Five days later.
In a reception room on Yuan Chen Continent, Virtual Universe.
"This is the mission objective for this operation."
Ender sat cross-legged, a light screen in front of him. He then gently swiped his finger upwards, and the light screen flew to the opposite side.
Across from him was Marquis Jiaosu, a beautiful, slender woman in silver-white battle armor, with a snake-like lower body.
"The Takuer Family in Purple Bee Starfield, an Immortal who has only just become a Marquis-level. Is it worth mobilizing the power of an entire army?"
Marquis Jiaosu looked at the information on the light screen in front of her, the Killing Intent between her brows dissipated a lot, but her doubts increased.
After seeing the end, she finally understood, "Hmm… 80 million people all need to be killed. No wonder it requires mobilizing the power of an entire army."
80 million people is not a small number.
Although 80 million people, distributed across more than 2,000 star Systems in the Purple Bee Starfield, means each star System has less than 40,000 people, it still requires a lot of manpower to kill them all.
"Intelligence from the intelligence department shows that Aba Du, the Pinnacle Marquis-level Immortal, is still on Takuer Star," Ender said. "My idea is, Marquis Jiaosu, the First to Twentieth Armies of your Sixthy-Sixth Army will accompany me to Takuer Star to cooperate with the Gold Horn Race Wolf Team in killing Aba Du."
"The remaining eighty armies, led by Immortals, will kill the World Masters of the Takuer Family, while the rest will be dispersed and led by World Masters to kill the targets in each star System."
Finally, Ender emphasized, "The four World Masters on the list must be captured and sent here for me to kill personally."
"No problem." Marquis Jiaosu nodded lightly after listening, and asked, "Your Highness, when will the operation begin?"
"Eight days later," Ender said. "Once the Gold Horn Race Wolf Team arrives, and we have completed the killing of Aba Du, then the other armies will act."
Marquis Jiaosu listened and also expressed her approval, "I will issue an order for all warriors to maintain Virtual Universe silence until the operation begins, only then will Virtual Universe contact be restored."
The killing of the Marquis-level Immortal must be carried out first, because once the news leaks, he can escape by Divine Kingdom teleportation. Therefore, to kill him, he must be surrounded and killed, without giving him a chance to teleport to his Divine Kingdom.
"Your Highness, maintaining silence before the operation can ensure that no news leaks," Marquis Jiaosu preemptively stated. "However, this might cause the mission to kill 80 million targets to fail."
80 million targets cannot stay in one place forever. Maintaining silence can prevent news from leaking, but it also means that the army warriors will not be able to receive intelligence, thus losing track of the targets.
"Prioritize maintaining silence," Ender replied. He had long planned to abandon the second mission. 80 million targets were too many, and it would be difficult to kill them all.
Seeing Ender say this, Marquis Jiaosu nodded, "Understood."
After chatting briefly with Marquis Jiaosu, the two parted ways. Ender then checked the intelligence on the Gold Horn Race Wolf Team.
The Wolf Team is composed of seven Immortals: one Pinnacle-stage Marquis, one High Stage Marquis-level, two Pinnacle Marquis-level Immortals, and three Pinnacle Stage Military Lord-level Immortals.
"A medium-sized Team can deploy four Marquis-level Immortal. It's hard to say, don't underestimate any existing Race."
Ender knew that the Gold Horn Race had once been prosperous. When the Top-tier Universe Overlord Xi Luo Duo was still alive, the Gold Horn Race was among the powerful Races, capable of existing independently in the cruel Universe.
But after Xi Luo Duo's demise, the Gold Horn Race's situation took a sharp turn for the worse, and its strength fell into the ranks of ordinary Races. Without relying on a Pinnacle Race or joining an Alliance force, it would be difficult to survive.
The Gold Horn Race's choice was to attach itself to the Human Race, joining the Hong Alliance with the Human Race as its core, to obtain the Human Race's protection and thus gain a living environment.
...
Eight days later.
On a mineral planet over a hundred million kilometers away from Takuer Star in the Purple Bee Starfield of Yuan Chen Universe Country.
Whoosh!
An f-class spaceship arrived at the mineral planet. With a "hiss," the hatch opened, and seven Gold Horn Race members, all with greenish skin and vertical golden marks on their foreheads, emerged from the spaceship.
The Gold Horn Race members waited for a while. Upon seeing Ender emerge from the Shadow Dragon with Mullie, the Elder leading them bowed slightly and said, "Elder Rient of the Gold Horn Race Wolf Department, leading his team, greets Your Highness, Human Supervisor Envoy Ender."
"Elder Rient, there's no need to be so polite." Ender smiled. "Come with me, we'll discuss the action plan."
After the few of them put away their spaceships, Ender led them into the Shadow Dragon. Although the Shadow Dragon was a Small spaceship, its public lounge area was spacious enough for them to hold their meeting inside.
"Is this an f-class spaceship?" After entering the Shadow Dragon, a Gold Horn Race Immortal transmitted, "As expected of a peerless Genius of the Human Race, to be able to afford an f-class spaceship."
"It's not just an f-class spaceship," another Gold Horn Race member said. "I haven't seen the main material of this spaceship before; it has a hot, stimulating smell."
"It's f-grade alloy, and it's the Human Race's unique f-grade top-tier Purgatory Alloy," Elder Rient, who was leading them, transmitted. "Many properties of this f-grade alloy are no worse than G-level metal."
Upon hearing Elder Rient's words, the three Military Lord-level Immortals were all surprised, "F-grade top-tier alloy! How rich!"
As an affiliated ordinary Race, the Gold Horn Race is relatively short on resources. F-grade spaceships are usually only equipped for King Immortal. Compared to the Human Race, where any ordinary Marquis-level can purchase and build one, the difference is not small.
"Alright, quiet down," the High Stage Marquis-level Immortal transmitted at this moment. "The meeting is about to begin. Don't displease His Highness Ender."
"Yes." The High Stage Marquis-level Immortal's voice was quite imposing, immediately silencing the three Military Lord-level Immortals.
After everyone sat down in the lounge, Ender looked around at everyone. Here were his guard Mullie, the Ninth Army Corps Commander Marquis Jiaosu, and the seven Gold Horn Race members.
He then began, "Your mission in this operation is very simple: to kill the Pinnacle Marquis-level Immortal Aba Du Takuer."
As Ender spoke, he gently raised his hand, and several light screens appeared before everyone, clearly displaying Aba Du's appearance and various information.
"You must remember," Ender emphasized, "Once this operation begins, you must activate the Virtual Universe Network's synchronized transmission live broadcast function."
Synchronized transmission can instantly capture and record the scenes of a battle and transmit them synchronously to the Virtual Universe Network.
Because this kind of transmission is primarily controlled by the "Virtual Universe System," it is impossible to falsify. Detailed processes for such missions, and so on, must be done via synchronized transmission.
"Yes." The seven Gold Horn Race Immortal nodded.
"Very good." Ender nodded slightly, and with a slight thought, "According to the latest intelligence I've received, Aba Du is still on Takuer Star. We'll depart now."
As his voice fell, a light screen appeared at the end of the lounge, displaying twenty images, each representing a commander from the First to Twentieth Armies of the Ninth Army Corps.
Looking at the twenty-one images on the light screen, Ender said coldly, "Ninth Army Corps, target Takuer Star! Depart!" "Yes!"
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
In the light screen, the commanders nodded in agreement.
Boom!
Amidst a roar, the Shadow Dragon first transformed into a streak of light and soared into the sky. Then, twenty interstellar warships, each over ten thousand meters long, slowly levitated and took flight. Their speed then increased rapidly, eventually also turning into streaks of light and flying into the Universe.
...
Purple Bee Starfield, Takuer Star.
The Takuer Family can be said to be the largest Family in the Purple Bee Starfield; even the Purple Bee Royal Family is somewhat inferior, as the latter's emperor is only an Military Lord-level Immortal High Stage in strength.
As the ancestral planet of the Purple Bee Starfield's largest Family, Takuer Star is naturally very prosperous, with a resident population exceeding ten billion and tens of thousands of spaceships coming and going daily.
Buzz!
Just as Takuer Star was immersed in its prosperity, tens of thousands of kilometers outside the busy spaceport, space rippled faintly.
A shuttle-shaped dark red spaceship suddenly appeared, and then, with a "whoosh," it headed towards Takuer Star.
Without any hindrance, this dark red spaceship, as if in an unmanned territory, did not trigger any alarms from the planet's monitoring and defense System. It easily broke through the planet's atmosphere.
Whoosh!
The dark red spaceship quickly sailed towards the Takuer Family estate, which resembled a colossal city.
"According to the latest intelligence, Aba Du is still in the Takuer Family estate." In the Shadow Dragon spaceship's lounge, Ender said to Elder Rient of the Gold Horn Race, "Your mission is to kill him. You must not let him escape using Divine Kingdom teleportation, and you must begin the Virtual Universe Network synchronized transmission live broadcast once the operation begins."
Elder Rient nodded and replied, "Your Highness, rest assured, we will not give the target a chance to escape."
"Please rest assured, Your Highness." The Gold Horn Race Immortal also nodded.
"Then I'll leave it to you all." Ender nodded slightly, then said solemnly, "Operation begins!"
At this very moment, the Shadow Dragon arrived above the vast, prosperous city-like Takuer Family estate. The hatch opened with a "click," and the Gold Horn Race Immortals instantly flew out.
...
Takuer Star Estate.
Here, there are endless palaces and tall buildings. The people of the Takuer Family enjoy emperor-like treatment here, envied by countless others.
At the center of the estate is a mountain over three thousand meters high, with beautiful palaces built against it, winding from the foot of the mountain like a coiled snake all the way to the summit, perfectly integrated with the elegant mountain.
Ender sighed softly, "The scenery is good, but unfortunately, it's about to be destroyed."
"If Your Highness likes it, after this operation concludes, I will personally buy it and present it to Your Highness," Marquis Jiaosu's gentle voice sounded.
"That's not necessary." Ender smiled and shook his head. "I'm a rather uninteresting person. 90% of my life is spent Cultivating, and I expect it will continue to be so."
Marquis Jiaosu praised softly upon hearing this, "No wonder Your Highness has achieved so much. Besides your astonishing Talent, diligent Cultivation is also an important factor."
"Haha, Marquis Jiaosu, you flatter me." Ender chuckled, then changed the subject, "Elder Rient and the others have found Aba Du."
...
Boom!
Vast Immortal Divine Power slammed down, and dark space cracks spread like a web. The terrifying power shattered the surrounding space, and the beautiful mountain buildings were torn apart as space shattered, falling into fragments of space.
"Who is it?!"
In the dark, chaotic space full of countless tiny cracks, a crimson figure burst out from the spatial turbulence. It was Aba Du Takuer, the Ancestor of the Takuer Family, a Pinnacle Marquis-level Immortal!
At this moment, Aba Du was somewhat disheveled. The sudden attack had caused some damage to his Divine Body, but fortunately, as a Marquis-level Immortal, he possessed an Immortal Body, and his Divine Body instantly reformed after being damaged.
Whoosh!
At this moment, a Gold Horn Race member at the Pinnacle Stage Military Lord-level Immortal flew over, wielding several golden longswords formed from a sixth-tier Spirit Weapon, which, imbued with terrifying power, tore through space and struck Aba Du.
Seeing that the newcomer's aura was not strong, merely an Pinnacle Stage Military Lord-level Immortal, Aba Du roared ferociously, "A mere Military Lord-level Immortal dares to provoke me, a Marquis-level Immortal? You're truly courting death!"
Aba Du blocked the assault of the several golden longswords, but then saw another person charging over. From the sensed aura, it was still an Pinnacle Stage Military Lord-level Immortal Immortal.
"Hmph! Two Pinnacle Stage Military Lord-level Immortals!" Aba Du snorted coldly. "Don't think that numbers guarantee victory. How can two Military Lord-level Immortals deal with me, a Marquis-level Immortal?"
"You…" Aba Du was about to say more when his expression suddenly changed, as he sensed an even stronger aura, one that far surpassed his own.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Another five Immortals appeared in succession. Among them, two had auras stronger than his, two had auras comparable to his, and only the remaining three were weaker than him.
Looking at the seven Immortals surrounding him, Aba Du felt a surge of panic. "One Pinnacle-stage Marquis! One High Stage Marquis-level! Two Pinnacle Marquis-level Immortals! Three Pinnacle Stage Military Lord-level Immortals!"
"May I ask which faction you Immortal belong to? I, Aba Du Takuer, am a good friend of Marquis Tian Yi of the Lorgar Tribe."
Aba Du had no idea when he had provoked so many powerful individuals. If he had known so many Marquis-level powerhouses were coming for him, he would have long since escaped via Divine Kingdom teleportation, instead of spouting threats here.
Now, all he could do was reveal his backing, hoping that these seven Immortals would spare him for the sake of the Lorgar Tribe.
A Gold Horn Race Pinnacle Marquis-level Immortal said in a deep voice, "We don't care about the Lorgar Tribe. We are here to kill you on the orders of the Virtual Universe Company."
"On the orders of the Virtual Universe Company?"
Aba Du's expression froze, then turned to horror. He never expected that his secretly done deeds would be known by the Virtual Universe Company.
"I am a good friend of Marquis Tian Yi of the Lorgar Tribe! You…"
Aba Du roared loudly, while boundless light bloomed from his body, and a Space Law fluctuation appeared. This was an attempt to open a spatial passage for Divine Kingdom teleportation to escape.
Boom!
But just as light bloomed from Aba Du's body, three attacks carrying terrifying power struck, directly shattering his Divine Body. The surrounding space was also shattered by this terrifying power, causing his attempt to open a spatial passage to fail!
"No!"
