleet!"
"Bad news, more Shrimp have broken in!"
The Green Skins instantly fell into chaos.
They halted their charging footsteps, looking toward the Core Area entrance in panic.
Only to see a steel torrent rolling in at the Core Area entrance.
One Leman Russ Tank after another formed neat horizontal ranks, cannon mouths spitting rays of death.
Chimera Armored Vehicles carrying Star Realm Army soldiers advanced while sweeping with Heavy Explosive Guns.
Hellhound Flamethrower Tanks spewed fire tongues tens of meters long, burning Green Skins hiding in the ruins into charcoal.
In the sky, Valkyrie Transport Aircraft howled past, onboard laser cannons continuously sweeping, mowing down swathes of Green Skins on the ground.
Outside, drop pods fell like raindrops, well-equipped Pioneer Army Elites charging out of the pods.
They were all veterans of the Brevis Wall; fighting Green Skins was as routine as breathing to them.
Lin En's Purification Expeditionary Fleet had finally arrived.
At this critical juncture where Luna was defeated and retreated, Beastmen were in full-scale civil war, Sith was dead, and Chandler had completely lost control.
Lin En descended upon the Karl No. 2 Core Area battlefield in peak form.
The Expeditionary Force's senior generals were only Lin En and Gus, two people.
The remaining Noble officers were all "graciously permitted" by Lin En to stay aboard the Peak Obsidian in the far rear, commanding remotely.
For those nobles who cherished their lives like gold, this was a dream come true; they would rather never set foot on this filthy Green Skin space station.
And all frontline junior officers, same as before, were all Genestealers.
They were Lena's most loyal minions, their minds linked with Lin En's, absolutely never leaking any secrets, and absolutely obeying commands.
Now, the entire battlefield consisted of Lin En's "own people."
The Expeditionary Force's cannon fire was precise to a hair-raising degree.
Any Green Skin attempting to approach Lena Dahan would immediately suffer devastating cannon fire strikes.
Yet that massive, hideous Bug Race monster, the Expeditionary Force soldiers acted as if they simply hadn't seen her.
All cannon fire cleverly avoided her, not even a single stray round landing on her body.
Lena Dahan tilted her head slightly, looking at the slowly advancing steel torrent, a trace of gentleness revealing itself in her cold vertical pupils.
She knew that as long as she dealt with that Chandler still circling in the center of the hall, this farce on Karl No. 2 would be thoroughly over.
And the Expeditionary Force's role was to clear all obstacles for her, letting her focus on handling that final trouble.
