Protagonist:

Lin En

Lena

Hearing this news.

Dominic let out a long breath.

His nerves, which had been taut the whole time, finally relaxed.

Lianggenna was dead.

This brief nightmare, which had nonetheless inflicted no small torment on both his mind and body, was finally over.

He raised his head and looked out the bridge window.

In the pitch-black space, the human fleet's warships still blinked with lights.

Although the Anna had been seized, the Green Skin main fleet was still closing in on the Kal II Star System.

The war was far from over.

But at least, they had won the first phase of victory.

Dominic took a deep breath and straightened his back.

He walked to the central console on the bridge.

All the officers and soldiers stopped what they were doing and quietly watched him.

Their eyes were full of admiration and trust.

This young Major General, at the most critical moment, had not retreated, had not given up.

With his own courage and persistence, he had led them to win this difficult battle.

Dominic scanned the circle, and spoke in a loud and determined voice:

"Soldiers! I am Dominic Wenturia!"

"I now declare, I am safe! The James Tong is safe!"

"The Green-skinned Warlord Big Stomach Liang Ge Na has been eliminated by us!"

"But the war is not over; the Green Skin main fleet is still charging!"

"The Empire's territory still awaits our protection!"

"I order! All troops, maintain battle formation!"

"Prepare to meet the enemy's impact!"

"For the Emperor!"

"For Humanity!"

"For the Emperor!!!"

"For Humanity!!!"

Upon hearing the news that Dominic was safe, the soldiers all cheered.

The originally low morale was instantly ignited.

On every face, fighting spirit flared anew.

Dominic looked at these loyal soldiers before him, his gaze becoming incomparably determined.

He would never let anyone make a meaningless sacrifice again.

He would use his own strength to protect this fleet well.

To protect well everything he bore.

Just as Dominic rallied once more.

In a concealed maintenance passage aboard the James Tong.

Lin En was advancing rapidly.

He had to leave the James Tong and head for Kal II.

The Green Skin main fleet would arrive there in less than half an hour.

He had to complete combat preparations before then.

Just at this moment.

A cold system prompt suddenly rang out in his mind.

【Ding! System detected Binding Target Two (Sorin Vimlot) status update.】

【New capturable target added】

【Capture Reward: Random Tyranid Gene Fragment ×1, Spiritual Power Affinity +5%, Physical Quality +20%】

Lin En's footsteps fiercely halted.

An extremely rare look of astonishment appeared on his face.

"?"

He doubted whether he had misheard.

The system added a capturable target?

And it's Sorin's capturable target?

Making him manipulate his own binding target to capture another person?

Isn't this making him cuckold himself?!

The corner of Lin En's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

He had always thought this system was just an ordinary capture system.

He hadn't expected it to have such a bizarre fetish.

However......

Lin En stroked his chin.

He didn't have that kind of intention toward Sorin to begin with.

The system having her capture someone else and still gaining rewards didn't seem bad either.

Lin En shrugged indifferently.

He opened the system interface, wanting to see this new capture target.

When he saw the name on the interface clearly.

Lin En's pupils instantly dilated.

【Dominic Wenturia】

These words appeared prominently at the very center of the system interface.

Beside them was a photo of Dominic in military uniform.

The Dominic in the photo was young and handsome, with determined eyes, full of a noble's pride and a soldier's fortitude.

Lin En: "..."

His current mood was very complex.

He had just been saying in his heart that having Sorin capture someone else wasn't bad.

As a result, the system pulled this on him.

Having Sorin capture Dominic?

Lin En pressed his forehead.

He suddenly felt this system's bad taste wasn't bad either.

Cold subspace airflow brushed past the shuttlecraft's porthole, condensing a thin layer of frost flowers on the glass.

Lin En leaned against the seat, the surface of his purple bio-armour glowing with a faint gloss.

He propped his head with one hand, his mind sorting through the upcoming battle plan.

The Green Skin main fleet would arrive at Kal II Space Station in less than twenty minutes.

The human fleet's current advantage relied largely on using Kal II as a shield.

If Kal II was occupied by the Green Skins, they would lose their greatest terrain advantage.

Although the James Tong had resolved its crisis, once it lost Kal II's protection, the situation would be uncertain.

"Insect swarm probes deployed, synchronizing and transmitting Green Skin fleet real-time data." Lena's clear and cold voice entered Lin En's mind through the mental link.

During the fierce battle between humans and Green Skins, Lena's swarm hadn't been idle either.

She dispatched large quantities of the bug race to attach to space-floating meteorites and debris; when the Green Skin fleet passed these places.

The bugs would seize the opportunity to collect information or climb onto ships.

Every detail of the entire battlefield was clearly presented in Lin En's consciousness under this no-dead-angle monitoring.

"Very good." Lin En responded in his heart.

"Focus monitoring on the Green Skin fleet's command system and formation changes."

"Lianggenna is dead, their waaagh field should have already collapsed; large-scale chaos and internal strife will follow."

"We can utilize this opportunity to focus fire on their vanguard troops."

This is a characteristic engraved in the Green Skins' genes.

When a powerful warboss dies, the waaagh field supporting the entire tribe collapses instantly.

Green Skins who lost their spiritual leader and power bonus immediately fall into chaos, various large and small chieftains killing each other to vie for the new big boss position.

The originally unified fleet fragments, turning into scattered sand.

This is also why humans fighting Green Skins always like to use decapitation tactics.

Lin En firmly believed this.

He and Lena had personally annihilated Lianggenna completely, not leaving a single gene fragment.

No organism could survive under such a terrifying spirit energy collapse, let alone a Green Skin.

However, when the data transmitted back by the insect swarm probes appeared in Lin En's consciousness.

His brow furrowed sharply.

On the map in his consciousness, red light points representing the Green Skin fleet were dense and numerous, like a sky-covering locust plague.

As Lin En predicted, at the moment of Lianggenna's death, the entire Green Skin fleet did indeed experience brief chaos.

Many warships deviated from course, some ships even opening fire on each other.

Yellow light points representing internal strife flashed continuously on the star map.

But this chaos lasted only less than ten minutes.

Ten minutes later, all yellow light points completely disappeared.

The originally scattered Green Skin fleet actually reorganized into battle formation.

Dozens of cruisers and escort ships at the very vanguard were charging toward Kal II Space Station at maximum speed.

The following main fleet was also following in an orderly manner.

No large-scale retreat, no sustained internal strife.

Everything was orderly, as if Lianggenna's death had caused them no influence at all.

"Something's wrong."
