“What’s going on here?!” Xia Fei stormed into the command deck and asked.

“Not too sure. The spatial array suddenly stopped working and threw us out of the track,” Xia Guanghai, who was operating the warship, replied.

“Immediately check for damage and confirm out current location,” Xia Fei ordered.

The spatial arrays were like lines of high-speed railroads. Right now, it was akin to a train that had suddenly gotten derailed, throwing the Skywing warship into a completely unknown location!

It was simply unimaginable for such an extremely refined track, like a spatial array, to have such a serious incident. It was already extraordinarily lucky that the Skywing warship hadn’t been torn apart by the spatial pressure.

Leaving the command deck, Xia Fei found a quiet place to take out the Jade Sunset Pearl and contact White Haze.

After several days of not seeing each other, White Haze had gotten much older. Xia Fei explained the situation to White Haze, who was not all that surprised. “I already know. All of the spatial arrays in the Alpha Universe have stopped working! I reported this matter to my superiors, but I haven’t received any reply yet.

“The spatial arrays were built according to the designs from Annihilators, and there hasn’t been a single incident with them for eons, so this incident must be man-made! Luckily, Alpha’s arrays have counter protective measures. It’s also very fortunate that none of you were injured.”

“Man-made!” Xia Fei was stunned, and then he urgently requested, “I don’t care what the reason is; just tell me how I can reactivate the arrays!”

White Haze shook his head helplessly. “This incident is unprecedented. I estimate that it will take several days for my superiors to investigate the matter thoroughly.”

“Several days?!” Xia Fei’s eyes erupted with flames!

He had already taken the most elite Skywings with him, and the defense of the Law Realm relied entirely on Oro’s men. Moreover, Xia Fei had not finished setting up his soul array. If the Dark Spiritualists attacked at this time, the consequences would be unthinkable!

“Inform as soon as anything new comes up!”

*Pa!*

Xia Fei shut off the screen and returned to the command deck. The Skywings saw his glum expression and knew that things were bad, so their faces turned grim, too.

“Report the situation,” said Xia Fei sternly.

“The damage to the warship isn’t serious, with basic engine power stable at 55%,” Xia Guanghai replied.

“How far are we from base?” Xia Fei asked.

“At our current speed, we will need fourteen days to get back if we don’t use any spatial arrays,” Xia Guanghai replied.

“Fourteen days!” Xia Fei went pale. “If we really take fourteen days to get back, Oro and the entire Law Realm will all be destroyed by then!”

The Skywing wolves were stunned!

Xia Gucheng frowned. “Can we not use the spatial array?”

Xia Fei nodded. “Don’t count on it.”

Everyone inhaled. The current situation was extremely dire!

After striking at the Undercurrent, the Dark Spiritualists would move against the Law Realm!

Xia Fei went up to the screen, his fingers flying across it.

He pulled up the starmap and pointed at a place called Alexandria Harbor on the screen. “Set course for this place.”

Xia Guanghai asked in confusion, “Why are we going there? We should just head straight home.”

Xia Fei replied, “This warship only has 55% engine power left. By the time we get back, everything will be over! We have to dock here and switch to a faster ship.

“Alexandria is a relay spaceport, so there may not be warships for sale,” Xia Guanghai looked at the info on the screen and said.

“If there’s none for sale, we’ll just steal one!” Xia Fei said grimly.

…

The warship prepared to anchor at Alexandria Harbor.

Xia Fei returned to his room, exhaled, and then made a video-call to Oro back at the base.

Oro, in black armor, was standing in the command center at the top floor of the base.

“Oro!” Xia Fei shouted.

“Is there a problem?”

Xia Fei replied, “A matter came up, and we might arrive a bit late.”

Oro smiled and replied breezily, “Understood.”

Xia Fei swallowed and said no more.

He had worked with Oro for so long that the two of them had a mental connection. Xia Fei needed only to say one thing for Oro to understand immediately what he wanted.

It was very quiet.

Suffocatingly quiet!

Imitating Xia Fei, Oro lit a cigarette, but as he still was not used to the thick odor of tobacco, he scratched his throat.

This bad habit of Xia Fei had infected many other people, with the earliest being Fuchen. Now, even Oro had picked up smoking.

“No need to be nervous.” Oro pointed behind at two absurdly large golden lions.

“This is Saleh, and next to him is Figaro! They’re my brothers. Together, we are the Three Emperors of the Lionheart Clan!”

Xia Fei nodded in greeting. Saleh and Figaro were supposed to be protecting the main base of the Lionheart Clan, but after receiving the mission to protect the Cosmic Gate, Oro had ordered them to the front line.

The holographic camera swept through the command center, and Xia Fei found that almost every clan and species in the Law Realm that one could think of had a leader present in the command center!

Outside the command center were presumably even more nameless warriors!

The Law Realm had suffered devastating losses in the last war with the Inverse. This was its last reserve!

No one said anything, and the command center was quiet.

However, the eyes of every warrior shone with determination!

“The Law Realm can’t always rely on you Skywings. It’s time for us to share some of the burden. Relax. As long as we’re around, the Law Realm will be around,” Oro said in a joking tone.

“Stay safe,” Xia Fei said sternly.

“Stay safe,” Oro returned.

When Xia Fei turned the screen off, his eyes were red.

Radix took a deep breath. “The difference in strength is too great. Oro is planning to use wave tactics, using lives to fill the gap!”

…

*Whoosh!*

The Skywing warship docked at the Alexandria Spaceport. There were no safety inspections or even a port official to report to.

The Skywings disembarked from the warship and looked around.

Alexandria Harbor, which was located at the edge of Alpha, was not exactly thriving. Twenty-some ships were docked at the vast platform, and they were all sparsely scattered, with most of them being shipping vessels.

“Planetary Shipyard’s Sirius-class ship! That’s the one!” Xia Fei pointed.

The Sirius class was a cruiser yacht and had few weapons on board. From a distance, it appeared like a cicada.

As it was a luxury yacht, it was equipped with two excellent warp engines and was quite agile. It was even faster than the Skywing Clan’s warship.

After all, a warship was weighed down by its armor and weapons systems. While these systems were great in battle, they slowed down the ship.

The Skywing wolves immediately surrounded the ship. Xia Fei ordered, “Empty the ship!”

At this moment, the people aboard this ship just so happened to open the cabin door, coming out to see what Xia Fei’s group was up to.

*Whoosh~*

Xia Guanghai rushed up, grabbed that person, and threw them out! He shouted the usual slogan, “The Skywings are on business! Uninvolved people should stay away!”

*Whoosh!*

The Skywing wolves rushed in, and in only a few seconds, the ten-some people on the ship had been thrown out.

These people looked frightened and appeared to be dazed. The Skywings were vicious and armed, clearly not people to be messed with.

The port guards, who saw that things were going bad, immediately hid themselves, watching from their hiding spots.

“Are you robbing us?!” a phoenix-eyed woman worked up the courage to shout.

“Yes, it’s a robbery!” Xia Geng replied very tersely. He was these wolves’ search specialist, and while he was normally quite docile, who could worry about such stuff at a time like this?!

Xia Fei glanced over at the ship. This ship was clearly a yacht used by rich people for their excursions, as it was decorated in the most ostentatious manner.

“Xia Guanghai, take your people and remove all these useless things! The rest of you, come with me!”

The Skywings split into two groups, with one following Xia Guanghai in dismantling parts of the ship.

The statues in the reception, the marble bathtub, and other such things were flung out as quickly as the Skywings could! Not even the carpet was left intact.

The people, whose ship was being robbed, could only stare in shock. The speed of the Skywings was truly shocking!

It had taken one year to outfit the yacht, but the Skywings had removed it all in two minutes!

The sight of the valuable ornaments, the high-class sofas, and the ice cream machine shattering across the ground, as they were thrown out, had their hearts aching.

*Rumble!*

There was the sound of an explosion as Xia Fei used the Fiend Lock to slice apart two passenger ships, taking only their engines!

“Is there time?” Xia Gucheng understood that Xia Fei was planning to modify the yacht by adding two engines, making it a super-fast ship with four engines!

“Grand Ancestor, don’t forget that we Skywings became famous because of our speed!” Xia Fei shouted.

Yes, the Skywings were famous for their speed!

*Whoosh!*

The wolves moved about, zooming around like rays of light as they worked according to Xia Fei’s orders!

…

Four days later, the Law Realm front line, the entrance to the Cosmic Gate.

A vast sea of people, elites from all across the Law Realm, tightly surrounded the Cosmic Gate. Their number exceeded one million!

Their leaders were the Three Emperors of the Lionheart Clan: Oro, Saleh, and Figaro!

Of the three, only Oro had been accidentally turned by Xia Fei into a human. The other two were enormous lions, standing nearly ten meters tall, their golden manes dancing in the wind!

However, of the three of them, it was the shortest and fairest Oro who was the most savage!

His eyes exploded with light as he brazenly stood in the very center!

In the distance—

The beast flood surged!

Xia Fei’s calculations had been right on the mark. The Dark Spiritualists knew that the Cosmic Gate, unlike the other two gates, would be defended.

Thus, they had brought over the beast flood!

*Rumble!*

Beast tamer Fengyu had been killed by Xia Fei, so this beast horde was in disarray.

Nonetheless, the Dark Spiritualists and the remaining twelve Dragoons used brute strength to control the beast flood, and the exotic beasts were too afraid of the Dragoons to defy them.

It was the most grandiose sight!

One million Law Realm elites versus a horde of one million beasts!

Alas, the Dark Spiritualists did not just have numerous elite warriors; they also had the twelve Dragoons and Nan Shazi, making a total of thirteen Annihilators! Their strength was far above that of the Law Realm.

At present, all the Founder-tier experts of the Law Realm put together did not exceed three hundred, whereas the Dark Spiritualists had at least several thousand!

Besides their own men, the Dark Spiritualists had vassals!

Many warrior clans of the Alpha Universe had thrown their lot in with the Dark Spiritualists when they saw the situation turning sour.

The Dark Spiritualists had used small forces to assault the Undercurrent and Torrent, but this time, they had mobilized everything, bearing an immense hatred for the Skywings and Xia Fei!

“There are so many of them! They plan to overwhelm us!” Figaro said as he glared.
