Chapter 1261: 1261
In the picture behind Su Changfa, Wuying Qi's black crystal suit was gradually upgrading . It was becoming ever larger and more spectacular . It was getting more and more hideous too .
The upper half of the helmet protruded like a skull into a thorny crown .
The black arrows that represented Wuying Qi's forces were expanding nonstop, raging inside the Empyrean Terminus Sector .
Countless starships crashed in the space zones nearby . Thousands of Cultivators perished like insects in the winter . The Cultivators tasted the strength of the Immortal Cultivators for the time, and the strength was more invincible that they could have imagined!
The Empyrean Terminus Sector, the capital of the Star Ocean Imperium in the past and the Star Ocean Republic at that time, had fallen into the hands of the Immortal Cultivators!
Although Li Yao was still highly alert, he could not help but feel awed by Wuying Qi's desperate counterattack .
From the punishment field to parliament, and from a prisoner on death row to the first president of the Star Ocean Republic, Wuying Qi's life was truly magnificent and intriguing!
However…
Li Yao thought for a moment and asked suspiciously, "It wasn't enough for Wuying Qi to just control the capital, was it? There were so many other Sectors in the Star Ocean Republic . Did nobody object to him? Most importantly of all, what about the central army, which was supposed to protect the capital as the most elite troop?"
"Fellow Cultivator Li, you are indeed smart," Su Changfa said . "You've noticed the critical question quickly enough!
"Of course, it wasn't enough to just control the capital . The seething local forces needed to be intimidated through thunderous approaches, too! To achieve that, the most important thing was to destroy the central army cleanly and neatly!
"The central army was unaware of the capital falling into Wuying Qi's hands . After a long journey, they finally arrived at the frontier that Wuying Qi had carefully operated on for more than ten years .
"Despite the well-training soldiers, the ample supplies, and the rightfulness, they were unfamiliar with the local environment . They were unaware of the locations of the cosmic storms, the best places for space jumps, the differences in the spiritual and electromagnetic fields, the stars that boasted special spiritual waves that could affect the sailing starships, and so on .
"The universe is too boundless and mysterious . Too many dangerous factors can affect a voyage . Without the navigation of local guides who were familiar with the situation, even the largest starships wouldn't be able to move forward at all .
"Also, they were so arrogant that they did not consider the operation to be a battle mission at all . They were under the illusion that the border defense army and the natives would give up and beg for mercy the moment that they arrived and that they were mainly there to regroup them!
"Most importantly, even the central army had been seriously infiltrated by the Immortal Cultivators of the Salvation Syndicate, who constantly sent valuable intelligence to Wuying Qi's side .
"The conceited central army underestimated both the combat ability of the border defense army and the resistance of the local armies of the vassal worlds! It should be noted that the local magnates had just uprooted the original interest groups under Wuying Qi's support in order for themselves to rise to power . They had all expressed their loyalty with real actions, and the blood on their sabers had not been dried yet . Once the central army won, the previous interest groups would certainly counterattack, and they would die without a burial!
"Therefore, the vassal worlds that had been rather ostensibly complicit with the capital before were in fact quite loyal to Wuying Qi!
"But the central army knew none of it .
"All that they knew about were the false messages that the Immortal Cultivators sent back!
"Misled by the false messages, the central army thought that Wuying Qi's remaining forces had already crumbled and that the border defense army was suffering from internal strife with the troops from the vassal worlds, which had proved loyal enough to join the capital's side again!
"The central army, overjoyed, accepted the 'local armies of the vassal worlds who had returned to the right path' without any wariness . They launched attacks toward the border defense army together . As they expected, the border defense army suffered tremendous losses and fled in panic while leaving a large number of starships behind!
"Hehe . Nobody would feel sorry for the death of the Cultivators who were as greedy as pigs and as stupid as dogs! Wuying Qi's subordinates played the same trick that was played on Karan, but they were fooled without defense again!
"Right when they were taking over the starships left by the border defense army, the crystal bombs that were buried deep inside the starships, together with the arsenals and the engine compartments, exploded all at once, turning the entire space zone into an ocean of fire!
"The broken debris filled the entire sailing route . The elites of the central army were stuck inside, unable to move at all .
"The battlefield was carefully selected by the border defense army and the local troops in the first place . After a certain period, because of the integration and friction of two nebulas, an enormous, highly-intense cosmic storm would be raised here, which was called by the locals as 'Death Wing' . You can tell from the name how dreadful it is!
"The elites of the central army suffered a suicidal explosion first and then got caught in the Death Wing later . It shouldn't be hard to guess their damages .
"When the remnants finally survived the scourge of the Death Wing, the border defense army and the local troops, which appeared to be engaged in a fierce battle earlier, suddenly marched out from the two flanks and gave the most advanced, formidable, and glorious fleet of the Star Ocean Republic a critical attack!
"Right then, Wuying Qi's counterattack in the capital and his actions, including dissolving the parliament, arresting the representatives, and announcing his inauguration as the acting president, were finally delivered to the central army, too .
